                                   ARTICLE II

                            Conveyance of Receivables

         SECTION 2.1.      Conveyance of Receivables.

                  In consideration of the Issuer's delivery to or upon the order
of the Depositor on the Closing Date of the Notes and the other amounts to be
distributed from time to time to the order of the Depositor in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, the Depositor does hereby sell, transfer, assign,
set over and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse, all right, title
and interest of the Depositor in and to:

         (a)      the Receivables and all moneys received thereon after the
Cutoff Date;

         (b)      an assignment of the security interests in the Financed
Vehicles granted by Obligors pursuant to the Receivables and any other interest
of the Originator or the Depositor in such Financed Vehicles;

         (c)      any proceeds and the right to receive proceeds with respect to
the Receivables from claims on any physical damage, credit life or disability
insurance policies covering Financed Vehicles or Obligors and any proceeds from
the liquidation of the Receivables;

                                       20

<PAGE>

         (d)      the right to cause the related Dealer or Third-Party Lender to
repurchase Receivables pursuant to a Dealer Agreement or an Auto Loan Purchase
and Sale Agreement, respectively, as a result of a breach of representation or
warranty in the related Dealer Agreement or Auto Loan Purchase and Sale
Agreement, respectively;

         (e)      all rights, if any, to refunds for the costs of Service
Contracts on the related Financed Vehicles;

         (f)      the related Receivables Files;

         (g)      all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in its rights
and benefits, but none of its obligations or burdens, under the Purchase
Agreement, including the Depositor's rights under the Purchase Agreement, to
enforce the delivery requirements, representations and warranties and the cure
and repurchase obligations of Triad under the Purchase Agreement; and

         (h)      the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.

                  It is the intention of the Depositor that the transfer and
assignment contemplated by this Agreement constitutes a sale of the Receivables
and other Trust Property from the Depositor to the Issuer and the beneficial
interest in and title to the Receivables and the other Trust Property will not
be part of the Depositor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy
petition by or against the Depositor under any bankruptcy law. In the event
that, notwithstanding the intent of the Depositor, the transfer and assignment
contemplated hereby is held by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a
sale, this Agreement will constitute a grant of a security interest in the
property referred to in this Section for the benefit of the Noteholders and the
Insurer.

         SECTION 2.2.      [Reserved].

         SECTION 2.3.      Further Encumbrance of Trust Property.

         (a)      Immediately upon the conveyance to the Trust by the Depositor
of the Trust Property, all right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to
such item of Trust Property will terminate, and all such right, title and
interest will vest in the Trust, in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the
Statutory Trust Statute.

         (b)      Immediately upon the vesting of the Trust Property in the
Trust, the Trust will have the sole right to pledge or otherwise encumber such
Trust Property. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Trust will grant a security
interest in the Trust Property to the Indenture Trustee securing the repayment
of the Notes. The Certificates will represent the beneficial ownership interest
in the Trust Property, and the Certificateholders will be entitled to receive
distributions with respect thereto as set forth herein.

         (c)      Following the payment in full of the Notes and the release and
discharge of the Indenture, all covenants of the Issuer under Article III of the
Indenture will, until payment in full of the Certificates, remain as covenants
of the Issuer for the benefit of the Certificateholders, enforceable by the
Certificateholders to the same extent as such covenants were enforceable by the
Noteholders prior to the discharge of the Indenture. Any rights of the Indenture
Trustee under Article III of the Indenture, following the discharge of the
Indenture, will vest in Certificateholders.

                                       21

<PAGE>

         (d)      The Indenture Trustee will, at such time as there are no
Securities outstanding and all sums due to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the
Indenture and this Agreement have been paid, release any remaining portion of
the Trust Property to the Certificateholder.

                                  ARTICLE III

                                 The Receivables

         SECTION 3.1.      Representations and Warranties

                  The Depositor hereby conveys its rights, title and interest in
and to the representations and warranties made in respect of the Receivables
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and this Agreement.

         SECTION 3.2.      Repurchase upon Breach of Representations and
Warranties.

         (a)      The Depositor, the Servicer, the Insurer, the Indenture
Trustee or the Trust, as the case may be, will inform the other parties to this
Agreement and Triad promptly, by notice in writing, upon the discovery of any
breach of the representations and warranties referenced in Section 3.1 and in
Schedule B hereto. As of the last day of the second (or, if Triad so elects, the
first) month following the discovery by Triad or receipt by Triad of notice of
such breach, unless such breach is cured by such date, Triad will repurchase any
Receivable in which the interests of the Noteholders or the Insurer are
materially and adversely affected by any such breach as of such date. The
"second month" will mean the month following the month in which discovery occurs
or notice is given, and the "first month" will mean the month in which discovery
occurs or notice is given. In consideration of and simultaneously with the
repurchase of the Receivable, Triad will remit to the Collection Account the
Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 5.6 and the Issuer will
execute such assignments and other documents reasonably requested by such person
in order to effect such repurchase. The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders with respect to a breach of
representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.1 and the agreement
contained in this Section will be the repurchase of Receivables pursuant to this
Section, subject to the conditions contained herein or to enforce the obligation
of Triad to repurchase such Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee will have a duty to conduct
any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any conditions requiring
the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section.

                  In addition to the foregoing and notwithstanding whether the
related Receivable has been purchased by Triad, Triad will indemnify the Trust,
the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, and the officers, directors, agents
and employees thereof, the Insurer, and the Noteholders against all costs,
expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them as
a result of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to
such breach.

         (b)      Pursuant to Section 2.1, the Depositor conveyed to the Trust
all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in its rights and benefits, but
none of its obligations or burdens, under the Purchase Agreement including the
Depositor's rights under the Purchase Agreement to enforce the delivery
requirements, representations and warranties, indemnities and the cure or
repurchase

                                       22

<PAGE>

obligations of Triad thereunder. The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to
the Trust that such assignment is valid and enforceable against the Depositor.

         SECTION 3.3.      Custody of Receivables Files.

         (a)      In connection with the sale, transfer and assignment of the
Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property to the Trust pursuant to this
Agreement, the Indenture Trustee hereby revocably appoints the Custodian, and
the Custodian hereby accepts such appointment, to act as the agent of the
Indenture Trustee as custodian of the following documents or instruments in its
possession or in the possession of third party vendors on behalf of the
Custodian which will be delivered to the Custodian as agent of the Indenture
Trustee on or before the Closing Date (with respect to each Receivable):

                  (i)      the fully executed original of the Receivable
         (together with any agreements modifying the Receivable, including any
         extension agreements);

                  (ii)     the original certificate of title (when received)
         indicating that the Financed Vehicle is owned by the Obligor and
         subject to the interest of Triad as first lienholder or secured party
         (including any Lien Certificate received by Triad), or, if such
         original certificate of title has not yet been received, a copy of the
         application therefor, showing Triad as secured party and otherwise such
         related documents, if any, that Triad keeps on file in accordance with
         its customary procedures; and

                  (iii)    in connection with Receivable Files pertaining to
         retail installment sale contracts, the original credit application, or
         a copy thereof.

         (b)      Upon payment in full of any Receivable, the Servicer will
notify the Custodian pursuant to a certificate of an officer of the Servicer
(which certificate will include a statement to the effect that all amounts
received in connection with such payments which are required to be deposited in
the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.1 have been so deposited) and will
request delivery of the Receivable File to the Servicer. From time to time as
appropriate for servicing and enforcing any Receivable, the Custodian will, upon
written request of an officer of the Servicer and delivery to the Custodian of a
receipt signed by such officer, cause the related Receivable File to be released
to the Servicer. The Servicer's receipt of a Receivable File will obligate the
Servicer to return the Receivable File to the Custodian when its need by the
Servicer has ceased unless the Receivable is repurchased as described in Section
3.2 or 4.7.

         (c)      The Custodian, or its third-party vendor, will hold the
Receivable Files on behalf of the Indenture Trustee and will maintain such
accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each
Receivable File as will enable the Indenture Trustee to comply with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. The Custodian will maintain the Receivable
Files at (i) its office located at 7711 Center Avenue, Suite 100, Huntington
Beach, California 92647, (ii) with a third-party service provider identified on
Schedule D hereto, as it may be modified from time to time by the Custodian with
the consent of the Insurer, which will not be unreasonably withheld, or (iii)
subject to the prior written consent of the Insurer, so long as no Insurer
Default has occurred and is continuing, at such other office as will from time
to time be identified to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer. Each Receivable
will be identified on the books and records of the Custodian in a manner that
(i) indicates that the Receivables are held by the Custodian on behalf of the
Indenture Trustee and (ii) is otherwise necessary, as reasonably determined by
the Custodian. The Custodian will conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic
physical inspections of the Receivable Files held by

                                       23

<PAGE>

it, and of the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner
as will enable the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Custodian to verify
the accuracy of the Custodian's inventory and recordkeeping. Such inspections
will be conducted at such times, in such manner and by such persons including
independent accountants, as the Insurer or the Indenture Trustee may reasonably
request and the cost of such inspections will be borne directly by the Custodian
and not by the Indenture Trustee, but such inspections are not to take place
more than once per year. The Custodian will promptly report to the Insurer and
the Indenture Trustee any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and
maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and
promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Upon request, the
Custodian will, at the expense of the party making such request, make copies or
other electronic file records (e.g., diskettes, CDs, etc.) (the "Copies") of the
Receivable Files and will deliver such Copies to the Indenture Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee will hold such Copies on behalf of the Noteholders.

         (d)      The Custodian will, subject only to the Custodian's security
requirements applicable to its own employees having access to similar records
held by the Custodian, which requirements will be consistent with the practices
of an institution that maintains custody of Receivable Files for its own
account, and at such times as may be reasonably imposed by the Custodian, permit
only the Insurer and the Indenture Trustee or their duly authorized
representatives, attorneys or auditors to inspect the Receivable Files and the
related accounts, records, and computer systems maintained by the Custodian
pursuant hereto at such times as the Insurer or the Indenture Trustee may
reasonably request.

         (e)      The Custodian will be deemed to have received proper
instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written
instructions signed by a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee. Such
instructions may be general or specific in terms. The Indenture Trustee will
provide a copy of any such instructions to the Insurer.

         (f)      The Custodian will indemnify the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Backup Servicer, the Insurer, the Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee for
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damage, payments, costs or
expenses of any kind whatsoever (including the fees and expenses of counsel)
that may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against such Persons and their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and successors and
assigns as the result of any act or omission in any way relating to the
maintenance and custody by the Custodian or third-party vendor of the Receivable
Files; provided, however, that the Custodian will not be liable for any portion
of any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, payments or costs or
expenses due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer or the Indenture
Trustee or the officers, directors, employees and agents thereof. In no event
will the Custodian be liable to any third party for acts or omissions of the
Custodian.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                   Administration and Servicing of Receivables

         SECTION 4.1.      Duties of the Servicer

         (a)      The Servicer is hereby authorized to act as agent for the
Trust and in such capacity will manage, service, administer and make collections
on the Receivables, and perform the other actions required by the Servicer under
this Agreement. The Servicer agrees that its servicing of the

                                       24

<PAGE>

Receivables will be carried out in accordance with customary and usual
procedures of institutions which service motor vehicle retail installment sales
contracts and, to the extent more exacting, the degree of skill and attention
that the Servicer exercises from time to time with respect to all comparable
motor vehicle receivables that it services for itself or others. In performing
such duties, so long as Triad is the Servicer, it will substantially comply with
the policies and procedures described on Schedule C, as such policies and
procedures may be updated from time to time. The Servicer's duties will include
collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on
the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to
Obligors, reporting any required tax information to Obligors, monitoring the
collateral, complying with the terms of the Lockbox Agreement, accounting for
collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Indenture
Trustee and the Insurer with respect to distributions, and performing the other
duties specified herein.

         (b)      The Servicer will also administer and enforce all rights and
responsibilities of the holder of the Receivables provided for in the Dealer
Agreements and Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreements (and will maintain
possession of the Dealer Agreements and Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreements,
to the extent it is necessary to do so), the Dealer Assignments, the Third-Party
Lender Assignments and the Insurance Policies, to the extent that such Dealer
Agreements, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreements, Dealer Assignments,
Third-Party Lender Assignments and Insurance Policies relate to the Receivables,
the Financed Vehicles or the Obligors. To the extent consistent with the
standards, policies and procedures otherwise required hereby, the Servicer will
follow its customary standards, policies, and procedures and will have full
power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with
such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem
necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust to execute and deliver,
on behalf of the Trust, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation,
or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable
instruments, with respect to the Receivables and with respect to the Financed
Vehicles; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer
will not, except pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction,
release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount under any Receivable or
waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of any Receivable from the Obligor
except in accordance with the Servicer's customary practices.

         (c)      The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name
or in the name of the Trust, a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable pursuant
to Section 4.3 or to commence or participate in any other legal proceeding
(including a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, an
Obligor or a Financed Vehicle. If the Servicer commences or participates in such
a legal proceeding in its own name, the Trust will thereupon be deemed to have
automatically assigned such Receivable to the Servicer solely for purposes of
commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or claimant, and
the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Trust to execute and deliver in
the Servicer's name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses,
affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such
proceeding. The Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee will furnish the
Servicer with any limited powers of attorney and other documents which the
Servicer may reasonably request and which the Servicer deems necessary or
appropriate and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary or
appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative
duties under this Agreement.

                                       25

<PAGE>

         SECTION 4.2.      Collection of Receivable Payments; Modifications of
Receivables; Lockbox Agreement.

         (a)      Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures
required by this Agreement, the Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect
all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and
when the same will become due, and will follow such collection procedures as it
follows with respect to all comparable motor vehicle receivables that it
services for itself or others and otherwise act with respect to the Receivables,
the Dealer Agreements, the Dealer Assignments, the Auto Loan Purchase and Sale
Agreements, the Third-Party Lender Assignments, the Insurance Policies and the
Other Conveyed Property in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of
the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the Trust with respect
thereto. The Servicer is authorized in its discretion to waive any prepayment
charge, late payment charge or any other similar fees that may be collected in
the ordinary course of servicing any Receivable.

         (b)      The Servicer may at any time agree to a modification or
amendment of a Receivable (i) in order to change the Obligor's regular due date
in accordance with its servicing policies and procedures, (ii) in order to
re-amortize the Scheduled Receivables Payments on the Receivable following a
partial prepayment of principal or (iii) as may be required by law, in
accordance with its customary procedures if the Servicer believes in good faith
that such extension, modification or amendment is necessary to avoid a default
on such Receivable, will maximize the amount to be received by the Trust with
respect to such Receivable, and is otherwise in the best interests of the Trust;
provided, however, that in no event may a Receivable be extended beyond the
Collection Period immediately preceding the last Final Scheduled Distribution
Date.

         (c)      The Servicer may grant payment extensions on, or other
modifications or amendments to, a Receivable (in addition to those modifications
permitted by Section 4.2(b)) in accordance with its customary procedures if the
Servicer believes in good faith that such extension, modification or amendment
is necessary to avoid a default on such Receivable, will maximize the amount to
be received by the Trust with respect to such Receivable, and is otherwise in
the best interests of the Trust; provided, however, that:

                  (i)      The aggregate period of all extensions on a
         Receivable does not exceed eight months;

                  (ii)     In no event may a Receivable be extended beyond the
         Collection Period immediately preceding the latest Final Scheduled
         Distribution Date;

                  (iii)    The average Monthly Extension Rate for any three
         consecutive Collection Periods does not exceed 4%; and

                  (iv)     The Servicer may not amend or modify a Receivable
         (except as provided in Section 4.2(b) and this Section 4.2(c) or as
         otherwise required by law) without the consent of the Insurer, so long
         as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, or the Majority
         Noteholders (if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing).

                  With respect to Section 4.2(c)(iii), in the event the average
of the Monthly Extension Rates calculated with respect to three consecutive
Collection Periods exceeds 4% (which information will be set forth in the
related Servicer's Certificate), the Servicer will, on the third such Accounting
Date, purchase from the Trust the Receivables with respect to which payment had
been extended

                                       26

<PAGE>

(starting with the Receivables most recently so extended) in an aggregate
Principal Balance equal to the product of (i) the difference between such
average of Monthly Extension Rates and 4% and (ii) the Aggregate Principal
Balance, and pay the related Purchase Amount on the related Determination Date;
provided, however, that in the event the Backup Servicer will be acting as
Servicer hereunder, the foregoing sentence will apply only in respect of
Receivables as to which payments had been extended by such Backup Servicer.

         (d)      The Servicer will use its best efforts to notify or direct
Obligors to make all payments on the Receivables, whether by check or by direct
debit of the Obligor's bank account, to be made directly to one or more Lockbox
Banks pursuant to a Lockbox Agreement. The Servicer will use its best efforts to
notify or direct any Lockbox Bank to deposit all payments on the Receivables in
the Lockbox Account no later than the Business Day after receipt, and to cause
all amounts credited to the Lockbox Account on account of such payments to be
transferred to the Collection Account no later than the second Business Day
after receipt of available funds with respect to such payments. The Lockbox
Account will be a demand deposit account held by the Lockbox Bank.

                  On the Closing Date, the Servicer will deposit or cause to be
deposited in immediately available funds into the Collection Account all amounts
collected with respect to the Receivables from the Cutoff Date to the fourth
(4th) Business Day preceding the Closing Date. As soon as possible thereafter
and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, all amounts collected
with respect to the Receivables from such date to the Closing Date will be
deposited into the Collection Account.

                  Notwithstanding any Lockbox Agreement, or any of the
provisions of this Agreement relating to the Lockbox Agreement, the Servicer
will remain obligated and liable to the Trust, the Indenture Trustee and
Noteholders for servicing and administering the Receivables and the Other
Conveyed Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue thereof; provided, however,
that the foregoing will not apply to any Backup Servicer for so long as a
Lockbox Bank is performing its obligations pursuant to the terms of a Lockbox
Agreement.

                  If the Servicer is terminated, the successor Servicer will
assume all of the rights and obligations of the outgoing Servicer under the
Lockbox Agreement subject to the terms hereof. In such event, the successor
Servicer will be deemed to have assumed all of the outgoing Servicer's interest
therein and to have replaced the outgoing Servicer as a party to each such
Lockbox Agreement to the same extent as if such Lockbox Agreement had been
assigned to the successor Servicer, except that the outgoing Servicer will not
thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations on the part of the outgoing
Servicer to the Lockbox Bank under such Lockbox Agreement. The outgoing Servicer
will, upon request of the Indenture Trustee, but at the expense of the outgoing
Servicer, deliver to the successor Servicer all documents and records relating
to each such Lockbox Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held
by the Lockbox Bank and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and
efficient transfer of any Lockbox Agreement to the successor Servicer. In the
event that the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing) or the Majority Noteholders (if an Insurer Default has occurred and
is continuing) elects to change the identity of the Lockbox Bank, the outgoing
Servicer, at its expense, will cause the Lockbox Bank to deliver, at the
direction of the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default has not occurred) or the
Majority Noteholders (if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) to
the Indenture Trustee or a successor Lockbox Bank, all documents and records
relating to the Receivables and all amounts held (or thereafter received) by the
Lockbox Bank (together with an accounting of such amounts) and

                                       27

<PAGE>

will otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer
of the lockbox arrangements and the Servicer will notify the Obligors to make
payments to the Lockbox established by the successor.

         (e)      The Servicer will remit all payments by or on behalf of the
Obligors received in the form of checks with payment coupons directly by the
Servicer to the Lockbox Bank for deposit into the Collection Account, in either
case, and as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the second Business
Day after receipt thereof. Other payments received by each of the Servicer,
Triad and the Depositor will be deposited into a local servicing account for
processing immediately upon receipt, and then transferred in immediately
available funds to the Lockbox Account for deposit to the Collection Account no
later than the second (2nd) Business Day after receipt of available amounts.

         SECTION 4.3.      Realization upon Receivables.

         (a)      Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures
required by this Agreement, the Servicer will use commercially reasonable
efforts to repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and
liquidate any Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable with respect to which the
Servicer has determined that payments thereunder are not likely to be resumed,
as soon as is practicable after default on such Receivable but in no event later
than the date on which all or more than 10% of a Scheduled Receivables Payment
has become 91 days delinquent; provided, however, that the Servicer may elect
not to repossess a Financed Vehicle within such time period if in its good faith
judgment it determines that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to
such Receivable would be increased by forbearance. The Servicer is authorized to
follow such customary practices and procedures as it will deem necessary or
advisable, consistent with the standard of care required by Section 4.1, which
practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any
recourse to Dealers and Third-Party Lenders, the sale of the related Financed
Vehicle at public or private sale, the submission of claims under an Insurance
Policy and other actions by the Servicer in order to realize upon such a
Receivable. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which
the Financed Vehicle will have suffered damage, the Servicer will not expend
funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such Financed
Vehicle unless it will determine in its discretion that such repair and/or
repossession will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Receivable
by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All amounts received upon
liquidation of a Financed Vehicle will be remitted by the Servicer to the
Collection Account as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the second
Business Day after receipt of available funds thereof. The Servicer will be
entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it in the course of
repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds, as provided
in Section 5.7(b) or out of the cash proceeds of such Financed Vehicle, any
deficiency obtained from the Obligor or any amounts received from the related
Dealer or Third-Party Lender, which amounts in reimbursement may be retained by
the Servicer (and will not be required to be deposited as provided in Section
4.2(e)) to the extent of such expenses. The Servicer will pay on behalf of the
Trust any personal property taxes assessed on repossessed Financed Vehicles. The
Servicer will be entitled to reimbursement of any such tax from Net Liquidation
Proceeds with respect to such Receivable.

         (b)      If the Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to
enforce a Dealer Agreement, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, Dealer
Assignment or Third-Party Lender Assignment, the act of commencement will be
deemed to be an automatic assignment from the Trust to the Servicer of the
rights under such Dealer Agreement, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement,
Dealer Assignment or Third-Party Lender Assignment for purposes of collection
only. If, however, in any

                                       28

<PAGE>

enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not
enforce a Dealer Agreement, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, Dealer
Assignment or Third-Party Lender Assignment on the grounds that it is not a real
party in interest or a Person entitled to enforce the Dealer Agreement, Auto
Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, Dealer Assignment or Third-Party Lender
Assignment, the Owner Trustee and/or the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer's
expense, will take such steps as the Servicer deems reasonably necessary to
enforce the Dealer Agreement, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, Dealer
Assignment or Third-Party Lender Assignment, including bringing suit in its name
or the name of the Trust and the Owner Trustee and/or the Indenture Trustee for
the benefit of the Noteholders. All amounts recovered will be remitted directly
by the Servicer as provided in Section 4.2(e).

         SECTION 4.4.      Insurance.

         (a)      The Servicer will require, in accordance with its customary
servicing policies and procedures, that each Financed Vehicle be insured by the
related Obligor under the Insurance Policies referred to in Paragraph 24 of the
Schedule of Representations and Warranties. Each Receivable requires the Obligor
to maintain such physical loss and damage insurance, naming Triad and its
successors and assigns as additional insureds, and permits the holder of such
Receivable to obtain physical loss and damage insurance at the expense of the
Obligor if the Obligor fails to maintain such insurance. If the Servicer
determines that an Obligor has failed to obtain or maintain a physical loss and
damage Insurance Policy covering the related Financed Vehicle as described in
Paragraph 24 (including during the repossession of such Financed Vehicle) the
Servicer may enforce the rights of the holder of the Receivable under the
Receivable to require the Obligor to obtain such physical loss and damage
insurance in accordance with its customary servicing policies and procedures.
The Servicer may, at its sole option, maintain a vendor's single interest or
other collateral protection insurance policy with respect to all Financed
Vehicles ("Collateral Insurance") which policy by its terms insures against
physical loss and damage in the event any Obligor fails to maintain physical
loss and damage insurance with respect to the related Financed Vehicle. The
parties acknowledge that the Servicer does not now have, nor does it intend to
obtain, Collateral Insurance. All policies of Collateral Insurance will be
endorsed with clauses providing for loss payable to the Servicer. Costs incurred
by the Servicer in maintaining such Collateral Insurance will be paid by the
Servicer.

         (b)      The Servicer may, at its sole option, if an Obligor fails to
obtain or maintain a physical loss and damage Insurance Policy, obtain insurance
with respect to the related Financed Vehicle and advance on behalf of such
Obligor, as required under the terms of the insurance policy, the premiums for
such "force-placed" insurance. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Servicer
does not now have, nor does it intend to obtain, forced-place insurance. All
policies of force-placed insurance will be endorsed with clauses providing for
loss payable to the Servicer. Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining
such force-placed insurance will only be recoverable out of premiums paid by the
Obligors or Net Liquidation Proceeds with respect to the Receivable, as provided
in Section 4.4(c).

                  In connection with any force-placed insurance obtained
hereunder, the Servicer may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by
applicable law, require the Obligors to repay the entire premium to the
Servicer. In no event will the Servicer include the amount of the premium in the
Amount Financed under the Receivable. "Insurance add-on amounts," which are the
premiums charged to Obligors in the event that the Servicer obtains force-placed
insurance, with respect to any Receivable will be treated as a separate
obligation of the Obligor and will not be added to the

                                       29

<PAGE>

Principal Balance of such Receivable, and amounts allocable thereto will not be
available for distribution on the Notes and the Certificates. The Servicer will
retain and separately administer the right to receive payments from Obligors
with respect to insurance add-on amounts or rebates of forced-placed insurance
premiums. If an Obligor makes a payment with respect to a Receivable having
force-placed insurance, but the Servicer is unable to determine whether the
payment is allocable to the Receivable or to the insurance add-on amount, the
payment will be applied first to any unpaid Scheduled Receivables Payments and
then to the insurance add-on amount. Net Liquidation Proceeds on any Receivable
will be used first to pay the Principal Balance and accrued interest on such
Receivable and then to pay the related insurance add-on amount. If an Obligor
under a Receivable with respect to which the Servicer has placed force-placed
insurance fails to make scheduled payments of such insurance add-on amount as
due, and the Servicer has determined that eventual payment of the insurance
add-on amount is unlikely, the Servicer may, but will not be required to,
purchase such Receivable from the Trust for the Purchase Amount on any
subsequent Determination Date. Any such Receivable, and any Receivable with
respect to which the Servicer has placed force-placed insurance which has been
paid in full (excluding any insurance add-on amounts) will be assigned to the
Servicer.

         (c)      The Servicer may sue to enforce or collect upon the Insurance
Policies, in its own name, if possible, or as agent of the Trust. If the
Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to enforce an Insurance Policy,
the act of commencement will be deemed to be an automatic assignment of the
rights of the Trust under such Insurance Policy to the Servicer for purposes of
collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is
held that the Servicer may not enforce an Insurance Policy on the grounds that
it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Insurance
Policy, the Owner Trustee and/or the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer's
expense, will take such steps as the Servicer deems necessary to enforce such
Insurance Policy, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Trust
and the Owner Trustee and/or the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders.

         (d)      The Servicer will cause itself and may cause the Indenture
Trustee to be named as named insured under all policies of Collateral Insurance.

         SECTION 4.5.      Maintenance of Security Interests in Vehicles.

         (a)      Consistent with the policies and procedures required by this
Agreement, the Servicer will take such steps on behalf of the Trust as are
necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each
Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle, including obtaining the execution by
the Obligors and the recording, registering, filing, re-recording, re-filing,
and re-registering of all security agreements, financing statements and
continuation statements as are necessary to maintain the security interest
granted by the Obligors under the respective Receivables. The Indenture Trustee
hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer agrees, to take any and all
steps necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Trust as
necessary because of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other
reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Trust is
insufficient, without a notation on the related Financed Vehicle's certificate
of title, or without fulfilling any additional administrative requirements under
the laws of the state in which the Financed Vehicle is located, to perfect a
security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Trust, the
Servicer agrees that Triad's designation as the secured party on the certificate
of title is in its capacity as Servicer as agent of the Trust.

                                       30

<PAGE>

         (b)      Upon the occurrence of an Insurance Agreement Event of
Default, the Insurer may (so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing) instruct the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer to take or cause to
be taken, or, if an Insurer Default has occurred, upon the occurrence of a
Servicer Termination Event, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer will take or
cause to be taken such action as may, in the opinion of counsel to the
Controlling Party, be necessary to perfect or re-perfect the security interests
in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables in the name of the Trust by
amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles or by such other
reasonable means as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Controlling Party, be
necessary or prudent.

                  Triad hereby agrees to pay all expenses related to such
perfection or reperfection and to take all action necessary therefor. In
addition, prior to the occurrence of an Insurance Agreement Event of Default,
the Controlling Party may instruct the Servicer to take or cause to be taken
such action as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Controlling Party, be
necessary to perfect or re-perfect the security interest in the Financed
Vehicles underlying the Receivables in the name of the Trust, including by
amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles or by such other
reasonable means as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Controlling Party, be
necessary or prudent; provided, however, that if the Controlling Party requests
that the title documents be amended prior to the occurrence of an Insurance
Agreement Event of Default, the out-of-pocket expenses of the Servicer or the
Indenture Trustee in connection with such action will be reimbursed to the
Servicer or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, by the Controlling Party.
Triad hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its attorney-in-fact to execute
certificates of title or any other documents, prepared by the Servicer, in the
name and stead of Triad (it being understood that and agreed that the Indenture
Trustee has no obligation to take such steps with respect to any perfection or
reperfection, except as pursuant to the Basic Documents to which it is a party
and to which Triad has paid all expenses) and the Indenture Trustee hereby
accepts such appointment.

         SECTION 4.6.      Covenants, Representations, and Warranties of
Servicer.

                  By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Servicer
makes the following representations, warranties and covenants on which the
Indenture Trustee relies in accepting the Receivables, on which the Indenture
Trustee relies in authenticating the Notes and on which the Insurer relies in
issuing the Note Policy.

         (a)      The Servicer covenants as follows:

                  (i)      Liens in Force. The Financed Vehicle securing each
         Receivable will not be released in whole or in part from the security
         interest granted by the Receivable, except upon payment in full of the
         Receivable or as otherwise contemplated herein;

                  (ii)     No Impairment. The Servicer will do nothing to impair
         the rights of the Trust or the Noteholders in the Receivables, the
         Dealer Agreements, the Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreements, the
         Dealer Assignments, the Third-Party Lender Assignments, the Insurance
         Policies or the Other Conveyed Property except as otherwise expressly
         provided herein;

                  (iii)    No Amendments. The Servicer will not extend or
         otherwise amend the terms of any Receivable, except in accordance with
         Section 4.2; and

                                       31

<PAGE>

                  (iv)     Restrictions on Liens. The Servicer will not (i)
         create, incur or suffer to exist, or agree to create, incur or suffer
         to exist, or consent to cause or permit in the future (upon the
         happening of a contingency or otherwise) the creation, incurrence or
         existence of any Lien or restriction on transferability of the
         Receivables except for the Lien in favor of the Indenture Trustee for
         the benefit of the Noteholders and Insurer, and the restrictions on
         transferability imposed by this Agreement or (ii) sign or file under
         the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction any financing statement
         which names Triad or the Servicer as a debtor, or sign any security
         agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file such
         financing statement, with respect to the Receivables, except in each
         case any such instrument solely securing the rights and preserving the
         Lien of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders and
         the Insurer.

         (b)      The Servicer represents, warrants and covenants as of the
Closing Date as to itself that the representations and warranties set forth on
the Schedule of Representations attached hereto as Schedule B are true and
correct, provided that such representations and warranties contained therein and
herein will not apply to any entity other than Triad.

         SECTION 4.7.      Purchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Covenant

                  Upon discovery by any of the Servicer, the Insurer, the Trust
or a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee of a breach of any of the
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Sections 4.5(a) or 4.6,
the party discovering such breach will give prompt written notice to the others;
provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice will not affect any
obligation of Triad as Servicer under this Section 4.7. As of the second
Accounting Date following its discovery or receipt of notice of any breach of
any representation, warranty or covenant set forth in Sections 4.5(a) or 4.6
which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or the
Insurer in any Receivable (including any Liquidated Receivable) (or, at Triad's
election, the first Accounting Date so following) or the related Financed
Vehicle, Triad will, unless such breach has been cured in all material respects,
purchase from the Trust the Receivable affected by such breach and, on the
related Determination Date, Triad will pay the related Purchase Amount. It is
understood and agreed that the obligation of Triad to purchase any Receivable
(including any Liquidated Receivable) with respect to which such a breach has
occurred and is continuing will, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the
sole remedy against Triad for such breach available to the Insurer, the
Noteholders, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that
Triad will indemnify the Trust, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer, the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders from and against all costs,
expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them as
a result of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to
such breach. The indemnification provided pursuant to this section will survive
the removal or resignation of the Indenture Trustee and or the Backup Servicer.

         SECTION 4.8.      Total Servicing Fee; Payment of Certain Expenses by
Servicer

                  On each Distribution Date, the Servicer will be entitled to
receive out of the Collection Account the Base Servicing Fee and any
Supplemental Servicing Fee for the related Collection Period (together, the
"Servicing Fee") pursuant to Section 5.7. The Servicer will be required to pay
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this
Agreement (including taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in
connection with distributions and reports made by the Servicer to Noteholders or
the Insurer and, to the extent not provided for

                                       32

<PAGE>

pursuant to Section 5.7, all other fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Owner
Trustee, the Backup Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee, except taxes levied or
assessed against the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the
Indenture Trustee, and claims against the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Backup
Servicer or the Indenture Trustee in respect of indemnification, which taxes and
claims in respect of indemnification against the Trust are expressly stated to
be for the account of Triad). The Servicer will, to the extent not provided for
pursuant to Section 5.7, be liable for the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of
the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Custodian,
the Lockbox Bank (and any fees under the Lockbox Agreement) and the Independent
Accountants except taxes levied or assessed against such parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Servicer is not Triad, a successor to
Triad as Servicer including the Backup Servicer permitted by Section 9.3 will
not be liable for taxes levied or assessed against the Trust or claims against
the Trust in respect of indemnification, or the fees and expenses referred to
above.

         SECTION 4.9.      Servicer's Certificate

                  No later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on each Determination
Date, the Servicer will deliver (facsimile delivery being acceptable; and in the
case of the Servicer's Certificate to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the
Depositor and the Backup Servicer, an e-mail in a computer file, the format of
which will be agreed upon between the Servicer and such parties) to the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer and each
Rating Agency a Servicer's Certificate containing among the other things set
forth in Exhibit B, (i) all information necessary to enable the Indenture
Trustee to give any notice required by Section 6.1 and to make the distributions
required by Section 5.7, (ii) a listing of all Purchased Receivables and
Administrative Receivables purchased as of the related Accounting Date, (iii)
all information necessary to enable the Indenture Trustee to send the statements
to Noteholders and the Insurer required by Section 5.10, (iv) the Delinquency
Rate, Net Loss Rate and Rolling Average Net Loss Ratio for such Determination
Date, and (v) whether to the knowledge of the Servicer an Insurance Agreement
Event of Default, a Spread Cap Event (as defined in the Insurance Agreement) or
a Trigger Event (as defined in the Insurance Agreement) has occurred.
Receivables purchased by the Servicer or by Triad on the related Accounting Date
and each Receivable that became a Liquidated Receivable or that was paid in full
during the related Collection Period will be identified by account number (as
set forth in the Schedule of Receivables).

         SECTION 4.10.     Annual Statement as to Compliance, Notice of Servicer
Termination Event.

         (a)      The Servicer will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner
Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer and each Rating Agency, on or before
April 30 (or 120 days after the end of the Servicer's fiscal year, if other than
December 31) of each year, beginning on April 30, 2004, an Officer's
Certificate, dated as of December 31 (or other applicable date) of such year,
stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding
12-month period (or such other period as has elapsed from the Closing Date to
the date of the first such certificate) and of its performance under this
Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision, and (ii) to such
officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its
obligations under this Agreement throughout such period, or, if there has been a
default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default
known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

         (b)      The Servicer will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner
Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer, and each Rating Agency, promptly
after having obtained knowledge thereof,

                                       33

<PAGE>

but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, written notice in
an Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse
of time, or both, would become a Servicer Termination Event under Section
9.1(a). The Servicer will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee,
the Backup Servicer, the Insurer, the Depositor and each Rating Agency promptly
after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than two (2)
Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer's Certificate of any
event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a
Servicer Termination Event under any other clause of Section 9.1.

         SECTION 4.11.     Annual Independent Accountants' Report.

                  The Servicer will cause a firm of independent certified public
accountants (the "Independent Accountants"), who may also render other services
to the Servicer or to its Affiliates, to deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the
Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer and each Rating Agency, on or
before April 30 (or 120 days after the end of the Servicer's fiscal year, if
other than December 31) of each year, beginning on April 30, 2004 with respect
to the twelve months ended the immediately preceding December 31 (or other
applicable date) (or such other period as has elapsed from the Closing Date to
the date of such certificate), a report addressed to the board of directors of
the Servicer, to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer
and to the Insurer, to the effect that such firm has audited the financial
statements of Triad and issued its report thereon and that such audit (1) was
made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, (2) included
tests relating to automotive loans serviced for others in accordance with the
requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (the
"Program"), to the extent the procedures in such Program are applicable to the
servicing obligations set forth in the Agreement, and (3) except as described in
the report, disclosed no exceptions or errors in the records relating to
automobile and light duty truck loans serviced for others that such firm is
required to report under the Program. Except to the extent otherwise required by
the applicable law, the Servicer is not required to deliver the report hereunder
if Triad is reported solely as a consolidated subsidiary and there are no
separate audits of the books and records of Triad; provided, however, the
Servicer is required to notify the Indenture Trustee in writing that there are
no separate audits of the books and records of Triad and that therefore the
Servicer will not be delivering the report.

         SECTION 4.12.     Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding Receivables

                  The Servicer will upon reasonable prior notice provide to
representatives of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer
and the Insurer reasonable access to the documentation regarding the
Receivables. In each case, such access will be afforded without charge but only
upon reasonable request and during normal business hours. Any expense incident
to the exercise by the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, Backup Servicer or the
Insurer will be borne by the Servicer to the extent such visits and examinations
are not more frequent than once in any twelve-month period, or a Servicer
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing. Nothing in this Section will
affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting
disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the
Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 4.12 as a result of such
obligation will not constitute a breach of this Section 4.12.

                                       34

<PAGE>

         SECTION 4.13.     Reserved

         SECTION 4.14.     Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Policy

                  The Servicer will not be required to maintain an errors and
omissions policy. The Servicer will maintain a fidelity bond of a type and in an
amount customary for servicers engaged in the business of servicing motor
vehicle receivables.

                                   ARTICLE V

                         Trust Accounts; Distributions;
                            Statements to Noteholders

         SECTION 5.1.      Establishment of Trust Accounts.

         (a)      (i) The Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders and
the Insurer, will establish and maintain in its own name one or more Eligible
Deposit Accounts reasonably acceptable to the Insurer (collectively, the
"Collection Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds
deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of
the Noteholders and the Insurer. The Collection Account will initially be
established with the Indenture Trustee.

                  (ii) The Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders, will
establish and maintain in its own name an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Note
Distribution Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds
deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of
the Noteholders and the Insurer. The Note Distribution Account will initially be
established with the Indenture Trustee.

                  (iii) The Servicer will cause the Indenture Trustee to
establish and maintain an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Spread Account") with
the Indenture Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds
deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the Noteholders and the
Insurer.

                  (iv) Funds on deposit in the Collection Account, the Note
Distribution Account (but only to the extent of deposits therein for more than
one Business Day), and the Spread Account (collectively, the "Trust Accounts")
will be invested by the Indenture Trustee (or any custodian with respect to
funds on deposit in any such account) in Eligible Investments selected in
writing by the Servicer (pursuant to standing instructions or otherwise). All
such Eligible Investments will be held by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee
for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Insurer, as applicable. Funds on
deposit in any Trust Account will be invested in Eligible Investments that will
mature so that such funds will be available at the close of business on the
Business Day immediately preceding the following Distribution Date. However, if
each of the Rating Agencies confirms that it would not affect the ratings
assigned to the Notes and the Insurer consents, funds on deposit in the Spread
Account may be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that funds
will be available on the following Distribution Date. All Eligible Investments
will be held to maturity.

         (b)      All investment earnings of moneys deposited in the Trust
Accounts will be deposited (or caused to be deposited) by the Indenture Trustee
in the Collection Account, and any loss resulting from such investments will be
charged to such account. The Servicer will not direct the Indenture

                                       35

<PAGE>

Trustee to make any investment of any funds held in any of the Trust Accounts
unless the security interest granted and perfected in such account will continue
to be perfected in such investment, in either case without any further action by
any Person.

         (c)      The Indenture Trustee will not in any way be held liable by
reason of any insufficiency in any of the Trust Accounts resulting from any loss
on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to
the Indenture Trustee's negligence or bad faith or its failure to make payments
on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial
capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with their
terms.

         (d)      If (i) the Servicer fails to give investment directions in
writing for any funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts to the Indenture Trustee
by 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer and
Indenture Trustee) on any Business Day; or (ii) a Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes have not
been declared due and payable, or, if such Notes will have been declared due and
payable following an Event of Default, amounts collected or receivable from the
Trust Property are being applied as if there had not been such a declaration;
then the Indenture Trustee will, to the fullest extent practicable, invest and
reinvest funds in the Trust Accounts in the investment described in clause (d)
of the definition of Eligible Investments.

         (e)      (i) The Indenture Trustee will possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Trust Accounts and in
all proceeds thereof and all such funds, investments, proceeds and income will
be part of the Owner Trust Estate. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Trust Accounts will be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture
Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Insurer. If, at any time, any
of the Trust Accounts ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture
Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) will within five Business Days (or such
longer period as to which each Rating Agency and the Insurer may consent)
establish a new Trust Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and will transfer
any cash and/or any investments to such new Trust Account. In connection with
the foregoing, the Servicer agrees that, in the event that any of the Trust
Accounts are not accounts with the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer will notify
the Indenture Trustee in writing promptly upon any of such Trust Accounts
ceasing to be an Eligible Deposit Account.

         (ii) With respect to the Trust Account Property, the Indenture Trustee
agrees that:

                           (A)      any Trust Account Property that is held in
                  deposit accounts will be held solely in the Eligible Deposit
                  Accounts; and, except as otherwise provided herein, each such
                  Eligible Deposit Account will be subject to the exclusive
                  custody and control of the Indenture Trustee, and the
                  Indenture Trustee will have sole signature authority with
                  respect thereto;

                           (B)      any Trust Account Property that constitutes
                  Physical Property will be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
                  in accordance with paragraph (a) of the definition of
                  "Delivery" and will be held, pending maturity or disposition,
                  solely by the Indenture Trustee or a securities intermediary
                  (as such term is defined in Section 8-102(14) of the UCC)
                  acting solely for the Indenture Trustee;

                           (C)      any Trust Account Property that is a book-
                  entry security held through the Federal Reserve System
                  pursuant to Federal book-entry regulations will be

                                       36

<PAGE>

                  delivered in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition
                  of "Delivery" and will be maintained by the Indenture Trustee,
                  pending maturity or disposition, through continued book-entry
                  registration of such Trust Account Property as described in
                  such paragraph;

                           (D)     any Trust Account Property that is an
                  "uncertificated security" under Article 8 of the UCC and that
                  is not governed by clause (C) above will be delivered to the
                  Indenture Trustee in accordance with paragraph (c) of the
                  definition of "Delivery" and will be maintained by the
                  Indenture Trustee, pending maturity or disposition, through
                  continued registration of the Indenture Trustee's (or its
                  nominee's) ownership of such security; and

                           (E)     the "securities intermediary's jurisdiction,"
                  for purposes of Section 8-110 of the UCC, shall be the State
                  of New York.

         (f)      The Servicer will have the power, revocable by the Insurer or,
with the consent of the Insurer by the Indenture Trustee with, to instruct the
Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Trust Accounts for
the purpose of permitting the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee to carry out
its respective duties hereunder.

         (g)      The Indenture Trustee acknowledges that, pursuant to the
provisions of the Swap Agreements, the Swap Provider may be required to post
collateral with the Indenture Trustee to secure the Swap Provider's obligations
under the Swap Agreements. The Indenture Trustee agrees to establish and
maintain an Eligible Deposit Account to hold such collateral, if requested to do
so by the Servicer or the Controlling Party. The Indenture Trustee further
agrees to follow such written instructions relating to the administration of,
and transfers from such account, as may be delivered by (i) the Servicer (with
the consent of the Controlling Party) or (ii) the Controlling Party.

         SECTION 5.2.      [Reserved].

         SECTION 5.3.      Certain Reimbursements to the Servicer

                  The Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account with respect to a Collection Period for
amounts previously deposited in the Collection Account but later determined by
the Servicer to have resulted from mistaken deposits or postings or checks
returned for insufficient funds. To extent that such amounts are owed to the
Lockbox Bank, the Servicer will cause such amounts to be returned to the Lockbox
Bank. The amount to be reimbursed hereunder will be paid to the Servicer on the
related Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.7(b)(i) upon certification by
the Servicer of such amounts and the provision of such information to the
Indenture Trustee and the Insurer as may be necessary in the opinion of the
Insurer to verify the accuracy of such certification; provided, however, that
the Servicer must provide such clarification within 12 months of such mistaken
deposit, posting, or returned check. In the event that the Insurer has not
received evidence satisfactory to it of the Servicer's entitlement to
reimbursement pursuant to this Section 5.3, the Insurer will (unless an Insurer
Default has occurred and is continuing) give the Indenture Trustee notice in
writing to such effect, following receipt of which the Indenture Trustee will
not make a distribution to the Servicer in respect of such amount pursuant to
Section 5.7, or if the Servicer prior thereto has been reimbursed pursuant to
Section 5.7, the Indenture Trustee will withhold such amounts from amounts
otherwise distributable to the Servicer on the next succeeding Distribution
Date. The Servicer will additionally be entitled to

                                       37

receive from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to a
Collection Period any amounts paid by Obligors that were collected in the
Lockbox Account but that do not relate to (i) principal and interest payments

Receivable), payments by or on behalf of the Obligor (other than Supplemental
Servicing Fees with respect to such Receivable, to the extent collected) will be
applied to interest and principal in accordance with the Simple Interest Method.

                  All amounts collected that are payable to the Servicer as

         (a)      On or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor will deposit an
amount equal to the Spread Account Initial Deposit into the Spread Account from
the proceeds of the Notes. On each Distribution Date, to the extent of funds
available therefor pursuant to the priority of payments, amounts will be
deposited into the Spread Account in accordance with Section 5.7(b)(xiii) until
the amount on deposit therein is equal to the Spread Account Requirement.

         (b)      In the event that the Servicer's Certificate with respect to
any Determination Date states that there is a Spread Account Draw Amount then on
the related Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw such Spread
Account Draw Amount and deposit such amount into the Collection Account for
distribution in accordance with Section 5.7(b).

         (c)      After considering all required distributions made on a
Distribution Date, amounts on deposit in the Spread Account on that Distribution
Date that are in excess of the Spread Account Requirement for that Distribution
Date will be applied by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with Section
5.7(b)(xi), then 5.7(b)(xiv) through (xvii).

         SECTION 5.6.      Additional Deposits.

         (a)      The Servicer and Triad, as applicable, will deposit or cause

such obligations are due the aggregate Purchase Amount with respect to Purchased
Receivables.

         (b)      The proceeds of any purchase or sale of the assets of the
Trust described in Section 10.1 will be deposited in the Collection Account.

         (c)      On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee will (based
solely on the information contained in the Servicer's Certificate delivered with
respect to the related Determination Date, unless the Insurer has notified the
Indenture Trustee in writing of any errors or deficiencies with respect thereto)
distribute from the Collection Account the Additional Funds Available, if any,

         interest on each

                                       40

<PAGE>

         Class of Class A Notes pro rata on the basis of the amount of accrued
         and unpaid interest due on each Class of Class A Notes.

         priority:

                           (1)      to the holders of the Class A-1 Notes, the
                  total amount paid out on each Distribution Date until the
                  outstanding principal balance of the Class A-1 Notes has been
                  reduced to zero;

                           (2)      to the holders of the Class A-2-A Notes and
                  Class A-2-B Notes, the total amount paid out on each
                  Distribution Date, such amount to be paid pro rata based on
                  the outstanding principal balances of such Classes immediately
                  prior to such distributions until the outstanding principal
                  balance of the Class A-2-A Notes and Class A-2-B Notes has
                  been reduced to zero;

                           (3)      to the holders of the Class A-3 Notes, the
                  total amount paid out on each Distribution Date until the
                  outstanding principal balance of the Class A-3 Notes has been
                  reduced to zero; and

                           (4)      to the holders of the Class A-4 Notes, the
                  total amount paid out on each Distribution Date until the
                  outstanding principal balance of the Class A-4 Notes is
                  reduced to zero.

                  -        From amounts transferred pursuant to section
         5.7(b)(x) and (xvii), to the holders of the Class B Notes, until the
         outstanding principal balance of the Class B Notes is reduced to zero.

provided, that after the acceleration of the Notes following the occurrence of
an Event of Default under the Indenture, payments of principal on the Notes will
be made, instead of as provided above after payment of all amounts owing to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Indenture, first to the Class
A-1 Notes until the Class A-1 Notes have been paid in full, second to the other
Classes of Class A Notes pro rata until they are paid in full, and third, to the
Class B Notes.

         (b)      On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee will post on
its website at www.jpmorgan.com/absmbs, which posting will be accessible to each
Noteholder and to the Insurer, the statement provided to the Indenture Trustee
by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.10 hereof on such Distribution Date.

         (c)      In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the
Trust's payment (or allocations of income) to a Noteholder, such tax will reduce
the amount otherwise distributable to the Noteholder in accordance with this
Section 5.8. The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain
from amounts otherwise distributable to the Noteholders sufficient funds for the
payment of any tax attributable to the Trust (but such authorization will not
prevent the Indenture Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate
proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending
the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding

                                       41

<PAGE>

tax imposed with respect to a Noteholder will be treated as cash distributed to
such Noteholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the
appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is
payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-US
Noteholder), the Indenture Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such
amounts in accordance with this Section 5.8(c). In the event that a Noteholder
wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Indenture Trustee
will reasonably cooperate with such Noteholder in making such claim so long as
such Noteholder agrees to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any out-of-pocket
expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred.

         (d)      Distributions required to be made to Noteholders on any
Distribution Date will be made to each Noteholder of record on the preceding
Record Date either by (i) wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the
account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefore, if such Noteholder has provided to the Note Registrar appropriate
written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Distribution Date
and such Holder's Notes in the aggregate evidence a denomination of not less
than $1,000,000 or (ii) by check mailed to such Noteholder at the address of
such Holder appearing in the Note Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
final distribution in respect of any Note (whether on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date or otherwise) will be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of such Note at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by
the Note Registrar pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Indenture.

         (e)      Subject to Section 5.1 and this Section 5.8, monies received
by the Indenture Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except
to the extent required by law and may be deposited under such general conditions
as may be prescribed by law, and the Indenture Trustee will not be liable for
any interest thereon.

         SECTION 5.9.      The Swap Agreements

         (a)      The parties hereby authorize and direct the Indenture Trustee
to acknowledge the Swap Agreements and to perform its obligations thereunder on
behalf of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Class A-2-B, Class A-3 and Class
A-4 Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall be responsible for monitoring the
ratings of the Swap Provider, or any related credit support provider, on a
monthly basis by calling the ratings desk of Moody's and S&P as log as this
service is available and free of charge, otherwise on a quarterly basis by
checking, to the extent available, the Moody's and S&P websites, as applicable,
or by checking Bloomberg. If the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or
notice that the Swap Provider's, or any such credit support provider's, ratings
are at any time below the required ratings set forth in the Swap Agreement, the
Indenture Trustee shall (i) send prompt written notice to the Issuer, the
Insurer, the Servicer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating
Agencies and (ii) enforce the rights and remedies under the Swap Agreement,
including, without limitation, requiring the Swap Provider to find a replacement
provider or a guarantor or posting collateral in accordance with the terms of
the Swap Agreement. In enforcing such rights and remedies, the Indenture Trustee
shall be entitled to refrain from taking any such action unless otherwise
directed by the Insurer, or, if an Insurer Default has occurred, by the Majority
Noteholders.

         (b)      In the event that the Swap Provider elects to post collateral,
the Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain an Eligible Account (the
"Swap Collateral Account") for the benefit of the Class A-2-B, Class A-3 and
Class A-4 Noteholders, the Swap Provider and the Insurer, as their interest may
appear, into which such collateral shall be deposited. The Indenture Trustee

                                       42

<PAGE>

may or shall (as indicated) make withdrawals from the Swap Collateral Account
for the purposes of (i) entering into a substitute swap agreement, (ii) funding
the amount of any payment due to be made by the Swap Provider under the Swap
Agreement following the failure by the Swap Provider to make that payment or
(iii) as permitted pursuant to the Swap Agreement or this Agreement. The
Indenture Trustee shall make withdrawals from the Swap Collateral Account and
transfer the collateral (i) as required of the Insurer or of the Indenture
Trustee pursuant to the Swap Agreement or (ii) if the circumstances which
required the posting of collateral no longer exits; and the Indenture Trustee is
permitted to liquidate ay investments held in the Swap Collateral Account for
any such purpose. If the Swap Provider proposes to make substitutions of any
collateral previously delivered to the Indenture Trustee for credit to the Swap
Collateral Account, the Swap Provider shall first obtain the consent of the
Insurer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld and provided, that if the
Indenture Trustee has no responded to such a request within five Business Days,
such consent shall be deemed to have been granted. In the event that the Swap
Provider, in its capacity as the "valuation agent" under the Swap Agreement,
informs the Indenture Trustee that additional collateral is required to be
posted by the Swap Provider under the Swap Agreement, the Indenture Trustee
shall promptly make a demand on the Swap Provider to post such additional
collateral. To the extend cash makes up all or any portion of such collateral,
such cash shall be invested in such Eligible Investments as shall be designated
by the Swap Provider. In connection with the maintenance and administration of
the Swap Collateral Account, the Indenture Trustee may request and rely on
written instructions from the Insurer (or, if an Insurer Default has occurred,
then the Servicer) with respect to the maintenance and administration of such
account. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer shall
not have any right to apply any amounts or assets in the Swap Collateral Account
except in accordance with enforcement and realization of their security interest
pursuant to the Swap Agreement.

                  The interest permitted to be paid to the Swap Provider with
respect to any such posted collateral shall be limited to the actual cash
earnings thereunder, which shall be paid out to the Swap Provider so posting
such collateral monthly, on each Payment Date (subject to the terms of the Swap
Agreement excusing such payment at any time), net of any applicable taxes, and
not subject to any tax "gross-up".

                  (viii)   the Delinquency Rate (as such term is defined in the

but are unable to use the above website are entitled to have a paper copy mailed
to them via first class mail by calling the Indenture Trustee at (212) 623-5600.
The Indenture Trustee will have the right to change the way the statements
referred to in Section 5.10(a) are distributed in order to make such
distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the parties entitled to
receive such statements. The Indenture Trustee will provide notification of any
such change to all parties entitled to receive such statements in the manner
described in Section 12.3, Section 11.4 of the Indenture or Section 11.5 of the
Indenture, as appropriate.

         SECTION 5.11.     Optional Deposits by the Insurer

                  The Insurer will at any time, and from time to time, with
respect to a Distribution Date, have the option (but will not be required,

the Indenture Trustee for deposit into the Collection Account for any of the
following purposes: (i) to provide funds in respect of the payment of fees or
expenses of any provider of services to the Trust with respect to such

         SECTION 5.12.     Determination of LIBOR.

                  The Indenture Trustee will determine LIBOR for purposes of
calculating the interest rates for the Class A-2-B Notes, the Class A-3 Notes
and the Class A-4 Notes on March 24, 2003 for the period from the Closing Date
to the first Distribution Date, and for each given Interest Period, thereafter,
on the second London Business Day prior to the prior Distribution Date (each, a
"LIBOR Determination Date").

         "LIBOR" means, with respect to any Interest Period, the rate determined
by the Indenture Trustee on the related LIBOR Determination Date on the basis of
the offered rates of the Reference Banks for one-month United States dollar
deposits, as such rates appear on the Telerate Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on
Telerate Page 3750, the rate for that day will be determined on the basis of the
rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference
Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in
the London interbank market for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period
(commencing on the first day of such Interest Period). The Indenture Trustee
will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to
provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided,
the rate for that day will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer
than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that day will be the
arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by
the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for
loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a period equal to
the relevant Interest Period (commencing on the first day of such Interest
Period).

                  "LIBOR Business Day": Any day other than (i) a Saturday or a
Sunday or (ii) a day on which banking institutions in the city of London,
England are required or authorized by law to be closed.

                  "Telerate Page 3750" is the display page named on the
Moneyline Telerate (or any other page that replaces that page on that service
for the purpose of displaying comparable name or rates).

                  "Reference Banks" means any leading banks selected by the
Servicer which are engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the
international Eurocurrency market (i) with an established place of business in
London, (ii) not controlling, under the control of or under common control with
Triad Financial Corporation or any affiliate thereof, (iii) whose quotations
appear on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date
and (iv) which have been designated as such by the Indenture Trustee.

                                  The Policies

         SECTION 6.1.      Claims Under Note Policy.

         (a)      In the event that the Servicer's Certificate with respect to
any Determination Date states that there is a Policy Claim Amount, the Indenture
Trustee will furnish to the Insurer no later than 12:00 noon Eastern time on the
Business Day after the related Determination Date a completed Notice (as
attached as a form to the Note Policy) specifying the amount of the Policy Claim
Amount,

                                       45

<PAGE>

provided, that if such Notice is received after 12:00 noon, New York City time,
on such Business Day, it will be deemed to be received before 12:00 noon, New
York City time, on the following Business Day. If any such Notice is not in
proper form or is otherwise insufficient for the purpose of making a claim under
the Note Policy, it will be deemed not to have been received for purposes of
making such claim, and the Insurer will promptly so advise the Indenture Trustee
in writing and the Indenture Trustee may submit an amended or corrected Notice.
If such an amended or corrected Notice is in proper form and is otherwise
sufficient for the purpose of making a claim under the Note Policy, it will be
deemed to have been timely received on the Business Day of such resubmission;
provided, that if such notice is received after 12:00 noon, New York City time,
it shall be deemed to be received before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the
following Business Day.

         (b)      Any notice delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the Insurer
pursuant to Section 6.1(a) will specify the Policy Claim Amount claimed under
the Note Policy and will constitute a "Notice" under the Note Policy. In
accordance with the provisions of the Note Policy, the Insurer is required to
pay to the Indenture Trustee the Policy Claim Amount properly claimed thereunder
by 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the later of (i) the Distribution Date on
which the related Policy Claim Amount is due for payment under the Indenture or
(ii) the second Business Day following actual receipt in New York, New York on a
Business Day by the Insurer of a Notice, appropriately completed and executed by
the Indenture Trustee; provided, that if such Notice is received after 12:00
noon, New York City time, on such Business Day, it will be deemed to be received
before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the following Business Day. The
Indenture Trustee will deposit amounts paid by the Insurer pursuant to a claim
submitted under this Section 6.1 into the Note Distribution Account for payment
to Holders (as defined in the Note Policy) on the related Distribution Date. Any
payment made by the Insurer under the Note Policy will be applied solely to the
payment of the Class A Notes, and for no other purpose. Amounts payable in
respect of any Policy Claim Amounts due under the Note Policy, unless otherwise
stated therein, will be distributed by the Insurer to, or at the direction of,
the Indenture Trustee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The
Insurer's payment obligations under the Note Policy with respect to particular
Policy Claim Amounts will be discharged to the extent funds equal to the
applicable Policy Claim Amounts are paid by the Insurer to, or at the direction
of, the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the Indenture Trustee's request,
whether or not such funds are properly applied by the Indenture Trustee. Payment
of Policy Claim Amounts will be made only at the time set forth in the Note
Policy, and no accelerated Insured Payments (as defined in the Note Policy) will
be made except to the extent that the Insurer has specified an earlier date for
payment at its sole option. The Note Policy does not insure against loss of any
prepayment or other acceleration payment which at any time may become due in
respect of any Insured Obligation (as defined in the Note Policy), other than at
the sole option of the Insurer, nor against any risk other than Nonpayment (as
defined in the Note Policy), including failure of the Indenture Trustee to remit
any Policy Claim Amounts or Scheduled Payments due to Holders. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in the Note Policy, in no event will the
aggregate amount paid by the Insurer thereunder exceed the Maximum Insured
Amount (as defined in the Note Policy).

         (c)      The Indenture Trustee will (i) receive as attorney-in-fact of
each Holder any Policy Claim Amount from the Insurer and (ii) deposit the same
in the Note Distribution Account for distribution to Noteholders. Any and all
Policy Claim Amounts disbursed by the Indenture Trustee from claims made under
the Note Policy will not be considered payment by the Trust or from the Spread
Account with respect to such Class A Notes, and will not discharge the
obligations of the Trust with respect thereto. The Insurer will, upon any
payment pursuant to the Note Policy, in furtherance and not in limitation of its
equitable right of subrogation and its rights under the

                                       46

<PAGE>

Insurance Agreement, to the extent it makes any payment with respect to the
Class A Notes, become subrogated to the rights of any Holders to receive any and
all amounts due in respect of the Insured Obligations as to which such payment
was made. The Insurer will be a co-beneficiary of the Indenture Trustee's lien
under the Indenture. Subject to and conditioned upon any payment with respect to
the Class A Notes by or on behalf of the Insurer, the Indenture Trustee will
assign to the Insurer all rights to the payment of interest or principal with
respect to the Notes which are then due for payment to the extent of all
payments made by the Insurer, and the Insurer may exercise any option, vote,
right, power or the like with respect to the Notes to the extent that it has
made payment pursuant to the Note Policy. To evidence such subrogation, the Note
Registrar will note the Insurer's rights as subrogee upon the register of
Holders. The foregoing subrogation will in all cases be subject to the rights of
the Holders to receive all Scheduled Payments (as defined in the Note Policy) in
respect of the Class A Notes.

         (d)      The Indenture Trustee will keep a complete and accurate record
of all funds deposited into the Note Distribution Account with respect to the
Note Policy and the allocation of such funds to payment of interest on and
principal paid in respect of any Class A Note. The Insurer will have the right
to inspect such records at reasonable times upon one Business Day's prior notice
to the Indenture Trustee.

         (e)      Only the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Holders will
entitled to make a claim for an Insured Payment under the Note Policy.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Basic Document, the
Noteholders are not entitled to institute proceedings directly against the
Insurer.

         SECTION 6.2.      Preference Claims Under Note Policy.

         (a)      In the event that the Indenture Trustee has received a
certified copy of a final, nonappealable order of an appropriate court or other
body exercising jurisdiction that any interest on or principal of the Class A
Notes which has become due for payment under the Indenture, the nonpayment of
which would have been covered by the Note Policy, and which was made to a Holder
by or on behalf of the Issuer has been deemed a preferential transfer and
recoverable, or theretofore recovered, from such Holder pursuant to Title 11 of
the United States Code in accordance with an Order (as defined below) (such
amount, a "Preference Amount"), the Indenture Trustee will so notify the
Insurer, will comply with the provisions of the Note Policy to obtain payment by
the Insurer of such avoided payment, and will, at the time it provides notice to
the Insurer, notify Holders by mail that, in the event that any Holder's payment
is so recoverable, such Holder will be entitled to payment pursuant to the terms
of the Note Policy. The Insurer will pay any Preference Amount when due to be
paid pursuant to an Order (as defined below), but in any event no earlier than
the fifth Business Day following actual receipt by the Insurer of (i) a
certified copy of a final, nonappealable order of a court or other body
exercising jurisdiction to the effect that a Holder is required to return such
Preference Amount paid during the term of the Note Policy because the payments
of such amounts were avoided as a preferential transfer or otherwise rescinded
or required to be restored by the Indenture Trustee or such Holder (the
"Order"), (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Insurer that the Order
has been entered and is final and not subject to any stay, (iii) an assignment,
in form and substance satisfactory to the Insurer, duly executed and delivered
by such Holder and the Indenture Trustee, irrevocably assigning to the Insurer
all rights and claims of the Indenture Trustee and such Holder relating to or
arising under the Indenture or otherwise with respect to such Preference Amount,
(iv) appropriate instruments in form satisfactory to the Insurer to effect the
appointment of the Insurer as agent for such Holder in any legal proceeding
related to such

                                       47

<PAGE>

Preference Amount, and (v) a Notice appropriately completed and executed by the
Indenture Trustee in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Note Policy;
provided, that (I) if such documents are received by the Insurer after 12:00
noon, New York City time, on such Business Day, they will be deemed to be
received before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the following Business Day
and (II) the Insurer will not be obligated to pay any Preference Amount in
respect of principal (other than the Class A Noteholders' Remaining Parity
Deficit Amount) prior to the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for the relevant
class of Class A Notes. Such payment will be disbursed to the receiver,
conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order,
and not to the Indenture Trustee or the Holder directly, unless the Indenture
Trustee or the relevant Holder has made a payment of the Preference Amount to
the court or such receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in
bankruptcy named in the Order, in which case the Insurer will pay the Indenture
Trustee, or as directed by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent of the payment
of the Preference Amount, subject to the delivery of (a) the items referred to
in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above to the Insurer and (b) evidence
satisfactory to the Insurer that payment has been made to such court or
receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in
the Order; provided, further, that any Preference Amount that constitutes
interest will be limited to the amount of interest on the outstanding principal
amount of the Class A Notes (calculated at the Interest Rate for the relevant
class of Class A Notes) accrued as of the last day of the applicable interest
accrual period with respect to the Class A Notes and will not, in any event,
include any interest on the Class A Notes accrued after such date or any
interest on such interest amount; provided, further, that in no event will the
Insurer be obligated to make any payment (i) in respect to any Preference Amount
to the extent that such payment, when added to all prior payments of Policy
Claim Amounts, would exceed the Maximum Insured Amount (as defined in the Note
Policy) or (ii) prior to the time the Insurer would have been required to make
an Insured Payment pursuant to Section 3 of the Policy.

         (b)      The Indenture Trustee will promptly notify the Insurer of any
proceeding or the institution of any action (of which a Responsible Officer of
the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge) seeking the avoidance as a
preferential transfer under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership,
rehabilitation or similar law (a "Note Preference Claim") of any payment made to
a Holder that has been deemed a preferential transfer and recoverable, or
theretofore recovered, from such Holder pursuant to Title 11 of United States
Code in accordance with an Order. Each Holder, by its purchase of Class A Notes,
and the Indenture Trustee hereby agree that so long as no Insurer Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Insurer may at any time during the continuation
of any proceeding relating to a Note Preference Claim direct all matters
relating to such Note Preference Claim, including (i) the direction of any
appeal of any order relating to any Note Preference Claim and (ii) the posting
of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal at the
expense of the Insurer, but subject to reimbursement as provided in the
Insurance Agreement. In addition, and without limitation of the foregoing, as
set forth in Section 6.1(c), the Insurer will be subrogated to, and each Holder
and the Indenture Trustee hereby delegate and assign, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the rights of the trustee and each Holder in the conduct of
any proceeding with respect to a Note Preference Claim, including all rights of
any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any court order
issued in connection with any such Note Preference Claim.

         SECTION 6.3.      Surrender of Note Policy

                  The Indenture Trustee will surrender the Note Policy to the
Insurer for cancellation upon the expiration of such policy in accordance with
the terms thereof.

<PAGE>

         SECTION 6.4.      Claims Under Swap Policy.

         (a)      In the event that any amount that is Due for Payment on a
Scheduled Payment Date (as such terms are defined in the Swap Policy) is unpaid
on such date, the Indenture Trustee will furnish to the Insurer no later than
12:00 noon Eastern time on the Business Day after the related Scheduled Payment
Date a completed Demand for Payment (as attached as a form to the Swap Policy)
specifying the amount of the Deficiency (as such term is defined in the Demand
for Payment). If any such Demand for Payment is not in proper form or is
otherwise insufficient for the purpose of making a claim under the Swap Policy,
it will be deemed not to have been received for purposes of making such claim,
and the Insurer will promptly so advise the Indenture Trustee in writing and the
Indenture Trustee may submit an amended or corrected Demand for Payment.

         (b)      Any notice delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the Insurer
pursuant to Section 6.4(a) will specify the Deficiency claimed under the Swap
Policy and will constitute a "Demand for Payment" under the Swap Policy. In
accordance with the provisions of the Swap Policy, the Insurer is required to
pay to the Indenture Trustee the Deficiency properly claimed thereunder, on the
later of (i) one Business Day after receipt by the General Counsel of the
Insurer of a Demand for Payment, duly executed by the Indenture Trustee; (ii) in
the case of Continuing Payment Amounts (as defined in the Swap Policy) the date
prescribed for payment for such amount under the terms of the Swap Agreements;
or (iii) in the case of a payment due in respect of an Early Termination Date
(as defined in the Swap Policy) under the Swap Policy, the date such payment is
due. The Indenture Trustee will deposit amounts paid by the Insurer pursuant to
a claim submitted under this Section 6.4 into the Swap Collateral Account for
payment to Holders (as defined in the Swap Policy) of the Class A-2-B, Class A-3
and Class A-4 Notes on the next succeeding Distribution Date. Any payment made
by the Insurer under the Swap Policy will be applied solely to the payment of
the Swap Payments, and for no other purpose. Amounts payable in respect of any
Policy Claim Amounts due under the Swap Policy, unless otherwise stated therein,
will be distributed by the Insurer to, or at the direction of, the Indenture
Trustee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Insurer's payment
obligations under the Swap Policy with respect to particular Deficiencies will
be discharged to the extent funds equal to the applicable Deficiencies are paid
by the Insurer to, or at the direction of, the Indenture Trustee in accordance
with the Indenture Trustee's request, whether or not such funds are properly
applied by the Indenture Trustee. Payment of Deficiencies will be made only at
the time set forth in the Swap Policy, and no accelerated payments will be made
except to the extent set forth in the Swap Policy or that the Insurer has
specified an earlier date for payment at its sole option. The Swap Policy does
not insure against loss of any prepayment or other acceleration payment which at
any time may become due in respect of any obligations under the Swap Policy,
other than at the sole option of the Insurer, nor against any risk other than
nonpayment under the Swap Policy, including failure of the Indenture Trustee to
remit any Deficiencies due to the Issuer.

         (c)      The Indenture Trustee will (i) receive as attorney-in-fact of
the Issuer any Deficiency from the Insurer and (ii) deposit the same in the Swap
Collateral Account for distribution to the Trust.

         (d)      The Indenture Trustee will keep a complete and accurate record
of all funds deposited into the Swap Collateral Account with respect to the Swap
Policy and the allocation of such funds to payments in respect of Swap Payments.
The Insurer will have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times upon
one Business Day's prior notice to the Indenture Trustee.

                                       49

<PAGE>

         (e)      Only the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer will be
entitled to make a claim for an insured payment under the Swap Policy.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Basic Document, the
Noteholders are not entitled to institute proceedings directly against the
Insurer.

         SECTION 6.5.      Surrender of Swap Policy

                  The Indenture Trustee will surrender the Swap Policy to the
Insurer for cancellation upon the expiration of such policy in accordance with
the terms thereof.

obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions where the
failure to do so would materially and adversely affect the Depositor's ability
to transfer the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property to the Trust
pursuant to this Agreement, or the validity or enforceability of the Receivables
and the Other Conveyed Property or to perform the Depositor's obligations
hereunder and under the Basic Documents to which it is a party.

         (c)      Power and Authority. The Depositor has the power and authority

which it is a party, when duly executed and delivered, will constitute legal,
valid and binding obligations of the Depositor enforceable in accordance with
their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and by equitable limitations on the availability of
specific remedies, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law.

         (e)      No Violation. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Basic Documents and the fulfillment of
the terms of this Agreement and the Basic Documents will not conflict with,
result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of or constitute (with

company agreement or operating agreement of the Depositor, or any indenture,
agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Depositor is
a party or by which it is bound, or result in the creation or imposition of any
Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture,
agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument, other than this
Agreement, or violate any law, order, rule or regulation applicable to the
Depositor of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction
over the Depositor or any of its properties.

         (f)      No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations
pending or, to the Depositor's knowledge, threatened against the Depositor,
before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or
governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its
properties (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or any of the Basic
Documents, (B) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of
the Basic Documents, or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might
materially and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its
obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any
of the Basic Documents.

         (g)      True Sale. The Receivables are being transferred with the
intention of removing them from the Depositor's estate pursuant to Section 541

                  During the term of this Agreement, the Depositor will keep in
full force and effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited
liability company under the laws of Delaware and will obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is
or will be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this
Agreement, the Basic Documents and each other instrument or agreement necessary
or appropriate to the proper administration of this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.

<PAGE>

                  Any Person (a) into which the Depositor may be merged or
consolidated, (b) which may result from any merger or consolidation to which the
Depositor will be a party or (c) which may succeed to the properties and assets
of the Depositor substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing
cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the
Depositor under this Agreement, will be the successor to the Depositor hereunder
without the execution or filing of any document or any further act by any of the
parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Depositor will have
delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and
the Insurer an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel,
either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments
thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and
protect the interest of the the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, respectively,
in the Receivables and reciting the details of such filings or (B) no such
action will be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.

         SECTION 7.5.      Limitation on Liability of Depositor and Others

                  The Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent
of the Depositor may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any
document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person
respecting any matters arising under any Basic Document. The Depositor will not
be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that
will not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.

         SECTION 7.6.      Ownership of the Certificates or Notes

                  The Depositor may in its individual or any other capacity
become the owner or pledgee of Certificates or Notes with the same rights as it
would have if it were not the Depositor, except as expressly provided herein or
in any Basic Document. Notes or Certificates so owned by the Depositor will have
an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of the Basic Documents,
without preference, priority, or distinction as among all of the Notes or
Certificates. The Depositor intends to convey the Certificates to the Depositor.
The Depositor will notify the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the
Insurer with respect to any other transfer of any Certificate.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  The Servicer

         SECTION 8.1.      Representations of Servicer

                  The Servicer makes the following representations on which the
Insurer is deemed to have relied in executing and delivering the Note Policy and
on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Receivables. The
representations are true and correct as of the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Receivables, and will
survive the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

                  (i)      Representations and Warranties. The representations
         and warranties set forth on the Schedule of Representations attached
         hereto as Schedule B are true and correct;

                                       52

<PAGE>

                  (ii)     Organization and Good Standing. The Servicer has been
         duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the
         laws of California, with power, authority and legal right to own its
         properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently
         owned and such business is currently conducted, and had at all relevant
         times, and now has, power, authority and legal right to enter into and
         perform its obligations under the Basic Documents;

                  (iii)    Due Qualification. The Servicer is duly qualified to
         do business as a foreign corporation in good standing and has obtained
         all necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions in which the
         ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business of
         servicing the Receivables as required by this Agreement requires or
         will require such qualification;

                  (iv)     Power and Authority. The Servicer has the power and
         authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Basic Documents
         and to carry out its terms and their terms, respectively, and the
         execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Basic
         Documents have been duly authorized by the Servicer by all necessary
         corporate action;

                  (v)      Binding Obligation. This Agreement and the Basic
         Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the
         Servicer enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except
         as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
         creditors' rights generally and by equitable limitations on the
         availability of specific remedies, regardless of whether such
         enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

                  (vi)     No Violation. The consummation of the transactions
         contemplated by this Agreement and the Basic Documents, and the
         fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement and the Basic Documents,
         will not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and
         provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time)
         a default under, the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the
         Servicer, or any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other
         instrument to which the Servicer is a party or by which it is bound, or
         result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its
         properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement,
         mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument, other than this Agreement,
         or violate any law, order, rule or regulation applicable to the
         Servicer of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body,
         administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having
         jurisdiction over the Servicer or any of its properties;

                  (vii)    No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or
         investigations pending or, to the Servicer's knowledge, threatened
         against the Servicer, before any court, regulatory body, administrative
         agency or other tribunal or governmental instrumentality having
         jurisdiction over the Servicer or its properties (A) asserting the
         invalidity of this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, (B) seeking
         to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the consummation of any of
         the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Basic
         Documents, or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might
         materially and adversely affect the performance by the Servicer of its
         obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement
         or any of the Basic Documents or (D) seeking to adversely affect the
         federal income tax or other federal, state or local tax attributes of
         the Securities;

                                       53

<PAGE>

                  (viii)   No Consents. The Servicer is not required to obtain
         the consent of any other party or any consent, license, approval or
         authorization, or registration or declaration with, any governmental
         authority, bureau or agency in connection with the execution, delivery,
         performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement which has not
         already been obtained.

         SECTION 8.2.      Liability of Servicer; Indemnities.

         (a)      The Servicer (in its capacity as such) will be liable
hereunder only to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically
undertaken by the Servicer and the representations made by the Servicer.

         (b)      The Servicer will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the
Trust, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Backup
Servicer, the Insurer, their respective officers, directors, agents and
employees, and the Noteholders from and against any and all costs, expenses,
losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses
of counsel and expenses of litigation (i) arising out of or resulting from the
use, ownership or operation by the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof of any
Financed Vehicle or (ii) to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim,
damage, or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Trust, the Indenture
Trustee, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Insurer or
the Noteholders by reason of the breach of this Agreement by the Servicer, the
negligence (other than errors in judgment), misfeasance, or bad faith of the
Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

         (c)      Indemnification under this Section 8.2 will include, without
limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.
If the Servicer has made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section 8.2 and
the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient
will promptly repay such amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest.

         (d)      The Servicer will pay, reimburse and indemnify the Indenture
Trustee and the Backup Servicer in accordance with Section 6.7 of the Indenture.

         SECTION 8.3.      Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the
Obligations of the Servicer or Backup Servicer.

         (a)      The Servicer will not merge or consolidate with any other
person, convey, transfer or lease substantially all its assets as an entirety to
another Person, or permit any other Person to become the successor to the
Servicer's business unless, after the merger, consolidation, conveyance,
transfer, lease or succession, the successor or surviving entity will be capable
of fulfilling the duties of the Servicer contained in this Agreement and,
subject to Section 4.6 of the Insurance Agreement, will be acceptable to the
Controlling Party, and, if an Insurer Default has occurred or is continuing,
will be an Eligible Servicer. Any corporation (i) into which the Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger or consolidation to which
the Servicer will be a party, (iii) which acquires by conveyance, transfer, or
lease substantially all of the assets of the Servicer, or (iv) succeeding to the
business of the Servicer, in any of the foregoing cases will execute an
agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this
Agreement and, whether or not such assumption agreement is executed, will be the
successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without the execution or filing
of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this
Agreement, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding; provided,

                                       54

<PAGE>

however, that nothing contained herein will be deemed to release the Servicer
from any obligation. The Servicer will provide notice of any merger,
consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section 8.3 to the Owner Trustee,
the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Insurer and each
Rating Agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer will not merge or
consolidate with any other Person or permit any other Person to become a
successor to the Servicer's business, unless (x) immediately after giving effect
to such transaction, no representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 4.6
will have been breached (for purposes hereof, such representations and
warranties will be true and correct as of the date of the consummation of such
transaction) and no Servicer Termination Event has occurred and is continuing
other than in connection with a change in control as provided in the Insurance
Agreement, (y) the Servicer will have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee, Backup Servicer and Collateral Agent, the Rating Agencies and
the Insurer an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that
such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply
with this Section 8.3 and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in
this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, and (z) the
Servicer will have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Rating Agencies and the Insurer an Opinion of Counsel, stating in the opinion of
such counsel, either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements
and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary to
preserve and protect the interest of the Trust in the Receivables and the Other
Conveyed Property and reciting the details of the filings or (B) no such action
will be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.

         (b)      Any corporation (i) into which the Backup Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger or consolidation to which
the Backup Servicer will be a party, (iii) which acquires by conveyance,
transfer or lease substantially all of the assets of the Backup Servicer, or
(iv) succeeding to the business of the Backup Servicer, in any of the foregoing
cases will execute an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the
Backup Servicer under this Agreement and, whether or not such assumption
agreement is executed, will be the successor to the Backup Servicer under this
Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the parties to this Agreement, anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that nothing contained herein will
be deemed to release the Backup Servicer from any obligation.

         SECTION 8.4.      Limitation on Liability of Servicer, Backup Servicer
and Others.

         (a)      Neither the Servicer, the Backup Servicer nor any of the
directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer or Backup Servicer
will be liable to the Trust or the Noteholders, except as provided in this
Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action
pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision will not
protect the Servicer, the Backup Servicer or any such person against any
liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of a breach of this
Agreement or willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (excluding errors in
judgment) in the performance of duties; provided further that this provision
will not affect any liability of Triad to indemnify the Indenture Trustee and
the Owner Trustee for costs, taxes, expenses, claims, liabilities, losses or
damages paid by the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, in their individual
capacities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Servicer, the Backup Servicer
and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer or Backup Servicer
may rely in good faith on the written advice of counsel or on any document of
any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting
any matters arising under this Agreement.

                                       55

<PAGE>

         (b)      The Backup Servicer will not be liable for any obligation of
the Servicer contained in this Agreement or for any errors of the Servicer
contained in any computer file, certificate or other data or document delivered
to the Backup Servicer hereunder or on which the Backup Servicer must rely in
order to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Owner Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Depositor and the Insurer and the Noteholders
will look only to the Servicer to perform such obligations. The Backup Servicer,
the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Custodian will have no
responsibility and will not be in default hereunder or incur any liability for
any failure, error, malfunction or any delay in carrying out any of their
respective duties under this Agreement if such failure or delay results from the
Backup Servicer acting in accordance with information prepared or supplied by a
Person other than the Backup Servicer (or contractual agents) or the failure of
any such other Person to prepare or provide such information. The Backup
Servicer will have no responsibility, will not be in default and will incur no
liability for (i) any act or failure to act of any third party (other than its
contractual agents), including the Servicer or the Controlling Party, (ii) any
inaccuracy or omission in a notice or communication received by the Backup
Servicer from any third party (other than its contractual agents), (iii) the
invalidity or unenforceability of any Receivable under applicable law, (iv) the
breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any
Receivable, or (v) the acts or omissions of any successor Backup Servicer. The
provisions of this Section 8.4(b) will not limit the Backup Servicer's
obligations pursuant to Section 4.13.

         (c)      The parties expressly acknowledge and consent to JPMorgan
Chase Bank acting in the possible dual capacity of Backup Servicer or successor
Servicer and in the capacity as Indenture Trustee. JPMorgan Chase Bank may, in
such dual or other capacity, discharge its separate functions fully, without
hindrance or regard to conflict of interest principles, duty of loyalty
principles or other breach of fiduciary duties to the extent that any such
conflict or breach arises from the performance by JPMorgan Chase Bank of express
duties set forth in the this Agreement in any of such capacities, all of which
defenses, claims or assertions are hereby expressly waived by the other parties
hereto and the Noteholders except in the case of gross negligence and willful
misconduct by JPMorgan Chase Bank.

         SECTION 8.5.      Delegation of Duties

                  The Servicer may delegate duties under this Agreement to an
Affiliate of Triad with the prior written consent of the Insurer (unless an
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing). The Servicer also may at any
time perform through sub-contractors the specific duties of (i) repossession of
Financed Vehicles, (ii) tracking Financed Vehicles' Lien Certificates and (iii)
pursuing the collection of deficiency balances or other amounts due on certain
Liquidated Receivables, in each case, without the consent of the Insurer and may
perform other specific collection and repossession duties through such
sub-contractors in accordance with Servicer's customary servicing policies and
procedures; provided, however, that no such delegation or sub-contracting of
duties by the Servicer will relieve the Servicer of its responsibility with
respect to such duties. So long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing neither Triad nor any party acting as Servicer hereunder will appoint
any subservicer hereunder without the prior written consent of the Insurer.

         SECTION 8.6.      Servicer and Backup Servicer Not to Resign

                  Subject to Section 8.3, neither the Servicer nor the Backup
Servicer may resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this
Agreement as Servicer or Backup Servicer except

                                       56

<PAGE>

upon a determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements the
performance of its duties under this Agreement would cause it to be in violation
of such legal requirements in a manner which would have a material adverse
effect on the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, and the
Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default has not occurred) or the Majority
Noteholders (if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) does not
elect to waive the obligations of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the
case may be, to perform the duties which render it legally unable to act or to
delegate those duties to another Person. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Servicer or Backup Servicer will be evidenced by an Opinion
of Counsel to such effect delivered and acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, the
Owner Trustee and the Insurer (unless an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing). No resignation of the Servicer will become effective until, so long
as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the Backup Servicer or an
entity acceptable to the Insurer has assumed the responsibilities and
obligations of the Servicer or, if an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Backup Servicer or a successor Servicer that is an Eligible
Servicer has assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer. No
resignation of the Backup Servicer will become effective until, so long as no
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, an entity acceptable to the
Insurer has assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Backup Servicer
or, if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, a Person that is an
Eligible Servicer has assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Backup
Servicer; provided, however, that (i) in the event a successor Backup Servicer
is not appointed within 60 days after the Backup Servicer has given notice of
its resignation and has provided the Opinion of Counsel required by this Section
8.6, the Backup Servicer may petition a court for its removal, (ii) the Backup
Servicer may resign with the written consent of the Insurer and (iii)
notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if JPMorgan Chase Bank resigns or is
removed as the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture it will no longer be the
Backup Servicer.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                     Default

         SECTION 9.1.      Servicer Termination Event

                  For purposes of this Agreement, each of the following will
constitute a "Servicer Termination Event":

         (a)      Any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture
Trustee for distribution to Noteholders any proceeds or payment required to be
so delivered under this Agreement that continues unremedied for a period of two
Business Days (one Business Day with respect to payment of Purchase Amounts)
after written notice is received by the Servicer from the Indenture Trustee or
(unless an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) the Insurer or after
discovery of such failure by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer;

         (b)      Failure by the Servicer to deliver the Servicer's Certificate
by the Determination Date;

         (c)      Failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform
any other covenants or agreements of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement
or, if the Servicer is Triad, failure of Triad duly to perform any other
covenants or agreements of Triad set forth in the Purchase Agreement which
failure (i) materially and adversely affects the rights of Noteholders
(determined without

                                       57

<PAGE>

regard to the availability of funds under the Note Policy), or of the Insurer
(unless an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing), and (ii) continues
unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of
such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, has been given to the Servicer
by the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Insurer (or, if an Insurer Default
has occurred and is continuing, by any Noteholder);

         (d)      An Insolvency Event has occurred with respect to the Servicer;

         (e)      Any representation, warranty or statement of the Servicer made
in this Agreement or any certificate, report or other writing delivered pursuant
hereto will prove to be incorrect in any material respect as of the time when
the same will have been made, and the incorrectness of such representation,
warranty or statement has a material adverse effect on the Trust, the Insurer or
the Noteholders' interests and, within 30 days after knowledge thereof by the
Servicer or after written notice thereof will have been given to the Servicer by
the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer (or, if an Insurer Default has occurred and
is continuing, a Noteholder), the circumstances or conditions in respect of
which such representation, warranty or statement was incorrect will not have
been eliminated or otherwise cured;

         (f)      So long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing,
an Insurance Agreement Event of Default occurs;

         (g)      A claim is made under the Note Policy to make a payment under
Section 5.7(b)(iv); or

         (h)      the occurrence of a Trigger Event under the Insurance
Agreement.

         SECTION 9.2.      Consequences of a Servicer Termination Event

                  If a Servicer Termination Event has occurred and is
continuing, the Insurer (or, if an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, either the Indenture Trustee (to the extent it has knowledge
thereof) or the Majority Noteholders), by notice given in writing to the
Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Insurer or the
Noteholders) may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer
under this Agreement; provided that if no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Majority Noteholders may
deliver such notice, and termination will be in the Insurer's sole and absolute
discretion. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice or
upon termination of the term of the Servicer, all authority, power, obligations
and responsibilities of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect
to the Notes, the Certificates or the Other Conveyed Property or otherwise,
automatically will pass to, be vested in and become obligations and
responsibilities of the Backup Servicer (or such other successor Servicer
appointed by the Controlling Party); provided, however, that the successor
Servicer will have no liability with respect to any obligation which was
required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the
successor Servicer becomes the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on
any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer. The successor
Servicer is authorized and empowered by this Agreement to execute and deliver,
on behalf of the terminated Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and
all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or
things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables
and the Other Conveyed Property and related documents to show the Trust as
lienholder or secured party on the related Lien Certificates, or otherwise. The
terminated Servicer agrees to

                                       58

<PAGE>

cooperate with the successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the
responsibilities and rights of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement,
including the transfer to the successor Servicer for administration by it of all
cash amounts that will at the time be held by the terminated Servicer for
deposit, or have been deposited by the terminated Servicer, in the Collection
Account or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables and the delivery
to the successor Servicer of all Receivable Files, Monthly Records and
Collection Records and a computer tape in readable form as of the most recent
Business Day containing all information necessary to enable the successor
Servicer to service the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property. If
requested by the Controlling Party, the successor Servicer will terminate the
Lockbox Agreement and direct the Obligors to make all payments under the
Receivables directly to the successor Servicer (in which event the successor
Servicer will process such payments in accordance with Section 4.2(e)), or to a
lockbox established by the successor Servicer at the direction of the
Controlling Party, at the successor Servicer's expense. The terminated Servicer
will grant the Indenture Trustee, the successor Servicer and the Controlling
Party reasonable access to the terminated Servicer's premises at the terminated
Servicer's expense.

         SECTION 9.3.      Appointment of Successor.

         (a)      On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 9.2, or upon the resignation of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.6, the Backup Servicer (unless the Controlling Party will
have exercised its option pursuant to Section 9.3(b) to appoint an alternate
successor Servicer) will be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its
capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or
provided for in this Agreement, and will be subject to all the rights,
responsibilities, restrictions, duties, liabilities and termination provisions
relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this
Agreement except as otherwise stated herein. The Indenture Trustee and such
successor will take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as will be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. If a successor Servicer is acting
as Servicer hereunder, it will be subject to termination under Section 9.2 upon
the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event applicable to it as Servicer.

         (b)      The Controlling Party may exercise at any time its right to
appoint as Backup Servicer or as successor to the Servicer a Person other than
the Person serving as Backup Servicer at the time, and (without limiting its
obligations under the Note Policy) will have no liability to the Indenture
Trustee, Triad, the Depositor, the Person then serving as Backup Servicer, any
Noteholders or any other Person if it does so. Notwithstanding the above, if the
Backup Servicer will be legally unable or unwilling to act as Servicer, and an
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the Backup Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee or the Majority Noteholders may petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint any Eligible Servicer as the successor to the Servicer.
Pending appointment pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Backup Servicer,
subject to Section 8.6(iii), will act as successor Servicer unless it is legally
unable to do so, in which event the outgoing Servicer will continue to act as
Servicer until a successor has been appointed and accepted such appointment.
Subject to Section 8.6, no provision of this Agreement will be construed as
relieving the Backup Servicer of its obligation to succeed as successor Servicer
upon the termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.2 or the resignation
of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.6. If upon the termination of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 9.2 or the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section
8.6, the Controlling Party appoints a successor Servicer other than the Backup
Servicer, the Backup Servicer will not be relieved of its duties as Backup
Servicer hereunder.

                                       59

<PAGE>

         (c)      Any successor Servicer will be entitled to such compensation
(whether payable out of the Collection Account or otherwise) as the Servicer
would have been entitled to under this Agreement if the Servicer had not
resigned or been terminated hereunder. The Insurer, if the Class A Notes are
outstanding and no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, and such
successor Servicer may agree on additional compensation to be paid to such
successor Servicer, which additional compensation will be payable as provided
herein and will in no event exceed $150,000 in the aggregate. The Backup
Servicer will not be liable for any Servicing Fee, additional compensation or
other amounts to be paid to such successor Servicer in connection with its
assumption and performance of the servicing duties described herein.

         SECTION 9.4.      Notification to Noteholders

                  Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the
Servicer, the Indenture Trustee will give prompt written notice thereof to each
Noteholder and to the Rating Agencies.

         SECTION 9.5.      Waiver of Past Defaults

                  So long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Insurer (or, if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Majority Noteholders) may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any default by
the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its
consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default will cease to
exist, and any Servicer Termination Event arising therefrom will be deemed to
have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver will
extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent
thereto.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                   Termination

         SECTION 10.1.     Optional Purchase of All Receivables.

         (a)      On the last day of any Collection Period as of which the Pool
Balance will be less than or equal to 10% of the Original Pool Balance, the
Servicer will have the option to purchase the Owner Trust Estate, other than the
Trust Accounts (with the consent of the Insurer if such purchase would result in
a claim on the Note Policy or would result in any amount owing to the Insurer
under the Insurance Agreement remaining unpaid); provided, however, that the
amount to be paid for such purchase (as set forth in the following sentence)
will be sufficient to pay the full amount of principal, premium, if any,
interest then due and payable on the Notes and amounts due and unpaid under the
Swap Agreements. To exercise such option, the Servicer will deposit pursuant to
Section 5.6 in the Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase
Amount for the Receivables (including Liquidated Receivables), plus the
appraised value of any other property held by the Trust, such value to be
determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, the Insurer and
the Indenture Trustee, and will succeed to all interests in and to the Trust.

         (b)      Upon any sale of the assets of the Trust pursuant to Section
8.1 of the Trust Agreement, the Servicer will instruct the Indenture Trustee to
deposit the proceeds from such sale after all payments and reserves therefrom
(including the expenses of such sale) have been made (the "Insolvency Proceeds")
in the Collection Account.

                                       60

<PAGE>

         (c)      Notice of any termination of the Trust will be given by the
Servicer to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the
Insurer and the Rating Agencies as soon as practicable after the Servicer has
received notice thereof.

         (d)      Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and
the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the
Certificateholders will succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and
the Trust will succeed to the rights of, and assume the obligations of, the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                      Administrative Duties of the Servicer

         SECTION 11.1.     Administrative Duties.

         (a)      Duties with Respect to the Basic Documents. The Servicer will
perform all its duties and the duties of the Issuer under the Basic Documents.
In addition, the Servicer will consult with the Owner Trustee as the Servicer
deems appropriate regarding the duties of the Issuer under the Basic Documents.
The Servicer will monitor the performance of the Issuer and will advise the
Owner Trustee when action is necessary to comply with the Issuer's duties under
the Basic Documents. The Servicer will prepare for execution by the Issuer or
will cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such documents,
reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it will be the duty
of the Issuer to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Basic Documents. In
furtherance of the foregoing, the Servicer will take all necessary action that
is the duty of the Issuer to take pursuant to the Indenture, including pursuant
to Sections 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 3.10, 3.17, 5.1, 5.4, 7.3, 8.3, 9.2, 9.3,
11.1 and 11.15 of the Indenture.

         (b)      Duties with Respect to the Issuer.

                  (i)      In addition to the duties of the Servicer set forth
         in this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, the Servicer will
         perform such calculations and will prepare for execution by the Issuer
         or the Owner Trustee or will cause the preparation by other appropriate
         Persons of all such documents, reports, filings, instruments,
         certificates and opinions as it will be the duty of the Issuer or the
         Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to this Agreement or
         any of the Basic Documents or under state and federal tax and
         securities laws, and at the request of the Owner Trustee will take all
         appropriate action that it is the duty of the Issuer to take pursuant
         to this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents. In accordance with the
         directions of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee, the Servicer will
         administer, perform or supervise the performance of such other
         activities in connection with the Collateral (including the Basic
         Documents) as are not covered by any of the foregoing provisions and as
         are expressly requested by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee and are
         reasonably within the capability of the Servicer.

                  (ii)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of
         the Basic Documents to the contrary, the Servicer will be responsible
         for promptly notifying the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee in
         the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer's payments
         (or allocations of income) to an Owner (as defined in the Trust
         Agreement) as contemplated this Agreement. Any such notice will be in
         writing and specify the amount of

                                       61

<PAGE>

         any withholding tax required to be withheld by the Owner Trustee or the
         Indenture Trustee pursuant to such provision.

                  (iii)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the
         Basic Documents to the contrary, the Servicer will be responsible for
         performance of the duties of the Issuer set forth in Section 5.1(a) and
         (b) of the Trust Agreement with respect to, among other things,
         accounting and reports to Owners (as defined in the Trust Agreement);
         provided, however, that once prepared by the Servicer the Owner Trustee
         will retain responsibility for the distribution of the Schedule K-1s
         upon request of the Certificateholder in order to enable the
         Certificateholder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

                  (iv)     The Servicer will perform the duties of the Servicer
         specified in Section 9.2 of the Trust Agreement required to be
         performed in connection with the resignation or removal of the Owner
         Trustee, and any other duties expressly required to be performed by the
         Servicer under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

                  (v)      In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its
         other obligations under this Agreement, the Servicer may enter into
         transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates;
         provided, however, that the terms of any such transactions or dealings
         will be in accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and
         will be, in the Servicer's opinion, no less favorable to the Issuer in
         any material respect.

         (c)      Tax Matters. The Servicer will prepare and file, on behalf of
the Trust, all tax returns, tax elections, financial statements and such annual
or other reports attributable to the activities engaged in by the Issuer as are
necessary for preparation of tax reports, including forms 1099. All tax returns
will be signed by the Servicer unless applicable law requires a
Certificateholder to sign such documents.

         (d)      Non-Ministerial Matters. With respect to matters that in the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer are non-ministerial, the Servicer will not
take any action pursuant to this Article XI unless within a reasonable time
before the taking of such action, the Servicer will have notified the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee
and, with respect to items (A), (B), (C) and (D) below, the Indenture Trustee
and, so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the Insurer
will not have withheld consent or provided an alternative direction. For the
purpose of the preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters" include:

                           (A)      the amendment of or any supplement to the
                  Indenture;

                           (B)      the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by
                  the Issuer and the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit
                  brought by or against the Issuer (other than in connection
                  with the collection of the Receivables);

                           (C)      the amendment, change or modification of
                  this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents;

                           (D)      the appointment of successor Note
                  Registrars, successor Paying Agents and successor Indenture
                  Trustees pursuant to the Indenture or the appointment of
                  Successor Servicers or the consent to the assignment by the
                  Note Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee of its
                  obligations under the Indenture; and

                                       62

                           (E)      the removal of the Indenture Trustee.

         (e)      Exceptions. Except as expressly set forth herein, the
Servicer, in its capacity hereunder, will not be obligated to, and will not, (1)
make any payments to the Noteholders or Certificateholders under the Basic
Documents, (2) sell the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.5 of the Indenture,
(3) take any other action that the Issuer directs the Servicer not to take on
its behalf or (4) in connection with its duties hereunder assume any
indemnification obligation of any other Person.

         (f)      The Backup Servicer or any successor Servicer will not be
responsible for any obligations or duties of the Servicer under this Section
11.1.

         SECTION 11.2.     Records

                  The Servicer will maintain appropriate books of account and
records relating to services performed under this Agreement, which books of
account and records will be accessible for inspection by the Issuer at any time
during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice.

         SECTION 11.3.     Additional Information to be Furnished to the Issuer

                  The Servicer will furnish to the Issuer and, so long as no
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the Insurer, from time to time
such additional information regarding the Collateral as the Issuer and, so long
as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the Insurer, will
reasonably request.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                            Miscellaneous Provisions

         SECTION 12.1.     Amendment

         (a)      This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties
hereto, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee (which consent may not be
unreasonably withheld), with the prior written consent of the Insurer (which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld; provided that no Insurer Default has
occurred and is continuing) but without the consent of any of the Noteholders,
to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this
Agreement, to comply with any changes in the Code, or to make any other
provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement
which will not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and the
Insurance Agreement; provided, however, that such action will not, as evidenced
by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee,
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder;
provided further that if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, such
action will not materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.

                  During the period when the Swap Agreements are in effect, or,
if the Swap Agreements are no longer in effect, until such time as no amounts
are, or could be, due and owing to the Swap Provider, the Indenture Trustee will
not execute and deliver any amendment or modification to: (1) this Agreement
(including, without limitation, any such amendment or modification to any
defined term used in this Agreement) that would adversely affect the interests
of the Swap Provider under this Agreement, including without limitation any such
amendment,

                                       63

<PAGE>

modification or supplement that would (i) reduce in any manner the amount of,
delay the timing of or change the manner (including the priority of payments) in
which payments received on or with respect to the Receivables are required to be
distributed with respect to the Class A-2-B Notes, the Class A-3 Notes or the
Class A-4 Notes, or diminish or delay the obligations of the Trust to the Swap
Provider, (ii) increase or change the timing of any obligations of the Swap
Provider under the Swap Agreement, (iii) modify Sections 5.7, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 or
12.1 hereof, (iv) adversely affect the Swap Provider's ability to enforce or
protect its rights or remedies, (v) adversely affect the ability of the Trust to
timely and fully perform its obligations under this Agreement or under the Swap
Agreements or (vi) adversely affect or change the rights of the Swap Provider or
the benefits accorded to the Swap Provider under this Agreement or under the
Swap Agreements, or (2) the Note Policy. Any such amendment, modification or
supplement without the Swap Provider's prior written consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed unless clause (1)(i), (1)(ii),
(1)(iii) or (2) of the immediately preceding sentence applies) shall not be
binding on the Swap Provider. For the avoidance of doubt, the term "adversely"
as used in this paragraph (c) shall be determined with the interests of the Swap
Provider in mind.

         (b)      This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
parties hereto, with the consent of the Insurer, the consent of the Indenture
Trustee, and with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a
majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
Noteholders; provided, however, that no such amendment will (a) increase or
reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of,
collections of payments on Receivables or distributions that will be required to
be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, the Holders of
which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the
Holders of all the outstanding Notes of each class affected thereby; provided,
further, that if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, such action
will not materially adversely affect the interest of the Insurer.

         (c)      Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent,
the Indenture Trustee will furnish written notification of the substance of such
amendment or consent to each Noteholder and the Rating Agencies.

         (d)      It will not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders
pursuant to this Section 12.1 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment or consent, but it will be sufficient if such consent will approve the
substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents
of Noteholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the
authorization of any action by Noteholders will be subject to such reasonable
requirements as the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as applicable, may
prescribe.

         (e)      Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the
Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and Backup Servicer will be
entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating
that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this
Agreement and the Opinion of Counsel referred to in Section 12.2(h)(1) has been
delivered. The Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Indenture Trustee may,
but will not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the
Issuer's, the Owner Trustee's, the Backup Servicer's or the Indenture Trustee's,
as applicable, own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or
otherwise.

         SECTION 12.2.     Protection of Title to Trust.

         (a)      Triad will cause to be executed and filed such financing
statements and continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as
may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of
the Issuer and the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables and in
the proceeds thereof. Triad will deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the
Insurer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or
filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available
following such filing.

         (b)      Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer will change its name,
identity, corporate structure or jurisdiction of formation or take any action
that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation
statement filed in accordance with Section 12.2(a) ineffective to continue the
first priority perfected security interest in that portion of the trust estate
in which a security interest may be perfected by filing under the applicable
Uniform Commercial Code. If any refiling is required, the Depositor or Servicer,
as the case may be, will promptly give notice and file new financing statements
or amendments thereto or continuation statements thereof. Promptly upon such
filing, the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, will deliver an
Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Insurer,
stating either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements have
been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the
interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, and reciting
the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which
such details are given, or (B) no such action will be necessary to preserve and
protect such interest.

         (c)      The Servicer will at all times maintain each office from which
it will service Receivables, and its principal executive office, within the
United States of America.

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

         (e)      The Servicer will maintain its computer systems so that, from
and after the time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to the
Issuer, the Servicer's master computer records (including any backup archives)
that refer to a Receivable will indicate clearly the interest of the Trust in
such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Trust. Indication of
the Trust's interest in a Receivable will be deleted from or modified on the
Servicer's computer systems when, and only when, the related Receivable will
have been paid in full or repurchased.

         (f)      If at any time the Servicer proposes to sell, grant a security
interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in motor vehicle receivables to
any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Servicer will give to
such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records
or printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if they refer
in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, indicate clearly that such
Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Trust.

         (g)      Upon request, the Servicer will furnish to the Insurer, the
Owner Trustee or to the Indenture Trustee, within five Business Days, a list of
all Receivables (by contract number and name of Obligor) then held as part of
the Trust, together with a reconciliation of such list to the Schedule of

                                       65

<PAGE>

Receivables and to each of the Servicer's Certificates furnished before such
request indicating removal of Receivables from the Trust.

         (h)      The Servicer will deliver to the Insurer, the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee:

                           (1)      promptly after the execution and delivery of
         the Agreement and, if required pursuant to Section 12.1, of each
         amendment, an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such
         counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Insurer,
         either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements have

the Indenture Trustee or such Holder (the "Order"), (ii) an opinion of counsel
satisfactory to the Insurer stating that the Order has been entered and is final
and not subject to any stay, (iii) an assignment, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Insurer, duly executed and delivered by such Holder and the

accrued as of the last day of the applicable interest accrual period with
respect to the Class A Notes and shall not, in any event, include any interest
on the Class A Notes accrued after such date or any interest on such interest
amount. Such payment shall be disbursed to the receiver, conservator,
debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order, and not to the
Indenture Trustee or the Holder directly, unless the Indenture Trustee or the
relevant Holder has made a payment of the Preference Amount to the court or such
receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in
the Order, in which case the Insurer will pay the Indenture Trustee, or as

required to make an Insured Payment pursuant to Section 3 of this Policy.

         9.       There shall be no acceleration payment due under this Policy
unless such acceleration is at the sole option of the Insurer. This Policy does
not cover (i) premiums, if any, payable in respect of the Class A Notes, (ii)
shortfalls, if any, attributable to any payment of withholding taxes (including
penalties and interest in respect of any such liability) or (iii) any risk other
