Section 3.01 Review Notices and Identification of Review Transaction Leases.
On receipt of a Review Notice from the [Indenture Trustee] according to Section 7.5(c) of the Indenture, the Asset Representations Reviewer will start a Review. The Servicer will provide the list of Review Transaction Leases to the Asset Representations Reviewer promptly upon receipt of the Review Notice.
The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be obligated to start, and will not start, a Review until a Review Notice and the related list of Review Transaction Leases is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer is not obligated to verify (i) whether the conditions to the initiation of the Review and the issuance of a Review Notice described in Section 7.5 of the Indenture were satisfied or (ii) the accuracy or completeness of the list of Review Transaction Leases provided by the Servicer.
Section 3.02 Review Materials.
(a) Access to Review Materials. Within [60] days of receipt of a Review Notice, the Servicer will provide the Asset Representations Reviewer with access to the Review Materials for all Review Transaction Leases in one or more of the following ways, at its option: (i) by providing access to the Servicer’s systems, either remotely or at an office of the Servicer, (ii) by electronic posting to a password-protected website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access, (iii) by providing originals or photocopies at an office of the Servicer or (iv) in another manner agreed by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Servicer may redact or remove Personally Identifiable Information from the Review Materials without changing the meaning or usefulness of the Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to rely in good faith, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects, and not misleading in any material respect.
(b) Missing or Insufficient Review Materials. Upon receipt of the Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will review the Review Materials to determine if any Review Materials are missing or insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test. If the Asset Representations Reviewer determines any missing or insufficient Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer promptly, and in any event no less than [●] [Business Day][days] before completing the Review. The Servicer will have [●] [Business Day][days] to give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct the insufficiency. If the missing Review Materials or other documents have not been provided by the Servicer within [●] [Business Day][days], the related Review Report will report a Test Fail for each Test that requires use of the missing or insufficient Review Materials.
5
Section 3.03 Performance of Reviews.
(a) Test Procedures. For a Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform, for each Review Transaction Lease, the Tests for each Eligible Representation. In the course of its review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will use the Review Materials listed in Schedule A as specified in the description of each Test under Schedule B. For each Test and Review Transaction Lease, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”) or if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”). During the course of its review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide the Issuing Entity and the Servicer with a preliminary list of any Test Fail and the issues identified and, at that time, the Servicer has the option of electing to provide additional Review Materials or information which the Asset Representations Reviewer will analyze and consider in preparing the Review Report.
(b) Review Period. The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Review within [60] days of receiving access to the Review Materials. However, if missing or additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer as described in Sections 3.02(b) or 3.03(a), the Review period will be extended for an additional [30] days.
(c) Completion of Review for Certain Review Transaction Leases. Following the delivery of the list of the Review Transaction Leases and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if all amounts owing under a Review Transaction Lease are paid in connection with the scheduled expiration or early termination of such Review Transaction Lease or otherwise satisfied or reallocated from the 20[●]-[●] Reference Pool in accordance with Section 2.3(c) of the Exchange Note Sale Agreement or Section 13.12 of the Exchange Note Servicing Supplement. On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of the related Review Transaction Lease, and the Review of such Review Transaction Leases will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”). In this case, the related Review Report will indicate a Test Complete for such Review Transaction Lease and the related reason.
(d) Previously Reviewed Transaction Leases; Duplicative Tests. If any Review Transaction Lease was included in a prior Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not conduct additional Tests on such Review Transaction Lease, but will include the previously reported Test results in the Review Report for the current Review. If the same Test is required for more than one Eligible Representation, the Asset Representations Reviewer will only perform the Test once for each Review Transaction Lease, but will report the results of the Test for each applicable Eligible Representation on the Review Report.
(e) Termination of Review. If a Review is in process and the Notes will be paid in full on the next [Payment Date], the Servicer or the Administrator will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer no less than [●] days before that [Payment Date]. On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Review immediately and will not be obligated to deliver a Review Report.
(f) Review Systems; Personnel. The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain business process management and/or other systems necessary to ensure that it can perform each Test and, on execution of this Agreement, will load each Test into these systems. The Asset
6
Representations Reviewer will ensure that these systems allow for each Review Transaction Lease and the related Review Materials to be individually tracked and stored as contemplated by this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain adequate staff that is properly trained to conduct Reviews as required by this Agreement.
Section 3.04 Review Report.
Within 5 days after the end of the applicable Review period under Section 3.03(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer will deliver to the Administrator on behalf of the Issuing Entity, the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee a review report (the “Review Report”) indicating for each Review Transaction Lease whether there was a Test Pass, Test Fail or Test Complete for each related Test. For each Test Fail or Test Complete, the Review Report will indicate the related reason, including (for example) whether the Review Transaction Lease was a Test Fail as a result of missing or incomplete Review Materials. The Review Report will contain a summary of the Review results to be included in the Issuing Entity’s Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which the Review Report is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that the Review Report does not contain any PII. On reasonable request of the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide additional details on the Test results.
Section 3.05 Review Representatives.
(a) Servicer Representative. The Servicer will designate one or more representatives who will be available to assist the Asset Representations Reviewer in performing the Review, including responding to requests and answering questions from the Asset Representations Reviewer about access to Review Materials on the Servicer’s or World Omni’s originations, lease or other systems, obtaining missing or insufficient Review Materials and/or providing clarification of any Review Materials or Tests.

Section 3.06 Dispute Resolution.
If a Review Transaction Lease that was the subject of a Review becomes the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 2.3(d) of the Exchange Note Sale Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of a party to the proceeding. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer for its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the requesting party for the dispute resolution and, for any mediation proceeding, will be paid by
7
a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the mutual agreement of such parties and, for any binding arbitration, will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the arbitrator for the dispute resolution according to Section 2.3(d) of the Exchange Note Sale Agreement. If not paid by a party to the dispute resolution, the expenses will be reimbursed in accordance with Section 4.02(d) of this Agreement.
Section 3.07 Limitations on Review Obligations.
(a) Review Process Limitations. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation (i) to determine whether the Delinquency Trigger has been met or exceeded or whether the required percentage of Noteholders has voted to direct a Review under the Indenture, (ii) to determine which Transaction Leases are subject to a Review, (iii) to obtain or confirm the validity of the Review Materials, (iv) to obtain missing or insufficient Review Materials except as specifically described herein, (v) to take any action or cause any other party to take any action under any of the Transaction Documents to enforce any remedies for breaches of representations or warranties about the Eligible Representations, (vi) to determine the reason for the delinquency of any Review Transaction Lease, the creditworthiness of any Closed-End Obligor, the overall quality of any Review Transaction Lease or the compliance by the Servicer with its covenants with respect to the servicing of such Review Transaction Lease, or (vii) to establish cause, materiality or recourse for any failed Test as described in Section 3.03.
(b) Testing Procedure Limitations. The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Review Transaction Lease or to provide any information other than a Review Report.

(a) Indemnification. The [Issuing Entity will, or will cause the Servicer to,] indemnify the Asset Representations Reviewer and its officers, directors, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Person”), for all costs, expenses, losses, damages and liabilities resulting from the performance of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s obligations under this Agreement (including the reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and other fees and expenses of defending itself against any loss, damage or liability), but excluding any cost, expense, loss, damage or liability resulting from (i) the Asset Representations Reviewer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence, (ii) the Asset Representations Reviewer’s breach of any of its representations or warranties in this Agreement or (iii) the Asset Representation Reviewer’s breach of any of its obligations in Sections 4.08 and 4.09 of this Agreement.

Each of the Issuing Entity, the Servicer and the Administrator will, and will cause its authorized representatives to, hold in confidence the information except if disclosure may be required by law or if the Issuing Entity, the Servicer or the Administrator reasonably determines that it is required to make the disclosure under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain all relevant books, records, reports and other documents and materials for a period of at least two years after the termination of its obligations under this Agreement.

The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to hold and treat Confidential Information given to it under this Agreement in confidence and under the terms and conditions of this Section 4.08, and will implement and maintain safeguards to further assure the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. The Confidential Information will not, without the prior consent of the Issuing Entity and the Servicer, be disclosed or used by the Asset Representations Reviewer, or its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or affiliates, including legal counsel (collectively, the "Information Recipients") other than for the
12
purposes of performing Reviews of Review Transaction Leases or performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates to not (i) purchase or sell securities issued by the Depositor or its Affiliates or special purpose entities on the basis of Confidential Information or (ii) use the Confidential Information for the preparation of research reports, newsletters or other publications or similar communications.

(c) Protection. The Asset Representations Reviewer will protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of Confidential Information, and shall use at least the same standard of care that it uses to protect its own confidential information and not less than a reasonable standard of care. The Asset Representations Reviewer acknowledges that Personally Identifiable Information is also subject to the additional requirements in Section 4.09.
(d) Disclosure. If the Asset Representations Reviewer is required by applicable law, regulation, rule or order issued by an administrative, governmental, regulatory or judicial authority to disclose part of the Confidential Information, it may disclose the Confidential Information.

13
Entity's and the Servicer's pursuit of a proper protective order or other relief for the disclosure of the Confidential Information.

When permitted, the disclosure of or access to Issuing Entity PII will be limited to the specific information necessary for the individual to complete the assigned task. The Asset Representations Reviewer will inform personnel with access to Issuing Entity PII of the confidentiality requirements in this Agreement and train its personnel with access to Issuing Entity PII on the proper use and protection of Issuing Entity PII.
(ii) The Asset Representations Reviewer will not sell, disclose, provide or exchange Issuing Entity PII with or to any third party without the prior written consent of the Issuing Entity and the Servicer.

(iv) The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to provide Issuing Entity and Servicer with information regarding its and its representatives’ privacy and information security systems, policies and procedures as Issuing Entity or Servicer may reasonably request relating to its compliance with this Agreement and applicable Privacy Laws. The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to provide training in the Privacy Laws and Asset Representations Reviewer’s information security policies to all Asset Representations Reviewer personnel whose duties pursuant to this Agreement could bring them in contact with PII. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall comply at all times with Servicer’s information security policies and procedures in connection with any access to or use of Servicer’s network or systems.
(d) Notice of Breach. The Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Issuing Entity and the Servicer promptly in the event of an actual or reasonably suspected security breach, unauthorized access, misappropriation or other compromise of the security, confidentiality or integrity of Issuing Entity PII and, where applicable, immediately take action to prevent any further breach.
15
(e) Return or Disposal of Issuing Entity PII. Except where return or disposal is prohibited by applicable law, promptly on the earlier of the completion of the Review or the request of the Issuing Entity or the Servicer, all Issuing Entity PII in any medium in the Asset Representations Reviewer's possession or under its control will be (i) destroyed in a manner that prevents its recovery or restoration or (ii) if so directed by the Issuing Entity or the Servicer, returned to the Issuing Entity or the Servicer, as applicable, without the Asset Representations Reviewer retaining any actual or recoverable copies, in both cases, without charge to the Issuing Entity or the Servicer. Where the Asset Representations Reviewer retains Issuing Entity PII, the Asset Representations Reviewer will limit the Asset Representations Reviewer's further use or disclosure of Issuing Entity PII to that required by applicable law.
(f) Compliance; Modification. The Asset Representations Reviewer will cooperate with and provide information to the Issuing Entity regarding the Asset Representations Reviewer's compliance with this Section 4.09.

(h) Affiliates and Third Parties. If the Asset Representations Reviewer processes the PII of the Issuing Entity's Affiliates or a third party when performing a Review, and if such Affiliate or third party is identified to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such Affiliate or third party is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 4.09, and this Agreement is intended to benefit the Affiliate or third party.
