SECTION 2.1 Agreement to Sell and Contribute on the Closing Date.
On the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement,
VCI agrees to
transfer, assign, set over, sell and otherwise convey to the
Purchaser without
recourse (subject to the obligations herein) on the Closing Date
all of its
right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables, the
Collections
after the Cut-Off Date and the Related Security relating thereto,
described in
an Assignment in the form of Exhibit A delivered on the Closing
Date (the
"Purchased Assets") having a Net Pool Balance as of the Cut-Off
Date equal to
$[____________], which sale shall be effective as of the Cut-Off
Date. The sale,
transfer, assignment and conveyance made hereunder does not
constitute and is
not intended to result in an assumption by the Purchaser of any
obligation of

Person in
connection with the Receivables or the other assets and properties
conveyed
hereunder or any agreement, document or instrument related
thereto.

the Purchased Assets conveyed to the Purchaser on the Closing Date,
the
Purchaser shall pay in cash to VCI on such date an amount equal
to
$[__________], and VCI elects to contribute to the Purchaser such
Purchased
Assets as had an Outstanding Principal Balance equal to
$[__________].
ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of VCI. VCI makes the
following
representations and warranties as of the Closing Date on which the
Purchaser
will be deemed to have relied in acquiring the Purchased Assets.
The
representations and warranties will survive the conveyance of the
Purchased
Assets to the Purchaser, the conveyance of the Purchased Assets to
the Issuer
pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Grant thereof
by the Issuer
to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:
(a)
Existence and Power. VCI is a corporation validly existing and in
good
standing under the laws of its state of organization and has, in
all material
respects, all power and authority required to carry on its business
as now
conducted. VCI has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in
each
jurisdiction where the failure to do so would materially and
adversely affect
the ability of VCI to perform its obligations under the Transaction
Documents or
the enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables or any
other part of the
Purchased Assets.
(b)
Authorization and No Contravention. The execution, delivery and
performance by VCI of each Transaction Document to which it is a
party (i) have
been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of VCI and
(ii) do not
contravene or constitute a default under (A) any applicable law,
rule or
regulation, (B) its organizational documents or (C) any material
agreement,
contract, order or other instrument to which it is a party or its
property is
subject (other than violations of which do not affect the legality,
validity or
enforceability of any of such agreements and which, individually or
in the
aggregate, would not materially and adversely
-2-
<PAGE>
affect the transactions contemplated by, or VCI's ability to
perform its
obligations under, the Transaction Documents).
(c)
No Consent Required. No approval or authorization by, or filing
with,
any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the
execution,
delivery and performance by VCI of any Transaction Document other
than (i) UCC
filings, (ii) approvals and authorizations that have previously
been obtained
and filings that have previously been made and (iii) approvals,
authorizations
or filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a
material adverse
effect on the enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables
or any other
part of the Purchased Assets or would not materially and adversely
affect the
ability of VCI to perform its obligations under the Transaction
Documents.
(d)
Binding Effect. Each Transaction Document to which VCI is a
party
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of VCI
enforceable against
VCI in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may
be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
receivership,
conservatorship or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally and,
if applicable, the rights of creditors of corporations from time to
time in
effect or by general principles of equity.
(e)
No Proceedings. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending
or,
to the knowledge of VCI, threatened against VCI before or by any
Governmental
Authority that (i) assert the invalidity or unenforceability of
this Agreement
or any of the other Transaction Documents, (ii) seeking to prevent
the issuance
of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated by this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (iii) seeking
any
determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect
the
performance by VCI of its obligations under this Agreement or any
of the other
Transaction Documents, or (iv) relate to VCI that would materially
and adversely
affect the federal or Applicable Tax State income, excise,
franchise or similar
tax attributes of the Notes.
(f)
Lien Filings. VCI is not aware of any material judgment, ERISA or
tax
lien filings against VCI.
SECTION 3.2 Representations and Warranties of VCI as to each
Receivable.
VCI hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth on
Schedule I as
to the Receivables, sold, transferred, assigned, set over, sold and
otherwise
conveyed to the Purchaser on which such representations and
warranties the
Purchaser relies in acquiring the Receivables. Such representations
and
warranties shall survive the sale of the Receivables to the Issuer
under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Grant of the Receivables by
the Issuer to
the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Notwithstanding
any statement
to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document, VCI shall
not be required to notify any insurer with respect to any Insurance
Policy
obtained by an Obligor or to notify any Dealer about any aspect of
the
transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
SECTION 3.3 Repurchase upon Breach. Upon discovery by or notice to
the
Purchaser or VCI of a breach of any of the representations and
warranties set
forth in Section 3.2 at the time such representations and
warranties were made
which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer
or the
Noteholders, the party discovering such breach or
-3-
<PAGE>
receiving such notice shall give prompt written notice thereof to
the other
party; provided that delivery of the Servicer's Certificate shall
be deemed to
constitute prompt notice by the Servicer and the Issuer of such
breach;
provided, further, that the failure to give such notice shall not
affect any
obligation of VCI hereunder. If VCI does not correct or cure such
breach prior
to the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day
(or, if VCI
elects, an earlier date) after the date that VCI became aware or
was notified of
such breach, then VCI shall purchase any Receivable materially and
adversely
affected by such breach from the Purchaser on the Payment Date
following the end
of such Collection Period. Any such breach or failure will not be
deemed to have
a material and adverse effect if such breach or failure does not
affect the
ability of the Purchaser (or its assignee) to receive and retain
timely payment
in full on such Receivable. Any such purchase by VCI shall be at a
price equal
to the Repurchase Price. In consideration for such repurchase, VCI
shall make
(or shall cause to be made) a payment to the Purchaser equal to the
Repurchase
Price by depositing such amount into the Collection Account prior
to 11:00 am,
New York City time on such Payment Date. Upon payment of such
Repurchase Price
by VCI, the Purchaser shall release and shall execute and deliver
such
instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case
without recourse or
representation, as may be reasonably requested by VCI to evidence
such release,
transfer or assignment or more effectively vest in VCI or its
designee any
Receivable repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed
that the
obligation of VCI to purchase any Receivable as described above
shall constitute
the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the
Purchaser.
SECTION 3.4 Protection of Title.
(a)
VCI shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to
be
authorized and filed such continuation and other statements, all in
such manner
and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve,
maintain and
protect the interest of the Purchaser under this Agreement in the
Receivables.
VCI shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Purchaser
file-stamped
copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided
above, as soon
as available following such filing.
(b)
VCI shall not change its name, identity, corporate structure or
jurisdiction of organization in any manner that would make any
financing
statement or continuation statement filed by VCI in accordance with
paragraph
(a) above "seriously misleading" within the meaning of Sections
9-506, 9-507 or
9-508 of the UCC, unless it shall have given the Purchaser at least
five days'
prior written notice thereof and, to the extent necessary, shall
have promptly
filed amendments to previously filed financing statements or
continuation
statements described in paragraph (a) above.
(c)
VCI shall give the Purchaser at least ten days' prior written
notice of
any change of location of VCI for purposes of Section 9-307 of the
UCC and shall
have taken all action prior to making such change (or shall have
made
arrangements to take such action substantially simultaneously with
such change,
if it is not possible to take such action in advance) reasonably
necessary or
advisable in the opinion of the Purchaser to amend all previously
filed
financing statements or continuation statements described in
paragraph (a)
above.
(d)
VCI shall maintain (or shall cause its Sub-Servicer to
maintain)
accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in
sufficient detail
to permit (i) the reader thereof to
-4-
<PAGE>
know at any time the status of such Receivable, including payments
and
recoveries made and payment owing (and the nature of each) and
(ii)
reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect
to) each
Receivable and the amounts from time to time deposited in the
Collection Account
in respect of such Receivable.
(e)
VCI shall maintain (or shall cause its Sub-Servicer to maintain)
its
computer systems so that, from time to time after the conveyance
under this
Agreement of the Receivables, the master computer records
(including any backup
archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the
interest of the
Purchaser (or any subsequent assignee of the Purchaser) in such
Receivable and
that such Receivable is owned by such Person. Indication of such
Person's
interest in a Receivable shall not be deleted from or modified on
such computer
systems until, and only until, the related Receivable shall have
been paid in
full or repurchased.
(f)
If at any time VCI shall propose to sell, grant a security interest
in
or otherwise transfer any interest in motor vehicle receivables to
any
prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, VCI shall give
to such
prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes,
records or
printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if
they shall
refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate
clearly that
such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Purchaser (or any
subsequent
assignee of the Purchaser).
SECTION 3.5 Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances
and grants
of security interests pursuant to this Agreement and the other
Transaction
Documents, VCI shall not sell, pledge, assign or transfer the
Receivables or
other property transferred to the Purchaser to any other Person, or
grant,
create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than
Permitted Liens)
on any interest therein, and VCI shall defend the right, title and
interest of
the Purchaser in, to and under such Receivables or other property
transferred to
the Purchaser against all claims of third parties claiming through
or under VCI.
SECTION 3.6 Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
VCI
hereby makes the perfection representations, warranties and
covenants attached
set forth on Schedule II hereto to the Purchaser and the Purchaser
shall be
deemed to have relied on such representations, warranties and
covenants in
acquiring the Purchased Assets.
ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 4.1 Transfers Intended as Sale; Security Interest.
(a)
Each of the parties hereto expressly intends and agrees that
the
transfers contemplated and effected under this Agreement are
complete and
absolute sales and transfers rather than pledges or assignments of
only a
security interest and shall be given effect as such for all
purposes. It is
further the intention of the parties hereto that the Receivables
and related
Purchased Assets shall not be part of VCI's estate in the event of
a bankruptcy
or insolvency of VCI. The sales and transfers by VCI of the
Receivables and
related Purchased Assets hereunder are and shall be without
recourse to, or
representation or warranty (express or implied) by, VCI, except as
otherwise
specifically provided herein. The limited rights of recourse
specified herein
-5-
<PAGE>
against VCI are intended to provide a remedy for breach of
representations and
warranties rela
