 WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, Ohio

 WHEREAS, Ohio Bank has sold or contributed to FTH LLC undivided 100% interests (the “Participation Interests”) in motor

 WHEREAS, FTH LLC further desires to purchase from

 WHEREAS, Ohio Bank is willing to sell such motor vehicle receivables related to Participation Interests and such portfolio of motor
vehicle receivables and related property to FTH LLC on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I

 DEFINITIONS AND USAGE 
 SECTION 1.1 Definitions. Except as otherwise defined herein or as the context may otherwise require, capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein are defined in Appendix A to the Sale and Servicing Agreement
dated as of the date hereof (as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”) among Fifth Third Auto Trust 2008-1, Ohio Bank, as servicer, Fifth Third Holdings
Funding, LLC, as seller, and The Bank of New York, as indenture trustee. 
 SECTION 1.2 Other Interpretive Provisions.
For purposes of this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (a) accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement, and accounting terms partly defined in this Agreement to the extent not defined, shall have the respective
meanings given to them under GAAP; (b) terms defined in Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the relevant jurisdiction and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are used as defined in that Article; (c) the words “hereof,”
“herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import 

 
refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; (d) references to any Article, Section, Schedule, Appendix or
Exhibit are references to Articles, Sections, Schedules, Appendices and Exhibits in or to this Agreement and references to any paragraph, subsection, clause or other subdivision within any Section or definition refer to such paragraph, subsection,

 ARTICLE II 
 PURCHASE 
 SECTION 2.1 Agreement to Sell and Contribute on the Closing Date. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, Ohio Bank agrees to transfer, assign, set over, sell and otherwise convey to FTH LLC without recourse (subject to the obligations herein) on the Closing Date (a) all of its right, title, interest, claims and demands of the Ohio Bank
in, to and under the Receivables described on Schedule III hereto, the Collections after the Cut-Off Date, the Receivable Files and the Related Security relating thereto, described in the assignment in the form of Exhibit A
(“Assignment”) delivered on the Closing Date (the “Ohio Bank Sold Assets”) having a Net Pool Balance as of the Cut-Off Date equal to $99,784,092.15, which sale shall be effective as of the Cut-Off Date and
(b) all of its right, title, interest, claims and demands of the Ohio Bank, in, to and under the Receivables described on Schedule IV hereto, the Collections after the Cut-Off Date, the Receivable Files and the Related Security relating
thereto, described in the Assignment in the form of Exhibit A delivered on the Closing Date (the “Ohio Bank Participated Assets” and, together with the Ohio Bank Sold Assets, the “Ohio Bank Transferred Assets”)
having a Net Pool Balance as of the Cut-Off Date equal to $319,531,975.29, which sale shall be effective as of the Cut-Off Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that (i) Ohio Bank has previously sold or contributed an
undivided 100% interest in the Ohio Bank Participated Assets to FTH LLC pursuant to the Master Loan Contribution and Participation Agreement, and that the foregoing provision is intended to transfer any remaining right, title and interests of Ohio
Bank in such Ohio Bank Participated Assets to FTH LLC and (ii) that the Participation Agreement and the Servicing Agreement (as defined in the Participation Agreement), as each such document relates to the Ohio Bank Participated Assets and the
Receivables and Participation Interests related thereto, shall be deemed terminated and be of no further force and effect with respect to the Ohio Bank Participated Assets and the Receivables, and Participation Interests related thereto. The sale,
transfer, assignment and conveyance made hereunder does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by FTH LLC of any obligation of Ohio Bank or the applicable Originator to the Obligors, the Dealers or any other Person in
connection with the Receivables or the other assets and properties conveyed hereunder or any agreement, document or instrument related thereto. 
 SECTION 2.2 Consideration and Payment. In consideration of the transfer of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets conveyed to FTH LLC on the Closing Date, FTH LLC shall pay in cash 

  

 -2- 

 
to Ohio Bank on such date an amount equal to the estimated fair market value of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets on the Closing Date. 
 ARTICLE III 
 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND
COVENANTS 
 SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of Ohio Bank. Ohio Bank makes the following representations
and warranties as of the Closing Date on which FTH LLC will be deemed to have relied in acquiring the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets. The representations and warranties will survive the conveyance of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets to FTH LLC
pursuant to this Agreement, the conveyance of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets by FTH LLC to the Depositor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the conveyance of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale and
Servicing Agreement and the Grant thereof by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture: 
 (a)
Existence and Power. Ohio Bank is a banking corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization and has, in all material respects, all power and authority to carry on its business as it is now
conducted. Ohio Bank has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction where the failure to do so would materially and adversely affect the ability of Ohio Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents or
affect the enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables or any other part of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets. 
 (b)
Authorization and No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Ohio Bank of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Ohio Bank and (ii) do
not contravene or constitute a default under (A) any applicable law, rule or regulation, (B) its organizational documents or (C) any material agreement, contract, order or other instrument to which it is a party or its property is
subject (other than violations which do not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of such agreements and which, individually or in the aggregate, would not materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by, or Ohio
Bank’s ability to perform its obligations under, the Transaction Documents). 
 (c) No Consent Required. No
approval or authorization by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Ohio Bank of any Transaction Document other than (i) UCC filings, (ii) approvals and
authorizations that have previously been obtained and filings that have previously been made and (iii) approvals, authorizations or filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the enforceability or
collectibility of the Receivables or any other part of the Ohio Bank Transferred Assets or would not materially and adversely affect the ability of Ohio Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. 
 (d) Binding Effect. Each Transaction Document to which Ohio Bank is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Ohio Bank enforceable against Ohio Bank in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other 

  

 -3- 

 
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and, if applicable, the rights of creditors of corporations from time to time in
effect or by general principles of equity. 
 (e) No Proceedings. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending
or, to the knowledge of Ohio Bank, threatened against Ohio Bank before or by any Governmental Authority that (i) assert the invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (ii) seek to prevent
the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (iii) seek any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the performance
by Ohio Bank of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the collectibility or enforceability of the Receivables, or (iv) relate to Ohio Bank that would materially and adversely affect the federal or
Applicable Tax State income, excise, franchise or similar tax attributes of the Notes. 
 (f) Lien Filings. There are
no material judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against Ohio Bank. 
 SECTION 3.2 Representations and Warranties of Ohio
Bank as to each Receivable. Ohio Bank hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth on Schedule I as to the Receivables (including the Receivables related to both the Ohio Bank Sold Assets and the Ohio Bank Participated Assets
sold), contributed, transferred, assigned, set over and otherwise conveyed to FTH LLC under this Agreement on which such representations and warranties FTH LLC relies in acquiring the Receivables. (For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that
Ohio Bank makes representations and warranties only with respect to the Receivables described on Schedules III and IV hereto.) Such representations and warranties shall survive the sale of the Receivables to the Seller under the Purchase Agreement,
the sale of the Receivables by the Seller to the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Grant of the Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary
contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, Ohio Bank shall not be required to notify any insurer with respect to any Insurance Policy obtained by an Obligor or to notify any Dealer about any aspect of the transaction contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. 
 SECTION 3.3 Repurchase upon Breach. Upon discovery by or notice to FTH LLC or Ohio Bank of a
breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 at the time such representations and warranties were made which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders, the party discovering
such breach or receiving such notice shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party; provided, that delivery of the Servicer’s Certificate shall be deemed to constitute prompt notice of such breach; provided,
further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of Ohio Bank hereunder. If Ohio Bank does not correct or cure such breach prior to the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if Ohio Bank
elects, an earlier date) after the date that Ohio Bank became aware or was notified of such breach, then Ohio Bank shall purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach from FTH LLC on the Payment Date following the end of
such Collection Period. Any such breach or failure will not be deemed to have a material and adverse effect if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of FTH LLC (or its assignee) to receive and retain timely payment in full on such
Receivable. Any such 

  

 -4- 

 
purchase by Ohio Bank shall be at a price equal to the Repurchase Price. In consideration for such repurchase, Ohio Bank shall make (or shall cause to be
made) a payment to FTH LLC equal to the Repurchase Price by depositing such amount into the Collection Account prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time on such Payment Date. Upon payment of such Repurchase Price by Ohio Bank, FTH LLC shall release
and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as may be reasonably requested by Ohio Bank to evidence such release, transfer or assignment or more effectively vest
in Ohio Bank or its designee any Receivable repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of Ohio Bank to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to
FTH LLC. 
 SECTION 3.4 Protection of Title. 
 (a) Ohio Bank shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation and other statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be
required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of FTH LLC under this Agreement in the Receivables. Ohio Bank shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to FTH LLC file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed
as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. 
 (b) The Ohio Bank will notify FTH LLC in writing within ten
(10) days following the occurrence of (i) any change in the Ohio Bank’s organizational structure as a banking corporation, (ii) any change in the Ohio Bank’s “location” (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of
the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) and (iii) any change in the Ohio Bank’s name and shall have taken all action prior to making such change (or shall have made arrangements to take such action substantially simultaneously with such
change, if it is not possible to take such action in advance) reasonably necessary or advisable in the opinion of FTH LLC to amend all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements described in paragraph (a) above. The Ohio
Bank will at all times maintain its “location” within the United States. 
 (c) Ohio Bank shall maintain (or shall
cause the Servicer to maintain) its computer systems so that, from time to time after the conveyance under this Agreement of the Receivables, the master computer records (including any backup archives, it being understood that any such backup
archives may not reflect such interest until up to thirty-five (35) days after the applicable changes are made to such master computer records) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the interest of FTH LLC (or any subsequent
assignee of FTH LLC) in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by such Person. Indication of such Person’s interest in a Receivable shall not be deleted from or modified on such computer systems until, and only until, the related
Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased. 
 (d) If at any time Ohio Bank shall propose to sell, grant a
security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in motor vehicle receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, Ohio Bank shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records or
printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by FTH LLC (or any subsequent assignee of FTH LLC).

  

 -5- 

 SECTION 3.5 Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances and grants of
security interests pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, Ohio Bank shall not sell, pledge, assign or transfer the Receivables or other property transferred to FTH LLC to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any interest therein, and Ohio Bank shall defend the right, title and interest of FTH LLC in, to and under such Receivables or other property transferred to FTH LLC against all claims of third
parties claiming through or under Ohio Bank. 
 SECTION 3.6 Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Ohio
Bank hereby makes the perfection representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Schedule II hereto to FTH LLC and FTH LLC shall be deemed to have relied on such representations, warranties and covenants in acquiring the Ohio Bank
Transferred Assets. 
 SECTION 3.7 FDIC Rule; Official Record 
 (a) The parties hereto intend that (A) the FDIC Rule shall apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, (B) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, taken as a whole, constitute a “securitization” within the meaning of the FDIC Rule and (C) the transfer of
Receivables and other property pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a sale, and not a secured borrowing, for accounting purposes as it relates to the FDIC Rule. 
 (b) So long as the Notes remain outstanding, this Agreement shall be treated as an official record of Ohio Bank within the meaning of Section 13(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12
U.S.C. Section 1823(e)). 
 ARTICLE IV 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION 4.1 Transfers Intended as Sale; Security Interest.

 (a) Each of the parties hereto expressly intends and agrees that the transfers contemplated and effected under this
Agreement are complete and absolute sales and contributions rather than pledges or assignments of only a security interest and shall be given effect as such for all purposes. It is further the intention of the parties hereto that the Receivables and
other Ohio Bank Transferred Assets shall not be part of Ohio Bank’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of Ohio Bank. The sales and transfers by Ohio Bank of the Receivables and related Ohio Bank Transferred Assets hereunder are
and shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty (express or implied) by, Ohio Bank, except as otherwise specifically provided herein. The limited rights of recourse specified herein against Ohio Bank are intended to provide a remedy
for breach of representations and warranties relating to the condition of the property sold, rather than to the collectibility of the Receivables. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Receivables and other Ohio Bank Transferred Assets are held to be property of Ohio Bank, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create
indebtedness or a security interest in the Receivables and other Ohio Bank Transferred Assets, then it is intended that: 
  

 -6- 

 (i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the
meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; 
 (ii) The
conveyance provided for in Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be a grant by Ohio Bank of, and Ohio Bank hereby grants to FTH LLC, a security interest in all of its right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Receivables and other Ohio Bank Transferred Assets, to secure such indebtedness and the performance of the obligations of Ohio Bank hereunder; 
 (iii) The possession by FTH LLC or its agent of the Receivable Files and any other property that constitute instruments,
money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by FTH LLC or a Person designated by FTH LLC, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC
and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; and 
 (iv) Notifications to Persons holding such property,
and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of FTH LLC for the purpose of perfecting
such security interest under applicable law. 
 SECTION 4.2 Notices, Etc. All demands, notices and communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered or mailed by registered or certified first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, hand delivery, prepaid courier service, or by facsimile and addressed in each case as specified on Schedule
II to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or at such other address as shall be designated by any of the specified addressees in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Any notice required or permitted to be mailed to a Noteholder shall be
given by first class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Noteholder as shown in the Note Register. Delivery shall occur only upon receipt or reported tender of such communication by an officer of the recipient entitled to receive such
notices located at the address of such recipient for notices hereunder; provided, however, that any notice to a Noteholder mailed within the time and manner prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given, whether or not the Noteholder shall receive such notice. 
 SECTION 4.3 Choice of Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL, SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE RULES THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW,
AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. 
 SECTION 4.4 Headings. The section headings hereof have been inserted for convenience only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement. 
  

 -7- 

 SECTION 4.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. 
 SECTION 4.6 Amendment. 
 (a) Any term or provision of this
Agreement may be amended by Ohio Bank and FTH LLC without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder, the Issuer, the Swap Counterparty, the Owner Trustee, the Seller, the Servicer or any other Person subject to Section 4.6(f)
and the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. 
 (b) Subject to Section 4.6(f), any term or provision of
this Agreement may be amended by Ohio Bank and FTH LLC without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Servicer, the Seller or any other Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be
necessary or advisable in order to enable Ohio Bank, FTH LLC or any of their Affiliates to comply with or obtain more favorable treatment under any law or regulation or any accounting rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect), it
being a condition to any such amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied. 
 (c) Subject to
Section 4.6(f), this Agreement may also be amended from time to time by Ohio Bank and FTH LLC, with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Note Balance of the Controlling Class for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders. It will not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it will be sufficient if such consent approves 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 the execution thereof by Noteholders will be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe, including the establishment of record dates pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement.

 (d) Prior to the execution of any such amendment, Ohio Bank shall provide written notification of the substance of such
amendment to each Rating Agency; and promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, Ohio Bank shall furnish a copy of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency and the Indenture Trustee. 
 (e) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, FTH LLC, the Owner Trustee, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee shall
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 that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such amendment have
been satisfied. The Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which materially and adversely affects the Owner Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights,
privileges, indemnities, duties or obligations under this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or otherwise. 
  

 -8- 

 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) this Agreement may not be
amended in any way that would materially and adversely affect the Owner Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights, privileges, indemnities, duties or obligations under this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or
otherwise without the prior written consent of such Person; (ii) this agreement may not be amended in any way that would materially and adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Swap Counterparty unless the Swap Counterparty shall have
consented in writing to such amendment; and (iii) this Agreement may not be amended in any way that would significantly change the permitted activities or powers of the Issuer even if such amendment would not have an adverse effect on the
Holders of the Notes without the consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Notes. 
 SECTION 4.7
Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of FTH LLC, the Servicer, Ohio Bank, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in exercising any power or right hereunder (to the extent such Person has any power or right hereunder) shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No notice to or demand on FTH LLC or Ohio Bank in any case shall entitle
it to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No waiver or approval by either party under this Agreement shall, except as may otherwise be stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable to subsequent transactions. No waiver or
approval under this Agreement shall require any similar or dissimilar waiver or approval thereafter to be granted hereunder. 
 SECTION 4.8 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents contain a final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and shall constitute the entire agreement
among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings. There are no unwritten agreements among the parties. 
 SECTION 4.9 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement.

 SECTION 4.10 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the parties
hereto shall agree.

	(c)	 Schedule of Receivables. The information with respect to each Receivable transferred on the Closing Date set forth in the Schedule of Receivables was true
and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date. 

  

	(d)	 Compliance with Law. Each Receivable complied at the time it was originated or made, in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal,
state and local laws, and regulations thereunder, including, to the extent applicable, usury laws, the Federal Truth in Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair Debt

 Schedule I-2 

	(h)	 No Default. Except for payment delinquencies continuing for a period of not more than 30 days as of the Cut-Off Date, the records of the Servicer did not
disclose that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of the Receivable existed as of the Cut-Off Date or that any continuing condition that with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default,
breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of the Receivable had arisen as of the Cut-Off Date.

	(k)	 Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or
pledge of such Receivable would be unlawful, void, or voidable. Ohio Bank has not entered into any agreement with any Obligor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the related Receivable. 

  

	(l)	 Good Title. It is the intention of Ohio Bank that the sale, contribution, transfer, assignment and conveyance herein contemplated constitute an absolute
sale, contribution, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables and that the Receivables not be part of Ohio Bank’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against FTH LLC under any bankruptcy law. No
Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned, conveyed or pledged to any Person other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents or, with respect to a 100% undivided interest in the Receivables related to the Ohio Bank Participated Assets, to FTH
LLC pursuant to the Participation Agreement. As of the Closing Date, and immediately prior to the sale and transfer herein contemplated, Ohio Bank had good and marketable title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens, and, immediately upon
the sale and transfer thereof, FTH LLC will have good and marketable title to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens). 

  

	(m)	 Filings. All filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Issuer a first priority, validly perfected
ownership interest in the Receivables (other than the Related Security with respect thereto), and to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected security interest therein, will be made within ten days of the Closing Date.

  

	(n)	 Priority. The Receivable is not pledged, assigned, sold, subject to a security interest, or otherwise conveyed other than pursuant to the Transaction
Documents or, with respect to a 100% undivided interest in the Receivables related to the Ohio Bank Participated Assets, to FTH LLC pursuant to the Participation Agreement. Ohio Bank has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing
statements against Ohio Bank or FTH LLC that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than 

  

 Schedule I-3 

	 	 
any financing statement relating to security interests granted under the Transaction Documents or that have been terminated. The Receivables Sale Agreement
creates a valid and continuing security interest in the Receivable (other than the Related Security with respect thereto) in favor of FTH LLC which security interest is prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and is enforceable as such
against all other creditors of and purchasers and assignees from FTH LLC. 

  

	(o)	 Characterization of Receivables. Each Receivable constitutes either “electronic chattel paper,” “tangible chattel paper,” an
“account,” a “promissory note” or a “payment intangible,” each as defined in the UCC. 

  

	(p)	 One Original. There is only one executed original, electronically authenticated original or authoritative copy of the contract (in each case within the
meaning of the UCC) related to each Receivable. If such original has been marked, then such original does not have any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than to a party to the
Transaction Documents. 

  

	(q)	 No Defenses. Ohio Bank has no knowledge either of any facts which would give rise to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, or of the
same being asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable. 

  

	(r)	 No Repossession. As of the Cut-Off Date, no Financed Vehicle shall have been repossessed. 

  

	(s)	 Pennsylvania Receivables. If such Receivable has an Obligor with a mailing address in Pennsylvania, then such Receivable is not an “installment sale
contract” within the meaning of the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicles Sales Finance Act, 69 P.S. §601 et. seq. 

  

	(t)	 Electronic Chattel Paper. As of the Cut-Off Date, such Receivable did not cause the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Receivables that
constitute “electronic chattel paper” (as defined in the UCC) to exceed 1.00% of the Net Pool Balance as of the Cut-Off Date. 

  

	(u)	 Prepayments. The Receivable requires the Obligor thereunder to pay, upon any prepayment of such Receivable, an amount that is not less than the
outstanding principal balance of such Receivable plus interest accrued at the applicable Contract Rate to the date of the prepayment.

 ARTICLE III 
 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 
 SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of Michigan Bank. Michigan Bank makes the following representations and warranties as
of the Closing Date on which FTH LLC will be deemed to have relied in acquiring the Michigan Bank Sold Assets. The representations and warranties will survive the conveyance of the Michigan Bank Sold Assets to FTH LLC pursuant to this Agreement, the
conveyance of the Michigan Bank Sold Assets by FTH LLC to the Depositor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the conveyance of the Michigan Bank Sold Assets by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Grant
thereof by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture: 
 (a) Existence and Power. Michigan Bank is
a banking corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization and has, in all material respects, all power and authority to carry on its business as it is now conducted. Michigan Bank has obtained all
necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction where the failure to do so would materially and adversely affect the ability of Michigan Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents or affect the enforceability or
collectibility of the Receivables or any other part of the Michigan Bank Sold Assets. 
 (b) Authorization and No
Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Michigan Bank of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party (i) have been duly 

  

 2 

 
authorized by all necessary action on the part of Michigan Bank and (ii) do not contravene or constitute a default under (A) any applicable law,
rule or regulation, (B) its organizational documents or (C) any material agreement, contract, order or other instrument to which it is a party or its property is subject (other than violations which do not affect the legality, validity or
enforceability of any of such agreements and which, individually or in the aggregate, would not materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by, or Michigan Bank’s ability to perform its obligations under, the Transaction
Documents). 
 (c) No Consent Required. No approval or authorization by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is
required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Michigan Bank of any Transaction Document other than (i) UCC filings, (ii) approvals and authorizations that have previously been obtained and filings that have
previously been made and (iii) approvals, authorizations or filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables or any other part of the Michigan Bank Sold
Assets or would not materially and adversely affect the ability of Michigan Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. 
 (d) Binding Effect. Each Transaction Document to which Michigan Bank is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Michigan Bank enforceable against Michigan Bank in accordance with its
terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and, if
applicable, the rights of creditors of corporations from time to time in effect or by general principles of equity. 
 (e)
No Proceedings. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Michigan Bank, threatened against Michigan Bank before or by any Governmental Authority that (i) assert the invalidity or unenforceability of this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (ii) seek to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (iii) seek any
determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the performance by Michigan Bank of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the collectibility or enforceability of the Receivables, or
(iv) relate to Michigan Bank that would materially and adversely affect the federal or Applicable Tax State income, excise, franchise or similar tax attributes of the Notes. 
 (f) Lien Filings. There are no material judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against Michigan Bank. 
 SECTION 3.2 Representations and Warranties of Michigan Bank as to each Receivable. Michigan Bank hereby makes the representations
and warranties set forth on Schedule I as to the Receivables sold, contributed, transferred, assigned, set over and otherwise conveyed to FTH LLC under this Agreement on which such representations and warranties FTH LLC relies in acquiring
the Receivables. (For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that Michigan Bank makes representations and warranties only with respect to the Receivables described on Schedule III hereto.) Such representations and warranties shall survive the sale
of the Receivables to the Seller under the Purchase Agreement, the sale of the Receivables by the Seller to the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Grant of the Receivables by 

  

 3 

 
the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document, Michigan Bank shall not be required to notify any insurer with respect to any Insurance Policy obtained by an Obligor or to notify any Dealer about any aspect of the transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 
 SECTION 3.3 Repurchase upon Breach. Upon discovery by or notice to FTH LLC or Michigan Bank of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 at the time such representations and warranties were made which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders, the party discovering such breach or
receiving such notice shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party; provided, that delivery of the Servicer’s Certificate shall be deemed to constitute prompt notice of such breach; provided, further, that
the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of Michigan Bank hereunder. If Michigan Bank does not correct or cure such breach prior to the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if Michigan Bank elects, an
earlier date) after the date that Michigan Bank became aware or was notified of such breach, then Michigan Bank shall purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach from FTH LLC on the Payment Date following the end of such
Collection Period. Any such breach or failure will not be deemed to have a material and adverse effect if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of FTH LLC (or its assignee) to receive and retain timely payment in full on such
Receivable. Any such purchase by Michigan Bank shall be at a price equal to the Repurchase Price. In consideration for such repurchase, Michigan Bank shall make (or shall cause to be made) a payment to FTH LLC equal to the Repurchase Price by
depositing such amount into the Collection Account prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time on such Payment Date. Upon payment of such Repurchase Price by Michigan Bank, FTH LLC shall release and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release,
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as may be reasonably requested by Michigan Bank to evidence such release, transfer or assignment or more effectively vest in Michigan Bank or its designee any Receivable
repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of Michigan Bank to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to FTH LLC. 
 SECTION 3.4 Protection of Title. 
 (a) Michigan Bank shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation and other statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully
to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of FTH LLC under this Agreement in the Receivables. Michigan Bank shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to FTH LLC file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided
above, as soon as available following such filing. 
 (b) The Michigan Bank will notify FTH LLC in writing within ten
(10) days following the occurrence of (i) any change in the Michigan Bank’s organizational structure as a banking corporation, (ii) any change in the Michigan Bank’s “location” (within the meaning of
Section 9-307 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) and (iii) any change in the Michigan Bank’s name and shall have taken all action prior to making such change (or shall have made arrangements to take such action substantially
simultaneously with such change, if it is not 

  

 4 

 
possible to take such action in advance) reasonably necessary or advisable in the opinion of FTH LLC to amend all previously filed financing statements or
continuation statements described in paragraph (a) above. The Michigan Bank will at all times maintain its “location” within the United States. 
 (c) Michigan Bank shall maintain (or shall cause the Servicer to maintain) its computer systems so that, from time to time after the conveyance under this Agreement of the Receivables, the master
computer records (including any backup archives, it being understood that any such backup archives may not reflect such interest until up to thirty-five (35) days after the applicable changes are made to such master computer records) that refer
to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the interest of FTH LLC (or any subsequent assignee of FTH LLC) in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by such Person. Indication of such Person’s interest in a Receivable shall not be
deleted from or modified on such computer systems until, and only until, the related Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased. 
 (d) If at any time Michigan Bank shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in motor vehicle receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, Michigan
Bank shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records or printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly
that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by FTH LLC (or any subsequent assignee of FTH LLC). 
 SECTION 3.5 Other
Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances and grants of security interests pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, Michigan Bank shall not sell, pledge, assign or transfer the Receivables or other property
transferred to FTH LLC to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any interest therein, and Michigan Bank shall defend the right, title and interest of FTH LLC in, to and under
such Receivables or other property transferred to FTH LLC against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Michigan Bank. 
 SECTION 3.6 Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Michigan Bank hereby makes the perfection representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Schedule II hereto to FTH LLC and FTH
LLC shall be deemed to have relied on such representations, warranties and covenants in acquiring the Michigan Bank Sold Assets. 
 SECTION 3.7 FDIC Rule; Official Record. 
 (a) The parties hereto intend that (A) the FDIC Rule shall
apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (B) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, taken as a whole, constitute a “securitization”
within the meaning of the FDIC Rule and (C) the transfer of Receivables and other property pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a sale, and not secured borrowing, for accounting purposes as it relates to the FDIC Rule. 
  

 5 

 (b) So long as the Notes remain outstanding, this Agreement shall be treated as an
official record of Michigan Bank within the meaning of Section 13(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1823(e)). 
 ARTICLE IV 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION 4.1 Transfers Intended as Sale; Security Interest. 
 (a) Each of the parties
hereto expressly intends and agrees that the transfers contemplated and effected under this Agreement are complete and absolute sales and contributions rather than pledges or assignments of only a security interest and shall be given effect as such
for all purposes. It is further the intention of the parties hereto that the Receivables and other Michigan Bank Sold Assets shall not be part of Michigan Bank’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of Michigan Bank. The sales and
transfers by Michigan Bank of the Receivables and related Michigan Bank Sold Assets hereunder are and shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty (express or implied) by, Michigan Bank, except as otherwise specifically provided
herein. The limited rights of recourse specified herein against Michigan Bank are intended to provide a remedy for breach of representations and warranties relating to the condition of the property sold, rather than to the collectibility of the
Receivables. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Receivables and other Michigan Bank Sold Assets are
held to be property of Michigan Bank, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create indebtedness or a security interest in the Receivables and other Michigan Bank Sold Assets, then it is intended that: 
 (i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC
and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; 
 (ii) The conveyance provided for in
Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be a grant by Michigan Bank of, and Michigan Bank hereby grants to FTH LLC, a security interest in all of its right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired, in and to the Receivables and other Michigan Bank Sold Assets, to secure such indebtedness and the performance of the obligations of Michigan Bank hereunder; 
 (iii) The possession by FTH LLC or its agent of the Receivable Files and any other property that constitute instruments,
money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by FTH LLC or a person designated by FTH LLC, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC
and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; and 
 (iv) Notifications to Persons holding such property,
and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents 

  

 6 

 
(as applicable) of FTH LLC for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. 
 SECTION 4.2 Notices, Etc. All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered or mailed
by registered or certified first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, hand delivery, prepaid courier service, or by facsimile and addressed in each case to Fifth Third Bank, One Vandenberg Center, 111 Lyon Street N.W., Grand Rapids, Michigan

shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

requirements as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe, including the establishment of record dates pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement. 
 (d) Prior to the execution of any such amendment, Michigan Bank shall provide written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Rating Agency; and promptly after the execution of any such amendment or
consent, Michigan Bank shall furnish a copy of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency and the Indenture Trustee.

otherwise.

the part of FTH LLC, the Servicer, Michigan Bank, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in exercising any power or right hereunder (to the extent such Person has any power or right hereunder) shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No notice to or demand on FTH LLC or Michigan Bank in any case shall entitle it to any notice or demand in
similar or other 

  

 8 

 
circumstances. No waiver or approval by either party under this Agreement shall, except as may otherwise be stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable
to subsequent transactions. No waiver or approval under this Agreement shall require any similar or dissimilar waiver or approval thereafter to be granted hereunder.

 (c) Schedule of Receivables. The information with respect to each
Receivable transferred on the Closing Date set forth in the Schedule of Receivables was true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date. 
 (d) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable complied at the time it was originated or made, in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and local laws, and regulations thereunder,
including, to the extent applicable, usury laws, the Federal Truth in Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Fair Credit Billing
Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Federal Reserve Board Regulations B and Z, the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and any other consumer credit, equal

more than 30 days as of the Cut-Off Date, the records of the Servicer did not disclose that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of the Receivable existed as of the Cut-Off Date or that any continuing
condition that with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of the Receivable had arisen as of the Cut-Off Date.

policy. 
 (j) No Government Obligor. The Obligor on each Receivable is not the United States of America or any state
thereof or any local government, or any agency, department, political subdivision or instrumentality of the United States of America or any state thereof or any local government. 
 (k) Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale,
transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge of such Receivable would be unlawful, void, or voidable. Michigan Bank has not entered into any agreement with any Obligor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the related Receivable.

 (l) Good Title. It is the intention of Michigan Bank that the sale, contribution, transfer, assignment and
conveyance herein contemplated constitute an absolute sale, contribution, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables and that the Receivables not be part of Michigan Bank’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition
by or against FTH LLC under any bankruptcy law. No Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned, conveyed or pledged to any Person other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents. As of the Closing Date, and immediately prior to the sale and
transfer herein contemplated, Michigan Bank had good and marketable title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens, and, immediately upon the sale and transfer thereof, FTH LLC will have good and marketable title to each Receivable, free and
clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens). 
 (m) Filings. All filings (including, without limitation, UCC
filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Issuer a first priority, validly perfected ownership interest in the Receivables (other than the Related Security with respect thereto), and to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected
security interest therein, will be made within ten days of the Closing Date. 
 (n) Priority. The Receivable is not
pledged, assigned, sold, subject to a security interest, or otherwise conveyed other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents. Michigan Bank has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against Michigan Bank or FTH
LLC that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to security interests granted under the Transaction Documents or that have been terminated. The Receivables Sale Agreement creates a
valid and continuing security interest in the Receivable (other than the Related Security with respect thereto) in favor of FTH LLC which security interest is prior to all other Liens (other than 

  

					
		  	Schedule I-3	  	

 
Permitted Liens) and is enforceable as such against all other creditors of and purchasers and assignees from FTH LLC. 
 (o) Characterization of Receivables. Each Receivable constitutes either “electronic chattel paper,” “tangible
chattel paper,” an “account,” a “promissory note” or a “payment intangible,” each as defined in the UCC. 
 (p) One Original. There is only one executed original, electronically authenticated original or authoritative copy of the contract (in each case within the meaning of the UCC) related to each Receivable. If
such original has been marked, then such original does not have any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than to a party to the Transaction Documents. 
 (q) No Defenses. Michigan Bank has no knowledge either of any facts which would give rise to any right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense, or of the same being asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable. 
 (r) No
Repossession. As of the Cut-Off Date, no Financed Vehicle shall have been repossessed. 
 (s) Pennsylvania
Receivables. If such Receivable has an Obligor with a mailing address in Pennsylvania, then such Receivable is not an “installment sale contract” within the meaning of the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicles Sales Finance Act, 69 P.S.
§601 et. seq. 
 (t) Electronic Chattel Paper. As of the Cut-Off Date, such Receivable did not cause the
