Funding Date, the Transferor shall transfer, absolutely assign and
otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse except as set forth
herein, all of the Transferor's right, title and interest, whether now or
hereafter existing, in and to (i) the Subsequent Receivables
3
identified on a Schedule of Receivables delivered on such Funding Date, and
all moneys received thereon (including amounts received on any Extended

all of the foregoing; provided, however, that Subsequent Receivables may

Trustee and Granted by the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee unless
the addition of such Subsequent Receivables to the Receivables Pool meets
the requirements set forth in Section 2.16 of the Indenture.

constitute an absolute assignment of the Trust Property from the Transferor
to the Purchaser. If, notwithstanding the express intention of the parties,
this Agreement is deemed not to constitute a transfer, conveyance and
assignment of the Trust Property from the Transferor to the Purchaser, this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of
Article 8 and Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
State of Texas and the conveyance provided for in this Section 2.01 shall

title and interest in and to the Trust Property.

interest in and to the Subsequent Receivables and other Trust Property to the

or state regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental
instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Transferor or its

(v) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations

or agency under any existing federal or state law governing the
Transferor, except such as have been previously obtained, made or
taken.
(vii) No Unpaid Taxes. All tax returns required to be filed by
the Transferor in any jurisdiction have in fact been filed, and all
taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges upon it or any
subsidiary or upon any of its properties, income or franchises, shown

the Transferor's knowledge all such tax returns were true and correct

Transferor operated its business under the trade name "Capital One
Auto Finance, Inc." or "Summit Acceptance Corporation" or that of its
predecessor, "Summit Acceptance Finance, L.L.C." or that of its
predecessor, "Summit Finance, L.L.C." "Capital One Auto Finance, Inc."
is the name of the Transferor indicated on the public record of the
Transferor's jurisdiction of organization which shows the Transferor
to have been organized.
(xi) Ability to Perform. There has been no material impairment in
the ability of the Transferor to perform its obligations under this
Agreement.
(xii) Valid Business Reasons; No Fraudulent Transfers. The
Transferor has valid business reasons for assigning the Receivables
rather than obtaining a secured loan with the Receivables as
collateral. At the time of the assignment: (A) the Transferor
absolutely assigned the Receivables to the Purchaser without any
intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any current or future creditor of
the Transferor; (B) the Transferor was not insolvent or did not become
insolvent as a result of the assignment; (C) the Transferor was not
engaged and was not about to engage in any business or transaction for
which any property remaining with the Transferor was an unreasonably
small capital or for which the remaining assets of the Transferor were
unreasonably small in relation to the business of the Transferor or
the transaction; (D) the Transferor did not intend to incur, and did
not believe or reasonably should not have believed that it would
incur, debts beyond its ability to pay as they become due; and (E) the
consideration paid by the Purchaser to the Transferor for the
Receivables absolutely assigned by the Transferor hereunder was
equivalent to a fair market value of such Receivables under the
circumstances of the transaction, including but not limited to, timing
of such assignment.
(xiii) Principal Executive Office. Since its inception, the
Transferor has maintained its principal executive office in the State
of Texas.
8
(xiv) No Omission or Misstatement. Neither this Agreement nor any
statement, report or other document furnished or to be furnished
pursuant to this Agreement by the Transferor, or in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby, contains any untrue statement of
fact or omits to state a fact necessary to make the statements
contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading insofar as the same relates to the
Transferor. The Transferor has good and marketable title to, and is
the owner of, each Receivable absolutely assigned by the Transferor
hereunder and the indebtedness evidenced by each such Receivable is
subject to no lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance of any
kind or nature and the Transferor has the unqualified right to
contribute, transfer, convey and assign its ownership interest in each
such Receivable and the indebtedness evidenced thereby; the Transferor
has not made any prior assignment of any Receivable or its rights
thereto or thereunder except to existing lenders, the lien of which
lenders will be released in connection with the transactions
hereunder.
(xv) Perfection Representations. The Perfection Representations
shall be a part of this Transfer and Assignment Agreement for all
purposes.
(b) The Transferor makes the following representations and warranties
as to the Receivables absolutely assigned hereunder by the Transferor on
which representations and warranties the Purchaser relies in acquiring the
Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution
and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date or Funding Date,
as the case may be, but shall survive the absolute assignment of the
Receivables to the Purchaser and the subsequent transfer of the Receivables
by the Purchaser to the Owner Trustee pursuant to the Contribution
Agreement and Grant of the Receivables by the Owner Trustee to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:
(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each Receivable (A) to the
extent originated by COAF has been originated in the United States of
America by COAF through a Dealer approved by COAF under COAF's
approved form of Dealer Agreement (a copy of which is attached hereto
as Exhibit E), in the ordinary course of COAF's business, and has been
fully and properly executed by the parties thereto, (B) to the extent
originated by COAF, has been assigned, together with the security
interest in the related Financed Vehicle, by the applicable Dealer to
COAF, (C) has created or creates a valid, subsisting, and enforceable
first priority security interest (1) in favor of COAF in the related
Financed Vehicle or (2) in the case of a Referral Receivable or in the
case of a Receivable originated by Capital One F.S.B., in favor of the
applicable Referral Originator or Capital One F.S.B. in the related
Financed Vehicle which has been validly assigned by such Referral
Originator or Capital One F.S.B. to the Transferor, in each case which
security interest is being transferred and assigned by the Transferor
to the Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Transfer and
Assignment Agreement and contributed and assigned by the Purchaser to
the Owner Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Contribution
Agreement and Granted by the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee in
accordance with the
9
terms of the Indenture, (D) contains customary and enforceable
provisions such that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof are
adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of the
security, (E) is denominated in U.S. dollars and provides for level
monthly payments (provided that the payment in the first or last
payment period in the life of the Receivable may be minimally
different from the level payment) that fully amortize the Amount
Financed by maturity and yield interest at the applicable Contract
Rate (as determined in accordance with the definition of Scheduled
Interest Receivables and Simple Interest Receivables), and (F) to the
best knowledge of COAF, is due from an Obligor which is a citizen of
the United States.
(ii) Schedule of Receivables. The information set forth in the
Schedule of Receivables is true and correct in all material respects
as of the close of business on the applicable Cutoff Date, no
selection procedures believed to be adverse to the Purchaser have been
utilized in selecting the Receivables and the geographic distribution
of the Obligors with respect to the Receivables or the credit quality
characteristics of the Receivables assigned hereunder are not
materially different from the Transferor's existing core portfolio.
The information on the computer tape regarding the Receivables made
available to the Purchaser and its assigns is true and correct in all
material respects.
(iii) Form of Receivables. Each of the Receivables is
substantially in one of the forms included in Exhibit B attached
hereto. Any modifications or deviations from the applicable form set
forth in such Exhibit will not have a material adverse effect on the
Noteholders or the Note Insurer and will not reduce the Scheduled
Payment or other amounts due under such Receivable.
(iv) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable, the sale of the
related Financed Vehicle and any Extended Service Agreement complied
in all material respects at the time it was originated or made and on
the Closing Date or Funding Date, as the case may be, and does comply
in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal,
State and local laws, and regulations thereunder, including, without
limitation, usury laws, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal
Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's Regulations B
and Z, the applicable Consumer Credit Act, State adaptations of the
National Consumer Act and of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, and
other consumer credit laws and equal credit opportunity and disclosure
laws.
(v) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable represents the genuine,
legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the Obligor,
enforceable by the owner thereof in accordance with its terms.
(vi) No Government Obligor. The Receivables are not due from the
United States of America or any State or from any agency, department
or instrumentality of the United States of America or any State.
10
(vii) Security Interest in Financed Vehicle. Immediately prior to
the assignment thereof, (1) each Receivable was secured by a first
priority security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of
the Transferor as secured party, (2) in the case of a Referral
Receivable, such Referral Receivable was secured by a first priority
security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the
Referral Originator thereof which security interest has been validly

case of a Receivable originated by Capital One F.S.B., such Receivable

Transferor or (4) all necessary and appropriate actions have been
commenced that would result in the valid perfection of a first
priority security interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of the
Transferor (or the applicable Referral Originator) upon completion of
processing by the applicable state agency and the Servicer has a clear
legal right to repossess the Financed Vehicle upon the occurrence of
certain matters including non-payment under the Receivable. The
Transferor warrants that it will defend its security interest in the
Financed Vehicle that has been assigned hereunder against all Persons.
(viii) Receivables in Force. The Receivables have not been
satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has the related Financed
Vehicle been released from the lien granted by the Receivable in whole
or in part.

impaired, altered or modified in any respect except in accordance with
the Servicing Agreement, the substance of which is reflected in the
Schedule of Receivables as it relates to the information included

permitting acceleration under the terms of such Receivable has arisen,
and the Transferor has not waived any of the foregoing. As of the

Receivable would not be paid in full. The Obligor is not an obligor
under any other existing receivable payable to the Transferor or the
Servicer which is in default or is more than thirty (30) days past
due; to the best knowledge of the Transferor, the Obligor was not an
obligor under any prior receivable which was in default.

have been originated on or before the applicable Cutoff Date.
(xv) Insurance. In connection with the purchase of a Receivable,
the Servicer required that it be furnished evidence that the related

subject to a deductibility not in excess of $500 (i) naming the
Servicer as a loss payee and (ii) insuring against loss and damage due
to fire, theft, transportation, collision and other risks generally
covered by comprehensive and collision coverage.
(xvi) Title. It is the intention of the Transferor that the

Purchaser will have good and marketable title to each Receivable, free
and clear of all Liens, except any Lien which will be released prior
to assignment hereunder and the Lien created by the Indenture; and the
security interest in each Receivable has been validly perfected under
the UCC and other applicable law, if any.
(xvii) Lawful Assignment. The Receivables have not been

the Transferor has entered into a Dealer's Agreement with the
Transferor and such Dealer's Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the Transferor and the related Dealer with respect
to the sale of such Receivable to the Transferor. Such Dealer's
Agreement is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid and

defaults by such Dealer or by the Transferor under such Dealer's

under such Dealer's Agreement; the Transferor has not made any
statements or representations to such Dealer (whether written or oral)

payment due to such Dealer from the Transferor for the purchase of
such Receivable; such Dealer has no right, title or interest in or to
any Receivable; there is no prior course of dealing between such
Dealer and the Transferor which will affect the terms of such Dealer's
Agreement. The Receivable was originated in the United States for the
retail sale of the Financed Vehicle in the ordinary course of the
Dealer's business.
(xlii) Obligor Responsibility. Each of the Receivables contains

as the case may be.
(xlv) Previous Repossession. The Receivables are not secured by a
security interest in a related Financed Vehicle which has been
repossessed and is subject to redemption by the related Obligor; to
the best knowledge of the Transferor, the Receivables are not secured
by a security interest in a related Financed Vehicle which has been
previously repossessed and redeemed by the original obligor unless
approved in writing by the Note Insurer.
(xlvi) Receivables Pool. The inclusion of any Receivable in the
Receivables Pool after the Closing Date will not (a) reduce the
weighted average Contract Rate of the Receivables included in the
Receivables Pool to less than 15.60%, (b) increase the weighted
average remaining term to maturity of the Receivables included in the
Receivables Pool to greater than 63 months, (c) in the case of
Receivables originated by COAF, increase the average Loan to Value
Ratio of Receivables included in the Receivables Pool as of a Funding
Date to greater than 115%, (d) cause the aggregate Receivable Balances
of all Referral Receivables to exceed 5% of the Aggregate Receivable
Balance, or (e) in the case of the inclusion of a Subsequent
Receivable in the Receivables Pool, result in a material reduction in
the overall credit quality of the Receivables Pool.

Vehicles for retitling in the name of the Indenture Trustee as secured
party have been delivered to the Custodian.
(xlix) Transferor Fulfilled All Obligations. The Transferor and
the Servicer have duly fulfilled all obligations to be fulfilled under
or in connection with the origination, acquisition and assignment of
the Receivables, including, without limitation, giving any notices or
consents necessary to effect the Grant of the Receivables to the
Indenture Trustee, and have done nothing to impair the rights of the
Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer or the Noteholders in payments
with respect thereto. The Transferor has obtained all necessary
licenses, permits and charters required to be obtained by the
Transferor, which failure to obtain would render any portion of the
documents executed in connection with the assignment from the
Transferor to the Purchaser and the transfer from the Purchaser to the
Owner Trustee of the Receivables and the issuance and sale of the
Notes secured thereby unenforceable or would have a material adverse
effect on the Note Insurer or the Noteholders.
16
(l) Not Subject to Transfer Taxes. The assignment of the
Receivables by the Transferor pursuant to this Transfer and Assignment
Agreement is not subject to and will not result in any Transfer Taxes
other than Transfer Taxes which have been or will be paid by the
Transferor as due.

which the selection was made of the Receivables being assigned on the
Closing Date or Funding Date, as applicable, has been made available
to any firm performing agreed upon procedures with respect to any
information contained in the Registration Statement, and such
information was complete and accurate as of its date and includes a
description of the same Receivables that are described on the Schedule
of Receivables and the payments due thereunder as of the Closing Date
or Funding Date, as applicable.

value of any Receivable.
(liii) No Purchase After Cutoff Date. None of the Receivables was
purchased by the Transferor after the applicable Cutoff Date.

Purchaser, transferred by the Purchaser to the Issuer, and Granted by
the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee; and (B) the Indenture Trustee
will be entitled to receive all amounts due to an Obligor or
lienholder upon cancellation of an Extended Service Agreement by an
Obligor with respect to a Defaulted Receivable.

deliver to the Purchaser and the Note Insurer prompt written notice of the
occurrence of a breach of any of the representations and warranties of the
Transferor contained in Section 3.02(b) hereof with respect to a Receivable
absolutely assigned hereunder.
(a) Upon discovery by any of the Transferor, the Purchaser, the Owner
Trustee, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer or the
Servicer of (i) a Nonconforming Receivable or (ii) failure to deliver to
the Custodian either (A) any document required to be included in the
Custodian File or (B) failure to deliver to the Indenture Trustee the
Perfection UCCs, pursuant to Section 7.18 of the Indenture the party
discovering such breach or failure to deliver shall give prompt written
notice
22
to each of the other foregoing parties. Except as specifically provided in
the Servicing Agreement or Indenture, the Indenture Trustee has no
obligation to review or monitor the Trust Property for compliance with
representations and warranties, delivery requirements or payments. If (i)
the breach of representations or warranties causing such Receivable to be a
Nonconforming Receivable shall not have been (A) cured within thirty (30)
days following notice thereof or (B) waived by the Note Insurer following
notice thereof or (ii) the failure to deliver to the Custodian the
Custodian File documents or the Perfection UCCs shall not have been cured
within seven (7) calendar days following notice thereof (the occurrence of
any of the foregoing constitutes a "Repurchase Event"), the Owner Trustee
shall assign to the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall assign to the
Transferor the Receivable and the other related items of the Trust Property
affected by such breach, failure to deliver or non-payment and the
Transferor shall accept such assignment from the Purchaser and deposit the
Repurchase Price with respect to such Receivable into the Collection
Account within five (5) Business Days following the applicable cure period
or two (2) Business Days following receipt by the Transferor of notice from
the Note Insurer that the Note Insurer will not waive the breach of
representations or warranties causing such Receivable to be a Nonconforming
Receivable; provided that such transfer and assignment shall only be made
upon receipt by the Owner Trustee of notice from the Servicer (pursuant to
the terms of the Servicing Agreement) that the Repurchase Price has been
remitted to the Servicer and deposited into the Collection Account. In
consideration of the removal of such Receivable and the other related items
of the Trust Property, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Purchaser and the
Purchaser shall cause the Transferor, no later than the fifth Business Day
following such cure period, if any, to pay the Repurchase Price to the
Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account. The Owner Trustee shall
be entitled to enforce the obligations of the Purchaser, the Transferor and
the applicable Dealer under the Contribution Agreement, this Transfer and
Assignment Agreement and the Dealer's Agreements, respectively, to remit
the Repurchase Price to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection
Account no later than the last day of the Collection Period following such
date. The Indenture Trustee and the Note Insurer are authorized to take
action on behalf of the Owner Trustee to enforce the obligations of the
Purchaser and the Transferor to repurchase such Receivable under the
Contribution Agreement or this Transfer and Assignment Agreement,
respectively, and to enforce the obligation of a Dealer to repurchase such
Receivable under the applicable Dealer Agreement.
(b) The obligations of the Transferor, the Purchaser and the Owner
Trustee to remove any Receivable and the other related items of the Trust
Property and to remit the Repurchase Price with respect to a Nonconforming
Receivable or as to which a failure to deliver has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy, except for the indemnification
provisions expressly set forth in the Indenture, the Servicing Agreement,
the Contribution Agreement, this Transfer and Assignment Agreement and the
Insurance Agreement, against the Transferor, the Purchaser and the Owner
Trustee for such breach or failure to deliver available to the Indenture
Trustee or the Noteholders.

Receivable repurchased by the Transferor pursuant to this Agreement, the

without recourse, representation or warranty, to the Transferor all the
Purchaser's right, title and interest in and to such Receivable, and all
security and documents relating thereto.

the Purchaser will absolutely assign the Receivables and the other Trust
Property along with the Purchaser's rights and benefits hereunder to the Owner
Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, (b) the Owner
Trustee will Grant the Receivables and the other Trust Property along with the
Owner Trustee's rights and benefits under the Contribution Agreement and
hereunder to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and

the Note Insurer. The Transferor hereby consents to such assignments and Grants.

Insurer. The Transferor shall deliver to the Persons identified on a list
provided to the Transferor by the Indenture Trustee, as such list may be amended
from time to time, a copy of any amendment to this Agreement.
7.06 Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of the Purchaser or the Note
Insurer in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement or an
Assignment shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. Any waiver
of the terms and provisions hereof must be in writing and must be consented to
in writing by the Indenture Trustee and the Note Insurer.

In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in
the Transfer and Assignment Agreement, the Transferor hereby represents,
warrants, and covenants to the Seller as to itself as follows on the Closing
Date and on each Payment Date thereafter:
1. The Transfer and Assignment Agreement creates a valid and continuing

of the Seller, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is
enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferor.
2. The Receivables constitute "tangible chattel paper" within the meaning
of UCC Section 9-102.
3. The Transferor has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security
interest against the Obligor in the property securing the Receivables that
constitute chattel paper.
4. The Transferor owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables
free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person, excepting only
liens for taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges or levies incurred
in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or as to
which any applicable grace period shall not have expired, or that are being
contested in good faith by proper proceedings and for which adequate reserves
have been established, but only so long as foreclosure with respect to such a
lien is not imminent and the use and value of the property to which the Lien
attaches is not impaired during the pendency of such proceeding.
5. The Transferor has caused or will have caused, within ten days after the
effective date of the Indenture, the filing of all appropriate financing
statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under
applicable law in order to perfect the contribution and sale of the Receivables
from the Transferor to the Seller, the transfer and sale of the Receivables from
the Seller to the Owner Trustee, and the security interest in the Receivables
granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder.
6. With respect to Receivables that constitute tangible chattel paper, such
tangible chattel paper is in the possession of the Custodian and the Indenture
Trustee has received a written acknowledgment from the Custodian that the
Custodian is holding such tangible chattel paper solely on behalf and for the
benefit of the Indenture Trustee.
7. Neither the Transferor, the Seller, nor the Servicer has authorized the
filing of, or is aware of any financing statements against either the
Transferor, the Seller or the Servicer that include a description of collateral
covering the Receivables, the Trust Property and proceeds related thereto other
than any financing statement (i) relating to the contribution of Receivables by
the Transferor to the Seller under the Transfer and Assignment Agreement, (ii)
relating to the sale of Receivables by the Seller to the Owner Trustee under the
Contribution Agreement, (iii) relating to the security interest granted to the
Indenture Trustee hereunder, or (iv) that has been terminated.
I-1
8. Neither the Transferor, the Seller nor the Servicer is aware of any
judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against either the Transferor, the Seller or

assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.
10. Survival of Perfection Representations. Notwithstanding any other
--------------------------------------
provision of the Transfer and Assignment Agreement, the Contribution Agreement,
the Indenture or any other Transaction Document, the Perfection Representations
contained in this Schedule shall be continuing, and remain in full force and
effect (notwithstanding any replacement of the Servicer or termination of the

Transfer and Assignment Agreement, Contribution Agreement and the Indenture have
been finally and fully paid and performed.
11. No Waiver. The parties hereto (i) shall not, without obtaining a
---------
confirmation of the then-current rating of the Class A Notes, waive any of the
Perfection Representations, (ii) shall provide the Ratings Agencies with prompt
written notice of any breach of the Perfection Representations, and (iii) shall
