Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Indenture (each, as hereinafter defined).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, United Auto Credit Corporation ("United Auto") and United Auto Credit Financing LLC (the "Depositor") have entered into a Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2025 (the "Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which United Auto has sold, transferred and assigned to the Depositor all of its right, title and interest in and to the Receivables and certain Other Conveyed Property;
WHEREAS, the Issuer, United Auto, as Servicer (the "Servicer"), the Depositor and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Indenture Trustee and Backup Servicer, have entered into a Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2025 (the "Sale and Servicing Agreement"), pursuant to which the Depositor has sold, transferred and assigned to the Issuer all of Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Receivables and certain Other Conveyed Property;

WHEREAS, the Indenture Trustee wishes to appoint the Custodian to hold the Receivable Files as the custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1.
Appointment of Custodian; Acknowledgement of Receipt. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Indenture Trustee hereby revocably appoints the Custodian, and the Custodian hereby accepts such appointment, as custodian and bailee on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, to maintain exclusive custody of the Receivable Files relating to the Receivables from time to time pledged to the Indenture Trustee as part of the Other Conveyed Property; provided, that it is understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of the Custodian. In performing its duties hereunder, the Custodian agrees to act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that a commercial bank acting in the capacity of a custodian would exercise with respect to files relating to comparable automotive or other receivables that it services or holds for itself or others (the "Standard of Care"). The Custodian hereby, as of the Closing Date, acknowledges receipt of the Receivable File for each Receivable listed in the Schedule of Receivables attached as Schedule A to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, subject to any exceptions noted on the Custodian's Acknowledgement (as defined below). As evidence of its acknowledgement of such receipt of
such Receivables, the Custodian shall execute and deliver on the Closing Date the Custodian's Acknowledgement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Custodian's Acknowledgement").
2.
Maintenance of Receivables Files at Office. The Custodian agrees to maintain the Receivable Files (or access to any Receivable Files stored in electronic format) at its office located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ or at such other office in the United States as shall from time to time be identified to the Indenture Trustee upon prior written notice. The Custodian will hold the Receivable Files in such office on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, clearly identified as being separate from any other instruments and files on its records, including other instruments and files held by the Custodian and in compliance with Section 3(a) of this Agreement. With respect to each Receivable evidenced by an Electronic Contract, the Custodian shall maintain an Authoritative Copy of such Electronic Contract in the UACC 2025-1 ABS Vault Partition.
3.
Duties of Custodian.
(a)
Safekeeping. The Custodian shall hold the Receivable Files, including any receivables systems on which the Receivable Files are electronically stored, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee clearly identified as being separate from all other files or records maintained by the Custodian at the same location and shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, such accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems, including the E-Vault System, pertaining to each Receivable File as will enable the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer to comply with the terms and conditions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, provided, however, the Custodian may convert a Receivable that is "tangible chattel paper" (within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York) to "electronic chattel paper" (within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York) and may convert a Receivable that is "electronic chattel paper" (within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York) to "tangible chattel paper" (within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York). Each Receivable shall be identified on the books and records of the Custodian in a manner that (i) is consistent with the Standard of Care, (ii) indicates that the Receivables are held by the Custodian on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and (iii) is otherwise necessary, as reasonably determined by the Custodian, to comply with the terms of this Agreement. The Custodian shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic physical inspections of the Receivable Files held by it under this Agreement, and of the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner as shall enable the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian to verify the accuracy of the Custodian's inventory and recordkeeping. Such inspections shall be conducted at such times, in such manner and by such Persons including, without limitation, Independent Accountants, as the Indenture Trustee may request and the cost of such inspections shall be borne directly by the Custodian and not by the Indenture Trustee. The Custodian shall promptly report to the Indenture Trustee any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Upon request, the Custodian shall make copies or other electronic file records (e.g. diskettes, CDs, etc.) (the "Copies") of the Receivable Files and shall deliver such Copies to the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall hold such Copies on behalf of the Noteholders. Subject to Sections 3(d) and 3(f) of this Agreement, the Custodian shall, or shall cause any sub-contractor to, at all times maintain (i) the original (or certified copy) of the fully executed original retail installment sales contract or promissory note; provided, however, this shall not apply to a Receivable that has

Access to Records. The Custodian shall, subject only to the Custodian's security requirements applicable to its own employees having access to similar records held by the Custodian, which requirements shall be consistent with the Standard of Care, and at such times as may be reasonably imposed by the Custodian, permit only the (i) the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders or (ii) following the discharge of the Indenture, the Owner Trustee, acting at the direction of the Majority Certificateholders or, in each case, its duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors to inspect, at the Servicer's expense, the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Custodian pursuant hereto at such times as the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee, as applicable, may reasonably request.
(c)
Release of Documents. Consistent with the Standard of Care, the Custodian may release any Receivable in the Receivable Files to the Servicer, if appropriate, under the circumstances provided in Section 3.4(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(d)
Administration; Reports. The Custodian shall, in general, attend to all non-discretionary details in connection with maintaining custody of the Receivable Files on behalf of the Indenture Trustee. In addition, the Custodian shall assist the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, generally in the preparation of any routine reports to Noteholders or to regulatory bodies, to the extent necessitated by the Custodian's custody of the Receivable Files.
(e)
Review of Lien Certificates. On or before the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a listing in the form attached hereto as Schedule II of Exhibit A, of all Receivables with respect to which a Lien Certificate, showing United Auto as secured party, was not included in the related Receivable File as of such date. In addition, the Custodian shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an exception report, in the form attached hereto as Schedule I of Exhibit A, (i) no later than the last Business Day of the calendar month during which the 90th day after the Closing Date occurred, (ii) no later than the last Business Day of the calendar month during which the 180th day after the Closing Date occurred and (iii) at any other time upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee.

In no event shall the Custodian be directly liable to any third party for acts or omissions of the Custodian.

If, within 72 hours after the termination of this Agreement, the Custodian has not delivered the Receivable Files in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee may enter the premises of the Custodian and remove the Receivable Files from such premises. In connection with the administration of this Agreement, the parties may agree from time to time upon the interpretation of the provisions of this Agreement as may in their joint opinion be consistent with the general tenor and purposes of this Agreement, any such interpretation to be signed by all parties and annexed hereto.
