ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS OF THE SELLER

4.1    Protection of Right, Title and Interest.

(a)    The Seller shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the Purchaser in the Receivables and the other Purchased Assets (other than any such Purchased Assets, to the extent that the interest of the Purchaser therein cannot be perfected by the filing of a financing statement). The Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Purchaser file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing.

(b)    The Seller shall notify the Purchaser within 30 days after any change of its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by the Seller in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of Sections 9-506 and 9-507 of the UCC, and shall promptly file appropriate additional financing statements and amendments to previously filed financing statements or continuation statements.

(c)    The Seller shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of sale hereunder of the Receivables to the Purchaser, the Seller’s master computer records that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the interest of the Purchaser in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Purchaser.

(d)    If at any time the Seller shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in automotive receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Seller shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records or print-outs that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Purchaser (or any subsequent assignee of the Purchaser).

(NAROT 2020-A Purchase Agreement)

4.2    Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances and grants of security interests hereunder and contemplated pursuant to this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, the Seller shall not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any interest therein, and the Seller shall defend the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under such Receivables against all claims of third parties claiming through or under the Seller; provided, however, that the Seller’s obligations under this Section 4.2 shall terminate upon the termination of the Issuer pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Trust Agreement.

4.3    Repurchase Events and Seller’s Assignment of Repurchased Receivables.

(a)    The Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall inform the other party to this Agreement promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.2(b) that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Securityholders in any Receivable; provided, that delivery of the Servicer’s Certificate by the Servicer shall be deemed to constitute prompt written notice by the Purchaser of such breach. If the breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Securityholders in such Receivable, then the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall either (a) correct or cure such breach or (b) repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer or the Purchaser, as the case may be, in either case on or before the Distribution Date following the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if the Seller or the Purchaser elects, an earlier date) after the date that the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, became aware or was notified of such breach. Any such breach shall be deemed not to have a material and adverse effect if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of the Issuer to receive and retain timely payment in full of such Receivable. In consideration of the purchase of the Receivables, the Seller shall remit (or cause to be remitted) the Repurchase Payment to the Purchaser concurrently with the Purchaser’s repurchase of the related Receivable from the Issuer in the manner specified in Section 5.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon payment of such Repurchase Payment by the Seller, the Purchaser shall release and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as shall be reasonably requested of it to vest in the Seller or its designee any Receivable and any related Purchased Assets repurchased pursuant hereto. The sole remedy of the Purchaser, the Indenture Trustee (by operation of the assignment of the Purchaser’s rights hereunder pursuant to the Indenture), or any Securityholder with respect to a breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.2(b), shall be to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section.

(b)    With respect to all Receivables repurchased by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser (without the need of any further written assignment) shall assign hereby, without recourse, representation or warranty (other than that it has good and marketable title to such Receivables), to the Seller all the Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables, and all security and documents relating thereto.

(iii)    The possession by the Purchaser or its agent of the Receivable Files and any other property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by the purchaser or a person designated by such purchaser, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; and

(iv)    Notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.

5.11    No Petition. Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall not, prior to the date which is one year and one day after payment in full of all obligations of each Bankruptcy Remote Party in respect of all securities issued by any Bankruptcy Remote Party, acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause such Bankruptcy Remote Party to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against such Bankruptcy Remote Party under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of such Bankruptcy Remote Party or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.
