    Section 2.01.  Name.  The trust created pursuant to the Original Trust Agreement and continued hereby shall be known as “Mercedes-Benz Auto Receivables Trust

      2022-1”, in which name the Owner Trustee may conduct the business of the Issuer, make and execute contracts and other instruments on behalf of the Issuer and sue and be sued.

     

    Section 2.02.  Office.  The office of the Issuer shall be in care of the Owner Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or at such other address in the State of Delaware as the Owner Trustee may
      designate by written notice to the Trustees and the Certificateholders.

     

    Section 2.03.  Purposes and Powers.

     

    (a)          The purpose of the Issuer is to engage in the following activities:

     

    (i)          to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Certificates pursuant to this Agreement and to convey and deliver the Securities upon the written order of the
      Depositor;

     

    (ii)         to issue additional notes or certificates pursuant to one or more supplemental indentures or amendments to this Agreement and to transfer all or a portion of such
      securities to the Depositor, subject to compliance with the Basic Documents, in exchange for all or a portion of the Certificates; provided, that:

     

    (A)          the rights of the holders of such additional securities, when taken as a whole, are no greater than the rights of the Certificateholders immediately prior to the issuance
      of such additional securities (unless all Noteholders otherwise consent);

     

    (B)          the Rating Agencies have provided written confirmation that the issuance of the additional securities will not adversely affect the ratings of any outstanding Class of
      Notes or, if then rated by any Rating Agency, of the Certificates; and

     

    (C)          the Depositor delivers an opinion to the Trustees that the issuance of the additional securities will not (1) adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any
      Noteholder, (2) cause any Outstanding Note to be deemed sold or exchanged for United States federal income tax purposes, (3) cause the Issuer to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for United States
      federal income tax purposes or (4) adversely affect the treatment of the Outstanding Notes as debt for United States federal income tax purposes;

     

    (iii)        to enter into and perform its obligations under any interest rate protection or swap agreement or agreements between the Issuer and one or more counterparties;

     

    (iv)        to permit the Depositor, with the proceeds of the sale of the Notes, to (A) purchase the Receivables on the Closing Date, (B) fund the Reserve Fund with an amount equal to
      the Reserve Fund Deposit, (C) pay the organizational, start-up and transactional expenses of the Issuer and (D) to retain the balance;

      

    
      2

      
        

    

    (v)          to pay interest on and principal of the Notes to the Noteholders and to cause any Excess Collections to be paid to the Certificateholders in accordance with the
      Indenture;

     

    (vi)        to Grant the Trust Property to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture to secure payments on the Notes;

     

    (vii)       to enter into and perform its obligations under the Issuer Basic Documents; and

     

    (viii)      to engage in those activities, including entering into agreements, that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or
      connected therewith.

     

    (b)          The Issuer is hereby authorized to engage in the foregoing activities.  The Issuer shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or other than as required or
      authorized by the terms of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

     

    Section 2.04.  Appointment of Owner Trustee.  The Depositor hereby confirms the appointment of the Owner Trustee as trustee of the Issuer effective as of the date of the Original Trust
      Agreement, to have all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

     

    Section 2.05.  Initial Capital Contribution of Trust Property.  The Depositor has previously sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed and set over to the Owner Trustee, as of the date of the
      Original Trust Agreement, the sum of $1.  The Owner Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt in trust from the Depositor, of the foregoing contribution, which shall constitute the initial Owner Trust Estate.  The Depositor shall pay the organizational
      expenses of the Issuer as they may arise or shall, upon the request of the Owner Trustee, promptly reimburse the Owner Trustee for any such expenses paid by the Owner Trustee.  On the Closing Date, the Depositor will sell, transfer, assign and convey
      to the Issuer certain property to be included in the Trust Property pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Issuer will issue and convey the Securities to or upon the order of the Depositor.

     

    Section 2.06.  Declaration of Trust.  The Owner Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the Trust Property in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit
      of the Certificateholders, subject to the obligations of the Issuer under the Basic Documents.  It is the intention of the parties that (i) the Issuer constitute a statutory trust under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and that this Agreement
      constitute the governing instrument of such statutory trust and (ii) solely for United States federal income and franchise tax purposes, the Issuer shall be treated as a fixed investment trust or grantor trust or, if not so treated and there is only
      one beneficial owner of the equity of the Issuer, as an entity that is disregarded as separate from such owner.  If, however, the Issuer is not treated as a fixed investment trust or a grantor trust for such purposes, and there are two or more
      beneficial owners of the equity of the Issuer, the Issuer shall be treated as a partnership (other than an association or publicly traded partnership) for purposes of United States federal income, State and local income and franchise tax and any
      other income taxes, with the assets of the partnership being the Receivables and other assets held by the Issuer, the partners of the partnership being the Certificateholders and any Holders of Notes that are required by the IRS to be treated as
      equity in the Issuer, and the remaining Notes constituting indebtedness of the partnership.  The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Issuer will file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary
      returns, reports and other forms consistent with the foregoing characterization of the Issuer for such tax purposes.  Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Delaware
      Statutory Trust Act with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Issuer as set forth in Section 2.03(a).  The Owner Trustee has filed the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State.

      

    
      3

      
        

    

    Section 2.07.  Liability of Certificateholders.  The Certificateholders shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit
      organized under the general corporation law of the State of Delaware.

     

    Section 2.08.  Title to Trust Property.  Legal title to the Trust Property shall be vested at all times in the Issuer as a separate legal entity except where Applicable Law in any jurisdiction
      requires title to any part of the Trust Property to be vested in a trustee or trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Owner Trustee, a co-trustee and/or a separate trustee, as the case may be; provided, that concurrently
      with or prior to title being deemed to be vested in a co-trustee and/or separate trustee, such trustee must provide a written grant of a security interest in the Trust Property to the Indenture Trustee and must authorize the filing of one or more
      financing statements to perfect the Indenture Trustee’s security interest.

     

    Section 2.09.  Situs of Issuer.  The Issuer will be located and administered in the State of Delaware and the State of Michigan.  Any bank accounts maintained by the Owner Trustee on behalf of
      the Issuer shall be located in the States of Delaware or New York.  The Issuer shall not have any employees in any State other than the State of Delaware; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit the Owner Trustee from having
      employees within or outside of the State of Delaware.  Payments will be received by the Issuer only in the States of Delaware or New York, and payments will be made by the Issuer only from the States of Delaware or New York.  The only office of the
      Issuer will be at the Corporate Trust Office of the Owner Trustee in the State of Delaware.

     

    Section 2.10.  Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.  The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee that:

     

    (i)          The Depositor is duly formed and validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power and authority to own
      its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently conducted.

     

    (ii)         The Depositor is not a Benefit Plan.

      

    
      4

      
        

    

    (iii)        The Depositor is duly qualified to do business as a foreign limited liability company in good standing and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all
      jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify or obtain such licenses and approvals would, in the reasonable judgment of the Depositor, materially and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or
      enforceability of, this Agreement.

     

    (iv)         The Depositor has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out its terms and to transfer and assign the property to be transferred and
      assigned to and deposited with the Issuer; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and such transfer, assignment and deposit have been duly authorized by the Depositor by all necessary limited liability company action.

     

    (v)          This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be subject to or
      limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such
      enforceability shall be considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.

     

    (vi)         The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do 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 certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Depositor, or any material indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the
      Depositor is a party or by which it is bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any properties of the Depositor pursuant to the terms of any such material indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than pursuant to the
      Basic Documents); nor violate any Applicable Law or, to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Depositor of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties.

     

    (vii)       To the knowledge of the Depositor, there are no Proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against the Depositor before any Governmental Authority having
      jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties (a) asserting the invalidity of any Basic Document, (b) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by any Basic Document, (c) seeking any determination or ruling that
      would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, any Depositor Basic Document or (d) seeking any determination or ruling that would adversely affect the United
      States federal income tax attributes of the Issuer or the Securities.

     

    Section 2.11.  Tax Matters.  The Certificateholders acknowledge that it is their intent and that they understand it is the intent of the Depositor and the Servicer that, for purposes of United
      States federal income, State and local income and franchise taxes and any other taxes, the Issuer shall be treated as a fixed investment trust or grantor trust or, if not so treated and there is only one beneficial owner of the equity of the Issuer,
      as an entity that is disregarded as separate from such owner.  If, however, the Issuer is not treated as a fixed investment trust or as a grantor trust for such purposes, and if there are two or more beneficial owners of the equity of the Issuer, the
      Issuer shall be treated as a partnership (other than an association or publicly traded partnership) for purposes of United States federal income, State and local income and franchise taxes and any other taxes, and income, gain or loss of the Issuer
      for any month as determined for United States federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes shall be allocated among the Certificateholders as of the Record Date occurring within such month, in proportion to their ownership of the
      Certificate Percentage Interests on such date.  The Depositor hereby agrees and each Certificateholder by acceptance of a Certificate agrees to such treatment and each agrees to take no action inconsistent with the foregoing characterization.

     

    The Depositor is authorized to modify the allocations in this Section if necessary or appropriate, in its sole discretion, for the allocations to reflect fairly the economic income, gain or loss to the
      Certificateholders or as otherwise required by the Code.

    ARTICLE THREE

    CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

     

    Section 3.01.  Initial Ownership.  Upon the formation of the Issuer by the contribution and conveyance by the Depositor as described in Section 2.05 and until the issuance of the Certificates,
      the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Issuer.

     

    Section 3.02.  The Certificates.

     

    (a)          The Certificates shall be issued in one or more registered, definitive, physical certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit A.  The Certificates may be in printed or typewritten form
      and shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee.  Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall
      have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Issuer, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the
      authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates.

     

    (b)          If Transfer of a Certificate is permitted pursuant to this Section and Section 3.04, the transferee of such Certificate shall become a Certificateholder, and shall be entitled to the rights
      and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

     

    (c)          The Depositor as the sole initial Certificateholder may exchange all or a portion of the Certificates for additional securities issued by the Issuer pursuant to one or more supplemental
      indentures to the Indenture or amendments to this Agreement.  Such additional securities may consist of one or more classes of notes, certificates or other securities, as directed by the Depositor, each having the characteristics, rights and
      obligations as may be directed by the Depositor (which may include subordination to one or more other classes of such additional securities), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the rights of the holders of such additional
      securities, when taken as a whole, are no greater than the rights of the Certificateholders immediately prior to the issuance of such additional securities (unless the Holders of 100% of the Notes Outstanding otherwise consent); (ii) the Rating
      Agencies have provided written confirmation that the issuance of such additional securities will not adversely affect the ratings of the Notes; and (iii) the Depositor has provided to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
      to the effect that the issuance of such additional securities will not (A) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder, (B) cause any Note to be deemed sold or exchanged for United States federal income tax purposes, (C)
      cause the Issuer to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes or (D) adversely affect the treatment of the Notes as debt for United States federal income tax
      purposes.  Without limiting the foregoing, one or more classes of such additional securities may, if so directed by the Depositor, be secured by all or a portion of the Trust Estate, so long as such security interest is subordinated in priority to
      the security interest granted to the Noteholders pursuant to the Indenture.  Subject to this Section and the terms of the other Basic Documents, the Issuer will take (at the expense of the Depositor) all actions requested by the Depositor to
      facilitate the issuance and sale of any such additional securities or the grant and perfection of any security interest granted pursuant to this Section, including the authorization of the filing of any financing statements in jurisdictions deemed
      necessary or advisable by the Depositor to perfect such security interest.

     

    
      6

      
        

    

    Section 3.03.  Authentication and Delivery of Certificates.  Concurrently with the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall
      execute the Certificates on behalf of the Issuer, and cause the Certificates to be authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its president, any Vice President, its treasurer, any assistant treasurer, its
      secretary or any assistant secretary, without further limited liability company action by the Depositor.  No Certificate shall entitle the respective Certificateholder to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there
      shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Certificate Registrar or its authenticating agent, by manual signature; and such authentication shall constitute
      conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.  Upon issuance, authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms hereof, the
      Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

     

    Section 3.04.  Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

     

    (a)          The Indenture Trustee initially shall be the registrar (the “Certificate Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Certificates and Transfers of Certificates as herein provided.  The
      Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a register (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar
      shall provide for the registration of Certificates and the registration of Transfers of Certificates.  Upon any resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall, upon receipt of written instructions from the
      Depositor, promptly appoint a successor thereto.

     

    No transfer of a Certificate shall be made to any Person unless (i) the Certificate Registrar has received an opinion of Independent counsel that such action will not cause the Issuer to be treated as
      an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes and (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees to take positions for tax purposes consistent with the tax positions agreed to be taken
      by the Certificateholder.  For the avoidance of doubt, any transfer of a Certificate by a Certificateholder other than the initial Certificateholder or a transfer of all of the Certificates to an Affiliate of the transferee also must comply with the
      foregoing provision.  No Certificate (other than the Certificates issued to and held by the Depositor) may be subdivided upon transfer or exchange in a manner such that the resulting Certificate represents less than a 2.00% Certificate Percentage
      Interest (or such other amount as the Depositor may determine in order to prevent the Issuer from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code, but in no event less than a 1.00% Certificate Percentage Interest).  

    

     

    

    
      7

      
        

    

    (b)          The Certificates may not be acquired by or for the account of a Person that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, unless an Opinion of Counsel
      is delivered to the Certificate Registrar to the effect that such transfer to a non-United States person will not cause the Issuer to be (i) subject to an additional United States federal income tax or to be required to withhold tax with respect to
      such transferee or (ii) treated as engaged in a United States trade or business within the meaning of the Code.  Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Certificateholder
      is not a Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law and is not a Person acting on behalf of a Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law
      or a Person using the assets of a Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law to effect the transfer of such Certificate.

     

    To the extent permitted under Applicable Law (including ERISA), neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of any
      Certificate that is in fact not permitted under Applicable Law (including ERISA) or for taking any other action with respect to such Certificate under the provisions of this Agreement so long as such Transfer was registered by the Owner Trustee or
      the Certificate Registrar in accordance with this Agreement.

     

    (c)          Upon surrender by a Certificateholder for registration of Transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.08, and
      upon compliance with any provisions of this Agreement relating to such Transfer, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Certificateholder making
      such surrender, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in any authorized denomination evidencing the same aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest.  Each Certificate presented or surrendered for
      registration of Transfer shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W-9, and such other documentation as may be required by the Owner Trustee in order to comply with Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, in
      form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder or its attorney duly authorized in writing.  Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer shall be canceled and
      subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice.  No service charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment
      of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any Transfer of Certificates.  No Transfer will be effectuated hereunder unless the Owner Trustee has received the transfer documentation required
      hereunder.

     

    (d)          All Certificates surrendered for registration of Transfer, if surrendered to the Issuer, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Issuer under this Agreement,
      shall be delivered to the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar and promptly cancelled by it, and no Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The Owner Trustee and
      the Certificate Registrar shall dispose of cancelled Certificates in accordance with their normal practice.

     

    (e)          As of the date hereof, the Depositor intends to retain the Certificates.  Although there is no present intent to effect any subsequent transfer of the Certificates, in the event that the
      Depositor did intend to transfer any of the Certificates to a third party, the parties to this Agreement will amend this Agreement as necessary to prevent any application of the Treasury Regulations under Section 385 of the Code (including any
      subsequent or successor provision) that would result in the recharacterization of any of the Notes as equity.

    Section 3.05.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

     

    (a)          If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
      Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice that such Certificate has been acquired by
      a Protected Purchaser, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar on behalf of the Issuer shall execute and the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar or either of their authenticating agents shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or
      in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of a like tenor and Certificate Percentage Interest.  If, after the delivery of such replacement Certificate or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen
      Certificate, a Protected Purchaser of the original Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Certificate was issued presents for payment such original Certificate, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall be entitled to
      recover such replacement Certificate (or such payment) from the Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any
      assignee of such Person, except a Protected Purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate
      Registrar in connection therewith.  Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Issuer, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be
      found at any time.

     

    (b)          Upon the issuance of any replacement Certificate under this Section, the Issuer may require the payment by the Certificateholder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
      charge that may be imposed in connection with such issuance and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee) related thereto.

     

    (c)          Every replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional contractual
      obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other
      Certificates duly issued hereunder.

     

    (d)          The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost
      or stolen Certificates.

     

    Section 3.06.  Persons Deemed Certificateholders.  Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of Transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and
      their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name such Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register (as of the day of determination) as the Certificateholder of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
      Section 5.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent or their respective agents shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

     

    
      9

      
        

    

    Section 3.07.  Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.  The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Indenture
      Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Servicer, the Depositor or either Trustee, as the case may be, a list, in such form as the requesting
      party may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date.  If three or more Certificateholders, or one or more Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate
      Certificate Percentage Interests (hereinafter referred to as the “Applicants”), apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their
      rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such Applicants propose to transmit (which shall be deemed to be a purpose reasonably related to the Applicants’ interest in
      the Issuer), then the Certificate Registrar shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders.  Each Certificateholder, by
      receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which
      such information was derived.

     

    Section 3.08.  Maintenance of Office or Agency.  The Issuer shall maintain an office or offices or agency or agencies where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in
      respect of the Basic Documents may be served.  The Issuer initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Owner Trustee for such purposes and will promptly notify the Depositor and the Owner Trustee of any change in the location of such
      office.  The office of the Certificate Registrar is located at U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, 111 E. Fillmore Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota 55107, Attention: Bondholder Services – MBART 2022-1.

     

    Section 3.09.  No Legal Title to Trust Property in Certificateholders.  The Certificateholders shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Property.  The Certificateholders shall be
      entitled to receive distributions with respect to their undivided beneficial interest therein only in accordance with Articles Five and Nine.  No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any right, title or interest of the Certificateholders to
      and in their beneficial interest in the Trust Property shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part of the Trust Property.

     

    Section 3.10.  No Recourse.  Each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate, acknowledges that the Certificates represent beneficial interests in the Issuer only and do not represent
      interests in or obligations of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, either Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or
      contemplated in the Certificates or any Basic Document.

     

    
      10

      
        

    

    Section 3.11.  Appointment of Paying Agent.  The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with the Indenture and shall report the amount of such distributions to
      the Owner Trustee.  The Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above.  The Owner Trustee, at the direction of the Holders of Certificates
      evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests, may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the majority Holders determines that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this
      Agreement in any material respect.  The Paying Agent shall initially be the Indenture Trustee, and any co-paying agent chosen by the Paying Agent that is acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor.  Each Paying Agent shall be permitted to
      resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor.  In the event that the Indenture Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee, upon receipt of written instruction from the Depositor,
      shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company).  The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Owner
      Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that, as Paying Agent, such successor or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the
      Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders.  The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying
      Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee.  If at any time the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent, the rights, privileges, protections and indemnities afforded to the Owner Trustee hereunder shall
      apply equally to the Owner Trustee in its role as Paying Agent.  Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

     

    Section 3.12.  Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.  Certificateholders shall not be personally liable for obligations of the Issuer.  The interests represented by the Certificates shall
      be nonassessable for any losses or expenses of the Issuer or for any reason whatsoever, and, upon the authentication thereof by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Sections 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05, the Certificates are and shall be deemed fully paid.

    (d)          the amendment of the Administration Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or mistake or to amend or supplement any provision in a manner or to add any provision that
      would not materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders; or

      12

      
        

    

    Section 4.04.  Restrictions on Certificateholders’ Power.  The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be
      contrary to any obligation of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee under any Basic Document or would be contrary to Section 2.03, nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given.

     

    Section 4.05.  Majority Control.  Except as expressly provided herein, (i) any action that may be taken by the Certificateholders under this Agreement may be taken by the Holders of Certificates
      evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests and (ii) any written notice of the Certificateholders delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be effective if signed by Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than

    ARTICLE FIVE

     APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

     

    Section 5.01.  Application of Trust Funds.

     

    (a)          On each Payment Date, upon receipt from the Servicer of an Investor Report pursuant to Section 3.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall, directly or through a
      Paying Agent, distribute or cause to be distributed, to the Certificateholders, in proportion to each Certificateholder’s Certificate Percentage Interest, available amounts on deposit in the Collection Account on such Payment Date pursuant to Section
      4.04 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and payable to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 2.08 of the Indenture.

     

    (b)          So long as the Depositor or one or more of its Affiliates are the sole Certificateholders, on or following the Payment Date on which the Note Balance has been reduced to zero and the
      Indenture has been discharged, the Depositor may direct the Owner Trustee in writing to distribute, and upon receipt of such direction the Owner Trustee shall distribute to or upon the order of the Depositor in accordance with Section 9.01(c) or
      9.01(d), the remaining assets of the Issuer.

     

    (c)          On each Payment Date, the Owner Trustee shall, directly or through a Paying Agent, send or make available electronically to each Certificateholder of record the related Investor Report
      provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     

    (d)          In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer’s payment (or, if the Issuer is treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, allocations of income)
      to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Certificateholder in accordance with this Section.  The Owner Trustee and each Paying Agent are hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise
      distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any such withholding tax that is legally owed by the Issuer (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee or any Paying Agent from contesting any such tax in
      appropriate Proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by Applicable Law, pending the outcome of such Proceedings, it being understood that neither the Owner Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any duty to contest such
      amounts).  The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Issuer for remittance to the appropriate taxing authority.  If
      the Owner Trustee or a Paying Agent determines that there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee or any Paying Agent may, in its sole
      discretion, withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section.  If a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee and each Paying Agent shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in
      making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee and each Paying Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred, as applicable.

     

    
      14

      
        

    

    Section 5.02.  Method of Payment.  Subject to Section 9.01(c) and 9.01(d), distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Payment Date shall be made by the Owner Trustee or a
      Paying Agent to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such
      Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Payment Date and such Certificateholder is the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or, if
      not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Certificate will be payable only upon presentation
      and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Certificate Registrar pursuant to Section 3.08.

     

    Section 5.03.  No Segregation of Monies; No Interest.  Subject to Section 5.01, monies received by the Owner Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required
      by the Basic Documents or Applicable Law, and shall be deposited uninvested in a non-interest-bearing trust account under such general conditions as may be prescribed by Applicable Law and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any interest
      thereon.

     

    Section 5.04.  Accounting and Reports to Certificateholders, the IRS and Others.  The Owner Trustee shall, upon receipt of and based on information provided by the Seller or the Servicer, (i)
      maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Issuer on the basis of a fiscal year ending December 31 and, based on the accrual method of accounting, (ii) deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable
      Treasury Regulations, such information as may be required (including Schedule K-1) to enable such Certificateholder to prepare its United States federal and State income tax returns, (iii) file such tax returns relating to the Issuer (including a
      partnership information return, IRS Form 1065, if required) and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable State or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Issuer’s
      characterization as a partnership, if so characterized, for United States federal income tax purposes, (iv) cause such tax returns to be signed in the manner required by Applicable Law and (v) collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as
      described in and in accordance with Section 5.01(d) with respect to income or distributions to Certificateholders.  The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market
      discount that accrues with respect to the Receivables.  The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall not make the election provided under Section 754 of the Code.

     

    The Owner Trustee may satisfy its obligations with respect to this Section and Section 5.01(d) by retaining, at the expense of the Seller, Accountants selected by the Seller.  The Owner Trustee may
      require the Accountants to provide to the Owner Trustee, on or before December 31, 2022, a letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee as to whether any United States federal tax withholding on the Certificates is then required
      and, if required, the procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the requirements of the Code.  The Accountants shall be required to update such letter in each instance that any additional tax withholding is subsequently required
      or any previously required tax withholding shall no longer be required.  The Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its obligations pursuant to this Section and Section 5.01(d) upon its retention of the Accountants, and the Owner Trustee
      shall not have any liability with respect to the default, negligence or misconduct of the Accountants.  The Owner Trustee shall be entitled to rely on and shall be fully protected in so relying, upon the letter, referred to in this paragraph, from
      the Accountants and shall have no duty or obligation to verify the accuracy of the contents of such letter.

      

    

    Section 5.05.  Signature on Returns; Partnership Representative.

     

    (a)          In the event that the Issuer is classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, the Person that holds, or is deemed to hold under the Code, the Depositor, for as
      long as it is a Holder of a Certificate, and thereafter, the Holder of the Certificate with the largest Certificate Percentage Interest, will prepare and sign, on behalf of the Issuer, the tax returns of the Issuer.

     

    (b)          The entity that is required to prepare the tax returns of the Issuer pursuant to Section 5.05(a) shall be the partnership representative, within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code. 
      The partnership representative shall, (i) if the Issuer is eligible, cause the Issuer to elect, pursuant to Section 6221(b) of the Code, that Section 6221(a) of the Code shall not apply to the Issuer or (ii) if the election in Section 6221(b) of the
      Code is not available, to the extent applicable, cause the Issuer to make the election under Section 6226(a) of the Code.

    ARTICLE SIX

    AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE

     

    Section 6.01.  General Authority.  The Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver each Issuer Basic Document and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to
      or contemplated by any Issuer Basic Document and any amendment or other agreement or instrument, in each case in such form as the Depositor shall approve, as evidenced conclusively by the Owner Trustee’s execution thereof.  In addition to the
      foregoing, the Owner Trustee is authorized, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Issuer pursuant to the Basic Documents.  The Owner Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action as the Administrator or
      Certificateholders recommends with respect to the Basic Documents.

     

    Section 6.02.  General Duties.

     

    (a)          It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to administer the Issuer for the
      benefit of the Certificateholders, subject to the Basic Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder
      and to the extent expressly provided for under the other Basic Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Owner Trustee or the Issuer hereunder or under any
      other Basic Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement.  The Owner Trustee agrees to perform its duties under this Agreement
      in good faith and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, neither the Owner Trustee nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall have any implied duties
      (including fiduciary duties) or liabilities otherwise existing at law or in equity with respect to the Issuer, which implied duties and liabilities are hereby eliminated.  Every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the
      liability of or affording protection to the Owner Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Article Six and Article Seven.

     

    (b)          The Owner Trustee shall cooperate with the Administrator in carrying out the Administrator’s obligation to qualify and preserve the Issuer’s qualification to do business in each
      jurisdiction, if any, in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes, the Receivables and any other instrument and agreement included in the Trust Property; provided that
      the Owner Trustee may rely on advice of counsel with respect to such obligation.

     

    Section 6.03.  Action Upon Instruction.

     

    (a)          Subject to Article Four, and in accordance with the terms of the Issuer Basic Documents, the Certificateholders (or, to the extent set forth in this Agreement, the Depositor) may, by
      written instruction, direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Issuer.  Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Certificateholders or the Depositor, as applicable, pursuant to Article Four.  In addition, the
      Administrator may direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Issuer in accordance with Section 6.01 and the Administration Agreement.

      

    
      16

      
        

    

    (b)          The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement or any other Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised
      by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms of any Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to Applicable Law.

     

    (c)          Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of any Basic Document or in the event that the Owner Trustee is
      unsure as to the application of any provision of any Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits any
      determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be
      appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders of record as of the preceding Record Date requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any
      written instruction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 51% of the Certificate Percentage Interests received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person.  If the Owner Trustee shall not have received
      appropriate written instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain
      from taking such action, not inconsistent with the Basic Documents as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

     

    (d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of the Depositor or Certificateholders to take any action affecting the Trust Property shall be subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee under
      the Indenture.

     

    Section 6.04.  No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions.  The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register,
      record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Trust Property, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee or the Issuer is a party, except as
      expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into any Basic Document against the Owner Trustee. 
      The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing statements, amendment or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any Lien granted to it hereunder or to
      prepare or file any Commission filing for the Issuer or to record any Basic Document.  The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any Liens on any part of
      the Trust Property that result from actions by, or claims against, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust Property.

     

    
      17

      
        

    

    Section 6.05.  No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions.  The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust
      Property except in accordance with (i) the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the Basic Documents and (iii) any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to
      Section 6.03.

     

    Section 6.06.  Restrictions.  The Owner Trustee shall not take any action that (i) is inconsistent with the purposes of the Issuer set forth in Section 2.03 or (ii) to the actual knowledge of a
      Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee, would (a) affect the treatment of the Notes as indebtedness for United States federal income or State income or franchise tax purposes, (b) be deemed to cause a taxable exchange of the Notes for United States
      federal income or State income or franchise tax purposes or (c) cause the Issuer or any portion thereof to be taxable as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for United States federal income or State income or
      franchise tax purposes.  The Certificateholders, the Administrator and the Servicer shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take any action that would violate the provisions of this Section or any other provision of any Basic Document.  Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relationships with the Owner Trustee and its Affiliates.

     

    Section 6.07.  Notice to Administrator of Repurchase Requests.  Not later than the fifth day of each calendar month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business
      Day), beginning January 5, 2023, the Owner Trustee shall provide to the Administrator a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit C with respect to any requests received by the Owner Trustee during the immediately preceding calendar month (or, in
      the case of the initial notice, since the Closing Date) that any Receivable be repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

    ARTICLE SEVEN

    THE OWNER TRUSTEE

     

    Section 7.01.  Acceptance of Duties.  The Owner Trustee accepts the trusts hereby continued and agrees to perform its duties with respect to such trusts, but only upon the terms of this
      Agreement.  The Owner Trustee also agrees to disburse all monies actually received by it constituting part of the Trust Property upon the terms set forth in the Basic Documents.  The Owner Trustee shall not be answerable or accountable hereunder or
      under any other Basic Document under any circumstances, except (i) for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) in the case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 7.03 expressly made by the
      Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity.  In particular, but not by way of limitation (and subject to the exceptions set forth in the preceding sentence):

     

    (a)          the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by any officer or employee of the Owner Trustee;

     

    (b)          the Owner Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement at
      the instructions of the Administrator or the Certificateholders;

     

    (c)          no provision of the Basic Documents shall require the Owner Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any
      of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such
      risk or liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it;

     

    (d)          under no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee be liable for any representation, warranty, covenant, obligation of any other Person or indebtedness evidenced by or
      arising under any Basic Document, including the principal of and interest on the Notes or any amounts payable on the Certificates;

     

    (e)          the Owner Trustee shall not be responsible for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or for the due execution hereof by the Depositor or for the
      form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the Trust Property, or for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of the Basic Documents, other than the signature and the certificate of authentication of the Owner Trustee
      on the Certificates, and the Owner Trustee shall in no event assume or incur any liability, duty or obligation to any Securityholder, other than as expressly provided for herein;

     

    (f)          the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of the Administrator, the Depositor, any Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or the
      Seller under any Basic Document or otherwise, and the Owner Trustee shall have no obligation or liability to perform the obligations of the Issuer under the Basic Documents that are required to be performed by the Administrator under the
      Administration Agreement, the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture or the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor under the Sale and Servicing Agreement;

     

    

    
      19

      
        

    

    (g)          the Owner Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, make any investigation of matters arising under
      this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Agreement or otherwise or in relation to any Basic Document at the request, order or direction of any Certificateholders, unless such Certificateholders have offered to the
      Owner Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by the Owner Trustee therein or thereby; and the right of the Owner Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in any
      Basic Document shall not be construed as a duty, and the Owner Trustee shall not be answerable other than for its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act; provided, that if the Owner Trustee declines to
      take any actions in connection with a dispute resolution related to a repurchase request due to the failure of the requesting Certificateholder to provide reasonable security or indemnity or for any other reason, then such Certificateholder may
      exercise its rights related to dispute resolution directly as the “Requesting Party” pursuant to Section 3.17 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement;

     

    (h)          in no event will the Owner Trustee have any responsibility to monitor compliance with or enforce compliance with the credit risk retention requirements for asset-backed
      securities or other rules or regulations relating to credit risk retention; the Owner Trustee will not be charged with knowledge of such rules, nor will it be liable to any Noteholder, Certificateholder, the Depositor, the Servicer or any other
      Person for violation of such rules now or hereinafter in effect;

     

    (i)          the Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any information provided to Certificateholders or any other individual or entity that has been obtained
      from, or provided to the Owner Trustee by, any other Person;

     

    (j)          in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on its part, the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely upon certificates or Opinions of Counsel furnished to the Owner
      Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement in determining the truthfulness of the statements and the correctness of the opinions contained therein; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee shall have examined such certificates or
      Opinions of Counsel so as to determine compliance of the same with the requirements of this Agreement;

     

    (k)          to the fullest extent permitted by law and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable for (i) special,
      consequential or punitive damages, however styled, including lost profits or (ii) the acts or omissions of any nominee, correspondent, clearing agency or securities depository through which it holds the Issuer’s securities or assets;  

    

     

    

    
      20

      
        

    

    (l)          notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Owner Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for its failure to perform under this Agreement or for
      any losses to the Issuer resulting from any event beyond the reasonable control of the Owner Trustee, its agents or subcustodians, including nationalization, strikes, expropriation, devaluation, seizure or similar action by any Governmental
      Authority, de facto or de jure; enactment, promulgation, imposition or enforcement by any such Governmental Authority of currency restrictions, exchange controls, levies or other charges affecting the Issuer’s property; the breakdown, failure or
      malfunction of any utilities or telecommunications systems; any order or regulation of any banking or securities industry including changes in market rules and market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions; acts of war,
      terrorism, insurrection or revolution; acts of God; epidemic or pandemic, quarantine, shelter-in-place or similar directive, guidance, policy or other action by any Governmental Authority; or any other similar event;

     

    (m)          the Owner Trustee shall not be required to provide, on its own behalf, any surety bond or other kind of security in connection with the execution of any of its trusts or
      powers under this Agreement or any other Basic Document or the performance of its duties hereunder;

     

    (n)          each of the parties hereto hereby agrees and, as evidenced by its acceptance of any benefits hereunder, each Certificateholder agrees that the Owner Trustee in any
      capacity (i) has not provided and will not provide in the future, any advice, counsel or opinion regarding the tax, regulatory, financial, investment, securities law or insurance implications and consequences of the formation, funding and ongoing
      administration of the Issuer, including income, gift and estate tax issues, insurable interest issues, risk retention issues, doing business or other licensing matters and the initial and ongoing selection and monitoring of financing arrangements,
      (ii) has not made any investigation as to the accuracy of any representations, warranties or other obligations of the Issuer under the Basic Documents and shall have no liability in connection therewith and (iii) the Owner Trustee has not prepared or
      verified, and shall not be responsible or liable for, any information, disclosure or other statement in any disclosure or offering document or in any other document issued or delivered in connection with the sale or transfer of the Notes;

     

    (o)          notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of
      Delaware if the taking of such action will (i) require the registration with, licensing by or the taking of any other similar action in respect of, any Governmental Authority other than the State of Delaware by or with respect to the Owner Trustee;
      (ii) result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the Owner Trustee; or (iii) subject
      the Owner Trustee to personal jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by the Owner Trustee contemplated hereby; the Owner Trustee shall
      be entitled to obtain advice of counsel (which advice shall be an expense of the Issuer) to determine whether any action required to be taken pursuant to the Agreement results in the consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the
      preceding sentence; and in the event that said counsel advises the Owner Trustee that such action will result in such consequences, the Owner Trustee may, or if instructed to do so by the Depositor, shall appoint an additional trustee pursuant to
      Section 10.05 to proceed with such action;

     

    
      21

      
        

    

    (p)          it shall be the  duty and responsibility of the Administrator, and not of the Owner Trustee, to cause the Issuer to respond to, defend, participate in or otherwise act in
      connection with any Proceeding or inquiry relating in any way to the Issuer, its assets or the conduct of its business; provided, that the Owner Trustee hereby agrees to cooperate with the Administrator and to comply with any reasonable request made
      by the Administrator for the delivery of information or documents to the Administrator in the Owner Trustee’s actual possession relating to any such Proceeding or inquiry;

     

    (q)          the Owner Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to supervise or  monitor the performance of any other Person and shall have no liability for the failure of any
      other Person to perform its obligations or duties under the Basic Documents or otherwise; and

     

    the Owner Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any fact or event unless a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of such fact or event is
      received by a Responsible Officer and such notice references the fact or event.

     

    

    Section 7.02.  Furnishing of Documents.  The Owner Trustee shall furnish to the Certificateholders, promptly upon receipt of a written request therefor, and at the expense of the related
      Certificateholders, (i) copies of the Basic Documents and (ii) copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and any other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee under the Basic Documents.

     

    Section 7.03.  Representations and Warranties.  The Owner Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor and the Certificateholders, that:

     

    (a)          It is a national banking association duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States that meets the eligibility criteria set forth in Section
      10.01; and it has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

     

    (b)          It has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be executed and delivered by one of
      its officers who is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement on its behalf.

     

    (c)          Neither the execution nor the delivery by it of this Agreement, nor the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by it with any of the
      terms or provisions hereof will contravene any federal or Delaware law, governmental rule or regulation governing the banking or trust powers of the Owner Trustee or any judgment or order binding on it, or constitute any default under its charter
      documents or bylaws or any indenture, mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound.

     

    (d)          This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Owner Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be
      limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability shall be considered in a proceeding in
      equity or at law.

     

    
      22

      
        

    

    (e)          To the actual knowledge of its Responsible Officers, the Owner Trustee is not in material default under any indenture, mortgage, bank credit agreement, note or bond
      purchase agreement, long term lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, which default would have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations as Owner Trustee under this
      Agreement.

     

    (f)          To the actual knowledge of its Responsible Officers, there are no pending or threatened actions, suits or proceedings affecting the Owner Trustee before any court or
      other governmental authority or agency under the laws of the State of Delaware or the federal laws of the United States governing the trust powers of the Owner Trustee (i) seeking the invalidity of this Agreement, or (ii) which, if adversely
      determined, would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Owner Trustee to perform its obligations as Owner Trustee under this Agreement.

     

    (g)          Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Owner Trustee of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, requires the consent
      or approval of, the withholding of objection on the part of, the giving of notice to, the filing, registration or qualification with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority or agency under the laws of the State of
      Delaware or the federal laws of the United States governing the trust powers of the Owner Trustee.

     

    Section 7.04.  Reliance; Advice of Counsel.

     

    (a)          The Owner Trustee shall incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other
      document or paper believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties.  The Owner Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document, including verifying the correctness of any numbers
      or calculations.  The Owner Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same
      is in full force and effect.  As to any fact or matter the method of determination of which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by any Authorized Officer of the relevant
      party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

     

    (b)          In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder and in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement and to the extent expressly provided for under the other
      Issuer Basic Documents, the Owner Trustee may, at the expense of the Issuer to the extent permitted under Sections 8.01 and 8.02, (i) act directly or through its agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the Owner
      Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the Owner Trustee with reasonable care and (ii) consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled Persons
      to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it.  The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the written opinion or advice of any such counsel, accountants or other such
      Persons and not contrary to any Basic Document.

     

    
      23

      
        

    

    Section 7.05.  Not Acting in Individual Capacity.  Except as otherwise provided in this Article, in accepting the trusts hereby created, Wilmington Trust, National Association acts solely as
      Owner Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and all Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents shall look only to the Trust Property for payment or satisfaction
      thereof.

     

    Section 7.06.  Owner Trustee Not Liable for Basic Documents or Certificates.  The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature and the certificate of
      authentication of the Owner Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor, and the Owner Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof.  The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or
      sufficiency of any Basic Document or the Certificates (in each case other than the signature and the certificate of authentication of the Owner Trustee on the Certificates and the representations and warranties in Section 7.03) or the Notes.  The
      Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any Receivable, or the perfection and priority of any security interest created by any Receivable in any Financed
      Vehicle or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust Property or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the Certificateholders under this Agreement or to the
      Noteholders under the Indenture, including the existence, condition and ownership of any Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any insurance thereon; the existence and contents of any Receivable on any computer or other record
      thereof; the validity of the assignment of any Receivable to the Issuer or of any intervening assignment; the completeness of any Receivable; the performance or enforcement of any Receivable; the compliance by the Depositor, the Seller or the
      Servicer with any warranty or representation made under any Basic Document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation; or for any action of the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

     

    Section 7.07.  Owner Trustee May Own Securities.  The Owner Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become a Securityholder or pledgee of Certificates or Notes and may deal with the
      Depositor, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller and the Servicer in banking transactions with the same rights as it would have if it were not Owner Trustee.

     

    Section 7.08.  The Paying Agent and the Certificate Registrar.  The rights and protections afforded to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Article Six and Sections 8.02, 10.02, 10.03 and 10.04 shall
      be afforded to the Paying Agent, the authenticating agent and the Certificate Registrar.

     

    Section 7.09.  Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law.  Pursuant to Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, the Owner Trustee is required to obtain on or before closing, and from time to time
      thereafter, documentation to verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.  For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Owner Trustee will ask for
      documentation to verify the entity’s formation and existence, its financial statements, licenses, tax identification documents, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity and other relevant
      documentation and information (including beneficial owners of such entities).  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected and indemnified in
      relying on, any such information received.  Failure to provide such information may result in an inability of the Owner Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder, which, at the sole option of the Owner Trustee, may result in the Owner Trustee’s
      resignation in accordance with Section 10.02.  The parties hereto agree that for purposes of Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, (a) the Depositor is and shall be deemed to be the sole beneficial owner of the Issuer (Ownership Prong)   and (b) the
      Depositor is and shall deemed to be the party with the power and authority to control the Issuer (Control Prong).

    ARTICLE EIGHT

    COMPENSATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OWNER TRUSTEE

     

    Section 8.01.  Owner Trustee’s Fees and Expenses.  The Owner Trustee shall receive as compensation for its services hereunder such fees as have been separately agreed upon before the Closing
      Date between the Servicer or Administrator and the Owner Trustee, and upon the formation of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed, except as otherwise provided in the Basic Documents, by the Servicer or Administrator for
      its other reasonable expenses hereunder, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, experts and counsel as the Owner Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its
      rights and its duties hereunder.

     

    When the Owner Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default set forth under Section 5.01(v) or (vi) of the Indenture with respect to the Issuer, such expenses are intended to
      constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Insolvency Law.

     

    Section 8.02.  Indemnification.  The Depositor shall be liable as primary obligor for, and shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from and against, any and all Expenses, which may at any time
      be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Owner Trustee or any other Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of the Basic Documents, the Trust Property, the administration of the Trust Property or the action or inaction of
      the Owner Trustee hereunder, including any Expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with the enforcement of the Depositor’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Depositor shall not be liable
      for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or resulting from any of the matters described in the third sentence of Section 7.01.  To the extent not paid, or caused to be paid, by the Depositor or the
      Administrator, any indemnity due and owing the Owner Trustee shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Indenture.  The indemnities contained in this Section shall survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the
      termination of this Agreement.  In the event of any claim, action or Proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the Owner Trustee’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the Depositor, which approval
      shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     

    Section 8.03.  Payments to the Owner Trustee.  Any amounts paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Article from assets that are part of the Trust Property shall be deemed not to be a part of
      the Trust Property immediately after such payment.

    ARTICLE NINE

    TERMINATION OF TRUST AGREEMENT

     

    Section 9.01.  Termination of Trust Agreement.

     

    (a)          This Agreement (other than the provisions of Article Eight) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Issuer shall dissolve and wind-up upon the earlier of (i) the
      payment to the Servicer, the Trustees and the Securityholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Article Five of this Agreement, (ii) the Payment Date next succeeding the month
      which is one year after the maturity or other liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of any property remaining in the Issuer or (iii) upon the purchase of the Receivables by the Servicer in
      connection with an Optional Purchase and retirement of the Securities.  The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not (i) operate to dissolve or terminate this Agreement or the Issuer, (ii) entitle
      such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any Proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Issuer or the Trust Property or (iii) otherwise affect the rights,
      obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.

     

    (b)          Except as provided in Section 9.01(a), neither the Depositor nor any Certificateholder shall be entitled to revoke, dissolve or terminate the Issuer.

     

    (c)          Notice of any termination of the Issuer, specifying the Payment Date upon which Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Owner Trustee for payment of the final
      distribution and cancellation, shall be given by the Owner Trustee to Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days of receipt of notice of such termination from the Servicer, stating (i) the Payment Date upon or with respect to which final
      payment of the Certificates shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Owner Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
      Payment Date is not applicable and that payments are being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Owner Trustee therein specified.  The Owner Trustee shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if
      other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders.  Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders, subject to Section
      3808 of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.01.

     

    (d)          In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the
      Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice all the
      Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates and
      the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement.  Subject to applicable escheat laws, any funds remaining in the Issuer after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the Owner
      Trustee to the Seller, as Certificateholder.

     

    (e)          Following the dissolution and the winding up of the Issuer, in accordance with Section 3808 of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, the Depositor shall instruct the Owner Trustee in writing,
      and the Owner Trustee, at the expense of the Depositor, shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810(d) of the Delaware
      Statutory Trust Act and the Issuer and this Agreement (other than Article Eight) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

    ARTICLE TEN

    SUCCESSOR AND ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES

     

    Section 10.01.  Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee.  The Owner Trustee shall at all times be (i) a corporation with trust powers organized under the laws of the United States or any
      State and satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, (ii) authorized to exercise corporate trust powers that has (or has a parent that has) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and is subject
      to supervision or examination by federal or State authorities and (iii) having (or having a parent that has) time deposits that are rated investment grade by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s or, if it (or its parent) does not have such ratings,
      otherwise be acceptable to each Rating Agency.  If such corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually pursuant to Applicable Law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of
      this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.  If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible
      in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.

     

    Section 10.02.  Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee.  The Owner Trustee may at any time resign upon 90 days’ prior written notice and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving
      written notice thereof to the Administrator and the Depositor, and will provide to the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply
      with its reporting obligation under the Exchange Act with respect to the resignation of the Owner Trustee.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee acceptable to the Depositor by
      written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee.  If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment
      within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.  Neither the Administrator nor the Depositor shall owe the
      outgoing Owner Trustee any expenses associated with the resignation of the outgoing Owner Trustee and the outgoing Owner Trustee shall not be responsible for any expenses associated with the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

     

    If at any time the Owner Trustee shall (i) cease to be eligible in accordance with Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the Owner
      Trustee shall be legally unable to act, (ii) be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or
      affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (iii) fail to comply with any of its obligations under Section 10.02, 10.04 or 11.03, during the period that the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect
      to the Issuer and such failure is not remedied within the lesser of ten calendar days and the period of time in which the related Exchange Act Report is required to be filed (without taking into account any extensions) or (iv) otherwise become
      incapable of acting, then the Administrator or the Depositor may remove the Owner Trustee.  If the Administrator or Depositor shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly
      appoint a successor Owner Trustee acceptable to the Depositor by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee, and shall pay all
      fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

     

    
      27

      
        

    

    Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment
      by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

     

    Section 10.03.  Successor Owner Trustee.  Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its predecessor Owner
      Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement and deliver to the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply
      with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act with respect to the successor Owner Trustee, and thereupon, subject to the payment of all fees and expenses owed to the predecessor Owner Trustee, the resignation or removal of the predecessor
      Owner Trustee shall become effective, and such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like
      effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee.  The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement and the
      Administrator and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers,
      duties and obligations.

     

    No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01.  Any
      successor Owner Trustee shall promptly file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust as required by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

     

    Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Administrator shall mail notice thereof to the Depositor, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee and the
      Rating Agencies.  If the Administrator shall fail to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of such appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
      Administrator.

     

    Section 10.04.  Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee.

     

     (a)           If the Owner Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another entity, the resulting, surviving
      or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act, except the filing of an amendment to the Certificate of Trust, if required under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, shall be the successor Owner Trustee; provided, however, that
      such corporation or banking association must be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 10.01.  The Owner Trustee shall (i) provide the Rating Agencies with written notice as soon as practicable after a public announcement is made regarding
      any such transaction, (ii) file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust as required by Section 10.03 (if required under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act) and (iii) provide the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
      the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under the Exchange Act with respect to the successor Owner Trustee.

    (b)          If any of the Certificates shall have been authenticated but not delivered at the time such successor or successors by consolidation, merger or conversion to the Owner Trustee shall succeed
      to the trusts created by this Agreement, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Certificates so authenticated.  If any of the Certificates shall not have been
      authenticated upon such succession, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may authenticate such Certificates either in the name of any predecessor trustee or in the name of the successor to the Owner Trustee.  In all such cases, such Certificates
      shall have the full force which the Certificates or this Agreement provide that the certificate of the Owner Trustee shall have.

     

    Section 10.05.  Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any
      jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more
      Persons approved by the Administrator and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Property, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity and for
      the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Property or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may
      consider necessary or desirable.  If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment.  No co-trustee or
      separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01, except that such co-trustee or successor trustee shall be acceptable to each Rating Agency, and no notice
      of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03.

     

    Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

    

      (a)          all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Owner
        Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any Applicable
        Law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of
        title to the Trust Property or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;

         

    

    
      29

      
        

    

    (b)          no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

     

    (c)          the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

     

    Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then-separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. 
      Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article.  Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or
      property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating
      to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee.  Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

     

    Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, to do any
      lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.  If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest
      in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, without the appointment of a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.

    MISCELLANEOUS

     

    Section 12.01.  Supplements and Amendments.

     

    (a)          This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties hereto, without the consent of any Securityholder, (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake, to correct or supplement any
      provision herein that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in the Prospectus, (ii) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement and (iii) to add (as
      described in Section 3.04(e)) provisions necessary to prevent any application of the Treasury Regulations under Section 385 of the Code (including any subsequent or successor provision) that would result in the recharacterization of any of the Notes
      as equity; provided, however, that no such amendment (A) may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholders and (B) will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment will
      not cause (1) the Issuer to be classified as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes or (2) the Notes to be characterized other than as indebtedness for United States
      federal income tax purposes.

     

    (b)          This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the Owner Trustee with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies and with the consent of the Holders of Notes
      evidencing not less than 662⁄3% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests, for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or
      changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the
      Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not cause (1) the Issuer to be classified as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes or (2) the Notes to be
      characterized other than as indebtedness for United States federal income tax purposes; and, provided further, that no such amendment may:

     

    (i)          increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of
      the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Securityholders without the consent of all Securityholders adversely affected by such amendment; or

     

    (ii)          reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or the percentage of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests the consent of the Noteholders or Certificateholders, as
      applicable, of which is required for any amendment to this Agreement without the consent of all the Securityholders adversely affected by the amendment.

     

    

    (c)          An amendment to this Agreement shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholders if (i) the Person requesting such amendment obtains and delivers to the
      Owner Trustee an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer  to that effect and (ii) with respect to the Notes, the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such amendment.

      amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document)
      and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.  Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the
      Owner Trustee shall file such amendment or cause such amendment to be filed with the Secretary of State.

     

    (e)          Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Certificateholder
      and the Depositor shall furnish written notice of the substance of such amendment or consent to the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies.

     

    (f)          In connection with the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any amendment to any other agreement to which the Issuer is a party, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive
      and shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement (or such other agreement) and an Officer’s Certificate from the Depositor or the
      Administrator stating that all conditions precedent in this Agreement (or such other agreement) to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied.  The Owner Trustee may, but shall not be required to, execute any amendment which, as
      evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affects the Owner Trustee’s rights, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.

    MERCEDES-BENZ AUTO RECEIVABLES TRUST 2022-1

     ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE

     

    evidencing an undivided beneficial interest in the property of Mercedes-Benz Auto Receivables Trust 2022-1, a Delaware statutory trust
      (the “Issuer”), which property includes a pool of motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans secured by new and pre-owned motor vehicles sold by Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
      (“MBFS USA”), to Mercedes-Benz Retail Receivables LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Mercedes-Benz Receivables” or the “Depositor”), and sold by the Depositor to the Issuer.  The property of the Issuer has been pledged by the Issuer to U.S.
      Bank Trust Company, National Association, a national banking association, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 1, 2022 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
      “Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, to secure the payment of the Notes issued thereunder.

     

    
      A-1

      
        

    

    This certifies that MERCEDES-BENZ RETAIL RECEIVABLES LLC is the registered owner of a 100% Certificate Percentage Interest nonassessable, fully paid, undivided beneficial interest in the Issuer.  The
      Issuer is governed by an amended and restated trust agreement, dated as of November 1, 2022 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), between the Depositor and Wilmington Trust, National
      Association, as trustee (in such capacity, and not in its individual capacity, the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below.  Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall
      have the meanings ascribed in Appendix A to the sale and servicing agreement, dated as of November 1, 2022 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), among the Issuer, the
      Depositor and MBFS USA, as seller (in such capacity, the “Seller”) and as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”).

     

    This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the registered holder of this Certificate (the
      “Certificateholder”) by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Certificateholder is bound.  The property of the Issuer primarily includes: (i) a pool of motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans originated in
      connection with the sale of new or pre-owned motor vehicles (the “Receivables”), (ii) all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables after the Cutoff Date, (iii) the security interests in the Financed Vehicles granted by the Obligors
      pursuant to the Receivables and (iv) all proceeds of the foregoing.

     

    THE RIGHTS OF THE ISSUER IN THE FOREGOING PROPERTY OF THE ISSUER HAVE BEEN PLEDGED TO THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO SECURE THE PAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

     

    Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, there will be distributed on each Payment Date to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the Business Day preceding such
      Payment Date such Certificateholder’s Certificate Percentage Interest in the amount to be distributed to Certificateholders on such Payment Date.  “Payment Date” means the 15th day of each month or, if such 15th day is not a Business Day, the
      following Business Day, commencing on December 15, 2022.

     

    THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ITS RIGHTS TO RECEIVE DISTRIBUTIONS IN RESPECT OF THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBORDINATED TO THE RIGHTS OF THE NOTEHOLDERS AS DESCRIBED IN THE TRUST
      AGREEMENT, THE SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT AND THE INDENTURE.

     

    It is the intent of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Certificateholders that, for purposes of United States federal income taxes, State and local income taxes and any other taxes the
      Issuer will be treated as a fixed investment trust or grantor trust or, if not so treated and there is only one beneficial owner of the equity of the Issuer, as an entity that is disregarded as separate from such owner.  However, if the Issuer is not
      treated as a fixed investment trust or as a grantor trust for such purposes, and if there are two or more beneficial owners of the equity of the Issuer, the Issuer shall be treated as a partnership (other than an association or publicly traded
      partnership) for purposes of United States federal income, State and local income and franchise tax and any other income taxes.  The Depositor and each Certificateholder, by acceptance of a Certificate or a beneficial interest therein, agree with the
      foregoing characterization of the Certificates for such tax purposes and further agree to take no action inconsistent therewith.

     

    
      A-2

      
        

    

    Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate or a beneficial interest therein, covenants and agrees that it will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or join in
      any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation Proceedings or other Proceedings under any Insolvency Law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
      Certificates or any Basic Document and agrees that it will not cooperate with or encourage others to file a bankruptcy petition against the Depositor or the Issuer during the same period.

     

    Distributions on this Certificate will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by the Paying Agent by wire transfer or check mailed to the Certificateholder of record in the Certificate Register
      without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any notation hereon.  Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due
      notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency of the Owner Trustee maintained for that purpose in Wilmington, Delaware.

     

    Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if fully set forth on the
      face of this Certificate.

     

    Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by an Authorized Officer of the Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any benefit
      under the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

     

    THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
      OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

     

    
      A-3

      
        

    

    

    

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer and not in its individual capacity, has caused this Certificate to be duly executed as of the date set forth below.

    [REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE]

     

    This Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates, and no
      recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated herein, in the Trust Agreement or in the other Basic Documents.  In addition, this Certificate is not guaranteed by any Governmental
      Authority and is limited in right of payment to certain collections with respect to the Receivables (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     

    The Trust Agreement permits the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, with certain exceptions therein provided, to amend from time to time certain terms and conditions set forth in
      the Trust Agreement without the consent of the Certificateholders.  The Trust Agreement also permits the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, with certain exceptions as therein provided, to amend certain terms and conditions set
      forth in the Trust Agreement with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 662⁄3% of the Note Balance and the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests.  Any such consent
      by the Certificateholder shall be conclusive and binding on such Certificateholder and on all future Certificateholders and of any Certificate issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not
      notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.

     

    As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Transfer of this Certificate may be registered in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate
      for registration of Transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee and a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder or such Certificateholder’s attorney
      duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in any authorized denomination and in the same aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests in the Issuer will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.  No service
      charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
      therewith.  The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is the Indenture Trustee.

     

    Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Certificateholder is not (i) a Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or
      arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law or (ii) a Person acting on behalf of a Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law or a Person using the assets of a Benefit Plan or other
      employee benefit plan or arrangement that is any plan subject to Similar Law to effect the transfer of such Certificate.

      

    

    The Certificates are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in the Trust Agreement, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

       

    
      A-5

      
        

    

    
    The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register (as of the day of determination) as the
      owner of this Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Trust Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to
      the contrary.

     

    The Trust Agreement, with certain exceptions therein provided, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Issuer shall dissolve upon the earlier of (i) the payment to the Servicer, the
      Trustees and the Securityholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement, (ii) the Payment Date next succeeding the month which is one year after the
      maturity or other liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of any property remaining in the Issuer or (iii) upon the purchase of the Receivables by the Servicer in connection with an Optional
      Purchase and retirement of the Securities.

        pursuant to Section 2.05 of this Agreement or Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the purchase of Receivables by the Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.03, 3.08 or 8.01 of this Agreement) after the Cutoff Date;

     

    
      1

      
        

    

    (ii)          the security interests in the Financed Vehicles granted by the Obligors pursuant to the Receivables and any other interest of the Depositor in such
        Financed Vehicles;

     

    (iii)         all proceeds from claims on any physical damage or theft insurance policies and extended warranties covering such Financed Vehicles and any proceeds of
        any credit life or credit disability insurance policies relating to the Receivables, the related Financed Vehicles or the related Obligors;

     

    (iv)          the Receivable Files that relate to the Receivables;

     

    (v)          any proceeds of Dealer Recourse that relate to the Receivables;

     

    (vi)          the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Reserve Fund and all amounts, securities, Financial Assets, investments and other property
        deposited in or credited to any of the foregoing and all proceeds thereof;

     

    (vii)        all rights of the Depositor, but none of the obligations, under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the First-Tier Assignment, including the right to
        require the Seller to repurchase Receivables from the Issuer;

     

    (viii)       the right to realize upon any property (including the right to receive future Net Liquidation Proceeds and Recoveries) that shall have secured a
        Receivable and have been repossessed by or on behalf of the Issuer; and

     

    (ix)          all present and future claims, demands, causes of action and choses in action in respect of any or all of the foregoing, and all payments on or under
        and all proceeds of every kind and nature whatsoever in respect of any or all of the foregoing, including all proceeds of the conversion thereof, voluntary or involuntary, into cash or other liquid property, all accounts, accounts receivable,
        general intangibles, chattel paper, documents, money, investment property, deposit accounts, letters of credit, letter of credit rights, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, notes, drafts, acceptances, rights to payment of any and every kind
        and other forms of obligations and receivables, instruments and other property which at any time constitutes all or part of, or is included in, the proceeds of any of the foregoing.

     

    (b)          The Depositor and the Issuer intend that the transfer of Trust Property contemplated by Section 2.01(a) constitute a sale of the Trust Property from the Depositor to the
        Issuer, conveying good title to the Trust Property free and clear of any Liens and, in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any Insolvency Law, that the Trust Property shall not be part of the
        Depositor’s estate.  In the event, however, that any such transfer is deemed to be a pledge, the Depositor hereby grants to the Issuer a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under such
        Trust Property, and all proceeds thereof, to secure the payment of the Notes and accrued interest thereon and all other amounts owing under the Basic Documents and in such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under Applicable
        Law.

     

    
      2

      
        

    

    (c)          The sales, transfers, assignments and conveyances of Trust Property made under this Section shall not constitute, and is not intended to result in, an assumption by the
        Issuer of any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller to the Obligors or any other Person in connection with the Receivables and the other Trust Property or any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller under any agreement, document or instrument
        related thereto.

     

    Section 2.02.  Representations and Warranties of the Seller as to the Receivables.  The Seller has made, in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, each of the
      representations and warranties as to the Receivables set forth in Exhibit A.  The Issuer shall be deemed to have relied on such representations and warranties in accepting the Receivables.  Such representations and warranties speak as of the date of
      execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent otherwise provided, but shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge
      of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.  Pursuant to Section 2.01(a), the Depositor has sold, transferred, assigned and otherwise conveyed to the Issuer, as part of the Trust Property, its rights under the Receivables
      Purchase Agreement, including its right to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement upon a breach of such representations and warranties.

     

    The Seller hereby agrees that the Issuer shall have the right to enforce any and all rights of the Depositor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement assigned to the Issuer under this Agreement,
      including the right to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement upon a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit A, directly against the Seller as though the Issuer
      were a party to the Receivables Purchase Agreement and that the Issuer shall not be obligated to enforce any such right indirectly through the Depositor.

     

    Section 2.03.  Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the Receivables.  The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties as to the
      Receivables on which the Issuer shall be deemed to have relied in accepting the Receivables.  The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent
      otherwise provided, but shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

     

    (a)          Title.  The Depositor has purchased the Receivables from the Seller.  The Depositor intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.01 constitute a sale of
      the Receivables from the Depositor to the Issuer and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables 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
      Insolvency Law.

     

    
      3

      
        

    

    

    

    (b)          Security Interest Matters.  The Depositor has caused or will cause prior to the Closing Date the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing offices in the
      appropriate jurisdictions under Applicable Law necessary to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted to the Issuer under this Agreement.  The security interest of the Seller in each Financed Vehicle has been validly assigned by the
      Depositor to the Issuer.

     

    (c)          Financing Statements.  All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Depositor in favor of the Indenture Trustee (as assignee of the Issuer) contain a statement
      substantially to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee”.

     

    (d)          No Transfer Restrictions.  The Depositor has not created, incurred or suffered to exist any restriction on transferability of the Receivables except for the restrictions on
      transferability imposed by this Agreement.  The transfer of the Receivables and the Receivable Files by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement is not subject to the bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in
      any applicable jurisdiction.

     

    Section 2.04.  Representations and Warranties as to Security Interests.  The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which
      the Issuer shall be deemed to have relied in accepting the Receivables.  The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent otherwise provided, but
      shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

     

    (a)          This Agreement creates a valid and continuing “security interest” (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Issuer, which security interest is prior to all
      other Liens, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.

     

    (b)          The Depositor has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against the Obligor in the Financed Vehicles.

     

    (c)          The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” or “electronic chattel paper” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

     

    (d)          The Depositor owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

     

    (e)          All original executed copies of each loan agreement and installment sales contract that constitute or evidence of those Receivables that are “tangible chattel paper” have been delivered to
      the Servicer, as custodian for the Issuer.

     

    (f)           The Depositor has not communicated an authoritative copy of any Receivable that constitutes “electronic chattel paper” to any Person other than the Servicer, as custodian for the Issuer.

     

    
      4

      
        

    

    (g)          The Depositor has received a written acknowledgment from the Servicer that the Servicer is holding the loan agreements and installment sales contracts that constitute or evidence the
      Receivables solely on behalf and for the benefit of the Issuer.

     

    (h)          Other than the security interest granted to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or
      otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables.  The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing
      statement relating to the security interest granted to the Issuer hereunder or that has been terminated.  The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Depositor.

     

    (i)          None of the loan agreements or installment sales contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned, or
      otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Issuer.

     

    Section 2.05.  Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach.

     

    (a)          Investigation of Breach.  If an Authorized Officer of the Seller (i) has knowledge of a breach of a representation or warranty made in Exhibit A of this Agreement,
        (ii) receives notice from the Issuer or either Trustee of a breach of any such representation or warranty, (iii) receives a Repurchase Request from a Note Owner, a Noteholder or either Trustee for a Receivable or (iv) receives a Review Report that
        indicates a Test Fail for a Receivable, the Seller will investigate the related Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach has a material adverse effect on the interests of the Issuer or Noteholders in such Receivable.  None of
        the Servicer, the Issuer, either Trustee, the Administrator or the Asset Representations Reviewer will have an obligation to investigate whether a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred or whether any Receivable is required to be
        repurchased under this Section.

     

    (b)          Repurchase of Receivables; Payment of Purchase Price.  If a breach of a representation or warranty made in Exhibit A of this Agreement has a material adverse effect
        on the interests of the Issuer or Noteholders in a Receivable, and if such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the 30th day after the date on which the Seller becomes
        aware of, or receives written notice from the Depositor, the Servicer, either Trustee, a Note Owner or a Noteholder of, such breach, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer as of the close of business on the last day of such
        Collection Period by paying the Purchase Amount to the Issuer on the Deposit Date related to such Collection Period.

     

    (c)          Sale and Assignment of Repurchased Receivable.  When the Purchase Amount is included in Available Collections for a Payment Date, the Issuer will, without further
        action, be deemed to have sold and assigned to the Seller, effective as of the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in the related Receivable repurchased by the Seller
        under this Section and all security and documents relating to such Receivable.  The sale will not require any action by the Issuer and will be without recourse, representation or warranty by the Issuer except the representation that the Issuer owns
        such Receivable free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens.  In connection with the sale, the Servicer may take any action necessary or advisable to evidence the sale of such Receivable, free from any Lien of the Issuer or the Indenture
        Trustee.

     

    
      5

      
        

    

    (d)          Repurchase Sole Remedy.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3.17, the sole remedy of the Issuer, the Trustees, the Note Owners and the Noteholders with respect to
        a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Exhibit A shall be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivable pursuant to this Section and Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.  Neither Trustee shall have any
        duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section or the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement.

     

    Section 2.06.  Custody of Receivable Files.

     

    (a)          To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Issuer hereby revocably appoints the Servicer as its agent, and the Servicer
        hereby accepts such appointment, to act as custodian, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, of the following documents or instruments which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Trust Property
        pursuant to the Indenture with respect to each Receivable (collectively, a “Receivable File”):

     

    (i)          the fully executed original of the Receivable or an authoritative copy of the Receivable, if in electronic form;

     

    (ii)          the original certificate of title for the related Financed Vehicle (or evidence that such certificate of title has been applied for) or such other
        documents that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, evidencing the security interest of the Seller in such Financed Vehicle;

     

    (iii)         documents evidencing the commitment of the related Obligor to maintain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle; and

     

    (iv)          any and all other documents (including any computer file or disc or microfiche) that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with
        its customary practices and procedures, relating to the Receivable, the related Obligor or the related Financed Vehicle.

     

    (b)          On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee confirming that the Servicer has received, on behalf of the
        Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, all the documents and instruments necessary for the Servicer to act as the agent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the purposes set forth in this Section, including the documents referred to herein, and
        the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to rely on such Officer’s Certificate.

    Section 2.07.  Duties of Servicer as Custodian.

     

    (a)          Safekeeping.  The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, shall hold the Receivable Files for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and maintain such
        accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Servicer and the Issuer to comply with this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee to comply with the Indenture.  In performing its
        duties as custodian, the Servicer shall act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that it exercises with respect to the files of comparable motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans that the Servicer
        services for itself or others.  The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, periodic examinations of the files of all receivables owned or serviced by it, which shall include the
        Receivable Files held by it under this Agreement, and of the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner as shall enable the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to verify the accuracy of the Servicer’s record keeping as it relates
        to the Receivables.  The Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustees any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and to maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to
        remedy any such failure.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to require an initial review or any periodic review of the Receivable Files by the Issuer or the Trustees, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustees shall be liable or responsible for any
        action or failure to act by the Servicer in its capacity as custodian hereunder.

     

    (b)          Maintenance of and Access to Records.  The Servicer shall maintain the original documents for each Receivable File at one of the locations specified in Schedule A or
        at such other locations as shall be specified to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the Servicer from time to time.  Except as stated above, any document in a Receivable File may be held in an electronic format, provided that, in the case of
        any Receivable constituting “electronic chattel paper,” the “authoritative copy” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) of such Receivable shall be maintained by the Servicer in an electronic format such that the Servicer maintains
        “control” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) over such “authoritative copy”.  The Servicer may temporarily move individual Receivable Files or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to conduct collection and other servicing
        activities in accordance with its customary practices and procedures.  The Servicer shall make available to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee or its duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivables,
        the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Servicer at such times during normal business hours as the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably request.

     

    (c)          Release of Documents.  As soon as practicable after receiving written instructions from the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall release any document in the
        Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee or its agent or designee, as the case may be, at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate.  The Servicer shall not be responsible for any loss occasioned by the failure of the
        Indenture Trustee to return any document or any delay in so doing.

     

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

     

    
      7

      
        

    

    Section 2.08.  Instructions; Authority to Act.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of
      written instructions signed by a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee.  A certified copy of excerpts of authorizing resolutions of the board of directors of the Indenture Trustee shall constitute conclusive evidence of the authority of any
      such Responsible Officer to act and shall be considered in full force and effect until receipt by the Servicer of written notice to the contrary given by the Indenture Trustee.

     

    Section 2.09.  Indemnification by Custodian.  The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian of the Receivable Files, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the
      Trustees and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all Expenses that may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against the Issuer, the Trustees and each of their respective officers, directors,
      employees and agents as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody of the Receivable Files by the Servicer, as custodian, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with the
      enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any portion of any such Expenses resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of either
      Trustee.

     

    Section 2.10.  Effective Period and Termination.  The Servicer’s appointment as custodian shall become effective as of the Cutoff Date and shall continue in full force
      and effect until terminated pursuant to this Section.  If the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under Section 6.05, or if all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer shall have been terminated under Section 7.01, the appointment of the Servicer
      as custodian hereunder may be terminated by (i) the Issuer, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, (ii) Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the Notes or, if the Notes have been paid in full, by Certificateholders
      evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding or (iii) the Indenture Trustee, with the consent of Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the Notes, in each case by notice
      then given in writing to the Depositor and the Servicer (with a copy to the Trustees if given by the Noteholders or the Certificateholders).  As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall deliver, or cause to be
      delivered, the Receivable Files and the related accounts and records maintained by the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee’s agent or the Indenture Trustee’s designee, as the case may be, at such place as the Indenture Trustee
      may reasonably designate or, if the Notes have been paid in full, at such place as the Owner Trustee may reasonably designate.

    ARTICLE THREE

     

    ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF THE TRUST PROPERTY

     

    Section 3.01.  Duties of Servicer.  The Servicer, acting alone or through one or more subservicers to the extent permitted hereunder, for the benefit of the Issuer, shall
      manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care but in no event less than the care that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans
      that it services for itself or others.  The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors or by Governmental Authorities with respect to the Receivables, investigating delinquencies,
      sending payment coupons and statements to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors in accordance with its customary practices, policing the collateral, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Indenture
      Trustee with respect to distributions, providing collection and repossession services in the event of an Obligor default, generating United States federal income tax information and performing the other duties specified herein.  The Servicer shall
      have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable, it being understood, however, that the Servicer shall at all times remain
      responsible to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder.  Subject to the foregoing and to Section 3.02, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures in
      performing its duties hereunder as Servicer.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall be authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees, the Securityholders
      or any of them, 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 the Financed Vehicles.

     

    The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the Issuer, a Proceeding to enforce a Receivable pursuant to Section 3.04 or to commence or participate in a
      Proceeding (including a bankruptcy Proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, including a Defaulted Receivable.  If the Servicer commences or participates in such a Proceeding in its own name, the Issuer shall thereupon be deemed to have
      automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection on behalf of the party retaining an interest in such Receivable, such Receivable and the other property conveyed to the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to such Receivable to
      the Servicer for purposes of commencing or participating in any such Proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Issuer 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.  If in any enforcement suit or Proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the grounds that it shall not be a real party
      in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s expense and written direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in the Servicer’s or the Issuer’s name or the name
      of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any of them.

     

    The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents 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 hereunder.  The Servicer, at its expense, shall obtain on behalf of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by
      the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in connection with ownership of the Receivables and shall make all filings and pay all fees as may be required in connection therewith during the term of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall, or shall cause the
      Administrator to, prepare, execute and deliver all certificates or other documents required to be delivered by the Issuer pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

    Section 3.02.  Delegation of Duties; Subservicers.

     

    (a)          So long as MBFS USA, or the Indenture Trustee, as Successor Servicer, is the Servicer, the Servicer may without notice or consent delegate (i) any or all of its duties
        under this Agreement to any Affiliate of MBFS USA (or in the case of the Indenture Trustee as Successor Servicer, any Affiliate of the Indenture Trustee) or (ii) specific duties to sub-contractors who are in the business of performing such duties.

     

    (b)          The Servicer may enter into subservicing or sub-contracting agreements in accordance with Section 3.02(a) with one or more subservicers for the servicing and administration
        of any or all of the Receivables.  References in this Agreement or any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement to actions taken, or to be taken, permitted to be taken or restrictions on actions permitted to be taken, by the Servicer in servicing
        the Receivables shall include actions taken, or to be taken, permitted to be taken or restrictions on actions permitted to be taken, by a subservicer on behalf of the Servicer.  Each subservicing or sub-contracting agreement will be upon such terms
        and conditions as are not inconsistent with this Agreement and the standard of care set forth herein and as the Servicer and the related subservicer have agreed.  All compensation payable to a subservicer under a subservicing or sub-contracting
        agreement shall be payable by the Servicer from its servicing compensation or otherwise from its own funds.

     

    (c)          Notwithstanding any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or any arrangements between the Servicer or
        a subservicer or any reference to actions taken through such entities or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the servicing and administering of the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement without diminution of such
        obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing or sub-contracting agreements.

     

    (d)          Any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or servicing arrangements relating to or involving a subservicer shall be
        deemed to be between the subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the other parties hereto and the Administrator shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the subservicer.

     

    Section 3.03.  Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification of Receivables.  The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the
      terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and otherwise act with respect to the Receivables and the other Trust Property in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be
      received by the Issuer with respect thereto and in accordance with the standard of care required by Section 3.01.  The Servicer shall allocate collections on or in respect of the Receivables between principal and interest in accordance with the
      Simple Interest Method and the customary servicing practices and procedures it follows with respect to all comparable motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans that it services for itself or others.  The Servicer shall not
      increase or decrease the number or amount of any Monthly Payment, except in response to a prepayment by the related Obligor, the Amount Financed under any Receivable or, except as may be required by Applicable Law, the APR of any Receivable, or
      extend, rewrite or otherwise modify the payment terms of any Receivable; provided, however, that the Servicer may extend the due date for one or more payments due on any Receivable for credit-related reasons that would be acceptable to the Servicer
      with respect to comparable motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans that it services for itself or others and in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures if the cumulative extensions with
      respect to any Receivable shall not cause the term of such Receivable to extend beyond the last day of the Collection Period immediately preceding the Class A‐4 Final Scheduled Payment Date.  If the Servicer fails to comply with the provisions of the
      preceding sentence, the Servicer shall be required to purchase each Receivable affected thereby for the related Purchase Amount as of the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period that includes the 30th day after the
      Servicer becomes aware of such failure, by making such deposit in the manner specified in Section 3.08 on the Deposit Date immediately following such Collection Period.  The Servicer may, in its discretion (but only in accordance with its customary
      standards, policies, practices and procedures), waive any late payment charge or any other fee that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable.  In addition, in the event that any such extension of a Receivable modifies the
      terms of such Receivable in such a manner as to constitute a cancellation of such Receivable and the creation of a new motor vehicle receivable that results in a deemed exchange thereof within the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code, the Servicer
      shall purchase such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.08, and the Receivable created shall not be included in the Trust Property.

     

    
      10

      
        

    

    Section 3.04.  Realization Upon Receivables.

     

    (a)          The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts on behalf of the Issuer, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.01, to repossess or
        otherwise convert the ownership of each Financed Vehicle securing a Defaulted Receivable.  In taking such action, the Servicer shall follow such customary and usual practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing
        of comparable motor vehicle installment sales contracts and installment loans, and as are otherwise consistent with the standard of care required under Section 3.01.  The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it
        with respect to realizing on a Defaulted Receivable, including such expenses incurred in the course of repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds.  The foregoing is subject to the proviso that, in any case in which the
        Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair or repossession shall
        increase the Net Liquidation Proceeds or Recoveries of the related Receivable.

     

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

     

    
      11

      
        

    

    Section 3.05.  Maintenance of Physical Damage Insurance Policies.  The Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures to determine
      whether or not each Obligor shall have maintained physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle.  Each Receivable shall provide that the failure by the Obligor to obtain and maintain the required insurance is a default thereunder. 
      The Servicer shall not obtain force-placed insurance in respect of the Receivables.

     

    Section 3.06.  Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles.  The Servicer shall take such steps, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section
      3.01, as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle.  The Issuer hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby agrees, to take such steps as are necessary to
      re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event the Servicer receives notice of, or otherwise has actual knowledge of, the fact that such security interest is not perfected as a result of the
      relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason.  In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Issuer is insufficient, without a notation on the related Financed Vehicle’s certificate of title, to grant to the Issuer a first
      priority perfected security interest in the related Financed Vehicle, the Servicer hereby agrees to serve as the agent of the Issuer for the purpose of perfecting the security interest of the Issuer in such Financed Vehicle and agrees that the
      Servicer’s listing as the secured party on the certificate of title is solely in its capacity as agent of the Issuer.  The Servicer shall not release, in whole or in part, any security interest in a Financed Vehicle created by the related Receivable
      except as permitted herein or in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures.

     

    Section 3.07.  Covenants of Servicer.  The Servicer makes the following covenants:

     

    (a)          Liens in Force.  Except upon the payment in full of a Receivable or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or Applicable Law, the Servicer
        shall not release in whole or in part any Financed Vehicle from the security interest securing the related Receivable.

     

    (b)          No Impairment.  The Servicer shall not impair in any material respect the rights of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees or the Securityholders
        in the Receivables or, except as permitted under Section 3.03, otherwise amend or alter the terms of the Receivables if as a result of such amendment or modification or alteration, the interests of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees or the
        Securityholders would be materially adversely affected.

     

    (c)          Schedule of Receivables to Indenture Trustee.  The Servicer shall on or before the Closing Date (and, at any time thereafter, upon the request of
        the Indenture Trustee) deliver to the Indenture Trustee a copy of the Schedule of Receivables, which may be delivered in electronic format.

     

    
      12

      
        

    

    Section 3.08.  Purchase of Receivables Upon Breach.  The Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to
      this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Section 3.03, 3.06 or 3.07.  If such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes
      the 30th day after the date on which the Servicer becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Depositor, the Seller or the Owner Trustee of, such breach, and such breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the Issuer
      in a Receivable, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable from the Issuer, as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection Period, by remitting the Purchase Amount of such Receivable to the Collection Account in the manner
      specified in Section 4.07 on the related Deposit Date.  When the Purchase Amount is included in Available Collections for a Payment Date, the Issuer will, without further action, be deemed to have sold and assigned to the Servicer, effective as of
      the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in the Receivable purchased by the Servicer under this Section and all security and documents relating to such Receivable.  The
      sale will not require any action by the Issuer and will be without recourse, representation or warranty by the Issuer except the representation that the Issuer owns such Receivable free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens.  On the sale,
      the Servicer may take any action necessary or advisable to evidence the sale of such Receivable, free from any Lien of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.  The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Trustees and the Securityholders with respect to a breach
      of Section 3.03, 3.06 or 3.07 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section.  Neither Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase
      of any Receivable pursuant to this Section.

     

    Section 3.09.  Servicing Compensation; Payment of Certain Expenses by Servicer.  The Servicer shall receive the Monthly Servicing Fee for servicing the Receivables.  As
      additional servicing compensation, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive or retain the Supplemental Servicing Fee.  The Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with the activities under this Agreement (including the
      Independent accountants and any subservicer, taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Securityholders and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement to be for the
      account of the Securityholders), except expenses incurred in realizing upon Receivables under Section 3.04.

     

    Section 3.10.  Investor Report.

     

    (a)          On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Seller and the Trustees, an Investor Report in respect of the related Collection
        Period and Payment Date and all information necessary for the Trustees, as applicable, to send (or provide access to via the internet) statements to Securityholders pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Indenture and Section 5.01(b) of the Trust
        Agreement.  The Servicer shall also specify to the Trustees, no later than the Determination Date following the last day of a Collection Period as of which the Seller shall separately identify (by account number), in a written notice to the
        Depositor and the Trustees, the Receivables to be repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer, as the case may be, on the related Deposit Date.

     

    (b)          On or prior to the 15th day following each Payment Date, the Servicer will prepare a Form ABS-EE, including an asset data file and asset-related document containing the
        asset-level information for each Receivable for the prior Collection Period as required by Item 1A of Form 10-D.

     

    
      13

      
        

    

    Section 3.11.  Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Servicer Termination Events.

     

    (a)          The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Trustees and the Rating Agencies, within 90 days of the end of each calendar year, an Officer’s Certificate of the
        Servicer, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period ended December 31 (or, if applicable, such shorter period as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such
        Officer’s Certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this
        Agreement in all material respects throughout such period, or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

     

    (b)          The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, an
        Officer’s Certificate specifying any event which constitutes or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, a Servicer Termination Event.

     

    Section 3.12.  Annual Accountants’ Report.

     

    (a)          The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or to the Depositor or their respective
        Affiliates) to deliver to the Depositor and, if required or requested, to the Trustees within 90 days of the end of each calendar year, a report with respect to the preceding 12-month period ended December 31 (or, if applicable, such shorter period
        as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such report) or other report to the effect that such accountants have examined, on a test basis, evidence of the Servicer’s compliance with the covenants and conditions set forth
        in this Agreement.  The report will express an opinion on the Servicer’s assertion that the Servicer complied in all material respects with the aforementioned covenants and conditions is fairly stated, in all material respects or the reason why
        such an opinion cannot be expressed.  Such report shall also indicate that the firm is Independent with respect to the Depositor and the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public
        Accountants. The requirement of this subparagraph shall apply only so long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act reports, or to the extent that Regulation AB otherwise requires, in each case with respect to the transaction contemplated
        by the Basic Documents.

     

    (b)          Notwithstanding Section 3.12(a), within 90 days of the end of each calendar year, the Servicer shall deliver the report and attestation set forth in Sections 3.12(c) and
        (d) and the delivery of a copy of such report and attestation to the Depositor and the Trustees shall be deemed to satisfy the provisions of this Section.

     

    (c)          As and when required pursuant to Section 3.12(b), the Servicer will deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees a report regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance
        with the applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB during the immediately preceding calendar year (or, if applicable, such shorter period as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such
        report), in accordance with paragraph (b) of Rule 13a‐18 and Rule 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB.  Such report shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Servicer and shall address each of the applicable servicing
        criteria specified in Part I of Schedule C hereto.

     

    
      14

      
        

    

    (d)          The Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized Independent public accountants to furnish to the Depositor and the Trustees, concurrently with the report delivered
        pursuant to Section 3.12(c), an attestation report providing its assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria covered in such report during the preceding fiscal year, including disclosure of any material instance of non-compliance, as
        required by Rule 13a‐18 or Rule 15d-18 under the Exchange Act and Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB.  Any such attestation report shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act,
        stating, among other things, that the Servicer’s assertion of compliance with the specified servicing criteria is fairly stated in all material respects, or the reason why such an opinion cannot be expressed.  Such report must be available for
        general use and not contain restricted use language.

     

    Section 3.13.  Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables.  Subject to Section 2.07(b), the Servicer shall provide the Depositor and the
      Trustees with access to the Receivables Files in the cases where the related Trustee or the Securityholders are required by Applicable Law to have access to such documentation.  Such access shall be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable
      request and during normal business hours which does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations or customer or employee relations of the Servicer, at the offices of the Servicer.  Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of the
      Servicer to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

     

    Section 3.14.  Reports to the Commission.  The Servicer shall, on behalf of the Issuer, cause to be filed with the Commission any periodic reports required to be filed
      under the provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.  The Depositor shall, at its expense, cooperate in any reasonable request made by the Servicer in connection with such filings.

     

    Section 3.15.  Reports to Rating Agencies.  The Servicer shall deliver to each Rating Agency, at such address as such Rating Agency may request, to the extent it is
      available to the Servicer, a copy of all reports or notices furnished or delivered pursuant to this Article and a copy of any amendments, supplements or modifications to this Agreement and any other information reasonably requested by such Rating
      Agency.

     

    Section 3.16.  Asset Representations Review.

     

    (a)          If a Delinquency Trigger has occurred with respect to any Collection Period, the Servicer will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee thereof and include in the related
        Investor Report a notice of occurrence of the Delinquency Trigger and of the rights of the Noteholders and Note Owners pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture regarding Review by the Asset Representations Reviewer.  The Indenture Trustee shall
        not be deemed to have knowledge that any Repurchase Request remained unresolved for 180 days unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge, or has received written notice, that such Repurchase Request in fact remained
        unresolved for 180 days.  The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation under the Indenture or otherwise to monitor repurchase activity or to independently determine which Repurchase Requests remain unresolved after 180 days.

     

    
      15

      
        

    

    (b)          Upon receipt of notice from the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture regarding the demand by the Noteholders or the Note Owners to initiate a vote on
        whether a Review shall be conducted by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer will include in the related Investor Report to be filed with the Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which such demand was received (i) a statement
        that Noteholders and Note Owners of a sufficient percentage of the aggregate Note Balance of the Notes are requesting a full Noteholder vote on whether to direct the Asset Representations Reviewer to conduct a Review and (ii) a description of the
        applicable voting procedures, including the applicable voting deadline, which shall be no earlier than 150 days after the date of the filing of such Form 10-D report.

     

    (c)          Upon receipt of the Review Notice from the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the Servicer shall (i) identify as “Review Assets” within the
        meaning of the Asset Representations Review Agreement all Receivables that are 60 days or more Delinquent (but are not Defaulted Receivables), (ii) provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer a list of such Review Assets in accordance with
        Section 3.01 of the Asset Representations Review Agreement, (iii) provide such other reasonable assistance to the Asset Representations Reviewer as it may reasonably request in order to facilitate the Review pursuant to the Asset Representations
        Review Agreement and (iv) include in the Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which the Review Notice was received that the Noteholders and Note Owners of a majority of the Note Balance of Outstanding Notes voted to agree to a Review and a
        Review will be conducted.

     

    (d)          Upon receipt of a copy of the Review Report from the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to the Asset Representations Review Agreement, the Servicer will include in the
        Investor Report to be filed with the Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which such Review Report was received a summary of the results of the Review set forth in such Review Report.

     

    (e)          Upon receipt of a copy of the Review Report, the Servicer (i) will review such Review Report and, with respect to any Receivable as to which the Review Report indicated a
        Test Fail, make a determination for each Test Fail whether a breach of a representation and warranty that materially and adversely affects the interest of the Issuer in the related Receivable has occurred and (ii) may, or if it determines that such
        a breach has occurred, shall deposit the related Payment Amount with respect to such Receivable in accordance with Section 3.08.

     

    (f)          If during any Collection Period the Servicer receives notice or has actual knowledge that the Asset Representations Reviewer has resigned or has been removed, replaced or
        substituted, or if a successor Asset Representations Reviewer has been appointed, the Servicer will include in the related Form 10-D report the date of such event and a general statement of the circumstances surrounding the change.

    Section 3.17.  Dispute Resolution.

     

    (a)          Referral to Dispute Resolution.  If any Requesting Party makes a Repurchase Request, and the Repurchase Request has not fulfilled or otherwise resolved to the
        reasonable satisfaction of the Requesting Party within 180 days of the Depositor’s or Seller’s receipt thereof, the Requesting Party may refer the matter, in its discretion, to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or binding
        third-party arbitration.  The Requesting Party must commence the mediation or arbitration proceeding according to the ADR Rules of the ADR Organization, in each case within 90 days after the end of such 180-day period.  The Depositor and the Seller
        agree to participate in the dispute resolution method selected by the Requesting Party.  In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be a Requesting Party or pursue dispute resolution unless it is directed to do so by the Noteholders or Note Owners of
        at least 5.0% of the Note Balance of the Notes, and such Noteholders or Note Owners shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements, advances and liabilities
        that might be incurred by it, its agents and its counsel in compliance with such direction.

     

    (b)          Mediation.  If the Requesting Party selects mediation (including non-binding arbitration) for dispute resolution:

     

    (i)          The mediation will be administered by the ADR Organization using its ADR Rules.  If, however, any ADR Rules are inconsistent with the procedures for
        mediation in this Section, the procedures in this Section will control.

     

    (ii)          A single mediator will be selected by the ADR Organization from a list of neutrals maintained by it according to the ADR Rules.

     

    (iii)         The mediation will start within 15 days after the selection of the mediator and conclude within 30 days after the start of the mediation.

     

    (iv)         Expenses of the mediation will be allocated to the parties as mutually agreed by them as part of the mediation.

     

    (v)          If the parties fail to agree at the completion of the mediation, the Requesting Party may refer the Repurchase Request to arbitration under this Section.

     

    (c)          Arbitration.  If the Requesting Party selects binding arbitration for dispute resolution:

     

    (i)          The arbitration will be administered by the ADR Organization using its ADR Rules.  If, however, any ADR Rules are inconsistent with the
      procedures for arbitration stated in this Section, the procedures in this Section will control.

     

    (ii)          A single arbitrator will be selected by the ADR Organization from a list of neutrals maintained by it according to the ADR Rules.  The arbitrator will
        be independent and impartial and will comply with the Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes in effect at the time of the arbitration.  Before accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely
        to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the proceedings within the stated time schedule.  The arbitrator may be removed by the ADR Organization for cause consisting of actual bias,
        conflict of interest or other serious potential for conflict.

     

    
      17

      
        

    

    (iii)         The arbitrator will have the authority to schedule, hear and determine any motions, according to New York law, and will do so at the motion of any
        party.  Discovery will be scheduled for completion within 60 days of selection of the arbitrator and will be limited for each party to two witness depositions not to exceed five hours, two interrogatories, one document request and one request for
        admissions.  The arbitrator may, however, grant additional discovery on a showing of good cause that the additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.  Briefs may not exceed ten pages, and will be limited to initial statements of the case,
        motions and a pre-hearing brief.  The evidentiary hearing on the merits will start no later than 90 days after selection of the arbitrator and will proceed for no more than 10 Business Days with equal time allocated to each party for the
        presentation of evidence and cross examination.  The arbitrator may allow additional time for discovery and hearings on a showing of good cause or due to unavoidable delays.

     

    (iv)         The arbitrator will make its final determination no later than 120 days after its selection.  The arbitrator will resolve the dispute according to the
        terms of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, and may not in any way modify or change this Agreement or the other Basic Documents.  The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any
        arbitration.  In its final determination, the arbitrator will determine and award the expenses of the arbitration (including filing fees, the fees of the arbitrator, expenses of any record or transcript of the arbitration and administrative fees)
        to the parties in its reasonable discretion.  The determination of the arbitrator will be in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the parties.  The determination will be final and non-appealable, except for actions to
        confirm or vacate the determination permitted under United States federal or State law, and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

     

    (v)          By selecting binding arbitration, the Requesting Party waives the right to bring an action in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

     

    (vi)         The Requesting Party may not, and hereby waives any right, to bring a putative or certificated class action or any type of representative action to
        arbitration.  If this waiver of class action rights is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the Requesting Party agrees that it will bring its claims in a court of competent jurisdiction.

     

    (d)          Additional Conditions.  For each mediation or arbitration:

     

    (i)          Each mediator or arbitrator must be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation and, if possible,
      consumer finance or asset-backed securitization matters.

     

    
      18

      
        

    

    (ii)          The mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York at the offices of the mediator or arbitrator or at another location selected by
      the Servicer.  Any party or witness may participate by teleconference or video conference.

     

    (iii)          The Seller, the Depositor and the Requesting Party will have the right to seek provisional relief from a competent court of law, including a temporary
        restraining order, preliminary injunction or attachment order, if such relief is available by law.

     

    (iv)          Neither the Seller not the Depositor shall be required to produce personally identifiable customer
      information for purposes of any mediation or arbitration.  The existence and details of any unresolved Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings, the nature and amount of any relief sought or granted, any offers
      or statements made and any discovery taken in the proceeding, will be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose in any mediation, arbitration, litigation or other proceeding.  The parties will keep this information confidential and will not disclose or discuss it with any third party (other than a party's attorneys, experts, accountants and other advisors, as reasonably required in connection with the mediation or arbitration proceeding under
        this Section), except as required by Applicable Law.  If a party to a mediation or arbitration proceeding receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a Governmental Authority) for confidential information of
        the other party to the mediation or arbitration proceeding, the recipient will promptly notify the other party and will provide the other party with the opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

     

    (v)          To the extent the Indenture Trustee is found responsible for any expenses allocated to the Requesting Party in any dispute resolution proceeding, such
        expenses shall be payable to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 2.08 of the Indenture, and if not so paid, then by the Seller.

        Indenture Trustee” (the “Collection Account”);

     

    (ii)          the Noteholders, designated as the “Mercedes-Benz Auto Receivables Trust 2022-1 Note Payment Account, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association,
        Indenture Trustee” (the “Note Payment Account”); and

    (iii)          the Noteholders, which has been pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, designated as the “Mercedes-Benz
        Auto Receivables Trust 2022-1 Reserve Fund, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, Indenture Trustee” (the “Reserve Fund”);

     

    in each case bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the related Persons.  The Accounts shall be under the control of the Securities Intermediary on behalf of the Indenture
      Trustee; provided, however, that the Servicer may direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to make (or cause to be made) deposits to and withdrawals from the applicable Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.  All
      monies deposited from time to time in the Accounts shall be held by, or in the name of, the Indenture Trustee as part of the Trust Property, and all deposits to and withdrawals therefrom shall be made only upon the terms and conditions of the Basic
      Documents.  Amounts on deposit in each Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be invested, as directed in writing by the Servicer, in Eligible Investments.  If, at any time, any of the Accounts ceases to be an Eligible Deposit
      Account, the Servicer shall, as soon as commercially practicable but in any event within 60 calendar days, establish and maintain a new Eligible Deposit Account for such Account and for all cash and investments held in such Account.

     

    (b)          The Issuer and the Servicer agree that each institution, with which an Account is established, will agree substantially as follows:

     

    (i)          it will comply with Entitlement Orders related to such account issued by the Indenture Trustee, without further consent by the Servicer;

     

    (ii)          until termination of this Agreement, it will not enter into any other agreement related to such Account pursuant to which it agrees to comply with
        Entitlement Orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee;

     

    (iii)         all Account Collateral delivered or credited to it in connection with such account and all proceeds thereof will be promptly credited to such Account;

     

    (iv)         it will treat all Account Collateral as Financial Assets; and

     

    (v)          all Account Collateral will be physically delivered (accompanied by any required endorsements) to, or credited to an account in the name of, the
        institution maintaining the related Account in accordance with such institution’s customary procedures such that such institution establishes a Security Entitlement in favor of the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto over which the Indenture
        Trustee has Control.

     

    (c)          If on any Payment Date the sum of the amounts on deposit in the Collection Account for the related Collection Period and the Reserve Fund on such Payment Date equals or
        exceeds the Note Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all amounts due to the Servicer and the Trustees, all such amounts on deposit will be applied up to the amounts necessary to retire the Notes and pay such amounts due.

    Section 4.02.  Reserve Fund.

     

    (a)          On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit the Reserve Fund Deposit into the Reserve Fund from the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes.  The Reserve Fund Property
        has been conveyed by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.01(a).  Pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer will pledge all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Reserve Fund and the Reserve Fund Property to the Indenture
        Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders to secure its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture.

     

    (b)          If the Reserve Fund is no longer to be maintained at the Securities Intermediary or the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall, with MBFS USA’s and the Indenture Trustee’s
        prior approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) and assistance as necessary, promptly (and in any case within ten Business Days) cause the Reserve Fund to be moved to another institution.  The Servicer shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies and
        the Trustees in writing of any change in the account number or location of the Reserve Fund.

     

    (c)          On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee will deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the Reserve Fund, from amounts collected on or in respect of the Receivables during
        the related Collection Period and not used on that Payment Date to pay the Required Payment Amount, the amount, if any, by which the Reserve Fund Required Amount for that Payment Date exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on that
        Payment Date, after giving effect to all required withdrawals from the Reserve Fund on that Payment Date.

     

    (d)          On each Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the Reserve Fund Draw Amount, if any, for the related Payment Date.  If the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for any Payment
        Date is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw, or cause to be withdrawn, from the Reserve Fund, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund and the Reserve Fund Draw Amount, and transfer the amount
        withdrawn to the Collection Account on the Deposit Date.

     

    (e)          If the Reserve Fund Amount for any Payment Date (after giving effect to the withdrawal of the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for such Payment Date and the distribution described
        in the preceding sentence) exceeds the Reserve Fund Required Amount for such Payment Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing to distribute or cause to be distributed on the related Deposit Date, the amount of such excess
        to the Collection Account for payment to the Depositor on such Payment Date.  Any amount paid to the Depositor will no longer constitute a portion of the Trust Property and the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer hereby release, on each Payment Date,
        their security interest in, to and under the Reserve Fund Property distributed to the Depositor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, investment income for each Collection Period (net of losses and expenses) on amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund
        shall constitute Available Collections.

     

    (f)          If the Note Balance and all other amounts owing or to be distributed hereunder or under the Indenture to the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, the Trustees and the
        Servicer have been paid in full and the Issuer has been terminated, any remaining Reserve Fund Property shall be distributed to the Depositor.

    Section 4.03.  Monthly Remittance Condition.

     

    (a)          For so long as the Monthly Remittance Condition is (i) not met, the Servicer shall remit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables during any Collection
        Period to the Collection Account in immediately available funds no later than two Business Days after receipt and identification or (ii) met, the Servicer may remit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables during any Collection
        Period to the Collection Account in immediately available funds on or prior to the related Deposit Date.

     

    (b)          The Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account on or prior to the Closing Date all amounts received and identified by the Servicer on or in respect of the Receivables
        (including Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of a Financed Vehicle (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted Receivable)) during the period
        from but excluding the Cutoff Date to and including the second Business Day preceding the Closing Date.

     

    (c)          The Depositor and the Servicer may make any remittances pursuant to this Article with respect to a Collection Period net of distributions or reimbursements to be made to or
        by the Depositor or the Servicer with respect to such Collection Period; provided, however, that such obligations shall remain separate obligations, no party shall have a right of offset, and each such party shall account for all of the above
        described remittances and distributions as if the amounts were deposited or transferred separately.

     

    Section 4.04.  Collections.  Subject to Sections 4.03, 4.06 and 4.07(a), the Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account all amounts received by the Servicer on or in
      respect of the Receivables (including Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of a Financed Vehicle (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted
      Receivable) but excluding payments with respect to Purchased Receivables) as soon as practicable and in no event after the close of business on the second Business Day after such amounts have been received and identified.

     

    Section 4.05.  Application of Collections.  For purposes of this Agreement, all amounts received on or in respect of a Receivable during any Collection Period (including
      Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of a Financed Vehicle (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted Receivable) but excluding payments with
      respect to Purchased Receivables) shall be applied by the Servicer to interest and principal on such Receivable in accordance with the Simple Interest Method.

     

    
      22

      
        

    

    Section 4.06.  Advances.

     

    (a)          If, as of the end of any Collection Period, the payments received during such Collection Period by or on behalf of an Obligor in respect of a Receivable (other than a
        Purchased Receivable) shall be less than the related Monthly Payment, whether as a result of any extension granted to the Obligor or otherwise, then, at the option of the Servicer, an amount equal to the product of the Principal Balance of such
        Receivable as of the first day of the related Collection Period and one-twelfth of its APR minus the amount of interest actually received on such Receivable during such Collection Period (each, an “Advance”) may be deposited by the Servicer into
        the Collection Account on the related Deposit Date.  If such a calculation in respect of a Receivable results in a negative number, an amount equal to such negative amount shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of any outstanding Advances. 
        In addition, in the event that a Receivable becomes a Defaulted Receivable, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not including interest for the current Collection Period) shall, up to the amount of outstanding Advances, be
        withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of such outstanding Advances.  No Advances will be made with respect to the Principal Balance of Receivables.  The Servicer shall not be required to make an Advance to
        the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall determine that such Advance is likely to become a Nonrecoverable Advance.

     

    (b)          Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.06(a), the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for an outstanding Advance made in respect of a Receivable, without
        interest, from the following sources with respect to such Receivable: (i) subsequent payments made by or on behalf of the related Obligor, (ii) Net Liquidation Proceeds and Recoveries and (iii) the Purchase Amount.  If the Servicer determines that
        it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer shall reimburse itself, without interest, from unrelated amounts received by the Servicer on or in respect of the Receivables (including Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the
        Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of a Financed Vehicle (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted Receivable)) to the extent it shall, concurrently with the withholding of any such amounts from
        deposit in or credit to the Collection Account, furnish to the Trustees a certificate of a Servicing Officer setting forth the basis for the Servicer’s determination, the amount of, and Receivable with respect to which, such Nonrecoverable Advance
        was made and the installment or installments or other proceeds respecting which such reimbursement has been taken.

     

    Section 4.07.  Additional Deposits.

     

    (a)          The following additional deposits shall be made: (i) the Seller shall remit to the Collection Account the aggregate Purchase Amount with respect to Purchased Receivables
        pursuant to Section 2.05 or pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, (ii) the Servicer shall remit or cause to be remitted to the Collection Account (A) the aggregate Purchase Amount with respect to Purchased Receivables
        pursuant to Section 3.08 and (B) the amount required upon the optional purchase of all Receivables by the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01 and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall remit or shall cause to be remitted, pursuant to Section 4.02, the
        Reserve Fund Draw Amount to the Collection Account.

     

    (b)          All deposits required to be made in respect of a Collection Period pursuant to this Section by the Servicer may be made in the form of a single deposit and shall be made in
        immediately available funds, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Deposit Date.

    Section 4.08.  Determination Date Calculations; Application of Available Funds.

     

    (a)          On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the following amounts with respect to the related Payment Date and Collection Period:

     

    (i)          the Available Collections;

     

    (ii)         the Total Servicing Fee (including the amount of any Nonrecoverable Advances);

     

    (iii)        if not previously paid, the Total Trustee Fees and the Asset Representations Reviewer Fees;

     

    (iv)         the Interest Distributable Amount for each interest-bearing Class of Notes;

     

    (v)          the Priority Principal Distributable Amount;

     

    (vi)         the Regular Principal Distributable Amount; and

     

    (vii)        the sum of the amounts described in clauses (ii) through (v) above (the “Required Payment Amount”); provided, however, that so long as the Notes
        have not been accelerated in accordance with the Indenture following an Event of Default, the aggregate amount to be included in the Required Payment Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above shall not exceed $250,000 in any given calendar year;
        provided, further that the Required Payment Amount with respect to each Payment Date shall be reduced by any unreimbursed Advance and any amounts payable to the Servicer, so long as MBFS USA or any affiliate thereof is the Servicer.

     

    On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Reserve Fund Amount, the Reserve Fund Required Amount, the Reserve Fund Draw Amount and the amount, if any, by which the Reserve Fund Required Amount exceeds
      the Reserve Fund Amount (after giving effect to any deposits to the Reserve Fund and the withdrawal of the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for such Payment Date).

     

    (b)          On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to apply (or cause to be applied) on the related Payment Date, the Available Funds for such
        Payment Date to make the related payments and deposits set forth in Section 2.08 of the Indenture.

    Section 4.09.  Statements to Securityholders.  Within the prescribed period of time for tax reporting purposes after the end of each calendar year during the term of the
      Issuer, but not later than the latest date permitted by Applicable Law, the Servicer shall cause each Trustee to make available to each Person who at any time during such calendar year shall have been a Securityholder, a statement, prepared by the
      Servicer, containing certain information for such calendar year or, in the event such Person shall have been a Securityholder during a portion of such calendar year, for the applicable portion of such year, for the purposes of such Securityholder’s
      preparation of United States federal income tax returns.  In addition, the Servicer shall furnish to the Trustees for distribution to such Person at such time any other information necessary under Applicable Law for the preparation of such income tax
      returns.

     

    ARTICLE FIVE

     

    THE DEPOSITOR

     

    Section 5.01.  Representations and Warranties of Depositor.  The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied
      in acquiring the Trust Property.  The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Trust Property to
      the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

     

    (a)          Organization and Good Standing.  The Depositor has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the

        to acquire, own and sell the Receivables.

     

    (b)          Due Qualification.  The Depositor is duly qualified to do business as a foreign limited liability company in good standing and has obtained all necessary licenses
        and approvals in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify or to obtain such licenses and approvals would, in the reasonable judgment of the Depositor, materially and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations
        under, or the validity or enforceability of, the Depositor Basic Documents, the Receivables or the Securities.

     

    (c)          Power and Authority.  The Depositor has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Depositor Basic Documents.  The Depositor

    (d)          Valid Sale; Binding Obligation.  This Agreement effects a valid sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance to the Issuer of the Receivables and the other Trust
        Property, enforceable against all creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.  Each Depositor Basic Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms,
        except as enforceability may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general, and by general
        principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.

     

    (e)          No Violation.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of the Depositor Basic Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
        and thereby and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof does not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, nor constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) a default under, the certificate
        of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Depositor, or conflict with or violate any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) a default under, any indenture, agreement or other
        instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it shall be bound or to which any of its properties is subject; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture,
        agreement or other instrument (other than this Agreement); nor violate any Applicable Law or, to the Depositor’s knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Depositor or of Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the
        Depositor or its properties, which conflict, breach, default, Lien or violation would have a material adverse effect on the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under or the validity or enforceability of, the Depositor Basic Documents,
        the Receivables or the Securities.

     

    (f)          No Proceedings.  There are no Proceedings or investigations pending, or to the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened against the Depositor, before any Governmental
        Authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of any Basic Document or the Securities, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the consummation of any of the transactions
        contemplated by the Basic Documents, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of the Depositor, would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or
        enforceability of, the Depositor Basic Documents, the Receivables or the Securities or (iv) relating to the Depositor and which might adversely affect the United States federal income tax attributes of the Issuer or the Securities.

     

    Section 5.02.  Liability of Depositor; Indemnities.

     

    (a)          The Depositor shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Depositor under this Agreement.

     

    (b)          The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee from and against any taxes that may at any time be asserted
        against any such Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, including any sales, gross receipts, gross margin, general corporation, tangible personal property, privilege or license taxes (but not including any
        taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer or the issuance and original sale of the Securities, or United States federal or State income taxes arising out of distributions on the Securities), and
        all costs and expenses in defending against such taxes including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with the enforcement of the Depositor’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder.

     

    
      26

      
        

    

    (c)          The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Trustees and the Securityholders from and against any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense
        incurred by reason of the Depositor’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) in the performance of its duties under the Depositor Basic Documents, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and
        duties under the Depositor Basic Documents, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with the enforcement of the Depositor’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder.

     

    (d)          The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trustees from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses arising out of or incurred in
        connection with the acceptance or performance of the trusts and duties contained herein, in the Trust Agreement (in the case of the Owner Trustee) and in the Indenture (in the case of the Indenture Trustee), including any Expenses incurred by the
        relevant party in connection with the enforcement of the Depositor’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (i) shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or
        negligence of the related Trustee, (ii) in the case of (A) the Owner Trustee, shall arise from the breach by the Owner Trustee of any of its representations or warranties set forth in the Trust Agreement or (B) the Indenture Trustee, shall arise
        from the breach by the Indenture Trustee of any of its representations and warranties set forth in the Indenture or shall arise out of or be incurred in connection with the performance by the Indenture Trustee of the duties of a Successor Servicer
        hereunder, (iii) shall be one as to which the Servicer is required to indemnify either Trustee or (iv) relates to any tax other than the taxes with respect to which the Servicer shall be required to indemnify either Trustee.  The Depositor shall
        pay any and all taxes levied or assessed upon all or any part of the Trust Property.

     

    (e)          Indemnification under this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, and the termination of this
        Agreement and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.  If the Depositor shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made
        thereafter shall collect any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Depositor, without interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Depositor shall only be required to pay (i)
        any fees, expenses, indemnities or other liabilities that it may incur under the Basic Documents from funds available pursuant to, and in accordance with, the payment priorities set forth in this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and (ii) to
        the extent the Depositor has additional funds available (other than funds described in clause (i) above) that would be in excess of amounts that would be necessary to pay the debt and other obligations of the Depositor in accordance with the
        Depositor’s certificate of formation, operating agreement and all financing documents to which the Depositor is a party.  The agreement set forth in the preceding sentence shall constitute a subordination agreement for purposes of Section 510(a) of
        the Bankruptcy Code.  In addition, no amount owing by the Depositor hereunder in excess of liabilities that it is required to pay in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a “claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy
        Code) against it.

    Section 5.03.  Merger, Consolidation or Assumption of the Obligations of Depositor.  Any Person (i) into which the Depositor shall be merged or consolidated, (ii)
      resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Depositor shall be a party or (iii) that shall succeed by purchase and assumption to all or substantially all of the business of the Depositor, which Person in any of the foregoing
      cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Depositor under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Depositor under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any other document or any further act on the
      part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (A) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustees an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession and
      such agreement of assumption comply with this Section, (B) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, either (1) all financing statements and continuation statements and
      amendments thereto have been authorized and filed that are necessary to fully preserve and protect the interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior
      Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, or (2) no such action shall be necessary to fully preserve and protect such interest and (C) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
      contained herein, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (A), (B) and (C) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

     

    Section 5.04.  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
      any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.   The Depositor shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be
      incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.  The indemnities contained in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Indenture Trustee or termination of this
      Agreement.

     

    Section 5.05.  Depositor Not to Resign.  Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, the Depositor shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it as
      Depositor hereunder.

     

    Section 5.06.  Depositor May Own Securities.  The Depositor and any of its Affiliates may, in its individual or any other capacity, become the owner or pledgee of
      Securities with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Basic Document (including in the definition of the terms “Note Balance” and
      “Outstanding”).  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Basic Documents (including in the definition of the terms “Note Balance” and “Outstanding”), Securities so owned by or pledged to the Depositor or such Affiliate shall
      have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, without preference, priority or distinction as among the Notes and the Certificates as the case may be.

     

    Section 5.07.  Covenants of Depositor.  The Depositor makes the following covenants as of the date of this Agreement:

     

    
      28

      
        

    

    (a)          The Depositor makes the covenants in Sections 2.08, 4.03(c)(iv) and 4.03(c)(v) of the Depositor Limited Liability Company Agreement, which covenants are hereby incorporated into and made a
      part of this Agreement.

     

    (b)          The Depositor shall not conduct or promote any activities except as set forth in Section 2.04 of the Depositor Limited Liability Company Agreement.

     

    ARTICLE SIX

     

    THE SERVICER

     

    Section 6.01.  Representations and Warranties of Servicer.  The Servicer makes the following representations and warranties on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied
      in acquiring the Trust Property.  The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Trust Property to
      the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:

     

    (a)          Organization and Good Standing.  The Servicer is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and continues to hold a
      valid certificate to do business as such.  It is duly authorized to own its properties and transact its business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the business transacted by it or any properties owned or leased by
      it requires such authorization and in which the failure to be so authorized would have a material adverse effect on its business, properties, assets or condition (financial or other) and those of its subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise.  The
      Servicer has, and at all relevant times had, the power, authority and legal right to service the Receivables and to hold the Receivable Files as custodian on behalf of the Issuer.

     

    (b)          Due Qualification.  The Servicer is duly qualified to do business in good standing and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction in which the failure to
      so qualify or to obtain such licenses and approvals would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, materially and adversely affect the performance by the Servicer of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, the Servicer Basic
      Documents, the Receivables or the Securities.

     

    (c)          Power and Authority.  The Servicer has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Servicer Basic Documents; and the execution, delivery and
      performance of the Servicer Basic Documents have been duly authorized by the Servicer by all necessary action.

     

    (d)          Binding Obligation.  Each Servicer Basic Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer, enforceable against the Servicer in accordance with its terms,
      except as enforceability may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general, and by general
      principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.

     

    
      29

      
        

    

    (e)          No Violation.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer of the Servicer Basic Documents, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the
      fulfillment of their respective terms shall 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 or both) a default under, the certificate of formation or limited
      liability company agreement of the Servicer, or any material indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Servicer is a party, by which the Servicer is bound or to which any of its properties are subject; 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 the Servicer Basic Documents, or violate any law, order, rule or
      regulation applicable to the Servicer or its properties of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer or any of its properties.

     

    (f)          No Proceedings.  There are no Proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Servicer, threatened, against the Servicer before any Governmental Authority having
      jurisdiction over the Servicer or its properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of any Basic Document, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, (iii)
      seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would materially and adversely affect the performance by it of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or the Receivables or
      (iv) seeking to adversely affect the United States federal income tax or other United States federal, State or local tax attributes of the Securities.

     

    Section 6.02.  Liability of Servicer; Indemnities.  The Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by
      the Servicer under this Agreement.  Such obligations shall include the following:

     

    (a)          The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Trustees, the Securityholders and the Depositor from and against all losses,
        liabilities, claims, damages and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with the use, ownership or operation by the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer of a Financed Vehicle, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in
        connection with enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder.

     

    (b)          The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Depositor and the Trustees from and against any taxes that may at any time be
        asserted against any such Person as a result of or relating to the transactions contemplated herein and in the other Basic Documents, including any sales, gross receipts, gross margin, general corporation, tangible personal property, privilege or
        license taxes (but not including any taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of, the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer or the issuance and original sale of the Securities, or United States federal or State income taxes arising out of
        distributions on the Securities) and costs and expenses in defending against such taxes, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder.

     

    
      30

      
        

    

    (c)          The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Trustees, the Securityholders and the Depositor from and against any loss,
        liability, claim, damage or expense incurred by reason of the Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties under the Servicer Basic Documents or by reason of a reckless disregard of its obligations and
        duties under the Servicer Basic Documents, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder.

     

    (d)          The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trustees and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against all
        losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with the acceptance or performance of the trusts and duties herein and contained in the Trust Agreement (in the case of the Owner Trustee) and contained in
        the Indenture (in the case of the Indenture Trustee), including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such loss,
        liability, claim, damage or expense: (i) shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (except for errors in judgment) of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, (ii) in the case of the Owner Trustee, shall
        arise from the breach by the Owner Trustee of any of its representations or warranties set forth in Section 7.03 of the Trust Agreement, (iii) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, shall arise from the breach by the Indenture Trustee of any of its
        representations and warranties set forth in the Indenture or shall arise out of or be incurred in connection with the performance by the Indenture Trustee of the duties of a Successor Servicer hereunder or (iv) relates to any tax other than to the
        taxes with respect to which either the Depositor or the Servicer shall be required to indemnify the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable.

     

    (e)          The Servicer shall pay the Owner Trustee compensation, reimbursement or other payments owed to it pursuant to Sections 8.01 and 8.02 of the Trust
        Agreement.

     

    In addition to the foregoing indemnities, if either Trustee is entitled to indemnification by the Depositor pursuant to Section 5.02 and the Depositor is unable for any reason to provide such indemnification to either
      Trustee, then the Servicer shall be liable for any indemnification that such Trustee is entitled to under Section 5.02.  For purposes of this Section, in the event of a termination of the rights and obligations of the Servicer (or any Successor
      Servicer) pursuant to Section 7.01 or a resignation by such Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, such Servicer shall be deemed to be the Servicer pending appointment of a Successor Servicer (other than the Indenture Trustee) pursuant to Section 7.02. 
      Indemnification under this Section by the Servicer (or any Successor Servicer), with respect to the period such Person was (or was deemed to be) the Servicer, shall survive the termination of each Person as Servicer or a resignation by such Person as
      Servicer, as well as the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, or the termination of this Agreement and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.  If the
      Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer,
      as the case may be, without interest.

     

    
      31

      
        

    

    Section 6.03.  Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of Servicer.  Any Person (i) into which the Servicer shall be merged or consolidated, (ii)
      which may result from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party or (iii) which may succeed to all or substantially all of the business of the Servicer, which Person in any of the foregoing cases is an Eligible
      Servicer and executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any other document or any further act on
      the part of any of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Servicer shall have delivered to the Depositor and the Trustees (a) an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such merger, conversion or consolidation and such
      agreement of assumption comply with this Section and (b) an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, either (1) all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been authorized and filed that
      are necessary to preserve and protect the interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the assets of the Issuer and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given
      or (2) no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (a) and (b) above shall be
      conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.  The Servicer shall provide prior written notice of any merger, conversion, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section to the Trustees, the
      Rating Agencies and the Depositor.  The Servicer shall provide such information in writing as reasonably requested by the Depositor to allow the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations with respect to a Successor Servicer.

     

    Section 6.04.  Limitation on Liability of Servicer and Others.

     

    (a)          Neither the Servicer nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be under any liability to the Issuer or any
        Securityholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant hereto, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability that
        would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.  The Servicer and any of its respective directors, officers,
        employees or agents may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person in respect of any matters arising under this Agreement.

     

    (b)          Except as provided herein, the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that
        shall not be incidental to its duties to administer and service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any reasonable
        action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the interests of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders under this Agreement.  In such event, the legal
        expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Servicer.

     

    
      32

      
        

    

    Section 6.05.  MBFS USA Not to Resign as Servicer.  MBFS USA will not resign as Servicer under this Agreement except upon determination that the performance of its duties
      under this Agreement is no longer permissible under Applicable Law.  Prior to the effectiveness of such resignation, MBFS USA will deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees (i) notice of any such determination permitting the resignation of MBFS USA
      as Servicer and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to such effect.  Any such resignation will become effective in accordance with Section 7.02.

     

    Section 6.06.  Servicer May Own Securities.  The Servicer and any of its Affiliates may, in its individual or other capacity, become the owner or pledgee of Securities
      with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Basic Document (including in the definition of the terms “Note Balance” and
      “Outstanding”).  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Basic Documents (including in the definition of the terms “Note Balance” and “Outstanding”), Securities so owned by or pledged to the Servicer or such Affiliate shall have
      an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, without preference, priority or distinction as among the Notes and the Certificates, as the case may be.

     

    ARTICLE SEVEN

     

    SERVICER TERMINATION EVENTS

     

    Section 7.01.  Servicer Termination Events.  The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute an event of servicing termination hereunder (each, a
      “Servicer Termination Event”):

     

    (a)          any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee the Investor Report for any Collection Period, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of two Business
      Days following the date such Investor Report was required to be delivered and the related Payment Date, or any failure by the Servicer to make any required payment or deposit under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the
      earlier of five Business Days following the date such payment or deposit was due or, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Payment Date or the related Deposit Date, such Payment Date or Deposit Date, as applicable;

     

    (b)          any failure by the Servicer to duly observe or to perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement of the Servicer set forth in this
        Agreement, which failure shall materially and adversely affect the rights of the Depositor or the Noteholders and shall continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be
        remedied, shall have been given (i) to the Servicer by the Depositor or either Trustee or (ii) to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustees by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the Notes (or, after the
        Notes have been paid in full, the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding);

     

    
      33

      
        

    

    (c)          any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in this Agreement, or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, other
        than any representation or warranty relating to a Receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, proving to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made, and the circumstance or condition in
        respect of which such representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such circumstance or condition, requiring the same to be eliminated
        or cured, shall have been given (i) to the Servicer by the Depositor or either Trustee or (ii) to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustees by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the Notes; or

     

    (d)          an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer.

     

    If a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Notes (or holders of
      Certificates representing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests outstanding if the Notes are no longer Outstanding), in each case by providing a Servicer Termination Notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the
      Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Noteholders) may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that the indemnification obligations of
      the Servicer under Section 6.02 shall survive such termination.

     

    On or after the receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates, the Trust Property or
      otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 7.02; and, without limitation, the Trustees are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and
      deliver, on behalf of the outgoing 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 Receivable Files or the certificates of title to the Financed Vehicles, or otherwise.  The outgoing Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and such
      Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the outgoing Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts
      that shall at the time be held by the outgoing Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the outgoing Servicer, in the Accounts or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables, all Receivable Files and all information or documents that
      the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer may require, and the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or expenses to the extent that it cannot perform its obligations hereunder due to the failure of the
      predecessor Servicer to so deliver.  In addition, the Servicer shall transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Successor Servicer in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request.  All Transition Costs shall be paid by the outgoing Servicer (or by the initial Servicer if the outgoing Servicer is the Indenture Trustee acting on an interim basis) upon presentation of reasonable documentation
      of such costs and expenses.

     

    
      34

      
        

    

    The Trustees shall have no obligation to notify the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any other Person of the occurrence of any event specified in this Section prior to the continuance of such event through the end
      of any cure period specified in this Section.

     

    Section 7.02.  Appointment of Successor Servicer.  Upon the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05 or the termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section
      7.01, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the obligations and duties placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this
      Agreement, and shall provide such information in writing as reasonably requested by the Depositor to allow the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations with respect to the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Successor
      Servicer; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, as Successor Servicer, shall not, in any event, be required to make any Advances pursuant to Section 4.06 and shall have no obligations pursuant to Section 3.09 with respect to the fees and
      expenses of the Trustees, the fees and expenses of the attorneys for the Trustees, the fees and expenses of any custodian appointed by the Trustees, the fees and expenses of Independent accountants or expenses incurred in connection with
      distributions and reports to the Securityholders, nor shall it have any obligation for the payment of fees pursuant to Section 10.17.  As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall 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 no such resignation or termination had occurred, except that all collections on or in respect of the Receivables shall be deposited in the Collection
      Account within two Business Days of receipt and shall not be retained by the Servicer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint, or petition a
      court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an Eligible Servicer as the successor to the terminated Servicer under this Agreement.  In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such
      Successor Servicer out of Available Collections for each Payment Date as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that such compensation shall not be greater than that payable to MBFS USA as initial Servicer hereunder without the prior
      consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Notes (or Holders of Certificates representing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding if the Notes are no longer
      Outstanding).  The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession, including providing such information in writing as reasonably requested by the
      Depositor to allow the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations with respect to such Successor Servicer.  The Indenture Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties as Successor Servicer under this Section until a newly
      appointed Servicer shall have assumed the obligations and duties of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or
      for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer hereunder or the responsibilities of the Servicer set forth in Section 3.08 and 3.16.

     

    
      35

      
        

    

    Section 7.03.  Effect of Servicing Transfer.

     

    (a)          After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the Indenture Trustee or Successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the Successor Servicer payments that are
        due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer.

     

    (b)          Except as provided in Section 7.02, after a transfer of servicing hereunder, the outgoing Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the administration,
        servicing, custody or collection of the Receivables and the Successor Servicer shall have all of such obligations, except that the outgoing Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly to the Successor Servicer for its own account,
        promptly on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts or items held by the outgoing Servicer (properly endorsed where required for the Successor Servicer to collect any such items) received as payments upon or otherwise in
        connection with the Receivables.

     

    (c)          Any Successor Servicer shall provide the Depositor with access to the Receivable Files and to the Successor Servicer’s records (whether written or automated) with respect
        to the Receivable Files.  Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Successor Servicer.  Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of a Successor
        Servicer to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

     

    (d)          Any transfer of servicing hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related Successor Servicer of any liability of the related outgoing Servicer arising out of
        any breach by such outgoing Servicer of such outgoing Servicer’s duties hereunder prior to such transfer of servicing.

     

    Section 7.04.  Notification to Noteholders and Rating Agencies.  Upon any notice of a Servicer Termination Event or upon any termination of, or any appointment of a
      successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders, the Rating Agencies and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

     

    Section 7.05.  Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events.  The Noteholders evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Notes may, on behalf of all
      Noteholders, waive any Servicer Termination Event and its consequences, except an event resulting from the failure to make any required deposits to or payments from the Accounts in accordance with this Agreement.  Upon any such waiver of a Servicer
      Termination Event, such event shall cease to exist, and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement.  No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right arising therefrom, except to the
      extent expressly so waived.

    Section 7.06.  Repayment of Advances.  If the identity of the Servicer shall change, the outgoing Servicer shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for outstanding and
      unreimbursed Advances made pursuant to Section 4.06 by the outgoing Servicer.

    TERMINATION

     

    Section 8.01.  Optional Purchase of All Receivables.

     

    (a)          If, as of the last day of any Collection Period, the Pool Balance shall be less than or equal to 5% of the Cutoff Date Pool Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to
        purchase on the following Payment Date the Trust Estate, other than the Accounts.  To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Trustees and the Rating Agencies, not fewer than ten nor more than 30 days prior to the Payment
        Date on which such repurchase is to be effected and shall deposit into the Collection Account on the related Deposit Date an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables (including Receivables that became Defaulted Receivables
        during the related Collection Period), less the Reserve Fund Amount, which funds shall be transferred from the Reserve Fund into the Collection Account.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be permitted to exercise such option
        unless the amount to be deposited in the Collection Account (together with amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund and the Collection Account) pursuant to this Section is at least equal to the sum of all amounts due to the Servicer under this
        Agreement plus the Note Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Notes plus all amounts due to the Servicer for any outstanding and unreimbursed Advances and Nonrecoverable Advances plus all accrued but
        unpaid Total Trustee Fees and Asset Representations Reviewer Fees.  Upon such payment, the Seller shall succeed to and own all interests in and to the Issuer.  The aggregate amount so deposited in respect of such Payment Date, plus, to the extent
        necessary, all amounts in the Reserve Fund, if any, shall be used to make payments in full to the Noteholders in the manner set forth in Article Four.

     

    (b)          Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders shall succeed to the
        rights of the Noteholders hereunder and under the other Basic Documents and the Indenture Trustee shall continue to carry out its obligations hereunder with respect to the Certificateholders, including making distributions from the Collection
        Account in accordance with Section 4.08(c) and making withdrawals from the Reserve Fund in accordance with Sections 4.02 and 4.07.

     

    Section 8.02.  Termination.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the maturity or
      liquidation of the latest maturing Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received thereon in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Indenture, (ii) the payment to the Securityholders of all amounts required to be paid to them under the Basic
      Documents and (iii) the exercise by the Servicer of its rights under Section 8.01, the deposit into the Collection Account by the Servicer of the amount required to be deposited therein in accordance with Section 8.01 and the application of such
      amounts in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Indenture.

    Section 9.01.  Further Assurances.  The Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the
      Depositor’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act with respect to the Issuer.  The Depositor shall not exercise its right to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good faith.  In addition to

      information which is available to such Person without unreasonable effort or expense and within such timeframe as may be reasonably requested by the Depositor to comply with the Depositor’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act and (ii) to the
      extent such Person is a party (and the Depositor is not a party) to any agreement or amendment required to be filed, copies of such agreement or amendment in EDGAR-compatible form.  Each of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee acknowledges that
      interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or
      otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB.

     

    Section 9.02.  Form 10-D Filings.  So long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Issuer, no later than each Determination Date,
      each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall notify (and the Servicer shall cause any subservicer to notify) the Depositor of any Form 10-D Disclosure Item with respect to such Person (or in the case of the Indenture Trustee, a Responsible
      Officer of such Person), together with a description of any such Form 10-D Disclosure Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Depositor.  In addition to such information as the Servicer is obligated to provide pursuant to other
      provisions of this Agreement, if so requested by the Depositor, the Servicer shall provide such information which is available to the Servicer, without unreasonable effort or expense regarding the performance or servicing of the Receivables as is
      reasonably required to facilitate preparation of distribution reports in accordance with Item 1121 of Regulation AB.  Such information shall be provided concurrently with the statements to Securityholders pursuant to Section 4.09, commencing with the
      first such report due not less than five Business Days following such request.

     

    Section 9.03.  Form 8-K Filings.  So long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Issuer, each of the Indenture Trustee and the
      Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor, but in no event later than two Business Days after its occurrence, of any Reportable Event of which such Person (or in the case of the Indenture Trustee, a Responsible Officer of such Person) has actual
      knowledge.  Each Person shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of any such event to the extent that it relates to such Person or any action or failure to act by such Person.

    Section 9.04.  Form 10-K Filings.  So long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports, (i) if the Item 1119 Parties listed on Schedule B have changed since
      the Closing Date, no later than February 1 of each year, commencing in 2023, the Depositor shall provide each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer with an updated Schedule B setting forth the Item 1119 Parties and (ii) no later than March 15 of
      each year, commencing in 2023, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall notify the Depositor of any Form 10-K Disclosure Item, together with a description of any such Form 10-K Disclosure Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
      Depositor.

     

    Section 9.05.  Report on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation.  So long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports, on or before March 15 of each
      calendar year, commencing in 2023:

     

    (a)          The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer the Servicing Criteria Assessment.  Such report shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Indenture Trustee and
      shall at a minimum address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on a certification substantially in the form of Part I of Schedule C hereto delivered to the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (provided that such
      certification may be revised after the date of this Agreement as agreed by the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee to reflect any guidance with respect to such criteria from the Commission).  To the extent any of the Servicing Criteria are not
      applicable to the Indenture Trustee, with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken as a whole involving the Indenture Trustee and that are backed by the same asset type backing the Notes, such report shall include such a statement to
      that effect.  The Indenture Trustee acknowledges and agrees that the Depositor and the Servicer with respect to its duties as the Certifying Person, and each of their respective officers and directors shall be entitled to rely upon each such
      Servicing Criteria Assessment and the attestation delivered pursuant to Section 9.05(b).

     

    (b)          The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a report of a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the assessment of compliance made by
      the Indenture Trustee and delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph.  Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 13a‐18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act (or any successor provisions), Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X (or any
      successor provisions) under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, in the event that an overall opinion cannot be expressed, a statement by such registered public accounting firm in such report as to why it was unable to express such an
      opinion.  Such report must be available for general use and not contain restricted use language.

     

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

        Servicer), in each case on which the Certification Parties can reasonably rely; provided that so long as the Servicer is an Affiliate of the Depositor, the Servicer may, but is not required to deliver the Performance Certificate.

     

    (b)          The Depositor will not request delivery of a certification under this Section unless the Depositor is required under the Exchange Act to file an annual report on Form 10-K
        with respect to the Issuer.  In the event that prior to the filing date of the Form 10-K in March of each year, the Servicer has actual knowledge of information material to the Sarbanes-Oxley Certification, the Servicer shall promptly notify the
        Depositor.

     

    Section 9.07.  Representations and Warranties.  As of the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee represents that:

     

    (i)          there are no affiliations relating to the Indenture Trustee with respect to any Item 1119 Party;

     

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

     

    (iii)         except as disclosed in the Prospectus, there are no legal Proceedings pending, or known to be contemplated by Governmental Authorities, against the
        Indenture Trustee, or of which the property of the Indenture Trustee is subject, that is material to the Noteholders.

    (a)          Each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer (if the Servicer is not MBFS USA) shall indemnify the Depositor, the Servicer (if MBFS USA is the Servicer) with respect to
        its duties as Certifying Person and each Person who controls any of such parties (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the respective present and former directors, officers, employees and
        agents of each of the foregoing, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them
        may sustain arising out of or based upon:

     

    (i)          (A) any untrue statement of a material fact contained or alleged to be contained in the Provided Information or (B) the omission or alleged omission to
        state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, by
        way of clarification, that clause (B) shall be construed solely by reference to the related Provided Information and not to any other information communicated in connection with a sale or purchase of securities, without regard to whether the
        Provided Information or any portion thereof is presented together with or separately from such other information; or

     

    
      40

      
        

    

    (ii)          with respect to the Indenture Trustee, any failure by the Indenture Trustee to deliver any Servicing Criteria Assessment when and as required under this
        Article and with respect to the Servicer, any failure by the Servicer to deliver any information, report, certification, accountant’s letter or other material when and as required under Section 3.11 or 3.12 or this Article, as applicable.

     

    (b)          In the case of any failure of performance described in Section 9.08(a)(ii), each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall promptly reimburse the Depositor for all
        costs reasonably incurred by each such party in order to obtain the information, report, certification, accountants’ letter or other material not delivered as required by the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable.

     

    (c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages of any
        kind whatsoever, including lost profits, even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

    Section 10.01.  Amendment.

     

    (a)          This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties hereto without the consent of any Securityholder to cure any ambiguity or mistake, to correct or supplement
        any provision in this Agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in this Agreement or the Prospectus or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement; provided,
        however, that no such amendment (i) may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder and (ii) will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor and the Trustees to the effect that such amendment will not
        cause the Issuer to be characterized for United States federal income tax purposes as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or cause the Notes to be characterized other than as indebtedness for United States federal
        income tax purposes.  Any amendment which affects the Owner Trustee, however, shall require the Owner Trustee’s written consent.

     

    
      41

      
        

    

    (b)          This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties hereto, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of Notes evidencing at least 662⁄3% of
        the Note Balance of the Notes (or if the Notes are no longer Outstanding, Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests), 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 Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment (i) will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor and the Trustees to the effect that such amendment will not cause the Issuer to be characterized for United States federal income tax purposes as an
        association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or cause the Notes to be characterized other than as indebtedness for United States federal income tax purposes and (ii) may (A) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or

        the Reserve Fund Required Amount without the consent of 100% of the Holders of Notes then Outstanding or (B) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance of the Notes, or of the Certificate Percentage Interest, the consent of the Noteholders or the
        Certificateholders, respectively, of which is required for any amendment to this Agreement without the consent of 100% of the Holders of the Notes then Outstanding or of the Certificates, respectively.  Any amendment which affects the Owner
        Trustee, however, shall require the Owner Trustee’s written consent.

     

    (c)          An amendment to this Agreement shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder if (i) the Person requesting such amendment obtains and
        delivers to the Trustees an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer to that effect and (ii) the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such action.

     

    (d)          Prior to the execution of any amendment pursuant to this Section, the Servicer shall provide written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Rating Agency.

     

    (e)          Promptly after the execution of any amendment pursuant to Section 10.01(b), the Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or
        consent to each Certificateholder.  It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Noteholders pursuant to Section 10.01(b) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
        substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of the Noteholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable
        requirements as the Trustees may prescribe.

     

    (f)          Prior to the execution of any amendment pursuant to this Section, the Depositor and the Trustees shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating
        that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement to the execution of such amendment have been complied with in all material respects.  The Owner
        Trustee or the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects its rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement.

     

    (g)          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, in the event the parties to this Agreement desire to further clarify or amend any provision of Article Nine, or
        subject to Section 9.05(a), the information contained in Schedule C, this Agreement shall be amended to reflect the new agreement between the parties covering matters in Article Nine, pursuant to Section 9.01, or Schedule C; provided, however, that
        (i) such amendment will not require any Opinion of Counsel or the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to such amendment, (ii) an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer that such amendment is in accordance with the terms of this
        agreement shall be provided to the Indenture Trustee and (iii) the Servicer shall have given written notice to the Rating Agencies not fewer than ten days prior to the effectiveness of any such amendment.

    Section 10.02.  Protection of Title to Issuer.

     

    (a)          The Depositor or the Servicer, or both, shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation statements, all in such
        manner and in such places as may be required by Applicable Law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the Issuer and of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders in the Receivables and in the proceeds thereof.  The
        Depositor or the Servicer, or both, shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Trustees 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 shall change its name, identity or organizational structure in any manner that would make any financing statement or continuation
        statement filed in accordance with Section 10.02(a) seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9‐506 of the UCC, unless it shall have given the Trustees at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have promptly filed such
        amendments to previously filed financing statements or continuation statements or such new financing statements as may be necessary to continue the perfection of the interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
        Noteholders in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof.

     

    (c)          Each of the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer shall give the Trustees at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any change in its name, identity, organizational
        structure or jurisdiction of organization or any relocation of its principal place of business or chief executive office if, as a result of such change or relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment to
        any previously filed financing statement or continuation statement or of any new financing statement and shall promptly file any such amendment, continuation statement or new financing statement.  The Depositor shall at all times maintain its
        jurisdiction of organization, its principal place of business and its chief executive office within the United States.  The Servicer shall at all times maintain each office from which it shall service Receivables, and each office at which the
        Receivable Files are located, within the United States.

     

    (d)          The Servicer shall maintain accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at any time the status
        of 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 shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of transfer of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer’s
        master computer records (including any back-up archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly and unambiguously the interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Issuer and
        has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.  Indication of the Issuer’s and the Indenture Trustee’s interest in a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on the Servicer’s computer systems when, and only when, such
        Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer.

     

    
      43

      
        

    

    (f)          If at any time the Depositor or the Servicer shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle installment sales
        or installment loans contract to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Servicer shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, CDs, records or printouts (including any restored from back-up
        archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly and unambiguously that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Issuer and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee (unless such
        Receivable has been paid in full or repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer).

     

    (g)          The Servicer shall permit the Trustees and their respective agents at any time during normal business hours, upon reasonable prior notice, to inspect, audit and make copies
        of and abstracts from the Servicer’s records regarding any Receivable.

     

    (h)          If the Seller has repurchased one or more Receivables from the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.05 or the Servicer has purchased one or more Receivables from the Issuer
        pursuant to Section 3.08, the Servicer shall, upon request, furnish to the Owner Trustee or to the Indenture Trustee, within ten Business Days, a list of all Receivables (by contract number) then held as part of the Issuer, together with a
        reconciliation of such list to the Schedule of Receivables (as amended or supplemented to date) and to each of the Investor Reports furnished before such request indicating removal of Receivables from the Issuer.

     

    (i)          The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees,
        promptly after the authorization and delivery of each amendment to any financing statement delivered pursuant to this Agreement, an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, either (A) all financing statements and
        continuation statements have been authorized and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Depositor (in the case of an opinion delivered by the Servicer) or the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (in the case of an
        opinion delivered by the Depositor) 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 shall be necessary to preserve and protect such
        interest.

     

    (j)          The Depositor shall, to the extent required by Applicable Law, cause the Notes to be registered with the Commission pursuant to Section 12(b) or Section 12(g) of the

    EXHIBIT A

     

    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AS TO THE RECEIVABLES

     

    The following representations and warranties shall be made in respect of the Receivables being transferred to the Issuer on the Closing Date as of the Cutoff Date.

     

    (i)          Characteristics of Receivables.  Each Receivable (a) was originated in the United States by the Seller or a Dealer located in the United States for the retail sale of a Financed Vehicle in the
      ordinary course of the Seller’s or the applicable Dealer’s business in accordance with the Seller’s credit policies as of the date of origination or acquisition of the related Receivable, is payable in United States dollars, has been fully and
      properly executed by the parties thereto, if not originated by the Seller, has been purchased by the Seller from such Dealer under an existing Dealer Agreement (or approved form of assignment) and has been validly assigned by such Dealer to the
      Seller, (b) has created a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of the Seller in the Financed Vehicle, which security interest shall be perfected and prior to any other interest in such Financed Vehicle, and
      which security interest is assignable by the Seller and reassignable by the assignee, (c) contains customary and enforceable provisions such that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for realization against the collateral of the
      benefits of the security, (d) shall, except as otherwise provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, provide for level Monthly Payments (provided that the payment in the first or last month in the life of the Receivable may be minimally different
      from the level payment) that fully amortize the Amount Financed over its original term and shall provide for a finance charge or shall yield interest at its APR, (e) shall provide for, in the event that such Receivable is prepaid, a payoff amount
      that fully pays the Principal Balance and includes accrued but unpaid interest at least through the date prior to the date of prepayment in an amount calculated by using an interest rate at least equal to its APR, (f) is a Simple Interest Receivable,
      (g) is due from an Obligor with a mailing address within the United States or its territories, and (h)  to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, is not assumable by another Person in a manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s
      obligations to the Seller with respect to such Receivable.

     

    (ii)         Compliance with Law.  Each Receivable complied at the time it was originated or made, and at the Cutoff Date complies, in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, State and,
      to the best knowledge of the Seller, local laws, rulings and regulations thereunder (including usury laws).

     

    (iii)        Binding Obligation.  Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the related Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its
      terms, except as (a) enforceability thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or 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 and (b) such Receivable may be modified by the application after the Cutoff Date of the Servicemembers’ Civil Relief Act or by any similar
      applicable State law.

     

    
      A-1

      
        

    

    (iv)         No Government Obligor.  No Receivable is due from the United States or any State or any agency, department, subdivision or instrumentality thereof.

     

    (v)          Obligor Bankruptcy.  To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, at the Cutoff Date, no Obligor is the subject of a bankruptcy Proceeding.

     

    (vi)         Security Interest in Financed Vehicles.  Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables by the Seller to the Depositor, each Receivable was secured by a valid, binding and enforceable first
      priority perfected security interest in favor of the Seller in the related Financed Vehicle or all necessary action with respect to such Receivable has been taken to perfect a first priority security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor
      of the Seller, which security interest has been validly assigned by the Seller to the Depositor.  The Servicer has received, or will receive within 180 days after the Closing Date, the original certificate of title for each Financed Vehicle or notice
      from the applicable State entity issuing such certificate of title, that such certificate of title is being processed (other than any Financed Vehicle that is subject to a certificate of title statute or motor vehicle registration law that does not
      require that the original certificate of title for such Financed Vehicle be delivered to the Seller).

     

    (vii)       Receivables in Force.  No Receivable shall have been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor shall any Financed Vehicle have been released in whole or in part from the Lien granted by the related
      Receivable.

     

    (viii)      No Waivers.  No provision of a Receivable shall have been waived in such a manner that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with
      respect thereto.

     

    (ix)         No Amendments.  No Receivable shall have been amended or modified in such a manner that the total number of Monthly Payments has been increased or decreased or that the related Amount Financed has
      been increased or decreased or that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

     

    (x)         No Defenses.  No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the operation of any of the terms of any Receivable, or the
      exercise of any right thereunder, will not render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the Seller has not received written notice
      of the assertion with respect to any Receivable of any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense.

     

    (xi)        No Liens.  No Liens or claims have been filed, including Liens for work, labor or materials or for unpaid local, State or federal taxes relating to any Financed Vehicle that shall be prior to, or
      equal or coordinate with, the security interest in such Financed Vehicle granted by the related Receivable.

     

    (xii)       No Defaults; Repossessions.  Except for payment defaults that, as of the Cutoff Date, have been continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, no default, breach, violation or event under the terms
      of any Receivable, permitting acceleration, shall have occurred as of the Cutoff Date and no continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event under the terms of any Receivable,
      permitting acceleration, shall have arisen; and the Seller shall not have waived any of the foregoing except as otherwise permitted hereunder.  On or prior to the Cutoff Date, no Financed Vehicle has been repossessed.

     

    
      A-2

      
        

    

    (xiii)       Insurance.  Each Receivable requires the related Obligor to obtain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle and to maintain such insurance.

     

    (xiv)       Title.  It is the intention of the Seller that the transfers and assignments contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Purchaser
      and that the beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not be part of the debtor’s estate in the event of the appointment of a receiver or conservator for the Seller under any receivership, bankruptcy law, insolvency or banking law; no
      Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Seller to any Person other than the Purchaser; immediately prior to the transfer and assignment contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller had good and marketable
      title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens and rights of others, except for Liens that shall be released on or before the Closing Date; immediately upon the transfer and assignment thereof, the Purchaser shall have good and marketable title
      to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens and rights of others; and the transfer and assignment herein contemplated has been perfected under the UCC.

     

    (xv)        Lawful Assignment.  No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under the
      Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the pledge of such Receivables hereunder, thereunder or under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a
      result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge.  The Seller has not entered into any agreement with any account debtor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the Receivables.

     

    (xvi)       One Original/Authoritative Copy.  For each Receivable that constitutes “tangible chattel paper,” if in tangible form, there is only one original executed copy of such Receivable and, for each
      Receivable that constitutes “electronic chattel paper,” if in electronic form, such Receivable is evidenced by the authoritative copy thereof.

     

    (xvii)      Principal Balance.  As of the Cutoff Date, each Receivable had a remaining Principal Balance of not more than $220,000.00 and not less than $2,000.00.

     

    (xviii)    Original Term to Maturity.  Each Receivable had an original term to maturity (based on the original number of Monthly Payments) of not more than 72 months and not less than 12 months and a remaining
      term to maturity (based on the number of remaining Monthly Payments) as of the Cutoff Date of not more than 71 months and not less than 3 months.

     

    (xix)       Annual Percentage Rate.  Each Receivable has an APR of at least 0.00% and not more than 12.00%.

     

    
      A-3

      
        

    

    (xx)        Marking Records.  As of the Closing Date, the Seller will have caused its computer and accounting records relating to each Receivable to be marked to show that the Receivables have been sold to the
      Purchaser by the Seller and transferred and assigned by the Purchaser to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

     

    (xxi)       Chattel Paper.  Each Receivable constitutes “tangible chattel paper” or “electronic chattel paper” within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of origination.

     

    (xxii)      Final Scheduled Payment Date.  No Receivable has a final scheduled payment date later than six months prior to the Class A‐4 Final Scheduled Payment Date.

     

    (xxiii)    No Fraud or Misrepresentation.  Each Receivable that was originated by a Dealer and was sold by the Dealer to the Seller, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, was so originated and sold without fraud
      or misrepresentation on the part of such Dealer in either case.

     

    (xxiv)    No Impairment.  The Seller has not done anything to convey any right to any Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments due under a Receivable or otherwise to impair the rights of
      the Depositor in any Receivable or the proceeds thereof.

     

    (xxv)     Servicing.  Each Receivable has been serviced in conformity with all Applicable Laws, rules and regulation and in conformity with the Seller’s policies and procedures which are consistent with
      customary, prudent industry standards.

     

    (xxvi)     No Consent.  To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, no notice to or consent from any Obligor is necessary to effect the acquisition of the Receivables by the Purchaser or the Issuer or the pledge of
      the Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee.
