Each of the Servicer and the Originator has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted and, as described in the Offering Document, to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to consummate the Transaction.

duly authorized by all requisite action and do not require any additional approvals or consents, or other action by or any notice to or filing with any Person, including, without limitation, any governmental entity or the Servicer’s or the Originator’s shareholders which have not previously been obtained or given by the Servicer or the Originator.

(d) Noncontravention. Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Servicer or the Originator, the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby nor the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents:

(i) conflicts with or results in any breach or violation of any provision of the organizational documents, as applicable, of the Servicer or the Originator or any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award currently in effect having applicability to the Servicer or the Originator or any of their material properties, including regulations issued by an administrative agency or other governmental authority having supervisory powers over the Servicer or the Originator;

(ii) constitutes a default by the Servicer or the Originator under or a breach of any provision of any loan agreement, mortgage, indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Servicer or the Originator is a party or by which any of its or their respective properties, which are individually or in the aggregate material to the Servicer or the Originator, is or may be bound or affected; or

(f) Valid and Binding Obligations. The Obligations, when executed, authenticated and issued in accordance with the Indenture, and the Transaction Documents (other than the Obligations), when executed and delivered by the Servicer and the Originator, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Servicer and the Originator, as applicable, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles and public policy considerations as to rights of indemnification for violations of federal securities laws. Neither the Servicer nor the Originator will at any time in the future deny that the Transaction Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Servicer and the Originator, as applicable. The Obligations, when executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the Indenture, will be validly issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and will be valid and binding obligations of the Issuer. The Certificate, when executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the Trust

Agreement, will be validly issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Trust Agreement and will evidence a beneficial ownership interest in the Issuer.

(g) Financial Statements. The Reported Companies’ Financial Statements, copies of which have been furnished to the Insurer, (i) are, as of dates and for the periods referred to therein, complete and correct in all material respects, (ii) present fairly the financial condition and results of operations of the companies reported therein as of the dates and for the periods indicated and (iii) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, except as noted therein (subject as to interim statements to normal year-end adjustments). Since the date of the most recent Reported Companies’ Financial Statements, there has been no Material Adverse Change in such conditions or operations. Except as disclosed in the Reported Companies’ Financial Statements, the Servicer and the Originator are not subject to any contingent liabilities or commitments that, individually or in the aggregate, have a material possibility of causing a Material Adverse Change in respect of the Servicer or the Originator.

(h) Compliance With Law, Etc. No practice, procedure or policy employed, or proposed to be employed, by the Servicer or the Originator in the conduct of its business violates any law, regulation, judgment, agreement, order or decree applicable to any of them that, if enforced, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Servicer or the Originator. The Servicer and the Originator are not in breach of or in default under any applicable law or administrative regulation of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation, or any department, division, agency or instrumentality thereof or of the United States or any applicable judgment or decree or any loan agreement, note, resolution, certificate, agreement or other instrument to which the Servicer or the Originator is a party or is otherwise subject which, if enforced, would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Servicer or the Originator, as the case may be, to perform its respective obligations wider the Transaction Documents.

(i) Taxes. The Servicer, the Originator and the Servicer’s and the Originator’s parent company or companies have filed prior to the date hereof all federal and state tax returns that are required to be filed and paid all taxes, including any assessments received by them that are not being contested in good faith, to the extent that such taxes have become due, except for any failures to file or pay that, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Servicer or the Originator.

(j) Accuracy of Information. Neither the Transaction Documents nor other information relating to the Contracts, the operations of the Servicer or the Originator (including servicing or origination of the loans or the financial condition of the Servicer or the Originator) (collectively, the “Documents”), as amended, supplemented or superseded, furnished to the Insurer by the Servicer or the Originator contain any statement of a material fact by the Servicer or the Originator that was untrue or misleading in any material adverse respect when made. Neither the Servicer nor the Originator has any knowledge of circumstances that could cause a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Servicer, the Originator, the Seller, the Issuer or the Contracts. Since the furnishing of the Documents, there has been no change nor any development or event involving a prospective change known to the Servicer, the Originator, the Seller, the Issuer or the Contracts that would render any of the Documents untrue or misleading in a material respect.

(k) Compliance With Securities Laws. The offer and sale of the Obligations comply in all material respects with all requirements of law, including all registration requirements of applicable securities laws. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Offering Document does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and does not omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no representation is made with respect to the information in the Offering Document set forth under the heading “THE NOTE POLICY AND THE INSURER” or the consolidated financial statements of the Insurer incorporated by reference in the Offering Document. Neither the offer nor the sale of the Obligations has been or will be in violation of the Securities Act or any other federal or state securities laws. The Seller and the Issuer are not required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act.

(l) Transaction Documents. Each of the representations and warranties of the Servicer and the Originator contained in the Transaction Documents is true and correct in all material respects, and the Servicer and the Originator hereby make each such representation and warranty to, and for the benefit of, the Insurer as if the same were set forth in full herein.

(m) Solvency. The Servicer and the Originator are solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by the Transaction and, after giving effect to the Transaction, neither the Servicer nor the Originator will be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business, nor does the Servicer or the Originator intend to incur, or believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature. Neither the Servicer nor the Originator contemplates the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of the Servicer or the Originator or any of their assets.

(n) Principal Place of Business, Jurisdiction of Organization. The principal place of business of each of the Servicer and the Originator is located in Dallas, Texas. Each of the Originator and the Servicer is a corporation organized in the State of Illinois. “Santander Consumer USA Inc.” is the correct legal name of the Servicer and the Originator indicated on the public records of the Servicer’s and the Originator’s jurisdiction of organization which shows the Servicer and the Originator, respectively, to be organized.

(o) ERISA. Each of the Servicer and the Originator is in compliance with ERISA and has not incurred and does not reasonably expect to incur any liabilities to the PBGC under ERISA in connection with any Plan or Multiemployer Plan or to contribute now or in the future in respect of any Plan or Multiemployer Plan.

No consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration, filing or declaration with, any regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental instrumentality, nor any consent, approval, waiver or notification of any creditor, lessor or other nongovernmental Person, is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer or the Originator of this Insurance Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer or the Originator is a party, except (in each case) such as have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

(f) Valid and Binding Obligations. The Obligations, when executed, authenticated and issued in accordance with the Indenture and the Transaction Documents (other than the Obligations), when executed and delivered by the Seller and the Issuer, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Seller and the Issuer, as applicable, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles and public policy considerations as to rights of indemnification for violations of federal securities laws.

The Seller and the Issuer have filed prior to the date hereof all federal and state tax returns that are required to be filed and paid all taxes, including any assessments received by them that are not being contested in good faith, to the extent that such taxes have become due, except for any failures to file or pay that, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Seller or the Issuer.

(j) Transaction Documents. Each of the representations and warranties of the Seller and the Issuer contained in the Transaction Documents is true and correct in all material respects and the Seller and the Issuer hereby make each such representation and warranty to, and for the benefit of, the Insurer as if the same were set forth in full herein.

(n) No Consents. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Person, including, without limitation, any governmental entity or regulatory body, is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Seller or the Issuer of the Transaction Documents or any other material document or instrument to be delivered thereunder, except (in each case) such as have been obtained or the failure of which to be obtained would not be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Transaction.

(q) Accuracy of Information. Neither the Transaction Documents nor other information relating to the Contracts or the operations of the Seller or the Issuer (collectively, the “Seller and Issuer Documents”), as amended, supplemented or superseded, furnished to the Insurer by the Seller or the Issuer contain any statement of a material fact by the Seller or the Issuer that was untrue or misleading in any material adverse respect when made. None of the Seller or the Issuer has any knowledge of circumstances that could cause a Material Adverse Change with respect to the Servicer, the Originator, the Seller, the Issuer or the Contracts. Since the furnishing of the Seller and Issuer Documents, there has been no change nor any development or event involving a prospective change known to the Servicer, the Originator, the Seller or the Issuer that would render any of the Seller and Issuer Documents untrue or misleading in a material respect.

(t) Compliance with And Money Laundering Laws. No practice, procedure or policy employed or proposed to be employed by the Seller or the Issuer in the conduct of its business constitutes a material violation of any anti-money laundering law or regulation (including without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act, Public Law No. 107-56 (2001), and regulations promulgated thereunder) applicable to the Seller or the Issuer.

The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto hereby waive and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that the related documents or the subject matter thereof may not be litigated in or by such courts.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall not seek and hereby waive the right to any review of the judgment of any such court by any court of any other nation or jurisdiction which may be called upon to grant an enforcement of such judgment.

(c) Except as provided in Section 4.06 herein, nothing contained in this Insurance Agreement shall limit or affect the Insurer’s right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to start legal proceedings relating to any of the Transaction Documents against the any party hereto or its or their property in the courts of any jurisdiction.

Section 6.06. Consent of the Insurer. In the event that the consent of the Insurer is required under any of the Transaction Documents, the determination whether to grant or withhold such consent shall be made by the Insurer in its sole discretion without any implied duty towards any other Person.

Section 6.07. Counterparts. This Insurance Agreement may be executed in counterparts by the parties hereto, and all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Each party hereto (A) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, that it would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (B) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party by, among other things, this waiver.

Section 6.10. Limited Liability. No recourse under any Transaction Document shall be had against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any officer, employee, director, affiliate or

shareholder of any party hereto, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise in respect of any of the Transaction Documents, the Obligations or the Policies, it being expressly agreed and understood that each Transaction Document is solely a corporate obligation of each party hereto, and that any and all personal liability, either at common law or in equity, or by statute or constitution, of every such officer, employee, director, affiliate or shareholder for breaches by any party hereto of any obligations under any Transaction Document is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution and delivery of this Insurance Agreement.
