     SECTION 2.2. Office. The office of the Issuer shall be in care of the Owner Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or at such other address as the Owner Trustee may designate by written notice to the Residual Interestholder, the Seller, the Insurer and the Administrator.

     SECTION 2.3. Purposes and Powers. The purpose of the Issuer is, and the Issuer shall have the power and authority, to engage in the following activities:

          (a) to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and to issue the Certificates, pursuant to this Agreement, and to sell, transfer and exchange the Notes and the Certificates and to pay interest on and principal of the Notes and distributions to the Residual Interestholder, if any;

          (b) to enter into and perform its obligations under any interest rate protection agreement or agreements relating to the Notes between the Issuer and one or more counterparties, including any confirmations, evidencing the transactions thereunder, each of which is an interest rate swap, an interest rate cap, an obligation to enter into any of the foregoing, or any combination of any of the foregoing;

          (c) to acquire the property and assets set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement from the Seller pursuant to the terms thereof, to make deposits to and withdrawals from the Collection Account, the Note Distribution Account, the Reserve Account, the Capitalized Interest Account and the Pre-Funding Account and to pay the organizational, start-up and transactional expenses of the Issuer;

          (d) to assign, grant, transfer, pledge, mortgage and convey the Trust Estate pursuant to the Indenture and to hold, manage and distribute to the Residual Interestholder any portion of the Trust Estate released from the lien of, and remitted to the Issuer pursuant to, the Indenture;

          (e) to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party;

and the making of distributions to the Residual Interestholder, if any, the Insurer and the Noteholders; and

          (h) at any time with the prior consent of the Insurer, enter into derivatives transactions.

     The Owner Trustee is hereby authorized to engage in the foregoing activities on behalf of the Issuer. In addition, the Administrator shall have the authority to engage in certain activities on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the Administration Agreement. Neither the Issuer nor the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or other than as required or authorized by the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

     SECTION 2.4. Appointment of the Owner Trustee. The Seller hereby appoints the Owner Trustee as trustee of the Issuer effective as of the date hereof, to have all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein.

     SECTION 2.5. Initial Capital Contribution of Trust Estate. As of the date of the Original Trust Agreement, the Seller sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed and set over to the Owner Trustee the sum of $1. The Owner Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt in trust from the Seller, as of such date, of the foregoing contribution, which shall constitute the initial Trust Estate and shall be deposited in the Collection Account.

     SECTION 2.6. Declaration of Trust. The Owner Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Residual Interestholder, subject to the obligations of the Issuer under the Transaction Documents. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Issuer constitute a statutory trust under the Statutory Trust Act and that this Agreement constitute the governing instrument of such statutory trust. It is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for income and franchise tax purposes, the Issuer will be disregarded as an entity separate from the Seller, the Seller will be disregarded as an entity separate from Santander Consumer USA Inc. and the Notes will be characterized as debt. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Issuer will not file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the characterization of the Issuer as an entity separate from its owner. In the event that the Issuer is deemed to have more than one beneficial owner for federal income tax purposes, the Issuer and the Residual Interestholders will file returns, reports and other forms consistent with the characterization of the Issuer as a partnership, and this Agreement shall be amended in accordance with Section 11.1 to include such provisions as may be required under Subchapter K of the Code. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Statutory Trust Act with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Issuer. The Owner Trustee filed a certificate of trust dated March 2, 2007 (the “Certificate of Trust”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as required by Section 3810(a) of the Statutory Trust Act. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Statutory Trust Act to the contrary, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the Issuer constitute a “business trust” within the meaning of Section 101(9)(A)(v) of the Bankruptcy Code.

     SECTION 2.7. Organizational Expenses; Liabilities of the Holders.

          (a) Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall pay organizational expenses of the Issuer as they may arise.

          (b) No Residual Interestholder (including the Seller) shall have any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Issuer.

     SECTION 2.8. Title to the Trust Estate. Legal title to all of the Trust Estate shall be vested at all times in the Issuer as a separate legal entity except where applicable law in any jurisdiction requires title to any part of the Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Owner Trustee or a separate trustee, as the case may be. The Holders shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Estate. The Holders shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to their beneficial ownership interest therein only in accordance with Article IV of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Article IX hereof. No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any right, title or interest by any Residual Interestholder of its ownership interest in the Trust Estate shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part of the Trust Estate.

     SECTION 2.9. Representations and Warranties of the Seller. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Insurer that:

          (a) Organization and Good Standing. The Seller is a Delaware limited liability company duly organized and validly existing with power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently conducted and is proposed to be conducted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

          (b) Due Qualification. The Seller is duly qualified to do business as a limited liability company in good standing, and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property, the conduct of its business and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents requires such qualification.

          (c) Power and Authority. The Seller has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to carry out their respective terms; the Seller has full power and authority to sell and assign the property to be sold and assigned to and deposited with the Issuer and the Seller has duly authorized such sale and assignment and deposit to the Issuer by all necessary action; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by the Seller by all necessary action.

          (d) Enforceability. The Seller has (i) duly executed and delivered this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the Underwriting Agreement; and (ii) this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the Underwriting Agreement constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of

the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with their terms, and subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (whether applied in a proceeding at law or in equity).

          (e) No Consent Required. No consent, license, approval or authorization or registration or declaration with, any Person or with any governmental authority, bureau or agency is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, except for such as have been obtained, effected or made.

          (f) No Violation. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Underwriting Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof do not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the limited liability company agreement of the Seller, or any material indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents); nor violate any law or any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Seller of any court or of any federal or State regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Seller or its properties.

          (g) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over it or its properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect its performance of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; or (iv) seeking to adversely affect the federal income tax or other federal, state or local tax attributes of the Securities.

     SECTION 2.10. Situs of Issuer. The Issuer shall be located and administered in the State of Delaware or, with respect to duties performed by the Administrator, in the State of Texas. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall be located in the State of Delaware or the State of Minnesota. The Issuer shall not have any employees in any state; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit the Owner Trustee from having employees within or without the State of Delaware. Payments will be received by the Issuer only in Delaware or Minnesota and payments will be made by the Issuer only from Minnesota or New York.

     SECTION 2.11. Federal Income Tax Treatment of the Issuer.

          (a) For so long as the Issuer has a single owner for federal income tax purposes, it will, pursuant to Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 7701 of the Code, be disregarded as an entity distinct from the Residual Interestholder for all federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, for federal income tax purposes, the Residual Interestholder will be treated as: (i) owning all assets owned by the Issuer; (ii) having incurred all liabilities incurred by the Issuer; and (iii) all transactions between the Issuer and the Residual Interestholder will be disregarded.

          (b) Neither the Owner Trustee, the Administrator nor any Residual Interestholder will, under any circumstances, and at any time, make an election on IRS Form 8832 or otherwise, to classify the Issuer as an association taxable as a corporation for federal, State or any other applicable tax purpose.

     SECTION 2.12. Covenants of the Residual Interestholders. Each Residual Interestholder by becoming a beneficial owner of the Residual Interest agrees:

          (a) to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Certificates to the extent the Residual Interest of which such Certificateholder is the beneficial owner is certificated and to perform the obligations of a Residual Interestholder as set forth therein; this undertaking is made for the benefit of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer (so long as it is the Controlling Party) and all other Residual Interestholders present and future.

          (b) to the appointment of the Seller as such Residual Interestholder’s agent and attorney-in-fact to sign any federal income tax information return filed on behalf of the Issuer and, if requested by the Issuer, to sign such federal income tax information return in its capacity as holder of an interest in the Issuer.

          (c) that all transactions and agreements between the Issuer on the one hand, and any of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, the Administrator and any Residual Interestholder on the other hand, shall reflect the separate legal existence of each entity and will be formally documented in writing.

          (d) not to take any position in such Residual Interestholder’s tax returns inconsistent with those taken in any tax returns filed by the Issuer.

          (e) if such Residual Interestholder is other than an individual or other entity holding its Certificate through a broker who reports securities sales on Form 1099-B, to notify the Owner Trustee in writing of any transfer by it of a Certificate in a taxable sale or exchange, within 30 days of the date of the transfer.

          (f) Except in accordance with Section 4.3, until one year and one day after the completion of the events specified in Section 9.2, each Residual Interestholder agrees not, for any reason, to institute proceedings for the Issuer or the Seller to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Issuer or the Seller, or file a petition seeking or consenting to reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or State law relating to bankruptcy,

or consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or the Seller or a substantial part of its property, or cause or permit the Issuer or the Seller to make any assignment for the benefit of its creditors or to admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or declare or effect a moratorium on its debt or take any action in furtherance of any such action.

ARTICLE III

RESIDUAL INTEREST AND TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATES

     SECTION 3.1. Initial Ownership. As of the Closing Date, the Residual Interest shall be certificated and will be issued in the form of a typewritten Certificate representing a definitive Certificate and shall be registered in the name of “Santander Drive Auto Receivables LLC” as the initial registered owner thereof. On the Closing Date, the Residual Interest shall be assigned to Drive Residual Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“DRHLP”), an Affiliate of the Seller, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Residual Asset Conveyance Agreement dated as of the Closing Date among the Seller, Santander Consumer USA Inc. and DRHLP (the “Initial Assignment”). The requirements of Section 3.5, other than Section 3.5(b), shall not be applicable to the Initial Assignment.

     SECTION 3.2. Authentication of the Certificates.

          (a) The Seller, in its sole discretion, may request the Owner Trustee to issue a Certificate or Certificates to represent the Residual Interest. Upon request by the Seller pursuant to this Section 3.2(a), the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificates to be executed on behalf of the Issuer, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Seller, signed by its chairman of the board, its president, its chief financial officer, its chief accounting officer, any vice president, its secretary, any assistant secretary, its treasurer or any assistant treasurer, without further corporate action by the Seller.

          (b) To the extent the Residual Interest is certificated, the Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Issuer, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates. A transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Residual Interestholder hereunder, upon due registration of such Certificate in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.4.

     SECTION 3.3. [Reserved]

     SECTION 3.4. Registration of the Residual Interests. U.S. Bank Trust National Association shall be the initial certificate registrar (the “Certificate Registrar”). The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the Corporate Trust Office, a certificate register (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of Residual Interests and of transfers and exchanges of Residual Interests as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar shall provide the Indenture Trustee and the Controlling Party with a list of the names and addresses of the Residual Interestholders 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 Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Controlling Party of the name and address of the transferee in writing, by facsimile, on the day of such transfer.

     SECTION 3.5. Transfer of the Certificate. (a) The Certificateholder may assign, convey or otherwise transfer all or any of its right, title and interest in the Certificate; provided, that (i) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied and the Insurer has given its prior written consent (other than: (1) to Drive Residual Holdings LP; (2) pursuant to the Credit Agreement (as defined in the reimbursement agreement relating to the initial Reserve Account Letter of Credit); (3) in connection with the exercise of remedies by the secured party under the Credit Agreement; and (4) in connection with the issuance of any Reserve Account Letter of Credit issued by a financial institution previously approved by the Insurer), (ii) the Owner Trustee, the Insurer and the Issuer receive an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such transfer will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership for federal income tax purposes, (iii) the Certificate may not be acquired by or for the account of or with the assets of (a) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provision of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or other plan’s investment in the entity and (iv) if the Certificateholder is a governmental plan, certain church plan or foreign plan, it shall be deemed to represent, warrant and covenant that its acquisition, holding and disposition of the Certificate or interest therein will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under, or a violation of, any applicable law that is substantially similar to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code; provided, further, that the number of Certificateholders at no time may exceed 95 as determined for tax purposes under Section 7704 of the Code and that the transfer of the Certificate to such transferee will not result in the Issuer becoming a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Subject to the transfer restrictions contained herein and in the Certificate, the Certificateholder may transfer all or any portion of the beneficial interest in the Issuer evidenced by such Certificate upon surrender thereof to the Owner Trustee accompanied by the documents required by this Section. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office, the Owner Trustee shall record the name of such transferee as a Certificateholder and its percentage of beneficial interest in the Issuer in the Certificate Register and shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like class and aggregate face amount dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office.

          (b)      (i) Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange may be made by the registered Certificateholder in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing upon surrender of the Certificate to the Owner Trustee accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Certificate Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in STAMP or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Certificate Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, and evidence of authority of the Persons signing the instrument of transfer as the Owner Trustee may reasonably require; provided, however, no signature guarantee shall be required for the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller. In the event a transferor transfers only a portion of its beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee shall register and issue to such transferor a new Certificate evidencing such transferor’s new percentage of beneficial interest in the issuer. Subsequent to a transfer and upon the issuance of the new Certificate or Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall cancel and destroy the Certificate surrendered to it in connection with such transfer. The Owner Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the sole owner of the beneficial interest in the Issuer evidenced by such Certificate.

               (ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates under this Section 3.5, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover the payment of any tax or taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

          (c) The Owner Trustee shall not be obligated to register any transfer of a Residual Interest unless each of the transferor and the transferee have certified to the Owner Trustee that such transfer does not violate any of the transfer restrictions stated herein. The Owner Trustee shall not be liable to any Person for registering any transfer based on such certifications.

          (d) No transfer (or purported transfer) of a Certificate (or economic interest therein), whether to a Certificateholder or to a person who is not a Certificateholder, shall be effective, and any such transfer (or purported transfer) shall be void ab initio, and no person shall otherwise become a Certificateholder, and none of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or any of the Residual Interestholders will recognize such transfer (or purported transfer), unless the transferee has first represented and warranted in writing to the Issuer and the Residual Interestholders that:

               (i) it is acquiring the Certificates for its own account and is the sole beneficial owner of such Certificates;

               (ii) it is not a Benefit Plan;

               (iii) the transfer is not being effected on or through (x) an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(a)(1) of the Code,

including without limitation, an over-the-counter market or an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations or (y) a “secondary market” or “substantial equivalent thereof” within the meaning of Section 7704(a)(2) of the Code and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury regulations thereunder; and

               (iv) such transfer will not cause the Issuer to be classified as a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and such purchaser or transferee will not take any action, including any subsequent disposition of such Certificates or economic interest therein, that would cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

          (e) The Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act or any State securities laws. The Certificate Registrar shall not register the transfer of any Certificate or unless such resale or transfer is: (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) to the Seller; or (iii) unless it shall have received a representation letter or such other representations and an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Seller and, prior to the Termination Date, the Controlling Party, to the effect that such resale or transfer is made (A) in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable State securities laws or (B) to a Person who the transferor of the Certificate reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act) that is aware that such resale or other transfer is being made in reliance upon Rule 144A.

Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.6, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar 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 3.6 shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Issuer, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

The Owner Trustee shall cause to be furnished to the Servicer or the Seller and, prior to the Termination Date, the Controlling Party, within 15 days after receipt by the Owner Trustee of a request therefor from such Person in writing, a list of the names and addresses of the Residual Interestholders as of the most recent Record Date.

Each Residual Interestholder, by holding a Residual Interest, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Seller, the Servicer, the Controlling Party or the Owner Trustee or any agent thereof accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

     SECTION 3.8. Persons Deemed Residual Interestholder. Every Person by virtue of becoming a Residual Interestholder in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Insurer and any agent of the Owner Trustee, the Insurer and the Certificate Registrar, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate with respect to the right to direct the Owner Trustee hereunder, for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Insurer or the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of the Owner Trustee, the Insurer or the Certificate Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary .

The Owner Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action as the Controlling Party shall direct in writing with respect to the Transaction Documents so long as such activities are consistent with the terms of the Transaction Documents. The Controlling Party hereby agrees not to instruct the Owner Trustee to take any action which is inconsistent with or in violation of the terms of the Transaction Documents.

     SECTION 6.2. General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to do the following:

     (a) The Owner Trustee shall discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to administer the Issuer in the interest of the Holders and the Controlling Party, subject to the Transaction Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Owner Trustee shall have no duties and responsibilities hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents with respect to a matter to the extent that this Agreement, the Administration Agreement or any other Transaction Document provides that the Administrator is to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Issuer hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement and shall have no duty to monitor the performance of the Administrator or any other Person under the Administration Agreement or any other document and (ii) the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to the extent that it has contracted with a third party acceptable to the Controlling Party to discharge such duties and responsibilities (whether pursuant to the Administration Agreement or otherwise). The Servicer, the Administrator, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Seller shall all be deemed acceptable to the Controlling Party. In the event that the Administrator is removed or resigns, the Owner Trustee shall have no obligation to

perform the duties of the Administrator or any duties of the Issuer that are not expressly designated as duties of the Owner Trustee hereunder. The Owner Trustee shall have no obligation to administer, service or collect the Contracts or to maintain, monitor or otherwise supervise the administration, servicing or collection of the Contracts .

     (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 other Transaction Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Residual Interestholders (and, prior to the Termination Date, the Controlling Party) requesting instruction from them 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 Controlling 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 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 other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Residual Interestholders and the Controlling Party, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

     (d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the

circumstances) to the Residual Interestholders (and prior to the Termination Date, the Controlling Party) requesting instruction from them as to the application of such provision and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction of the Controlling Party 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 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 other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Residual Interestholders and the Controlling Party, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

     SECTION 6.4. No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Issuer or the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document against the Owner Trustee.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to the Insurer, the Owner Trustee undertakes to perform or observe only such of the covenants and obligations of the Owner Trustee as are expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the Insurer shall be read into this Agreement against the Owner Trustee.

     SECTION 6.5. No Action Except under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3.

     SECTION 6.6. Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Issuer set forth in Section 2.3 or (ii) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result in the Issuer’s becoming taxable as a corporation

for federal income tax purposes. The Residual Interestholder and the Insurer shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section.

     SECTION 7.5. Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as provided in this Article VII, in accepting the trusts hereby created, U.S. Bank Trust National Association acts solely as the

The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, the Residual Interests (other than the signature and countersignature of the Owner Trustee on the Certificates), the Notes or of any Contract or related documents. The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to: (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of any Contract; (b) the perfection and priority of any security interest created by any Contract in any Financed Vehicle or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority; (c) with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Residual Interestholders under this Agreement or the Noteholders under the Indenture, including, in each case (a), (b) and (c), (i) the existence, condition and ownership of any Financed Vehicle, (ii) the existence and enforceability of any insurance thereon, (iii) the existence and contents of any Contract on any computer or other record thereof, (iv) the validity of the assignment of any Contract to the Issuer or of any intervening assignment, (v) the completeness of any Contract, (vi) the performance or enforcement of any Contract, or (vii) the compliance by the Seller, the Servicer or any other Person with any warranty or representation made under any Transaction Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation or any action of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, the Backup Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

accordance with Section 10.5: (a) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or the giving of notice to, or the registration with or the taking of any other action in respect of, any State or other governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (b) result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of the State of Delaware becoming payable by U.S. Bank Trust National Association (or any successor thereto); or (c) subject U.S. Bank Trust National Association (or any successor thereto) to personal jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by U.S. Bank Trust National Association (or any successor thereto) or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE X

SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL

OWNER TRUSTEES

     SECTION 10.1. Eligibility Requirements for the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall at all times be a corporation or other institution: (i) satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Act; (ii) authorized to exercise corporate trust powers; (iii) having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities; provided, however, the net worth of the parent organization of such corporation shall be included in the determination of the combined capital and surplus of such corporation; and (iv) prior to the Termination Date, acceptable to the Insurer, so long as it is the Controlling Party. If such corporation or other institution 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, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or other institution 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, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.2.

     SECTION 10.2. Resignation or Removal of the 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 Seller, the Controlling Party and the Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Seller shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee which satisfies the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 10.1 acceptable to the Controlling Party 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 or, prior to the Termination Date, the Controlling Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee acceptable to the Controlling Party; provided, however, that such right to appoint or to petition for the appointment of any such successor shall in no event relieve the resigning Owner Trustee from any obligations otherwise imposed on it under the Transaction Documents until such successor has in fact assumed such appointment.

     If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Seller with the prior written consent of the Insurer, so long as it is the Controlling Party, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, prior to the Termination Date, the Insurer, so long as it is the Controlling Party, or the Seller with, prior to the Termination Date, the consent of the Insurer, so long as it is the Controlling Party, may remove the Owner Trustee. If the Seller

or the Controlling Party shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller shall, or the Controlling Party may, promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee acceptable to the Controlling Party by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed, one copy to the Controlling Party, one copy to the successor Owner Trustee and shall pay all fees owed to the outgoing 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 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.3 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Seller shall provide (or shall cause to be provided) notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to the Rating Agencies and the Insurer.

     SECTION 10.3. Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Seller, the Administrator, the Controlling Party, the Servicer and to its 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. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Seller and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Administrator shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee to all Residual Interestholders, the Trustee, the Controlling Party, the Noteholders, the Servicer and the Rating Agencies. If the Administrator 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 Administrator.

     SECTION 10.4. Merger or Consolidation of the 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 trust business of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder; provided such corporation shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1, 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; provided further that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Seller, the Administrator, the Controlling Party and the Rating Agencies.

     SECTION 10.5. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate 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 Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Servicer 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 and the Controlling Party to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Issuer, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, 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, the Owner Trustee 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 trustee pursuant to Section 10.1 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.3.

     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 Issuer 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 Seller and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

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

     (c) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Residual Interestholder, the Insurer (so long as it is the Controlling Party) and the Indenture Trustee.

     (d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Residual Interestholders, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

     (e) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Insurer (so long as it is the Controlling Party) shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement, that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied and that any such amendment would not result in the Issuer becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

     SECTION 11.2. No Legal Title to Trust Estate in Residual Interestholder. The Residual Interestholder shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Estate. The Residual Interestholder shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to its undivided beneficial interest therein only in accordance with Articles V and IX.

Any notice so mailed within the time prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Residual Interestholder receives such notice.

     SECTION 11.5. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     (a) Each of the Owner Trustee (in its individual capacity and as the Owner Trustee), by entering into this Agreement, the Seller, the Residual Interestholder, by accepting the Residual Interest, and the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder or Note Owner by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, hereby covenants and agrees that 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 the Bankruptcy Remote Parties (i) such party shall not authorize any Bankruptcy Remote Party to commence a voluntary winding-up or other voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to such Bankruptcy Remote Party or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction or seeking the appointment of an administrator, a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official with respect to such Bankruptcy Remote Party or any substantial part of its property or to consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against such Bankruptcy Remote Party, or to make a general assignment for the benefit of, its creditors generally, any party hereto or any other creditor of such Bankruptcy Remote Party, and (ii) such party shall not commence, join or institute against, with any other Person, any proceeding against such

Bankruptcy Remote Party under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation or insolvency law or statute now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall the Owner Trustee authorize, institute or join in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding described in the preceding sentence without the prior written approval of the Residual Interestholder and the delivery to the Owner Trustee of a certificate certifying that the Residual Interestholder reasonably believes that the Issuer is insolvent.

In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, each of the Owner Trustee (in its individual capacity and as the Owner Trustee), by entering into or accepting this agreement, each Residual Interestholder, by accepting a Residual Interest, and the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder or Note Owner, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Person has no right, title or interest in or to the Other Assets of the Seller.

This subordination agreement will be deemed a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each of the Owner Trustee (in its individual capacity and as the Owner Trustee), by entering into or accepting this agreement, each Residual Interestholder, by accepting a Residual Interest and the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder or Note Owner, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, hereby further acknowledges and agrees that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of this Section and the terms of this Section may be enforced by an action for specific performance. The provisions of this Section will be for the third party benefit of those entitled to rely thereon and will survive the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 11.9. Information Request.

     SECTION 11.13. Information Request.
