Pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement, the Trust Depositor has assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Issuer as part of the Trust Corpus its rights under the Transfer and Sale Agreement, including without limitation, the representations and warranties of the Seller therein as set forth in Exhibit J attached hereto, together with all rights of the Trust Depositor with respect to any breach thereof including any right to require the Seller to reacquire any Contract in accordance with the Transfer and Sale Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth or referred to in this Section shall survive delivery of the Contract Files to the Owner Trustee or any custodian.

The Trust Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trust and the Indenture Trustee that it has entered into the Transfer and Sale Agreement with the Seller, that the Seller has made the representations and warranties in the Transfer and Sale Agreement as set forth in Exhibit J hereto, that such representations and warranties run to and are for the benefit of the Trust Depositor, and that pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement the Trust Depositor has transferred and assigned to the Trust all rights of the Trust Depositor to cause the Seller under the Transfer and Sale Agreement to reacquire Contracts in the event of a breach of such representations and warranties.

This Agreement shall effect a valid transfer and assignment of the Trust Corpus, enforceable against the Trust Depositor and creditors of and purchasers from the Trust Depositor. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust Depositor is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Trust Depositor enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.

(d)          No Consent Required. The Trust Depositor is not required to obtain the consent of any other party or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(e)          No Violations. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Trust Depositor and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation or any order or decree of any court or of any Federal or state regulatory body or administrative agency having jurisdiction over the Trust Depositor or any of its properties or the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Trust Depositor, or constitute a material breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which the Trust Depositor is a party or by which the Trust Depositor or any of the Trust Depositor’s properties may be bound, or result in the creation or imposition of any security interest, lien, charge, pledge, preference, equity or encumbrance of any kind upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement, other than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(f)          Litigation.

The Servicer is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the business transacted by it or properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification and in which the failure so to qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Servicer or the Trust. The Servicer is properly licensed in each jurisdiction to the extent required by the laws of such jurisdiction to service the Contracts in accordance with the terms hereof other than such licenses the failure to obtain would not have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Servicer or on the ability of the Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder.

(e)          Litigation. No litigation or administrative proceeding of or before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending, or to the knowledge of the Servicer threatened, against the Servicer or any of its properties or with respect to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party which, if adversely determined, would in the opinion of the Servicer have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Servicer or the Trust or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party.

Section 3.03.          Covenants and Agreements Regarding the EU Securitization Regulation and the UK Securitization Regulation. Harley-Davidson Credit hereby covenants and agrees in connection with the EU Securitization Regulation and the UK Securitization Regulation that Harley-Davidson Credit:

(a)          as an “originator” (as such term is defined for the purposes of each of the EU Securitization Regulation and the UK Securitization Regulation), shall retain upon issuance of the Notes, and on an ongoing basis for as long as any Notes remain outstanding, not less than 5% of the nominal value of each class of Notes sold to investors in accordance with the text of paragraph (a) of Article 6(3) of the EU Securitization Regulation and paragraph (a) of Article 6(3) of the UK Securitization Regulation, by retaining on an ongoing basis for as long as any Notes remain outstanding at least 5% of the principal amount of each class of Notes and the Certificate as residual interestholder, (i) such retained portion of the Notes being pro rata with the Notes not to be retained and (ii) such retained portion of the Notes and the residual interest evidenced by the Certificate together being in an amount that is (after taking into account any fees that may in practice be used to reduce the effective material net economic interest) equivalent to at least 5% of the aggregate nominal value of the pool balance of the contracts transferred to the Issuer;

(b)          shall not (and shall not permit the Trust Depositor or any of its other Affiliates to) subject the retained interest in the Notes and the Certificate (the “SR Retained Interest”) to any credit risk mitigation or hedging, or sell, transfer or otherwise surrender all or part of the rights, benefits or obligations arising from the SR Retained Interest, except to the extent permitted by the EU/UK Securitization Rules;

(c)          shall not change the manner in which it retains or the method of calculating the SR Retained Interest while any of the notes are outstanding, except to the extent permitted by the EU Securitization Rule and the UK Securitization Rule; and

PERFECTION OF TRANSFER AND PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS

Section 4.01.          Custody of Contracts. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4.01, the contents of each Contract File shall be held and controlled by the Servicer, or its custodian, for the benefit of, and as agent for, the Trust as the owner thereof and the Indenture Trustee.

(b)          The Servicer agrees to maintain the related Contract Files at its offices, or the offices of one of its custodians, where they are currently maintained, or at such other offices of the Servicer, or its custodian, as shall from time to time be identified to the Trustees by written notice except that in the case of any Contracts constituting “electronic chattel paper”, the “authoritative copy” thereof shall be maintained by the Servicer in a computer system such that the Servicer maintains “control” over such “authoritative copy” (terms in quotation marks have the meaning assigned to them in the UCC). The Servicer may temporarily move individual Contract Files or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to conduct collection and other servicing activities in accordance with its customary practices and procedures; provided, however, that the Servicer will take all action necessary to maintain the perfection of the Trust’s interest in the Contracts and the proceeds thereof. It is intended that, by the Servicer’s agreement pursuant to Section 4.01(a) above and this Section 4.01(b), the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have possession of the Contract Files for purposes of Section 9-313 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the state in which the Contract Files are located and control of the Contracts that represent electronic chattel paper for purposes of Section 9-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

(i)          hold, or cause the Servicer’s custodian to hold, the Contract Files on behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, maintain accurate records pertaining to each Contract to enable it to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, maintain a current inventory thereof and certify to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee annually that it, or its custodian, continues to maintain possession of such Contract Files;

(ii)         implement policies and procedures in writing and signed by a Servicing Officer with respect to persons authorized to have access to the Contract Files on the Servicer’s premises and the receipting for Contract Files taken from their storage area by an employee of the Servicer for purposes of servicing or any other purposes;

(iii)        attend to all details in connection with maintaining custody of the Contract Files on behalf of the Trust; and

(iv)        at all times maintain, or cause the Servicer’s custodian to maintain, the original of the fully executed Contract (or, in the case of “electronic chattel paper”, the “authoritative copy” of such Contract) in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, except as may be necessary to conduct collection and servicing activities in accordance with its customary practices and procedures (terms in quotation marks have the meaning assigned to them in the UCC).

(d)          In performing its duties under this Section 4.01, the Servicer agrees to act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and care that it exercises with respect to similar contracts for the financing of the purchase price of consumer goods owned and/or serviced by it, and in any event with no less degree of skill and care than would be exercised by a prudent servicer of promissory notes and security agreements. The Servicer shall promptly report to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee any failure by it, or its custodian, to hold the Contract Files as herein provided and shall promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. In acting as custodian of the Contract Files, the Servicer further agrees not to assert any legal or beneficial ownership interest in the Contracts or the Contract Files, except as provided in Section 5.06. The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Noteholders, the Certificateholder, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, payments, costs, or expenses of any kind whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Noteholders, the Certificateholder, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee as the result of any act or omission by the Servicer relating to the maintenance and custody of the Contract Files; provided, however, that the Servicer will not be liable for any portion of any such amount resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Noteholder, the Certificateholder, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee. The Trustees shall have no duty to monitor or otherwise oversee the Servicer’s performance as custodian hereunder.

Section 4.02.          Filing. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Servicer shall cause the UCC financing statement(s) referred to in Section 2.02(g) hereof to be filed and from time to time the Servicer shall take and cause to be taken such actions and execute such documents as are necessary or desirable or as the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee may reasonably request to perfect and protect the Trust’s first priority perfected interest in the Trust Corpus against all other persons, including, without limitation, the filing of financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements, the execution of transfer instruments and the making of notations on or taking possession of all records or documents of title. All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Trust Depositor or the Trust in connection herewith describing the Contract Assets as collateral shall contain a statement to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement, except as permitted in the Transfer and Sale Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, will violate the rights of the Secured Party.”

Section 4.03.          Name Change or Relocation. (a) During the term of this Agreement, neither the Seller nor the Trust Depositor shall change its name, identity or structure or change its state of incorporation without first giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee.

(b)          If any change in either the Seller’s or the Trust Depositor’s name, identity or structure or other action would make any financing or continuation statement or notice of lien filed under this Agreement seriously misleading within the meaning of applicable provisions of the UCC or any title statute, the Servicer, no later than five days after the effective date of such change, shall file such amendments, if any, as may be required to preserve and protect the Trust’s interests in the Trust Corpus and the proceeds thereof. In addition, neither the Seller nor the Trust Depositor shall change its state of incorporation unless it has first taken such action as is advisable or necessary to preserve and protect the Trust’s interest in the Trust Corpus. Promptly after taking any of the foregoing actions, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements or amendments necessary to preserve and protect the interests of the Trust in the Trust Corpus and the Indenture Trustee in the Collateral have been filed, and reciting the details of such filing.

Section 4.04.          Costs and Expenses. The Servicer agrees to pay all reasonable costs and disbursements in connection with the perfection and the maintenance of perfection, as against all third parties, of the Trust’s right, title and interest in and to the Contracts (including, without limitation, the security interest in the Motorcycles granted thereby).

ARTICLE Five

SERVICING OF CONTRACTS

Section 5.01.          Responsibility for Contract Administration. The Servicer will have the sole obligation to manage, administer, service and make collections on the Contracts and perform or cause to be performed all contractual and customary undertakings of the holder of the Contracts to the Obligor. The Owner Trustee, at the written request of a Servicing Officer, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the Owner Trustee to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer is hereby appointed the servicer hereunder until such time as any Servicing Transfer may be effected under Article Eight.

Section 5.02.         Standard of Care. In managing, administering, servicing and making collections on the Contracts pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer will exercise that degree of skill and care consistent with the skill and care that the Servicer exercises with respect to similar contracts serviced by the Servicer, and, in any event no less degree of skill and care than would be exercised by a prudent servicer of promissory notes and security agreements; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not release or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of any Contract except that with respect to a Contract that has become a Defaulted Contract, the Servicer, consistent with its collection policies, may release or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of such Defaulted Contract in an effort to maximize collections thereon.

Section 5.03.         Records. The Servicer shall, during the period it is servicer hereunder, maintain such books of account and other records as will enable the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to determine the status of each Contract.

Section 5.04.         Inspection. (a) At all times during the term hereof, the Servicer shall afford the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and their respective authorized agents reasonable access during normal business hours to the Servicer’s records relating to the Contracts and will cause its personnel to assist in any examination of such records by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, or such authorized agents and allow copies of the same to be made. The examination referred to in this Section will be conducted in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer’s normal operations or customer or employee relations. Without otherwise limiting the scope of the examination the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee may, using generally accepted audit procedures, verify the status of each Contract and review the Computer File and records relating thereto for conformity to Monthly Reports prepared pursuant to Article Nine and compliance with the standards represented to exist as to each Contract in this Agreement.

(b)       At all times during the term hereof, the Servicer shall keep available a copy of the List of Contracts at its principal executive office for inspection by the Trustees.

Section 5.05.         Trust Accounts. (a) On or before the Closing Date, the Trust Depositor shall establish the Trust Accounts, each with and in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Administrator is hereby required to ensure that each of the Trust Accounts is established and maintained as an Eligible Account. In the event that a Trust Account does not satisfy the requirements set forth in the definition of Eligible Account, the Trust Depositor shall, with the assistance of the Indenture Trustee, as necessary, use reasonable efforts to cause such Trust Account to be moved to an account satisfying the requirements set forth in the definition of Eligible Account within sixty (60) days.

(b)       The Indenture Trustee shall deposit (or, except as provided in Section 5.05(e) hereof, the Servicer shall deposit, with respect to payments by or on behalf of the Obligors received directly by the Servicer) into the Collection Account as promptly as practical (but in any case not later than the second Business Day following the processing thereof):

(i)       With respect to principal and interest on the Contracts received after the Cutoff Date (which for the purpose of this paragraph (b)(i) shall include those monies in the Lockbox Account allocable to principal and interest on the Contracts), all such amounts received by the Owner Trustee or Servicer;

(ii)       All Net Liquidation Proceeds related to the Contracts;

(iii)       The aggregate of the Purchase Prices for Contracts reacquired by the Trust Depositor as described in Section 7.08, and by the Seller as described in the Sale and Transfer Agreement;

(iv)       All Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.03;

(v)       All amounts paid by the Servicer in connection with an optional purchase of the Contracts described in Section 7.10;

(vi)       The aggregate of the Purchase Prices for Contracts purchased by the Servicer as described in Section 7.11; and

(vii)     All amounts received in respect of interest, dividends, gains, income and earnings on investments of funds in the Collection Account and the Note Distribution Account as contemplated herein.

(d)       The Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee to, and the Indenture Trustee shall, invest the amounts in the Trust Accounts in Qualified Eligible Investments that are payable on demand or that mature not later than one Business Day prior to the next succeeding Distribution Date. Once such funds are invested, the Indenture Trustee shall not change the investment of such funds. Any loss on such investments shall be charged to such Trust Account. Funds in the Trust Accounts not so invested must be insured to the extent permitted by law by the Deposit Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Subject to the restrictions herein, the Indenture Trustee may purchase a Qualified Eligible Investment from itself or an Affiliate. Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall have sole control over each such investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment, if any, shall be delivered directly to the Indenture Trustee or its agent, together with each document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Indenture Trustee in a manner which complies with this Section 5.05(d). All interest, dividends, gains upon sale and other income from, or earnings on, investments of funds in the Trust Accounts (other than the Reserve Fund) shall be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.05(b) and distributed on the applicable Distribution Date pursuant to Section 7.05. The Trust Depositor and the Trust agree and acknowledge that the Indenture Trustee is to have “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-106 of the UCC) of collateral comprised of “investment property” (within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC) for all purposes of this Agreement, it being understood that the Indenture Trustee shall make no investment decisions in connection therewith.

(e)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Servicer may remit payments on the Contracts and Net Liquidation Proceeds to the Collection Account in next-day funds or immediately available funds no later than 10:00 a.m., Central time, on the Business Day prior to the next succeeding Distribution Date, but only for so long as the short-term debt security rating of the Servicer (or an Affiliate thereof acceptable to each Rating Agency) is at least “P-1” by Xxxxx’x and “A-1” by S&P.

(f)       The Servicer shall apply collections received in respect of a Contract as follows:

(i)       First, to the scheduled payment (including accrued interest and principal) with respect to such Contract;

(ii)      Second, to pay any expenses and unpaid late charges or fees (if any) due and owing under such Contract; and

(iii)       Third, to any remaining principal until such Contract is paid in full.

(g)       The Servicer will, from time to time as provided herein, be permitted to withdraw or request the withdrawal from the Collection Account any amount deposited therein that, based on the Servicer’s good-faith determination, was deposited in error.

Section 5.06.         Enforcement. (a) The Servicer will, consistent with Section 5.02, act with respect to the Contracts in such manner as in its judgment will maximize the receipt of all payments called for under the terms of the Contracts. The Servicer, acting as agent for the Trust pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, shall use its best efforts to cause Obligors to make all payments on the Contracts to the Lockbox Account (either directly by remitting payments to the Lockbox, or indirectly by making payments through a direct debit, the telephone or the internet to an account of the Servicer which payments will be subsequently transferred from such account to the Lockbox Account). The Servicer will act in a commercially reasonable manner with respect to the repossession and disposition of a Motorcycle following a default under the related Contract with a view to realizing proceeds at least equal to the Motorcycle’s fair market value. If the Servicer determines that eventual payment in full of a Contract is unlikely, the Servicer will follow its normal practices and procedures to recover all amounts due upon that Contract, including repossessing and disposing of the related Motorcycle at a public or private sale or taking other action permitted by applicable law. The Servicer will be entitled to recover all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in liquidating a Contract and disposing of the related Motorcycle.

(b)       The Servicer may xxx to enforce or collect upon Contracts, in its own name, if possible, or as agent for the Trustees. If the Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Contract, the act of commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic assignment of the Contract to the Servicer for purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Contract on the ground that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Contract, the Owner Trustee (or the Indenture Trustee) on behalf of the Trust shall, at the Servicer’s expense, take such steps as the Servicer deems reasonably necessary to enforce the Contract, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the Noteholders under the Indenture and the Certificateholder as owner of the Trust.

(c)       The Servicer shall exercise any rights of recourse against third persons that exist with respect to any Contract in accordance with the Servicer’s usual practice. In exercising recourse rights, the Servicer is authorized on the Trust’s and Indenture Trustee’s behalf to reassign the Defaulted Contract or the related Motorcycle to the Person against whom recourse exists at the price set forth in the document creating the recourse; provided, however, the Servicer in exercising recourse against any third persons as described in the immediately preceding sentence shall do so in such manner as in its judgment will maximize the aggregate recovery with respect to the Contract; and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing the Servicer in its capacity as such may exercise such recourse only if such Contract (i) was not required to be reacquired by the Seller pursuant to the Transfer and Sale Agreement or (ii) was required to be reacquired by the Seller and the Seller has defaulted on such reacquisition obligation.

(d)       The Servicer will not permit any rescission or cancellation of any Contract due to the acts or omissions of the Trust Depositor.

(e)       Subject to Section 5.02, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates or adjustments on a Contract; provided, however, that if the Servicer extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Contract beyond the Class A-4 Final Distribution Date, it shall promptly purchase such Contract pursuant to Section 7.11.

(f)       The Servicer will not add to the outstanding Principal Balance of any Contract the premium of any physical damage or other individual insurance on a Motorcycle securing such Contract it obtains on behalf of the Obligor under the terms of such Contract, but may create a separate Obligor obligation with respect to such premium if and as provided by the Contract.

(g)       If the Servicer shall have repossessed a Motorcycle on behalf of the Trust, the Servicer shall either (i) maintain at its expense physical damage insurance with respect to such Motorcycle, or (ii) indemnify the Trust against any damage to such Motorcycle prior to resale or other disposition. The Servicer shall not allow such repossessed Motorcycles to be used in an active trade or business, but rather shall dispose of the Motorcycle in a reasonable time in accordance with the Servicer’s normal business practices.

Section 5.07.         Trustees to Cooperate. Upon payment in full on any Contract, the Servicer shall (if the Servicer is not then in possession of the Contracts and Contract Files) notify the Trustees and request delivery of the Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt of such notice and request, the Trustees shall promptly release or cause to be released such Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt of such Contract and Contract File, each of the Trust Depositor and the Servicer is authorized to execute an instrument in satisfaction of such Contract and to do such other acts and execute such other documents as the Servicer deems necessary to discharge the Obligor thereunder and eliminate the security interest in the Motorcycle related thereto. The Servicer shall determine when a Contract has been paid in full; to the extent that insufficient payments are received on a Contract credited by the Servicer as prepaid or paid in full and satisfied, the shortfall shall be paid by the Servicer out of its own funds. From time to time as appropriate for servicing and repossession in connection with any Contract, if the Servicer is not then in possession of the Contracts and Contract Files, the Indenture Trustee shall, upon written request of a Servicing Officer and delivery to the Indenture Trustee of a receipt signed by such Servicing Officer, cause the original Contract and the related Contract File to be released to the Servicer and shall execute such documents as the Servicer shall deem reasonably necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the original Contract and the related Contract File to the Indenture Trustee when the need by the Servicer has ceased unless the Contract shall be acquired as described in Section 7.10 or 7.11. Upon request of a Servicing Officer, the Indenture Trustee shall perform such other acts as reasonably requested by the Servicer and otherwise cooperate with the Servicer in the enforcement of each Certificateholder’s rights and remedies with respect to the Contracts.

Section 5.08.         Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer in carrying out its duties hereunder, fees and expenses of accountants and payments of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of Contracts (including enforcement of Defaulted Contracts and repossessions of Motorcycles securing such Contracts when such Contracts are not reacquired pursuant to Section 7.08) and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated hereunder to be for the account of the Trust shall be paid by the Servicer and the Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement hereunder.

Section 5.09.         Maintenance of Security Interests in Motorcycles. The Servicer shall take such steps as are necessary to maintain continuous perfection and the first priority of the security interest created by each Contract in the related Motorcycle.

Section 5.10.         Successor Servicer/Lockbox Agreements. In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be acting as such, the Successor Servicer shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the outgoing servicer under each Lockbox Agreement; provided, however, that the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or obligations of the Servicer arising prior to such succession. In such event, the Successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the outgoing Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the outgoing Servicer as a party to each such Lockbox Agreement to the same extent as if such Lockbox Agreement had been assigned to the Successor Servicer, except that the outgoing Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations on the part of the outgoing Servicer to a Lockbox Bank under such Lockbox Agreement. The outgoing Servicer shall, upon the request of the Owner Trustee, but at the expense of the outgoing Servicer, deliver to the Successor Servicer all documents and records relating to each such Lockbox Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held by a Lockbox Bank and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of any Lockbox Agreement to the Successor Servicer.

(d)       No Borrowing. The Trust Depositor shall not issue, incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable, directly or indirectly, for (i) any Indebtedness except for any Indebtedness permitted by or arising under the Transaction Documents or (ii) obligations in connection with transactions described in the proviso of Section 6.01(c), as limited thereby.

To the extent that the Trust Depositor contracts or does business with vendors or service providers when the goods and services provided are partially for the benefit of any other Person, the costs incurred in so doing shall be fairly allocated to or among such entities for whose benefit the goods and services are provided, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such costs. All material transactions between Trust Depositor and any of its Affiliates shall be only on an arm’s-length basis.

Section 6.02.        Liability of Trust Depositor; Indemnities. The Trust Depositor shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Trust Depositor under this Agreement.

The Trust Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, Wilmington Trust, National Association, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer from and against any taxes that may at any time be asserted against any such Person as a result of or relating to the transactions contemplated herein and in the other Transaction Documents, including any sales, gross receipts, gross margin, general corporation, tangible personal property, New York personal property replacement privilege or license taxes (but, in the case of the Issuer, not including any taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of, the transfer of the Contracts to the Issuer or the issuance and original sale of the Securities, or federal or other income taxes arising out of distributions on the Notes or the Certificate) and costs and expenses in defending against the same.

The Trust Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, Wilmington Trust, National Association, the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders from and against any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the Trust Depositor’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, including all reasonable and documented legal fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of this indemnity.

The Trust Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, Wilmington Trust, National Association and the Indenture Trustee from and against all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or incurred in connection with the acceptance or performance of the trusts and duties herein and, in the case of the Owner Trustee, in the Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Indenture Trustee, in the Indenture, except to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability in the case of (i) the Owner Trustee or Wilmington Trust, National Association, as the case may be, shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Owner Trustee or Wilmington Trust, National Association, as the case may be, or shall arise from the breach by the Owner Trustee or Wilmington Trust, National Association, as the case may be, of any of its representations or warranties set forth in Section 7.03 of the Trust Agreement, or (ii) the Indenture Trustee, shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee.

The Trust Depositor shall be liable directly to and will indemnify any injured party or any other creditor of the Trust for all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses of the Trust to the extent that the Trust Depositor would be liable if the Trust were a partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act in which Trust Depositor were a general partner; provided, however, that Trust Depositor shall not be liable for any losses incurred by a Certificateholder in the capacity of any investor in the Trust Certificate or a Noteholder in the capacity of an investor in the Notes. In addition, any third party creditors of the Trust (other than in connection with the obligations described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence for which Trust Depositor shall not be liable) shall be deemed third party beneficiaries of this paragraph. The obligations of Trust Depositor under this paragraph shall be evidenced by the Trust Certificate described in the Trust Agreement.

Indemnification under this Section shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation and shall survive the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the Trustees. If the Trust Depositor shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter shall collect any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Trust Depositor, without interest and the Trust Depositor may, as a condition to any such indemnification, require such Person to agree in writing to do so.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the Trust Depositor under this Section are solely the corporate obligations of the Trust Depositor and shall be payable by it solely as provided in this Section. The Trust Depositor shall only be required to make such payments required under this Section, (a) from funds available to it pursuant to, and in accordance with the payment priorities set forth in Section 7.05 and (b) to the extent that it receives additional funds designated for such purposes or to the extent that it has additional funds available (other than funds described in the preceding clause (a)) that would be in excess of amounts that would be necessary to pay the debt and other obligations of the Trust Depositor incurred in accordance with its Articles of Incorporation and all financing documents to which it is a party as they come due. In addition, no amount owing by the Trust Depositor hereunder in excess of the liabilities that it is required to pay in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a “claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against it. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing hereunder or any other obligation of, or claim against the Trust Depositor arising out of or based upon this Section against any stockholder, employee, officer, agent, director or authorized person of the Trust Depositor or Affiliate thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve any such person or entity of any liability they might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions or omissions taken by them.

Section 6.03.         Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Trust Depositor; Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section and any provision of law, the Trust Depositor shall not do any of the following:

(a)       engage in any business or activity other than as set forth in its Articles of Incorporation;

(b)       without the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Trust Depositor (which must include the affirmative vote of at least two duly appointed Independent directors) (i) dissolve or liquidate, in whole or in part, or institute proceedings to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, (ii) consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, (iii) file a petition seeking or consent to reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law relating to bankruptcy, (iv) consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the corporation or a substantial part of its property, (v) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (vi) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or (vii) take any corporate action in furtherance of the actions set forth in clauses (i) through (vi) above; provided, however, that no director may be required by any shareholder of the Trust Depositor to consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Trust Depositor so long as it is solvent; or

(c)       merge or consolidate with any other corporation, company or entity or sell all or substantially all of its assets or acquire all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock or other ownership interest of any other corporation, company or entity unless the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Trust Depositor has merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease substantially all the assets of the Trust Depositor as an entirety, can lawfully perform the obligations of the Trust Depositor hereunder and executes and delivers to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee which contains an assumption by such successor entity of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Trust Depositor under this Agreement; provided that the Rating Agency Condition shall be satisfied with respect to any merger, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section.

Section 6.04.         Limitation on Liability of Trust Depositor and Others. The Trust Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Trust Depositor may rely in good faith on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Trust Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Trust Depositor shall be reimbursed by the Owner Trustee for any contractual damages, liability or expense incurred by reason of the Owner Trustee’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (except errors in judgment) in the performance of its duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents. The Trust Depositor shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.

Section 6.05.         Trust Depositor Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, the Trust Depositor shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it as Trust Depositor hereunder.

Not later than each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall advance (each, an “Advance”) an amount equal to the Delinquent Interest for such Determination Date by depositing such amount in the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Servicer shall be obligated to advance Delinquent Interest only to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects that such advance will not become an Uncollectible Advance. The Servicer shall indicate on each Monthly Report (i) the amount of Delinquent Interest, if any, on the Contracts for the related Determination Date and (ii) the amount of the Advance, if any, made by the Servicer in respect of the Delinquent Interest pursuant to this Section 7.03. If the amount of such Advance is less than the amount of the Delinquent Interest, the relevant Monthly Report shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the determination by the Servicer that the portion of the Delinquent Interest not advanced would become an Uncollectible Advance. By each Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount of prior unreimbursed Advances for which it shall be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the provisions of this Section (such amount, the “Reimbursement Amount”). The Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for any outstanding Advance with respect to a Contract as provided in Section 7.05(a)(i).

(c)            The Indenture Trustee shall at the written direction of the Servicer invest the funds in the Reserve Fund in Qualified Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer.

Section 7.07.           [Reserved].

Section 7.08.           Purchase of Contracts for Breach of Representations and Warranties.

(a)            If the Trust Depositor (i) has knowledge of a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth in Exhibit J hereto, (ii) receives notice from the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee of a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth in Exhibit J hereto, (iii) receives a Repurchase Request from the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee for a Contract or (iv) receives a Review Report that indicates a Test Fail for a Contract, then, in each case, the Trust Depositor will investigate the Contract to confirm the breach and determine if the breach has a material adverse effect on the Contract. None of the Servicer, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Administrator will have an obligation to investigate whether a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred or whether any Contract is required to be repurchased under this Section 7.08.

(b)            Upon a discovery by the Servicer, the Trust Depositor or the Trustees of a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth in Exhibit J hereto that materially adversely affects the Trust’s interest in such Contract (without regard to the benefits of the Reserve Fund), the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties; provided, that the Trustees shall have no duty or obligation to inquire or to investigate the breach by the Seller of any of such representations or warranties. The Trust Depositor shall reacquire from the Trust, and the Trust Depositor shall cause the Seller to reacquire from the Trust Depositor, as provided in the Transfer and Sale Agreement and in accordance with this Section 7.08, a Contract at its Purchase Price (which shall be deposited into the Collection Account), not later than two Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date after the last day of the calendar month in which the Trust Depositor or the Seller become aware or receive written notice from the Trustees, the Servicer or the Trust Depositor of any breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller set forth in Article III of the Transfer and Sale Agreement that materially and adversely affects such Contract or the Trust’s interest in such Contract and which breach has not been cured; provided, however, that with respect to any Contract described on the List of Contracts with respect to an incorrect unpaid Principal Balance which the Seller would otherwise be required to reacquire under the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Seller may, in lieu of reacquiring such Contract, deposit in the Collection Account, not later than one Business Day prior to the first Distribution Date after the last day of the calendar month in which the Seller becomes aware of such inaccuracy, cash in an amount sufficient to cure any deficiency or discrepancy; and provided further that with respect to a breach of representation or warranty relating to the Contracts in the aggregate and not to any particular Contract the Seller may select Contracts (without adverse selection) to reacquire such that had such Contracts not been included as part of the Trust Corpus there would have been no breach of such representation or warranty.

(c)            If the Servicer determines in good faith that the representation and warranty of the Seller as set forth in Section 2(i) of Exhibit J hereto may have been violated with respect to one or more Contracts, and that amendment of the terms of such Contract(s) could better ensure compliance with applicable laws and if the Seller shall have notified the Servicer in writing of its intention to amend the terms of such Contract(s) to ensure compliance with applicable laws upon reacquisition pursuant to this Section 7.08(c) and the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Servicer shall give prompt written notice of such determination to the other parties. The Trust Depositor shall reacquire from the Trust, and the Trust Depositor shall cause the Seller to reacquire from the Trust Depositor, as provided in the Transfer and Sale Agreement and in accordance with this Section 7.08, a Contract at its Purchase Price (which shall be deposited into the Collection Account), not later than two Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date after the last day of the calendar month in which the Trust Depositor and the Seller receive the written notice from the Servicer described above; provided, however, that no Contract shall be reacquired pursuant to this Section 7.08(b) if, after giving effect to such reacquisition, the aggregate Principal Balance of the Contracts so reacquired, measured as of the Cutoff Date, would exceed 10% of the Pool Balance as of the Cutoff Date. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision does not limit the obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Contract for which there is a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth in Exhibit J and there shall be no limitation on the Principal Balance or the number of Contracts that are required to be repurchased by the Seller in connection with a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth in Exhibit J.

(d)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Seller under the Transfer and Sale Agreement and described in this Section 7.08 shall not terminate or be deemed released by any party hereto upon a Servicing Transfer pursuant to Article Eight. The reacquisition obligations described in this Section 7.08 are in no way to be satisfied with monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund. The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Trustees, and the Noteholders against the Seller with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller shall be to require the Seller to reacquire the related Contract pursuant to this Section 7.08.

Section 7.09.          Reassignment of Reacquired Contracts. Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account of the Purchase Price as described in Section 7.08, Section 7.10 or Section 7.11, and upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, the Indenture Trustee shall release its lien on and the Trust shall assign to the Trust Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, all of the Trust’s right, title and interest in the reacquired or purchased Contract without recourse, representation or warranty, except as to the absence of liens, charges or encumbrances created by or arising as a result of actions of the Trustees.

Section 7.10.           Servicer’s Purchase Option. On written notice to the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee at least 20 days prior to a Distribution Date, and provided that the Pool Balance is then less than 10% of the Pool Balance as of the Cutoff Date, the Servicer may (but is not required to) purchase on that Distribution Date all outstanding Contracts (and related Contract Assets) at a price equal to the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes on the previous Distribution Date plus the aggregate of the Note Interest Distributable Amount for the current Distribution Date, the Reimbursement Amount (if any) as well as accrued and unpaid Monthly Servicing Fees and the Indenture Trustee Fee to the date of such purchase. Such price shall be deposited in the Collection Account not later than one (1) Business Day before such Distribution Date, against the Owner Trustee’s and Indenture Trustee’s release of the Contracts and the Contract Files to the Servicer.

Section 7.11.           Purchase of Contracts for Breach of Servicing Obligations. Upon a discovery by the Servicer or the Trustees of a breach of any of the covenants of the Servicer set forth in Sections 5.02, 5.06 or 5.09 that materially adversely affects the Trust’s interest in a Contract (without regard to the benefits of the Reserve Fund), the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties; provided that the failure to maintain perfection of the security interest in the Motorcycle securing a Contract in accordance with Section 5.09, shall be deemed to be a breach materially and adversely affecting the Trust’s interest in the Contract or in the related Contracts; provided, further, that the Trustees shall have no duty or obligation to inquire or to investigate the breach by the Servicer of any of such covenants. The Servicer, in accordance with this Section 7.11, shall purchase such Contract at its Purchase Price, two Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date after the last day of the calendar month in which the Servicer becomes aware, or receives written notice from the Trustees of any breach described in the preceding sentence which breach has not been cured; provided, however, that with respect to a breach of any of the covenants of the Servicer set forth in Sections 5.02, 5.06 or 5.09 relating to the Contracts in the aggregate and not to any particular Contract the Servicer may select Contracts (without adverse selection) to purchase such that had such Contracts not been included as part of the Trust Corpus there would have been no breach of such covenant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligation of the Servicer described in this Section 7.11 shall not terminate or be deemed released by any party hereto upon a Servicing Transfer pursuant to Article Eight. The purchase obligation described in this Section 7.11 is in no way to be satisfied with monies in the Reserve Fund. Upon Servicer’s payment of the Purchase Price of the Contract, any Event of Termination pursuant to Section 8.01(b) arising as a result of the Servicer’s breach of any of the covenants set forth in Sections 5.02, 5.06 or 5.09 with respect to such Contract shall be deemed not to have occurred.

Section 7.12.           Dispute Resolution.

(a)            If the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee (acting at the written direction of a Noteholder) or a Noteholder (the “Requesting Party”) requests that the Trust Depositor and/or the Seller repurchase a Contract due to an alleged breach of a representation and warranty set forth on Exhibit J hereto or in Section 3.02 of the Sale and Transfer Agreement (each, a “Repurchase Request”), and the Repurchase Request has not been resolved within 180 days after the Trust Depositor or the Seller receives the Repurchase Request, the Requesting Party, including a Beneficial Owner of a Note, may refer the matter, in its discretion, to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or binding third-party arbitration. The Requesting Party must start the mediation or arbitration proceeding according to the ADR Rules of the ADR Organization within 90 days after the end of the 180-day period. The Trust Depositor and the Seller agree to participate in the dispute resolution method selected by the Requesting Party.

(b)            If the Requesting Party selects mediation for dispute resolution:

(i)               The mediation will be administered by the ADR Organization using its ADR Rules. However, if any ADR Rules are inconsistent with the procedures for mediation stated in this Section 7.12, the procedures in this Section 7.12 will control.

(ii)              A single mediator will be selected by the ADR Organization from a list of neutrals maintained by it according to the ADR Rules. The mediator must be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation and, if possible, consumer finance or asset-backed securitization matters.

(iii)             The mediation will start within 15 days after the selection of the mediator and conclude within 30 days after the start of the mediation.

(iv)             Expenses of the mediation will be allocated to the parties as mutually agreed by them as part of the mediation.

(v)              If the parties fail to agree at the completion of the mediation, the Requesting Party may refer the Repurchase Request to arbitration under this Section 7.12 or may commence legal proceedings to resolve the dispute.

(c)

If the Requesting Party selects arbitration for dispute resolution:

(i)               The arbitration will be administered by the ADR Organization using its ADR Rules. However, if any ADR Rules are inconsistent with the procedures for arbitration stated in this Section 7.12, the procedures in this Section 7.12 will control.

(ii)              A single arbitrator will be selected by the ADR Organization from a list of neutrals maintained by it according to the ADR Rules. The arbitrator must be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation and, if possible, consumer finance or asset-backed securitization matters. The arbitrator will be independent and impartial and will comply with the Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes in effect at the time of the arbitration. Before accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the proceedings within the stated time schedule. The arbitrator may be removed by the ADR Organization for cause consisting of actual bias, conflict of interest or other serious potential for conflict.

(iii)             The arbitrator will have the authority to schedule, hear and determine any motions, according to New York law, and will do so at the motion of any party. Discovery will be completed within 30 days of selection of the arbitrator and will be limited for each party to two witness depositions not to exceed five hours, two interrogatories, one document request and one request for admissions. However, the arbitrator may grant additional discovery on a showing of good cause that the additional discovery is reasonable and necessary. Briefs will be limited to no more than ten pages each, and will be limited to initial statements of the case, motions and a pre-hearing brief. The evidentiary hearing on the merits will start no later than 60 days after selection of the arbitrator and will proceed for no more than six consecutive Business Days with equal time allocated to each party for the presentation of evidence and cross examination. The arbitrator may allow additional time for discovery and hearings on a showing of good cause or due to unavoidable delays.

(iv)             The arbitrator will make its final determination no later than 90 days after its selection. The arbitrator will resolve the dispute according to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and may not modify or change this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in any way. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. In its final determination, the arbitrator will determine and award the expenses of the arbitration (including filing fees, the fees of the arbitrator, expense of any record or transcript of the arbitration and administrative fees) to the parties in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator will be in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator in binding arbitration will be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or State law, and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(v)              By selecting binding arbitration, the Requesting Party is giving up the right to xxx in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

(vi)             The Requesting Party may not bring a putative or certificated class action to arbitration. If this waiver of class action rights is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the Requesting Party agrees that it will bring its claims in a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d)

For each mediation or arbitration:

(i)               Any mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York at the offices of the mediator or arbitrator or at another location selected by the Trust Depositor or the Seller. Any party or witness may participate by teleconference or video conference.

(ii)              The Trust Depositor, the Seller and the Requesting Party will have the right to seek provisional relief from a competent court of law, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or attachment order, if such relief is available by law.

(iii)             Neither the Trust Depositor nor the Seller will be required to produce personally identifiable customer information for purposes of any mediation or arbitration. The existence and details of any unresolved Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings, the nature and amount of any relief sought or granted, any offers or statements made and any discovery taken in the proceeding will be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose in any other mediation, arbitration, litigation or other proceeding. The parties will keep this information confidential and will not disclose or discuss it with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other advisors, as reasonably required in connection with the mediation or arbitration proceeding under this Section 7.12), except as required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If a party to a mediation or arbitration proceeding receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for confidential information of the other party to the mediation or arbitration proceeding, the recipient will promptly notify the other party and will provide the other party with the opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv)             For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to be a Requesting Party in its individual capacity, but solely acting in its capacity as Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the requesting Noteholders.

Section 7.13.           Calculation Agent; Benchmark Determination.

(a)            The Issuer agrees that for so long as there is an Outstanding Amount of the Floating Rate Notes and the Benchmark is 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR, there shall be an agent appointed to obtain the 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR, as applicable, for each Interest Period (the “Calculation Agent”). The Issuer appoints the Indenture Trustee as Calculation Agent for the purposes of (i) obtaining 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR from the FRBNY Website, as indicated herein, for each Interest Period, and (ii) providing the same to the Administrator to calculate the interest rate for the Floating Rate Notes as described herein; and the Indenture Trustee hereby accepts such appointment. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as Calculation Agent or is removed by the Issuer, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent may not resign without a replacement having been duly appointed. The Calculation Agent will obtain 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR, as applicable, for each Interest Period by referring to the applicable published source and will provide the same to the Administrator to calculate the interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes.

(b)            The interest rate for the Floating Rate Notes will vary with the related Benchmark, which initially will be 30-Day Average SOFR. The Calculation Agent will obtain 30-Day Average SOFR and the Administrator will calculate the Interest Rate for the Class A-2b Notes using the method described herein. If the Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, that, as of any date, it is operationally, administratively and technically feasible to use Term SOFR as the Benchmark for the Floating Rate Notes, then the Administrator may notify the Calculation Agent thereof and the Benchmark will be changed to Term SOFR for purposes of calculating interest on the Floating Rate Notes, and the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will have the right to make any applicable SOFR Adjustment Conforming Changes in connection therewith. If the Benchmark is changed to Term SOFR, Term SOFR will be obtained by the Calculation Agent from the published source and at the time determined by the Administrator. If the Benchmark is 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR, on each Benchmark Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall notify the Servicer, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer of the Benchmark for the related Interest Period by email on the Business Day following the date the rate is obtained. If the Benchmark is any rate other than 30-Day Average SOFR or Term SOFR on each Benchmark Determination Date, the Administrator shall notify the Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by email of the Benchmark for the related Interest Period. All determinations of the Benchmark by the Calculation Agent or the Administrator, as applicable, and all calculations of interest on the Floating Rate Notes by the Administrator, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders for all purposes. If a published 30-Day Average SOFR rate is unavailable on a Benchmark Determination Date while the Benchmark is 30-Day Average SOFR, then the 30-Day Average SOFR rate will be 30-Day Average SOFR for the most recent Business Day on which such rate was published. If a published Term SOFR rate is unavailable while the Benchmark is Term SOFR, then the Term SOFR rate will be Term SOFR for the immediately preceding Interest Period.

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrator or any other person in connection with a change to Term SOFR or any SOFR Adjustment Conforming Change, including, but not limited to, any determination with respect to administrative feasibility (whether due to technical, administrative or operational issues) or an adjustment, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the Administrator’s sole discretion, and will become effective without the consent of any other person (including any Noteholder). The holders of the Notes will not have any right to approve or disapprove of these changes or determinations and will be deemed to have waived and released any and all claims against any transaction party relating to any such changes or determinations. None of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Administrator, the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Servicer will have any liability for any action or inaction taken or refrained from being taken by it or the Administrator with respect to any change to Term SOFR and any SOFR Adjustment Conforming Changes or any other matters related to or arising in connection with the foregoing. Each Noteholder and each Beneficial Owner of Notes, by its acceptance of a Note or a beneficial interest in a Note, will be deemed to waive and release any and all claims against the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Administrator, the Sponsor, the Depositor and the Servicer relating to any such determinations.

(i)                If the Administrator determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement determined by the Administrator shall replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Floating Rate Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all such determinations on all subsequent dates (unless and until a subsequent Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date occurs or the Benchmark is changed to Term SOFR). The Administrator shall deliver written notice to each Rating Agency and to the Calculation Agent on any Benchmark Determination Date if, as of the applicable Reference Time, the Administrator has determined with respect to the related Interest Period that there will be a change in the applicable Benchmark or the terms related thereto since the immediately preceding Benchmark Determination Date due to a determination by the Administrator that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred.

(ii)               In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrator shall have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time.

(iii)              Promptly following the determination of a transition to Term SOFR or a Benchmark Replacement and/or the making of any SOFR Adjustment Conforming Changes or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee, and the Servicer shall include in the Monthly Report, the relevant information regarding the Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, any such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes or SOFR Adjustment Conforming Changes and the Interest Period in which Term SOFR or such Benchmark Replacement shall be implemented.

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrator pursuant to this Section 7.13(c) (or pursuant to any capitalized term used in this Section 7.13(c) or in any such capitalized term), including any determination with respect to administrative feasibility (whether due to technical, administrative or operational issues), a tenor, a rate or an adjustment or the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the Administrator’s sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, will become effective without the consent of any other person (including any Noteholder). The Noteholders will not have any right to approve or disapprove of these changes or determinations and will be deemed to have waived and released any and all claims against any transaction party relating to any such changes or determinations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, none of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Administrator, the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Servicer will have any liability for any action or inaction taken or refrained from being taken by it or the Administrator with respect to any Benchmark, Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark Replacement, Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes or any other matters related to or arising in connection with the foregoing. Each Noteholder and each Beneficial Owner of Notes, by its acceptance of a Note or a beneficial interest in a Note, will be deemed to waive and release any and all claims against the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Administrator, the Sponsor, the Depositor and the Servicer relating to any such determinations.

(d)            None of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of 30-Day Average SOFR (or any other Benchmark), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other party to any Transaction Document of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event or related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement Benchmark index, or to determine whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, (iii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what SOFR Adjustment Conforming Changes or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes are appropriate in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Administrator without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the direction of the Administrator in connection therewith.

(e)            None of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document as a result of the unavailability of SOFR or other applicable Benchmark Replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other party to any Transaction Document in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Administrator’s actions or omissions, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Administrator, nor shall any of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the performance of the Administrator.

(b)            Failure on the Servicer’s part to observe or perform in any material respect any covenant or agreement in this Agreement (other than a covenant or agreement the breach of which is specifically addressed elsewhere in this Section) which failure shall (i) materially and adversely affect the rights of Noteholders and (ii) continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to the Servicer by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or (B) to the Servicer and to the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes;

(d)            The Servicer or Trust Depositor shall have commenced a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or shall have consented to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall have consented to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian or sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Servicer or Trust Depositor, as the case may be, or for any substantial part of their respective property, or shall have made any general assignment for the benefit of their respective creditors, or shall have failed to, or admitted in writing its inability to, pay its debts as they become due, or shall have taken any corporate action in furtherance of the foregoing; or

Section 8.02.         Waiver of Event of Termination. The Required Holders may, by written notice delivered to the parties hereto, waive any Event of Termination other than an Event of Termination described in Section 8.01(a).

Section 8.03.         Servicing Transfer. (a) If an Event of Termination has occurred and is continuing and has not been waived pursuant to Section 8.02, (i) the Required Holders or (ii) the Indenture Trustee may, by written notice delivered to the parties hereto, terminate all (but not less than all) of the Servicer’s management, administrative, servicing, custodial and collection functions hereunder (provided, however, that any indemnification obligations of the Servicer that arose prior to such termination shall survive) (such termination being herein called a “Servicing Transfer”).

(b)           Upon receipt of the notice required by Section 8.03(a) (or, if later, on a date designated therein), all rights, benefits, fees, indemnities, authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Contracts, the Contract Files or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee (the “Successor Servicer”); and, without limitation, the Successor Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do any and all acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be held by the Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the Servicer, in the Collection Account, or for its own account in connection with its services hereafter or thereafter received with respect to the Contracts. The Servicer shall transfer to the Successor Servicer (i) all records held by the Servicer relating to the Contracts in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request and (ii) any Contract Files in the Servicer’s possession. In addition, the Servicer shall permit access to its premises (including all computer records and programs) to the Successor Servicer or its designee, and shall pay the reasonable transition expenses of the Successor Servicer. Upon a Servicing Transfer, the Successor Servicer shall also be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee for performing the obligations of the Servicer.

Section 8.04.        Successor Servicer to Act; Appointment of Successor Servicer. On or after a Servicing Transfer pursuant to Section 8.03, the Successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement, to the extent provided in Section 8.06, and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and the terminated Servicer shall be relieved of such responsibilities, duties and liabilities arising after such Servicing Transfer; provided, however, that (i) the Successor Servicer will not assume any obligations of the Servicer described in Section 8.08 and (ii) the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of the Servicer occurring prior to such Servicing Transfer or for any breach by the Servicer of any of its representations and warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. Notwithstanding the above, if the Successor Servicer is legally unable or unwilling to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Required Holders may appoint a successor servicer (other than the original Servicer or an Affiliate of the original Servicer) to act as Servicer. As compensation therefor, the successor servicer shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation equal to the Servicing Fee. The Owner Trustee, Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to make payment for compensation or any other payment in order to effectuate such succession. To the extent the terminated Servicer has made Advances, it shall be entitled to reimbursement of the same notwithstanding its termination hereunder, to the same extent as if it had continued to service the Contracts hereunder.

Section 8.05.        Notification to Noteholders.

Section 11.05.  Severability of Provisions. If one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Notes or the rights of the Holders thereof.

Section 11.06.  Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but except as provided in Sections 6.03, 8.03, 8.11, and 8.12, this Agreement may not be assigned by the Trust Depositor or the Servicer without the prior written consent of Noteholders aggregating not less than 66-2/3% of each Class.

Section 11.07. Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no third party shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Obligors are not third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this Agreement shall include, in addition to manually executed signature pages, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including DocuSign and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, any State law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the UCC.

This Section 11.10 will survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b)            The Trust acknowledges and agrees that each Certificate represents a beneficial interest in the Trust and Trust Corpus only and the Securities do not represent an interest in any assets of the Trust Depositor (including by virtue of any deficiency claim in respect of obligations not paid or otherwise satisfied from the Trust Corpus and proceeds thereof). In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, to the extent that the Trust Depositor enters into other securitization transactions, the Trust acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right, title or interest in or to any assets (or interests therein), other than the Contracts and other assets included in the Trust Estate, conveyed or purported to be conveyed (whether by way of a sale, capital contribution or by the granting of a Lien) by the Trust Depositor to any Person other than the Trust (the “Other Assets”).

To the extent that notwithstanding the agreements contained in this Section, the Trust or any Securityholder, either (i) asserts an interest in or claim to, or benefit from any Other Assets, whether asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor, or (ii) is deemed to have any interest, claim or benefit in or from any Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process, pursuant to applicable provisions of insolvency laws or otherwise (including without limitation pursuant to Section 1111(b) of the federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended) and whether deemed asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor, then the Trust and each Securityholder by accepting a Note or Certificate further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or from the Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Trust Depositor which, under the terms of the documents relating to the securitization of the Other Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of, or otherwise secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to a priority of distribution under applicable law, including insolvency laws, and whether asserted against the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor) including, without limitation, the payment of post-petition interest on such other obligations and liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be deemed a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Securityholder is deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of this Section 11.10 and that the terms and provisions of this Section 11.10 may be enforced by an action for specific performance.

(c)            The provisions of this Section 11.10 shall be for the third party benefit of those expressly entitled to rely thereon and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.11.  Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee.

(a)            Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been executed by Wilmington Trust, National Association solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the Issuer, and in no event shall or any beneficial owner of the Issuer have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Issuer hereunder, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer.
