     This SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of August 19, 2005 (as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect, this “Agreement”), is among GS AUTO LOAN TRUST 2005-1 (the “Issuer”), a Delaware statutory trust, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ASSET BACKED SECURITIES CORP., a Delaware corporation (the “Depositor”), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Indenture Trustee (in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ MORTGAGE COMPANY, a New York limited partnership, as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”).

     WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to purchase from the Depositor a portfolio of receivables and related property consisting of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and loans;

     WHEREAS, the Servicer is willing to service such receivables on behalf of the Issuer.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS AND USAGE

     Except as otherwise specified herein or as the context may otherwise require, capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein are defined in Appendix A hereto, which also contains rules as to usage that shall be applicable herein.

ARTICLE II

TRANSFERRED ASSETS

     SECTION 2.1 Conveyance of Transferred Assets; Intent of the Parties. In consideration of the Issuer’s delivery to, or upon the order of, the Depositor of the Notes and the Certificates, the Depositor does hereby irrevocably sell, transfer, assign and otherwise convey to the Issuer without recourse (subject to the obligations herein) all right, title and interest of the Depositor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Transferred Assets. The sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance made hereunder shall not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Issuer of any obligation of the Depositor or any other Person to the Obligors or any other Person in connection with the Receivables and the other Transferred Assets or any agreement, document or instrument related thereto. The Depositor and the Issuer intend that the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be a sale and not a secured borrowing.

     SECTION 2.2 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor regarding the Receivables. The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties with respect to the Receivables, on which the Issuer relies in purchasing the Receivables and pledging the same to the Indenture Trustee. Such representations and warranties speak as of the Closing Date, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

     (i) Schedule of Receivables. No selection procedures adverse to the Securityholders have been used by the Depositor in selecting the Receivables from all receivables owned by the Depositor which meet the selection criteria specified herein.

     (ii) No Sale or Transfer. No Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Depositor to any Person other than the Issuer.

     (iii) Good Title. Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Issuer herein contemplated, each Receivable was free and clear of all Liens created by the Depositor; and, immediately upon the transfer thereof, the Issuer has either (i) good and marketable title to each Receivable, free and clear of all of all Liens and rights of others to the extent created by the Depositor and the transfer has been perfected under applicable law or (ii) a first priority perfected security interest in the Depositor’s rights in each Receivable.

     SECTION 2.3 Repurchase upon Breach. (a) Each of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall inform the other parties to this Agreement promptly, in writing, upon the discovery by it of any breach of the Depositor’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 2.2 which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Issuer in any Receivable. Unless the breach shall have been cured by the last day of the second Collection Period following written notice to the Indenture Trustee of such breach, the Depositor shall repurchase any Receivable for which the interest of the Issuer is materially and adversely affected by such breach as of such last day (or, at the Depositor’s option, the last day of the first Collection Period following the discovery). Any such breach shall not be deemed to have a material and adverse effect on the interests of the Issuer if such breach does not affect the ability of the Issuer to receive and retain timely payment in full on the related Receivable. The Depositor shall remit the related Purchase Amount (less any Liquidation Proceeds deposited, or to be deposited, in the Collection Account with respect to such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3), in the manner specified in Section 4.4.

          (b) In addition to the foregoing repurchase obligations, if the interest of the Issuer in any Receivable is materially and adversely affected by a breach by an Originator of a representation or warranty relating to such Receivable in an Originator Purchase Agreement, the Depositor shall repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer but only if the Originator shall in fact repurchase such Receivable. The Depositor shall remit the purchase price paid by the Originator with respect to such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3 of this Agreement to or at the direction of the Issuer or Indenture Trustee, as the case may be.

          (c) The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of any of the representations and warranties referred to in Sections 2.3(a) and (b) shall be the repurchase of the related Receivables pursuant to Section 2.3(a) or (b), as applicable.

          (d) Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the

Sale and Servicing Agreement

repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 2.3 or the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement.

          (e) With respect to all Receivables purchased pursuant to this Section 2.3, the Issuer shall assign to the Depositor or the applicable Originator, as the case may be, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and all security and documents relating thereto.

     SECTION 2.4 Custody of Receivable Files. The Issuer hereby revocably appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act as the agent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee as custodian of the following documents or instruments, which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, with respect to each Receivable:

     (i) the original executed Receivable or, if no such original exists, a copy thereof;

     (ii) the original credit application fully executed by the Obligor or a photocopy thereof or a record thereof on a computer file, diskette or on microfiche;

     (iii) the original certificate of title or such documents that the related Receivables Servicer keeps on file, in accordance with its customary procedures, evidencing the security interest of the related Originator in the related Financed Vehicle; and

     (iv) any and all other documents (including any computer file, diskette or microfiche) that the Servicer or the related Receivables Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its or the related Receivables Servicer’s customary procedures, relating to a Receivable.

     The Servicer shall be permitted to appoint the applicable Receivables Servicer to hold the documents and instruments relating to those Receivables for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility to monitor the Servicer’s (or the Receivables Servicers’) performance as custodian and shall have no liability in connection with the Servicer’s (or the Receivables Servicers’) performance of such duties hereunder.

     SECTION 2.5 Representations and Warranties as to the Security Interest of the Issuer in the Receivables. The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee. The representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the sale of the Trust Property to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

          (a) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Issuer, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.

Sale and Servicing Agreement

          (b) The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC.

          (c) Immediately prior to its transfer to the Issuer, each Receivable was free and clear of any Lien created by the Depositor.

          (d) The Depositor has caused or will have caused, within ten days, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted to the Issuer hereunder. Each such financing statement will contain a statement to the following effect “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured Party.”

          (e) Other than the security interest granted to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Depositor that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Issuer hereunder or that has been terminated. The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it.

          (f) The contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables do not have any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Seller or the Issuer.

     Each of the parties hereto agrees that it shall not, without satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, waive any of the representations and warranties in this Section 2.5.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES AND TRUST PROPERTY

     SECTION 3.1 Duties of Servicer. The Servicer shall (or shall in accordance with Section 6.5 require the Receivables Servicers to) manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) exercises with respect to all comparable new or used automobile and light-duty truck receivables that it (or the related Receivables Servicer) services for itself or others. The duties the Servicer shall be responsible to delegate to the Receivables Servicers include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on such Receivables, investigating delinquencies, reporting tax information to Obligors and accounting for collections. The Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies and procedures in performing its duties as Servicer or those standards of the applicable Receivables Servicer set forth in the related Receivables Servicing Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is hereby (and each Receivables Servicer pursuant to its Receivables Servicing Agreement is thereby) authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself (or the Servicer, in the case of a Receivables Servicer), the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, or any of them, any and

Sale and Servicing Agreement

all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or to the Financed Vehicles securing such Receivables. If the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuer (in the case of a Receivable other than a Purchased Receivable) shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer). If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, the Issuer shall, at the Servicer’s expense and direction (or, to the extent permitted in the related Receivables Servicing Agreement, the related Receivables Servicer’s expense and direction), take steps to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, or any of them. The Issuer shall furnish the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

     SECTION 3.2 Collection of Receivable Payments. The Servicer shall (or shall in accordance with Section 6.5 require the related Receivables Servicer to) make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to all comparable new or used automobile and light-duty truck receivables that it services for itself and others. To the extent the Indenture Trustee becomes aware of any breach by a Receivables Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall, to the extent legally entitled pursuant to the terms thereof, enforce (or cause the enforcement of) the obligations of such Receivables Servicer under the related Receivables Servicing Agreement in all material respects until such Receivables Servicing Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Servicer and Ford Credit, as a Receivables Servicer, shall not be required to make any collection, repossession or liquidation efforts with respect to the Ford Credit Receivables after January 28, 2012.

     SECTION 3.3 Realization Upon Receivables. On behalf of the Issuer, the Servicer shall (or shall require the related Receivables Servicer to) use reasonable efforts, consistent with its (or the related Receivables Servicer’s) customary standards, policies and procedures, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the Financed Vehicle securing any Receivable as to which the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) shall have determined to be uncollectible. The Servicer shall (or shall require the related Receivables Servicer to) follow such customary standards, policies and procedures as it (or the related Receivables Servicer) shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of comparable receivables, which may include selling the Financed Vehicle at public or private sale. The Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) shall be entitled to recover from proceeds all reasonable expenses incurred by it in the course of converting the Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds. The Liquidation Proceeds (net of such expenses, if applicable) realized in connection with any such action with respect to a Receivable shall be deposited by the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) into the Collection Account in the manner specified in Section 4.2 and shall be applied to reduce (or to satisfy, as the case may be) the Purchase Amount of the Receivable, if such Receivable is to be repurchased by the Depositor or a Seller pursuant to Section 2.3 or is to be purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.6. The foregoing shall be subject to the provision that, in any case in which

Sale and Servicing Agreement

the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer (or the related Receivables Servicer) shall not be required to expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses.

     SECTION 3.4 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles. The Servicer shall (or shall require the related Receivables Servicer to), in accordance with its (or the related Receivables Servicer’s) customary procedures, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Issuer hereby authorizes the Servicer (or a Receivables Servicer) to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason, in either case, when the Servicer has knowledge of the need for such re-perfection.

     SECTION 3.5 Covenants of Servicer. The Servicer (or a Receivables Servicer) may grant extensions, rebates, deferrals, amendments, modifications or adjustments on a Receivable in accordance with its customary practices (or the servicing standard of the applicable Receivables Servicer set forth in the related Receivables Servicing Agreement); provided, however, that the Servicer will purchase such Receivable in the manner provided in Section 3.6 if the Servicer (or a Receivables Servicer) does any of the following:

     (i) releases the Financed Vehicle securing any Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except in the event of payment in full by or on behalf of the Obligor thereunder, satisfaction of the payment obligation evidenced by such Receivable, repossession, discounted settlement, abandonment or by operation of law, in each case in accordance with the Servicer’s (or the applicable Receivables Servicer’s) customary standards, policies and procedures,

     (ii) impairs the rights of the Issuer in the Receivables, or

     (iii) takes any other action with respect to a Receivable which results in a repurchase by a Receivables Servicer of the Receivable under the applicable Originator Agreement.

The Servicer (or any Receivables Servicer) may in its discretion waive any late payment charge or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer (or any Receivables Servicer) may refinance any Receivable if the full Principal Balance of such Receivable is deposited into the Collection Account, and the receivable created by such refinancing shall not be property of the Issuer.

     SECTION 3.6 Purchase of Receivables Upon Breach. (a) Each of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall inform the other parties to this Agreement promptly, in writing, upon the discovery by it of any breach of Section 3.4 or 3.5 which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Issuer in any Receivable. Unless the breach

Sale and Servicing Agreement

shall have been cured by the last day of the second Collection Period following written notice to the Indenture Trustee of such breach, the Servicer shall repurchase any Receivable, the interest of the Issuer in which is materially and adversely affected by such breach as of such last day (or, at the Servicer’s option, the last day of the first Collection Period following the discovery). The Servicer shall remit the related Purchase Amount (less any Liquidation Proceeds deposited, or to be deposited, in the Collection Account with respect to such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3), in the manner specified in Section 4.4.

          (b) Each of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Issuer shall inform the other parties to this Agreement promptly, in writing, upon the discovery by it of any action with respect to a Receivable which results in a requirement by Ford Credit, Huntington or OSB to repurchase the Receivable. Upon its receipt of notice as described in the preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee shall notify (or shall cause notice to be delivered to) Ford Credit, Huntington or OSB, as the case may be, of such repurchase requirement and, unless the action requiring the repurchase shall have been cured within the cure period specified in the applicable Originator Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce (or cause the Depositor to enforce) the obligation of Ford Credit, Huntington or OSB, as the case may be, to repurchase such Receivable. The Servicer shall cause the Purchase Amount (less any Liquidation Proceeds deposited, or to be deposited, in the Collection Account with respect to such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3) from such purchase to be remitted in the manner specified in Section 4.4.

          (c) The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of Section 3.4 or 3.5 shall be the repurchase of the related Receivables pursuant to Section 3.6(a) or (b), as applicable.

          (d) Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 3.6.

          (e) With respect to all Receivables purchased pursuant to this Section 3.6, the Issuer shall assign to the Servicer, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and all security and documents relating thereto.

     SECTION 3.7 Servicer Fees. The Servicer shall be entitled to the Net Servicing Fee, which shall be payable as provided in Section 8.2 of the Indenture. The Receivables Servicers shall be entitled to the Receivables Servicer Servicing Fee. To the extent that a Receivables Servicer does not retain its Receivables Servicer Servicing Fee from collections on Receivables serviced by it, the Servicer will pay any portion of that Receivables Servicer Servicing Fee that is not so retained directly to that Receivables Servicer.

     SECTION 3.8 Monthly Noteholder Report. On or prior to the Determination Date for each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee will deliver to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, each Note Paying Agent and each Certificate Paying Agent, with a copy to the Rating Agencies, a report (the “Monthly Noteholder Report”), based on Receivables information provided by SST, containing all information necessary to make the transfers and distributions on each Payment Date pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Indenture for the Collection Period preceding the date of such

Sale and Servicing Agreement

Monthly Noteholder Report and the written statements to be furnished by the Owner Trustee to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.7 hereof and by the Indenture Trustee to the Noteholders pursuant to Section 4.7 hereof and Section 7.4 of the Indenture. SST will be responsible for aggregating the monthly reports prepared by SST as a Receivables Servicer and the other Receivables Servicers to the extent those reports are forwarded to SST by the Servicer or the other Receivables Servicers; provided, however, that SST will not be liable for any incomplete report to the extent that SST did not receive the information required to complete that report from another Receivables Servicer. Neither the Servicer, the Issuer, SST, the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall have any liability or responsibility for any inaccuracy in any Monthly Noteholder Report resulting from any inaccuracy in any information provided by a Receivables Servicer.

     SECTION 3.9 Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Event of Servicing Termination. (a) The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency on or before March 31 of each year beginning March 31, 2006, an Officer’s Certificate, dated as of December 31 of the preceding calendar year, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period (or such shorter period in the case of the first such certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such period, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

          (b) The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency promptly after having obtained actual knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer’s Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Servicing Termination under Section 7.1.

     SECTION 3.10 Annual Independent Certified Public Accountant’s Report. The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, who may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor or the Receivables Servicers, to deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee on or before March 31 of each year beginning March 31, 2006 with respect to the twelve months ended on the immediately preceding December 31 (or such shorter period in the case of the first such report) a report to the effect that such firm has examined the servicing functions of the Servicer for such period, including the applicable party’s procedures and records relating to such party’s servicing of the Receivables under this Agreement and that, on the basis of such examination, such firm is of the opinion that the applicable servicing by such party has been conducted during such period in compliance with this Agreement, except for (a) such exceptions as such firm believes to be immaterial and (b) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such firm’s report. In addition, such report shall set forth the procedures performed in conjunction with the examination.

     The report will also indicate that the firm is independent of the Servicer (or a Receivables Servicer, as applicable) within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Sale and Servicing Agreement

     In the event such independent certified public accountants require the Indenture Trustee to agree to the procedures to be performed by such firm in the report required to be prepared pursuant to this Section 3.10, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee has not made any independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.

     SECTION 3.11 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables. In each case subject to the Servicer’s rights to access under the related Receivables Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall provide to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee access to the Receivable Files without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer or the respective offices of the Receivables Servicers, as applicable. Nothing in this Section 3.11 shall affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.11.

     SECTION 3.12 Servicer Expenses. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder, including fees, expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) and disbursements of the independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer and expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Noteholders and Certificateholders, except that each Receivables Servicer will be entitled to any Supplemental Servicing Fee.

     SECTION 3.13 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002. To the extent permitted by applicable law and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission as interpreted by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Depositor shall furnish in a timely manner for filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the certification required by Section 302 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002 in respect of the Issuer.

          (b) The Indenture Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, cause to be established and maintained two Eligible Deposit Accounts in the name “JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as Indenture Trustee and as secured party for GS Auto Loan Trust 2005-1”, initially at the corporate trust department of the Indenture Trustee, which shall be designated as the “Collection Account” and the “Principal Distribution Account,” respectively. The Collection Account and the Principal Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee. In addition, the Collection Account and the Principal Distribution Account shall be established and maintained at an institution which agrees in writing that for so long as the Notes are outstanding it will comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Article 8 of the UCC) originated by the Indenture Trustee without further consent of the Issuer.

On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall provide to each Noteholder of record as of the most recent Record Date (with copies to the Rating Agencies and each Note Paying Agent) and shall provide a hard copy of the Monthly Noteholder Report to the Owner Trustee for distribution to each Certificateholder pursuant to Section 5.05 of the Trust Agreement, setting forth for the

     then the Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify each Rating Agency, and in each and every case, so long as an Event of Servicing Termination shall not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding (or, if no Notes are Outstanding, Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating at least a majority), by notice then given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee if given by the Noteholders and to the Owner Trustee if given by the Certificateholders and in each case with a copy to the Rating Agencies) may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates or the Trust Property or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 7.2; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the predecessor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things

Sale and Servicing Agreement

necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and related documents, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delay or failure of performance referred to under clauses (i) and (ii) above for a period of 150 days will not constitute an Event of Servicing Termination if such delay or failure was caused by force majeure or other similar occurrence.

          (b) Upon termination of the Servicer under Section 7.1(a), the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and such Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer for administration of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or shall thereafter be received with respect to a Receivable and the delivery of the Receivable Files and the related accounts and records to the extent maintained by the Servicer. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Receivable Files to the Successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. To the extent such costs and expenses are not paid by the predecessor servicer, such costs and expenses shall be paid by the Issuer.

          (c) Upon termination of the Servicer under Section 7.1(a), the Successor Servicer shall service the Ford Credit Receivables, the Huntington Receivables and the OSB Receivables through the applicable Receivables Servicing Agreement, unless the applicable Receivables Servicing Agreement has been terminated pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth therein.

     SECTION 7.2 Appointment of Successor Servicer. (a) Upon the Servicer’s receipt of notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.1 or the Servicer’s resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the later of (x) the date 45 days from the delivery to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or written confirmation of such notice) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) the date upon which the predecessor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. In the event of the Servicer’s resignation or termination hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a Successor Servicer, and the Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in form acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee (with a copy to each Rating Agency). In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed at the time when the predecessor Servicer has ceased to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section 7.2, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer. The Indenture Trustee may resign as the Servicer by giving written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and in such event shall be released from such duties and obligations, such release not to be effective until the date a Successor Servicer enters into a written assumption as provided in this Section. Upon delivery of any such notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall obtain a new servicer as the

Sale and Servicing Agreement

Successor Servicer in accordance with this Section. Notwithstanding the above, if the Indenture Trustee shall be legally unable so to act or if, within 30 days after the delivery of its notice of resignation, the Issuer shall not have obtained a Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established institution, having a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of automotive receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement; provided that the Rating Agency Condition shall be satisfied in connection with such appointment.

          (b) Upon appointment, the Successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the predecessor Servicer and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, and liabilities arising thereafter relating thereto placed on the predecessor Servicer, by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, that (i) any failure of such Successor Servicer to perform such responsibilities or duties that are caused by the predecessor Servicer’s failure to provide information or monies required hereunder shall not be considered a default by such Successor Servicer and (ii) such Successor Servicer shall have no liability for actions, inactions or representations of the predecessor Servicer.

          (c) In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such Successor Servicer out of payments on Receivables as it and such Successor Servicer shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the compensation permitted for the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement. The Indenture Trustee and such Successor Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the other Basic Documents to the contrary, in no event shall any Successor Servicer be required to purchase any Receivable pursuant to Section 3.6 herein.

     SECTION 7.3 Notification to Noteholders and Certificateholders. Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article VII, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Noteholders, and the Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses of record and to each Rating Agency.

     SECTION 7.4 Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination. The holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Controlling Class (or, if no Notes are outstanding, holders of Certificates evidencing a majority of the Percentage Interests) may, on behalf of all Noteholders and Certificateholders, waive any Event of Servicing Termination hereunder and its consequences, except an event resulting from the failure by the Servicer to make any required payments in accordance with this Agreement, which shall require the unanimous vote of all Holders of Outstanding Securities. Upon any such waiver of a past Event of Servicing Termination, such Event of Servicing Termination shall cease to exist, and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Servicing Termination or impair any right consequent thereon. The Indenture Trustee shall provide written notice of any such waiver to the Rating Agencies.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

     SECTION 8.1 Optional Purchase of All Receivables. The Servicer, or if the Servicer does not exercise such right, a Certificateholder evidencing 100% of the Percentage Interests in the Certificates may purchase the outstanding Receivables and the other Trust Property on any Payment Date if, as of the last day of the related Collection Period, the Pool Balance has declined to 10% or less of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-Off Date. To exercise such option, the Servicer or Certificateholder, as applicable, shall deposit the Optional Purchase Price to the Collection Account on such Payment Date. The Servicer or Certificateholder, as applicable, shall furnish notice of such election to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee not later than twenty (20) days prior to the Prepayment Date. Promptly following its receipt of such notice, (i) the Indenture Trustee will promptly (but not later than 3 Business Days after it has received such notice) provide notice of such purchase to the Noteholders of record and (ii) the Owner Trustee will promptly (but not later than 3 Business Days after it has received such notice) provide notice of such purchase to the Certificateholders of record.

     SECTION 8.2 Succession Upon Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Indenture Trustee will continue to carry out its obligations hereunder as agent for the Owner Trustee, including without limitation making distributions from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.5.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders or the Certificateholders pursuant to this Section 9.1 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Noteholders and Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Noteholders and Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may prescribe, including, with respect to the Noteholders, the establishment of record dates pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement.

Receivables and other Transferred Assets, to secure such indebtedness and the performance of the obligations of the Depositor hereunder;

     (iii) The possession by the Issuer, or the Servicer (or Receivables Servicers) as the Issuer’s agent, of the Receivables Files and any other property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by the purchaser or a person designated by such purchaser, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; and

     (iv) Notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Issuer for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.

     SECTION 9.10 No Petition. Each party hereto agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after payment in full of all obligations of each Bankruptcy Remote Party in respect of all securities issued by any Bankruptcy Remote Party (i) such party shall not authorize any Bankruptcy Remote Party to commence a voluntary winding-up or other voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to such Bankruptcy Remote Party or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction or seeking the appointment of an administrator, a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official with respect to such Bankruptcy Remote Party or any substantial part of its property or to consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against such Bankruptcy Remote Party, or to make a general assignment for the benefit of, its creditors generally, any party hereto or any other creditor of such Bankruptcy Remote Party, and (ii) none of the parties hereto shall commence or join with any other Person in commencing any proceeding against such Bankruptcy Remote Party under any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or insolvency law or statute now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction.
