Article II
Conveyance of Receivables
Section 2.01. Conveyance of Receivables.
(a) In consideration of the Depositor's delivery to or upon
the order of the Seller on the Closing Date of $_________________
(the
"Purchase Price"), the Seller does hereby irrevocably sell,
transfer, assign,
set over and otherwise convey to the Depositor, without recourse
(subject to
the obligations of the Seller set forth herein) all right, title,
and interest
of the Seller, whether now or hereinafter acquired, in and to the
Trust
Property.
(b) The transfer, assignment and conveyance made hereunder
shall not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption
by the
Depositor of any obligation of the Seller to the Obligors or any
other Person
in connection with the Receivables and the other Trust Property or
any
agreement, document or instrument related thereto.
(c) The Seller and the Depositor intend that the transfer of
assets by the Seller to the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement be
a sale of
the ownership interest in such assets to the Depositor, rather than
the mere
granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing. In the
event, however,
that such transfer is deemed not to be a sale but to be the grant
of a
security interest to secure a borrowing, the Seller shall be deemed
to have
hereby granted to the Depositor a security interest in all
accounts, money,
chattel paper, securities, instruments, documents, deposit
accounts,
certificates of deposit, letters of credit, advices of credit,
banker's
acceptances, uncertificated securities, general intangibles,
contract rights,
goods and other property consisting of, arising from or relating to
such Trust
Property, which security interest shall be perfected and of first
priority,
and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law.
Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 7.04
hereof, the
Depositor may sell, transfer and assign to the Issuer (i) all or
any portion
of the assets assigned to the Depositor hereunder, (ii) all or any
portion of
the Depositor's rights against the Seller under this Agreement and
(iii) all
proceeds thereof. Such assignment may be made by the Depositor with
or without
an assignment by the Depositor of its rights under this Agreement,
and without
further notice to or acknowledgement from the Seller. The Seller
waives, to
the extent permitted under applicable law, all claims, causes of
action and
remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of
setoff), against
the Depositor or any assignee of the Depositor relating to such
action by the
Depositor in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Sale and
Servicing Agreement.
Section 2.02. The Closing. The sale and purchase of the Trust
Property shall take place at a closing at the office of Sidley
Austin LLP, New
York, New York on the Closing Date, simultaneously with the closing
under (a)
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (b) the Indenture and (c) the
Trust
Agreement.

assignment of
the Receivables by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale
and
Servicing Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables by the Issuer

all
of all Liens and rights of others, and the transfer has been
perfected under applicable law or (ii) a first priority
perfected
security interest in each Receivable.
(iv) Receivable Files. The Receivable Files shall
be kept at one or more of the locations specified in Schedule

contains customary and enforceable provisions such that the
rights
and remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for realization

payments (provided that the payment in the last month in the life
of

interest method].
(vi) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable and each
sale of
the related Financed Vehicle complied at the time it was
originated or made, and complies on and after the Cut-off Date,
in
all material respects with all requirements of applicable

state, and local laws, and regulations thereunder, including
usury
laws, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit
Opportunity
Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal Trade Commission

sale.
(vii) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable
constitutes the legal, valid, and binding payment obligation in
writing of the Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in
all
material respects in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization,
liquidation and other similar laws and equitable principles
relating
to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights.
(viii) No Government Obligor. No Receivable is due
from the United States of America or any state or from any
agency,
department, instrumentality or political subdivision of the
United
States of America or any state or local municipality and no
Receivable is due from a business except to the extent that
such
receivable has a personal guaranty.
(ix) Security Interest in Financed Vehicle.
Immediately prior to the sale and assignment thereof to the
Depositor
as herein contemplated, each Receivable was secured by a
validly
perfected first priority security interest in the Financed Vehicle
in
favor of the Seller as secured party or all necessary and
appropriate
action with respect to such Receivable had been taken to perfect
a
first priority security interest in the related Financed Vehicle
in
favor of the Seller as secured party, which security interest
is
assignable and has been so assigned by the Seller to the
Depositor.
(x) Receivables in Force. No Receivable has been
satisfied, subordinated, or rescinded, nor has any Financed
Vehicle
been released from the Lien granted by the related Receivabl
