(g) AFL shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ARFC, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust and the Noteholders from and against any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the violation by AFL of federal or state securities laws in connection with the registration or the sale of the Notes.

(i) AFL shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ARFC from and against all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages, and liabilities arising out of or incurred in connection with the acceptance or performance of AFL's trusts and duties as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage, or liability shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence (except for errors in judgment) of ARFC. - 10 - 14 (j) AFL shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ARFC, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust and the Noteholders from and against any loss, liability or expense imposed upon, or incurred by, ARFC, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, the Trust and the Noteholders as a result of AFL's or ARFC's use of the name "Arcadia." Indemnification under this Section 4.4 shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation and shall survive termination of the Trust.

Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, AFL shall, unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects, repurchase such Receivable from the Trust and, on or before the related Draw Date, AFL shall pay the Purchase Amount to the Trust pursuant to Section 4.5 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. It is understood and agreed that, except as set forth in Section 6.1, the obligation of AFL to repurchase any Receivable as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against AFL for such breach available to ARFC, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders. The provisions of this Section 5.1 are intended to grant the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee a direct right against AFL to demand performance hereunder, and in connection therewith, AFL waives any requirement of prior demand against ARFC with respect to such repurchase obligation. Any such purchase shall take place in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of AFL under this Section shall not terminate upon a termination of AFL as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and shall be performed in accordance with the terms hereof notwithstanding the failure of the Servicer or ARFC to perform any of their respective obligations with respect to such Receivable under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. SECTION 5.2. Reassignment of Purchased Receivables. Upon deposit in the Collection Account of the Purchase Amount of any Receivable repurchased by AFL under Section 5.1, ARFC and the Owner Trustee shall take such steps as may be reasonably requested by AFL in order to assign to AFL all of ARFC's and the Trust's right, title and interest in and to such Receivable and all security and documents and all Other Conveyed Property conveyed to ARFC and the Trust directly relating thereto, without recourse, representation or warranty, except as to the absence of liens, charges or encumbrances created by or arising as a result of actions of ARFC or the Owner Trustee. Such assignment shall be a sale and assignment outright, and not for security. If, following the reassignment of a Purchased Receivable, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding, it is held that AFL may not enforce any such Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, ARFC and the Owner Trustee shall, at the expense of AFL, take such steps as AFL deems reasonably necessary to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in ARFC's or the Owner Trustee's name. - 11 - 15 SECTION 5.3. Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of ARFC, or the Owner Trustee as assignee of ARFC, in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. ARTICLE VI MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 6.1. Liability of AFL. AFL shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically undertaken by AFL and the representations and warranties of AFL. SECTION 6.2. Merger or Consolidation of AFL or ARFC.

Receivable Not Assumable. No Receivable is assumable by another Person in a manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor's obligations to AFL with respect to such Receivable. 22.

There has been no default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable (other than payment delinquencies of not more than 30 days), and no condition exists or event has occurred and is continuing that with notice, the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable, and there has been no waiver of any of the foregoing.
