the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Sponsor, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Owner Trustee. Nothing in this Agreement will make the Asset Representations Reviewer and any of the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Sponsor, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Owner Trustee members of any partnership, joint venture or other separate entity or impose any liability as such on any of them.

ARTICLE III.

DUTIES OF THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 3.01 Review Scope.

The parties confirm that the Asset Representations Review is not responsible for (a) reviewing the Receivables for compliance with the representations and warranties under the Transaction Documents, except as described in this Agreement or (b) determining whether noncompliance with the representations and warranties constitutes a breach of the Eligibility Representations. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties confirm that the Asset Review is not designed to determine why an Obligor is delinquent or the creditworthiness of the Obligor, either at the time of any Asset Review or at the time of origination of the related Receivable. Further, the Asset Review is not designed to establish cause, materiality or recourse for any Test Fail (as defined in Section 3.05).

Section 3.02 Review Notices.

Upon receipt of (i) a Review Notice from the Indenture Trustee in accordance with Section 7.6(b) of the Indenture and (ii) the Review Materials in accordance with Section 3.03 of this Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will start an Asset Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be obligated to begin, and may not begin, an Asset Review until the Asset Representations Reviewer receives a Review Notice. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a Review Notice, the Servicer shall provide the list of Subject Receivables to the Asset Representations Reviewer in electronic format or such other format selected by the Servicer to the address specified in Section 9.02.

None of the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Servicer, the Sponsor or the Asset Representations Reviewer is obligated to verify whether the Indenture Trustee properly determined that a Review Notice was required. None of the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Sponsor or the Asset Representations Reviewer is obligated to verify the accuracy or completeness of the list of Subject Receivables provided by the Servicer.

Section 3.03 Review Materials.

The Servicer will provide reasonable assistance to the Asset Representations Reviewer to facilitate the Asset Review. Within sixty (60) days of receipt by the Servicer of the Review Notice, the Servicer will provide the Asset Representations Reviewer with the Review Materials for all Subject Receivables in one or more of the following ways, as elected by the Servicer: (i) by providing access to the Servicer’s receivables system, either remotely or at one or more of the properties of the Servicer; (ii) by electronic posting of Review Materials to a password-protected

Asset Representations Review Agreement

(BLAST 2023-1)


website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access; (iii) by providing originals or photocopies at one or more of the properties of the Servicer where the Receivable Files are located; (iv) by providing an encrypted disk to the Asset Representations Reviewer’s address specified in Section 9.02; or (v) in another manner agreed to by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Servicer may redact or remove Personally Identifiable Information from the Review Materials so long as such redaction or removal does not result in a change in the meaning or usefulness of the Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be liable for any failure of the Review Materials to be accurate and complete, including any failure that results in the Review Materials being misleading in any material respect.

Section 3.04 Missing or Incomplete Review Materials.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Tests for each Eligibility Representation only using documentation that is made available to it. Upon receipt of the Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will review the Review Materials to determine if any of the Review Materials are missing, incomplete or otherwise insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test. If the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any of the Review Materials are missing or insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer promptly, and in any event no less than twenty (20) days before completing the Review, and the Servicer will use reasonable efforts to provide the Asset Representations Reviewer access to such missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct the insufficiency within fifteen (15) calendar days of receiving such notice. Once the Asset Representations Reviewer has confirmed the majority of the Review Materials have been provided in accordance with Section 3.03, the Asset Representations Reviewer will commence the Asset Review. In instances where Review Material is not accessible, clearly unidentifiable, and/or illegible, the Asset Representations Reviewer will request that the Servicer (with a copy to the Sponsor) provide an updated copy of such Review Material.

If the Servicer and the Sponsor have not provided the missing Review Material for a Subject Receivable to the Asset Representations Reviewer within sixty (60) days of notification by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the parties agree that such Subject Receivable will have a Test Incomplete for the related Test(s) and the Review Report will indicate the reason for the Test Incomplete.

Section 3.05 The Asset Review.

For an Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform for each Subject Receivable the applicable procedures listed under “Tests” in Exhibit A for each Eligibility Representation. In the course of its review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will use the Review Materials listed in Exhibit A. For each Test and Subject Receivable, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”), if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”) or if the Test could not be concluded as a result of missing or incomplete Review Materials (a “Test Incomplete”).

Asset Representations Review Agreement

(BLAST 2023-1)


If a Subject Receivable was included in a prior Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not conduct additional Tests on any such duplicate Subject Receivable unless such Subject Receivable was deemed a Test Incomplete as a result of the failure of the Servicer and the Sponsor to provide missing Review Materials for such Subject Receivable and the Sponsor elects to have such Subject Receivable included in the current Asset Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will include the previously reported Test results for any such duplicate Subject Receivable within the Review Report for the current Asset Review.

Section 3.06 Review Period.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Review within sixty (60) days of receiving access to the Review Materials in accordance with Section 3.03 (such time period, the “Review Period”); provided, that if additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer as described in Section 3.04, the Review Period will be extended for an additional thirty (30) days from the date it receives such additional Review Materials.

Section 3.07 Review Report.

Within ten (10) Business Days following the end of the applicable Review Period described in Section 3.06, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Sponsor, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee with (i) a report (a “Review Report”) specifying for each Subject Receivable whether there was a Test Pass, a Test Fail, a Test Incomplete (as contemplated by Section 3.05) or a Test Complete (as contemplated by Section 3.08) for each Test and Subject Receivable and (ii) the related Review Invoice. The Review Report will include a summary of the findings and conclusions of the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the Asset Review to be included in the Form 10-D for the Issuer for the Collection Period in which the Review Report is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that the Review Report does not contain any Personally Identifiable Information. Upon reasonable request of the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide additional detail regarding the Test results. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to forward the Review Report to any Noteholder or any other person.

Section 3.08 Completion of Review for Certain Subject Receivables.

Following the delivery of the list of the Subject Receivables and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a Subject Receivable is paid in full by or on behalf of the Obligor or purchased from the Grantor Trust by the Sponsor in accordance with the Transaction Documents. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of such Receivables and the Asset Review of such Receivables will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”). In this case, the Review Report will indicate a Test Complete for the Receivables and the related reason.

Section 3.09 Termination of Review.

If an Asset Review is in process and the Notes will be paid in full on the next Payment Date (including any payment in full as a result of any early redemption of the Notes), the Servicer will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Indenture Trustee no less than ten (10) days before that Payment Date. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Asset Review immediately and will not be obligated to deliver a Review Report.

requests or inquiries, made by any Person not party to this Agreement other than the Indenture Trustee; provided, that if the Asset Representations Reviewer receives any request or inquiry from a Person not a party to this Agreement, then the Asset Representations Reviewer may inform such Person that they may contact the Servicer and/or the Indenture Trustee with respect to such request or inquiry.

Section 3.13 Dispute Resolution.

If a Subject Receivable that was reviewed by the Asset Representations Reviewer during an Asset Review is the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 3.7 of the Purchase Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of a party to the proceeding. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable compensation of the Asset Representations Reviewer for its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the Requesting Party for the dispute resolution and (subject to Section 4.03) will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the mediator or arbitrator for the dispute resolution according to Section 3.7 of the Purchase Agreement.

Section 3.14 Records Retention.

At the expiration of the retention period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall destroy or, at the Servicer’s option upon its written request, and as mutually agreed by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer, return all Client Records to the Servicer in electronic format or, to the extent held in tangible form, in that form. Upon the return or destruction of the Client Records, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no obligation to retain such Client Records or to respond to inquiries concerning any Asset Review.

   8   

Asset Representations Review Agreement

(BLAST 2023-1)


Section 6.02, then the Asset Representations Reviewer shall refund to the Sponsor the portion of the Annual ARR Fee attributable to the portion of the annual period during which Clayton will no longer act as the Asset Representations Reviewer, assuming for purposes of such calculation that the Annual ARR Fee for each day during the annual period is an amount equal to the Annual ARR Fee divided by 365. To the extent not paid by the Sponsor within sixty (60) days of any annual due date of an Annual ARR Fee, the Annual ARR Fee shall be paid by the Issuer pursuant to the priority of payments sets forth in Section 4.4 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 5.4(b) of the Indenture, as applicable.

However, no Review Fee will be charged for any Subject Receivable which was included in a prior Asset Review or for which no Tests were completed prior to the Asset Representations Reviewer being notified of a termination of the Asset Review according to Section 3.09. To the extent not paid by the Sponsor and outstanding for at least sixty (60) days after receipt by the Indenture Trustee, the Sponsor, the Servicer, the Grantor Trust and the Issuer of the Review Invoice, the Review Fee shall be paid by the Issuer pursuant to the priority of payments sets forth in Section 4.4 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 5.4(b) of the Indenture, as applicable.

Section 4.03 Dispute Resolution Expenses.

If the Asset Representations Reviewer participates in a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 3.13 and its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable compensation for the time it incurs in participating in the proceeding are not paid by a party to the dispute resolution within ninety (90) days of the end of the proceeding, the Sponsor will reimburse the Asset Representations Reviewer for such expenses upon receipt of a detailed invoice.
