• Duties of Servicer The Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuing Entity, and (to the extent provided herein) the Indenture Trustee shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, exercises with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for its Affiliates or others. The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on such Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons or statements to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions. Subject to Section 4.2, the Servicer shall follow its then current customary standards, policies and procedures (“Servicing Procedures”) in performing its duties as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or the Financed Equipment securing such Receivables. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuing Entity shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s direction (and, so long as the Servicer is NH Credit, at the Servicer’s expense), take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. The Trustee or the Indenture Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Servicer, furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

• Indemnities of Servicer The Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Servicer under this Agreement:

To the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law and under such Serviced Corporate Trust Contract, this Agreement shall satisfy any requirement under any such Serviced Corporate Trust Contract for a written instrument of agency appointment with respect to any of the Serviced Appointments.

• Representations of Servicer The Servicer makes the following representations on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Receivables. The representations speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Trust Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture.

The portion of each Servicing File retained by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately marked to clearly reflect the ownership of the related Mortgage Loan by the Trustee. The Servicer shall release from its custody the contents of any Servicing File retained by it only in accordance with this Agreement.

• Duties of Master Servicer The Master Servicer, acting alone and/or through one or more Subservicers as provided in this Section, shall, as agent for the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Insurer, manage, service, administer and make collections on the Contracts. The Master Servicer agrees that its servicing of the Contracts shall be carried out in accordance with customary and usual procedures of financial institutions which service motor vehicle retail installment sales contracts and installment loans and, to the extent more exacting, the procedures used by the Master Servicer in respect of such contracts serviced by it for its own account. In accordance with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may, whenever an Obligor has become delinquent or the Master Servicer believes an Obligor may become delinquent, in order to preserve the ultimate collectability of amounts due on a Contract, modify the payment schedule on any Contract by reducing the APR on such Contract without the consent of the Insurer or any Rating Agency; provided, however, that the new APR shall not be less than the sum of (i) the Pass-Through Rate, (ii) the Servicing Fee Percent and (iii) the Retained Yield Percent. In addition, in order to preserve the Trust Estate, the Master Servicer may, without the consent of any Rating Agency or the Insurer, reduce the principal amount of a Contract (i.e., write-down a portion of the principal amount due on such Contract and, accordingly, lower the Monthly P&I on such Contract) to the extent funds are available in the Spread Account to cover such reduction; provided however, the total amount of such modifications pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and this sentence and reductions (i) may not affect more than 1% of the Original Pool Balance through the Certificate Final Distribution Date and (ii) during each three-month period between Distribution Dates (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, from the Cut-Off Date to such Distribution Date) shall not affect Contracts having an aggregate Scheduled Balance greater than 10/100 of one percent of the Pool Balance at the beginning of such period. Any such modifications or reductions exceeding such limits may be made only with the consent of the Insurer and each Rating Agency. The Master Servicer may also extend the Maturity Date on a Contract in accordance with Section 4.02. The Master Servicer's duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on the Contracts, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Insurer with respect to distributions and filing applicable U.S. tax returns for the Trust on an annual basis, based on a tax year for the Trust that is the calendar year. The Master Servicer shall have, subject to the terms hereof, full power and authority, acting alone, and subject only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall commence repossession efforts in respect of any Financed Vehicle respecting which the related Contract is four or more months delinquent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Trust, the Insurer, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any of them,
