A copy of any service of process served on the Transferor or BVAC hereunder shall also be sent to the Indenture Trustee and the parties to receive notices on behalf of the Transferor or BVAC, as the case may be, under Section 17.05 hereof of this Agreement. ARTICLE VII THE RECEIVABLES SECTION 7.01 Representations and Warranties of Transferor. (a) Pursuant to Article III, the Transferor has assigned to the Trust the benefit of, and its rights respecting, the representations and warranties made to the Transferor in the Purchase Agreement as to the Receivables on which the Trust relies in accepting the Receivables in trust and executing and authenticating the Notes and executing and delivering the Indenture. The Transferor agrees that the representations shall also be for the benefit of the Secured Parties to the same extent as if each of such representations and warranties were fully set forth herein, including, without limitation, the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 of the Purchase Agreement. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of the Purchase 25 Agreement but shall survive the sale, transfer, and assignment of the Receivables to the Trust and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee. (b) The Transferor hereby represents and warrants to the Trust that it has entered into the Purchase Agreement with BVAC, that BVAC has made the representations and warranties set forth therein, that such representations and warranties run to and are for the benefit of the Transferor, and that pursuant to Article III of this Agreement, the Transferor has transferred and assigned to the Trust all rights of the Transferor to cause BVAC under the Purchase Agreement to repurchase Receivables in the event of a breach of such representations and warranties. (c) The foregoing provisions of this Section 7.01 are intended to grant the Trust and its assignees a direct right against BVAC to demand performance of its obligations under the Purchase Agreement. (d) It is the intention of the Transferor that the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, taken as a whole, constitute a sale of the Receivables and the other Trust Property from the Transferor to the Trust and that the Receivables and the other Trust Property not be part of the bankruptcy estate in the event of the bankruptcy of the Transferor. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction were to conclude that the transfer of Receivables or the other Trust Property constitutes a grant of a security interest rather than a sale of the Receivables, the other Trust Property and the proceeds thereof, this Agreement and the transactions provided for herein shall be deemed to constitute a grant by the Transferor to the Trust of a valid continuing first priority security interest in the Receivables, the other Trust Property and the proceeds thereof. No Receivable or other item of Trust Property has been sold, transferred, assigned, or pledged by the Transferor to any Person other than the Trust. Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, the Transferor had good and marketable title to each Receivable and the other Trust Property, free and clear of all Liens, and, immediately upon the transfer thereof, the Trust (for the benefit of the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and the Secured Parties pursuant to the Indenture) shall have good and marketable title to each Receivable and the other Trust Property, free and clear of all Liens and rights of others, except for the rights of the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and the Noteholders; and the transfer has been perfected under the UCC. On or prior to the Closing Date, all filings (including, without limitation UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Trust and its assignees a first priority perfected ownership interest in the Receivables and the other Trust Property shall have been made. (e) In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction were to conclude that the transfer of Receivables or the other Trust Property constitutes a grant of a security interest rather than a sale of the Receivables, the Transferor represents and warrants that 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 as against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferor. The Transferor has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against each Obligor in the property securing the Receivables. The Receivables 26 constitute "tangible chattel paper" within the meaning of the applicable UCC. The Transferor owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person. All original executed copies of each written agreement that constitute or evidence the Receivables will be delivered to the Custodian on or prior to the Closing Date. The Transferor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Transferor that includes a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement (i) relating to the security interest granted to the Issuer under this Indenture or (ii) that has been terminated. None of the documents 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 to the Issuer, for the benefit of the Noteholders, other than certain Receivables that will be re-marked within seven (7) Business Days of the Closing Date to reflect the interests of the Issuer under this Indenture. The representations and warranties contained in this Section 7.01(e) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Indenture. Compliance with the representations and warranties contained in this Section 7.01(e) may not be waived without the consent of Standard & Poor's. SECTION 7.02 Repurchase Upon Breach. Each party hereto shall inform the other parties hereto promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.02 of the Purchase Agreement and assigned to the Trust hereunder or upon the discovery that any Receivable has been materially and adversely affected because a court has determined that a Receivable is not perfected by a first priority perfected security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Indenture Trustee. Unless the breach or failure to perfect shall have been cured by the last day of the first full Collection Period, following the discovery, the Transferor shall cause BVAC, pursuant to its obligations under the Purchase Agreement to repurchase any such Receivable if such Receivable or the interest therein of the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders is materially and adversely affected by any such breach or failure to perfect as of the last day of the first full Collection Period. In consideration of the purchase of the Receivable, BVAC shall remit the Purchase Amount, in the manner specified in Section 9.04 hereof. As required under Section 3.03 of the Purchase Agreement, the Transferor shall cause the Seller (as defined therein) to indemnify the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Back-up Servicer, the Servicer, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and their respective officers, directors and employees against all reasonable costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them, as a result of claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to such repurchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BVAC shall not be required to remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in this Section 7.02 with respect to any Receivable repurchased or subject to repurchase by BVAC pursuant to Section 8.08 for the reasons specified in Section 8.08. In no event shall BVAC's repurchase obligation pursuant to this Section 7.02 apply to the Back-up Servicer whether acting as successor Servicer or otherwise. SECTION 7.03 Custody of Receivable Files. To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Trust, upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby revocably appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby 27 accepts such appointment, for the benefit of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, to act as the agent of the Trust as custodian thereof in accordance with the Custodian Agreement. SECTION 7.04 Duties of Servicer as Custodian on behalf of the Trust. (a) Safekeeping. In accordance with the Custodian Agreement, the Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, shall segregate and hold the Receivable Files on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, and for the Trust pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof and shall maintain such accurate and complete accounts, records, and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Trust to comply with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party. In performing its duties as custodian pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof, the Servicer shall act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to the Receivable Files relating to all comparable automobile receivables that the Servicer services for itself. The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic audits of 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 Trust to verify the accuracy of the Servicer's record keeping. The Servicer shall promptly report to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and maintain its accounts, records, and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. (b) Maintenance of and Access to Records. The Servicer shall maintain each Receivable File at its office specified in Schedule B to this Agreement, or at such other office as shall be specified to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by prior written notice and which office shall not be reasonably objectionable to either the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee. The Servicer shall make available to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and their 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 as the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, shall instruct. (c) Custodian Agreement. To the extent that there is a conflict between this Agreement and the Custodian Agreement with respect to the duties and obligations of the Custodian, the terms of the Custodian Agreement shall control. (d) Back-up Servicer as Custodian. The Back-up Servicer shall only act as Custodian if it is simultaneously acting as successor Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. The predecessor Custodian shall promptly deliver all of the Receivables Files to the successor Custodian and reasonably cooperate with the successor Custodian in organizing and identifying the Receivables Files. The Back-up Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its duties as Custodian pursuant to this Section 7.04 in accordance with the provision of Section 8.05 of the Indenture. SECTION 7.05 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 28 instructions signed by a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust or a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee as set forth in the Custodian Agreement. ARTICLE VIII ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES SECTION 8.01 Duties of Servicer. (a) The Servicer (and any successor Servicer) is hereby appointed by the Trust and authorized to act as agent for the Trust and, for the benefit of the Trust and the Secured Parties, shall manage, service, administer, and make collections on the Receivables and perform the other actions required by the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer agrees that its servicing of the Receivables will be carried out with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that servicers in the retail automotive financing industry customarily exercise with respect to all comparable receivables that they service for themselves or others and, to the extent more exacting, that the Servicer (or successor Servicer) exercises with respect to all comparable automobile receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer's duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, making Advances in accordance with the terms hereof, responding to inquiries of Obligors or of federal, State or local governmental authorities with respect to the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending monthly billing statements to Obligors (except to the extent any such Obligor has received a coupon book to use in paying such monthly remittances), accounting for collections, and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions. The Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, and procedures in performing its duties as Servicer; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not materially change its servicing standards and procedures in any manner that could reasonably be expected to be adverse to the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders without the prior written consent of the Majority Controlling Noteholders and the Majority Certificateholders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Trust to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or to the Financed Vehicles securing such Receivables; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount under any Receivable or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of any Receivable from the Obligor, except (i) pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) in accordance with its customary procedures or (iii) in accordance with Section 8.05 hereof. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable or a Charged-Off Receivable, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely 29 for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, the Trust and Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. The Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall execute any documents prepared by the Servicer and delivered to the Trust for execution that are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer is also authorized and empowered to direct the Trust to sell Receivables to unaffiliated third parties pursuant to Section 8.05(a) hereof in exchange for payment of the related Sale Amount and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Trust to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of transfer with respect to such sale (b) The Servicer, or a third party retained by Servicer (if BVAC is acting as the Servicer, at its expense, otherwise at the expense of the Trust), shall obtain on behalf of the Trust all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by the Trust 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 hereof. (c) The Servicer shall furnish to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Collateral Agent from time to time such additional information regarding the Trust or the Basic Documents as the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. SECTION 8.02 [Reserved] SECTION 8.03 The Back-up Servicer. (a) Prior to the Back-up Servicer acting as successor Servicer hereunder, the Back-up Servicer shall only be responsible to perform those duties specifically imposed upon it as Back-up Servicer by the provisions hereof, and shall have no obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party, including but not limited to any other Basic Document to which it is not a party. (b) Subject to the Back-up Servicer's obligations pursuant to this Section 8.03, prior to the Back-up Servicer acting as successor Servicer hereunder, the Back-up Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the repayment of such funds or adequate written indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it in writing prior to the expenditure or risk of such funds or incurrence of financial liability. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Back-up Servicer, in its capacity as such, and not in its capacity as successor Servicer, shall not be liable for any obligation of the Servicer contained in this Agreement so long as the Back-up Servicer is performing in its capacity as Back-up Servicer, and the parties shall look only to the Servicer to perform such obligations. (c) The Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, 30 order, approval or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. (d) The Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) may consult with counsel and the advice or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with any such written counsel, a copy of which has been furnished to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee. (e) The Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document. (f) The Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with due care, and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed. (g) The Servicer shall have no liability, direct or indirect, to any party, for the acts or omissions of the Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) whenever such acts or omissions occur or whenever such liability is imposed. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Majority Controlling Noteholders shall have the right, with or without cause, to remove the Back-up Servicer, in its capacity as Back-up Servicer, in its sole discretion and replace the Back-up Servicer upon seven (7) days prior written notice. In the event that the Majority Controlling Noteholders exercises its right to remove and replace the Back-up Servicer, such Person shall have no further obligation to perform the duties of the Back-up Servicer under this Agreement except as set forth in Section 13.02 hereof. (i) On or before the fifth Business Day of each month, the Servicer will deliver to the Back-up Servicer a Computer Tape containing such information with respect to the Receivables as of the close of business on the last day of the immediately preceding Collection Period as is necessary for preparation of the Servicer's Certificate. The Back-up Servicer shall use the Computer Tape to recalculate the information specified in Sections 8.03(j)(ii) and (iii) hereof contained in the Servicer's Certificate delivered by the Servicer, and the Back-up Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee that it has recalculated such information in the Servicer's Certificate in accordance with this Section 8.03 and shall notify the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of any discrepancies, in each case, on or before the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date but in no event fewer than five (5) Business Days after receiving the information required to make such calculations. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto. In the event that the Back-up Servicer reports any discrepancies, the Servicer and the Back-up Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancies prior to the related Payment Date, but in the 31 absence of a reconciliation, the Servicer's Certificate shall control for the purpose of calculations and payments with respect to the related Payment Date. In the event that the Back-up Servicer and the Servicer are unable to reconcile discrepancies with respect to a Servicer's Certificate by the related Payment Date, (i) the Back-up Servicer will notify the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, and (ii) the Servicer shall cause a firm of Independent certified public accountants, at the Servicer's expense, to audit the Servicer's Certificate and, prior to the fifth calendar day of the following month, reconcile the discrepancies. The effect, if any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected in the Servicer's Certificate for such next succeeding Determination Date. All Computer Tapes received by the Back-up Servicer will be stored by the Back-up Servicer in accordance with its customary practices. (j) The Back-up Servicer shall review each Servicer's Certificate delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.12 and shall, based upon the information provided from the Servicer under Section 8.03(i): (i) confirm that such Servicer's Certificate is complete on its face; (ii) load the Computer Tape received from the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.03(i) hereof, confirm that such Computer Tape is in a readable form, and calculate the Principal Balance of the Receivables based on the aggregate Principal Balance of the Receivables as of the preceding Payment Date (as set forth in such Servicer's Certificate) and the principal portion of the Scheduled Receivable Payment or Modified Scheduled Receivable Payment for the Receivables (as set forth in such Servicer's Certificate) and compare such calculation to that set forth in the Servicer's Certificate (and give notice of any discrepancy to the Indenture Trustee); and (iii) recalculate the Available Funds, the Class A-1 Monthly Interest, the Class A-2 Monthly Interest, the Class A-3 Monthly Interest, the Class A-4 Monthly Interest, the Class B Monthly Interest, the Class C Monthly Interest, the Class D Monthly Interest, the Certificate Monthly Interest, the Monthly Principal, the Certificate Monthly Principal, the Servicing Fee, the Back-up Servicer Fee, the Indenture Trustee Fee, the Owner Trustee Fee, the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Collection Account, based solely on the balances and calculations specifically set forth in the Servicer's Certificate, and compare such recalculations to those set forth in the Servicer's Certificate. To the extent of any discrepancy, the Back-up Servicer shall give notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee. The Back-up Servicer's obligation shall be limited to the mathematical recalculation of the amounts set forth in Sections 8.03(j)(ii) and (iii) based on the Servicer's Certificate and Computer Tape. SECTION 8.04 Retention and Termination of Servicer. The Servicer hereby covenants and agrees to act as servicer under this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Trust and (ii) the removal of the Servicer, as servicer, in accordance with Article 14 hereof in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default or Back-up Servicer Default, as applicable, which has not otherwise been waived or cured. 32 SECTION 8.05 Collection of Receivable Payments. (a) Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to maximize the amount to be received by the Trust with respect to the Receivables, including, without limitation, using reasonable efforts to (i) collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to all comparable automobile receivables that it services for itself and, in any event, with no less degree of skill and care than would be exercised by a prudent servicer of similar motor vehicle retail installment sales contracts and installment sale loan and security agreements or (ii) directing the Trust to sell any of the Receivables from time to time to an unrelated third party for the maximum market price available for such Receivable at such time, as determined by the Servicer consistent with the standards set forth herein. In connection with any such Receivable sale contemplated by clause (ii) of this Section 8.05(a), the related Sale Amount shall be deposited into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 9.04(e). Promptly after the Closing Date (but in any event within forty (40) days after the Closing Date), the Servicer will provide each Obligor with a monthly statement in order to notify such Obligors to make payments directly to the Lock-Box. If payments are modified or adjusted on a Receivable (provided that no such modification or adjustment may be made to the APR or the number or amounts of the Scheduled Receivable Payments) or are extended in the ordinary course of the Servicer's collection procedures (provided, that no extensions may be granted by the Servicer until at least six Scheduled Receivable Payments have been received by the Servicer under the related Receivable and thereafter only one extension not to exceed one month may be granted each twelve month period and no more than three (3) extensions shall be permitted with respect to any Receivable (other than to the extent allowed pursuant to the Servicer's collection or charge-off policies); provided, that not more than 0.75% (by Principal Balance of the Receivables as a percentage of the Pool Balance) may be extended during any Collection Period), and, as a result, any Receivable would be outstanding after the month immediately preceding the Final Maturity Date for the Class D Notes or any such modification, adjustment or extension is in violation of the foregoing prohibitions, then the Servicer shall be obligated to purchase such Receivable pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof (unless such Receivable is otherwise being purchased pursuant to Section 16.02 hereof). The Servicer may in its discretion waive any late payment charge or any other fees that it is entitled to retain under Section 8.11 hereof, or other fee (to the extent consistent with its credit and collection policy) that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. (b) All allocations of payments with respect to any Receivable to principal and interest and determinations of periodic charges and the like shall be made using the simple interest method, based on either the actual number of days elapsed and the actual number of days in the calendar year or on a 365-day calendar year, as specified in the related installment sales contract or installment loan and security agreement. Each payment on a Receivable shall be applied (i) first, in connection with the redemption of a Charged-off Receivable, to reimburse the Servicer for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with such Receivable, (ii) second, to late charges and other fees, (iii) third, to the extent necessary to bring such Receivable 33 current, to interest in accordance with the simple interest method and (iv) fourth, to principal in accordance with the simple interest method; provided, however, at the Servicer's option and sole discretion, it may allocate payments first to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 8.05(b), respectively, and then to clauses (i) and/or (ii) of this Section 8.05(b) thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no allocation pursuant to this Section 8.05(b) shall in any way alter or modify the payment priorities and rights and restrictions on Servicer reimbursement and compensation set forth in the Indenture. SECTION 8.06 Realization Upon Receivables. (a) On behalf of the Trust and the Secured Parties the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts, consistent with its customary servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the Financed Vehicle securing any Receivable as to which the Servicer shall have determined that eventual payment in full is unlikely and which Receivable is not sold pursuant to Section 8.05(a) hereof. The Servicer shall follow such customary and usual practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of automobile receivables, which may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any recourse to Dealers (provided, that if the Back-up Servicer is performing the duties of Servicer hereunder, BVAC agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Person in realizing upon such Dealer recourse, it being understood and agreed that the Back-up Servicer in such capacity shall not have any obligation to pursue such remedies) and selling the Financed Vehicle at public or private sale and directing the Trust to sell the Receivables pursuant to Section 8.05(a) hereof. The foregoing shall be subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds of the related Receivable by an amount equal to or greater than the amount of such expenses. After appropriate disposition of the Financed Vehicle, the Servicer shall also take such measures as it deems reasonable and appropriate to realize value in respect of any deficiency balance of the Receivable including pursuit of action on behalf of the Trust and/or the Secured Parties against the Obligor or public or private sale of the remaining interest of the Trust and/or the Secured Parties in such Receivable. If the Back-up Servicer is the successor Servicer, it shall be reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Section 8.06(a) and shall not be responsible for expenses incurred in connection with such powers of attorney necessary to satisfy its administrative and servicing duties hereunder. (b) BVAC, as initial Servicer, agrees that within 45 days from the Closing Date, it shall make such filings and effect such notices as are necessary under Sections 9-310, 9-324(b) and 9-324(c) of the New York UCC (or comparable section of the UCC of any applicable State) to preserve the Trust's ownership interest (or security interest, as the case may be) and the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in any repossessed Financed Vehicles delivered for sale to Dealers in excess of the limits set forth in Section 8.06(c). 34 (c) The Servicer agrees that at any time after the Closing Date there will be (i) no more than 10 repossessed Financed Vehicles in the aggregate delivered for sale to any Dealer and (ii) no more than 35 repossessed Financed Vehicles in the aggregate delivered for the sale to all Dealers with respect to which the actions referred to in paragraph (b) above have not been effected. The Servicer agrees that prior to delivering additional Financed Vehicles for sale to any such Dealer in excess of the limits set forth in (i) and (ii) above, it shall make such filings and effect such notices as are necessary under Sections 9-310, 9-324(b) and 9-324(c) of the New York UCC (or comparable section of the applicable UCC) to preserve its ownership interest (or security interest, as the case may be) in any such repossessed Financed Vehicle. (d) Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, the Servicer shall either use its reasonable best efforts to liquidate or, at its sole option, purchase each Financed Vehicle that has not previously been liquidated and that secures, or previously secured, a Charged-Off Receivable either (i) by the end of the Collection Period preceding the Final Maturity Date for the Class D Notes or (ii) if earlier, by the end of the Collection Period following the Collection Period during which such Receivable became a Charged-Off Receivable. Any purchase of a Financed Vehicle by the Servicer shall be made at a price equal to the fair market value of the Financed Vehicle as determined by the Servicer in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing standards. This purchase obligation shall not apply to any successor Servicer. SECTION 8.07 Physical Damage Insurance. (a) The Servicer, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures and underwriting standards, shall require that (i) each Obligor shall have obtained insurance covering the Financed Vehicle as of the date of execution of the Receivable insuring against loss and damage due to fire, theft, transportation, collision and other risks generally covered by comprehensive and collision coverage, (ii) each Receivable that finances the cost of premiums for credit life and credit accident and health insurance is covered by an Insurance Policy or certificate naming BVAC, the Bank or the successor-in-interest to the Bank, as policyholder (creditor) or loss payee and (iii) as to each Receivable that finances the cost of an extended service contract, the respective Financed Vehicle which secures the Receivable is covered by such extended service contract; provided that the Back-up Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall have no liability for any such failure. (b) To the extent applicable, the Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under the insurance policy referred to in Section 8.07(a) hereof which, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Servicer, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, shall take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any of the foregoing Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any of the foregoing Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9.03 hereof. In no event shall the Servicer be required or forced to place insurance on a Financed Vehicle. 35 SECTION 8.08 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles. (a) The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, take such steps as are necessary to ensure that perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle has been obtained and to maintain such security interest. The Trust hereby authorizes the Servicer to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Trust in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer or any successor Servicer in connection with any such re-perfection shall be reimbursable in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.05 of the Indenture. (b) (i) In accordance with the Custodian Agreement, by the third Business Day following the date which is 180 days following the Closing Date or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the "180 day notice date"), BVAC, as the Custodian, shall inform the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the other parties to this Agreement of any Receivable listed on the exception list attached to the Certification pursuant to Section 4 of the Custodian Agreement, as certified by the Custodian on the Closing Date, for which the related Receivable File on the 180 day notice date does not include a Certificate of Title (as defined in the Custodian Agreement) (or such evidence of title as may be issued in any applicable jurisdiction as of the close of business on the date which is 180 days after closing). BVAC shall repurchase any such Receivable as of the last day of the Collection Period in which the date, which is 180 days following the Closing Date, occurs (or if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day thereafter), if the related Receivable File does not include a Certificate of Title (as defined in the Custodian Agreement) as of the close of business on such 180th day (or such evidence of title as may be issued in any applicable jurisdiction). In consideration of the purchase of such Receivable, BVAC shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 8.10 hereof. (ii) In accordance with the Custodian Agreement, by the third Business Day following the date which is 30 days following the Closing Date or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the "30 day notice date"), BVAC, as the Custodian, shall inform the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the other parties to this Agreement of any Receivable listed on the exception list attached to the Certification pursuant to Section 4 of the Custodian Agreement as certified by the Custodian on the Closing Date, for which a Receivable File is missing a fully executed original of the related retail installment contract or retail installment loan contract, as applicable, which remains uncured by the close of business on the date which is 30 days following the Closing Date. BVAC shall repurchase any such Receivable within two Business Days after the date on which BVAC, as the Custodian, delivers its report pursuant to this Section 8.08(b)(ii). In consideration of the purchase of such Receivable, BVAC shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 8.10 hereof. 36 (c) Upon the occurrence of Servicer Default, the Servicer (or BVAC if it is no longer the Servicer), at the written direction of the Majority Controlling Noteholders, or in the absence of such direction, the Majority Certificateholders shall take or cause to be taken such reasonable action as may, in the reasonable business judgment of the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Majority Certificateholders, be necessary or prudent to perfect or re-perfect the security interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and the Noteholders by amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles or by such other reasonable means as may, in the reasonable business judgment of the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Majority Certificateholders, be necessary or prudent and shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee any Receivable File or portion thereof that has been released by the Indenture Trustee to the Servicer and is then in the possession of the Servicer, including any original certificates of title. The Servicer (so long as the Servicer is BVAC) shall, and if the Servicer has been removed, BVAC shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses related to such perfection or re-perfection (the "Reliening Expenses"). Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Majority Controlling Noteholders, or in the absence of such direction, the Majority Certificateholders may instruct the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer (or BVAC if it is no longer the Servicer) to take or cause to be taken such action as may, in the reasonable business judgment of the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Majority Certificateholders, be necessary to perfect or reperfect the security interest in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer, including by amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles to reflect the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the related Financed Vehicle or by such other reasonable means as may, in the reasonable business judgment of the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Majority Certificateholders, be necessary or prudent; provided, however, that if the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Majority Certificateholders requests that the title documents be so amended prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the out-of-pocket expenses of the Servicer, BVAC or the Indenture Trustee in connection with such action shall be reimbursed to the Servicer, BVAC or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Indenture. The Servicer hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Indenture Trustee acting through its duly appointed officers or any of them, its true and lawful attorney, for it and in its name and on its behalf, for the sole and exclusive purpose of authorizing said attorney to execute and deliver 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 show the Indenture Trustee as lienholder or secured party on the Certificate of Title (as defined in the Custodian Agreement) relating to a Financed Vehicle. BVAC, as initial Servicer, shall cause the successor-in-interest to the Bank to deliver a power of attorney to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the foregoing with respect to any interest of the Bank. SECTION 8.09 Covenants of Servicer. The Servicer hereby makes the following covenants to the other parties hereto on which the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee shall rely in accepting the Receivables in trust. Except for a release to an insurer in exchange for insurance proceeds paid by such insurer resulting from a claim for the total insured value of a vehicle, the Servicer shall not (i) release the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable 37 from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except in the event of payment in full by or on behalf of the Obligor thereunder or repossession, (ii) impair the rights of the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders in the Receivables, (iii) change the Annual Percentage Rate with respect to any Receivable, except as may be required by applicable law and (iv) otherwise modify any contract except as permitted by this Agreement. In addition, the Servicer shall service the Receivables as required by the terms of this Agreement and in material compliance with its current servicing procedures, including its collection policies and charge-off policies (the "Servicer Procedures") for servicing all of its comparable motor vehicle contracts; provided that the Servicer Procedures with respect to the Receivables may not be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time if such amendment, restatement or other modification materially and adversely affects any Noteholder, the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement or the Basic Documents is intended to restrict or otherwise require the Servicer to obtain any consents in order to amend, restate or modify the Servicer Procedures relating to any of its contracts other than the Receivables. No successor Servicer shall incur any liability for the representations, warranties or covenants of any predecessor Servicer hereunder. SECTION 8.10 Purchase of Receivables Upon Breach. The Servicer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall inform each of the other parties promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of (i) any breach by the Servicer of its obligations under Sections 8.01, 8.05, 8.06, 8.07, 8.08 or 8.09 hereof or (ii) the existence of the Servicer's obligation to purchase a Receivable pursuant to Section 8.05(a) hereof; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Servicer hereunder. Unless such breach shall have been cured by the last day of the first full Collection Period following the discovery or notice of such breach, the Servicer shall on such day purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach or which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders (which shall include any Receivable as to which a breach of Section 8.06 hereof has occurred); provided, that with respect to any breach of Section 8.07(b) hereof, the Servicer may at its option, instead of repurchasing the related Receivable, deposit in the Collection Account the amount of the loss resulting from the lapse or lack of insurance. In consideration of the purchase of such Receivable, the Servicer shall remit the Purchase Amount with respect to such Receivable in the manner specified in Section 9.04 hereof. The Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section. The sole remedy of the Owner Trustee, the Trust, or the Secured Parties with respect to the aforementioned breaches shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section 8.10; provided, however, that the Servicer shall indemnify, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders and each of their respective officers, employees, directors, agents and representatives against all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them as a result of third-party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to such breach. No predecessor or successor Servicer shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of any other Servicer. Upon receipt of the Purchase Amount and any related indemnity payments, the Indenture Trustee shall release to the Servicer or its designee the related Receivable File and shall execute and deliver all instruments of transferor assignment, without recourse, as are prepared by the Servicer and delivered to the Indenture Trustee and are 38 necessary to vest in the Servicer or such designee the Issuer's right, title and interest in the Receivable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BVAC shall not be required to remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in this Section 8.10 with respect to any Receivable repurchased or subject to repurchase by BVAC pursuant to Section 8.08 hereof for the reasons specified in Section 8.08 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Back-up Servicer shall have become the Servicer, it will not be so obligated to purchase any Receivables or make any payment pursuant to this Section 8.10, and the only obligations of Back-up Servicer, as successor Servicer in connection therewith shall be to make the indemnity in Section 13.02 hereof. SECTION 8.11 Servicing Fee (a) The Servicer shall be entitled to a Servicing Fee as defined herein. The Servicer shall also be entitled to retain, and need not deposit in the Collection Account, all late fees, and other administrative fees and expenses or similar charges allowed by applicable law with respect to the Receivables, collected (from whatever source) on the Receivables during such Collection Period (the "Supplemental Servicing Fee"). (b) The Back-up Servicer will be entitled to the Back-up Servicer Fee up to but excluding the date on which it is appointed or begins acting as successor Servicer. If it becomes the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer will be entitled to the Servicer Fee (including the Servicing Fee as calculated in Schedule C) for the periods in which it is acting as successor Servicer and shall not be entitled to a Back-up Servicing Fee during such time. (c) Neither the Indenture Trustee nor Back-up Servicer (including in its capacity as successor Servicer) shall be liable for any differential between the Servicing Fee and the amount necessary to induce a successor Servicer to accept its appointment as such pursuant to this Agreement. SECTION 8.12 Servicer's Certificate. On or before the Determination Date following each Collection Period, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Back-up Servicer and the Collateral Agent a Servicer's Certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto containing all information necessary to make the distributions pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Indenture (so long as the Notes remain outstanding) for the Collection Period preceding the date of such Servicer's Certificate and the Indenture Trustee shall forward such Servicer's Certificate to the Noteholders and the Owner Trustee to forward to the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders, including (A) the amount of aggregate collections on the Receivables, (B) the aggregate Purchase Amount of the Receivables repurchased by BVAC and purchased by the Servicer, (C) the amount, if any, to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account, (D) information respecting (i) delinquent Receivables that are 30, 60 and 90 days past due, (ii) the number of repossessions of Financed Vehicles during the preceding Collection Period, number of unliquidated repossessed Financed Vehicles, gross and net losses on the Receivables, and Recoveries, and Recoveries on Charged-Off Receivables, and (iii) adjusted, modified or extended Receivables as necessary or requested by a Rating Agency to confirm compliance with Section 8.05(a) hereof; and (E) the Lock-Box Collection Percentage (F) whether, to the knowledge of the Servicer a Servicer Default has occurred, (G) each other item listed in Section 8.05 of the Indenture reasonably requested by a Rating Agency or the 39 Indenture Trustee. Receivables purchased by BVAC as of the last day of such Collection Period shall be identified by the BVAC account number with respect to such Receivable (as specified in Schedule A to this Agreement). SECTION 8.13 Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Default. (a) The Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee (without duplication), the Owner Trustee, the Back-up Servicer, the Rating Agencies and the Noteholders, on or before April 30 of each year, beginning on April 30, 2007, an Officers' Certificate, dated as of December 31 of the preceding year, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period (or in the case of the initial Officer's Certificate for any Servicer, the period from the Closing Date or the date it became Servicer to and including such preceding December 31) 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 throughout such period, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. (b) The Servicer shall deliver to, without duplication, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Back-up Servicer and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained actual knowledge thereof, but in no event later than 2 Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Servicer Default (if BVAC is the Servicer) under Section 14.01 or a Back-up Servicer Default (if the Back-up Servicer is the Servicer) under Section 14.02. The Transferor shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Back-up Servicer and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained actual knowledge thereof, but in no event later than 2 Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Servicer Default under clause (ii) of Section 14.01. The Indenture Trustee shall forward a copy of each Officer's Certificate so received to each Noteholder. SECTION 8.14 Annual Independent Certified Public Accountant's Report. (a) The Servicer will deliver to, without duplication, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Back-up Servicer and the Rating Agencies, on or before April 30 of each year beginning April 30, 2007, a report prepared by Independent Accountants, who may also render other services to the Servicer or any of its Affiliates or to the Transferor addressed to the Board of Directors of the Servicer or any of its Affiliates and the Indenture Trustee and dated during the current year, to the effect that such firm has audited the financial statements of the Servicer and issued its report therefor and that such audit (a) was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as such firm considered necessary in the circumstances; (b) included tests relating to automotive loans serviced for others in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (the "Program"), to the 40 extent the procedures in the Program are applicable to the servicing obligations set forth in this Agreement; (c) included an examination of the delinquency and loss statistics relating to the Servicer's portfolio of automobile, sport utility vehicle, light-duty truck and van sale contracts and loan and security agreements; and (d) except as described in the report, disclosed no exceptions or errors in the records relating to automobile, sport utility vehicle, light-duty truck and van loans serviced for others that, in the firm's opinion, the Program requires such firm to report. The accountant's report shall further state that (1) a review in accordance with agreed upon procedures was made of three randomly selected Servicer's Certificates; (2) except as disclosed in the report, no exceptions or errors in the Servicer's Certificates were found; and (3) the delinquency and loss information relating to the Receivables contained in the Servicer's Certificates were found to be accurate. (b) Such report shall also indicate that the firm is independent of the Servicer and its Affiliates within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. (c) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Indenture Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Indenture Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Servicer's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder. (d) Notwithstanding this Section 8.14, if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as the successor Servicer, it shall only be required to provide a copy of its annual SAS 70 report. SECTION 8.15 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables. The Servicer shall provide to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Back-up Servicer access to the Receivables Files in such cases where such parties shall be required by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation. Access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the normal business hours at the respective 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 8.15. SECTION 8.16 Servicer Expenses. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder (other than those that are otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms hereof), including fees and disbursements of independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer, and expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee; provided, however, that any successor Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for any Transition Costs, and with respect to Back-up Servicer, such costs as set forth on Schedule C attached hereto. 41 SECTION 8.17 Reports to Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall provide to any Noteholder who so requests in writing (addressed to the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee) a copy of any certificate described in Section 8.12 hereof, the annual statement described in Section 8.13 hereof, or the annual report described in Section 8.14 hereof. The Indenture Trustee may require the requesting party to pay a reasonable sum to cover the cost of the Indenture Trustee's complying with such request. SECTION 8.18 Fidelity Bond. Each of the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer and any successor Servicer hereby represent and covenant that it has obtained, and shall continue to maintain in full force and effect, a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy covering it of a type and to the extent and in such amount as is customary for prudent servicers engaged in the business of servicing motor vehicle retail installment sales contracts similar to the Receivables. SECTION 8.19 Delegation of Duties. The Servicer may at any time delegate duties under this Agreement to sub-contractors who are in the business of servicing motor vehicle contracts; provided, however, that no such delegation or sub-contracting of duties by the Servicer shall relieve the Servicer of its responsibility with respect to such duties. In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer of the Receivables (including by reason of an Event of Servicer Default), the successor Servicer shall assume all of the rights and obligations of the predecessor Servicer under one or more subservicing agreements that may have been entered into by the predecessor Servicer by giving notice of such assumption to the predecessor Servicer and any subcontracted Servicer within ten (10) Business Days of the termination of such Servicer as servicer of the Receivables; provided, however, that a successor Servicer may elect to terminate a subservicing agreement. If the successor Servicer does not elect to assume any subservicing agreement, any and all costs of termination shall be at the predecessor Servicer's expense. Upon the giving of such notice, the successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the predecessor Servicer's interest therein and to have replaced the predecessor Servicer as a party to the subservicing agreement to the same extent as if the subservicing agreement had been assigned to the assuming party except that the predecessor Servicer and the subcontracted Servicer, if any, shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations accrued up to the date of the replacement of the predecessor Servicer under the subservicing agreement and the subcontracted Servicer, if any, shall not be relieved of any liability or obligation to the predecessor Servicer that survives the assignment or termination of the subservicing agreement. The successor Servicer shall notify each Rating Agency if any subservicing agreement is assumed by such successor Servicer. The predecessor Servicer shall, upon request of the Indenture Trustee or any successor Servicer, and, at the expense of the predecessor Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to the subservicing agreement and the Receivables then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the subservicing agreement to the assuming party. SECTION 8.20 Derivatives. The Servicer may deposit a de minimis amount of derivatives at any time into the Trust and any such deposited derivatives shall become part of the Trust Property. Such deposits will be made without the intent or effect of guarantying a specific rate of return to the Noteholders or with the intent or effect of providing any credit recourse or enhancement by the Servicer for the benefit of the Trust or the Noteholders. In connection with any such deposit with a fair market value in excess of $1,000, as determined by the Servicer, the 42 Servicer shall obtain an Opinion of Counsel that states, in substance, that such deposit will not change the conclusions reached by any "true sale" opinion delivered on behalf of BVAC on the Closing Date. SECTION 8.21 Receivables Sales. (a) Upon the sale of any Receivable pursuant to Section 8.05(a) hereof, the Servicer will notify the Custodian pursuant to a certificate of an officer of the Servicer (which certificate shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such sale which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 8.05(a) have been so deposited) and shall request delivery of the Receivable and Receivable File to the purchaser of such Receivable. (b) The Servicer shall not use any procedure in selecting Receivables to be sold to third party purchasers, pursuant to Section 8.05(a), which is materially adverse to the interest of the Noteholders. ARTICLE IX COLLECTIONS; DISTRIBUTIONS TO NOTEHOLDERS, RESIDUAL INTEREST HOLDERS AND CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SECTION 9.01 Lock-Box Account. (a) BVAC, as initial Servicer, shall establish the Lock-Box Account as an Eligible Account with the Lock-Box Bank and, no later than thirty-five (35) days after the Closing Date, provide notice thereof to the Obligors of the Receivables, all in accordance with the terms of the Lock-Box Agreement; provided that the Servicer may from time to time (i) upon prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee (which notice shall be at least ten (10) Business Days other than with respect to the successor Lock-Box established and by CenterOne in contemplation of such entity assuming the function of Service hereunder), establish additional or substitute Lock-Box Accounts, each of which shall be an Eligible Account, and (ii) close or terminate the use of such account or any subsequently established accounts, each of which accounts, at such time, shall no longer be deemed to be a Lock-Box Account; provided, further, that pursuant to the Lock-Box Agreement, the Lock-Box Processor and no other person, other than the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, shall have authority to direct disposition of funds related to the Receivables on deposit in the Lock-Box Account consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and the Lock-Box Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility with respect to the Lock-Box Processor's or the Servicer's directions or activities as set forth in the preceding sentence. The Lock-Box Account shall be established pursuant to and maintained in accordance with the Lock-Box Agreement and shall at all times be an Eligible Account. In conjunction with the establishment of the Lock-Box Account, the Lock-box Processor, on behalf of BVAC, as initial Servicer, shall establish and maintain the Lock-Box at a United States Post Office Branch in accordance with the terms of the Lock-Box Agreement. Notwithstanding the Lock-Box Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Lock-Box and the Lock-Box 43 Agreement, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders for servicing and administering the Receivables and the other Trust Property in accordance with provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue thereof. (b) In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be acting as such, the Lock-Box Agreement shall terminate in accordance with its terms and thereafter, funds on deposit in the Lock-Box Account shall be distributed by the Lock-Box Bank, as agent for the beneficial owners of funds in the Lock-Box Account (including the Issuer), as directed by the successor Servicer, and the Lock-Box Bank shall deposit any such funds relating to the Receivables to such other account as shall be identified by the successor Servicer for deposit therein; provided, however, that the outgoing Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations on the part of the outgoing Servicer to the Lock-Box Bank under such Lock-Box Agreement. The outgoing Servicer shall, upon request of the Indenture Trustee, but at the expense of the outgoing Servicer, deliver to the successor Servicer all documents and records relating to the Lock-Box Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held in the Lock-Box Account or held by the Lock-Box Processor in respect of the Receivables and otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of any Lock-Box Agreement to the successor Servicer. In the event that the Lock-Box Account fails at any time to qualify as an Eligible Account, the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause the Lock-Box Bank to deliver, at the direction of the Majority Controlling Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee or a successor Lock-Box Bank, all documents and records relating to the Receivables and all amounts held (or thereafter received) on deposit in the Lock-Box Account or held by the Lock-Box Processor in respect of the Receivables (together with an accounting of such amounts) and shall otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Lock-Box arrangements, and the Servicer shall promptly notify the Obligors to make payments to any new Lock-Box. (c) Until such time as the Lock-Box Collection Percentage with respect to any Determination Date equals or exceeds 92.5% (the "Lock-Box Collection Percentage"), the Servicer (i) shall on or prior to the Closing Date, obtain and maintain an employee dishonesty bond in the amount of $3,000,000 covering each employee of the Servicer responsible for opening, processing and depositing Scheduled Receivable Payments received directly by the Servicer, and (ii) shall prepare a weekly reconciliation (certified by an Authorized Officer of the Servicer), of Scheduled Receivable Payments which have been received by the Servicer during the prior calendar week and confirm that such payments have been deposited to the Look-Box Account or the Collection Account (the "Reconciliation Report"), which Reconciliation Report shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee on Tuesday of each week (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), with respect to collections received during the immediately preceding calendar week. The provisions of this Section 9.01 shall not apply to the Back-up Servicer; provided, however, any subsequent lock-box account established by CenterOne as successor Servicer with respect to the Receivables shall at all times be an Eligible Account at an Eligible Bank. 44 SECTION 9.02 Collection Account. (a) BVAC, as initial Servicer, shall establish the Collection Account as a segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties with the Indenture Trustee (at the Indenture Trustee Office) or another Eligible Bank. The Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee to invest the amounts in the Collection Account in Eligible Investments that mature not later than the Business Day prior to the next succeeding Payment Date and to hold such Eligible Investments to maturity (provided that, if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, such direction shall be made by the Transferor). The Indenture Trustee (or its custodian) shall at all times (i) maintain possession of any negotiable instruments or securities evidencing Eligible Investments until the time of sale or maturity and each certificated security or negotiable instrument evidencing an Eligible Investment shall be endorsed in blank or to the Indenture Trustee (or its custodian) or registered in the name of the Indenture Trustee and (ii) cause any Eligible Investment represented by an uncertificated security to be registered in the name of the Indenture Trustee (or its custodian). (b) Funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee (or any custodian with respect to funds on deposit in any such account) in Eligible Investments selected in writing by the Servicer (pursuant to standing instructions or otherwise) (provided that, if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, such selection shall be made by the Transferor), bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date if a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is the Obligor thereon, and (ii) no later than the next Payment Date, if the Indenture Trustee is the Obligor thereon; provided, however, it is understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any loss arising from such investment in Eligible Investments unless the Eligible Investment was a direct obligation of the Indenture Trustee or unless such loss was caused by the Indenture Trustee's negligence or willful misconduct (it being understood and acknowledged that no loss on any such Eligible Investment which was made in conformity with this Agreement and the instructions of the Servicer or Transferor, shall be considered "caused by the Indenture Trustee's negligence or willful misconduct"). No investment may be sold prior to its maturity. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders as their interests may appear. Funds deposited in the Collection Account on the day immediately preceding a Payment Date upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments are not required to be invested overnight. On each Payment Date, all interest income (net of investment losses and expenses) on funds on deposit in the Collection Account as of the end of the Collection Period shall be included in Available Funds. For purposes of this paragraph, the Indenture Trustee will take delivery of the Eligible Investments in accordance with Schedule D. (c) If (i) the Servicer shall have failed to give investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account to the Indenture Trustee by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer and Indenture Trustee) on any Business Day; or (ii) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with 45 respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable, or, if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default under the Indenture, amounts collected or receivable from the Trust Property are being applied as if there had not been such a declaration; then the Indenture Trustee shall, to the fullest extent practicable, invest and reinvest funds in the Collection Account in one or more investments within the categories of Eligible Investments as specified in an investment instruction letter delivered by the Servicer (provided that, if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, such direction shall be made by the Transferor). (d) (1) The Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds from time to time on deposit in, and assets credited to, the Trust Accounts and in all proceeds thereof and all such funds, assets, investments, proceeds and income shall be part of the Trust Property. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trust Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, to the extent expressly set forth herein or in the other Basic Documents, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders as their interests may appear. (2) With respect to any Eligible Investments held from time to time in any Trust Account, the Indenture Trustee agrees that: (A) any Eligible Investment that is held in deposit accounts shall be, except as otherwise provided herein, subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto; and (B) any other Eligible Investment shall be held, pending maturity or disposition by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the definition of "Delivery." (e) No Trust Account shall be maintained with an institution other than the Indenture Trustee unless such institution agrees in writing to the provisions of Sections 9.02(d)(2) and 9.12 hereof as if such institution were the Indenture Trustee, except that pursuant to the first sentence of Section 9.12 hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall continue to be the "entitlement holder" of the related Trust Account. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment direction. Subject to the provisions of 9.01 hereof and the Indenture Trustee's standard of care set forth in Section 6.01 of the Indenture, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to 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. 46 SECTION 9.03 Collections. (a) Upon establishment of the Lock-Box Account in accordance with Section 9.01(a) hereof, the Servicer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Lock-Box Processor to transfer any payments in respect of the Receivables from or on behalf of Obligors received in the Lock-Box to the Lock-Box Account on the Business Day on which such payments are received, pursuant to the Lock-Box Agreement. Within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such funds into the Lock-Box Account, the Servicer shall cause the Lock-Box Bank to transfer available funds from the Lock-Box Account to the Collection Account, and if such funds are not available funds, as soon thereafter as they clear (i.e., become available for withdrawal from the Lock-Box Account). In addition, the Servicer shall remit all payments (other than amounts comprising the Supplemental Servicing Fee) by or on behalf of the Obligors received by the Servicer with respect to the Receivables (other than Purchased Receivables), and all Liquidation Proceeds, insurance proceeds and other collections from whatever source, no later than the second Business Day following receipt into the Lock-Box Account or the Collection Account, as applicable. On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account the foregoing amounts received through the date that is two Business Days prior to the Closing Date with respect to the Receivables during the first Collection Period. (b) The Indenture Trustee shall deposit in the Collection Account any funds received from the Collateral Agent or from the Reserve Account. SECTION 9.04 Additional Deposits (a) (i) Not later than the Determination Date, the Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account the aggregate Purchase Amount for such Collection Period pursuant to Sections 7.02 and 8.10 hereof; and (ii) not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the related Payment Date, the Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account the Redemption Price for Receivables on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 16.02 hereof. (b) Following the acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Indenture, any proceeds of the Trust Property shall be deposited in the Collection Account to be distributed by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with Section 8.05(g) of the Indenture. (c) On or before each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer to the Collection Account any amounts transferred to the Indenture Trustee by the Collateral Agent from the Reserve Account. (d) On or before the Redemption Date, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit in the Collection Account the Redemption Price paid by or on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to Article XI of the Indenture. (e) On the Business Day upon which any sale of Receivables contemplated by Section 8.05(a), any Sale Amount received shall be deposited into the Collection Account. 47 SECTION 9.05 Application of Funds. (a) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount of Available Funds and the amount of funds necessary to make the distributions required pursuant to Section 8.05(a) of the Indenture on the next Payment Date. The Servicer shall by a Servicer's Certificate on or before the Determination Date notify the Owner Trustee, Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee of such amounts by telecopy to the Corporate Trust Office and the Indenture Trustee Office or to such numbers as the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee may from time to time provide, followed promptly by mailing such notice to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. (b) [Reserved] (c) On each Payment Date, the Owner Trustee shall send to the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders the Servicer's Certificate provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer for such Payment Date. SECTION 9.06 Reserve Account. The Servicer agrees, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, to deposit the Reserve Account Initial Deposit in the Reserve Account on the Closing Date. SECTION 9.07 Advances. (a) (i) As of the last day of the initial Collection Period, the Servicer shall advance funds equal to the excess, if any, of Monthly Interest due in respect of the initial Collection Period, over the Collected Interest for such Collection Period; and (ii) as of the last day of each subsequent Collection Period, the Servicer shall advance funds in the amount of the Interest Advance Amount (or such other amount as the Servicer shall reasonably determine to cover an Interest Shortfall) with respect to each Receivable that is delinquent for more than 30 days, in each such case, to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, determines that the Advance will be recoverable from payments by or on behalf of the Obligor, the Purchase Amount, or Liquidation Proceeds. With respect to each Receivable, the Advance paid pursuant to this Section 9.07 shall increase Outstanding Advances. Outstanding Advances shall be reduced by subsequent payments by or on behalf of the Obligor, collections of Liquidation Proceeds, or payments of the Purchase Amount in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.05 of the Indenture. The Servicer shall remit any Advances with respect to a Collection Period to the Collection Account on or before the related Determination Date. (b) If the Servicer shall determine that an Outstanding Advance with respect to any Receivable shall not be recoverable, the Servicer shall be reimbursed from any collections made on other Receivables in the Trust in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.05 of the Indenture, and Outstanding Advances with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced accordingly. (c) No successor Servicer shall be obligated to make Advances under this Agreement and shall not be liable for Advances incurred by the Servicer before the commencement of performance by such successor Servicer. 48 SECTION 9.08 No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Subject to Section 9.05 hereof, moneys received by the Owner Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law or this Agreement and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon. SECTION 9.09 Accounting and Reports to the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall deliver to the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders, as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, or as may be requested by such Certificateholders, such information, reports or statements as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders to prepare their federal, State and local income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust's characterization for tax purposes as a disregarded entity so long as the Transferor or any other Person is the sole beneficial owner of the Trust, no federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (i) the Certificates are issued pursuant to this Agreement and remain outstanding, (ii) the Owner Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that, based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof, or as a result of a transfer of a beneficial interest in the Trust permitted by Section 11.04 hereof, the Code requires such a filing or (iii) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return. In the event that there shall be two or more beneficial owners of the Trust (including by virtue of the issuance of the Certificates or treatment of any class of Notes as a beneficial ownership in the Trust pursuant to a final determination of the Internal Revenue Service or a court), the Owner Trustee shall inform the Indenture Trustee in writing of such event other than the issuance of the Certificates, (x) the Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, shall prepare, or shall cause to be prepared, federal and, if applicable, State or local partnership tax returns required to be filed by the Trust (using the calendar year or such other taxable year as may be required by the Code) and shall remit such returns to the Transferor for signature (or if the Transferor no longer owns the Residual Interest, to the Transferor to the extent its tax liability is affected thereby and otherwise to the successor Residual Interest Holder owning the largest percentage interest in the partnership) at least (5) days before such returns are due to be filed, and (y) capital accounts shall be maintained for each beneficial owner in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code reflecting each such beneficial owner's share of the income, gains, deductions and losses of the Trust and/or guaranteed payments made by the Trust and contributions to, and distributions from, the Trust. The Transferor (or such successor Residual Interest Holder, as applicable) shall promptly sign, or cause to be signed pursuant to Section 15.04(a), such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, and such returns shall be filed by the Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, with the appropriate tax authorities. In the event that a "tax matters partner" (within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(7)) is required to be appointed with respect to the Trust, the Transferor is hereby designated as tax matters partner or, if the Transferor is not a Residual Interest Holder, the Transferor to the extent its tax liability is affected thereby and otherwise the successor Residual Interest Holder owning the largest percentage interest in the partnership, shall be designated as tax matters partner. In no event shall the Owner Trustee, the Administrator or the Transferor (or such designee Residual Interest Holder, as applicable) be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust, any other Residual Interest Holder or the Certificateholders or the Noteholders arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal, State, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any 49 other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by the Owner Trustee, the Administrator or the Transferor (or such designee Residual Interest Holder), as the case may be, in breach of its obligations under this Agreement. Unless otherwise instructed by the beneficial owner of a majority in interest of the partnership, none of the Owner Trustee, the Administrator, or the Transferor shall elect, or shall cause an election to be made on behalf of the Trust under (i) Section 1278 of the Code to accrue its market discount income currently or (ii) Section 754 of the Code. SECTION 9.10 [Reserved]. SECTION 9.11 Certain Reimbursements to the Servicer. The Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to a Collection Period for amounts previously deposited in the Collection Account but later determined by the Servicer to have resulted from mistaken deposits or postings or checks returned for insufficient funds; provided, however, that such reimbursement must be requested by the Servicer within six months of the related mistaken deposit into the Collection Account, otherwise such right to reimbursement shall be forfeited (this proviso shall not apply to any successor Servicer). The amount to be reimbursed hereunder shall be paid to the Servicer on the related Payment Date pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Indenture upon certification by the Servicer of such amounts and the provision of such information to the Indenture Trustee as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of such certification. SECTION 9.12 Securities Accounts. The Indenture Trustee agrees that any Trust Account held by it hereunder shall be maintained as a "securities account" as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in New York (the "New York UCC"), and that it shall be acting as a "securities intermediary" for the Indenture Trustee itself as the "entitlement holder" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(7) of the New York UCC) with respect to each such Trust Account. The parties hereto agree that each Trust Account shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and regardless of any provision in any other agreement, the "securities intermediary's jurisdiction" (within the meaning of Section 8-110 of the New York UCC) shall be the State of New York. The Indenture Trustee acknowledges and agrees that (a) each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, instrument or cash) credited to the Accounts shall be treated as a "financial asset" within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the New York UCC and (b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if at any time the Indenture Trustee shall receive any order from the Indenture Trustee directing transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to the Trust Accounts, the Indenture Trustee shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Transferor or any other person. In the event of any conflict of any provision of this Section 9.12 with any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement or document, the provisions of this Section 9.12 shall prevail. 50 ARTICLE X VOTING RIGHTS AND OTHER ACTIONS SECTION 10.01 Prior Notice with Respect to Certain Matters. The Owner Trustee shall not take any of the actions set forth below unless the Owner Trustee shall have notified the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and each Rating Agency of the proposed action and each of the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders have approved such action in writing, which approval has been received by the Owner Trustee by, the 30th day after such notice has been given: (i) the election by the Trust to file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust (unless such amendment is required to be filed under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act); (ii) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is required; (iii) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required and such amendment materially adversely affects the interest of the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders; (iv) except pursuant to Section 17.01 hereof, the amendment, change or modification of this Agreement; (v) except as provided in Article XVI hereof, dissolve, terminate or liquidate the Trust in whole or in part; (vi) do any act which would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Trust; (vii) confess a judgment against the Trust; (viii) possess Trust assets, or assign the Trust's right to property, for other than a Trust purpose; (ix) cause the Trust to lend any funds to any entity; (x) change the Trust's purpose and powers from those set forth in this Agreement; or (xi) cause the Trust to incur, assume or guaranty any indebtedness except as set forth in this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

The Owner Trustee shall take the actions referred to in the preceding sentence only upon written instructions signed by the Instructing Party and the furnishing of indemnification satisfactory to the Owner Trustee by the Residual Interest Holders and/or the Certificateholders and providing each Rating Agency with prior or concurrent notice of such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, any instruction, direction or consent to be given by the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Instructing Party under this Agreement or any other Basic Document to the Owner Trustee shall include a certification by such Majority Controlling Noteholders or Instructing Party that such Person is the Majority Controlling Noteholders or Instructing Party in accordance with the provisions of the Basic Documents, and the Owner Trustee shall have no liability to the extent it relies in good faith thereon. SECTION 10.03 Restrictions on Residual Interest Holders' and the Certificateholders' Power. (a) Neither the Residual Interest Holders nor the Certificateholders shall 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 Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 1.03 hereof nor shall the Owner Trustee follow any direction to the extent the Owner Trustee has actual knowledge that such direction is in violation hereof. (b) Neither the Residual Interest Holders nor the Certificateholders shall have any right by virtue or by availing themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action, or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement or any Basic Document, unless such Residual Interest Holders or Certificateholders are the Instructing Party pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof and unless such Residual Interest Holders or Certificateholders previously shall have given to the Owner Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as provided in this Agreement, and also unless such Residual Interest Holders or Certificateholders shall have made written request upon the Owner Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Owner Trustee under this Agreement and shall have offered to the Owner Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Owner Trustee, for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request, and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit, or proceeding, and during such 30-day period no request or waiver inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Owner Trustee pursuant to and in compliance with this Section or Section 10.02 hereof. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 52 SECTION 10.04 Control. The Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders shall not have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, any written notice of the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be effective if signed by, in the case of Residual Interest Holders, the Holders of Residual Interests evidencing not less than a majority of the Residual Interest at the time of the delivery of such notice or, in the case of Certificateholder, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Certificate Balance at the time of the delivery of such notice. SECTION 10.05 [Reserved]. SECTION 10.06 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of the Certificates. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Transferor pursuant to Article III hereof and until the issuance of the Certificates to the initial Certificateholders, the Transferor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust. ARTICLE XI THE RESIDUAL INTEREST AND THE CERTIFICATES SECTION 11.01 Initial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Transferor pursuant to Article III and until the issuance of the Certificates to the initial Certificateholders, the Transferor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust. SECTION 11.02 The Residual Interest and the Certificates. The Certificates shall be issued in the form of one or more certificates and shall be initially issued to J.P.Morgan Securities Inc. or an affiliate thereof. The Residual Interest shall be uncertificated and shall initially be issued to the Transferor. The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee. A Certificate 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 Trust, shall be valid and binding obligations of the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificate. SECTION 11.03 Authentication of Certificates. Subject to Section 11.04 hereof, the Owner Trustee shall cause one or more Certificates to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated, and delivered to or upon the written order of the Transferor, signed by its chairman of the board, its president, or any vice president, without further corporate action by the Transferor, in authorized denominations, pursuant to this Agreement. No Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication, substantially as set forth in the form of Certificates attached as Exhibit E to this Agreement, executed by a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Each Certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication. 53 SECTION 11.04 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Residual Interest or Certificates. (a) Upon formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Transferor pursuant to Section 1.05, J.P.Morgan Securities Inc. or any affiliate thereof shall be issued the Certificates, duly executed and delivered in exchange therefor, and the Transferor shall be issued the Residual Interest, each evidencing, collectively, ownership of 100% of the beneficial ownership of the assets of the Trust. (b) Neither the registered nor the beneficial interest in the Residual Interest or any Certificate may be transferred, assigned, hypothecated or pledged in any manner by any direct or indirect owner thereof (including any transferee thereof subsequent to the date hereof) without the prior written notice by such owner to the Owner Trustee. Any purported transfer, assignment, hypothecation or pledge in any manner of any such registered or beneficial interest in the Residual Interest or any Certificate in the Trust in violation of this Section 11.04(b) shall be null and void and shall not cause any rights to inure to the benefit of the purported transferee. (c) (i) The Owner Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the Corporate Trust Office, a Residual Interest Register and a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of each interest in the Residual Interest and each Certificate and of transfers and exchanges of the Residual Interest and Certificates subject to the restrictions provided herein. (ii) The Residual Interest Registrar shall provide the Indenture Trustee with the names and addresses of the Residual Interest Holders on the Closing Date, to the extent such information has been provided to the Residual Interest Registrar and in the form provided to the Residual Interest Registrar on such date. Upon any transfers of the Residual Interest, the Residual Interest Registrar shall notify the Indenture Trustee of the name and address of the transferee in writing, by facsimile, on the day of such transfer, or promptly thereafter. (iii) The Certificate Registrar shall provide the Indenture Trustee with the names and addresses of the Certificateholders on the Closing Date, to the extent such information has been provided to the Certificate Registrar and in the form provided to the Certificate Registrar on such date. Upon any transfers of the Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Indenture Trustee of the name and address of the transferee in writing, by facsimile, on the day of such transfer, or promptly thereafter.

(e) Every request to register a transfer or exchange of the Residual Interest and every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee duly executed by the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Owner Trustee. (f) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Residual Interest or a Certificate, but the Owner Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Residual Interest or a Certificate. SECTION 11.05 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost, or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Owner Trustee, or if the Owner Trustee shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss, or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 11.05, the Owner Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 11.05 shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen, or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. SECTION 11.06 Persons Deemed Certificateholders. Every Person by virtue of becoming a Residual Interest Holder or a Certificateholder in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

The Servicer and the Back-up Servicer and any respective director or officer or employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement. (b) Except as provided in this Agreement, 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 service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement (collection actions with respect to Charged-Off Receivables are understood to be incidental to the Servicer's duties to service the Receivables), and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability. 72 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Servicer nor the Back-up Servicer, nor any of their respective directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer, shall be liable to any party hereto (or any Affiliate of any such Person) for indirect, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages arising from any breach of contract, tort, or other wrong relating to the establishment, administration, or collection of the Receivables or as a result of any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or any other Basic Document; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or Back-up Servicer, respectively, against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of negligence (or, with respect to CenterOne, gross negligence) in the performance of its respective actions or by the failure to act in performing its respective duties under this Agreement. SECTION 13.05 Servicer and Back-up Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Sections 14.01 and 14.02 hereof, as applicable, neither the Servicer nor the Back-up Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement as Servicer or Back-up Servicer, respectively, except upon a determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements the performance of its duties under this Agreement would cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements in a manner which would result in a material adverse effect on the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer, as the case may be, and the Majority Controlling Noteholders does not (i) elect in its absolute discretion to waive the obligations of the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer, as the case may be, to perform the duties that render it legally unable to act or (ii) allow in its absolute discretion the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer, as the case may be, to delegate those duties to another Person. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel as to the legal requirements that would be violated, delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. No resignation of the Servicer shall become effective until the Back-up Servicer or an entity acceptable to the Majority Controlling Noteholders, or a successor Servicer that is an Eligible Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer. No resignation of the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer shall relieve the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer, as the case may be, of any liability to which it has previously become subject under this Agreement or any Basic Document.

Except as provided in Section 13.03 hereof, it is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the Servicer or the Transferor may at any time delegate any duties including duties as custodian to any Person willing to accept such delegation and to perform such duties (including any affiliate of the Servicer) in accordance with the customary procedures of the Servicer. In connection with such delegation, the Servicer or the Transferor may assign rights to the delegee or direct the payment to the delegee of benefits or amounts otherwise inuring to the benefit of, or payable to, the Transferor or the Servicer hereunder. Any such delegation shall not relieve the Servicer or the Transferor of their respective liability and responsibility with respect to such duties, and shall not constitute a resignation within Section 13.05 hereof. The Servicer shall give written notice to the Rating Agencies, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of any such delegation. 73 ARTICLE XIV SERVICER AND BACK-UP SERVICER DEFAULTS SECTION 14.01 Events of Servicer Default.

(vii) [Reserved.] then, and in each and every case, subject to the notice and cure provisions of paragraph (b) below, the Indenture Trustee may or, at the direction of the Majority Controlling Noteholders, by notice then given in writing to the Back-up Servicer as the Servicer or as the Back-up Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Noteholders), shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Back-up Servicer as the Servicer or as the Back-up Servicer under this Agreement. Upon sending or receiving any such notice, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly send a copy thereof to the Owner Trustee, the Rating Agencies, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer and to each Noteholder, each Residual Interest Holder and each Certificateholder. On or after the receipt by the Back-up Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Back-up Servicer as the Servicer and as the Back-up Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Securities or the Receivables or otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in any such successor Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable, as may be appointed under Section 14.03 hereof; and, without limitation, any such successor Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the predecessor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and related documents, or otherwise. The Back-up Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable, in effecting the termination of its responsibilities and rights under this Agreement, including the transfer to the successor Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable, for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by it for deposit, or shall thereafter be received by it with respect to any Receivable, and the related accounts and records maintained by the Back-up Servicer. (b) The Majority Controlling Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee directly shall provide the Back-up Servicer with written notice of any Back-up Servicer Default, which notice must grant the Back-up Servicer an opportunity to cure any such event of termination as follows: (i) in the case of any failure of the Back-up Servicer to properly administer or deliver any monies as required pursuant to this Agreement, for a period of three (3) Business Days after receipt of the notice by the Back-up Servicer; or (ii) in the case of any failure pursuant to this Agreement that is non-monetary in nature, for a period 79 of thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice by the Back-up Servicer. Such notice must explicitly provide that if any such failure by the Back-up Servicer giving rise to the event of termination is not cured within the applicable cure period, then the Majority Controlling Noteholders shall have the right to terminate the appointment of the Back-up Servicer effective as of a date no sooner than the end of the applicable cure period. (c) The Back-up Servicer may be released from its obligations under this Agreement if it does not receive payment of its Back-up Servicer Fee or the Servicer Fee if it is a successor Servicer required to be made under the terms of this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer of written notice of such failure and that the Back-up Servicer intends to terminate its appointment as Back-up Servicer if such failure to pay is not remedied within such thirty (30) day period, which written notice shall explicitly state that failure to pay any Back-up Servicer Fee or successor Servicer Fee owing to the Back-up Servicer, if not cured within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of notice thereof, will give the Back-up Servicer the right to terminate its appointment as Back-up Servicer. SECTION 14.03 Appointment of Successors. (a) Upon the Servicer's receipt of notice of its termination from the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 14.01 hereof or the Servicer's resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice (which date shall be at least 45 days after the date of such notice), or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until the expiration of 45 days after receipt of such notice by the Servicer and, in the case of resignation, until the later of (x) the date forty-five (45) days from the delivery to the Back-up Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or the date of written confirmation of such notice prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45) days) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) the date upon which the predecessor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. In the event of the Servicer's resignation or termination hereunder, and unless the Majority Controlling Noteholders directs otherwise, the Back-up Servicer shall, subject to the provisions of Section 14.01, automatically be the successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Back-up Servicer as Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that neither the Back-up Servicer, nor any other successor Servicer shall be liable for any actions of the Servicer or any other predecessor Servicer prior to such succession or for any breach by the Servicer or any other predecessor Servicer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement or in any related document or agreement. (b) Upon appointment, subject to the provisions of Section 14.01, the successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the predecessor Servicer and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, and liabilities arising thereafter relating 80 thereto placed on the Servicer, and shall be entitled to the Servicer Fee and all of the rights granted to the predecessor Servicer, by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, such responsibilities, duties and liabilities shall be amended as provided in Schedule E hereto. The predecessor Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for Outstanding Advances. (c) In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the successor Servicer to be compensated out of payments on Receivables as it and such successor Servicer shall agree; provided, however, that (except as provided in Schedule C with respect to the Back-up Servicer) no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the original Servicer under this Agreement. The Owner Trustee and such successor Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. (d) To the extent that the Back-up Servicer shall be entitled to any indemnity payment from the Servicer pursuant to Sections 13.02 or 14.03(i) hereof and such indemnity payment has not been made within 30 calendar days of demand thereof, the Back-up Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such unpaid amounts, to the extent of available funds, as provided in Section 8.05 of the Indenture. (e) If the Back-up Servicer becomes aware of any error or continuing error, which in the reasonable business judgment of the Back-up Servicer impairs its ability to perform its services hereunder, the Back-up Servicer may undertake such data or records reconstruction as it deems appropriate to correct any such error or continued error and to prevent future continuing error. To the extent it is not otherwise reimbursed under this Agreement, the Back-up Servicer shall be entitled to recover its costs incurred in correcting any such error or continuing error. (f) Upon the Back-up Servicer's receipt of notice of termination following a Back-up Servicer Default or the Back-up Servicer's resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Back-up Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Back-up Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the later of (x) the date 30 days from the delivery to the Back-up Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or the date of written confirmation of such notice prior to the expiration of the 30 days) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) the date upon which the Back-up Servicer shall become unable to act as Back-up Servicer or Servicer, as applicable, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. (g) Upon receipt by any successor Servicer (other than the Back-up Servicer in accordance with Section 14.03(f) above) of notice of termination or such successor Servicer's resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such successor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the 81 case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the later of (x) the date 30 days from the delivery to the then acting Back-up Servicer, if any, and the Indenture Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or the date of written confirmation of such notice prior to the expiration of the 30 days) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) the date upon which such successor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. In the event of such successor Servicer's resignation or termination hereunder, and if the Majority Controlling Noteholders so directs, the then acting Back-up Servicer, if any, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that the then acting Back-up Servicer shall not be liable for any actions of the predecessor Servicer prior to such succession or for any breach by the predecessor Servicer of any of its representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement or in any related document or agreement. (h) Notwithstanding the above, if the Servicer or Back-up Servicer, as applicable, is legally unable to so act or the Majority Controlling Noteholders otherwise directs in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Majority Controlling Noteholders shall appoint a successor Servicer or successor Back-up Servicer, as applicable. Otherwise, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint (after soliciting bids from potential servicers), or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Servicer (as successor Servicer) or Back-up Servicer (as successor Back-up Servicer) hereunder, in each case acceptable to the Majority Controlling Noteholders, in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the outgoing Servicer or Back-up Servicer, as applicable, hereunder. (i) Any successor Servicer may accept and reasonably rely on all accounting and servicing records and other documentation provided to such successor Servicer in connection with succession to Servicer duties, including documents prepared or maintained by BVAC, the Transferor, or the Servicer, or any party providing services related to the Receivables (each, a "Third Party"). The initial Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless CenterOne, in its capacity as Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable, and its officers, employees and agents, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that CenterOne, in its capacity as Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer as applicable, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders may sustain in any way (i) solely related to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Servicer or any such Third Party based upon any matter related to or arising out of this Agreement except for any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees, and related costs and judgments arising from the gross negligence of or willful misconduct of CenterOne in its capacity as Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable; or (ii) solely related to the conduct of CenterOne in its capacity as Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer, as applicable, 82 undertaken at the direction of any party hereto or which relate to the transfer of servicing to CenterOne. The successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability (collectively "liability") for the acts or omissions of any Third Party. In the event that the initial Servicer fails to make any such indemnity payment to CenterOne pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to each other successor Servicer hereunder, such successor Servicer shall be entitled to receive such payment from the Issuer, to the extent of Available Funds on each Payment Date, as provided in Section 8.05 of the Indenture; provided, that such Issuer payment shall not relieve the initial Servicer from the responsibility for making such payment to CenterOne in its capacity as Back-up Servicer or successor Servicer and the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of CenterOne with respect to such indemnity claim and shall have a direct right to institute proceedings against the initial Servicer for such payment. If any error, inaccuracy or omission (collectively "error") exists in any information provided to CenterOne in its capacity as successor Servicer, and such error causes or materially contributes to such successor Servicer making or continuing any error (a "continuing error"), such successor Servicer shall have no liability for such continuing error; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect such successor Servicer against any liability arising from its willful misconduct bad faith or gross negligence in discovering or correcting or failing to discover or correct any error or in the performance of its other duties contemplated herein. (j) Notwithstanding anything in the Basic Documents to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee (i) be liable for, or obligated to pay, any Transition Costs or (ii) have any duty or obligation to act as successor Servicer, to act as successor Back-up Servicer or assume any servicing duties under the Basic Documents. SECTION 14.04 Notice of Events of Servicer Default. Upon any notice of an Event of Servicer Default or upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article XIV, the Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Residual Interest Holders at the addresses appearing in the Residual Interest Register, to the Certificateholders at the addresses appearing in the Certificate Register, to each of the Rating Agencies then rating the Notes, to the Indenture Trustee for further notice thereof to the Noteholders. SECTION 14.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Majority Controlling Noteholders may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and/or its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from the Collection Account in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 83 ARTICLE XV THE OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 15.01 Duties of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee, both prior to and after the occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default, shall undertake to perform such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. If an Event of Servicer Default shall have occurred and shall not have been cured and the Owner Trustee has received notice of such Event of Servicer Default, the Owner Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. The Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust, each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party and all certificates, instruments and agreements contemplated thereby. The Owner Trustee shall execute and authenticate the Certificates in accordance with this Agreement and shall execute the Notes in accordance with the Indenture. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other documents to which the Trust is a party and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other documents to which the Trust is a party. Without limiting the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall, upon written direction of the Instructing Party and on behalf of the Trust, file and prove any claim or claims that may exist on behalf of the Trust against the Transferor in connection with any claims paying procedure as part of an insolvency or a receivership proceeding involving the Transferor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other documents to which the Trust is a party to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any other document to which the Trust is a party, 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. Except as expressly provided in the documents to which the Trust is a party, the Owner Trustee shall have no obligation to administer, service or collect the Receivables or to maintain, monitor or otherwise supervise the administration, servicing or collection of the Receivables. SECTION 15.02 Action upon Instruction. (a) Subject to Article X the Instructing Party shall have the exclusive right to direct the actions of the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust, so long as such instructions are not in violation of the express terms set forth herein or in any Basic Document. The Instructing Party shall not instruct the Owner Trustee in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents. (b) The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any 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 or 84 unreimbursed expenses on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law. (c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Instructing Party requesting instruction from it 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 the Instructing Party 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 instruction within ten (10) 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 this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Residual Interest holder and the Certificateholders and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. (d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or 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 may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Instructing Party requesting instruction from it and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten (10) 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 this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. (e) The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (a) that violates the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 1.03 hereof or (b) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result in the Trust becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Instructing Party shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section. (f) The Owner Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee that shall be specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement. To the extent not otherwise provided to such Person 85 pursuant to the terms hereof or the other Basic Documents, and otherwise without duplication, the Owner Trustee shall furnish to the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and the Rating Agencies promptly upon receipt of a written request therefor, duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and any other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee under the Basic Documents. (g) The Owner Trustee shall furnish to the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and the Rating Agencies promptly upon receipt of a written request therefor, duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and any other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee under the Basic Documents. (h) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Owner Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own bad faith; provided, however, that: (i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default, and after the curing of all such Events of Servicer Default that may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Owner Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as shall be specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Owner Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Owner Trustee, or manifest error, the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely on the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed in any certificates or opinions furnished to the Owner Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement; (ii) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Owner Trustee shall have been grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; (iii) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with this Agreement or at the direction of the Instructing Party relating to the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Owner Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Owner Trustee, under this Agreement; (iv) The Owner Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the Servicer referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 14.01 hereof, or of any failure by the Transferor to comply with the obligations of the Transferor referred to in clause (ii) of Section 14.01 hereof, unless a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee receives written notice of such failure (it being understood that knowledge of the Servicer 86 or the Servicer as custodian, in its capacity as agent for the Owner Trustee, is not attributable to the Owner Trustee) from the Servicer or the Transferor, as the case may be; and (v) Without limiting the generality of this Section or Section 15.07 hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have no duty (A) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to therein or any financing statement (or continuation statement) evidencing a security interest in the Receivables or the Financed Vehicles, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any insurance of the Financed Vehicles or Obligors or to effect or maintain any such insurance, (C) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any Lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed, or levied against, any part of the Trust, (D) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates of the Servicer delivered to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Owner Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, or (E) to inspect the Financed Vehicles at any time or ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the Transferor's or the Servicer's representations, warranties or covenants or the Servicer's duties and obligations as Servicer and as custodian of the Receivable Files under this Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability shall not be reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Owner Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement except during such time, if any, as the Owner Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers, and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall take no action reasonably likely to impair the security interests created or existing under any Receivable or to impair the value of any Receivable. SECTION 15.03 Accounting and Records to the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall (a) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Trust on a calendar year basis with respect to amounts actually received or disbursed by the Owner Trustee (unless otherwise required by Code Section 706(b)), (b) deliver (or cause to be delivered) to each Residual Interest Holder and each Certificateholder, such information as may be required by the Code, the Internal Revenue Service and applicable Treasury Regulations to enable each Residual Interest Holder and each Certificateholder to prepare its federal, State and local income tax returns, and (c) file or cause to be filed such tax returns relating to the Trust provided to it in execution form, and pursuant to direction of BVAC make such elections, except Form 8832, as may from time to time be requested in connection with any applicable State, federal or local statute or rule or regulation thereunder. The Owner Trustee shall make all elections pursuant to this Section as directed in 87 writing by BVAC. The Owner Trustee shall sign all tax information returns provided to it in execution form pursuant to this Section and any other returns as may be requested by BVAC, and in doing so shall rely entirely upon, and shall have no liability for information provided by, or calculations provided by, BVAC. The Trust shall comply with the provisions in Section 9.09 related to elections under Sections 754 and 1278 of the Code. SECTION 15.04 Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner. (a) The Owner Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust, if any, unless applicable law requires a Residual Interest Holder to sign such documents, in which case, as provided in Section 9.09 hereof such documents shall be signed by BVAC (or the successor Residual Interest Holder holding the largest percentage interest in the partnership) as "tax matter partner." (b) The Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders hereby elect BVAC (or the successor Residual Interest Holder holding the largest percentage interest in the partnership) as the "tax matters partner" of the Trust pursuant to Section 6231 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. SECTION 15.05 Owner Trustee's Certificate. On or as soon as practicable after each Payment Date on which Receivables shall be (i) assigned to BVAC pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof or deemed to be assigned to the Transferor as a result of the application of Available Funds in respect of Charged-Off Receivables pursuant to Sections 9.05 hereof or (ii) assigned to the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof or to the Servicer or any other Person designated by the Servicer pursuant to Section 16.02 hereof, the Owner Trustee shall, at the written request of the Servicer, execute an Owner Trustee's Certificate, substantially in the form of, in the case of an assignment to BVAC, Exhibit A, or, in the case of an assignment to the Servicer, Exhibit B, based on the information contained in the Servicer's Certificate for the related Collection Period, amounts deposited to the Collection Account, and notices received pursuant to this Agreement, identifying the Receivables repurchased or deemed to be repurchased by BVAC pursuant to Sections 7.02 or 8.08 hereof or purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.10 or the Servicer or any other Person designated by the Servicer pursuant to Section 16.02 during such Collection Period, and shall deliver such Owner Trustee's Certificate, accompanied by a copy of the Servicer's Certificate for such Collection Period to BVAC or the Servicer, as the case may be, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee. The Owner Trustee's Certificate shall be an assignment pursuant to Section 15.06 hereof. SECTION 15.06 Trust's Assignment of Purchased Receivables. With respect to each Receivable repurchased by BVAC pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof, or deemed to be so repurchased pursuant to Section 8.08 hereof, purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof or the Servicer or any other Person designated by the Servicer pursuant to Section 16.02 hereof, the Trust shall assign, as of the last day of the Collection Period during which such Receivable became a Charged-Off Receivable or became subject to repurchase by BVAC or purchase by the Servicer or such other Person, without recourse, representation, or warranty, to BVAC, the Servicer or such other Person (as the case may be) all the Trust's right, title, and interest in and to such Receivables, and all security and documents relating thereto, such assignment being an assignment outright and not for security. If in any enforcement suit or legal 88 proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at BVAC's expense, take such steps as the Owner Trustee deems necessary to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in its name and/or the name of the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 15.07 Certain Matters Affecting the Owner Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 15.01: (i) The Owner Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers' Certificate, Servicer's Certificate, certificate of auditors, or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. (ii) The Owner Trustee may consult with counsel and any written advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it under this Agreement in good faith and in accordance with such written advice or Opinion of Counsel. (iii) The Owner Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct, or defend any litigation under this Agreement or in relation to this Agreement, at the request, order, or direction of the Instructing Party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Instructing Party shall have offered to the Owner Trustee reasonable security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Trustee against the costs, expenses, and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby. Nothing contained in this Agreement, however, shall relieve the Owner Trustee of the obligations, upon the occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default (that shall not have been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. (iv) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement. (v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default and after the curing of all Events of Servicer Default that may have occurred, the Owner Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Indenture Trustee or holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes; 89 provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Owner Trustee of the costs, expenses, or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation shall be, in the reasonable business judgment of the Owner Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Owner Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense, or liability as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by BVAC, as initial Servicer, or, if paid by the Owner Trustee, shall be reimbursed by BVAC, as initial Servicer, upon demand. Nothing in this clause (v) shall affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors. (vi) The Owner Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties under this Agreement either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian. The Owner Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence solely attributable to the acts or omissions of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer or custodian or the Administrator. (vii) The Owner Trustee shall have no duty of independent inquiry, except as may be required by Section 15.01 hereof, and the Owner Trustee may rely upon the representations and warranties and covenants of the Transferor and the Servicer contained in this Agreement with respect to the Receivables and the Receivable Files. SECTION 15.08 Owner Trustee Not Liable for the Residual Interest, Certificates or Receivables. The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on a Certificate) shall be taken as the statements of the Transferor or the Servicer, as the case may be, and the Owner Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof. The Owner Trustee shall make no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on a Certificate), or of any Receivable or related document. The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity, and enforceability of any security interest in any Financed Vehicle or any Receivable, or the perfection and priority of such a security interest or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the efficacy of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders under this Agreement or the Indenture, including, without limitation: the existence, condition, location, and ownership of any Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any physical damage insurance, lender's single interest insurance, or credit life or disability and hospitalization insurance with respect to any Receivable; the existence and contents of any Receivable or any computer or other record thereof; the validity of the assignment of any Receivable to the Trust or of any intervening assignment; the completeness of any Receivable; the performance or enforcement of any Receivable; the compliance by the Transferor or the Servicer with any warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in any related document and the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Owner Trustee's receipt of notice or other discovery of any noncompliance therewith or any breach thereof; any investment of monies by the Servicer or any 90 loss resulting therefrom (it being understood that the Owner Trustee shall remain responsible for any Trust Property that it may hold); the acts or omissions of the Transferor, the Servicer, or any Obligor; an action of the Servicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee; or any action by the Owner Trustee taken at the instruction of the Servicer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Owner Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this Agreement. Except with respect to a claim based on the failure of the Owner Trustee to perform its duties under this Agreement or based on the Owner Trustee's negligence or willful misconduct, no recourse shall be had for any claim based on any provision of this Agreement, the Certificateholders, the Residual Interest Holders or the Noteholders, or any Receivable or assignment thereof against the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, the Owner Trustee shall not have any personal obligation, liability, or duty whatsoever to any Certificateholder, any Residual Interest Holders or the Noteholders or any other Person with respect to any such claim, and any such claim shall be asserted solely against the Trust or any indemnitor who shall furnish indemnity as provided in this Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Transferor of any Certificate, Residual Interest or Notes or of the proceeds thereof, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Transferor or the Servicer in respect of the Receivables. SECTION 15.09 Owner Trustee May Own Notes. The Owner Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights as it would have if it were not Owner Trustee. SECTION 15.10 Owner Trustee's and Indenture Trustee's Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) In accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.05(a) of the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall receive as compensation for its services hereunder the Owner Trustee Fee, and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed in accordance with such priorities for its other reasonable expenses incurred 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 and under the Basic Documents, and the Servicer shall pay or reimburse the Owner Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements, and advances (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) incurred or made by the Owner Trustee in accordance with any provisions of this Agreement and the Indenture, except any such expense, disbursement, or advance as may be attributable to its willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. Any amounts paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 15.10 shall be deemed not to be a part of the Trust Property immediately after such payment. The Servicer shall indemnify the Owner Trustee (which, for purposes of this section, shall include its directors, officers, employees, and agents) for and hold it harmless against any loss, liability, or expense incurred without willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Agreement and any Basic Document to which it is a 91 party on behalf of the Trust. The Servicer shall pay the fees and expenses of the Administrator under the Administration Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicer shall only be required to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of any successor Administrator or such other fees agreed to in writing by the Servicer and BVAC. Additionally, the Transferor, pursuant to Section 12.02 and subject to the limitations set forth therein, and the Servicer, pursuant to Section 13.02, respectively, shall indemnify the Owner Trustee with respect to certain matters. The indemnities of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Indenture or the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee. (b) The Servicer hereby agrees to pay or reimburse the fees and reasonable expenses of the Indenture Trustee as provided in Section 6.07 of the Indenture. (c) No successor Servicer (including the Back-up Servicer) shall be obligated to make any payments or indemnities required by this Section 15.10 and instead the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall receive such amounts, to the extent of Available Funds on each Payment Date, in the priorities set forth in Section 8.05(a) of the Indenture. SECTION 15.11 Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee under this Agreement shall at all times be a corporation (i) having an office in the same State as the location of the Corporate Trust Office as specified in this Agreement; (ii) organized and doing business under the laws of such State or the United States of America; (iii) authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers; (iv) having a net worth of at least $50,000,000; (v) subject to supervision or examination by federal or State authorities; and (vi) the long-term unsecured debt of which is rated at least A2 by Moody's and A by Standard & Poor's or which satisfies the Rating Agency Condition. If such corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section 15.11, 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. In case at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 15.11, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 15.12 hereof. SECTION 15.12 Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Servicer (or if Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee), shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee, 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. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.11 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Servicer, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged 92 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, then the initial Servicer (or if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, the Majority Controlling Noteholders) may remove the Owner Trustee. If it shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the initial Servicer (or if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, the Majority Controlling Noteholders) shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 15.12 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 15.13 hereof. SECTION 15.13 Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 15.12 hereof shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Servicer and to the predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon 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. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed hereunder shall file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust with the Delaware Secretary of State reflecting the name and principal place of business of such successor Owner Trustee in the State of Delaware. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements held by it under this Agreement; and the Servicer 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 15.13 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 15.11 hereof. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 15.13, the Servicer shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee under this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee, to each Residual Interest Holder at its address as shown in the Residual Interest Registrar and to each Certificateholder at its address as shown in the Certificate Register. If the Servicer shall fail to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Servicer (or if BVAC is no longer the Servicer, the Owner Trustee shall be reimbursed for such expenses in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.05(a) of the Indenture). SECTION 15.14 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any corporation into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion, or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate 93 trust business of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be eligible pursuant to Section 15.11 hereof, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. SECTION 15.15 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Owner Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Servicer (or if the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, the Majority Controlling Noteholders) 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 Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Residual Interest Holders and the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 15.15, such powers, duties, obligations, rights, and trusts as the Servicer and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in the case an Event of Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing or the Back-up Servicer is then acting as Servicer, 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 15.11 hereof and no notice to the Residual Interest Holders or the Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 15.13 hereof. Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: (i) All rights, powers, duties, and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred 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 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 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; (ii) No trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and (iii) The Servicer and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. 94 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 XV. 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 Servicer. Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by 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 law, without the appointment of a new or successor Owner Trustee. SECTION 15.16 Representations and Warranties of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee makes the following representations and warranties on which the Transferor, the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders and the Secured Parties may rely: (a) Organization and Existence. The Owner Trustee is a national banking corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and authorized to engage in a banking and trust business under such laws. (b) Power and Authority. The Owner Trustee has full power, authority, and legal right to execute, deliver, and perform this Agreement, and shall have taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance by it of this Agreement. (c) Duly Executed. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee and constitutes the legal, valid, and binding agreement of the Owner Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership or other similar laws now or hereinafter in effect relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights in general, as such laws would apply in the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership or similar occurrence affecting the Owner Trustee, and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) as well as concepts of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. 95 ARTICLE XVI TERMINATION SECTION 16.01 Termination of the Trust. (a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Transferor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee created hereby shall terminate and the Trust created by this Agreement shall dissolve upon (i) written notice to the Owner Trustee from the Servicer (or if Back-up Servicer is then acting Servicer, the Transferor) at any time after the disposition of the Trust corpus as of the last day of any Collection Period at the direction of the Servicer, at its option, pursuant to Section 16.02 hereof, or (ii) the payment to all Noteholders and the Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created by this Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the date as of which this Agreement is executed. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee in writing of any prospective termination pursuant to this Section 16.01. (b) Neither the Transferor nor any Certificateholder nor any Residual Interest Holder shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust. (c) Notice of any termination of the Trust, specifying the Payment Date upon which the Certificateholders shall surrender its Certificates to the Indenture Trustee, as paying agent who shall then surrender such Certificates to the Owner Trustee for cancellation, shall be given by the Owner Trustee by letter to the Certificateholders mailed within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice of such termination from the Transferor or Servicer, as the case may be, given pursuant to this Section 16.01 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 Indenture 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, payments 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 and the Residual Interest Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee), and the Indenture Trustee at the time such notice is given to the Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders and to the Residual Interest Holders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 16.02. In the event that a Certificateholder shall not surrender its Certificate for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the above-mentioned written notice, the Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to such Certificateholder to surrender its Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after the second notice, such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of 96 such remedies shall be distributed, subject to applicably escheat laws, by the Indenture Trustee to the Transferor and such Certificateholder shall look solely to the Transferor for payment. (d) Any funds remaining in the Trust, after funds for final distribution have been distributed or set aside for distribution and reasonable provision has been made for known claims and obligations of the Trust, shall be distributed to the Certificateholder to the extent the Certificateholder is entitled to receive such funds pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Indenture, and then the Residual Interest Holders. (e) Upon dissolution and the winding up of the Trust pursuant to Section 16.01(a) hereof, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be canceled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. SECTION 16.02 Optional Disposition of All Receivables. On any Payment Date (after giving effect to any payments to be made on such Payment Date) on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Receivables will be equal to or less than 15% of the Original Pool Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to cause the Owner Trustee to sell (to the Servicer or any other person designated by the Servicer) the corpus of the Trust at the Redemption Price. Any such purchase will be effective as of the end of the Collection Period which relates to the Payment Date on which the repurchase occurs. The proceeds of such sale will be deposited into the Collection Account for distribution in accordance with Section 8.05 of the Indenture on the next succeeding Payment Date. The Servicer shall notify the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee on or before the Determination Date if the aggregate Principal Balance as of the related Payment Date (after giving effect to any payments to be made on such Payment Date) will be less than or equal to 15% of the Original Pool Balance. The Servicer shall notify the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee in writing on or before the applicable Determination Date if the Servicer intends to exercise its option to purchase the corpus of the Trust pursuant to this Section 16.02. Such Redemption Price shall be deposited to the Collection Account in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Payment Date and, upon notice to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of such deposit, whereupon the Notes, the Residual Interest and the Certificates shall no longer evidence any right or interest in the Receivables or any proceeds thereof. The fair market value of the outstanding Receivables for purposes of this Section 16.02 shall be an amount equal to the average of the bid prices for such assets taken as a whole, provided to the Servicer by two independent, nationally recognized dealers in automobile loans substantially similar to the Receivables. ARTICLE XVII MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS SECTION 17.01 Amendment. (a) This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Issuer, the Transferor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with the consent of the Majority Controlling Noteholders (which consent given 97 pursuant to this Section or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on such Holders and on all future Holders of such Notes and of any Notes issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange thereof or in lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Notes) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Notes; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) 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 Receivables or payments that shall be required to be made on any Note, the Residual Interest or Certificate or change the applicable interest rate payable on any Note, the Residual Interest or Certificate or the Certificate Pass Through Rate without the consent of each Noteholder, Residual Interest Holder and Certificateholder affected thereby and the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Note Balance required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all Notes then outstanding or eliminate the right of the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holder or the Certificateholders to consent to any change described in clause (a) affecting the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holder or the Certificateholders without the consent of the Noteholders, the Residual Interest Holder or the Certificateholders, as applicable, or (c) result in a downgrade or withdrawal of the then current rating of the Notes by either of the Rating Agencies without the consent of all the Noteholders; provided, further that this Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Issuer, the Transferor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee for any of the following purposes: (x) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time conveyed to the Issuer hereunder, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the property conveyed pursuant hereto; (y) to add to the covenants of the Transferor, BVAC, the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, or (z) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement; provided that such action pursuant to this subclause (z) shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of the Notes, as evidenced by satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise. (d) [Reserved]. (e) [Reserved]. (f) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Residual Interest Holders, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders pursuant to this Section 17.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Certificateholders or the Residual Interest Holders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe. (g) Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. SECTION 17.02 Protection of Title to Trust. (a) Each of the Transferor and BVAC, as to itself, shall file such financing statements and cause to be filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain, and protect the interest of the Noteholders, to the extent expressly set forth herein or the other Basic Documents, and the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables and in the proceeds thereof and the sale of accounts and chattel paper. Each of the Transferor and BVAC, as to itself, shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. (b) Neither BVAC nor the Transferor shall change its name, identity, or corporate structure in any manner that would, could, or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by the Transferor or BVAC in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9-507 of the UCC, unless it shall have given the Indenture Trustee at least 60 days' prior written notice thereof and shall have promptly filed appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements and shall have delivered an Opinion of Counsel (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables and the other Trust Property, and reciting the details of such filings or 99 (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest. (c) Each of the Transferor and BVAC shall give the Indenture Trustee at least 60 days' prior written notice of any relocation of its principal executive office, or State of incorporation, if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement and shall promptly file any such amendment and shall have delivered an Opinion of Counsel (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables and the other Trust Property, and reciting the details of such filings or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest. The Servicer shall at all times maintain each office from which it shall service Receivables, and its principal executive office, within the United States of America. (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 sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to the Trust, the Servicer's master computer records (including any back-up archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly (including by means of tagging) the interest of the Trust in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Trust. Indication of the Trust's ownership of a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on the Servicer's computer systems when, and only when, the Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased.
