(iii) whether such Floor Plan Borrowing is to be a Comerica Prime Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Loan, or in the case of a Swing Line Loan, a Loan at the Quoted Rate (provided, however, that all Drafts shall be deemed to be requested as Swing Line Loans at the Quoted Rate) and the Interest Period applicable thereto;

(iv) if the Motor Vehicles purchased or to be purchased with the proceeds of such Borrowing are New Motor Vehicles, Rental Motor Vehicles and/or Demonstrators, a description of such Motor Vehicles, including for each Motor Vehicle, its vehicle identification number, make, model, model year, purchase price and evidence of value, and whether such Motor Vehicle is a New Motor Vehicle, Rental Motor Vehicle or Demonstrator; and

in accordance with their respective terms, then the Floor Plan Agent shall not fund the amount of such Draft; and

(ii) if on any day the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.3 have been satisfied and (x) the aggregate principal amount of a Request for Borrowing of a Floor Plan Loan, plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of all other Floor Plan Loans then outstanding exceeds the Floor Plan Tranche Amount and such Request for Borrowing is less than the available Swing Line Commitment then such Borrowing shall constitute a Swing Line Loan and shall be disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Article IV hereof; and

(iii) if on any day the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.3 have been satisfied and a Draft is presented for payment, the payment of which would cause (x) the aggregate principal amount of all Floor Plan Loans then outstanding, plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans then outstanding, plus (z) the aggregate principal amount of all Requests for Borrowings of Floor Plan Loans outstanding as of such day to exceed the aggregate Floor Plan Loan Commitments as of such day, then, in such event:

(D) if there is no Reserve Commitment available, such Draft shall be deemed for all purposes a Swing Line Overdraft Loan Borrowing Request (each a “Swing Line Overdraft Borrowing Request”) and such Borrowing shall constitute a Swing Line Overdraft Loan (each, a “Swing Line Overdraft Loan”) to be disbursed and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.

(e) Each Request for Borrowing may be in writing (including via facsimile or email) or telephonic (if promptly confirmed in writing).

All original Manufacturer’s invoices and title documents evidencing the Floor Plan Borrowers’ ownership of all of their Motor Vehicles financed hereunder, including, without limitation, the Manufacturer’s Certificate, shall be maintained in safekeeping by the Floor Plan Borrowers in a manner acceptable to the Floor Plan Agent, unless and until a Floor Plan Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Floor Plan Event of Default, the Floor Plan Agent may request and the Floor Plan Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered within three (3) Business Days of such request, all such original Manufacturer’s invoices and title documents being maintained by the Floor Plan Borrowers at the time of such request and, immediately, all such original Manufacturer’s invoices and title documents that later come into the possession of the Floor Plan Borrowers, to the Floor Plan Agent, and the Floor Plan Agent shall retain or hold all such original Manufacturer’s invoices and title documents so received.

Section 2.7 Power of Attorney. For the purpose of expediting the financing of Motor Vehicles under the terms of this Agreement and for other purposes relating to such financing transaction, each of the Floor Plan Borrowers irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Floor Plan Agent and any of its officers, and each of them, severally, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact or attorney-in-fact with full authority to act on behalf of, and in the name of, place, and stead of, each such Floor Plan Borrower, regardless of whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder, to prepare, execute, and deliver any and all instruments, documents, and agreements required to be executed and delivered by each such Floor Plan Borrower necessary to evidence Floor Plan Loan Borrowings (and if outstanding, Swing Line Overdraft Loans) hereunder and/or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to evidence, perfect, or realize upon the security interest granted by this Agreement, and/or any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Notes evidencing the Floor Plan Loans, requests for advances, security agreements, financing statements, other instruments for the payment of money, receipts, manufacturer’s

Each of said attorneys-in-fact shall have the power to act hereunder with or without the other. The Floor Plan Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, notify the Floor Plan Borrowers of any such instruments or documents the Floor Plan Agent has executed on any Borrower’s behalf prior to such execution.

Section 2.8 Issuance of Drafting Agreements. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Floor Plan Agent shall, at any time and from time to time from and after the Closing Date until thirty (30) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, upon the written request of the Company or the applicable Floor Plan Borrower, countersigned by the Company, accompanied by applications, letter of credit agreements and/or such other documentation related thereto as the Floor Plan Agent may require, issue Drafting Agreements for the account of the applicable Floor Plan Borrower.

Section 2.9 Conditions to Issuance. The Floor Plan Agent shall not be obligated to enter into or issue a Drafting Agreement unless, as of the date of issuance of such Drafting Agreement:

(a) the Company or the applicable Floor Plan Borrower requesting the Drafting Agreement shall have delivered to the Floor Plan Agent not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the requested date for issuance (or such shorter time as the Floor Plan Agent in its sole discretion may permit), a written application and such other documentation (including without limitation a letter of credit agreement if the Drafting Agreement is to be issued in the form of a letter of credit) and the terms of such documents and of the proposed Drafting Agreement shall satisfy the terms hereof and otherwise be satisfactory to Floor Plan Agent;

(b) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.3 are satisfied;

(c) no order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Floor Plan Agent from entering into or issuing such Drafting Agreement; no Requirement of Law applicable to the Floor Plan Agent and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Floor Plan Agent shall prohibit the Floor Plan Agent, or request that the Floor Plan Agent refrain, from issuing or entering into Drafting Agreements generally or such Drafting Agreement in particular or shall impose upon the Floor Plan Agent with respect to such Drafting Agreement any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Floor Plan Agent is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Floor Plan Agent any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Floor Plan Agent in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it (relating to Drafts and Drafting Agreements); and

(d) the Floor Plan Agent does not receive written notice from any Lender, the Agent or any Floor Plan Borrower, on or prior to the Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or entry into such Drafting Agreement, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article VIII (or in this Section 2.9) has not been satisfied or that a Default (relating to a Floor Plan Event of Default) or Floor Plan Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Each application for a Drafting Agreement issued by a Floor Plan Borrower hereunder shall constitute certification by each of the Company and the applicable Floor Plan Borrower of the matters set forth in Section 2.9(a) and (b), and Floor Plan Agent shall be entitled to rely on such certification without any duty

of inquiry. Immediately upon the issuance or entering into by the Floor Plan Agent of each Drafting Agreement (except in respect of any Drafting Agreement issued or entered into by the Floor Plan Agent after it has obtained actual knowledge (as provided in Section 12.14) that a Floor Plan Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), each Floor Plan Lender, subject to Section 4.6 (relating to a Swing Line Overdraft Loan), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, and does hereby, purchase from the Floor Plan Agent a participation in such Drafting Agreement and each Draft thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments of such Floor Plan Lender and (ii) the amount of each Draft presented by a Manufacturer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Floor Plan Agent shall take such action as necessary to terminate and suspend all Drafting Agreements effective ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date, and none of the Borrowers shall be entitled to borrow under any Drafting Agreement after the date that is ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date. Provided, however, the immediately foregoing sentence is intended only as a limitation to the Borrowers’ ability to borrow under Drafting Agreements and not as an enlargement of the Floor Plan Agent’s obligations hereunder.

Section 2.10 Drafts Under Manufacturers Drafting Letters.

(a) Each Draft submitted by a Manufacturer pursuant to a Drafting Agreement shall constitute a Request for Borrowing of a Floor Plan Loan, a Swing Line Loan, or a Swing Line Overdraft Loan, as the case may be. Upon its submission to the Floor Plan Agent, the Floor Plan Agent shall pay such Draft, unless it has been terminated or suspended. If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.3 have been satisfied, then such payment shall constitute a Floor Plan Loan in satisfaction of the Floor Plan Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the terms and conditions of Article XII hereof, the Floor Plan Agent may take all actions reasonably necessary to suspend and/or terminate Drafts in accordance with Section 11.4 and following the occurrence of any Default (relating to a Floor Plan Event of Default) or Floor Plan Event of Default.

(b) Notwithstanding the obligation (if any) of the Floor Plan Agent to fund a Draft, (i) if at any time any of the Floor Plan Borrowers has failed to satisfy the conditions precedent for the Floor Plan Agent to make a Floor Plan Loan or the Swing Line Bank to make a Swing Line Loan or a Swing Line Overdraft Loan, (ii) subject to Section 2.3(d)(iii), if at any time the amount of such Draft would cause the aggregate amount of Floor Plan Loans to exceed the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment, or (iii) after a Default (relating to a Floor Plan Event of Default) or a Floor Plan Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then in any such event, the funding of such Draft shall not constitute a waiver of any such condition, Default or Event of Default or otherwise in any manner whatsoever affect the rights and remedies available to the Floor Plan Agent, the Agent, the Swing Line Bank or any of the Floor Plan Lenders or the Lenders hereunder. In any such event, the Floor Plan Borrowers shall remain obligated to pay the amount of any Draft forthwith as set forth herein and shall have all other duties and obligations applicable to the Floor Plan Borrowers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each of the Floor Plan Borrowers shall bear all risk of loss resulting from the payment of any Draft, or any resulting disbursements of the Floor Plan Loans, Swing Line Loans or Swing Line Overdraft Loans, as the case may be, whether or not due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of any Manufacturer.

(c) Subject to Section 11.4 hereof, each Floor Plan Lender shall be obligated to fund Floor Plan Loans resulting from the presentation of Drafts, by making available their respective Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments of the amounts so advanced, all in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof; provided, however, that if for any reason the Floor Plan Agent is prohibited from making a Floor Plan Loan in respect of any such Draft, each such Floor Plan Lender shall be deemed to and unconditionally agrees to purchase from the Floor Plan Agent a participation interest in the amount of such Draft (in the amount of its

Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments). Notwithstanding the amount of the aggregate Floor Plan Loan Commitments in effect from time to time, except with respect to the notices terminating or suspending drafting privileges to be given pursuant Section 11.1 or Section 11.4 hereof or any other notices given by the Floor Plan Agent in response to the written direction of the Required Lenders, the Floor Plan Agent shall not be obligated to terminate or suspend the drafting privileges of any Manufacturer under the Drafting Agreements even though the aggregate amount of Drafts which may be presented by Manufacturers under the Drafting Agreements may exceed the amount of the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment in effect from time to time. Furthermore, (i) any limitations contained in any of the Drafting Agreements (whether in respect of daily Drafts to be presented or otherwise) are for informational purposes only and Floor Plan Agent shall not be obligated to monitor or limit the amount of Drafts presented or honored on the basis of any such limitations and (ii) any right of the Floor Plan Agent, acting in its discretion and not at the direction or with the concurrence of the Required Lenders, to terminate or suspend drafting privileges of any Manufacturer or otherwise exercise any right or remedy shall be for the sole benefit and protection of the Floor Plan Agent, and the Floor Plan Agent shall not owe any duty to any of the other Lenders with respect to such rights or remedies or be required to exercise such rights or remedies to protect any of the other Lenders.

Section 2.11 Obligations Absolute. The Obligations of the Floor Plan Borrowers under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents to reimburse the Floor Plan Agent for Drafts presented by a Manufacturer under a Drafting Agreement and to repay any Swing Line Loans, the Floor Plan Loans or the Swing Line Overdraft Loans, as the case may be, funded to pay a Draft shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Such obligation shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other Loan Document under all circumstances, including the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations of any Borrower in respect of any Draft or any Drafting Agreement or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the applicable/related Loan Documents; (c) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Floor Plan Borrower may have at any time against any Manufacturer or any other beneficiary or transferee of any Drafting Agreement (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or such transferee may be acting), the Floor Plan Agent or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the related Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction other than the defense of payment or claims arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Floor Plan Agent or the Swing Line Bank; (d) any Draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under a Drafting Agreement proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (e) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a Draft under any Drafting Agreement; (f) any payment by the Floor Plan Agent under any Drafting Agreement against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of any Drafting Agreement; (g) any payment made by the Floor Plan Agent under any Drafting Agreement to any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of a successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Drafting Agreement, including any arising in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding; (h) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from all or any of the Obligations of any Borrower in respect of any Drafting Agreement; or (i) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, any Borrower other than the defense of payment or claims arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Floor Plan Agent or the Swing Line Bank.

Article III

ACQUISITION LOANS

Section 3.1 Acquisition Loan Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties of the Company herein set forth, each Acquisition Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make revolving credit loans to the Company (each such loan, an “Acquisition Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender’s pro rata share of the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit; provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Acquisition Loan Borrowing, the aggregate amount of all outstanding Acquisition Loans and all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow Acquisition Loans under this Section 3.1(a).

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, Acquisition Loans may, at the option of the Company, be requested in or converted into one of the Alternative Currencies rather than Dollars in an amount up to the Equivalent Amount of not more than the lesser of (i) the then available amount under the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit and (ii) $125,000,000 (the “Alternative Currency Sublimit”) calculated as of the date such Loans are requested. If so requested, only those Acquisition Loan Lenders designated on Schedule 1.1(a) as having Acquisition Loan Commitments in an Alternative Currency shall participate in making such Loans, notwithstanding that this results in such Lenders having amounts owing by the Company on a non pro rata basis. Following the advance of an Acquisition Loan in an Alternative Currency, the provisions of Section 3.2(c)(ii) shall apply to subsequent Borrowings requested under the Acquisition Loan.

Section 3.2 Acquisition Loans.

(a) Each Acquisition Loan Borrowing shall be in the minimum aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or Equivalent Amount in an Alternative Currency (or the amount of a Letter of Credit Borrowing or the remaining balance of the aggregate Acquisition Loan Commitments, if less) and an integral multiple thereof, and shall consist of Acquisition Loans of the same Type made by the applicable Acquisition Loan Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.1(b), above; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Acquisition Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder.

(b) Each Acquisition Loan Borrowing requested in Dollars shall be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing, and each Acquisition Loan Borrowing requested in Euros or Pounds Sterling shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, respectively, as the Company may request, in a Request for Borrowing delivered to the Agent in accordance with Section 3.3. Each Acquisition Loan Lender may fulfill its Acquisition Loan Commitment with respect to any Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan by causing, at its option, any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan, provided that the exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Company to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(b) and Section 5.9, Acquisition Loan Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time.

(c) (i) Each applicable Acquisition Loan Lender shall make Acquisition Loans equal to its then Pro Rata Share of the Acquisition Loan Commitments, if any, by paying the amount required to the Agent in at its office in Chicago, Illinois in U.S. Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, to the Alternative Currency Agent in London and in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time,

or London time, as applicable, on the proposed Borrowing Date and, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent shall promptly, and in any event on the same day, credit the amounts so received to the general deposit account of the Company, with said Agent, or such other depository account as shall be designated by the Company or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(ii) If a Borrowing under the Acquisition Loan is made in an Alternative Currency, subsequent Acquisition Borrowings requested in Dollars, or continued as, or converted into, Acquisition Borrowings in Dollars, shall be advanced first by Acquisition Loan Lenders that do not have Acquisition Loan Commitments in an Alternative Currency until such time as the amount owing to each of the Acquisition Loan Lenders under the Acquisition Loan is equal to its Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments.

Section 3.3 Acquisition Loan Borrowing Procedure.

(a) In order to obtain an Acquisition Loan, the Company shall make an irrevocable written request therefor (or, with respect to ABR and Eurodollar Borrowings only, irrevocable telephone notice thereof, confirmed as soon as practicable by written request) in the form of a Request for Borrowing (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, to the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the Borrowing Date, (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, to the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date, and (iii) in the case of any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency, to the Alternative Currency Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., London time, three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date. Each Request for Borrowing shall be irrevocable and specify (1) whether the Loan then being requested is to be an ABR, Eurocurrency, Pounds Sterling or a Eurodollar Borrowing, (2) the Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day), (3) the aggregate amount thereof, and (4) if a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan is being requested, the Interest Period or Interest Periods with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Acquisition Loan Borrowing is specified for Dollar denominated Loans, such Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified, the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. The Agent shall promptly advise the Lenders of any Request for Borrowing given by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.3 and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Acquisition Loan Borrowing.

(b) No more than eight (8) Acquisition Borrowings may be outstanding at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings comprised of Acquisition Loans having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

Section 3.4 Reserve Commitment; Reduction of Acquisition Loan Advance Limit. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, in the event that on any day the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all (a) Floor Plan Loans, plus (b) Swing Line Loans, plus (c) Requests for Floor Plan Loan Borrowings exceeds ninety-seven and one-half percent (97.5%) of the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment as of such date, then (i) a portion of the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment (the “Reserve Commitment”) in an amount equal to the lesser of (y) $5,000,000 or (z) the entire remaining unused portion of the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment as of such date, shall be reserved and shall no longer be available for funding Acquisition Loans, and (ii) the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit shall be reduced by the amount by which the (x) Floor Plan Loans, plus (y) Swing Line Loans plus (z) Requests for Floor Plan Loan Borrowings exceeds ninety-seven and one-half percent (97.5%) of the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment until the next Business Day on which such condition no longer exists.

Section 3.5 Monthly Calculation of Outstanding Loans in Alternative Currencies. On the first Business Day of each month, the Agent shall calculate the Equivalent Amount of the then aggregate principal amount of all Loans in Alternative Currencies for the purposes of determining if (a) the Company has availability under (i) the Alternative Currency Sublimit to request additional Loans in or conversions of existing Loans into one or more of the Alternative Currencies during such month and (ii) the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit to request additional Acquisition Loans, and (b) any prepayments of the Obligations are due and payable by the Borrowers during such month pursuant to Section 5.7(d) as a result of such calculation of the Equivalent Amount of the then aggregate principal amount of all Loans in Alternative Currencies.

Article IV

SWING LINE LOANS

Section 4.1 Swing Line Commitments.

(a) The Swing Line Bank shall, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth (including Section 4.3), make one or more advances (each such advance being a “Swing Line Loan”) to any Floor Plan Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time (not including Swing Line Overdraft Loans) the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Commitment as such amount may change from time to time. After giving effect to all Borrowings of Swing Line Loans and Floor Plan Loans requested on any date, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Floor Plan Loans and Swing Line Loans (but excluding Swing Line Overdraft Loans) shall not exceed the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment

(b) All Swing Line Loans (excluding Swing Line Overdraft Loans) shall be evidenced by the Swing Line Note, under which advances, repayments and readvances may be made, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In no event whatsoever shall any outstanding Swing Line Loan be deemed to reduce, modify or affect any Lender’s obligation to make Floor Plan Loans based upon its Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments.

Section 4.2 Accrual of Interest; Margin Adjustments. Each Swing Line Loan and each Swing Line Overdraft Loan shall, from time to time after the date of such Loan, bear interest as provided in Section 5.2(e). The amount and date of each such Swing Line Loan and each such Swing Line Overdraft Loan, the Quoted Rate applicable thereto, its Interest Period, and the amount and date of any repayment shall be noted on the Swing Line Bank’s records, which records will be conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure by the Swing Line Bank to record any such information shall not affect the obligations of the applicable Floor Plan Borrower with respect thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, and, further provided, that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Floor Plan Event of Default and commencing on the last day of any applicable Interest Period, each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest at the Comerica Prime-based Rate.

Section 4.3 Requests for Swing Line Loans. On any day that a Request for Borrowing constitutes a Request for Borrowing of a Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(d)(ii), the applicable Floor Plan Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered to Swing Line Bank a Request for Borrowing in connection therewith, subject to the following and to the remaining provisions of this Section 4.3:

(a) the aggregate principal amount of such requested Swing Line Loan Borrowing, plus the aggregate principal amount of all other Swing Line Loans then outstanding, shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment;

(b) such Request for Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall constitute a certification by the Company of the provisions of Section 8.3; and

(c) such Request for Borrowing may be in writing (including via facsimile or email) or telephonic (if promptly confirmed in writing). Each of the Floor Plan Borrowers hereby authorizes the Swing Line Bank to disburse Swing Line Loans pursuant to the telephone instructions of any Person purporting to be a Person identified by name on a written list of Persons authorized by each such Floor Plan Borrower to make Requests for Borrowings of Swing Line Loans on behalf of such Floor Plan Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Floor Plan Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that such Floor Plan Borrower shall bear all risk of loss resulting from disbursements made upon any telephone request.

Section 4.4 Disbursement of Swing Line Loans. Subject to receipt of a Request for Borrowing of a Swing Line Loan and to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swing Line Bank shall make available to any Floor Plan Borrower the amount so requested, in same day funds, not later than 1:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time on the Borrowing Date of such Swing Line Loan, by credit to an account of the applicable Floor Plan Borrower maintained with the Swing Line Bank or to such other account or third party as such Floor Plan Borrower may reasonably direct.

Section 4.5 Refunding of or Participation Interest in Swing Line Loans.

(a) On the first Floor Plan Adjustment Date of any month or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default other than those described in paragraph (b) below, the Swing Line Bank in its sole and absolute discretion may, on behalf of any Floor Plan Borrower (each of whom hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Bank to act on its behalf), make a written (including via facsimile) request to the Floor Plan Agent, requesting the Floor Plan Lenders (including the Swing Line Bank in its capacity as a Floor Plan Lender) to make Floor Plan Loans in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans (excluding (i) Swing Line Loans in the amount of the Offset Amount and (ii) Swing Line Overdraft Loans) in accordance with each Floor Plan Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments. Upon receipt of such request, the Floor Plan Agent shall promptly provide notice of such request to the Floor Plan Lenders. Such loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) shall accrue interest at (i) the Comerica Prime-based Rate, if requested upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (ii) the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin or the Comerica Prime-based Rate, at the Borrowers’ option, if requested on any such Floor Plan Adjustment Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no such request shall require any Floor Plan Lender to make Floor Plan Loans in excess of such Floor Plan Lender’s Floor Plan Loan Commitment on the date such request is made. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Refunded Swing Line Loans shall not be subject to the indemnification provisions of Section 5.10, and no losses, costs or expenses may be assessed by the Swing Line Bank against the applicable Floor Plan Borrower or the other Floor Plan Lenders as a consequence thereof. Unless an Event of Default described in Section 11.1(f), Section 11.1(g), Section 11.3(d), Section 11.3(e), Section 11.3(f), or Section 11.3(g) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 4.5(b) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Floor Plan Loan are then satisfied, each Floor Plan Lender shall within two (2) Business Days following receipt of notice from the Floor Plan Agent make the proceeds of its Floor Plan Loan available to the Floor Plan Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Bank.

(b) If, prior to making of a Refunded Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 4.5(a), an Event of Default described in Section 11.1(f), Section 11.1(g), Section 11.3(d), Section 11.3(e), Section 11.3(f), or Section 11.3(g) shall have occurred, each Floor Plan Lender shall, in the manner provided in Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(c), on the date such Floor Plan Loan was to have been made, purchase from the Swing Line Bank participation interests in the Refunded Swing Line Loan equal to such Floor Plan Lender’s

Pro Rata Share of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments; provided, however, except for any Borrowing which occurs as a result of a Draft made prior to the effective suspension or termination of the Drafting Agreement pursuant to which such Borrowing occurred which Borrowing is subject to Section 2.10, no Floor Plan Lender shall be obligated to purchase a participation interest in a Refunded Swing Line Loan to the extent such Loan was made by the Swing Line Bank when the conditions precedent in Section 8.3 were not satisfied.

(c) Subject to Section 4.5(b), above, each Floor Plan Lender’s obligation to make Floor Plan Loans and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 4.5(a) and Section 4.5(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Floor Plan Lender may have against the Swing Line Bank, any Floor Plan Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Floor Plan Borrower or any other Person; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by any Floor Plan Borrower or any other Person; (v) any inability of any Floor Plan Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to a Borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Floor Plan Loan is required to be made or such participating interest is to be purchased; or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Floor Plan Lender does not make available to the Floor Plan Agent the amount required pursuant to Section 4.5(a) or Section 4.5(b), as the case may be, the Swing Line Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Floor Plan Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(d) Refunded Swing Line Loans which are funded by the Floor Plan Lenders after two (2) Business Days’ notice as provided in Section 4.5(a) shall thereafter become Floor Plan Loans and, subject to any right of acceleration herein provided, shall remain outstanding until the next succeeding Floor Plan Adjustment Date. Such Loans shall accrue interest in favor of the Floor Plan Lenders in accordance with each Floor Plan Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments at the Comerica Prime-based Rate. On the next succeeding Floor Plan Adjustment Date, such Loans shall be treated as all other Floor Plan Loans outstanding in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4.

Section 4.6 Swing Line Overdraft Loans.

(a) On any day that a Request for Borrowing of a Floor Plan Loan constitutes a Swing Line Overdraft Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 2.3(d)(iii), the applicable Floor Plan Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered a Swing Line Overdraft Borrowing Request. Such Swing Line Overdraft Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall constitute a certification by the Company of the provisions of Section 8.3.

(b) Swing Line Overdraft Loans shall be made only by the Swing Line Bank, solely for its own account and shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.5; provided, however, at any time a Swing Line Overdraft Loan is outstanding, all funds received from any source (other than deposits already in the Cash Collateral Account) in respect of this Agreement shall be applied first to the payment in full of the Swing Line Overdraft Loans; and the Floor Plan Agent, the Agent and the Lenders, as the case may be, shall remit to the Swing Line Bank, and the Swing Line Bank shall have the right to receive, all payments (including any prepayments) of principal and interest made by any Borrower in respect of any Loan and all other proceeds of Collateral securing the Loans for application and reduction of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swing Line Overdraft Loans.

(a) The Company shall pay to the Agent, within three Business Days after the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Maturity Date, in immediately available funds, (i) for the pro rata benefit of the Floor Plan Lenders, a Floor Plan Loan Commitment fee (the “Floor Plan Loan Commitment Fee”) equal to fifteen one-hundredths of one percent (0.15%) per annum times the average unused amount of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments during the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (or shorter portion thereof) just ended (including any unused portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments that has been reallocated or converted to the Floor Plan Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms hereof); (ii) for the benefit of the Acquisition Loan Lenders, ratably in accordance with the actual amount of such Lender’s available Acquisition Loan Commitment (after giving effect to all outstanding Loans thereunder) an Acquisition Loan Commitment fee (the “Acquisition Loan Commitment Fee”) equal to the sum of (x) the average unused amount of the Acquisition Loan Commitments times the applicable Commitment Fee Rate set forth in the table contained in the definition of Applicable Margin and (y) to the extent that the average Acquisition Loan Commitments, after giving effect to any reallocation of Acquisition Loan Commitments to the Floor Plan Loan Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, is less than $50,000,000, an amount equal to the unused portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments that has been reallocated or converted to the Floor Plan Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms hereof and that reduces the Acquisition Loan Commitments below $50,000,000 times the difference between the applicable Commitment Fee Rate set forth in the table contained in the definition of Applicable Margin and fifteen one-hundredths of one percent (0.15%) per annum in each such case during the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (or shorter period thereof) just ended. All Commitment Fees under this Section 5.4(a) shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. The Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed “unused” to the extent and in the amount such Lender is obligated to fund future Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations of any Borrower regardless of whether or not any amounts are outstanding under any Swing Line Loan. For purposes of calculating the “unused” amount of the Acquisition Commitments, Acquisitions Loans made in Alternate Currencies shall be deemed to be outstanding in the Equivalent Amount, calculated as of the date each Acquisition Loan was made. The Floor Plan Loan Commitment Fees and the Acquisition Loan Commitment Fees due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and cease to accrue on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitments of such Lender pursuant to Section 5.5 or Section 13.3(b).

(b) The Company shall pay the Agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. the fees (the “Agency Fees”) in such amount and on such dates as may be agreed among the Company, the Agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., for their account, as applicable, as set forth in that certain letter agreement dated May 19, 2016 among said parties (the “Agent’s Letter”).

(d) The Company shall pay the Agent for the benefit of the Floor Plan Lenders, according to their Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments, a fee in the amount of $750.00 for each day any Swing Line Overdraft Loan is outstanding; and such amount (if any) shall be payable on the last Business Day of each month.

(e) The Company shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders on the Closing Date the fees payable to the Lenders as provided in the Agent’s Letter.

Section 5.5 Termination, Reduction or Conversion of Commitments.

(a) Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 5.5, the Company may at any time, in whole or in part, permanently terminate or permanently reduce the Total Commitment, among the Lenders in accordance with (i) their respective Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments, and (ii) their respective Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments; provided (x) any such partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in minimum aggregate increments of $5,000,000; (y) any such partial reduction shall be made ratably between the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment and the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment respectively, and pro rata among the Lenders within each type of Commitment, and (z) no reduction shall reduce the amount of the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment to an amount which is less than the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at such time. In connection with any such reduction, the Floor Plan Agent in its sole discretion may, or at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, suspend and/or terminate all or any portion of the then outstanding Drafting Agreements. In addition, no such reduction shall cause the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment to exceed 20% of the Total Commitment. Subject to the Company’s right to subsequent terminations and reductions under this paragraph (a), each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall be irrevocable for such individual election notice.

(b) Subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 5.5, at any time there exists any unused portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments, the Company may request in writing the Agent to convert all or a part of such unused portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments into Floor Plan Loan Commitments, provided, following such conversion, the total of the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall not be less than an amount equal to (i) the sum of all Acquisition Loans then outstanding, plus (ii) all Letter of Credit Obligations then outstanding, plus (iii) any Reserve Commitment; and in such event and following five (5) Business Days prior written notice from the Company to the Agent, the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall be increased by the amount so requested by the Company, such amount together with the Acquisition Loan Commitments not to exceed the Total Commitment. At any time there exists any unused amount of a converted portion of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments, the Company may request the Agent to reverse any such portion thereof, in whole or in part, and in such event and following five (5) Business Days prior written notice from the Company to the Agent, the Floor Plan Loan Commitments and the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall be restored, as applicable, in the respective amounts so requested by the Company. Upon any such conversion of Acquisition Loan Commitments into Floor Plan Loan Commitments or vice versa, the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, pro rata among the Floor Plan Lenders, and the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in an aggregate amount of the corresponding increase or decrease in the Floor Plan Loan Commitments, which increase or decrease in the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall be allocated among the Acquisition Loan Lenders based on their Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments. Subject to the Company’s right to subsequent conversions under this paragraph (b), each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be irrevocable for such individual election notice.

(c) Subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 5.5, at any time there exists any unused portion of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments, the Company may request in writing the Agent to convert up to $300,000,000 of such unused portion of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments into Acquisition Loan Commitments; provided, following such conversion, the total of the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall not be less than an amount equal to (i) the sum of all Floor Plan Loans then outstanding, plus (ii) the sum of all Swing Line Loans then outstanding; and in such event and following five (5) Business Days prior written notice from the Company to the Agent, the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall be increased by the

amount so requested by the Company, such amount together with the Floor Plan Loan Commitments not to exceed the Total Commitment. At any time there exists any unused amount of a converted portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments, the Company may request the Agent to reverse any such portion thereof, in whole or in part, and in such event and following five (5) Business Days prior written notice from the Company to the Agent, the Acquisition Loan Commitments and the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall be restored, as applicable, in the respective amounts so requested by the Company. Upon any such conversion of Floor Plan Loan Commitments into Acquisition Loan Commitments or vice versa, the Acquisition Loan Commitments shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, pro rata among the Acquisition Loan Lenders, and the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in an aggregate amount of the corresponding increase or decrease in the Acquisition Loan Commitments, which increase or decrease in the Floor Plan Loan Commitments shall be allocated among the Floor Plan Lenders based on their Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments. Subject to the Company’s right to subsequent conversions under this paragraph (c), each notice delivered pursuant this paragraph (c) shall be irrevocable for such individual election notice.

(d) The Borrowers shall not be required to deliver replacement Notes to any Lender in connection with any conversion of the Acquisition Loan Commitments or Floor Plan Loan Commitments or any reversal of any such conversion, in each case, under Section 5.5(b) or (c). Following any such conversion or reversal, the amount of each Lender’s Acquisition Loan Commitment and Floor Plan Loan Commitment shall be noted on the Agent’s records, which records will be conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure by the Agent to record any such information shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers with respect thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

(e) After giving effect to any reduction, conversion or reversal thereof pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.5, the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment shall not exceed 20% of the Total Commitment.

(f) At the time the Commitments of any Lender are terminated or reduced pursuant to Section 5.5(a), the Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of each such Lender, the Floor Plan Loan Commitment Fees and the Acquisition Loan Commitment Fees on the amount of such terminated or reduced Commitments owed to the date of such termination or reduction.

(g) Each of the Commitments shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Maturity Date.

Section 5.6 Alternate Rate of Interest. If, on the day two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, the Agent shall have determined that: (a) deposits in the requested currency in the amount set forth in the such Request for Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market or that the rate at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender or the Swing Line Bank of making or maintaining the principal amount of such Loan comprising such Borrowing during such Interest Period, or (b) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate, Eurocurrency Rate or Pounds Sterling Rate, as applicable, then the Agent shall as soon as practicable thereafter give written notice of such determination to the Company, the Lenders and/or the Swing Line Bank; and any request by a Borrower for the making of any such Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, be deemed to be a request for a Borrowing to be comprised of (i) if such Borrowing is a Floor Plan Loan Borrowing, Comerica Prime Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is an Acquisition Loan Borrowing funded in Dollars, Alternate Base Rate Loans. If such Borrowing is a

Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, such request shall be deemed to be withdrawn. Each determination of the Agent hereunder shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Section 5.7 Prepayment of Loans; Mandatory Reduction of Indebtedness.

(a) So long as no Swing Line Overdraft Loans are outstanding, each Acquisition Loan Borrowing, each Floor Plan Loan Borrowing and each Swing Line Loan may be prepaid at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, subject, in the case of Acquisition Loan Borrowings, to the requirements of Section 5.10, but otherwise without premium or penalty, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written or facsimile notice to the Agent. Each Swing Line Overdraft Loan Borrowing may be prepaid at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of Section 5.10, but otherwise without premium or penalty. Any prepayments of Acquisition Loans shall be made in the currency in which the Acquisition Loan being repaid was made.

(b) On the date of any termination or reduction of the Total Commitment pursuant to Section 5.5(a), each of the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount by which the Total Commitment is being so terminated or reduced, as shall be necessary in order that the aggregate principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding will not exceed the Total Commitment following such termination or reduction. All prepayments of Acquisition Loans under this paragraph shall be subject to Section 5.10.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) and the Type of Loan to be prepaid. All prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d)(iii), if at any time and for any reason:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of all (y) Floor Plan Loans outstanding, plus (z) Swing Line Loans outstanding shall exceed the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment at such time, or

(ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans in Alternative Currencies shall exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit by an amount greater than five percent (5%) of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, or

(iii) the aggregate principal amount of all (x) Acquisition Loans, plus (y) Letter of Credit Obligations shall exceed the amount of the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit, or

(iv) the aggregate principal amount of all (w) Floor Plan Loans outstanding, plus (x) Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (y) Acquisition Loans outstanding, plus (z) Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding shall exceed the Total Commitment,

the Borrowers shall immediately, upon demand, pay to the Agent an amount of such Obligations equal to such excess, provided, the Borrowers shall have the right to direct such repayment first to prepay such portion of the Indebtedness not subject to the provisions of Section 5.10.

Section 5.8 Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.

(a) It is understood that the cost to each Lender of making or maintaining any of the Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans may fluctuate as a result of the applicability of reserve requirements imposed by the Board at the ratios provided for in Regulation D on the Closing Date. The Borrowers agree to pay to such Lender from time to time such amounts as shall be necessary to compensate

such Lender for the portion of the cost of making or maintaining Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans resulting from any increase in such reserve requirements provided for in Regulation D (or any successor regulation or ruling issued in respect thereof) from those as in effect on the Closing Date, it being understood that the rates of interest applicable to such Loans have been determined on the assumption that no such reserve requirements exist or will exist and that such rates do not reflect costs imposed on the Lenders in connection with such reserve requirements.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Change in Law shall (i) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (other than any amounts described in paragraph (a) above) or (iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect thereof, by an amount deemed by such Lender or such other Recipient in its sole discretion to be material, then the Borrowers shall pay as required in Section 5.8(d) such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(c) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion to be material, then the Borrowers shall pay as required to Section 5.8(d) to such Lender or such Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(d) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail calculations (together with the basis and assumptions therefor) to establish such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate without duplication such Lender (or participating banks or other entities pursuant to Section 13.3 subject to the limitations set forth therein) or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, under Section 5.8(a), Section 5.8(b) or Section 5.8(c) shall be delivered to the Agent which shall promptly deliver the same to the Company and such certificate shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence

of the amount or amounts which such Lender or such Issuing Bank is entitled to receive. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after its receipt of the same.

(e) Any demand for compensation pursuant to this Section 5.8 must be made on or before one (1) year after the Lender or Issuing Bank incurs the expense, cost or economic loss referred to or such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have waived the right to such compensation. The protection of this Section 5.8 shall be available to each Lender and Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of any law, regulation or other condition which shall give rise to any demand by such Lender or Issuing Bank for compensation.

(f) Nothing in this Section 5.8 shall entitle any Lender to receive interest at a rate per annum in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.

Section 5.9 Change in Legality.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan, then, by written notice to the Agent, such Lender may:

(i) declare that Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any request by any Borrower for a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing in such unlawful currency shall, as to such Lender only, not be available, unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans or Comerica Prime Rate Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans if Acquisition Loans and to Comerica Prime Rate Loans if Floor Plan Loans or, if Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans, repaid, in each case, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 5.9(b).

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Alternate Base Rate Loans or Comerica Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

(b) For purposes of Section 5.9(a), a notice to the Agent by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar, Eurocurrency and Pounds Sterling Loan on the last day of each applicable Interest Period.

Section 5.10 Breakage Costs and Related Matters.

(a) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) any failure by the Company to fulfill on the date of any Acquisition Loan Borrowing hereunder the applicable conditions set forth in Article VIII, (ii) any failure by the Company to borrow, convert or continue hereunder after delivery of a Request for Borrowing for an Acquisition Loan Borrowing, including a notice of conversion or continuation that has been given pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 5.15(a), (iii) any payment, prepayment or conversion of an Acquisition Loan that is a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan required by any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise made on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iv) any default in payment

or prepayment of the principal amount of any Acquisition Loan or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the due date thereof, by irrevocable notice of prepayment or otherwise), or (v) the occurrence of any Event of Default, including, but not limited to, any loss or reasonable expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain such Acquisition Loan or any part thereof as a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loan. Such loss or reasonable expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by each Lender of (A) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Acquisition Loan being paid, prepaid or converted or not borrowed (based on the LIBO, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Rate applicable thereto) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment or conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow) over (B) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that could be realized by such Lender in reemploying during such period the funds so paid, prepaid or converted or not borrowed. A certificate of each Lender setting forth in reasonable detail calculations (together with the basis and assumptions therefore) to establish any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall be delivered to the Agent which shall promptly deliver the same to the Company and such certificate shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive. Nothing in this Section 5.10 shall entitle any Lender to receive interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.

(b) The provisions of this Section 5.10 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Acquisition Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Lender; provided demand for compensation pursuant to this Section 5.10 must be made on or before one (1) year after the Lender incurs the expense, cost or economic loss referred to or such Lender shall be deemed to have waived the right to such compensation. All amounts due under this Section 5.10 shall be payable within ten (10) days after receipt of demand therefor.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Floor Plan Loans or Requests for Borrowing in respect of Floor Plan Loans shall not be subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 5.10, and no losses, costs or expenses may be asserted by the Floor Plan Agent or any Floor Plan Lender against any Floor Plan Borrower as a consequence of any action or failure contemplated in Section 5.10(a) in respect of any Floor Plan Loans or any Requests for Borrowing in respect of Floor Plan Loans.

Section 5.11 Pro Rata Treatment. Except for (a) Borrowings advanced under the Acquisition Loan Commitments in Alternative Currencies, (b) the repayment of such Borrowings (which shall be pro rata for the benefit of the Lenders advancing same), (c) subsequent Borrowings under the Acquisition Loan in Dollars to bring each Lender thereunder back into compliance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments, or (d) as otherwise provided herein, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of the Notes, each payment of interest on such Notes, each other reduction of the principal or interest outstanding under such Notes, however achieved, each payment of the Commitment Fees and each reduction of the Commitments shall be made, as applicable, in accordance with each Lender’s respective (i) Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments and (ii) Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments.

Section 5.12 Place of Payments.

(a) The Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest on any Floor Plan Loan, Swing Line Loan and any Swing Line Overdraft Loan or of the proceeds of the sale of any Motor Vehicle, on the date when due in Dollars to the Floor Plan Agent at the office specified by the Floor Plan

Agent. The Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest on any Acquisition Loan denominated in Dollars on the date when due in Dollars to the Agent at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or by wire transfer to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., ABA#▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, for credit to account #9008113381C2540, reference: Group 1 Automotive, Inc., Attn: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest on any Acquisition Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency to the Alternative Currency Agent at the place designated by said Agent in its notice therefor. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Borrowers shall make all payments (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing, the Agency Fee, or any other fees or other amounts) payable hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 1:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time if being paid to the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent, and London time if being paid to the Alternative Currency Agent and, in each case, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. The Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or the Alternative Currency Agent, as the case may be, shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.

(b) Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest and fees, if applicable; provided, all payments must be made on or before the Maturity Date.

(c) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent its portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing. The Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the appropriate Person on such date a corresponding amount. If, and to the extent that a Lender shall not have made its portion of a Borrowing available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally, agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Agent until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent (i) in the case of the Borrowers, (A) at the Alternate Base Rate for Acquisition Loans made in Dollars, (B) at the Comerica Prime-based Rate for Floor Plan Loans and (C) at the Pounds Sterling Rate or Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable for Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for all Dollar denominated Loans and at the Eurocurrency Rate or Pounds Sterling Rate, as applicable, for all Alternative Currency denominated Loans. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 5.13 Sharing of Setoffs. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.6(b) in connection with the payment of Swing Line Overdraft Loans, each Lender agrees that if it shall, in any manner, including through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of the Note held by it as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of the Note held by it shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Note held by any other Lender, it shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased from such other Lender a participation in the Note held by such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Note and participations in Notes held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Notes then outstanding as the principal amount of the Note held by it prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim was to the principal amount of all Notes outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim; provided, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 5.13 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter

be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrowers expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Person holding a participation in a Note under this Section 5.13 may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by any such Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 5.14 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of the Borrowers under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from or in respect of any sum payable by a Withholding Agent then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.14) the applicable Recipient shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholding been made.

(b) The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Recipient, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.14) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth the amount of such payment or liability (including all assumptions and the basis therefor) delivered to the Company by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.3(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes each of the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document against any amount due to the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.14, such Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certified

copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will enable the Company or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in (f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.14-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the

Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form); or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.14-2 or Exhibit 5.14-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.14-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the relevant Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the relevant Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all related out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties,

interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) For purposes of this Section 5.14, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(i) Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligation under any Loan Document.

Section 5.15 Applicable Interest Rate.

(a) The Company shall have the right with respect to Acquisition Loan Borrowings, at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Agent (x) not later than 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the date of conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (y) not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, three (3) Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert all or any portion of any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing, to continue all or any portion of any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, or to select another interest period therefor, and (z) not later than 11:00 a.m., London time, four (4) Business Days prior to continuation, to continue all or any portion of any Eurocurrency Borrowing or Pounds Sterling Borrowing as a Borrowing in the same currency for an additional Interest Period, subject, in each case, to the following:

(i) each conversion or continuation shall be made among the Lenders, in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments subject to the provisions of Section 3.1(b) and Section 3.2(c)(ii) hereof;

(ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any such Acquisition Loan shall be converted or continued, the aggregate principal amount of such Acquisition Loan converted or continued shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000, and not less than 1,000,000 Dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling as appropriate;

(iii) if any Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Company shall pay any amounts due to the Lenders under Section 5.10;

(iv) any portion of a Borrowing required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, Eurocurrency Borrowing or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, as the case may be;

(v) (A) any portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of clause (iv) above shall be automatically converted at the end

of the Interest Period in effect for such Acquisition Loan Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing and (B) any portion of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or Pounds Sterling Borrowing that cannot be continued as such by reason of clause (iv) above shall be converted into a Borrowing at a rate determined by the Alternative Currency Agent, in its sole discretion, to be the then approximate equivalent of the rate previously being charged on said Borrowing; and

(vi) accrued interest on an Acquisition Loan (or portion thereof) being converted or continued shall be paid by the Company at the time of conversion or continuation.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 5.15(a) shall be irrevocable and specify (w) the identity and amount of the Acquisition Loan Borrowing that the Company requests to be converted or continued, (x) whether such Acquisition Loan Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (y) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (z) if such Acquisition Loan Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing, the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. The Agent or Alternative Currency Agent, as applicable, shall promptly advise the other Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 5.15(a) and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing and the applicable interest rate. If the Company shall not have given written notice in accordance with this Section 5.15(a) to continue any Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given written notice in accordance with this Section 5.15(a) to convert such Acquisition Loan Borrowing), such Acquisition Loan Borrowing shall be automatically continued for an identical Interest Period to the one expiring.

(b) The Company shall have the right with respect to Floor Plan Loan Borrowings, on behalf of any Floor Plan Borrower, at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Agent (x) not later than 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the date of conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into a Comerica Prime Rate Borrowing, (y) not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, one Business Day prior to conversion or continuation, to convert all or any portion of any Comerica Prime Rate Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue all or any portion of any Eurodollar Borrowing of any Floor Plan Borrower as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, and (z) not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert all or any portion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period subject in each case to the following:

(i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders, in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments;

(ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing shall be converted or continued, the aggregate principal amount of such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing converted or continued shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000;

(iii) any portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than seven (7) days may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing;

of the Interest Period in effect for such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing into a Comerica Prime Rate Borrowing; and

(v) accrued interest on an Floor Plan Loan (or portion thereof) being converted or continued shall be paid by the Company at the time of conversion or continuation.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 5.15(b) shall be irrevocable and specify (w) the identity and amount of the Floor Plan Loan Borrowing that the Company requests to be converted or continued, (x) whether such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or a Comerica Prime Rate Borrowing, (y) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (z) if such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. The Agent shall promptly advise the other Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 5.15(b) and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Company shall not have given written notice in accordance with this Section 5.15(b) to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given written notice in accordance with this Section 5.15(b) to convert such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing), such Floor Plan Loan Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an identical Interest Period to the one expiring.

Section 5.16 Extension of Maturity Date.

(a) If no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Company may, by written notice to Agent (with sufficient copies for each Lender) (which notice shall be irrevocable and which shall not be effective unless actually received by Agent) prior to April 1, but not before March 1, of each fiscal year, request that the Lenders extend the then applicable Maturity Date to a date that is one year later than the Maturity Date then in effect. Each Lender shall, not later than April 30th of such fiscal year, give written notice to the Agent stating whether such Lender is willing to extend the Maturity Date as requested. If Agent has received the written approvals of such request from each of the Lenders, then, effective upon the date of the Agent’s receipt of all such written approvals from the Lenders, the Maturity Date shall be so extended for an additional one year period, the term “Maturity Date” means such extended date and the Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders that such extension has occurred.

(b) If (i) any Lender gives the Agent written notice that it is unwilling to extend the Maturity Date as requested or (ii) any Lender fails to provide written approval to Agent of such a request on or before April 30 of such fiscal year, then, subject to Section 5.17(b)(iv), the Lenders shall be deemed to have declined to extend the Maturity Date, and the then-current Maturity Date shall remain in effect.

Section 5.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement Lenders.

(a) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.8 or Section 5.14 or an illegality under Section 5.9 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the Company or to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts or remove such illegality which may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers

hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with the making of such a filing or change.

(b) If any Lender (i) makes a demand for compensation pursuant to Section 5.8(a), Section 5.8(b) or Section 5.8(c), (ii) notifies the Agent of the unlawfulness of such Lender making or maintaining Eurodollar, Eurocurrency or Pounds Sterling Loans as provided in Section 5.9, (iii) requests the Borrowers to make payments for Taxes pursuant to Section 5.14, (iv) gives the Agent notice as provided in Section 5.16(b) that it is unwilling to extend the Maturity Date or fails to provide approval of such extension or fails to approve any amendment, consent or waiver requiring the approval of all Lenders but which has been approved by Lenders having at least 80% of the Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments or (v) is a Defaulting Lender, then in any such event the Company may, unless such Lender has notified the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such event no longer apply, terminate, in whole but not in part, the Commitments of such Lender (the “Terminated Lender”) at any time upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Terminated Lender and the Agent (such notice referred to herein as a “Notice of Termination”).

(c) In order to effect the termination of the Commitments of a Terminated Lender, the Company shall (i) obtain an agreement with one or more Lenders to increase their Commitments, (ii) request any one or more other Persons to become a “Lender” in place and instead of such Terminated Lender and agree to accept its Commitments subject to the terms hereof or (iii) request a reduction under Section 5.5(a); provided, such one or more other such Persons are Eligible Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Agent (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and become parties by executing an Assignment and Acceptance (the Lenders or other Persons that agree to accept in whole or in part the Commitments being referred to herein as the “Replacement Lenders”), such that the aggregate increased and/or accepted Commitments of the Replacement Lenders under clauses (i) and (ii) above equal the Commitments of the Terminated Lenders; provided, further, that (A) in the case of any assignment to a Replacement Lender resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.8 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter and (B) in the case of any assignment to a Replacement Lender resulting from the circumstances described in Section 5.17(b)(iv), such Replacement Lender shall have consented to the applicable extension, amendment, consent or waiver.

(d) The Notice of Termination shall include the name of the Terminated Lender, the date the termination will occur (the “Termination Date”), the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders to which the Terminated Lender will assign its Commitments, and, if there will be more than one Replacement Lender, the portion of the Terminated Lender’s Commitments to be assigned to each Replacement Lender.

(e) On the Termination Date: (i) the Terminated Lender shall by execution and delivery of an Assignment and Acceptance assign its Commitments to the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders (pro rata, if there is more than one Replacement Lender, in proportion to the portion of the Terminated Lender’s Commitments to be assigned to each Replacement Lender) indicated in the Notice of Termination and shall assign to the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders its then outstanding Loans so assigned then outstanding (pro rata as aforesaid), (ii) the Terminated Lender shall endorse its applicable Note(s), payable without recourse, representation or warranty to the order of the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders (pro rata as aforesaid), (iii) the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders shall purchase the Note(s) held by the Terminated Lender (pro rata as aforesaid) at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount thereof plus interest and fees accrued and unpaid to the Termination Date, (iv) the Company and each Borrower shall, upon request, execute and deliver, at its own expense, new Notes to the Replacement Lenders in accordance with their respective interests, (v) the Company shall, upon request, pay any compensation or other amounts due to the Terminated Lender hereunder and (vi) the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders will thereupon (pro rata as aforesaid) succeed to and be substituted in all respects for the Terminated

Lender to the extent of such assignment from and after such date with the like effect as if becoming a Lender pursuant to the terms of Section 13.3. To the extent not in conflict, the terms of Section 13.3 shall supplement the provisions of this Section 5.17.

Section 5.18 Increase of Commitments.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may request an increase of the Total Commitment by notice thereof to the Agent in writing (such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”), in an amount not less than $25,000,000 nor more than $300,000,000 in the aggregate. The Agent will provide the Lenders with notice of such Commitment Increase Notice. Such increase shall be allocated between the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment and Total Acquisition Loan Commitment as requested by Borrower, provided, following any such increase, the Acquisition Loan Commitment shall not exceed 20% of the Total Commitment. Any such Commitment Increase Notice shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, and must offer each Lender the opportunity to subscribe for its pro rata share of each increased Commitment. If the Company does not receive either telephonic or written notice from the Agent that all of the increased Commitment is subscribed for by the Lenders within fifteen (15) Business Days after the delivery of the Commitment Increase Notice, the Company may, in its sole discretion, but with the consent of the Agent as to any Person that is not at such time a Lender, offer to any existing Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of such unsubscribed portion of the increased Commitments pursuant to Section 5.18(b) or Section 5.18(c), as applicable.

(b) Any additional bank or financial institution that the Company selects to offer participation in the increased Commitments, and that elects to become a party to this Agreement with the Company and the Agent (a “New Lender”), by the execution of an agreement (a “New Lender Agreement”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.18(b), shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereof and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. The Commitment of any such New Lender shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000, and such Commitment must be comprised of both a Floor Plan Loan Commitment and an Acquisition Loan Commitment, both in the same ratio with respect to the Total Floor Plan Loan Commitment and the Total Acquisition Loan Commitment. Upon delivery to the Agent of one or more New Lender Agreements, the Agent shall enter such New Lender and its Commitment in the Register and distribute a new Schedule 1.1(a) reflecting the Commitment of such New Lender and the Total Commitment, as increased.

(c) Any Lender that accepts an offer by the Company to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section 5.18 shall, in each case, execute an agreement whereby it agrees to be bound by, and accept the benefits of, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (a “Commitment Increase Agreement”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.18(c), with the Company and the Agent. Upon delivery to the Agent of one or more Commitment Increase Agreements, the Agent shall enter such Lender’s increased Commitment in the Register and distribute a new Schedule 1.1(a) reflecting the increased Commitment of such Lender and the Total Commitment, as increased.

(d) The effectiveness of any Commitment Increase Agreement shall be contingent upon receipt by the Agent of such corporate resolutions of the Company and legal opinions of counsel to the Company as the Agent shall reasonably request with respect thereto, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) Additional Loans made on or after the date that any bank or financial institution becomes a New Lender pursuant to Section 5.18(b) or any Lender’s Commitment is increased pursuant to Section 5.18(c) (the “Re-Allocation Date”) shall be made pro rata based on the Lenders’ respective

Commitments in effect on or after such Re-Allocation Date (except to the extent that any such pro rata borrowings would result in any Lender making an aggregate principal amount of Loans in excess of its Commitment, in which case such excess amount will be allocated to, and made by, such New Lender and/or Lenders with such increased Commitments to the extent of, and pro rata based on, their respective Commitments), and continuations of any Loans subject to an Interest Period outstanding on such Re-Allocation Date shall be effected by repayment of such Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and the making of new Loans pro rata based on the respective Commitments in effect on and after such Re-Allocation Date. In the event that on any such Re-Allocation Date there is an unpaid principal amount of any Loans subject to an Interest Period, such Loans shall remain outstanding with the respective holders thereof until the expiration of their respective Interest Periods (unless the Company elects to prepay any thereof in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement), and interest on and repayments of such Loans will be paid thereon to the respective Lenders holding such Loans pro rata based on the respective principal amounts thereof outstanding.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.18, (i) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion and (ii) after giving effect to any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 5.18, the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $2,100,000,000.

(g) The Company shall execute and deliver a Note or Notes to each New Lender and replacement Notes to Lenders signing a Commitment Increase Agreement in the amount of said Persons’ Commitments.

Section 5.19 Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Company shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 5.20(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount equal to the Fronting Exposure at such time. In the event the Company Cash Collateralizes the Swing Line Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender as contemplated by Section 5.20(a)(v), the provisions of this Section 5.19 shall apply equally to such Cash Collateral for the benefit of the Swing Line Bank and its Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender.

(a) The Company, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Fronting Exposure as of such date, the Company will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 5.19 or Section 5.20 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.19 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 5.20, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

Section 5.20 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments, Pro Rata Share of Floor Plan Loan Commitments, Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments and Required Lenders and the last sentence of Section 13.7(b).

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.5 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Bank hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 5.19; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 5.19; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share or Letter of Credit Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not funded the appropriate amount, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Advances owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit

Advances owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective Commitments without giving effect to Section 5.20(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.20 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fees pursuant to Section 5.4(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees pursuant to Section 6.7(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its pro rata share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 5.19.

(C) With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Company shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or the Swing Line Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and Swing Line Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with (A) their respective Pro Rata Shares of Acquisition Loan Commitments in the case of such Letter of Credit Exposure and (B) their respective Pro Rata Shares of Floor Plan Loan Commitments in the case of such Swing Line Exposure (in each case, calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ outstanding Loans, Swing Line Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments. Subject to Section 13.21, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (at its discretion, or acting at the request of the Swing Line Bank or any Issuing Bank), without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, Cash Collateralize or prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s

Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.19.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Swing Line Bank and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans, Letter of Credit Exposure and Swing Line Exposure to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitments (without giving effect to Section 5.20(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender, after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender after giving effect thereto.

Article VI

LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 6.1 General.

(a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) each Issuing Bank severally agrees from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Business Day which is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date (the “Letter of Credit Termination Date”) to Issue one or more Letter or Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower; and (ii) the Acquisition Loan Lenders severally agree to participate in such Letters of Credit; provided, that no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to Issue, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if, as of the date of request of such Letter of Credit, after giving effect to the maximum amount payable under such Letter of Credit, (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding shall at any time exceed the aggregate Letter of Credit Commitments of all Issuing Banks, (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding in respect of Letters of Credit Issued by such Issuing Bank shall at any time exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment or (C) the aggregate principal amount of Acquisition Loans outstanding, plus the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding as of such day, shall exceed the Acquisition Loan Advance Limit. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the ability of the Borrowers to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Borrowers may, prior to the Letter of Credit Termination Date, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

(b) No Issuing Bank is under any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit if: (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any

request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit such Issuing Bank, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain, from the Issuance of Letters of Credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Bank in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it; (ii) such Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or any Borrower, on or before the Business Day prior to the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the conditions contained in Section 8.3 in respect of Acquisition Loans is not then satisfied; (iii) the expiration date of any requested Letter of Credit is more than one (1) year from the date of Issuance thereof or after the Maturity Date; or (iv) any requested Letter of Credit is not in form and substance acceptable to such Issuing Bank, or the Issuance of such Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of such Issuing Bank or, the Issuance of a Letter of Credit is for an amount less than $100,000 or to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars.

Section 6.2 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit.

(a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon the irrevocable written request of the Company received by the relevant Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by any Borrower to the Agent) at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter time as the relevant Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of Issuance. Each such request for Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed immediately in writing, in the form of a Letter of Credit Application. Each Letter of Credit (i) will be for the account of such Borrower, (ii) will be a non-transferable standby letter of credit to support certain payment or performance obligations of such Borrower, (iii) will be for purposes reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank and (iv) will contain such terms and provisions as may be customarily required by the relevant Issuing Bank.

(b) Prior to the Issuance of any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the Letter of Credit Application or Letter of Credit Amendment Application from any Borrower and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the relevant Issuing Bank (i) has received notice prior to its Issuance of a requested Letter of Credit from the Agent (A) directing such Issuing Bank not to Issue such Letter of Credit because such Issuance is not then permitted under this Section 6.2, or (B) that one or more conditions specified in Article VIII are not then satisfied or waived or (ii) is otherwise not obligated to issue such Letter of Credit under Section 6.1, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices.

(c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Letter of Credit Termination Date, the relevant Issuing Bank will, upon the written request of any Borrower received by such Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by the Borrower to the Agent) at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter time as such Issuing Bank may agree in particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of amendment or extension, amend any Letter of Credit Issued by it or extend the expiry date. Each such request for amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, made in such form as the relevant Issuing Bank shall require. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend or extend the expiry date any Letter of Credit if: (i) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to Issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement; or (ii) the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(d) Upon receipt of notice from the relevant Issuing Bank, the Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of the Issuance of a Letter of Credit and any amendment or extension thereto.

(e) If any outstanding Letter of Credit shall provide that it shall be automatically renewed unless the beneficiary thereof receives notice from the relevant Issuing Bank that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed, the relevant Issuing Bank shall be permitted to allow such Letter of Credit to renew, and the Borrowers and the Lenders hereby authorize such renewal. The relevant Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to allow such Letter of Credit to renew if such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to Issue or amend such Letter of Credit under the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Any Issuing Bank may, at its election (or as required by the Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders), deliver any notices of termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiration date of any Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the Maturity Date.

(g) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any Letter of Credit Related Document.

(h) Each Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Agent, concurrently or promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment or extension to a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and complete copy of each such Letter of Credit, amendment, or extension to a Letter of Credit.

Section 6.3 Risk Participations, Drawings and Reimbursements.

(a) Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Acquisition Loan Lenders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agree to, and hereby, purchase from the relevant Issuing Bank participation interests in such Letters of Credit and each drawing thereunder, ratably in amounts equal to the product of (i) each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments, and (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing respectively. Each Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Acquisition Loan Commitment of each Acquisition Loan Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation (including for the purpose of calculating fees payable pursuant to Section 5.4).

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the relevant Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Company. In the case of Letters of Credit under which drawings are payable one or more Business Days after the drawing is made, the relevant Issuing Bank will give such notice to the Company at least one Business Day prior to the Honor Date. The Company shall reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank prior to 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on each date that any amount is paid by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Bank. In the event the Company fails to reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the Honor Date, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Agent and the Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have requested an Alternate Base Rate Loan that is an Acquisition Loan be made by the Lenders to be disbursed on the Honor Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Acquisition Loan Commitment. Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or the Agent pursuant to this Section 6.3(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by facsimile); provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) The Acquisition Loan Lenders shall, subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments upon any notice pursuant to Section 6.3(b) make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank an amount in Dollars and in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the drawing, whereupon the Lenders shall each be deemed to have made an Acquisition Loan consisting of an Alternate Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in that amount. If any Acquisition Loan Lender so notified fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank said amount by no later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, on the Honor Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Lender makes such payment, at the rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time during such period. The Agent will promptly give notice to each Lender of the occurrence of any Honor Date, but failure of the Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligations under this Section 6.3.

(d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into an Alternate Base Rate Loan in whole or in part, because of failure of the Company to satisfy the conditions set forth in Article VIII or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant Issuing Bank a Letter of Credit Borrowing in the amount of such drawing, which Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum, and each Lender’s payment to such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 6.3(b) shall constitute payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 6.3.

(e) Each Acquisition Loan Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make Acquisition Loans or Letter of Credit Advances, as contemplated by this Section 6.3, as a result of a drawing under the Letter of Credit, shall be absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the relevant Issuing Bank and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such Issuing Bank, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Section 6.4 Repayment of Participation.

(a) When the Agent receives (and only if the Agent receives), for the account of an Issuing Bank, immediately available funds from the Borrowers (i) in respect of which any Acquisition Loan Lender has paid the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank for such Lender’s participation in the Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to Section 6.3 or (ii) in payment of interest thereon, the Agent will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, the amount of such funds attributable to each such Lender and such Issuing Bank shall receive and retain the amount of such funds attributable to any Lender that did not so pay the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank.

(b) If the Agent or an Issuing Bank is required at any time to return to the Borrowers or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in an Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Borrowers to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 6.4(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit Advance or interest thereon, each of the Acquisition Loan Lenders shall, on demand of the Agent, in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments, forthwith return to the Agent or such Issuing Bank the amount so returned by the Agent or such Issuing Bank plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such

amounts are returned by such Lender to the Agent or such Issuing Bank, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

Section 6.5 Role of the Issuing Bank.

(a) Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and other documents, if any, expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.

Section 6.7 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of each of the Acquisition Loan Lenders a letter of credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fees”) with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit equal to the greater of: (i) $500, or (ii) (A) the lesser of (x) the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans that are Acquisition Loans or (y) one and one half percent (1.50%) per annum multiplied by the average daily maximum amount potentially available to be drawn on such outstanding Letters of Credit at any time during the term thereof up to an aggregate face amount of $15,000,000, and (B) the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans that are Acquisition Loans for the daily average face amount available in excess of $15,000,000.

(c) Calculation of Fees. The Letter of Credit Fees and the Fronting Fees each shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears within three Business Days after the last day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days).

as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Agent as Collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Funds in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held in a blocked, interest-bearing account held by the Agent upon such terms and in such type of account as customary at the depository institution.

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

So long as this Agreement shall remain in effect or the principal of or interest on any Note, any Commitment Fees or any other fee, expense or amount payable hereunder shall be unpaid and until the Commitments of all the Lenders shall expire or terminate, until no Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding, and until all Drafting Agreements are terminated, the Company, as to itself and each of its Subsidiaries, and each of the Borrowers other than the Company, as to itself and its Subsidiaries only, covenant and agree with the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Swing Line Bank, each Issuing Bank and each Lender that:

Section 9.1 Existence. The Company will maintain and preserve, and except as permitted by Section 10.3, will cause each other Borrower to maintain and preserve, its respective existence and good standing under the laws of its state of jurisdiction, as a corporation or other form of business organization, as the case may be, and all rights, privileges, licenses, patents, patent rights, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, franchises and other authority to the extent material and necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses in the ordinary course as conducted from time to time.

Section 9.2 Maintenance of Properties, Licenses and Permits; Compliance with Laws. The Company will maintain, preserve and keep, and will cause each other Borrower to maintain, preserve and keep, all of its properties in good repair, working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted). The Company will make, and will cause each other Borrower to make, all necessary and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto so that at all times the efficiency thereof shall be fully preserved and maintained; the Company will at all times do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect, and will cause each other Borrower to do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect, the rights, licenses, permits, franchises, patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade names material to the conduct of its businesses; the Company and each other Borrower will maintain and operate such businesses in substantially the manner in which they are presently conducted and operated (subject to changes in the ordinary course of business); the Company and each other Borrower will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to the operation of such businesses whether now in effect or hereafter enacted and with all other applicable laws and regulations, including, without limitation, such laws and regulations applicable to the making of Investments permitted in Section 10.5, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and the Company and each other Borrower will take all action which may be required to obtain, preserve, renew and extend all licenses, permits and other authorizations which may be material to the operation of such businesses.

Section 9.3 Insurance. The Company will maintain, on a consolidated basis, insurance to such extent and against such hazards and liabilities as is commonly maintained by companies similarly situated or as may be required in the Security Documents including, without limitation with respect to Motor Vehicles owned by Floor Plan Borrowers and financed under this Agreement, naming the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, as additional loss payee.

(a) Unless the Company provides the Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage as required by the Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Agent (at its discretion, or acting at the request of the Floor Plan Agent) may purchase insurance at the Company’s expense to protect the Lenders’ interest. This insurance may, but need not, also protect the Company’s interest. If the Collateral becomes damaged, the coverage the Agent purchases may not pay any claim the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes or any claim made against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company may later cancel this coverage by providing evidence that the Company has obtained property coverage elsewhere.

(b) The Company is responsible for the cost of any insurance purchased by the Agent. The cost of this insurance may be added to the Obligations. If the cost is added to the Obligations, the interest rate provided in Section 5.3 shall apply to such added amount. The effective date of coverage may be the date the Company’s prior coverage lapsed or the date the Company failed to provide proof of coverage.

(c) The Company acknowledges that the coverage the Agent purchases may be considerably more expensive than insurance the Company can obtain on its own and may not satisfy any need for property damage coverage or any mandatory liability insurance requirements imposed by applicable law.

Section 9.4 Obligations and Taxes. The Company will pay and discharge and will cause each other Borrower to pay and discharge, when due, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, as well as all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies or otherwise unless and only to the extent that the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, is contesting such taxes, assessments and governmental charges, levies or claims in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and the Company or such Borrower has set aside on its books such reserves or other appropriate provisions therefor as may be required by GAAP.

Section 11.6 Application of Collateral.

(a) Upon the exercise of remedies by the Agent in accordance with this Article XI and pursuant to the procedures among the Lenders set forth in Section 11.6(b), the Agent, after giving written notice to the Borrowers and to all Lenders, all Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Bank of the action(s) to be taken, may at any time or times thereafter (i) receive directly, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and for application to the then outstanding Obligations as provided hereafter in this Section 11.6(a), all payments and proceeds related to the Collateral and/or (ii) in accordance with the Security Documents sell, assign and deliver all of the Collateral or any part thereof, or any substitution therefor or any additions thereto as provided hereafter. Any such sale or assignment may be at any broker’s board or at any public or private sale, at the option of the Agent or of any officer or representative acting on behalf of the Agent, without advertisement or any notice to the Borrowers or any other Person except those required by applicable law (the Borrowers hereby agreeing that ten (10) days’ notice constitutes “reasonable notice”); and each Lender (including the Agent), its officers and assigns, may bid and become purchasers at any such sale, if public, or at any broker’s board if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject

of widely distributed standard price quotations. Sales hereunder may be at such time or times, place or places, for cash or credit, and upon such terms and conditions as the Agent may determine in its sole discretion. Upon the completion of any sale, the Agent shall execute all instruments of transfer necessary to vest in the purchaser(s) title to the property sold, and shall deliver to such purchaser(s) any of the property so sold which may be in the possession of the Agent.

In the case of any sale or other liquidation of Collateral (other than amounts already in the Cash Collateral Account, which amount shall be applied as set forth in Section 6.8), the purchase money proceeds and avails and all other proceeds which then may be held or recovered by the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be applied in the following order:

(i) First, to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of such sale and of the collection or enforcement of such Collateral, and of all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities incurred and advances made by the Lenders in connection therewith;

(ii) Second, to the payment of any amounts due to Swing Line Bank in the form of Swing Line Overdraft Loans;

(iii) Third, to the payment of any amounts due to Swing Line Bank in the form of Swing Line Loans;

(iv) Fourth, to the payment ratably of the amounts due to the Lenders for interest and then principal on all Floor Plan Loans (other than Swing Line Loans and Swing Line Overdraft Loans) then outstanding that were funded from the Reserve Commitment without preference or priority of such Indebtedness owing to one Lender over another;

(v) Fifth, to the payment ratably of the amounts due to the Lenders for interest and then principal on all Floor Plan Loans not paid pursuant to (iii) or (iv) immediately above, without preference or priority of such Indebtedness owing to one Lender over another;

(vi) Sixth, to the payment ratably on actual amounts outstanding of (i) the amounts due to the Lenders for interest and then principal on all Acquisition Loans (which include all unreimbursed drawings under all Letter of Credit Obligations) first to Acquisition Loan Lenders that have Acquisition Loan Commitments in an Alternative Currency until such time as the amount owing to each of the Acquisition Loan Lenders under the Acquisition Loan is equal to its Pro Rata Share of Acquisition Loan Commitments and (ii) a Cash Collateral Account equal to the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, which account shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.8(a);

(vii) Seventh, to the payment ratably of the amounts due, without preference or priority of such Indebtedness, for all Obligations arising under Lender Hedging Agreements and Bank Products; and

(viii) Eighth, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to the Borrowers, their successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Security Documents, all Lenders making Floor Plan Loans and all Lenders making Acquisition Loans acknowledge that any proceeds resulting from the sale or other realization of any Collateral (other than amounts already in the Cash Collateral Account) shall be applied in the order described in Section 11.6(a), above, such that

all Swing Line Overdraft Loans shall be paid before Floor Plan Loans, all Floor Plan Loans shall be paid before Acquisition Loans, and all Acquisition Loans will be paid before any liabilities under any Lender Hedging Agreement or Bank Product. Such application will be made by the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent based on either of their calculations of all of such Indebtedness and the various classifications of any Loans made hereunder, which calculations shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. The intent of such classification shall be to create a priority of payments in the order stated notwithstanding that all of said Indebtedness is secured as a group by the Security Documents and the Collateral described therein.

(c) The Agent is not required to act with respect to the Collateral except in accordance with the written procedures as established by the Required Lenders; however, if the Required Lenders fail to agree upon and establish such procedures, and the exigency of the circumstances requires, the Agent, in its sole discretion and in good faith, may (but is not required to) take whatever action it deems necessary to protect and enforce the Collateral or the rights of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents.

(d) No Lender or the Swing Line Bank may enforce, or demand enforcement of, any rights or Liens with respect to the Collateral except upon the terms and conditions elsewhere stated in this Agreement.

THE AGENT, FLOOR PLAN AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL

(a) In order to expedite the various transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each Lender (on its own behalf and on behalf of any of its Affiliates from time to time party to any Lender Hedging Agreement or Bank Product), the Floor Plan Agent and the Swing Line Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act as Agent on its behalf. Each of the Lenders (on its own behalf and on behalf of any of its Affiliates from time to time party to any Lender Hedging Agreement or Bank Product), the Floor Plan Agent and the Swing Line Bank and each subsequent holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof, hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms and provisions hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents and employees. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, the Floor Plan Agent or the Swing Line Bank; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, expressed or implied, is intended to, or shall be so construed as to, impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. The Agent is hereby expressly authorized on behalf of the Lenders, the Floor Plan Agent and the Swing Line Bank, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (i) to receive on behalf of each of the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank any payment of principal of or interest on the Notes outstanding hereunder and all other amounts accrued hereunder paid to the Agent, and promptly to distribute to each Lender its proper share of all payments so received; (ii) to give notice within a reasonable time on behalf of each of the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank to the Borrowers of any Default or Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Agent has actual knowledge as provided in Section 12.7; (iii) to distribute to each Lender and the Swing Line Bank copies of all notices, agreements and other material as provided for in this Agreement as received by the Agent; (iv) to distribute to the Borrowers any and all requests, demands and approvals received by the Agent or from the Lenders, and (v) to distribute and receive all notices, agreements and other material as provided in this Agreement with respect to Floor Plan Loans and to deal with the Floor Plan Agent to the fullest extent required or contemplated by

the terms of their Agreement or any other Loan Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes and the Loans, the Floor Plan Agent and the Swing Line Bank; provided, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.

(b) The Agent shall hold all of the Collateral along with all payments and proceeds arising therefrom, for the benefit of all Secured Parties as security for the payment of all the Obligations subject to the provisions of Section 11.6(a). Upon payment in full of all the Obligations and termination of the Commitments, the Agent shall release all of the Collateral to the Borrowers. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in Section 13.5, the Agent, in its own name or in the name of the Borrowers, may enforce any of the rights provided for in the Security Documents and may collect, receive and receipt for all proceeds receivable on account of the Collateral.

(c) All payments and proceeds of every kind from the Collateral, when directly received by the Agent pursuant to Section 11.6(a) (whether from payments on or with respect to the Collateral, from foreclosure and sale to third parties, from sale of Collateral subsequent to a foreclosure at which the Agent or another Lender was the purchaser, or otherwise) shall be held by it as a part of the Collateral and, except as otherwise expressly provided hereinafter, shall be applied to the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 11.6(a).

Section 12.2 Agent’s Reliance.

(a) Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (it being the express intention of the parties hereto that the Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees shall have no liability for actions and omissions under this Section 12.2 resulting from their sole ordinary or contributory negligence).

(vii) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

Section 12.3 Agent and Affiliates; JPMorgan Chase and Affiliates. Without limiting the right of any other Lender or the Swing Line Bank to engage in any business transactions with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, with respect to their Commitments, the Loans, if any, made by them and the Notes, if any, issued to them, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in its individual capacity. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates may be engaged in, or may hereafter engage in, one or more loan, letter of credit, leasing or other financing activities not the subject of the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Other Financings”) with any of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, or may act as trustee on behalf of, or depository for, or otherwise engage in other business transactions with any of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates (all Other Financings and other such business transactions being collectively, the “Other Activities”) with no responsibility to account therefor to the Lenders or the Floor Plan Agent. Without limiting the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Swing Line Bank, or the Floor Plan Agent specifically set forth in the Loan Documents, no other Lender, the Swing Line Bank, nor the Floor Plan Agent shall have any interest in (a) any Other Activities, (b) any present or future guarantee by or for the account of any Borrower not contemplated or included in the Loan Documents, (c) any present or future offset exercised by the Agent in respect of any such Other Activities, (d) any present or future property taken as security for any such Other Activities or (e) any property now or hereafter in the possession or control of the Agent which may be or become security for the Obligations of any Borrower under the Loan Documents by reason of the general description of indebtedness secured, or of property contained in any other agreements, documents or instruments related to such Other Activities; provided, that if any payment in respect of such guarantees or such property or the proceeds thereof shall be applied to reduction of the Obligations evidenced hereunder and by the Notes, then each Lender, the Swing Line Bank and the Floor Plan Agent shall be entitled to share in such application according to its equitable portion of such Obligations.

Section 12.4 Lenders’ Indemnity of Agent.

(a) The Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document unless indemnified to the Agent’s satisfaction by the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank against loss, cost, liability and expense. If any indemnity furnished to the Agent shall become impaired, the Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is given. In addition, the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments, or if no Commitments are outstanding, the respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments immediately prior to the time the Total Commitment ceased to be outstanding held by each of them, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent (or either of them) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (including any action taken or omitted under Article II of this Agreement). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender and the Swing Line Bank agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its respective Pro Rata Share of the Total Commitments of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, administration, or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of

rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers. The provisions of this Section 12.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the payment of the Obligations and/or the assignment of any of the Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender or the Swing Line Bank shall be liable under this Section 12.4 to the Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank agrees, however, that it expressly intends, under this Section 12.4, to indemnify the Agent ratably as aforesaid for all such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising out of or resulting from the Agent’s sole ordinary or contributory negligence.

Section 12.5 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or any other Lender or the Swing Line Bank and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 7.5 or Section 9.5 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided herein the Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Swing Line Bank, the Floor Plan Agent and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, subject to the approval of the Company, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If within thirty (30) calendar days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, approved by the Company, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default and shall have accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank, organized or licensed under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent hereunder and under the Notes, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as the Agent hereunder and under the Notes, the provisions of this Article XII and Section 13.4 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the Notes.

Section 12.7 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender, the Swing Line Bank, the Floor Plan Agent or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or “notice of event of default,” as applicable. If the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders, the Swing Line Bank and the Floor Plan Agent and, if such notice is received from a Lender, the Swing Line Bank or the Floor Plan Agent, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the other Lenders, the Swing Line Bank

and the Company. The Agent shall be entitled to take action or refrain from taking action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 11.2 and Section 11.4.

(b) To the extent that any proceeds of the Motor Vehicles constituting Collateral includes notes or other instruments evidencing any monetary obligation to, or interest of, any Borrower, such Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Floor Plan Agent letters, executed by such Borrower and approved by counsel for the Floor Plan Agent, notifying the obligors to make payments directly to the Floor Plan Agent, such letters to be held by the Floor Plan Agent and sent to such obligors at its discretion.

Section 12.9 Floor Plan Agent’s Reliance.

(a) Neither the Floor Plan Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders acting by and through the Agent or (ii) in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (it being the express intention of the parties hereto that the Floor Plan Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees shall have no liability for actions and omissions under this Section 12.9 resulting from their sole ordinary or contributory negligence).

Without limiting the right of any other Lender, the Swing Line Bank or the Agent to engage in any business transactions with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, with respect to their Commitments, the Loans, if any, made by them and the Notes, if any, issued to them, Comerica Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Floor Plan Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Comerica Bank in its individual capacity. Unless prohibited hereby, Comerica Bank and its Affiliates may be engaged in, or may hereafter engage in, one or more Other Financings with the Company, any other Borrower or any of their Affiliates, or may act as trustee on behalf of, or depository for, or otherwise engage in Other Activities with no responsibility to account therefor to the Lenders or the Agent.

Section 12.11 Floor Plan Agent’s Indemnity.

(a) The Floor Plan Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document unless indemnified to the Floor Plan Agent’s satisfaction by the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank, against loss, cost, liability and expense. If any indemnity furnished to the Floor Plan Agent shall become impaired, it may call for additional indemnity and cease to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is given. In addition, the Lenders and the Swing Line Bank agree to indemnify the Floor Plan Agent (to the extent not

reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments, or if no Commitments are outstanding, the respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments immediately prior to the time the Total Commitment ceased to be outstanding held by each of them, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Floor Plan Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Floor Plan Agent under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (including action taken or omitted under Article II or Article IV of this Agreement). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender and the Swing Line Bank agrees to reimburse the Floor Plan Agent promptly upon demand for its respective Pro Rata Share of the Total Commitments of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Floor Plan Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, administration, or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to the extent that the Floor Plan Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers. The provisions of this Section 12.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the payment of the Loans and/or the assignment of any of the Notes.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender nor the Swing Line Bank shall be liable under this Section 12.11 to the Floor Plan Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Floor Plan Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank agrees however, that it expressly intends, under this Section 12.11, to indemnify the Floor Plan Agent ratably as aforesaid for all such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising out of or resulting from the Floor Plan Agent’s sole ordinary or contributory negligence.

Section 12.12 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Floor Plan Agent, the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 7.5 and Section 9.5 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Floor Plan Agent, the Swing Line Bank, the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder.

Section 12.13 Resignation of Floor Plan Agent; Successor Floor Plan Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Floor Plan Agent as provided herein, the Floor Plan Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Agent and the Company. Prior to the effectiveness of the termination of the existing Floor Plan Agent, the Floor Plan Agent shall also be terminated as Swing Line Bank and all Swing Line Loans, Swing Line Overdraft Loans outstanding as of such date and all amounts funded by the Floor Plan Agent pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof shall be purchased by the successor Floor Plan Agent or the Lenders, and all of the obligations of the Floor Plan Agent pursuant to any drafting agreements issued by the Floor Plan Agent pursuant to Section 2.8 hereof shall have been irrevocably assumed by the successor Floor Plan Agent, and the successor Floor Plan Agent shall have agreed to indemnify the existing Floor Plan Agent in connection with any costs, liabilities or obligations arising out of, or in any way connected with, the transfer of such drafting agreements to the Successor Floor Plan Agent. Upon any such resignation or termination, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Floor Plan Agent, subject to the approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If no successor Floor Plan Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, approved by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment, all within thirty (30) calendar days after the resignation or termination of the Floor Plan Agent, then the Agent shall, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Floor Plan Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Floor Plan Agent hereunder, such successor Floor Plan Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Floor Plan Agent, and the retiring Floor Plan Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Floor Plan Agent’s resignation as the Floor Plan Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Article XII and Section 13.4 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Floor Plan Agent under this Agreement.

Section 12.14 Notice of Default. Neither the Agent nor the Floor Plan Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower, a Lender or the Swing Line Bank, stating that such Default or Event of Default has occurred and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or “notice of event of default”, as applicable. If the Floor Plan Agent receives such a notice, the Floor Plan Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders, the Swing Line Bank and the Agent. If the Floor Plan Agent receives such a notice, the Floor Plan Agent shall be entitled to take action or refrain from taking action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 12.8 and Section 12.9.

Section 13.3 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrowers, the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. Except as permitted by Section 10.3, no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or Obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders.

(b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including a portion of its Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the Note held by it); provided, that (i) no such assignment

shall be made unless such assignment and assignee have been approved by the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Bank and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Company, such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that such approval of the Company shall not be required if the assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, provided further, that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within five Business Days after having received written notice thereof, (ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations to this Agreement, and be pro rata between the Acquisition Loan Commitment of such Lender and the Floor Plan Loan Commitment of such Lender, (iii) the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall (A) be equal to the entire amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender or (B) if not equal to the entire amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender, in no event be less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided, for purposes of this Section 13.3(b), that the retained Commitment of the assigning Lender may not be less than $5,000,000, (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit 13.3(b) hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), together with any Note subject to such assignment and the assignor shall pay to the Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,000 payable by the Lender’s assignor thereunder, (v) the assignee shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and (vi) no such assignment shall be made to (A) the Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or a Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or a Subsidiary thereof or (C) a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be no later than five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof unless otherwise agreed to by the assigning Lender, the Eligible Assignee thereunder and the Agent, (x) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and under the other Loan Documents and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (y) the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by any of the Borrowers of any of their Obligations under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements most recently delivered under Section 7.5 or Section 9.5 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such Lender’s assignor or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee and has, to the extent required, complied with the covenants contained in Section 5.14;

(vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 13.1 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of demonstrable error, and the Borrowers and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the Loan Documents. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon request, the Agent will send a copy of the Register to the Company.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee together with the Note subject to such assignment, the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 13.3(b) and, if required, the Company’s written consent to such assignment, the Agent shall (subject to the consent of the Company to such assignment, if required), if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in the form of Exhibit 13.3(b), (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Company, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver and shall cause each of the other Borrowers to execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note a new Note to such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the assigning Lender’s Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, and a new Note to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the portion of its Commitment retained by the assigning Lender hereunder. Such new Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit 1.1C or Exhibit 1.1F, as applicable. Each canceled Note shall be promptly returned to the Company.

(f) Each Lender may without the consent of any Borrower or the Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the cost protection provisions and Tax indemnities contained in Article V only to the same extent that the Lender from which such participating bank or other entity acquired its participation would be entitled to the benefit of such cost protection provisions and Tax indemnities and (iv) the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Obligations of any of the Borrowers relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers with respect to any fees payable hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, or the dates fixed for payments of principal of or interest on the Loans). To the extent permitted by law, each participant shall also be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.5 as though it were a Lender; provided that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it entered the name and address of each participant and

the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 13.3, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to any Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of any of the Borrowers; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions, including without limitation the provisions of Section 13.19) to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to any Borrower received from such Lender.

(h) Anything in this Section 13.3 to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time, without the consent of any Borrower or the Agent, assign and pledge all or any portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank (and its transferees) as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or central bank. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(i) All transfers of any interest in any Note hereunder shall be in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, if applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, however, the parties to this Agreement do not intend that any transfer under this Section 13.13 be construed as a “purchase” or “sale” of a “security” within the meaning of any applicable federal or state securities laws.

Section 13.4 Expenses of the Agents and Lenders; Indemnity.

(a) The Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent in connection with the preparation of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents or with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or reasonably incurred by the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement or with the Loans made or the Notes issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the counsel for the Agent and the Floor Plan Agent, and, in connection with such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees and disbursements of other counsel for any Lender and costs and fees associated with floor plan audits, to the extent not previously paid by Borrowers. The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Lenders from and hold them harmless against any documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the Notes or other Loan Documents.

(b) THE BORROWERS EACH AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE AGENT, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT AND THE LENDERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”) AGAINST, AND TO HOLD THE LENDERS AND SUCH OTHER

INDEMNITEES HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING REASONABLE COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (I) THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER (INCLUDING THE MAKING OF THE COMMITMENT OF EACH LENDER) AND CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, (II) THE USE OF PROCEEDS OF THE LOANS OR (III) ANY ACTUAL OR PROSPECTIVE CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY, WHETHER BROUGHT BY A THIRD PARTY OR BY ANY BORROWER, WHETHER OR NOT ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO; PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, APPLY TO ANY SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES THAT (I) ARE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE OR (II) ARISE FROM ANY DISPUTE SOLELY AMONG INDEMNITEES (OTHER THAN ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE AGENT, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT, THE SWING LINE BANK OR ANY ISSUING BANK, IN EACH CASE, IN ITS CAPACITY AS SUCH) NOT INVOLVING AN ACT OR OMISSION BY THE COMPANY OR ITS AFFILIATES. THE BORROWERS AGREE THAT THEY EXPRESSLY INTEND TO INDEMNIFY EACH INDEMNITEE FROM AND HOLD EACH OF THEM HARMLESS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE ORDINARY SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH INDEMNITEE BUT NOT THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE AS DETERMINED IN A FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. THIS SECTION 13.4(b) SHALL NOT APPLY WITH RESPECT TO TAXES OTHER THAN ANY TAXES THAT REPRESENT LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, ETC. ARISING FROM ANY NON-TAX CLAIM.

(c) The provisions of this Section 13.4 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 13.4 shall be payable within ten (10) days following receipt by the Company of a detailed invoice or statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such claim and the amounts so expended or lost or the amount of damages so incurred.

(d) No Indemnitee may settle any claim to be indemnified without prior written notice to the Company; provided, however, failure to provide such prior written notice shall in no way affect the settlement of such claims.

(e) In the case of any indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee shall give notice to the Company of any such claim or demand being made against the Indemnitee and the Company may participate in such proceeding at its own expense if legal counsel to the Company is acceptable to the Agent.

(f) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party to this Agreement, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual

damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this paragraph (f) shall relieve the Company or any other Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party to the extent such Indemnitee would otherwise be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

Section 13.5 Right of Setoff. If either (i) an Acquisition Event of Default (other than an Acquisition Event of Default under Section 11.1(n)) or (ii) a Floor Plan Event of Default with respect to which the remedies described in Section 11.4(c) may be exercised shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and the Swing Line Bank are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender, the Swing Line Bank or any branch Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any of and all the Obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender and the Swing Line Bank, respectively, according to their respective rights as otherwise provided herein, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such Obligations may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over to immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owed to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender and the Swing Line Bank agree promptly to notify the Borrowers after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and the Swing Line Bank under this Section 13.5 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender and the Swing Line Bank may have under applicable law. Each Lender hereby specifically agrees that in order to ensure that it has control over said deposit accounts (as defined in the UCC), it will act in accordance with the instructions from the Agent in regard to the disposition of the funds in said deposit accounts without further consent from any Borrower. The Lenders agree to indemnify each other (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments, or if no Commitments are outstanding, the respective Pro Rata Share of Total Commitments immediately prior to the time the Total Commitment ceased to be outstanding held by each of them, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Lender in any way relating to or arising out of any action taken or omitted by such Lender in connection with its exercise of set off rights for credit to any or all of the Obligations.

Section 13.6 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents and all other documents executed in connection herewith, shall be deemed to be contracts and agreements executed by the Borrowers, the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent and the Lenders under the laws of the State of Texas and of the United States of America and for all purposes shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of said State and of the United States of America. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights which any Lender may have under applicable federal legislation relating to the amount of interest which such Lender may contract for, take, receive, or charge in respect of any Loans, including any right to contract

for, take, receive, reserve and charge interest at the rate allowed by the law of the state where such Lender is located. If and to the extent the laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the Highest Lawful Rate, such term shall mean the “weekly ceiling” from time to time in effect under Section 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended (the “Act”), or, if permitted by applicable law and effective upon the giving of the notices required by the Act (or effective upon any other date otherwise specified by applicable law), the “monthly”, “quarterly” or “annualized” ceiling from time to time in effect under the Act, whichever Agent shall elect to substitute for the “weekly ceiling,” and vice versa, each such substitution to have the effect provided in the Act, and Agent shall be entitled to make such election from time to time one or more times and, without notice to Borrower, to leave any such substitute rate in effect for subsequent periods in accordance with the Act. The provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended, do not apply to this Agreement or any Note issued hereunder.

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Texas state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the City of Houston or County of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Texas, and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state or United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Collateral is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any Texas state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the City of Houston or County of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Texas may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such Borrower at its address stated in Section 13.1, or at a subsequent address of which the Agent received actual notice from such Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Each Borrower, to the extent it is not qualified to do business in Texas, hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Company, with offices at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any such action or proceedings.

Section 13.7 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay of the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Swing Line Bank or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Swing Line Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents or consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be authorized as provided in Section 13.7(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Each holder of any Note shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver or consent authorized as provided herein, whether or not such Note shall have been marked to indicate such amendment, modification, waiver or consent.

(b) Neither this Agreement, any Note, any Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to a written agreement or agreements entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders; provided, that no such agreement shall (i) change the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any date for the payment of any principal of or interest on, any Loan, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or, except as provided in this Agreement, decrease the rate of interest on any Loan, or the amount of any fees payable to any Lender without the written

consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) change the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender or change or postpone the payment of the Commitment Fees payable to any Lender without the written consent of each Lender, or change the amount of the Total Commitment without the consent of each Lender (except in accordance with Section 5.18), (iii) release or defer the granting or perfecting of a Lien in any Collateral or release any Guarantee or similar undertaking provided by any Person or modify any indemnity provided to the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender; provided, the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to release any Collateral or any Guarantee which a Borrower is permitted to sell or transfer or otherwise release under the terms of this Agreement or any Loan Document without notice to or any further action or consent of the Lenders; (iv) amend or modify the provisions of this Section 13.7, Section 13.3(a), Section 4.6(b), Section 12.1(c), Section 10.1(q), or Section 11.6(a), the definition of the “Required Lenders” without the written consent of each Lender or (v) amend or modify the provisions of Section 5.20 or the definition of “Defaulting Lender” without the written consent of each Lender; and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify, waive or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or the Swing Line Bank hereunder without the written consent of the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or the Swing Line Bank, respectively. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent may execute and deliver to any Borrower releases of chattel paper sold to any provider of Permitted New Vehicle Floor Plan Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement executed in connection therewith between the Agent and any such provider. Each Lender and each holder of any Note shall be bound by any modification or amendment authorized by this Section 13.7 regardless of whether its Note shall be marked to make reference thereto, and any consent by any Lender or holder of a Note pursuant to this Section 13.7 shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note from it, whether or not such Note shall be so marked. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, the principal amount of any Loan made by such Defaulting Lender may not be reduced (other than by payment) and the maturity of any Loan made by such Defaulting Lender may not be extended, in each case, without the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Section 13.8 Interest. Each provision in this Agreement and each other Loan Document is expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount contracted for, charged, paid, or otherwise agreed to be paid, or received to the Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned under this Agreement or any Loan Document or otherwise (including any sums paid as required by any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other Loan Document which is for the use, forbearance or detention of such money), exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, and all amounts owed under this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be held to be subject to reduction to the effect that such amounts so paid or agreed to be paid which are for the use, forbearance or detention of money under this Agreement or such Loan Document shall in no event exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. Anything in this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Borrowers shall ever be required to pay unearned interest on any Note and shall never be required to pay interest on such Note at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and if the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable under this Agreement, such Note and the other Loan Documents would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of such Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement, such Note or Loan Document to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (a) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement, such Note or any Loan Document shall be reduced to the amount allowed under applicable law, and (b) any unearned interest paid by the Borrowers or any interest paid by the Borrowers in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be credited on the principal of such Note (or, if the

principal amount of such Note shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrowers). It is further agreed that, without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by any Lender under the Notes held by it, or under this Agreement, are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender (such Highest Lawful Rate being such Lender’s “Maximum Permissible Rate”), and shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to such Lender (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Loans evidenced by said Notes all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by such Lender in connection therewith. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be computed at such Lender’s Maximum Permissible Rate pursuant to this Section 13.8 and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender computed at such Lender’s Maximum Permissible Rate, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at such Lender’s Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 13.8.

Section 13.9 Severability; Conflicts.

(a) In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

(b) In the event any of the terms and provisions of any other Loan Document are inconsistent with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement, the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement shall prevail.

Section 13.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, which may be delivered in original, electronic or facsimile form, and each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 13.11.

Section 13.11 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower, the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein except as provided in Section 13.3(a).

Section 13.12 Further Assurances. Each Borrower shall make, execute or endorse, and acknowledge and deliver or file or cause the same to be done, all such vouchers, invoices, notices, certifications and additional agreements, undertakings, transfers, assignments, financing statements or other assurances, and take any and all such other action, as the Agent or the Floor Plan Agent may, from time to time, deem reasonably necessary or proper in connection with any of the Loan Documents, the Obligations of the Borrowers thereunder or for better assuring and confirming unto the Lenders all or any part of the security for any of such Obligations.

Section 13.13 Subsidiary Solvency Savings Clause. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges the receipt and acceptance of valuable consideration as of the Closing Date and thereafter in connection with this

Agreement; and each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that the direct benefits and enrichment it derives from being a party to this Agreement constitute a reasonably equivalent value to it in exchange for the liability it has incurred pursuant to this Agreement. Further, each of the Borrowers acknowledge the interdependence by and among the other Borrowers in successfully carrying out their business operations. Each of the Borrowers represents that it is solvent prior to entering into this Agreement and that the transactions completed hereby will not render it insolvent; provided, in the event that the Indebtedness incurred by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby would constitute a “fraudulent transfer” under Section 548 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or pursuant to any applicable state law governing “fraudulent transfers” because such Borrower is deemed to have become insolvent as a result of incurring such Indebtedness, then, in such event, the liability of any such Borrower hereunder shall automatically be deemed for all purposes to be equal to one dollar less than that amount of Indebtedness which would not render such Borrower insolvent.

Section 13.14 Joint and Several Liability and Related Matters; Keepwell.

(a) Each of Floor Plan Borrowers other than the Company authorizes the Company with full power and authority as attorney-in-fact, to execute and deliver Requests for Borrowings, requests for issuance of Letters of Credit and each other instrument, certificate and report to be delivered by any Floor Plan Borrower to the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any Loan Document. Each of the Floor Plan Borrowers agrees that it shall be bound by any action taken by the Company on its behalf pursuant to such appointment.

(b) The obligations of each of the Ford Borrowers under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be joint and several only with all other Ford Borrowers and the liability of each of the Ford Borrowers shall be limited to an amount equal to the Ford Borrower Liability Amount and the Collateral of all Ford Borrowers granted or pledged to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the Obligations shall secure only that portion of the Obligations attributable to all of the Ford Borrowers as hereinabove provided. The obligations of each of the GM Borrowers under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be joint and several with all the Borrowers and (except as provided in the GM Borrower Guaranty executed by each of the GM Borrowers) the liability of each of the GM Borrowers shall be limited to an amount equal to the GM Borrower Liability Amount and the Collateral of all GM Borrowers granted or pledged to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the Obligations shall secure only that portion of the Obligations attributable to all of the GM Borrowers as hereinabove provided. Subject to Section 13.13, the Obligations of all other Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or otherwise are joint and several and not limited in any way whatsoever.

(c) Except as herein provided, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is the intent of the parties that each Borrower be primarily liable for the Obligations as a joint and several obligor. It is the intention of the parties that, except as herein provided, with respect to liability of any Borrower hereunder arising solely by reason of its being jointly and severally liable for Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations and other extensions of credit taken by other Borrowers, the obligations of such Borrower shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement, any Note or any Loan Document as to any other Borrower;

(ii) the failure of any Lender or any holder of any Note:

(A) to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower or any other Person (including any surety) under the provisions of this Agreement, such Note or otherwise, or

(B) to exercise any right or remedy against any surety of, or Collateral securing, any obligations;

(iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligations;

(iv) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations with respect to any other Borrower for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Borrower hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense (other than the defense of payment in full of the Obligations) or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations with respect to any other Borrower;

(v) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to departure from, any guaranty, held by any Lender or any holder of the Notes securing any of the Obligations; or

(vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense (other than the defense of payment in full of the Obligations) available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any other Borrower, any surety or any guarantor.

(d) Each Borrower agrees that its liability hereunder and its liability under any of the Loan Documents shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must be restored by any Lender or any holder of any Note, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower as though such payment had not been made.

(e) Each Borrower hereby expressly waives: (i) notice of the Lenders’ acceptance of this Agreement; (ii) notice of the existence or creation or non-payment of all or any of the Obligations other than notices expressly provided for in this Agreement; (iii) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, acceleration and the notice of intent to accelerate and all other notices whatsoever other than notices expressly provided for in this Agreement; and (iv) all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the Obligations or any part thereof, any obligation hereunder, or any security for or Guarantee of any of the foregoing, subject, however, in the case of Collateral in the possession of the Agent or a Lender to such Person’s duty to use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of such Collateral.

(f) No delay on any of the Lenders’ part in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by any of the Lenders of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No action of any of the Lenders permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair any such Lenders’ rights or any Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(g) Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to each of the Lenders that it now has and will continue to have independent means of obtaining information concerning the Borrowers’ affairs, financial condition and business. The Lenders shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Borrower with any credit or other information concerning the Borrowers’ affairs, financial condition or business which may come into the Lenders’ possession.

(h) Each Qualified ECP Borrower hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds and other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Borrower to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Indirect Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Borrower shall only be liable under this Section 13.14(h) for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 13.14, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Borrower under this Section shall remain in full force and effect so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect or any Obligations shall be unpaid and until the Commitments of all the Lenders shall expire or terminate, until no Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding and until all Drafting Agreements are terminated. Each Qualified ECP Borrower intends that this Section 13.14(h) constitute, and this Section 13.14(h) shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Borrower for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(a) the Company shall pay all accrued and unpaid commitment fees outstanding under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement for the account of each “lender” under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement;

(b) each Letter of Credit outstanding under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement shall be deemed to have been issued under this Agreement without further consideration or any fees under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement or this Agreement;

The Obligations of the Company hereunder are in restatement, amendment, renewal and extension of the obligations and indebtedness of the Company under the Prior Agreements.

Section 13.17 Exiting Lenders. Capital One, N.A., as a “Lender” under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement (the “Exiting Lender”), hereby sells, assigns, transfers and conveys to the Lenders hereto, and each of the Lenders hereto hereby purchases and accepts, so much of the aggregate commitments under, and loans outstanding under, the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement such that, after giving effect to this Agreement (a) the Exiting Lender shall (i) be paid in full for all amounts owing under the Prior Agreement as agreed and calculated by the Exiting Lender and the Agent in accordance with the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement, (ii) cease to be a “Lender” under the Ninth Amended and Restated

The foregoing assignments, transfers and conveyances are without recourse to the Exiting Lenders and without any warranties whatsoever by the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Bank or the Exiting Lender as to title, enforceability, collectability, documentation or freedom from liens or encumbrances, in whole or in part, other than the warranty of the Exiting Lender that it has not previously sold, transferred, conveyed or encumbered such interests. The assignee Lenders and the Agent shall make all appropriate adjustments in payments under the Ninth Amended and Restated Agreement, the “Notes” and the other “Loan Documents” thereunder for periods prior to the adjustment date among themselves. The Exiting Lender is executing this Agreement for the sole purpose of evidencing its agreement to this Section 13.17 only and for no other purpose.

Section 13.18 FINAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES HERETO), THE NOTES, THE AGENT’S LETTER, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT’S LETTER AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONSTITUTE A “LOAN AGREEMENT” AS DEFINED IN SECTION 26.02(a) OF THE TEXAS BUSINESS AND COMMERCE CODE, AND REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 13.19 Confidentiality. In the event that any of the Borrowers provides to the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent or any Lender, written confidential information belonging to any of the Borrowers that is denominated in writing as “confidential,” the Agent, the Floor Plan Agent, and the Lenders shall thereafter maintain such information in confidence in accordance with the standards of care and diligence that each utilizes in maintaining its own confidential information, including without limitation, non-disclosure of such information to any of such Agent’s, Floor Plan Agent’s or Lender’s Affiliates who may be competitors of any of the Borrowers in the business of acquiring and/or consolidating automotive dealerships.

THE LENDERS, THE AGENT, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT AND EACH OF THE BORROWERS AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF ANY OF THEM. NEITHER THE LENDERS, THE AGENT, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT NOR ANY OF THE BORROWERS SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE, BY COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHERWISE, ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. THESE PROVISIONS SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MODIFIED IN ANY RESPECT OR RELINQUISHED BY THE LENDERS, THE AGENT, THE FLOOR PLAN AGENT OR ANY OF THE BORROWERS EXCEPT BY A WRITTEN INSTRUMENT EXECUTED BY ALL OF THEM.

Section 13.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Section 13.22 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking

procedures the Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Agent’s principal New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 5.13, such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the relevant Borrowers.
