     The notes will represent obligations of the trust secured by the assets of the trust. Each class of notes with a lower alphabetical designation will be subordinated to each other class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation (i.e., A is higher than B and B is higher than C). The notes will bear interest at the rates set forth above and calculated in the manner described below under “Interest Accrual”.

The Certificates

   The trust will issue the CarMax Auto Owner Trust              certificates to CarMax Funding. The certificates are not being offered by this prospectus supplement. The certificates will not bear interest and all payments in respect of the certificates will be subordinated to payments on the notes.

 

Servicer

 

CarMax Auto will sell the receivables and certain related property to CarMax Funding and will service the receivables on behalf of the trust. CarMax Auto’s principal executive offices are located at 4900 Cox Road, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, and its telephone number is (804) 747-0422.

S-4


Table of Contents

will issue the notes and the certificates and will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to purchase from CarMax Funding a pool of receivables consisting of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto. The trust will rely upon collections on the receivables and the funds on deposit in certain accounts to make payments on the notes. The trust will be solely liable for the payment of the notes.

 

The notes will be obligations of the trust secured by the assets of the trust. The notes will not represent interests in or obligations of CarMax, Inc., CarMax Auto, CarMax Funding or any other person or entity other than the trust.

 

Investment in the Notes

 

There are material risks associated with an investment in the notes.

 

For a discussion of the risks that should be considered in deciding whether to purchase any of the notes, see “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement and in the prospectus.

 

Statistical Calculation Date

 

The statistical calculation date is the close of business on                 . This is the date used in preparing the statistical information presented in this prospectus supplement. As of this date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables was $                . The statistical information presented in this prospectus supplement does not reflect the inclusion of additional receivables in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $                , which will have been originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto before the cutoff date.

 

Cutoff Date

 

The cutoff date will be close of business on             .

 

Closing Date

 

The closing date will be on or about             .

 

Distribution Dates

 

The 15th day of each month (or, if the 15th day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day). The first distribution date will be             .

 

Record Dates

 

On each distribution date, the trust will make payments to the holders of the notes as of the related record date. The record dates for the notes will be the business day preceding each distribution date or, if the notes have been issued in fully registered, certificated form, the last business day of the preceding month.

 

Minimum Denominations

 

The notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

 

Interest Rates

 

The trust will pay interest on each class of notes at the rate specified above under “The Notes”.

 

Interest Accrual

 

Class A-1 Notes

 

“Actual/360”, accrued from and including the prior distribution date (or from and including the closing date, in the case of the first distribution date) to but excluding the current distribution date.

 

Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class A-4 Notes, Class B Notes and Class C Notes

 

“30/360”, accrued from and including the 15th day of the prior month (or from and including the closing date, in the case of the first distribution date) to but excluding the 15th day of the current month (assuming each month has 30 days).

 

This means that, if there are no outstanding shortfalls in the payment of interest, the interest due on each distribution date will be the product of:

 

  the outstanding principal amount of a class of notes;

 

  the interest rate of that class of notes; and

 

  (i) in the case of the class A-1 notes, the actual number of days in the interest period divided by 360; and

 

  (ii) in the case of the other classes of notes, 30 (or, in the case of the first distribution date, assuming a closing date of             ,     ) divided by 360.

 

S-5


Table of Contents

Interest Payments

 

On each distribution date, interest payments on the class A notes will have the same priority. As described in this prospectus supplement, each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation will be entitled to receive certain payments of principal before interest payments are made on the classes of notes with a lower alphabetical designation. In addition, if the notes are accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, no interest will be payable on a class of notes until all interest on and principal of each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid.

 

For a more detailed description of the payment of interest, see “Description of the Notes—Payments of Interest”.

 

Principal Payments

 

On each distribution date, from the amounts allocated to the holders of the notes to pay principal described in clauses (3) and (7) under “—Priority of Distributions”, the trust will pay principal of the notes in the following order of priority:

 

(1)   to the class A-1 notes until they have been paid in full;

 

(2)   to the other class A notes, sequentially to the class A-2 notes until they have been paid in full, then to the class A-3 notes until they have been paid in full and then to the class A-4 notes until they have been paid in full, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the class A notes to an amount equal to approximately             % of the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period exceeds the overcollateralization target amount for that distribution date;

 

(3)   to the class B notes, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the class B notes to an amount equal to approximately             % of the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period exceeds the overcollateralization target amount for that distribution date; and

 

(4)   to the class C notes, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the class C notes to an amount equal to approximately             % of the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period exceeds the overcollateralization target amount for that distribution date.

 

These general rules are subject, however, to the following exceptions:

 

  If a distribution date is a final scheduled distribution date for one or more classes of notes, all principal payments will be made on that distribution date and any subsequent distribution date first to those classes of notes with that final scheduled distribution date, in order of seniority, until those classes have been paid in full.

 

  In the event of any shortfall in the amount of funds available for principal payments on the notes on any distribution date, no principal payments will be made on a class of notes with a lower alphabetical designation until all principal amounts payable with respect to each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation have been paid in full. Accordingly, any shortfall in the amount of funds available for principal payments on any distribution date will reduce the principal payments first to the class C notes, second to the class B notes and third to the class A notes.

 

  If the notes are accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, principal payments on the notes, together with amounts that would otherwise be payable to the holders of the certificates, will be paid in the following order of priority:

 

S-6


Table of Contents
  (1)   to the holders of the class A-1 notes until the class A-1 notes have been paid in full;

 

  (2)   to the holders of the other class A notes pro rata based upon their respective unpaid principal amounts until the other class A notes have been paid in full;

 

  (3)   to the holders of the class B notes until the class B notes have been paid in full; and

 

  (4)   to the holders of the class C notes until the class C notes have been paid in full.

 

If not paid earlier, all principal and interest with respect to a class of notes will be payable in full on the final scheduled distribution date for that class. The final scheduled distribution dates for the notes are as follows:

 

Note Class


 

Final Scheduled
Distribution Date


A-1

  ________

A-2

  ________

A-3

A-4

For a more detailed description of the payment of principal, see “Description of the Notes—Payments of Principal”, “Application of Available Funds” and “Description of the Indenture—Rights Upon Event of Default”.

 

Priority of Distributions

 

On each distribution date, from collections on the receivables received during the prior monthly collection period and amounts withdrawn from the reserve account, the trust will pay the following amounts in the following order of priority:

 

(1)   the servicing fee for the related collection period plus any overdue servicing fees for one or more prior collection periods plus reimbursement of nonrecoverable advances will be paid to the servicer;

 

(2)   interest on the class A notes will be paid to the holders of that class;

 

(3)   principal of the notes in an amount equal to the amount by which the aggregate principal amount of the class A notes exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period will be paid to the holders of that class;

 

(4)   interest on the class B notes will be paid to the holders of that class;

 

(5)   interest on the class C notes will be paid to the holders of that class;

 

(6)   the amount, if any, necessary to fund the reserve account up to the required amount will be paid to the reserve account;

 

(7)   principal of the notes in an amount equal to the amount by which the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the notes and the overcollateralization target amount for that distribution date, described below under “—Credit Enhancement—Overcollateralization”, exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period less any amounts allocated to pay principal of the notes under clause (3) above will be paid to the noteholders;

 

(8)   if a servicer has replaced CarMax Auto as servicer, any unpaid transition expenses due in respect of a transfer of servicing and any additional servicing fees for the related collection period will be paid to the successor servicer; and

 

(9)  

unless the notes have been accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, any

 

S-7


Table of Contents
 

remaining amounts will be paid to the holders of the certificates.

 

For purposes of these distributions, on any distribution date the principal amount of a class of notes will be calculated as of the preceding distribution date after giving effect to all payments made on such preceding distribution date, or, in the case of the first distribution date, as of the closing date.

 

For a more detailed description of the priority of distributions and the allocation of funds on each distribution date, see “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions”.

 

Credit Enhancement

 

The credit enhancement for the notes generally will include the following:

 

Subordination of the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes

 

The class B notes and the class C notes will be subordinated with respect to each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation. On each distribution date:

 

  no interest will be paid on any such class of notes until all interest due on each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid in full through the related interest period, including, to the extent lawful, interest on overdue interest;

 

  as described herein, no interest will be paid on any such class of notes until certain payments of principal have been made on each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation; and

 

  no principal will be paid on any such class of notes until all principal due on each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid in full.

 

The subordination of the class B notes and the class C notes is intended to decrease the risk of default by the trust with respect to payments due to the more senior classes of notes.

 

Overcollateralization

 

Overcollateralization represents the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the notes. Overcollateralization will be available to absorb losses on the receivables that are not otherwise covered by excess collections on or in respect of the receivables, if any. The initial amount of overcollateralization will be zero. The application of funds as described in clause (7) of “—Priority of Distributions” is designed to create overcollateralization and to increase over time the amount of overcollateralization as of any distribution date to a target amount equal to         % of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period, but not less than $            . This will be effected by paying a greater amount of principal on the notes on the first several distribution dates after the closing date than is paid by obligors on the principal of the receivables during such time.

 

Reserve Account

 

On the closing date, CarMax Auto will establish, in the name of the indenture trustee, a reserve account into which certain excess collections on or in respect of the receivables will be deposited. The reserve account will be initially funded with a deposit of $             made by CarMax Funding on the closing date. On each distribution date, the indenture trustee will deposit in the reserve account, from amounts collected on or in respect of the receivables during the related collection period and not used on that distribution date to make required payments to the servicer or the noteholders, the amount, if any, by which:

 

  the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date exceeds

 

  the amount on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date.

 

Amounts on deposit in the reserve account will be available to pay shortfalls in interest and certain principal payments required to be paid on

 

S-8


Table of Contents

the notes and may be used to reduce the principal amount of a class of notes to zero on or after its related final scheduled distribution date. On each distribution date, the indenture trustee will withdraw funds from the reserve account, up to the amount on deposit in the reserve account, to the extent needed to make the following payments:

 

  to the servicer, the monthly servicing fee for the related collection period plus any overdue monthly servicing fees for one or more prior collection periods plus reimbursement of nonrecoverable advances; and

 

  to the noteholders, monthly interest and the priority principal distributable amount, if any, required to be paid on the notes on that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable to any class of notes for the previous distribution date plus interest on the overdue monthly interest at the interest rate applicable to that class.

 

The amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on any distribution date will equal the lesser of $             and the aggregate principal amount of the notes; provided, that the required amount will be zero if the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period is zero. If the amount on deposit in the reserve account on any distribution date exceeds the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date, after giving effect to all required deposits to and withdrawals from the reserve account on that distribution date, the excess will be paid to the certificateholders. Any amount paid to the certificateholders will no longer be property of the trust.

 

For a more detailed description of the deposits to and withdrawals from the reserve account, see “Description of the Notes—Credit Enhancement—Reserve Account”.

 

Optional Prepayment

 

The servicer has the option to purchase the receivables on any distribution date following the last day of a collection period as of which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables is 10% or less of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the cutoff date. The purchase price will equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, however, that the purchase price must equal or exceed the aggregate principal amount of the notes, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all amounts due to the servicer in respect of its servicing compensation and reimbursement of nonrecoverable advances. The trust will apply the payment of such purchase price to the payment of the notes in full.

 

It is expected that at the time this purchase option becomes available to the servicer only the class A-4 notes, the class B notes and the class C notes will be outstanding.

 

Property of the Trust

 

The property of the trust will include the following:

 

  a pool of simple interest retail installment sale contracts originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto in the ordinary course of business in connection with the sale of new and used motor vehicles;

 

  amounts received on or in respect of the receivables after the cutoff date, including amounts advanced by the servicer;

 

  security interests in the vehicles financed under the receivables;

 

  any proceeds from claims on or refunds of premiums with respect to insurance policies relating to the financed vehicles or the related obligors;

 

  the receivable files;

 

  funds on deposit in a collection account, a note payment account and a reserve account;

 

 

all rights under the receivables purchase agreement, including the right to cause

  all rights under the sale and servicing agreement, including the right to cause CarMax Funding or the servicer, as applicable, to purchase receivables affected materially and adversely by breaches of the representations and warranties of CarMax Funding or the servicer made in the sale and servicing agreement or by breaches of certain servicing covenants of the servicer made in the sale and servicing agreement; and

 

  any and all proceeds relating to the above.

 

Servicing and Servicer Compensation

 

CarMax Auto’s responsibilities as servicer will include, among other things, collection of payments, realization on the receivables and the financed vehicles, selling or otherwise disposing of delinquent or defaulted receivables and monitoring the performance of the receivables. In return for its services, the trust will be required to pay the servicer a servicing fee on each distribution date for the related collection period equal to the product of  1/12 of 1.00% and the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the first day of that collection period (or as of the cutoff date in the case of the first distribution date).

 

For a more detailed description of advances by the servicer, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements and the Trust Agreement—Advances”.

 

Ratings

 

It is a condition to the issuance of the notes that each class of notes shall have been assigned at least the following ratings:

 

Note
Class


 

Rating


 

Standard & Poor’s


 

Moody’s


A-1

  A-1+   Prime-1

A-2

  AAA   Aaa

A-3

  AAA   Aaa

A-4

  AAA   Aaa

B

  A   A2

C

  BBB   Baa3

 

A rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell the related notes, inasmuch as a rating does not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. The ratings of the notes address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on the notes according to their terms. A rating agency rating the notes may lower or withdraw its rating in the future, in its discretion, as to any class of notes.

 

Tax Status

 

Opinions of Counsel

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, for federal income tax purposes, the notes will be characterized as debt and the trust will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation.

 

Investor Representations

 

If you purchase notes, you agree by your purchase that you will treat the notes as indebtedness for tax purposes.

 

If you are considering purchasing notes, see “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in this prospectus supplement and in the prospectus for more details.

 

ERISA Considerations

 

The notes are generally eligible for purchase by or with plan assets of employee benefit and other benefit plans and individual retirement accounts, subject to the considerations discussed under “ERISA Considerations” in this prospectus supplement and the prospectus. Each employee benefit or other benefit plan, and each person investing on behalf of or with plan assets of such

a plan, will be deemed to make certain representations.

 

Eligibility for Purchase by Money Market Funds

 

The class A-1 notes will be structured to be eligible securities for purchase by money market funds under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. A money market fund should consult its legal advisers regarding the eligibility of the class A-1 notes under Rule 2a-7 and whether an investment in such notes satisfies the fund’s investment policies and objectives.

Risk Factors

 

You should consider the following risk factors (and the factors under “Risk Factors” in the prospectus) in deciding whether to purchase any of the notes. The following risk factors and those in the prospectus describe the principal risks of an investment in the notes.

 

You may suffer delays in payment or losses as a result of the manner in which principal of the notes is paid

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

No principal will be paid on any class of notes other than the class A-1 notes until the class A-1 notes have been paid in full. After the class A-1 notes have been paid in full, the aggregate principal distributable amount for any distribution date will be allocated among the remaining classes of class A notes, the class B notes and the class C notes in a manner intended to maintain the credit support, not including amounts on deposit in the reserve account, for each such class, after giving effect to such allocation, in an amount approximately equal to the following percentages of the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period exceeds the overcollateralization target amount for that distribution date:             % for the remaining class A notes,             % for the class B notes and             % for the class C notes. In addition, the class A-2 notes, the class A-3 notes and the class A-4 notes feature sequential payment of principal. This means that no principal will be paid on the class A-3 notes until the class A-2 notes have been paid in full and no principal will be paid on the class A-4 notes until the class A-3 notes have been paid in full.

     A portion of the principal of the class B notes and the class C notes may be paid before the principal amount of the class A-2 notes, the class A-3 notes and the class A-4 notes has been paid in full. Holders of the class B notes and the class C notes will not be required to return any amounts paid to them as principal even if an event of default under the indenture occurs and the indenture trustee sells the assets of the trust at a price insufficient to pay the principal amount of each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation. If this occurs, holders of the classes of notes with a higher alphabetical designation could suffer a loss on their investment.
     See “Description of the Notes—Payments of Principal” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of principal payments.

Some notes have greater risk because they are subordinate to other classes of notes

  

 

 

 

 

You may suffer a loss on your investment if payments of interest on or principal of your notes are subordinated to one or more other classes of notes. Both interest payments and principal payments on

 

S-12


Table of Contents
     the notes will be subordinated to the servicing fee due to the servicer and reimbursement of nonrecoverable advances.
     No interest will be paid on any distribution date to a class of notes until all interest due on that distribution date on each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid in full. Under the limited circumstances described under “Description of the Notes—Payments of Interest”, a class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation will be entitled to receive specified payments of principal before payments of interest are made on the classes of notes with a lower alphabetical designation. In addition, if the notes are accelerated following the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, no interest will be payable on a class of notes until all interest on and principal of each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation have been paid in full.
     No principal payments will be made on the class B notes on any distribution date until the class A-1 notes have been paid in full and the required payments of principal have been made on the other class A notes on that distribution date. No principal payments will be made on the class C notes on any distribution date until the class A-1 notes have been paid in full and the required payments of principal have been made on the other class A notes and the class B notes on that distribution date. In addition, if the notes have been accelerated following the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture, no principal payments or amounts that would otherwise be payable to the holders of the certificates will be paid to the holders of a class of notes with a lower alphabetical designation until each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid in full.
     This subordination could result in delays or reductions in the payment of principal of and interest on the classes of notes with lower alphabetical designations, and investors in those notes may suffer a loss on their investment.
     See “Description of the Notes—Payments of Interest”, “—Payments of Principal” and “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of interest and principal payments.

Table of Contents

Payment priorities increase the risk of loss or delay in payment on certain class A notes

  

 

 

 

 

Because the principal of each class of class A notes generally will be paid sequentially, classes of class A notes that have higher sequential numerical class designations will be outstanding longer and therefore will be exposed to the risk of losses on the receivables during periods after other classes of class A notes have been receiving most or all amounts payable on their notes, and after which a disproportionate amount of credit enhancement may have been applied and not replenished.

     If an event of default under the indenture has occurred and the notes have been accelerated, principal payments and amounts that would otherwise be payable to the holders of the certificates will be paid first to the class A-1 notes until they have been paid in full, then pro rata to the other class A notes based upon the principal amount of each class, then to the class B notes and then to the class C notes. As a result, in relation to the class A-1 notes, the yields of the class A-2 notes, the class A-3 notes and the class A-4 notes will be relatively more sensitive to losses on the receivables and the timing of such losses. If the actual rate and amount of losses exceeds historical levels, and if the available overcollateralization and amounts in the reserve account are insufficient to cover the resulting shortfalls, the yield to maturity on your notes may be lower than anticipated and you could suffer a loss.
     See “Description of the Notes—Payments of Interest” and “—Payments of Principal” in this prospectus supplement.

The amount on deposit in the reserve account may not be sufficient to assure payment of your notes

  

 

 

 

 

The amount on deposit in the reserve account will be used to fund the payment of monthly interest and certain distributions of principal to noteholders on each distribution date if payments received on or in respect of the receivables, including amounts recovered in connection with the repossession and sale of financed vehicles that secure defaulted receivables, are not sufficient to make that payment. There can be no assurances, however, that the amount on deposit in the reserve account will be sufficient on any distribution date to assure payment of your notes. If the receivables experience higher losses than were projected in determining the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account, the amount on deposit in the reserve account may be less than projected. If receivable payments, including any amounts allocable to overcollateralization, and the amount on deposit in the reserve account are not sufficient on any distribution date to pay in full the monthly interest and certain distributions of principal due on that distribution date, you will experience payment delays with respect to your notes. If the amount of that insufficiency is not offset by excess collections on or in

     respect of the receivables on subsequent distribution dates, you will experience losses with respect to your notes.
     See “Description of the Notes—Credit Enhancement” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the reserve account.
     See “The Receivables Pool—Weighted Average Lives of the Notes” in this prospectus supplement and “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in the prospectus for a further discussion of receivable prepayments.

Prepayments, potential losses and changes in the order of priority of payments following an indenture event of default could adversely affect your investment

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If an event of default under the indenture has occurred and the notes have been accelerated, the trust will not make any distributions of principal or interest on a class of notes until all interest on and principal of each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid. If the maturity dates of the notes are accelerated following the occurrence of an event of default and the indenture trustee determines that the future collections on the receivables would be insufficient to make payments on the notes, the indenture trustee, acting at the direction of the holders of 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the controlling class (which will be the class A notes for so long as any of such notes are outstanding, and upon payment in full of such notes, the class B notes for so long as any of such notes are outstanding and thereafter the class C notes), may sell the receivables and prepay the notes. Generally, the holders of the notes which are not part of the controlling class will not have any right to direct the indenture trustee or to consent to any action until the holders of the notes of the controlling class have been paid in full. If principal is repaid to you earlier than expected, you may not be able to reinvest the prepaid amount at a rate of return that is equal to or greater than the rate of return on your notes. You also may not be paid the full principal amount of your notes if the assets of the trust are insufficient to pay the full aggregate principal amount of your notes.

     See “Description of the Indenture—Events of Default” and “—Rights Upon Event of Default” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion.

You may suffer losses because you have limited control over actions of the trust and conflicts between classes of notes may occur

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If an event of default under the indenture has occurred, the indenture trustee may, and at the direction of a specified percentage of the controlling class (which will be the class A notes for so long as any of such notes are outstanding, and upon payment in full of such notes, the class B notes for so long as any of such notes are outstanding and thereafter the class C notes) will, take one or more of the actions specified in the indenture relating to the property of the trust. Furthermore, the holders of a majority of the controlling class, or the indenture trustee acting on behalf of the holders of the controlling class, under certain circumstances, has the right to waive events of servicing termination or to terminate the servicer without consideration of the effect such waiver or termination would have on the holders of the other classes of notes. Furthermore, the holders of the class B notes, and upon payment in full of such notes, the holders of the class C notes, will have only limited rights to direct remedies under the indenture and will not have the ability to waive events of servicing termination or to terminate the servicer until each class of notes with a higher alphabetical designation has been paid in full.

     See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Events of Servicing Termination”, “-Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination” and “—Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the rights of the noteholders with respect to events of servicing termination.

Geographic concentration may result in more risk to you

  

 

 

 

The servicer’s records indicate that receivables related to obligors with mailing addresses in the following states constituted more than 10% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the close of business on             :

The Trust

 

Limited Purpose and Limited Assets

 

The Seller formed CarMax Auto Owner Trust             , a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust will not engage in any activity other than:

 

    acquiring, holding and managing the assets of the Trust, including the Receivables, and the proceeds of those assets;

 

    issuing the Notes;

 

    making payments on the Notes; and

 

    engaging in other activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish any of the other purposes listed above or are in any way connected with those activities.

 

If the various protections provided to the Noteholders (as more fully described herein) by the subordination of the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes, the available overcollateralization and by the Reserve Account are insufficient, the Trust would have to rely solely upon the obligors of the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale of the Financed Vehicles which secure Defaulted Receivables to make payments on the Notes. In that event, various factors, such as the Trust not having perfected security interests in the Financed Vehicles in all states, may affect the Servicer’s ability to repossess and sell the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce the proceeds which the Trust can distribute to Noteholders. See “Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables” in the prospectus.

The Receivables

 

The Trust will own a pool of Receivables consisting of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto and secured by security interests in the motor vehicles financed by those contracts. CarMax Auto will sell the Receivables to the Seller on the Closing Date pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller will sell the Receivables to

 

S-17


Table of Contents

the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The property of the Trust will include payments on the Receivables which are made after the Cutoff Date.

 

The information concerning the Receivables presented throughout this prospectus supplement is as of the Statistical Calculation Date. As of the Statistical Calculation Date, the Receivables had an aggregate Principal Balance of $                . The Receivables transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date will have an aggregate Principal Balance of not less than $                 as of the Cutoff Date. The information concerning the Receivables presented throughout this prospectus supplement does not reflect the additional Receivables which will be included in the pool of Receivables transferred to the Trust on the the Closing Date. In addition, some amortization of the Receivables will occur after the Statistical Calculation Date, and some receivables included as of the Statistical Calculation Date may prepay in full or may not meet the eligibility requirements as of the Cutoff Date and may not, therefore, be transferred to the Trust. As a result, the characteristics of the Receivables as of the Cuttoff Date will vary from the characteristics of the Receivables as of the Statistical Calculation Date. We anticipate, however, that the variations will not be material.

 

Criteria Applicable to Selection of Receivables

 

The Receivables were or will be selected from CarMax Auto’s portfolio for inclusion in the pool by several criteria, some of which are set forth in the prospectus under “The Receivables”. The information presented throughout this prospectus supplement pertains to Receivables that satisfied, as of the Statistical Calculation Date, the criteria for transfer to the Trust. Each receivable transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date will satisfy these criteria as of the Cutoff Date. These criteria include the requirement that each Receivable:

 

    is secured by a new or used motor vehicle;

 

    had an original Principal Balance of not more than $             and a remaining Principal Balance of not less than $            ;

 

    had an original term to maturity of not more than     months and not less than      months and a remaining term to maturity of not more than      months and not less than              months;

 

    is a simple interest contract;

 

    has a Contract Rate of at least             % and not more than             %;

 

    provides for level scheduled monthly payments that fully amortize the amount financed over its original term to maturity (except that the period between the contract date and the first payment date may be less than or greater than one month and except for the first and last payments, which may be minimally different from the level payments);

 

    relates to an obligor who has made at least one payment;

 

    was not delinquent by more than      days;

 

    is not secured by a Financed Vehicle that has been repossessed;

 

    does not relate to an obligor who was the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding;

 

    is evidenced by only one original document; and

 

    was not selected using selection procedures believed by CarMax Auto to be adverse to the Noteholders.

Weighted Average Lives of the Notes

 

The following information is given solely to illustrate the effect of prepayments of the Receivables on the weighted average lives of the Notes under the stated assumptions and is not a prediction of the prepayment rate that might actually be experienced by the Receivables.

 

Prepayments on motor vehicle receivables can be measured relative to a prepayment standard or model. The model used in this prospectus supplement, the Absolute Prepayment Model or “ABS”, represents an assumed rate of prepayment each month relative to the original number of receivables in a pool of receivables. ABS further assumes that all of the receivables are the same size and amortize at the same rate and that each receivable in each month of its life will either be paid as scheduled or be prepaid in full. For example, in a pool of receivables originally containing 10,000 receivables, a 1% ABS rate means that 100 receivables prepay each month. ABS does not purport to be an historical description of

prepayment experience or a prediction of the anticipated rate of prepayment of any pool of assets, including the Receivables.

 

The rate of payment of principal of each class of Notes will depend on the rate of payment (including prepayments) of the Principal Balance of the Receivables. For this reason, final distributions in respect of the Notes could occur significantly earlier than their respective Final Scheduled Distribution Dates. The Noteholders will exclusively bear any reinvestment risk associated with early payment of their Notes.

 

The ABS Tables captioned “Percent of Initial Note Principal Amount at Various ABS Percentages” have been prepared on the basis of the following assumed characteristics of the Receivables:

 

    the Receivables prepay in full at the specified constant percentage of ABS monthly;

 

    each scheduled monthly payment on the Receivables is made on the last day of each month and each month has 30 days, beginning in                              ;

 

    payments on the Notes are made on each Distribution Date (and each Distribution Date is assumed to be the fifteenth day of the applicable month);

 

    the initial principal amount of each Class of Notes is as set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement.

 

    the interest rate on the Class A-1 Notes is     %, the interest rate on the Class A-2 Notes is     %, the interest rate on the Class A-3 Notes is     %, the interest rate on the Class A-4 Notes is     %, the interest rate on the Class B Notes is     %, and the interest rate on the Class C Notes is     %.

 

    the Closing Date occurs on                              ;

 

    no defaults or delinquencies occur in the payment of any of the Receivables;

 

    no Receivables are repurchased due to a breach of any representation or warranty or for any other reason;

 

    no Event of Default has occurred;

 

    the balance in the Reserve Account on each Distribution Date is equal to the Required Reserve Account Amount; and

 

    the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables on the earliest Distribution Date on which it is permitted to do so, as described in this prospectus supplement.

 

The ABS Tables indicate the projected weighted average life of each class of Notes and set forth the percent of the initial principal amount of each class of Notes that is projected to be outstanding after each of the Distribution Dates shown at various constant ABS percentages.

 

The ABS Tables also assume that the Receivables have been aggregated into hypothetical pools with all of the Receivables within each such pool having the following characteristics and that the level scheduled monthly payment for each of the pools (which is based on the aggregate Principal Balance of

the Receivables in each pool, Contract Rate and remaining term to maturity) will be such that each pool will be fully amortized by the end of its remaining term to maturity.

The actual characteristics and performance of the Receivables will differ from the assumptions used in constructing the ABS Tables. The assumptions used are hypothetical and have been provided only to give a general sense of how the principal cash flows might behave under varying prepayment scenarios. For example, it is very unlikely that the Receivables will prepay at a constant level of ABS until maturity or that all of the Receivables will prepay at the same level of ABS. Moreover, the diverse terms of Receivables within each of the hypothetical pools could produce slower or faster principal distributions than indicated in the ABS Tables at the various constant percentages of ABS specified, even if the weighted average note rates, weighted average original terms to maturity and weighted average remaining terms to maturity of the Receivables are as assumed. Any difference between such assumptions and the actual characteristics and performance of the Receivables, or actual prepayment experience, will affect the percentages of initial amounts outstanding over time and the weighted average life of each class of Notes.

Table of Contents

The foregoing ABS Tables have been prepared based on the assumptions described above (including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the Receivables which will differ from the actual characteristics and performance thereof) and should be read in conjunction therewith. The weighted average life of a Note is determined by multiplying the amount of each principal payment on the Note by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the Note to the related Distribution Date, adding the results and dividing the sum by the related initial principal amount of the Note.

The average outstanding principal amount during any period equals the average of the monthly average outstanding principal amount of the retail installment sale contracts during that period. The gross charge-offs for any period equal the total principal amount due on all retail installment sale contracts determined to be uncollectible during that period minus the total amount recovered during that period from the repossession and sale of financed vehicles. The recoveries for any period equal the total amount recovered during that period on retail installment sale contracts previously charged off.

Table of Contents

The data presented in the foregoing tables are for illustrative purposes only. Delinquency and credit loss experience may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other factors. We cannot assure you that the delinquency and credit loss information of CarMax Auto, or that of the Trust with respect to the Receivables, in the future will be similar to that set forth above.

 

Delinquency and Credit Loss Trends

 

CarMax Auto believes that the relative stability of the delinquency and credit loss performance of its portfolio over the past             years and              months is attributable to a number of factors, including the following:

 

    consistent credit underwriting, provided by empirically derived credit scoring models which help CarMax Auto Finance quantify credit risk and implement risk adjusted pricing;

 

    consistent collateral quality, achieved through selective vehicle acquisition and a thorough reconditioning process to meet CarMax’s mechanical, electrical and safety standards; and

 

    innovative collection strategies, including the use of behavioral models to manage the collection processes and periodic default risk reviews through risk score updates on outstanding loans.

 

CarMax Auto’s expectations with respect to delinquency and credit loss trends constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to important economic, social, legal and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These factors include, but are not limited to, inflation rates, unemployment rates, changes in consumer debt levels, changes in the market for used vehicles and the enactment of new laws that further regulate the motor vehicle lending industry.

 

Use of Proceeds

 

CarMax Auto will sell the Receivables and certain related property to the Seller, which in turn will transfer the Receivables and related property to the Trust. CarMax Auto or its affiliates may use all or a portion of the net proceeds of such sale to pay their respective debts, including warehouse debt secured by the Receivables prior to the transfer of the Receivables to the Seller, and for general purposes. Any warehouse debt may be owed to one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates or entities for which their affiliates act as administrator and/or provide liquidity lines, so a portion of the proceeds that is used to pay warehouse debt may be paid to the underwriters or their respective affiliates.

 

Computing Your Portion of the Outstanding

Principal Amount of the Notes

 

The Servicer will provide to you in a monthly report a factor which you can use to compute your portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes. See “Pool Factors and Trading Information” in the prospectus.

 

Description of the Notes

 

The Trust will issue the Notes under the Indenture. We will file a copy of the Indenture with the SEC after the Trust issues the Notes. We summarize below the material terms of the Notes. This summary is not a complete description of all the provisions of the Notes. This summary supplements the description of the general terms and provisions of the notes of any trust and the related indenture set forth under “Certain Information Regarding the Securities” and “Description of the Indenture” in the

 

S-31


Table of Contents

prospectus and the description of the Indenture set forth under “Description of the Indenture” in this prospectus supplement. We refer you to those sections.

 

Note Registration

 

The Notes will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. The Notes will initially be issued only in book-entry form. See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Book-Entry Registration” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the book-entry registration system.

 

Payments of Interest

 

Interest on the principal amounts of the Notes will accrue at the respective per annum interest rates for the various classes of Notes and will be payable on each Distribution Date to the Noteholders of record as of the related Record Date.

 

The Notes will bear interest at the following Interest Rates:

 

    in the case of the Class A-1 Notes,     % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class A-2 Notes,     % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class A-3 Notes,     % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class A-4 Notes,     % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class B Notes,     % per annum; and

 

    in the case of the Class C Notes,     % per annum.

 

Calculation of Interest. Interest will accrue and will be calculated on the Notes as follows:

 

    Actual/360. Interest on the Class A-1 Notes will accrue from and including the prior Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the current Distribution Date. The interest payable on the Class A-1 Notes on each Distribution Date will equal the product of:

 

    the principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes as of the preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all principal payments made with respect to the Class A-1 Notes on that preceding Distribution Date;

 

    the Interest Rate applicable to the Class A-1 Notes; and

 

    the actual number of days elapsed during the period from and including the preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the current Distribution Date divided by 360.

 

   

30/360. Interest on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes will accrue from and including the 15th day of the prior calendar month (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the 15th day of the current month (assuming each month has 30 days). The interest payable on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes, the

 

S-32


Table of Contents
 

Class B Notes or the Class C Notes, as applicable, on each Distribution Date will equal the product of:

 

    the principal amount of that class of Notes as of the preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all principal payments made with respect to that class of Notes on that preceding Distribution Date;

 

    the Interest Rate applicable to that class of Notes; and

 

    30 (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, assuming a Closing Date of             ,     ) divided by 360.

 

Unpaid Interest Accrues. Interest accrued as of any Distribution Date but not paid on such Distribution Date will be due on the next Distribution Date, together with interest on such amount at the Interest Rate applicable to that class (to the extent lawful).

 

Priority of Interest Payments. The Trust will pay interest on the Notes on each Distribution Date with Available Funds in accordance with the priority set forth under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions”. Interest payments to holders of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes will have the same priority. If amounts available to make interest payments on a class of Class A Notes are less than the full amount of interest payable on that class of Notes on a Distribution Date, the related Noteholders will receive their ratable share of that amount, based on the aggregate amount of interest due on that date on each class of Class A Notes. Interest payments to the holders of the Class B Notes will be made only after the interest accrued on each class of Class A Notes and the Priority Principal Distribution Amount, if any, have been paid in full. Interest payments to the holders of the Class C Notes will be made only after the interest accrued on each class of Class A Notes and the Class B Notes and the Priority Principal Distribution Amount, if any, have been paid in full.

 

An Event of Default will occur if the full amount of interest due on the Notes of the Controlling Class is not paid within five Business Days of the related Distribution Date. While any of the Class A Notes remain outstanding, the failure to pay interest due on the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes and while any of the Class B Notes remain outstanding, the failure to pay interest due on the Class C Notes, in each case within five Business Days of the related Distribution Date, will not be an Event of Default. See “Description of the Indenture—Rights Upon Event of Default” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Payments of Principal

 

Priority and Amount of Principal Payments. On each Distribution Date, Noteholders will receive principal in an amount generally equal to the excess, if any, of:

 

    the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes as of the close of business on the preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, as of the Closing Date) after giving effect to all payments made on that preceding Distribution Date and the Overcollateralization Target Amount for the current Distribution Date; over

 

    the Pool Balance as of the last day of the related Collection Period.

 

On each Distribution Date, all Available Funds allocated to payments of principal on the Notes as described in “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” will be aggregated and will be paid out of the Note Payment Account in the following amounts and order of priority:

 

S-33


Table of Contents
  (1)   to the Class A-1 Notes until they have been paid in full;

 

  (2)   to the other Class A Notes, sequentially to the Class A-2 Notes until they have been paid in full, then to the Class A-3 Notes until they have been paid in full and then to the Class A-4 Notes until they have been paid in full, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Class A Notes to an amount equal to approximately     % of the amount by which the Pool Balance as of the last day of the related Collection Period exceeds the Overcollateralization Target Amount for that Distribution Date;

 

  (3)   to the Class B Notes, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Class B Notes to an amount equal to approximately     % of the amount by which the Pool Balance as of the last day of the related Collection Period exceeds the Overcollateralization Target Amount for that Distribution Date; and

 

  (4)   to the Class C Notes, the amount required to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Class C Notes to an amount equal to approximately     % of the amount by which the Pool Balance as of the last day of the related Collection Period exceeds the Overcollateralization Target Amount for that Distribution Date.

 

These general rules are subject, however, to the following exceptions:

 

    in no event will the principal paid in respect of a class of Notes exceed the unpaid principal amount of that class of Notes;

 

    if a Distribution Date is a Final Scheduled Distribution Date for one or more classes of Notes, all principal payments will be made on that Distribution Date and any subsequent Distribution Date first to those classes of Notes with that Final Scheduled Distribution Date, in order of seniority, until those classes have been paid in full; and

 

    in the event of any shortfall in the amount of funds available for principal payments on the Notes on any Distribution Date, no principal payments will be made on a class of Notes with a lower alphabetical designation until all principal amounts payable with respect to each class of Notes with a higher alphabetical designation have been paid in full.

 

If the Notes are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trust will pay the funds allocated to the holders of the Notes to pay principal of the Notes, together with amounts that would otherwise be payable to the holders of the Certificates, in the following order of priority:

 

  (1)   to the holders of the Class A-1 Notes until the Class A-1 Notes have been paid in full;

 

  (2)   to the holders of the other Class A Notes pro rata based upon their respective unpaid principal amounts until the other Class A Notes have been paid in full;

 

  (3)   to the holders of the Class B Notes until the Class B Notes have been paid in full; and

 

  (4)   to the holders of the Class C Notes until the Class C Notes have been paid in full.

 

Final Scheduled Distribution Dates. The principal amount of any class of Notes, to the extent not previously paid, will be due on the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for that class. The Final Scheduled Distribution Dates for the Notes are as follows:

 

S-34


Table of Contents
                 for the Class A-1 Notes;

 

                 for the Class A-2 Notes;

 

                 for the Class A-3 Notes;

 

                 for the Class A-4 Notes;

 

                 for the Class B Notes; and

 

                 for the Class C Notes.

 

The date on which each class of Notes is paid in full is expected to be earlier than the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for that class and could be significantly earlier depending upon the rate at which the Principal Balances of the Receivables are paid. See “The Receivables Pool—Weighted Average Lives of the Notes” in this prospectus supplement and “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in the prospectus for a further discussion of Receivable prepayments.

 

Credit Enhancement

 

Subordination. Interest and principal payments on the Notes will be subordinated as follows:

 

    on each Distribution Date, no interest will be paid on the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes until all interest due on the Class A Notes through the related Interest Period, including, to the extent lawful, interest on any overdue interest and the Priority Principal Distributable Amount, if any, have been paid in full;

 

    on each Distribution Date, no interest will be paid on the Class C Notes until all interest due on the Class B Notes through the related Interest Period, including, to the extent lawful, interest on any overdue interest and the Priority Principal Distributable Amount, if any, have been paid in full; and

 

    on each Distribution Date, no principal will be paid on the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes until all principal due on the Class A Notes on that Distribution Date has been paid in full and no principal will be paid on the Class C Notes until all principal due on the Class B Notes on that Distribution Date has been paid in full.

 

The subordination of the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes is intended to decrease the risk of default by the Trust with respect to payments due to the more senior classes of Notes.

 

Overcollateralization. Overcollateralization represents the amount by which the Pool Balance exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Overcollateralization will be available to absorb losses on the Receivables that are not otherwise covered by excess collections on or in respect of the Receivables, if any. The initial amount of overcollateralization will be zero. The application of funds as described in clause (7) of “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” is designed to create overcollateralization and to increase over time the amount of overcollateralization as of any Distribution Date to the Overcollateralization Target Amount equal to     % of the Pool Balance as of the last day of the related Collection Period, but not less than $            . This will be effected by paying a greater amount of principal on the Notes on the first several Distribution Dates after the Closing Date than is paid by obligors on the principal of the Receivables during such time. The amount of this payment on the Notes will be funded primarily from interest collections on the Receivables in excess of the interest

 

S-35


Table of Contents

paid on the Notes and other fees required to be paid by the Trust, but this payment will not be made from funds in the Reserve Account.

 

Reserve Account. The Servicer will establish and maintain with the Indenture Trustee the Reserve Account into which certain excess collections on the Receivables will be deposited and from which amounts may be withdrawn to pay the monthly Servicing Fees and any Unreimbursed Servicer Advances to the Servicer and to make required payments on the Notes.

 

The Seller will deposit the Reserve Account Initial Deposit in the Reserve Account on the Closing Date. On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee will deposit in the Reserve Account, from amounts collected on or in respect of the Receivables during the related Collection Period and not used on that Distribution Date to pay Required Payment Amounts, the amount, if any, by which the Required Reserve Account Amount for that Distribution Date exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date, after giving effect to all required withdrawals from the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date. The amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account will be invested by the Servicer in eligible investments acceptable to each Rating Agency. The Reserve Account must be maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account.

 

On each Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the Reserve Account Draw Amount, if any, for the following Distribution Date. If the Reserve Account Draw Amount for any Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw that amount, up to the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, from the Reserve Account and transfer the amount withdrawn to the Collection Account. If the amount required to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in funds on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, a temporary shortfall in the amounts distributed to the Noteholders could result. In addition, depletion of the Reserve Account ultimately could result in losses on your Notes.

 

If the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Distribution Date exceeds the Required Reserve Account Amount for that Distribution Date, after giving effect to all required deposits to and withdrawals from the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date, that excess will be paid to the Certificateholders. Any amount paid to the Certificateholders will no longer be the property of the Trust. On or after the termination of the Trust, the Certificateholders will be entitled to receive any amounts remaining in the Reserve Account after all required payments to the Servicer and the Noteholders have been made.

 

If any class of notes has not been paid in full on any Distribution Date on or after its Final Scheduled Distribution Date (after giving effect to the distribution of Available Funds on such Distribution Date), the Indenture Trustee will distribute to the holders of that class of Notes, from amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account, an amount equal to the lesser of the funds on deposit in the Reserve Account and the outstanding principal amount of that class of Notes. After the payment in full, or the provision for such payment, of all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and the principal amount of the Notes, and the payment in full of all amounts due to the Servicer, any funds remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account will be paid to the Certificateholders.

 

Certificates. The Certificates will represent undivided interests in the Trust and will be issued pursuant to the Trust Agreement. The Certificates are not being offered hereby, and the Certificates, representing 100% of the equity in the Trust, will initially be held by the Seller, who may thereafter sell the Certificates. The Certificates will not bear interest. The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions will be subordinated to the rights of the Noteholders to receive all amounts payable to them as distributions as described under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions”.

 

S-36


Table of Contents

Optional Prepayment

 

In order to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted, at its option, to purchase all remaining Receivables from the Trust on any Distribution Date if the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection Period was 10% or less of the initial Pool Balance. The exercise of this right will effect the early retirement of the Notes. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Optional Purchase of Receivables” for a further discussion of this option.

 

Controlling Class

 

So long as the Class A Notes are outstanding, the Class A Notes will be the Controlling Class. As a result, holders of the Class A Notes generally will vote together as a single class under the Indenture. Upon payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes will be the Controlling Class, and upon payment in full of the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes will be the Controlling Class.

 

The Indenture Trustee

 

             will act as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee is a             . The principal corporate trust office of the Indenture Trustee is located at             . The Indenture Trustee will have various rights and duties with respect to the Notes. See “Description of the Indenture” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of the Indenture” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the rights and duties of the Indenture Trustee. CarMax Auto, the Seller and their respective affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relations with the Indenture Trustee and its affiliates.

 

Application of Available Funds

 

Sources of Funds for Distributions

 

The funds available to the Trust to make payments on the Notes on each Distribution Date will come from the following sources:

 

    collections received on the Receivables during the related Collection Period;

 

    net recoveries received during the related Collection Period on Receivables that were charged off as losses in prior months;

 

    Simple Interest Advances made by the Servicer for the related Collection Period;

 

    investment earnings on funds on deposit in the Collection Account in respect of the related Collection Period;

 

    proceeds of repurchases of Receivables by the Seller or purchases of Receivables by the Servicer because of certain breaches of representations or covenants; and

 

    funds, if any, withdrawn from the Reserve Account for that Distribution Date.

 

The calculation of the funds available to make payments on the Notes is set forth in the definition of Available Funds under “Glossary of Terms”. We refer you to that definition.

Priority of Distributions

 

On each Distribution Date, the Trust will apply the Available Funds for that Distribution Date in the following amounts and order of priority:

Servicing the Receivables

 

The Servicer may, in its sole discretion but consistent with its normal practices and procedures, extend the payment schedule applicable to any Receivable for credit-related reasons; provided, however, that if the extension of a payment schedule causes a Receivable to remain outstanding after the Collection Period preceding the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for the Class C Notes, the Servicer will agree under the Sale and Servicing Agreement to purchase that Receivable for an amount equal to the Purchase Amount as of the last day of the Collection Period which includes the 30th day after the date of discovery by or notice to the Servicer of such extension. The purchase obligation of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement will constitute the sole remedy available to the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Owner Trustee for any extension of a payment schedule that causes a Receivable to remain outstanding after the Collection Period preceding the last Final Scheduled Distribution Date.

 

Accounts

 

In addition to the accounts referred to under “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Accounts” in the prospectus, the Servicer will establish:

 

    the Note Payment Account for the benefit of the Noteholders; and

 

    the Reserve Account for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Servicer.

 

Advances

 

The Servicer, at its option, may make Simple Interest Advances on each Distribution Date to the extent that the Servicer determines that such advances will be recoverable. The Servicer will recover Simple Interest Advances from subsequent payments by or on behalf of the respective obligor or, upon the Servicer’s determination that such advance is an Unreimbursed Servicer Advance, from any Available Collections as described in clause (1) under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions”.

 

Servicing Compensation and Expenses

 

The Servicer will be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee on each Distribution Date. The Servicing Fee, together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from the prior Distribution Date, will be payable on each Distribution Date. The Servicing Fee will be paid only to the extent of the funds deposited into the Collection Account with respect to the Collection Period relating to such Distribution Date, plus funds, if any, deposited into the Collection Account from the Reserve Account. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Servicing Compensation and Expenses” in the prospectus.

 

Events of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Events of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

The following events will constitute Events of Servicing Termination under the Sale and Servicing Agreement:

 

   

the Servicer shall fail to make any required payment or deposit under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of five Business

 

S-39


Table of Contents

Days following the date that payment or deposit was due or, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Distribution Date or the Business Day preceding a Distribution Date, that Distribution Date or preceding Business Day, as applicable;

 

    the Servicer shall fail to deliver to the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee the monthly report relating to the payment of amounts due to Noteholders and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of three Business Days following the date that report was due and the Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date;

 

    the Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in the Sale and Servicing Agreement that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Seller or the Noteholders and that failure shall continue unremedied for 60 days after written notice of that failure shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or to CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class;

 

    any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, other than any representation or warranty relating to a Receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when made and that breach shall continue unremedied for 30 days after written notice of that breach shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or to CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class;

 

    the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the Servicer or its property as specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and

 

    the Servicer shall cease to be eligible to continue as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

If an Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing, the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement have been terminated, the Indenture Trustee, or a successor Servicer appointed by the Indenture Trustee, will succeed to all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements. If, however, a bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer, and no Event of Servicing Termination other than that appointment has occurred and is continuing, that trustee or similar official may have the power to prevent a transfer of servicing. If the Indenture Trustee is unwilling or unable to act as successor Servicer, it may appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Servicer with a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle retail installment sale

 

S-40


Table of Contents

contracts. The Indenture Trustee may arrange for compensation to be paid to the successor Servicer, which in no event may be greater than the servicing compensation paid to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The predecessor Servicer will be obligated to pay the costs and expenses associated with the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer. Such amounts, if not paid by the predecessor Servicer, will be paid out of collections on the Receivables.

 

Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

The holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any Event of Servicing Termination and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account or the Reserve Account in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement. No waiver of a default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement will impair the rights of the Noteholders with respect to any subsequent or other Event of Servicing Termination.

 

Amendment of the Sale and Servicing Agreement

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Amendment” in the prospectus.

 

The Sale and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee but without the consent of the Noteholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Sale and Servicing Agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or in the prospectus or this prospectus supplement or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Sale and Servicing Agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that no such amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder. An amendment will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder if the person requesting the amendment obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the amendment would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of Notes.

 

The Sale and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may:

 

   

increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders, or

 

S-41


Table of Contents
 

change the Interest Rate applicable to any class of Notes or the Required Reserve Account Amount, without the consent of all Noteholders adversely affected by the amendment; or

 

    reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class the consent of the holders of which is required for any amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement without the consent of all Noteholders adversely affected by the amendment.

 

No amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that the amendment will not adversely affect the tax status of the Trust. No amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if the amendment would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.

 

Optional Purchase of Receivables

 

In order to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted, at its option, to purchase all remaining Receivables from the Trust on any Distribution Date if the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection Period was 10% or less of the initial Pool Balance. The price to be paid by the Servicer in connection with the exercise of this option will equal the Purchase Amount of all Receivables; provided, however, that the purchase price paid by the Servicer for the remaining Receivables, together with amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Collection Account, must equal or exceed the Note Balance as of the purchase date, plus accrued but unpaid interest on each class of Notes at the related Interest Rate through the related Interest Period, plus all amounts due to the Servicer in respect of its servicing compensation and Unreimbursed Servicer Advances. The Servicer will notify the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Seller of the Servicer’s intent to exercise this right no later than 30 days prior to the related Distribution Date. The exercise of this right will effect the early retirement of the Notes. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Termination” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the circumstances under which the Servicer may exercise this option.

 

Deposits to the Collection Account

 

The paragraph set forth below supersedes the first paragraph set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Collections” in the prospectus.

 

The Servicer will deposit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables into the Collection Account within two Business Days after such receipt; provided, however, that the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account until the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date following the Collection Period during which such amounts were received at any time that and for so long as:

 

    CarMax Auto is the Servicer;

 

    no Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing; and

 

    each other condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified by the Rating Agencies is satisfied.

 

As of the Closing Date, the Servicer will deposit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables into the Collection Account within two Business Days after such receipt.

 

S-42


Table of Contents

On or before each Distribution Date, the Servicer will notify the Indenture Trustee to withdraw the Reserve Account Draw Amount from the Reserve Account and to deposit this amount into the Collection Account.

 

Servicer Will Provide Information to Indenture Trustee

 

On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer will provide the Indenture Trustee with the information specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Distribution Date or the related Collection Period, including:

 

    the aggregate amount of collections on the Receivables;

 

    the aggregate amount of Defaulted Receivables;

 

    the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables to be repurchased by the Seller or to be purchased by the Servicer;

 

    the Reserve Account Draw Amount, if any;

 

    the Reserve Account Amount;

 

    the aggregate amount to be distributed as principal and interest on the Notes;

 

    the Priority Principal Distributable Amount, the Regular Principal Distributable Amount and the Interest Distributable Amount for each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes;

 

    the Overcollateralization Target Amount for the next Distribution Date;

 

    the Unreimbursed Servicer Advances, if any; and

 

    the Servicing Fee.

 

Description of the Indenture

 

We summarize below some of the important terms of the Indenture. We will file a copy of the Indenture with the SEC after the Trust issues the Notes. This summary is not a complete description of all of the provisions of the Indenture. We refer you to that document. This summary supplements the description of the Indenture set forth under “Description of the Indenture” in the prospectus.

 

Events of Default

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Events of Default” in the prospectus.

 

The following events will constitute “Events of Default” under the Indenture:

 

    a default in the payment of interest on any Note of the Controlling Class for five or more Business Days;

 

    a default in the payment of principal of any Note on the related Final Scheduled Distribution Date;

 

S-43


Table of Contents
    a default in the observance or performance of any other material covenant or agreement of the Trust made in the Indenture and such default not having been cured for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof has been given to the Trust by the Seller or the Indenture Trustee or to the Trust, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class;

 

    any representation or warranty made by the Trust in the Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith having been incorrect in any material respect as of the time made and such incorrectness not having been cured for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof has been given to the Trust by the Seller or the Indenture Trustee or to the Trust, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class; and

 

    certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the Trust or its property as specified in the Indenture.

 

Rights Upon Event of Default

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Rights Upon Event of Default” in the prospectus.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may declare the Notes immediately due and payable. Any declaration of acceleration by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders may be rescinded by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class at any time before a judgment or decree for payment of the amount due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee if the Trust has deposited with the Indenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all principal of and interest on the Notes as if the Event of Default giving rise to the declaration of acceleration had not occurred and all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal of the Notes that has become due solely as a result of the acceleration, have been cured or waived.

 

If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class will, institute proceedings to collect amounts due, exercise remedies as a secured party, including foreclosure or sale of the property of the Trust, or elect to maintain the property of the Trust and continue to apply proceeds from the property of the Trust as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. The Indenture Trustee may not, however, sell the property of the Trust following an Event of Default, other than a default for five or more Business Days in the payment of interest on the Notes or a default in the payment of any required principal payment on the Notes, unless:

 

    the holders of Notes evidencing 100% of the Note Balance consent to the sale;

 

    the proceeds of the sale will be sufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes; or

 

    the Indenture Trustee determines that the property of the Trust would not be sufficient on an ongoing basis to make all payments on the Notes as those payments would have become due had the Notes not been declared due and payable and the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class consent to the sale.

 

S-44


Table of Contents

The Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an independent accountant or investment banking firm as to the sufficiency of the property of the Trust to pay principal of and interest on the Notes on an ongoing basis.

 

If the property of the Trust is sold following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee will apply or cause to be applied the proceeds of that sale first to pay all amounts due to the Indenture Trustee as compensation under the terms of the Indenture and then as Available Funds as described under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions”.

 

If the property of the Trust is sold following an Event of Default and the proceeds of that sale are not sufficient to pay in full the principal balance of and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw available amounts from the Reserve Account in respect of that shortfall.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of the Noteholders if the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes that it will not be adequately indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in complying with that request or direction. The holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class will have the right, subject to certain limitations contained in the Indenture, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee.

 

No holder of a Note will have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, unless:

 

    the holder previously has given to the Indenture Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

 

    the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name as Indenture Trustee;

 

    the holder or holders have offered the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

 

    the Indenture Trustee has for 60 days after such notice, request and offer of indemnity failed to institute the proceeding; and

 

    no direction inconsistent with such request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class.

 

If the Indenture Trustee receives conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each holding Notes evidencing less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion will determine what action, if any, will be taken with respect to such requests.

 

The Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, by accepting the Notes, will covenant that they will not at any time institute against the Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

 

S-45


Table of Contents

Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Owner Trustee, nor any of their respective owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates, successors or assigns will be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Notes or for the agreements of the Trust contained in the Indenture.

 

The right of any Noteholder to receive payments of principal and interest on its Notes when due, or to institute suit for any payments not made when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the holder’s consent.

 

Replacement of Indenture Trustee

 

Pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, the Indenture Trustee may be deemed to have a conflict of interest and be required to resign as trustee for the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes if a default occurs under the Indenture. In these circumstances, the Indenture will provide for a successor trustee to be appointed for one or each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes, in order that there be separate trustees for each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes. So long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class A Notes, only the trustee for the Class A Notes will have the right to exercise remedies under the Indenture (but the holders of the Class B Notes and the holders of the Class C Notes will be entitled to their respective shares of any proceeds of enforcement, subject to the subordination of the Class B Notes and Class C Notes to the Class A Notes as described herein), and only the holders of the Class A Notes will have the right to direct or consent to any action to be taken, including sale of the Receivables, until the Class A Notes are paid in full. Upon repayment of the Class A Notes in full, all rights to exercise remedies under the Indenture will transfer to the trustee for the Class B Notes, and for so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class B Notes, only the trustee for the Class B Notes will have the right to exercise remedies under the Indenture (but the holders of the Class C Notes will be entitled to their respective shares of any proceeds of enforcement, subject to the subordination of the Class C Notes to the Class A Notes and Class B Notes as described herein), and only the holders of the Class B Notes will have the right to direct or consent to any action to be taken, including sale of the Receivables, until the Class B Notes are paid in full. Upon repayment of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes in full, all rights to exercise remedies under the Indenture will transfer to the trustee for the Class C Notes, and for so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class C Notes, only the trustee for the Class C Notes will have the right to exercise remedies under the Indenture, and only the holders of the Class C Notes will have the right to direct or consent to any action to be taken, including sale of the Receivables, until the Class C Notes are paid in full. Any resignation of the original Indenture Trustee as described above with respect to any class of Notes will become effective only upon the appointment of a successor trustee for such class of Notes and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment.

 

Any successor Indenture Trustee must at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and must have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and a long-term debt rating of investment grade by each Rating Agency or must otherwise be acceptable to each Rating Agency. See “Description of the Indenture – Replacement of Indenture Trustee” in the prospectus for more information.

 

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

 

The Indenture will be discharged with respect to the collateral securing the Notes:

 

   

upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation of all the Notes or, if all Notes not delivered to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, upon

 

S-46


Table of Contents
 

deposit with the Indenture Trustee of funds sufficient for the payment in full of the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes;

 

    upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee of an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, which may be internal counsel to CarMax Auto or the Servicer, stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been satisfied; and

 

    upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee of an opinion of counsel, which may be internal counsel to CarMax Auto or the Servicer, to the effect that the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture will not cause any Noteholder to be treated as having sold or exchanged its Notes for purposes of Section 1001 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Modification of Indenture

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture— Modification of Indenture” in the prospectus.

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Indenture Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders, with prior written notice to each Rating Agency, enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding to the covenants of the Trust for the benefit of the Noteholders, curing any ambiguity, correcting or supplementing any provision of the Indenture which may be inconsistent with any other provision of the Indenture or of the prospectus or this prospectus supplement or adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of the Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder.

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Indenture Trustee may, with the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class and with prior written notice to each Rating Agency, enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture consented to by the Insurer on behalf of the Noteholders may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder; and, provided further, that no such supplemental indenture may, without the consent of all Noteholders affected by such supplemental indenture:

 

    change the Final Scheduled Distribution Date or the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note or reduce the principal amount, the interest rate or the redemption price with respect to any Note, change the application of collections on or the proceeds of a sale of the property of the Trust to payment of principal and interest on the Notes or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any interest on any Note is payable;

 

    impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of certain provisions of the Indenture regarding payment;

 

    reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture or the consent of the holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or of certain defaults thereunder and their consequences as provided for in the Indenture;

 

S-47


Table of Contents
    modify or alter the provisions of the Indenture regarding the voting of Notes held by the Trust, any other obligor on the Notes, the Seller or an affiliate of any of them or modify or alter the definition of Note Balance or the definition of Controlling Class;

 

    reduce the percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the holders of which is required to direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the property of the Trust after an Event of Default if the proceeds of the sale or liquidation would be insufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes;

 

    reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class the consent of the holders of which is required to amend the sections of the Indenture which specify the applicable percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class necessary to amend the Indenture or any of the other documents relating to the Trust;

 

    affect the calculation of the amount of interest or principal payable on any Note on any Distribution Date, including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation;

 

    affect the rights of the Noteholders to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes provided in the Indenture; or

 

    permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any of the collateral for the Notes or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in the Indenture, terminate the lien of the Indenture on any such collateral or deprive the holder of any Note of the security afforded by the lien of the Indenture.

 

A supplemental indenture will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder if the person requesting the supplemental indenture obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the supplemental indenture would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of Notes.

 

No supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that the supplemental indenture will not materially adversely affect the taxation of any Note or any Noteholder, or adversely affect the tax status of the Trust.

 

The Trust Agreement

 

On             , the Seller formed the Trust pursuant to the Trust Agreement. The Trust will, concurrently with the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, issue the Certificates pursuant to the Trust Agreement.

 

The Administration Agreement

 

Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, CarMax Auto, as Administrator, will provide notices and perform other obligations of the Trust under the Indenture and the Trust Agreement. The Administrator will be entitled to a monthly administrative fee as compensation for the performance of its obligations under the Administration Agreement, which fee will be paid by the Servicer.

 

S-48


Table of Contents

Material Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, counsel for the Seller and federal tax counsel for the Trust, for federal income tax purposes, the Notes will be characterized as debt and the Trust will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation. See “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus.

 

ERISA Considerations

 

The Notes may, in general, be purchased by, on behalf of or with “plan assets” of Plans. Although we cannot assure you in this regard, the Notes should be treated as “debt” and not as “equity interests” for purposes of the Plan Assets Regulation because the Notes:

 

    are expected to be treated as indebtedness under local law and will, in the opinion of federal tax counsel for the Trust, be treated as debt, rather than equity, for federal income tax purposes (see “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus); and

 

    should not be deemed to have any “substantial equity features”.

 

See “ERISA Considerations” in the prospectus.

 

However, the acquisition and holding of Notes of any class by or on behalf of a Plan could be considered to give rise to a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code if the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, a holder of 50% or more of the Certificates or any of their respective affiliates is or becomes a “party in interest” or a “disqualified person” (as defined in ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, respectively) with respect to such Plan.

 

Depending on the relevant facts and circumstances, certain prohibited transaction exemptions may apply to the purchase or holding of securities—for example, PTCE 96-23, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by an “in-house asset manager”; PTCE 95-60, which exempts certain transactions by insurance company general accounts; PTCE 91-38, which exempts certain transactions by bank collective investment funds; PTCE 90-1, which exempts certain transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts; or PTCE 84-14, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by a “qualified professional asset manager”. Each investor in a Note, by its acceptance of the Note or a beneficial interest therein, will be deemed to represent either that it is not a Plan, and is not investing on behalf of or with plan assets of a Plan, or that its acquisition and holding of the Note satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under one of the foregoing exemptions.

 

Because the Trust, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the underwriters, any provider of credit support or any of their affiliates may receive certain benefits in connection with the sale of the Notes, the purchase of Notes using plan assets over which any of such parties has investment authority may be deemed to be a violation of the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code for which no exemption may be available. Accordingly, any investor considering a purchase of Notes using plan assets should consult with its counsel if the Trust, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, any underwriter, any provider of credit support or any of their affiliates has investment authority with respect to such assets or is an employer maintaining or contributing to the Plan. For additional information regarding treatment of the notes under ERISA, see “ERISA Considerations” in the prospectus.

The Seller has been advised by the underwriters that they propose initially to offer the Notes to the public at the applicable prices set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. After the initial public offering of the Notes, the public offering prices may change.

 

The underwriting discounts and commissions are set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. The selling concessions that the underwriters may allow to certain dealers and the discounts that such dealers may reallow to certain other dealers, expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of each class of Notes shall be as follows:

Until the distribution of the Notes is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the underwriters and certain selling group members to bid for and purchase the Notes. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the prices of the Notes. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the prices of the Notes.

 

The underwriters may make short sales in the Notes in connection with this offering (i.e., they sell more Notes than they are required to purchase in the offering). This type of short sale is commonly referred to as a “naked” short sale because the related underwriters do not have an option to purchase these additional Notes in the offering. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing Notes in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the related

 

S-50


Table of Contents

underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the Notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes.

 

The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on certain underwriters and selling group members. This means that if the underwriters purchase Notes in the open market to reduce the underwriters’ short position or to stabilize the price of such Notes, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from any underwriter or selling group member who sold those Notes as part of the offering.

 

In general, purchases of a Note for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the Note to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a Note to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the Notes.

 

Neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition, neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation that the underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

 

The Notes are new issues of notes and there currently is no secondary market for the Notes. The underwriters for the Notes expect to make a secondary market for the related Notes, but will not be obligated to do so. We cannot assure you that a secondary market for the Notes will develop. If a secondary market for the Notes does develop, it might end at any time or it might not be sufficiently liquid to enable you to resell any of your Notes.

 

The Indenture Trustee may, from time to time, invest the funds in the Collection Account and the Reserve Account in investments acquired from or issued by the underwriters or their affiliates.

 

In the ordinary course of business, the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged and may engage in investment banking and commercial banking transactions with CarMax Auto and the Seller and their affiliates.

 

CarMax Auto and the Seller have jointly and severally agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including civil liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments which the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

The closing of the sale of each class of Notes is conditioned on the closing of the sale of each other class of Notes.

 

Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic prospectus from an underwriter or a request by such investor’s representative within the period during which there is an obligation to deliver a prospectus, the Seller or the underwriter will promptly deliver, without charge, a paper copy of this prospectus supplement and the prospectus.

ANNEX I

 

Global Clearance, Settlement and

Tax Documentation Procedures

 

The globally-offered securities to be issued from time to time will initially be available only in book-entry form. Investors in the globally-offered securities may hold those securities through any of DTC, Clearstream or Euroclear. The globally-offered securities will be tradeable as home market instruments in both the European and United States domestic markets. Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

 

Secondary market trading between investors holding globally-offered securities through Clearstream and Euroclear will be conducted in accordance with their normal rules and operating procedures and in accordance with conventional eurobond practice.

 

Secondary market trading between investors holding globally-offered securities through DTC will be conducted in accordance with the rules and procedures applicable to United States corporate debt obligations.

 

Secondary cross-market trading between Clearstream or Euroclear and organizations participating in DTC that hold offered securities will be effected on a delivery-against-payment basis through the respective depositaries of Clearstream and Euroclear, in such capacity, and as DTC participants.

 

See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Book-Entry Registration” in the prospectus for further information.

 

A beneficial owner of globally-offered certificates holding securities through Clearstream or Euroclear (or through The Depository Trust Company if the holder has an address outside the U.S.) will be subject to the 30% U.S. withholding tax that generally applies to payments of interest (including original issue discount) on registered debt issued by U.S. Persons (or, in the case of a Non-United States Person holding the certificates through a partnership, such other rate as is applicable), unless each clearing system, bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business in the chain of intermediaries between that beneficial owner and the U.S. entity required to withhold tax complies with applicable certification requirements and that beneficial owner takes steps to obtain one of the following exemptions or reduced tax rate:

 

Exemption For Non-United States Persons. Non-United States Persons that are beneficial owners of the notes and are individuals or entities treated as corporations for federal income tax purposes can generally obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding). A Non-United States Person not described in the foregoing sentence that beneficially owns a note may be subject to more complex rules.

 

Exemption For Non-United States Persons With Effectively Connected Income. Non-United States Persons, including non-United States corporations or banks with a United States branch, that are beneficial owners of the notes and for which the related interest income is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States can obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-8ECI (Certificate of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption from Withholdings on Income Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United States).

 

Exemption or Reduced Rate For Non-United States Persons Resident in Treaty Countries. Non-United States Persons that that for federal income tax purposes are individuals or entities treated as

 

S-I-1


Table of Contents

corporations that beneficially own the notes and reside in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States can obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate, depending on the treaty terms, by filing Form W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding). A Non-United States Person not described in the foregoing sentence that beneficially owns a note may be subject to more complex rules.

 

Exemption For United States Persons. United States Persons that are beneficial owners of the notes and certificates can obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-9 (Payer’s Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).

 

United States Federal Income Tax Reporting Procedure. The beneficial owner of a globally-offered security files by submitting the appropriate form to the person through whom he holds, which person would be the clearing agency in the case of persons holding directly on the books of the clearing agency. Form W-8ECI and Form W-8BEN are effective from the date the form is signed through the end of the third succeeding calendar year. If the information on either Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI changes, a new Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, as applicable, must be filed within 30 days of such change. Form W-8BEN and Form W-8ECI may be filed by the beneficial owner of a security or its agent.

 

This summary does not deal with all aspects of United States federal income tax withholding that may be relevant to foreign holders of the globally-offered securities. We suggest that you read “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus for further information and consult your own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of holding or disposing of the globally-offered securities. The information contained in this Annex I is an integral part of the prospectus supplement to which it is attached.

Table of Contents

Investment in the Securities

 

There are material risks associated with an investment in the securities.

 

For a discussion of the risks that should be considered in deciding whether to purchase any of the securities, see “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement and in the prospectus.

 

Statistical Calculation Date

 

The statistical calculation date is the close of business on                 . This is the date used in preparing the statistical information presented in this prospectus supplement. As of this date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables was $                 . The statistical information presented in this prospectus supplement does not reflect the inclusion of additional receivables in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $                 , which will have been originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto before the cutoff date.

 

Cutoff Date

 

The cutoff date will be the close of business on                 .

 

Closing Date

 

The closing date will be on or about                 .

 

Distribution Dates

 

The 15th day of each month (or, if the 15th day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day). The first distribution date will be                 .

 

Record Dates

 

On each distribution date, the trust will make payments to the holders of the securities as of the related record date. The record dates for the securities will be the business day preceding each distribution date or, if the notes or the certificates have been issued in fully registered, certificated form, the last business day of the preceding month.

 

Minimum Denominations

 

The securities will be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.

 

Interest Rates

 

The trust will pay interest on each class of securities at the rate specified above under “Terms of the Securities”.

 

Interest Accrual

 

Class A-1 Notes

 

“Actual/360”, accrued from and including the prior distribution date (or from and including the closing date, in the case of the first distribution date) to but excluding the current distribution date.

 

Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class A-4 Notes and Certificates

 

“30/360”, accrued from and including the 15th day of the prior month (or from and including the closing date, in the case of the first distribution date) to but excluding the 15th day of the current month (assuming each month has 30 days).

 

This means that, if there are no outstanding shortfalls in the payment of interest, the interest due on each distribution date will be the product of:

 

  the outstanding principal balance of a class of notes or the certificates, as the case may be;

 

  the interest rate of that class of notes or the certificates, as the case may be; and

 

  (i) in the case of the class A-1 notes, the actual number of days in the accrual period divided by 360; and

 

 

(ii) in the case of the other classes of notes and the certificates, 30 (or, in the case of the first distribution date,

 

S-6


Table of Contents

assuming a closing date of             ,     ) divided by 360.

 

For a more detailed description of the payment of interest, see “Description of the Notes—Payments of Interest” and “Description of the Certificates—Distributions”.

 

Priority of Distributions

 

On each Distribution Date, from collections on the receivables received during the prior monthly collection period and amounts withdrawn from the reserve account and amounts paid by the insurer, the trust will pay the following amounts in the following order of priority:

 

(1)   Servicing Fee—the monthly servicing fee for the preceding collection period plus any overdue monthly servicing fees for the previous collection period will be paid to the servicer.

 

(2)   Note Interest—monthly interest due on each class of notes for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable on that class of notes for the previous distribution date plus interest on any overdue monthly interest payable on that class of notes at the interest rate applicable to that class will be paid to the holders of that class; provided, however, if the amount available to pay the amounts described in this clause (2) is insufficient, interest will be paid pro rata on all classes of the notes based on the interest payable to each class.

 

(3)   Certificate Interest (Before Acceleration of Notes)—monthly interest due on the certificates for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates for the previous distribution date plus interest on any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates at the interest rate applicable to the certificates will be paid to the certificateholders; provided, however, if the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, this distribution will instead be made under clause (5).

 

(4)   Monthly Note Principal—an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the principal balance of the notes as of the day preceding such distribution date and (b) the amount necessary to reduce the sum of the principal balance of the notes and certificates as of the day preceding such distribution date to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period will be applied to pay principal on the notes; provided, however, that the amount payable for any class of notes on the final scheduled distribution date for that class will be the amount necessary to pay that class in full; and, provided, further, if the amount available to pay the amounts described in this clause (4) is insufficient, monthly note principal will be paid pro rata on all classes of the notes based on the outstanding principal amount of each class. In general, principal on the notes will be applied in the following order of priority:

 

    on the class A-1 notes until they are paid in full;

 

    on the class A-2 notes until they are paid in full;

 

    on the class A-3 notes until they are paid in full; and

 

    on the class A-4 notes until they are paid in full.

 

If the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, monthly note principal will be paid pro rata on all classes of the notes.

 

(5)  

Certificate Interest (After Acceleration of Notes)—if the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, monthly interest due

 

S-7


Table of Contents
 

on the certificates for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates for the previous distribution date plus interest on any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates at the interest rate applicable to the certificates will be paid to the certificateholders.

 

(6)   Monthly Certificate Principal—an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the principal balance of the certificates as of the day preceding such distribution date and (b) the amount necessary to reduce the principal balance of the certificates as of the day preceding such distribution date to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period will be applied to pay principal on the certificates; provided, however, that the amount payable on the final scheduled distribution date for the certificates will be the amount necessary to pay the certificate balance in full.

 

(7)   Insurance Premium—the premium payable under the insurance agreement for that distribution date plus any overdue premiums payable under the insurance agreement for the previous distribution date will be paid to the insurer.

 

(8)   Other Amounts Payable to the Insurer—the aggregate amount of any unreimbursed payments under the insurance policy, to the extent payable to the insurer under the insurance agreement, plus accrued interest on any unreimbursed payments under the insurance policy at the rate provided in the insurance agreement plus any other amounts payable to the insurer will be paid to the insurer.

 

(9)   Additional Note Principal—if the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the notes (after giving effect to all payments of principal on such distribution date) will be paid pro rata on all classes of the notes until they have been paid in full.

 

(10)   Additional Servicing Fee and Transition Costs—if a servicer has replaced CarMax Auto as servicer, any unpaid transition expenses due in respect of a transfer of servicing and any additional servicing fees for the related collection period will be paid to the successor servicer.

 

(11)   Reserve Account Deposit—the amount, if any, necessary to increase the balance of the reserve account up to the required amount will be paid to the reserve account.

 

(12)   CarMax Funding—any amounts remaining after the above distributions will be paid to CarMax Funding.

 

For a more detailed description of the priority of distributions and the allocation of funds on each distribution date, see “Application of Available Funds”.

 

Credit Enhancement

 

The credit enhancement for the securities generally will include the following:

 

Subordination of Principal and Interest on the Certificates

 

Payments of interest on the certificates will be subordinated to payments of interest on the notes, and no payments of principal will be made on the certificates until the notes have been paid in full. If the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, no payments will be made on the certificates until monthly note principal has been paid to the notes; provided, however, that the indenture trustee will continue to withdraw available amounts from the reserve account and to submit claims under the insurance policy in respect of monthly interest on the certificates following an event of default under the indenture.

 

S-8


Table of Contents

Reserve Account

 

On the closing date, CarMax Auto will establish, in the name of the indenture trustee, a reserve account into which certain excess collections on or in respect of the receivables will be deposited and from which amounts may be withdrawn to pay monthly servicing fees to the servicer, to make required payments on the securities and to make required payments to the insurer. The reserve account will be initially funded with a deposit of $              made by CarMax Funding on the closing date. On each distribution date, the indenture trustee will deposit in the reserve account, from amounts collected on or in respect of the receivables during the related collection period and not used on that distribution date to make required payments to the servicer, the securityholders or the insurer, the amount, if any, by which:

 

  the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date exceeds

 

  the amount on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date.

 

Amounts on deposit in the reserve account will be available to pay shortfalls in interest and certain principal payments required to be paid on the notes and may be used to reduce the principal amount of a class of notes to zero on or after its related final scheduled distribution date. On each distribution date, the indenture trustee will withdraw funds from the reserve account, up to the amount on deposit in the reserve account, to the extent needed to make the following payments:

 

  to the servicer, the monthly servicing fee for the related collection period plus any overdue monthly servicing fees for the previous collection periods;

 

  to the noteholders, monthly note interest and monthly note principal for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable on any class of notes for the previous distribution date plus interest on any overdue monthly interest payable on any class of notes at the interest rate applicable to that class;

 

  to the certificateholders, monthly certificate interest and monthly certificate principal for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates for the previous distribution date plus interest on any overdue monthly interest payable on the certificates at the interest rate applicable to the certificates; and

 

  to the insurer, the monthly insurance premium for that distribution date plus any overdue monthly insurance premiums for the previous distribution date plus the aggregate amount of any unreimbursed payments under the insurance policy, to the extent payable to the insurer under the insurance agreement, plus accrued interest on any unreimbursed payments under the insurance policy at the rate provided in the insurance agreement plus any other amounts due payable to the insurer.

 

The amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on any distribution date will equal the greater of $              and an amount equal to             % of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the last day of the related collection period. The amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on any distribution date may be increased if delinquencies or cumulative net losses on the receivables exceed levels specified in the insurance agreement.

 

If the amount on deposit in the reserve account on any distribution date exceeds the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account on that distribution date, after giving effect to all required deposits to and withdrawals from the reserve account on that distribution date, the excess will be paid to CarMax Funding. Any amount paid to CarMax Funding will no longer be property of the trust.

 

For a more detailed description of the deposits to and withdrawals from the reserve account, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Reserve Account”.

Table of Contents

Insurance Policy

 

The insurer will issue a financial guaranty insurance policy for the benefit of the securityholders under which the insurer will unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the payment of monthly interest and monthly principal to the securityholders and the payment of the monthly servicing fee to the servicer. In general, on each distribution date the insurer will pay under the insurance policy the amount, if any, by which:

 

  the monthly servicing fee for the preceding collection period plus any overdue monthly servicing fees for the previous collection period plus the monthly interest and monthly principal for that distribution date payable to the securityholders plus any overdue monthly interest for previous distribution dates payable to the securityholders exceeds

 

  the funds otherwise available to pay those amounts, including amounts available to be withdrawn from the reserve account.

 

All amounts paid under the insurance policy will be deposited in the collection account. The indenture trustee will continue to submit claims under the insurance policy with respect to the notes and the certificates following an event of default under the indenture.

 

For a more detailed description of the insurer and the insurance policy, see “Description of the Insurer” and “Description of the Insurance Policy”.

 

Optional Purchase

 

The servicer has the option to purchase the receivables on any distribution date following the last day of a collection period as of which the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables is 10% or less of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the cutoff date. The purchase price will equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, however, that the purchase price must equal or exceed the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the securities, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all amounts due to the Servicer in respect of its servicing compensation and all amounts due to the insurer. The trust will apply the payment of such purchase price to the payment of the securities in full.

 

It is expected that at the time this purchase option becomes available to the servicer only the class A-4 notes and the certificates will be outstanding.

 

Final Scheduled Distribution Dates

 

The trust is required to pay the entire principal amount of each class of securities, to the extent not previously paid, on the respective final scheduled distribution dates specified above under “Terms of the Securities”.

 

Property of the Trust

 

The property of the trust will include the following:

 

  a pool of simple interest retail installment sale contracts originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto in the ordinary course of business in connection with the sale of new and used motor vehicles;

 

  amounts received on or in respect of the receivables after the cutoff date;

 

  security interests in the vehicles financed under the receivables;

 

  any proceeds from claims on or refunds of premiums with respect to insurance policies relating to the financed vehicles or the related obligors;

 

  the receivable files;

 

  funds on deposit in a collection account, a note payment account, a certificate payment account and a reserve account;

 

  an unconditional and irrevocable insurance policy issued by the insurer guaranteeing the payment of monthly interest and monthly

Table of Contents

principal on the securities and the payment of the monthly servicing fee to the servicer;

 

  all rights under the receivables purchase agreement, including the right to cause CarMax Auto to repurchase from the CarMax Funding receivables affected materially and adversely by breaches of the representations and warranties of CarMax Auto made in the receivables purchase agreement;

 

  all rights under the sale and servicing agreement, including the right to cause CarMax Funding or the servicer, as applicable, to purchase receivables affected materially and adversely by breaches of the representations and warranties of CarMax Funding or the servicer made in the sale and servicing agreement or by breaches of certain servicing covenants of the servicer made in the sale and servicing agreement; and

 

  any and all proceeds relating to the above.

 

Servicing and Servicer Compensation

 

CarMax Auto’s responsibilities as servicer will include, among other things, collection of payments, realization on the receivables and the financed vehicles, selling or otherwise disposing of delinquent or defaulted receivables and monitoring the performance of the receivables. In return for its services, the trust will be required to pay the servicer a servicing fee on each distribution date for the related collection period equal to the product of  1/12 of 1.00% and the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the first day of that collection period (or as of the cutoff date in the case of the first distribution date).

 

Ratings

 

It is a condition to the issuance of the securities that Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s respectively rate:

 

  the class A-1 notes “Prime-1/A-1+”;

 

  the class A-2 notes, class A-3 notes and class A-4 notes “Aaa/AAA”; and

 

  the certificates “Aaa/AAA”.

 

A rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell the related securities, inasmuch as a rating does not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. The ratings of the securities address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on the securities according to their terms. A rating agency rating the securities may lower or withdraw its rating in the future, in its discretion, as to any class of securities.

 

Tax Status

 

Opinions of Counsel

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, for federal income tax purposes, the notes will be characterized as debt and the trust will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation.

 

Investor Representations

 

Notes

 

If you purchase notes, you agree by your purchase that you will treat the notes as indebtedness for tax purposes.

 

Certificates

 

If you purchase certificates, you agree by your purchase that you will treat the trust as a partnership in which the certificateholders are partners for tax purposes.

 

Investment Restrictions

 

Certificates

 

The certificates may not be purchased by persons who are not United States persons for federal income tax purposes.

 

If you are considering purchasing notes or certificates, see “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in this prospectus supplement and in the prospectus for more details.

 

S-11


Table of Contents

ERISA Considerations

 

Notes

 

The notes are generally eligible for purchase by or with plan assets of employee benefit and other benefit plans and individual retirement accounts, subject to the considerations discussed under “ERISA Considerations” in this prospectus supplement and the prospectus. Each employee benefit or other benefit plan, and each person investing on behalf of or with plan assets of such a plan, will be deemed to make certain representations.

 

Certificates

 

The certificates may not be acquired by or with plan assets of an employee benefit or other benefit plan, by an individual retirement account or by a person investing on behalf of or with plan assets of such an arrangement. See “ERISA Considerations” in this prospectus supplement and in the prospectus.

 

Eligibility for Purchase by Money Market Funds

 

The class A-1 notes will be structured to be eligible securities for purchase by money market funds under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. A money market fund should consult its legal advisers regarding the eligibility of the class A-1 notes under Rule 2a-7 and whether an investment in such notes satisfies the fund’s investment policies and objectives.

 

S-12


Table of Contents

Risk Factors

 

You should consider the following risk factors (and the factors under “Risk Factors” in the prospectus) in deciding whether to purchase any of the securities. The following risk factors and those in the prospectus describe the principal risks of an investment in the securities.

 

The insurance policy may not be available to assure payment of your securities  

 

The insurer will unconditionally guarantee the payment of monthly interest and monthly principal to securityholders on each distribution date if payments received on or in respect of the receivables, including amounts recovered in connection with the repossession and sale of financed vehicles that secure defaulted receivables, and the amount on deposit in the reserve account are not sufficient to make that payment. There can be no assurances, however, that the insurer will perform its obligations under the insurance policy. The insurer may not perform its obligations under the insurance policy for a variety of reasons. These reasons include, but are not limited to, the occurrence of an event of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation with respect to the insurer or a dispute as to the basis for a policy claim. If receivable collections and the amount on deposit in the reserve account are not sufficient on any distribution date to pay in full the monthly interest and monthly principal due on that distribution date, and if there is an insurer default under the insurance policy, you will experience payment delays with respect to your securities. If the amount of that insufficiency is not offset by excess receivable payments on subsequent distribution dates, you will experience losses with respect to your securities.

 

See “Description of the Insurer” and “Description of the Insurance Policy” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the insurer and the insurance policy.

 

S-13


Table of Contents
The amount on deposit in the reserve account may not be sufficient to assure payment of your securities   

 

The amount on deposit in the reserve account will be used to fund the payment of monthly interest and monthly principal to securityholders on each distribution date if payments received on or in respect of the receivables, including amounts recovered in connection with the repossession and sale of financed vehicles that secure defaulted receivables, are not sufficient to make that payment. There can be no assurances, however, that the amount on deposit in the reserve account will be sufficient on any distribution date to assure payment of your securities. If the receivables experience higher losses than were projected in determining the amount required to be on deposit in the reserve account, the amount on deposit in the reserve account may be less than projected. If receivable payments and the amount on deposit in the reserve account are not sufficient on any distribution date to pay in full the monthly interest and monthly principal due on that distribution date, and if there is an insurer default under the insurance policy, you will experience payment delays with respect to your securities. If the amount of that insufficiency is not offset by excess collections on or in respect of the receivables on subsequent distribution dates, you will experience losses with respect to your securities.

 

See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Reserve Account” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the reserve account.

Subordination of the certificates to the notes increases the risk of the certificates not receiving full distributions of interest and principal   

 

 

 

Distributions of interest and principal on the certificates will be subordinated in priority of payment to interest and principal due on the notes to the extent described in this prospectus supplement. The certificateholders will not receive any distributions of interest with respect to a distribution date until the full amount of monthly note interest and, if the notes have been accelerated after an event of default under the indenture, monthly note principal due on such distribution date has been paid. Furthermore, the certificateholders will not receive any distributions of principal until the notes have been paid in full.

 

S-14


Table of Contents
Prepayments on your securities may result from an event of default under the indenture   

 

An event of default under the indenture may result in payments on the securities being accelerated. As a result, your securities may be repaid earlier than scheduled, which may require you to reinvest your principal at a lower rate of return.

The failure to make principal payments on the securities will generally not result in an event of default   

 

 

The amount of principal required to be paid to securityholders prior to the final scheduled distribution date for a class of securities generally will be limited to amounts available for those purposes. Therefore, the failure to repay principal of a class of securities generally will not result in the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture or under the trust agreement, as the case may be, until the final scheduled distribution date for the class of securities.

 

See “Description of the Notes—Payments of Principal” in this prospectus supplement for a discussion of the circumstances under which principal will be paid to noteholders.

The insurer will be entitled to exercise the voting and other rights of the securityholders under the indenture prior to an insurer default   

 

 

 

If an insurer default shall not have occurred and be continuing under the insurance policy, the insurer, rather than the securityholders, will be entitled to exercise the voting and other rights of the securityholders under the indenture; provided, however, that the insurer will not be entitled to exercise those rights to amend the indenture in any manner that requires the consent of all noteholders affected by the amendment. The insurer will have no obligation to consider any possible adverse effects on the interests of the securityholders in exercising the rights of the securityholders under the indenture.

 

See “Description of the Indenture—Modification of Indenture” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the circumstances under which the consent of all noteholders is required for an amendment of the indenture.

The insurer may control the declaration and consequences of an event of default under the indenture   

 

 

If an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the indenture and an insurer default shall not have occurred and be continuing under the insurance policy, the insurer, rather than the indenture trustee or the noteholders, will control whether the notes are declared immediately due and payable and which rights or remedies under the indenture are exercised following that declaration. The remedies available under the indenture following an event of default include the sale of all or a portion of the property of the trust and the distribution of the sale proceeds to the securityholders in accordance with the indenture. In addition, if an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the indenture and an insurer default shall not have occurred and be continuing under the insurance policy, the insurer may elect to prepay the notes or, if the notes have been paid in full, the certificates in whole or in part. If the securities are prepaid through the distribution of sale proceeds or directly by the insurer, you may have to reinvest principal earlier than expected at a rate of interest that is less than the rate of interest on the securities.

 

See “Description of the Indenture—Rights Upon Event of Default” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of default remedies under the indenture.

If you own certificates, you may suffer losses because you have limited control over actions of the trust and conflicts between the noteholders and the certificateholders may occur   

 

 

 

If an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the indenture and an insurer default shall have occurred and be continuing under the insurance agreement, the indenture trustee or the noteholders, rather than the certificateholders, will control whether the notes are declared immediately due and payable and which rights or remedies under the indenture are exercised following that declaration. Furthermore, the holders of a majority of the notes, or the indenture trustee acting on behalf of the noteholders, under certain circumstances, has the right to waive events of servicing termination or to terminate the servicer without consideration of the effect such waiver or termination would have on the certificateholders. The certificateholders will not have the ability to waive events of servicing termination or to terminate the servicer until the notes have been paid in full, and the certificateholders may be adversely affected by the determinations made by the holders of a majority of the notes.

The Trust

 

Limited Purpose and Limited Assets

 

The Seller formed CarMax Auto Owner Trust             -    , a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust will not engage in any activity other than:

 

    acquiring, holding and managing the assets of the Trust, including the Receivables, and the proceeds of those assets;

 

    issuing the Securities;

 

    making payments on the Securities; and

 

    engaging in other activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish any of the other purposes listed above or are in any way connected with those activities.

 

If the various protections provided to the Noteholders (as more fully described herein) by the subordination of the Certificates and to the Noteholders and the Certificateholders by the Reserve Account and the Insurance Policy are insufficient, the Trust would have to rely solely upon the obligors of the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale of the Financed Vehicles which secure Defaulted Receivables to make payments on the Securities. In that event, various factors, such as the Trust not having perfected security interests in the Financed Vehicles in all states, may affect the Servicer’s ability to repossess and sell the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce the proceeds which the Trust can distribute to Noteholders and Certificateholders. See “Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables” in the prospectus.

 

The Trust’s principal offices are in care of                 , at             .

The Receivables

 

The Trust will own a pool of Receivables consisting of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto and secured by security interests in

 

S-18


Table of Contents

the motor vehicles financed by those contracts. CarMax Auto will sell the Receivables to the Seller on the Closing Date pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller will sell the Receivables to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The property of the Trust will include payments on the Receivables which are made after the Cutoff Date.

 

The information concerning the Receivables presented throughout this prospectus supplement is as of the Statistical Calculation Date. As of the Statistical Calculation Date, the Receivables had an aggregate Principal Balance of $                    . The Receivables transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date will have an aggregate Principal Balance of not less than $                     as of the Cutoff Date. The information concerning the Receivables presented throughout this prospectus supplement does not reflect the additional Receivables which will be included in the pool of Receivables transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date. In addition, some amortization of the Receivables will occur after the Statistical Calculation Date, and some receivables included as of the Statistical Calculation Date may prepay in full or may not meet the eligibility requirements as of the Cutoff Date and may not, therefore, be transferred to the Trust. As a result, the characteristics of the Receivables as of the Cutoff Date will vary from the characteristics of the Receivables as of the Statistical Calculation Date. We anticipate, however, that the variations will not be material.

 

Criteria Applicable to Selection of Receivables

 

The Receivables were or will be selected from CarMax Auto’s portfolio for inclusion in the pool by several criteria, some of which are set forth in the prospectus under “The Receivables”. The information presented throughout this prospectus supplement pertains to Receivables that satisfied, as of the Statistical Calculation Date, the criteria for transfer to the Trust. Each receivable transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date will satisfy these criteria as of the Cutoff Date. These criteria include the requirement that each Receivable:

 

    is secured by a new or used motor vehicle;

 

    had an original Principal Balance of not more than $              and a remaining Principal Balance of not less than $             ;

 

    had an original term to maturity of not more than      months and not less than      months and a remaining term to maturity of not more than      months and not less than      months;

 

    is a simple interest contract;

 

    has a Contract Rate of at least         % and not more than         %;

 

    provides for level scheduled monthly payments that fully amortize the amount financed over its original term to maturity (except that the period between the contract date and the first payment date may be less than or greater than one month and except for the first and last payments, which may be minimally different from the level payments);

 

    relates to an obligor who has made at least one payment;

 

    was not delinquent by more than      days;

 

    is not secured by a Financed Vehicle that has been repossessed;

 

    does not relate to an obligor who was the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding;

 

S-19


Table of Contents
    is evidenced by only one original document; and

 

    was not selected using selection procedures believed by CarMax Auto to be adverse to the Noteholders or the Certificateholders.

 

Characteristics of the Receivables

 

The following tables set forth information with respect to the Receivables as of the Statistical Calculation Date. While the characteristics of the Receivables transferred to the Trust on the Closing Date will differ somewhat from the information set forth in these tables, we anticipate that the variations will not be material.

Weighted Average Lives of the Securities

 

The following information is given solely to illustrate the effect of prepayments of the Receivables on the weighted average lives of the Securities under the stated assumptions and is not a prediction of the prepayment rate that might actually be experienced by the Receivables.

 

Prepayments on motor vehicle receivables can be measured relative to a prepayment standard or model. The model used in this prospectus supplement, the Absolute Prepayment Model or “ABS”, represents an assumed rate of prepayment each month relative to the original number of receivables in a pool of receivables. ABS further assumes that all of the receivables are the same size and amortize at the same rate and that each receivable in each month of its life will either be paid as scheduled or be prepaid in full. For example, in a pool of receivables originally containing 10,000 receivables, a 1% ABS rate means that 100 receivables prepay each month. ABS does not purport to be an historical description of prepayment experience or a prediction of the anticipated rate of prepayment of any pool of assets, including the Receivables.

 

The rate of payment of principal of each class of Notes and the Certificates will depend on the rate of payment (including prepayments) of the Principal Balance of the Receivables. For this reason, final distributions in respect of the Notes or the Certificates could occur significantly earlier than their respective Final Scheduled Distribution Dates. The Noteholders and the Certificateholders will exclusively bear any reinvestment risk associated with early payment of their Notes and Certificates.

 

The ABS Tables captioned “Percent of Initial Note Principal Amount at Various ABS Percentages” and “Percent of Initial Certificate Balance at Various ABS Percentages” have been prepared on the basis of the following assumed characteristics of the Receivables:

 

    the Receivables prepay in full at the specified constant percentage of ABS monthly;

 

    each scheduled monthly payment on the Receivables is made on the last day of each month and each month has 30 days, beginning in                              ;

 

    payments on the Securities are made on each Distribution Date (and each Distribution Date is assumed to be the fifteenth day of the applicable month);

 

S-24


Table of Contents
    the initial principal amount of each Class of Securities is as set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement;

 

    the Closing Date occurs on                     ,         ;

 

    no defaults or delinquencies occur in the payment of any of the Receivables;

 

    no Receivables are repurchased due to a breach of any representation or warranty or for any other reason;

 

    no Event of Default has occurred;

 

    the balance in the Reserve Account on each Distribution Date is equal to the Required Reserve Account Amount; and

 

    the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables on the earliest Distribution Date on which it is permitted to do so, as described in this prospectus supplement.

 

The ABS Tables indicate the projected weighted average life of each class of Notes and the Certificates and set forth the percent of the initial principal amount of each class of Notes and the percent of the initial Certificate Balance of the Certificates that is projected to be outstanding after each of the Distribution Dates shown at various constant ABS percentages.

 

The ABS Tables also assume that the Receivables have been aggregated into hypothetical pools with all of the Receivables within each such pool having the following characteristics and that the level scheduled monthly payment for each of the pools (which is based on the aggregate Principal Balance of the Receivables in each pool, Contract Rate and remaining term to maturity) will be such that each pool will be fully amortized by the end of its remaining term to maturity.

The actual characteristics and performance of the Receivables will differ from the assumptions used in constructing the ABS Tables. The assumptions used are hypothetical and have been provided only to give a general sense of how the principal cash flows might behave under varying prepayment scenarios. For example, it is very unlikely that the Receivables will prepay at a constant level of ABS until maturity or that all of the Receivables will prepay at the same level of ABS. Moreover, the diverse terms of Receivables within each of the hypothetical pools could produce slower or faster principal distributions than indicated in the ABS Tables at the various constant percentages of ABS specified, even if the weighted average note rates, weighted average original terms to maturity and weighted average remaining terms to maturity of the Receivables are as assumed. Any difference between such assumptions and the actual characteristics and performance of the Receivables, or actual prepayment experience, will affect the percentages of initial amounts outstanding over time and the weighted average life of each class of Notes and the Certificates.

Table of Contents

The foregoing ABS Tables have been prepared based on the assumptions described above (including the assumptions regarding the characteristics and performance of the Receivables which will differ from the actual characteristics and performance thereof) and should be read in conjunction therewith. The weighted average life of a Security is determined by multiplying the amount of each principal payment on the Security by the number of years from the date of the issuance of the Security to the related Distribution Date, adding the results and dividing the sum by the related initial principal amount of the Security.

The average outstanding principal amount during any period equals the average of the monthly average outstanding principal amount of the retail installment sale contracts during that period. The gross charge-offs for any period equal the total principal amount due on all retail installment sale contracts determined to be uncollectible during that period minus the total amount recovered during that period from the repossession and sale of financed vehicles. The recoveries for any period equal the total amount recovered during that period on retail installment sale contracts previously charged off.

Table of Contents

The data presented in the foregoing tables are for illustrative purposes only. Delinquency and credit loss experience may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other factors. We cannot assure you that the delinquency and credit loss information of CarMax Auto, or that of the Trust with respect to the Receivables, in the future will be similar to that set forth above.

 

Delinquency and Credit Loss Trends

 

CarMax Auto believes that the relative stability of the delinquency and credit loss performance of its portfolio over the past             years and              months is attributable to a number of factors, including the following:

 

    consistent credit underwriting, provided by empirically derived credit scoring models which help CarMax Auto Finance quantify credit risk and implement risk adjusted pricing;

 

    consistent collateral quality, achieved through selective vehicle acquisition and a thorough reconditioning process to meet CarMax’s mechanical, electrical and safety standards; and

 

    innovative collection strategies, including the use of behavioral models to manage the collection processes and periodic default risk reviews through risk score updates on outstanding loans.

 

CarMax Auto’s expectations with respect to delinquency and credit loss trends constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to important economic, social, legal and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These factors include, but are not limited to, inflation rates, unemployment rates, changes in consumer debt levels, changes in the market for used vehicles and the enactment of new laws that further regulate the motor vehicle lending industry.

 

Use of Proceeds

 

CarMax Auto will sell the Receivables and certain related property to the Seller, which in turn will transfer the Receivables and related property to the Trust. CarMax Auto or its affiliates may use all or a portion of the net proceeds of such sale to pay their respective debts, including warehouse debt secured by the Receivables prior to the transfer of the Receivables to the Seller, and for general purposes. Any warehouse debt may be owed to one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates or entities for which their affiliates act as administrator and/or provide liquidity lines, so a portion of the proceeds that is used to pay warehouse debt may be paid to the underwriters or their respective affiliates.

 

Computing Your Portion of the Outstanding

Principal Amount of the Securities

 

The Servicer will provide to you in a monthly report a factor which you can use to compute your portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities. See “Pool Factors and Trading Information” in the prospectus.

 

Description of the Notes

 

The Trust will issue the Notes under the Indenture. We will file a copy of the Indenture with the SEC after the Trust issues the Securities. We summarize below the material terms of the Notes. This summary is not a complete description of all the provisions of the Notes. This summary supplements the description of the general terms and provisions of the notes of any trust and the related indenture set forth under “Certain Information Regarding the Securities” and “Description of the Indenture” in the

Table of Contents

prospectus and the description of the Indenture set forth under “Description of the Indenture” in this prospectus supplement. We refer you to those sections.

 

Note Registration

 

The Notes will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. The Notes will initially be issued only in book-entry form. See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Book-Entry Registration” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the book-entry registration system.

 

Payments of Interest

 

Interest on the principal amounts of the Notes will accrue at the respective per annum interest rates for the various classes of Notes and will be payable on each Distribution Date to the Noteholders of record as of the related Record Date.

 

The Notes will bear interest at the following Interest Rates:

 

    in the case of the Class A-1 Notes,         % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class A-2 Notes,         % per annum;

 

    in the case of the Class A-3 Notes,         % per annum; and

 

    in the case of the Class A-4 Notes,         % per annum.

 

Calculation of Interest. Interest will accrue and will be calculated on the Notes as follows:

 

    Actual/360. Interest on the Class A-1 Notes will accrue from and including the prior Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the current Distribution Date. The interest payable on the Class A-1 Notes on each Distribution Date will equal the product of:

 

    the principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes as of the preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all principal payments made with respect to the Class A-1 Notes on that preceding Distribution Date;

 

    the Interest Rate applicable to the Class A-1 Notes; and

 

    the actual number of days elapsed during the period from and including the preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the current Distribution Date divided by 360.

 

    30/360. Interest on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes will accrue from and including the 15th day of the prior calendar month (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to but excluding the 15th day of the current month (assuming each month has 30 days). The interest payable on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes or the Class A-4 Notes, as applicable, on each Distribution Date will equal the product of:

 

S-34


Table of Contents
    the principal amount of that class of Notes as of the preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all principal payments made with respect to that class of Notes on that preceding Distribution Date;

 

    the Interest Rate applicable to that class of Notes; and

 

    30 (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, assuming a Closing Date of                     ,         ,     ) divided by 360.

 

Unpaid Interest Accrues. Interest accrued as of any Distribution Date but not paid on such Distribution Date will be due on the next Distribution Date, together with interest on such amount at the Interest Rate applicable to that class (to the extent lawful).

 

Priority of Interest Payments. The Trust will pay interest on the Notes (without priority among the classes of Notes) on each Distribution Date with Available Funds in accordance with the priority set forth under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” in this prospectus supplement.

 

The Trust Will Pay Interest Pro Rata to Noteholders if it Does Not Have Enough Funds Available to Pay All Interest Due on the Notes. The amount available for interest payments on the Notes could be less than the amount of interest payable on the Notes on any Distribution Date. In that event, the holders of each class of Notes will receive their ratable share of the aggregate amount available to be distributed in respect of interest on the Notes. The ratable share of the amount available to pay interest for each such class will be based on the amount of interest due on such class relative to the total amount of interest due to the Noteholders.

 

Payments of Principal

 

Priority and Amount of Principal Payments. The Trust will generally make principal payments to the Noteholders on each Distribution Date in the amount and in the priority set forth under “Application of Available Funds” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Events of Default. An Event of Default will occur if the outstanding principal amount of any Note has not been paid in full on its Final Scheduled Distribution Date. The Notes may be accelerated upon an Event of Default. If the Notes are accelerated, the priority in which the Trust makes distributions to Securityholders will change as described under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Notes Might Not Be Repaid on their Final Scheduled Distribution Dates. The principal balance of any class of Notes, to the extent not previously paid, will be due on the Final Scheduled Distribution Date relating to that class listed below. The actual date on which the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any class of Notes is paid may be earlier or, if an Insurer Default occurs, later than the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for that class based on a variety of factors, including those described under “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in the prospectus.

 

Final Scheduled Distribution Dates. The Final Scheduled Distribution Dates for the Notes are as follows:

 

                         for the Class A-1 Notes;

 

                         for the Class A-2 Notes;

 

S-35


Table of Contents
                         for the Class A-3 Notes; and
                         for the Class A-4 Notes.

 

The date on which each class of Notes is paid in full is expected to be earlier than the Final Scheduled Distribution Date for that class of Notes and could be significantly earlier depending upon the rate at which the Principal Balances of the Receivables are paid. See “The Receivables Pool—Weighted Average Lives of the Securities” in this prospectus supplement and “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in the prospectus for a further discussion of Receivable prepayments.

 

Optional Prepayment

 

The Notes will be redeemed in full on any Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase all remaining Receivables from the Trust. The redemption price payable to the holders of each class of Notes in connection with the exercise of this option will equal the principal balance of that class as of the purchase date plus accrued but unpaid interest on that principal balance at the Interest Rate applicable to that class. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Termination” in the prospectus and “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Optional Purchase of Receivables” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the circumstances under which the Servicer may exercise this option.

 

The Indenture Trustee

 

                     will act as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee is a                     . The principal corporate trust office of the Indenture Trustee is located at                     . The Indenture Trustee will have various rights and duties with respect to the Notes. See “Description of the Indenture” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of the Indenture” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the rights and duties of the Indenture Trustee. CarMax Auto, the Seller and their respective affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relations with the Indenture Trustee and its affiliates.

 

Description of the Certificates

 

The Trust will issue the Certificates under the Trust Agreement. We will file a copy of the Trust Agreement with the SEC after the Trust issues the Securities. We summarize below the material terms of the Certificates. This summary is not a complete description of all the provisions of the Certificates. This summary supplements the description of the general terms and provisions of the certificates of any given trust and the related trust agreement set forth under “Certain Information Regarding the Securities” and “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements” in the prospectus and the description of the Trust Agreement set forth under “Description of the Trust Agreement” in this prospectus supplement. We refer you to those sections.

 

Certificate Registration

 

The Certificates will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. The Certificates will initially be issued only in book-entry form. See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Book-Entry Registration” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the book-entry registration system.

Distributions of Interest

 

Interest on the Certificate Balance of the Certificates will accrue during the related accrual period at the Certificate Rate and will be payable on each Distribution Date to Certificateholders of record as of the related Record Date; provided, however, that distributions of interest on the Certificates will be subordinated as described under “—Subordination of Certificates”. The Certificates will bear interest at         % per annum.

 

Interest will accrue—:

 

    in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date to but excluding                     ,         ; or

 

    otherwise, from and including the 15th day of the prior calendar month to but excluding the 15th day of the current month (assuming each month has 30 days).

 

Interest is Calculated 30/360. The interest payable on the Certificates on each Distribution Date will equal the product of:

 

    the Certificate Balance as of the preceding Distribution Date after giving effect to all principal payments made with respect to the Certificates on that preceding Distribution Date;

 

    the Certificate Rate; and

 

    30 (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, assuming a Closing Date of                     ,         ,     ) divided by 360.

 

Unpaid Interest Accrues. Interest accrued as of any Distribution Date but not distributed on such Distribution Date will be due on the next Distribution Date, together with interest on such amount at the Certificate Rate (to the extent lawful).

 

Priority of Interest Payments. The Trust will distribute interest on the Certificates on each Distribution Date with Available Funds in accordance with the priority set forth under “Application of Available Funds” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Distributions of Principal

 

Amount of Principal Distributions. The Trust will generally make principal distributions to the Certificateholders on each Distribution Date on or after which the Notes are paid in full in the amount set forth under “Application of Available Funds” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Certificate Final Scheduled Distribution Date. The Certificate Final Scheduled Distribution Date is                     ,         . The date on which the Certificates are paid in full is expected to be earlier than the Certificate Final Scheduled Distribution Date, and could be significantly earlier depending upon the rate at which the Principal Balances of the Receivables are paid. See “The Receivables Weighted Average Lives of the Securities” in this prospectus supplement and “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in the prospectus for a further discussion of Receivable prepayments.

Subordination of Certificates

 

The Certificateholders will not be entitled to receive Monthly Certificate Interest on any Distribution Date until the Noteholders have been paid Monthly Note Interest for that Distribution Date. If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the Certificateholders will not be entitled to receive Monthly Certificate Interest on any Distribution Date until the Noteholders have been paid Monthly Note Principal for that Distribution Date. The Certificateholders will not be entitled to receive Monthly Certificate Principal on any Distribution Date until the Noteholders have been paid Monthly Note Principal for that Distribution Date. This subordination is effected by the priority of distributions set forth under “Application of Available Funds” in this prospectus supplement.

 

Optional Prepayment

 

The Certificates will be prepaid in full on any Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase all remaining Receivables from the Trust. The prepayment price payable to the Certificateholders in connection with the exercise of this option will equal the Certificate Balance as of the purchase date plus accrued but unpaid interest on that Certificate Balance at the Certificate Rate. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Termination” in the prospectus and “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Optional Purchase of Receivables” in this prospectus supplement for a further discussion of the circumstances under which the Servicer may exercise this option.

 

The Owner Trustee

 

                     will act as Owner Trustee under the Trust Agreement. The Owner Trustee is a                     . The principal corporate trust office of the Owner Trustee is located at                     ,                     ,         , Attention:                     . The Owner Trustee will have various rights and duties with respect to the Certificates. See “Description of the Trust Agreement” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the rights and duties of the Owner Trustee. CarMax Auto, the Seller and their respective affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relations with the Owner Trustee and its affiliates.

 

Application of Available Funds

 

Sources of Funds for Distributions

 

The funds available to the Trust to make payments on the Securities on each Distribution Date will come from the following sources:

 

    collections received on the Receivables during the related Collection Period;

 

    net recoveries received during the related Collection Period on Receivables that were charged off as losses in prior months;

 

    investment earnings on funds on deposit in the Collection Account in respect of the related Collection Period;

 

    proceeds of repurchases of Receivables by the Seller or purchases of Receivables by the Servicer because of certain breaches of representations or covenants;

 

S-38


Table of Contents
    funds, if any, withdrawn from the Reserve Account for that Distribution Date;

 

    the Policy Claim Amount; and

 

    if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, amounts the Insurer has deposited into the Collection Account on or before that Distribution Date as a result of the Insurer, at its option, electing to prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of the Notes and paying accrued but unpaid interest on the amount of the Notes so prepaid or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the amount of the Certificates so prepaid.

 

The calculation of the funds available to make payments on the Securities is set forth in the definition of Available Funds under “Glossary of Terms”. We refer you to that definition.

Description of the Receivables Transfer

and Servicing Agreements

 

We summarize below some of the important terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. We will file a copy of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with the SEC after the Trust issues the Securities. This summary is not a complete description of all of the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. We refer you to that document. This summary supplements the description of the Sale and Servicing Agreement set forth under “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements” in the prospectus.

 

Servicing the Receivables

 

The Servicer may, in its sole discretion but consistent with its normal practices and procedures, extend the payment schedule applicable to any Receivable for credit-related reasons; provided, however, that if the extension of a payment schedule causes a Receivable to remain outstanding after the Collection Period preceding the Certificate Final Scheduled Distribution Date, the Servicer will agree under the Sale and Servicing Agreement to purchase that Receivable for an amount equal to the Purchase Amount as of

 

S-40


Table of Contents

the last day of the Collection Period which includes the 30th day after the date of discovery by or notice to the Servicer of such extension. The purchase obligation of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement will constitute the sole remedy available to the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Owner Trustee for any extension of a payment schedule that causes a Receivable to remain outstanding after the Collection Period preceding the Certificate Final Scheduled Distribution Date.

 

The Servicer will not make any Simple Interest Advances as described under “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Simple Interest Advances” in the prospectus.

 

Accounts

 

In addition to the accounts referred to under “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Accounts” in the prospectus, the Servicer will establish:

 

    the Note Payment Account for the benefit of the Noteholders;

 

    Certificate Payment Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders; and

 

    the Reserve Account for the benefit of the Securityholders, the Servicer and the Insurer.

 

Servicing Compensation and Expenses

 

The Servicer will be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee on each Distribution Date. The Servicing Fee, together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from the prior Distribution Date, will be payable on each Distribution Date. The Servicing Fee will be paid only to the extent of the funds deposited into the Collection Account with respect to the Collection Period relating to such Distribution Date, plus funds, if any, deposited into the Collection Account from the Reserve Account and under the Insurance Policy. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Servicing Compensation and Expenses” in the prospectus.

 

Events of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Events of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

The following events will constitute Events of Servicing Termination under the Sale and Servicing Agreement:

 

    the Servicer shall fail to make any required payment or deposit under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of five Business Days following the date that payment or deposit was due or, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Distribution Date or the Business Day preceding a Distribution Date, that Distribution Date or preceding Business Day, as applicable;

 

    the Servicer shall fail to deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer the monthly report relating to the payment of amounts due to Securityholders and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of three Business Days following the date that report was due and the Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date;

 

S-41


Table of Contents
    the Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in the Sale and Servicing Agreement that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Seller, the Securityholders or the Insurer and that failure shall continue unremedied for 60 days after written notice of that failure shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to the CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, by the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance;

 

    any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, other than any representation or warranty relating to a Receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when made and that breach shall continue unremedied for 30 days after written notice of that breach shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, by the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance;

 

    the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the Servicer or its property as specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and

 

    the Servicer shall cease to be eligible to continue as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

If an Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If an Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement have been terminated, the Indenture Trustee, or a successor Servicer appointed by the Insurer or, with the consent of the Insurer, by the Indenture Trustee, will succeed to all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements. If, however, a bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer, and no Event of Servicing Termination other than that appointment has occurred and is continuing, that trustee or similar official may have the power to prevent a transfer of servicing. If the Indenture Trustee is unwilling or unable to act as successor Servicer, it may, with the consent of the Insurer, unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Servicer with a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts. The Indenture Trustee may arrange for

 

S-42


Table of Contents

compensation to be paid to the successor Servicer, which in no event may be greater than the servicing compensation paid to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except with the prior written consent of the Insurer. The predecessor Servicer will be obligated to pay the costs and expenses associated with the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer. Such amounts, if not paid by the predecessor Servicer, will be paid out of collections on the Receivables.

 

Right of Insurer to Terminate Servicer

 

The Insurance Agreement sets forth additional termination events applicable to the Servicer, including a material failure of performance by the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and an increase in the delinquencies or cumulative net losses on the Receivables above specified levels. If any such termination event shall have occurred and be continuing under the Insurance Agreement and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination” in the prospectus.

 

The holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance may, on behalf of all Securityholders, or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive any Event of Servicing Termination and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account or the Reserve Account in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that no default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement may be waived without the consent of the Insurer if the waiver would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the rights of the Insurer. No waiver of a default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement will impair the rights of the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or the Insurer with respect to any subsequent or other Event of Servicing Termination.

 

If an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer may, on behalf of all Securityholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and all consequences of that default.

 

Amendment of the Sale and Servicing Agreement

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Amendment” in the prospectus.

 

The Sale and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee but without the consent of the Securityholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Sale and Servicing Agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or in the prospectus or this prospectus supplement or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Sale and Servicing Agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that no such amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement may materially adversely affect the interests of any

 

S-43


Table of Contents

Securityholder. An amendment will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder if the person requesting the amendment obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the amendment would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of Notes or the Certificates.

 

The Sale and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may:

 

    increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Securityholders, or change the Interest Rate applicable to any class of Notes, the Certificate Rate or the Required Reserve Account Amount, without the consent of all Securityholders adversely affected by the amendment;

 

    reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or the Certificate Balance the consent of the holders of which is required for any amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement without the consent of all Securityholders adversely affected by the amendment; or

 

    adversely affect the rating assigned by any Rating Agency to any class of Notes or the Certificates without the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal balance of that class or the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Certificate Balance, as applicable.

 

No amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that the amendment will not adversely affect the tax status of the Trust. No amendment to the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if the amendment would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.

 

Optional Purchase of Receivables

 

In order to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted, at its option, to purchase all remaining Receivables from the Trust on any Distribution Date if the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection Period was 10% or less of the initial Pool Balance. The price to be paid by the Servicer in connection with the exercise of this option will equal the Purchase Amount of all Receivables; provided, however, that the purchase price paid by the Servicer for the remaining Receivables, together with amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Collection Account, must equal or exceed the Note Balance and the Certificate Balance as of the purchase date, in each case, plus accrued but unpaid interest as of the purchase date, plus all amounts due to the Servicer in respect of its servicing compensation, plus all amounts due to the Insurer. The Servicer will notify the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Seller of the Servicer’s intent to exercise this right no later

 

S-44


Table of Contents

than 30 days prior to the related Distribution Date. The exercise of this right will effect the early retirement of the Securities. See “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Termination” in the prospectus for a further discussion of the circumstances under which the Servicer may exercise this option.

 

Deposits to the Collection Account

 

The paragraph set forth below supersedes the first paragraph set forth in “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Collections” in the prospectus.

 

The Servicer will deposit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables into the Collection Account within two Business Days after such receipt; provided, however, that the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account until the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date following the Collection Period during which such amounts were received at any time that and for so long as:

 

    CarMax Auto is the Servicer;

 

    no Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing; and

 

    each other condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified by the Rating Agencies or the Insurer is satisfied.

 

As of the Closing Date, the Servicer will be required to deposit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables into the Collection Account within two Business Days after such receipt.

 

On or before each Distribution Date, the Servicer will notify the Indenture Trustee to withdraw the Reserve Account Draw Amount from the Reserve Account and to deposit this amount into the Collection Account. Amounts paid by the Insurer in respect of claims under the Insurance Policy will be deposited into the Collection Account.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, amounts paid by the Insurer on or before any Distribution Date as a result of the Insurer, at its option, electing to prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of the Notes and paying accrued but unpaid interest on the amount of the Notes so prepaid or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the amount of the Certificates so prepaid will be deposited into the Collection Account.

 

Servicer Will Provide Information to Indenture Trustee

 

On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer will provide the Indenture Trustee with the information specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Distribution Date or the related Collection Period, including:

 

    the aggregate amount of collections on the Receivables;

 

    the aggregate amount of Defaulted Receivables;

 

    the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables to be repurchased by the Seller or to be purchased by the Servicer;

 

    the Reserve Account Draw Amount, if any;

 

S-45


Table of Contents
    the Reserve Account Amount;

 

    the Insurance Payment Amount, if any;

 

    the aggregate amount to be distributed as principal and interest on the Securities; and

 

    the Servicing Fee.

 

Reserve Account

 

The Servicer will establish and maintain with the Indenture Trustee the Reserve Account into which certain excess collections on the Receivables will be deposited and from which amounts may be withdrawn to pay the monthly Servicing Fees to the Servicer, to make required payments on the Securities and to make required payments to the Insurer.

 

The Seller will deposit the Reserve Account Initial Deposit in the Reserve Account on the Closing Date. On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee will deposit in the Reserve Account, from amounts collected on or in respect of the Receivables during the preceding month and not used on that Distribution Date to make required payments to the Servicer, the Securityholders or the Insurer, the amount, if any, by which the Required Reserve Account Amount for that Distribution Date exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date, after giving effect to all required withdrawals from the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date. The amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account will be invested by the Servicer in eligible investments acceptable to each Rating Agency. The Reserve Account must be maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account.

 

On each Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the Reserve Account Draw Amount, if any, for the following Distribution Date. If the Reserve Account Draw Amount for any Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw that amount, up to the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, from the Reserve Account and transfer the amount withdrawn to the Collection Account. If the amount required to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in funds on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, a temporary shortfall in the amounts distributed to the Securityholders could result. In addition, depletion of the Reserve Account ultimately could result in losses on your Securities.

 

If the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Distribution Date exceeds the Required Reserve Account Amount for that Distribution Date, after giving effect to all required deposits to and withdrawals from the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date, that excess will be paid to the Seller. Any amount paid to the Seller will no longer be the property of the Trust. On or after the termination of the Trust, the Seller will be entitled to receive any amounts remaining in the Reserve Account after all required payments to the Servicer and the Insurer have been made, after all required payments to the Securityholders have been made and after the Insurance Policy has been terminated and returned to the Insurer for cancellation.

The above ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold the Securities, and the ratings may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies. Any downward revision or withdrawal of any of the above ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Securities. [Insurer] does not guarantee the market price of the Securities, nor does it guarantee that the ratings on the Securities will not be revised or withdrawn.

 

Description of the Insurance Policy

 

On the Closing Date, the Insurer will issue the Insurance Policy under which the Insurer will unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the payment of the Servicing Fee, Monthly Note Interest, Monthly Note Principal, Monthly Certificate Interest and Monthly Certificate Principal for each Distribution Date. In addition, the Insurance Policy will cover any amount paid or required to be paid by the Trust to the Securityholders, which amount is guaranteed by the Insurance Policy and is sought to be recovered as a voidable preference by a trustee in a bankruptcy of CarMax Auto, the Servicer, the Seller or the Trust under the Bankruptcy Code in accordance with a final non-appealable order of a court having competent jurisdiction upon receipt by the Insurer of the documents described in the Insurance Policy. The Insurer will pay any amount payable under the Insurance Policy no later than 12:00 noon, Eastern Time, on the later of the related Distribution Date and the second Business Day following receipt by the Insurer of a notice from the Indenture Trustee specifying the Policy Claim Amount for that Distribution Date. In making a claim under the Insurance Policy, the Indenture Trustee will act on behalf of the Securityholders and will comply with all the terms and conditions of the Insurance Policy. All amounts paid under the Insurance Policy will be deposited by the Indenture Trustee in the Collection Account. The Insurance Policy will be issued under the Insurance Agreement.

 

S-48


Table of Contents

The Insurer will be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date, from the Available Funds for that Distribution Date plus any amounts withdrawn from the Reserve Account on that Distribution Date, the premium payable under the Insurance Agreement for that Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of any unreimbursed payments under the Insurance Policy and various other amounts, in each case as described under “Application of Available Funds—Priority of Distributions” in this prospectus supplement. The Insurer will not be entitled to reimbursement of any amounts paid under the Insurance Policy from the Securityholders. The Insurer will have no obligations to the Securityholders, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee other than its obligations under the Insurance Policy.

 

The Insurer’s obligations under the Insurance Policy will be discharged to the extent funds to pay such obligations are deposited into the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account or the Certificate Payment Account by the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or disbursed by the Insurer as provided in the Insurance Policy, whether or not such funds are properly applied by the Owner Trustee or by the Indenture Trustee.

 

The Insurance Policy does not cover shortfalls, if any, attributable to the liability of the Trust or the Indenture Trustee for withholding taxes, if any (including interest and penalties in respect of such liability).

 

There will be no acceleration payment due under the Insurance Policy unless such acceleration is at the sole option of the Insurer.

 

Other Terms of the Insurance Policy

 

If payment of any amount guaranteed under the Insurance Policy is avoided as a preference pursuant to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law in a proceeding by or against CarMax Auto, the Servicer, the Seller or the Trust, the Insurer will cause such payment to be made upon receipt by the Insurer from the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders of:

 

    a certified copy of a final, nonappealable order of the court which exercised jurisdiction to the effect that the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders are required to return any such payment paid during the term of the Insurance Policy because such payment was avoided as a preference payment under applicable law;

 

    an assignment irrevocably assigning to the Insurer all rights and claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders relating to or arising under such avoided payment; and

 

    a notice for payment appropriately completed and executed by the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders.

 

Such payment will be disbursed to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in such order and not to the Indenture Trustee or any Securityholder directly (unless such Securityholder has returned principal and interest paid on the Securities to such receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy, in which case such payment will be disbursed to such Securityholder).

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Insurer be obligated to make any payment in respect of any avoided payment, which payment represents a payment of interest on or principal of the Securities, prior to the time the Insurer would have otherwise been required to make a payment in respect of such interest or principal.

Description of the Indenture

 

We summarize below some of the important terms of the Indenture. We will file a copy of the Indenture with the SEC after the Trust issues the Securities. This summary is not a complete description of all of the provisions of the Indenture. We refer you to that document. This summary supplements the description of the Indenture set forth under “Description of the Indenture” in the prospectus.

 

Events of Default

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Events of Default” in the prospectus.

 

The following events will constitute “Events of Default” under the Indenture:

 

    a default in the payment of interest on any Note for five or more Business Days;

 

    a default in the payment of principal of any Note on the related Final Scheduled Distribution Date;

 

    a default in the observance or performance of any other material covenant or agreement of the Trust made in the Indenture and such default not having been cured for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof has been given to the Trust by the Seller, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to the Trust, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance;

 

    any representation or warranty made by the Trust in the Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith having been incorrect in any material respect as of the time made and such incorrectness not having been cured for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof has been given to the Trust by the Seller, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to the Trust, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance;

 

    certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the Trust or its property as specified in the Indenture; and

 

    the submission of a claim under the Insurance Policy;

 

provided, however, that, unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, none of the Seller, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders may declare an Event of Default. If an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, an Event of Default will occur only upon delivery by the Insurer to the Seller and the Indenture Trustee of notice that an Event of Default has occurred.

 

Rights Upon Event of Default

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Rights Upon Event of Default” in the prospectus.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer may declare the Notes immediately due and payable and cause the Indenture Trustee to sell the property of the Trust in whole or in part and to distribute the proceeds of that sale in accordance with the Indenture. The Insurer may not, however, cause the

 

S-50


Table of Contents

Indenture Trustee to sell the property of the Trust in whole or in part following an Event of Default if the proceeds of that sale would not be sufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes unless the Event of Default arose from a claim being made under the Insurance Policy or from an event of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation with respect to the Trust. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer, at its option, may elect to prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes and, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Certificates. The Indenture Trustee will continue to submit claims under the Insurance Policy with respect to the Securities following an Event of Default.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance may declare the Notes immediately due and payable. Any declaration of acceleration by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders may be rescinded by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance at any time before a judgment or decree for payment of the amount due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee if the Trust has deposited with the Indenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all principal of and interest on the Notes as if the Event of Default giving rise to the declaration of acceleration had not occurred and all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal of the Notes that has become due solely as a result of the acceleration, have been cured or waived.

 

If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may institute proceedings to collect amounts due, exercise remedies as a secured party, including foreclosure or sale of the property of the Trust, or elect to maintain the property of the Trust and continue to apply proceeds from the property of the Trust as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. The Indenture Trustee may not, however, sell the property of the Trust following an Event of Default, other than a default for five or more Business Days in the payment of interest on the Notes or a default in the payment of any required principal payment on the Notes unless:

 

    the holders of Notes evidencing 100% of the Note Balance consent to the sale;

 

    the proceeds of the sale will be sufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes and all amounts due to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement; or

 

    the Indenture Trustee determines that the property of the Trust would not be sufficient on an ongoing basis to make all payments on the Notes as those payments would have become due had the Notes not been declared due and payable and the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance consent to the sale.

 

The Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an independent accountant or investment banking firm as to the sufficiency of the property of the Trust to pay principal of and interest on the Notes on an ongoing basis.

 

If the property of the Trust is sold following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee will apply or cause to be applied the proceeds of that sale to make the following payments in the following order of priority:

 

  (1)   to the Indenture Trustee, all amounts due to the Indenture Trustee as compensation under the terms of the Indenture;

 

  (2)   to the Servicer, all accrued but unpaid Servicing Fees;

 

  (3)   to the Noteholders, all accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes;

 

  (4)   to the Noteholders, the Note Balance;

 

  (5)   to the Certificateholders, all accrued but unpaid interest on the Certificates;

 

  (6)   to the Certificateholders, the Certificate Balance;

 

  (7)   to the Insurer, all overdue insurance premiums under the Insurance Agreement;

 

  (8)   to the Insurer, all unreimbursed payments made under the Policy, plus any other amounts due to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement; and

 

  (9)   to the successor Servicer, any unpaid transition expenses due in respect of a transfer of servicing and any accrued but unpaid Additional Servicing Fees.

 

Any remaining amounts will be distributed to the Seller.

 

S-51


Table of Contents

If the property of the Trust is sold following an Event of Default and the proceeds of that sale are not sufficient to pay in full the principal balance of and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Securities, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw available amounts from the Reserve Account and submit claims under the Insurance Policy in respect of that shortfall.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of the Noteholders if the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes that it will not be adequately indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in complying with that request or direction. The holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance will have the right, subject to certain limitations contained in the Indenture, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee.

 

No holder of a Note will have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, unless:

 

    the holder previously has given to the Indenture Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

 

    the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name as Indenture Trustee;
    the holder or holders have offered the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

 

    the Indenture Trustee has for 60 days after such notice, request and offer of indemnity failed to institute the proceeding; and

 

    no direction inconsistent with such request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance.

 

If the Indenture Trustee receives conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each holding Notes evidencing less than 51% of the Note Balance, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion will determine what action, if any, will be taken with respect to such requests.

 

The Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, by accepting the Notes, will covenant that they will not at any time institute against the Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

 

Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Owner Trustee, nor any Certificateholder, nor any of their respective owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates, successors or assigns will be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Notes or for the agreements of the Trust contained in the Indenture.

 

The right of any Noteholder to receive payments of principal and interest on its Notes when due, or to institute suit for any payments not made when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the holder’s consent.

Waiver of Past Defaults

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Waiver of Past Defaults” in the prospectus.

 

Prior to acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, the Insurer, if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any past default or Event of Default, other than a default in payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or in respect of any covenant or other provision in the Indenture that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the unanimous consent of the Noteholders.

 

Replacement of Indenture Trustee

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture—Replacement of Indenture Trustee” in the prospectus.

 

The Insurer, if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, may remove the Indenture Trustee without cause by notifying the Indenture Trustee, the Trust, the Seller, the Insurer and each Rating Agency of that removal and, following that removal, may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. Any successor Indenture Trustee must at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and must have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and a long-term debt rating of investment grade by each Rating Agency or must otherwise be acceptable to each Rating Agency.

 

The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by notifying the Trust, the Noteholders and the Insurer of that resignation. The Trust will be required to remove the Indenture Trustee if:

 

    the Indenture Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue as the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture;

 

    the Indenture Trustee is adjudged to be bankrupt or insolvent;

 

    a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or

 

    the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

 

Upon the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, or the failure of the Noteholders to appoint a successor Indenture Trustee following the removal of the Indenture Trustee without cause, the Administrator, with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, will be required promptly to appoint a successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. Any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee will not become effective until acceptance of such appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee.

 

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

 

If the Insurance Policy has been terminated and returned to the Insurer for cancellation, the Indenture will be discharged with respect to the collateral securing the Notes:

 

S-53


Table of Contents
    upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation of all the Notes or, if all Notes not delivered to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, upon deposit with the Indenture Trustee of funds sufficient for the payment in full of the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes;

 

    upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer of an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, which may be internal counsel to CarMax Auto or the Servicer, stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been satisfied; and

 

    upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee of an opinion of counsel, which may be internal counsel to CarMax Auto or the Servicer, to the effect that the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture will not cause any Noteholder to be treated as having sold or exchanged its Notes for purposes of Section 1001 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Modification of Indenture

 

The provisions set forth below supersede the provisions set forth in “Description of the Indenture— Modification of Indenture” in the prospectus.

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Indenture Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders but with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, with prior written notice to the Insurer and each Rating Agency, enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding to the covenants of the Trust for the benefit of the Noteholders, curing any ambiguity, correcting or supplementing any provision of the Indenture which may be inconsistent with any other provision of the Indenture or of the prospectus or this prospectus supplement or adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of the Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder.

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Indenture Trustee may, with the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, and with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, with prior written notice to the Insurer and each Rating Agency, enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture consented to by the Insurer on behalf of the Noteholders may materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder; and, provided further, that no such supplemental indenture may, without the consent of all Noteholders affected by such supplemental indenture:

 

    change the Final Scheduled Distribution Date or the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note or reduce the principal amount, the interest rate or the redemption price with respect to any Note, change the application of collections on or the proceeds of a sale of the property of the Trust to payment of principal and interest on the Notes or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any interest on any Note is payable;

    modify or alter the provisions of the Indenture regarding the voting of Notes held by the Trust, any other obligor on the Notes, the Seller or an affiliate of any of them or modify or alter the definition of Note Balance;

    affect the calculation of the amount of interest or principal payable on any Note on any Distribution Date, including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation;

 

    affect the rights of the Noteholders to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes provided in the Indenture; or

 

    permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any of the collateral for the Notes or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in the Indenture, terminate the lien of the Indenture on any such collateral or deprive the holder of any Note of the security afforded by the lien of the Indenture.

 

A supplemental indenture will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder if the person requesting the supplemental indenture obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the supplemental indenture would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of Securities.

 

No supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that the supplemental indenture will not materially adversely affect the taxation of any Security, or any Securityholder, or adversely affect the tax status of the Trust. No supplemental indenture will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if the supplemental indenture would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.

The Servicer will pay to the Owner Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services, reimburse the Owner Trustee for all expenses and disbursements reasonably incurred or made by it and indemnify the Owner Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities or expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by it in connection with the administration of the Trust or the performance of its duties under the Trust Agreement; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee will not be indemnified against any loss, liability or expense incurred by it through its own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The Owner Trustee will not be liable:

 

    for any error of judgment made by it in good faith unless it is proved that the Owner Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

 

    for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with directions received by it from the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer, the Seller, the Administrator or the Servicer;

 

    for indebtedness evidenced by or arising under the Trust Agreement or any other document relating to the Trust, including the principal of or interest on the Securities; or

    for the default or misconduct of the Servicer, the Administrator, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee or any agent or attorney selected by the Owner Trustee with reasonable care.

 

Termination of Trust

 

If the Insurance Policy has been terminated and returned to the Insurer for cancellation, the Trust Agreement, except for provisions relating to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification of the Owner Trustee, will terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Trust will dissolve upon the earlier of:

 

    the payment to the Servicer, the Insurer and the Securityholders of all amounts required to be paid to them under the Insurance Agreement, the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement, as applicable; and

 

    the Distribution Date following the month which is one year after the maturity or other liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of any property remaining in the Trust.

 

Amendment of Trust Agreement

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Seller may, without the consent of the Securityholders but with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, with prior written notice to the Insurer and each Rating Agency, amend the Trust Agreement for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, correcting or supplementing any provision of the Trust Agreement which may be inconsistent with any other provision of the Trust Agreement or of the prospectus or this prospectus supplement or adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Trust Agreement which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of the Trust Agreement; provided, however, that no such amendment may materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder. An amendment will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder if the person requesting the amendment obtains and delivers to the Owner Trustee:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the amendment would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of Notes or the Certificates.

 

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Seller may, with the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, and with the consent of the Insurer if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, with prior written notice to the Insurer and each Rating Agency, amend the Trust Agreement for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Trust Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may:

 

    increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Securityholders, or change the Interest Rate applicable to any class of Notes or the Certificate Rate without the consent of all Securityholders adversely affected by the amendment;

 

S-57


Table of Contents
    reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or the Certificate Balance the consent of the holders of which is required for any amendment to the Trust Agreement without the consent of all Securityholders adversely affected by the amendment; or

 

    adversely affect the rating assigned by any Rating Agency to any class of Notes or the Certificates without the consent of the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the principal balance of that class or the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Certificate Balance, as applicable.

 

No amendment to the Trust Agreement will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Owner Trustee to the effect that the amendment will not materially adversely affect the taxation of any Security, or any Securityholder, or adversely affect the tax status of the Trust. No amendment to the Trust Agreement will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if the amendment would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.

 

Description of the Administration Agreement

 

Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, CarMax Auto, as Administrator, will provide notices and perform other obligations of the Trust under the Indenture and the Trust Agreement. The Administrator will be entitled to a monthly administrative fee as compensation for the performance of its obligations under the Administration Agreement, which fee will be paid by the Servicer.

 

Material Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, counsel for the Seller, for federal income tax purposes, the Notes will be characterized as debt and the Trust will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation. See “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus.

 

ERISA Considerations

 

The Notes

 

The Notes may, in general, be purchased by, on behalf of or with “plan assets” of Plans. Although we cannot assure you in this regard, the Notes should be treated as “debt” and not as “equity interests” for purposes of the Plan Assets Regulation because the Notes:

 

    are expected to be treated as indebtedness under local law and will, in the opinion of federal tax counsel for the Trust, be treated as debt, rather than equity, for federal income tax purposes (see “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus); and

 

    should not be deemed to have any “substantial equity features”.

 

See “ERISA Considerations” in the prospectus.

 

However, the acquisition and holding of Notes of any class by or on behalf of a Plan could be considered to give rise to a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code if the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, a holder of 50% or more of the Certificates or any of their respective affiliates is or becomes a “party in interest” or a “disqualified person” (as defined in ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, respectively) with respect to such Plan.

 

S-58


Table of Contents

Depending on the relevant facts and circumstances, certain prohibited transaction exemptions may apply to the purchase or holding of securities—for example, PTCE 96-23, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by an “in-house asset manager”; PTCE 95-60, which exempts certain transactions by insurance company general accounts; PTCE 91-38, which exempts certain transactions by bank collective investment funds; PTCE 90-1, which exempts certain transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts; or PTCE 84-14, which exempts certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by a “qualified professional asset manager”. Each investor in a Note, by its acceptance of the Note or a beneficial interest therein, will be deemed to represent either that it is not a Plan, and is not investing on behalf of or with plan assets of a Plan, or that its acquisition and holding of the Note satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under one of the foregoing exemptions.

 

Because the Trust, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Truste, the underwriters, the Insurer, any other provider of credit support or any of their affiliates may receive certain benefits in connection with the sale of the Notes, the purchase of Notes using plan assets over which any of such parties has investment authority may be deemed to be a violation of the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code for which no exemption may be available. Accordingly, any investor considering a purchase of Notes using plan assets should consult with its counsel if the Trust, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, any underwriter, the Insurer, any other provider of credit support or any of their affiliates has investment authority with respect to such assets or is an employer maintaining or contributing to the Plan. For additional information regarding treatment of the notes under ERISA, see “ERISA Considerations” in the prospectus.

 

The Certificates

 

Because the Certificates constitute equity interests in the Trust, ownership of Certificates by Plans may cause the assets of the Trust to constitute plan assets of Plans, and to be subject to the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, Certificates may not be acquired by or on behalf of Plans.

 

In addition, investors other than Plans should be aware that a prohibited transaction under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code could be deemed to occur if a holder of 50% or more of the Certificates or any of its affiliates is or becomes a “party in interest” or a “disqualified person” with respect to any Plan that acquires and holds the Notes without the investment by such Plan being covered by one or more exemptions from the prohibited transaction rules.

 

Each purchaser of the Certificates will be deemed to represent and certify that it is not a Plan, and is not acquiring such Certificates on behalf of, or with plan assets of, any Plan.

 

For additional information regarding treatment of the Certificates under ERISA, including certain consideration for insurance companies using the assets of a general account, see “ERISA Considerations” in the prospectus.

The selling concessions that the underwriters may allow to certain dealers and the discounts that such dealers may reallow to certain other dealers, expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of each class of Notes or the Certificates, as the case may be, shall be as follows:

Until the distribution of the Securities is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the related underwriters and certain selling group members to bid for and purchase the Securities. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the prices of the Securities. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the prices of the Securities.

 

The underwriters may make short sales in the Securities in connection with this offering (i.e., they sell more Notes or Certificates than they are required to purchase in the offering). This type of short sale is commonly referred to as a “naked” short sale because the related underwriters do not have an option to

 

S-60


Table of Contents

purchase these additional Securities in the offering. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing Notes or Certificates, as the case may be, in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the related underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Notes or the Certificates in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the Notes or the Certificates, as the case may be, or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes or the Certificates.

 

The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on certain underwriters and selling group members. This means that if the underwriters purchase Securities in the open market to reduce the underwriters’ short position or to stabilize the price of such Securities, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from any underwriter or selling group member who sold those Securities as part of the offering.

 

In general, purchases of a Security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the Security to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a Security to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the Security.

 

Neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Securities. In addition, neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation that the underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

 

The Securities are new issues of securities and there currently is no secondary market for the Notes or the Certificates. The underwriters for the Notes and the Certificates, respectively, expect to make a secondary market for the related Securities, but will not be obligated to do so. We cannot assure you that a secondary market for the Notes or the Certificates will develop. If a secondary market for the Notes or the Certificates does develop, it might end at any time or it might not be sufficiently liquid to enable you to resell any of your Notes or Certificates.

 

The Indenture Trustee may, from time to time, invest the funds in the Collection Account and the Reserve Account in investments acquired from or issued by the underwriters or their affiliates.

 

In the ordinary course of business, the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged and may engage in investment banking and commercial banking transactions with CarMax Auto, the Seller and their affiliates.

 

CarMax Auto and the Seller have jointly and severally agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including civil liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments which the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

The closings of the sale of each class of Notes and the Certificates are conditioned on the closing of the sale of each other class of Notes and the Certificates.

 

Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic prospectus from an underwriter or a request by such investor’s representative within the period during which there is an obligation to deliver a prospectus, the Seller or the underwriter will promptly deliver, without charge, a paper copy of this prospectus supplement and the prospectus.

The globally-offered securities will be tradeable as home market instruments in both the European and United States domestic markets. Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

 

Secondary market trading between investors holding globally-offered securities through Clearstream and Euroclear will be conducted in accordance with their normal rules and operating procedures and in accordance with conventional eurobond practice.

 

Secondary market trading between investors holding globally-offered securities through DTC will be conducted in accordance with the rules and procedures applicable to United States corporate debt obligations.

 

Secondary cross-market trading between Clearstream or Euroclear and organizations participating in DTC that hold offered securities will be effected on a delivery-against-payment basis through the respective depositaries of Clearstream and Euroclear, in such capacity, and as DTC participants.

 

See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Book-Entry Registration” in the prospectus for further information.

 

A beneficial owner of globally-offered certificates holding securities through Clearstream or Euroclear (or through The Depository Trust Company if the holder has an address outside the U.S.) will be subject to the 30% U.S. withholding tax that generally applies to payments of interest (including original issue discount) on registered debt issued by U.S. Persons (or, in the case of a Non-United States Person holding the certificates through a partnership, such other rate as is applicable), unless each clearing system, bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business in the chain of intermediaries between that beneficial owner and the U.S. entity required to withhold tax complies with applicable certification requirements and that beneficial owner takes steps to obtain one of the following exemptions or reduced tax rate:

 

Exemption For Non-United States Persons. Non-United States Persons that are beneficial owners of the notes and are individuals or entities treated as corporations for federal income tax purposes can generally obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-8 BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding). A Non-United States Person not described in the foregoing sentence that beneficially owns a note may be subject to more complex rules.

 

Exemption For Non-United States Persons With Effectively Connected Income. Non-United States Persons, including non-United States corporations or banks with a United States branch, that are beneficial owners of the notes and for which the related interest income is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States can obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-8 ECI (Certificate of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption from Withholdings on Income Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United States).

 

Exemption or Reduced Rate For Non-United States Persons Resident in Treaty Countries. Non-United States Persons that that for federal income tax purposes are individuals or entities treated as

 

S-I-1


Table of Contents

corporations that beneficially own the notes and reside in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States can obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate, depending on the treaty terms, by filing Form W-8 BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding). A Non-United States Person not described in the foregoing sentence that beneficially owns a note may be subject to more complex rules.

 

Exemption For United States Persons. United States Persons that are beneficial owners of the notes and certificates can obtain a complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-9 (Payer’s Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).

 

United States Federal Income Tax Reporting Procedure. The beneficial owner of a globally-offered security files by submitting the appropriate form to the person through whom he holds, which person would be the clearing agency in the case of persons holding directly on the books of the clearing agency. Form W-8 ECI and Form W-8 BEN are effective from the date the form is signed through the end of the third succeeding calendar year. If the information on either Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI changes, a new Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, as applicable, must be filed within 30 days of such change. Form W-8BEN and Form W-8ECI may be filed by the beneficial owner of a security or its agent.

 

This summary does not deal with all aspects of United States federal income tax withholding that may be relevant to foreign holders of the globally-offered securities. We suggest that you read “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the prospectus for further information and consult your own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of holding or disposing of the globally-offered securities. The information contained in this Annex I is an integral part of the prospectus supplement to which it is attached.

Important Notice About Information Presented in

this Prospectus and the Accompanying

Prospectus Supplement

 

We provide information on your securities in two separate documents that offer varying levels of detail:

 

    this prospectus provides general information, some of which may not apply to your securities; and

 

    the accompanying prospectus supplement provides specific information about the terms of your securities.

 

If the information in this prospectus varies from the information in the accompanying prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement.

 

We include cross-references to sections in these documents where you can find further related discussions. Refer to the table of contents in the front of each document to locate the referenced sections.

 

You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus and the accompanying prospectus supplement, including any information incorporated by reference. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information.

 

Where You Can Find Additional Information

 

CarMax Funding, as the originator of each trust, has filed a registration statement with the SEC under the Securities Act. The registration statement includes information not included in this prospectus.

 

You may inspect and copy the registration statement at the public reference facilities maintained by the SEC at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 (telephone 1-800-732-0330). Also, the SEC maintains a Web site at http://www.sec.gov containing reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with the SEC.

 

Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference

 

The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” information filed with it by CarMax Funding on behalf of a trust, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this prospectus. Information that we file later with the SEC will automatically update the information in this prospectus. In all cases, you should rely on the later information over different information included in this prospectus or the related prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

Summary

 

This summary describes the main structural features that may apply to your securities. This summary does not contain all of the information that may be important to you and does not describe all of the terms of your securities. To fully understand the terms of your securities, you will need to read both this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement in their entirety.

 

The Trusts

 

A separate trust will be formed to issue each series of securities. If the trust issues only notes or both notes and certificates, it will be formed by a trust agreement between CarMax Funding and the trustee of the trust. If the trust issues only certificates, it will be formed by a pooling and servicing agreement among CarMax Funding, the servicer and the trustee of the trust.

 

Seller

 

CarMax Auto Funding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

 

Servicer

 

CarMax Auto Superstores, Inc., a Virginia corporation.

 

Trustee

 

The prospectus supplement will name the trustee of the trust.

 

Indenture Trustee

 

If a trust issues notes, the prospectus supplement will name the indenture trustee with respect to the notes.

 

Securities

 

The securities issued by each trust may include one or more classes of notes and/or certificates. You will find the following information about each class of securities in the prospectus supplement:

 

    its principal amount;

 

    its interest rate, which may be fixed or variable or a combination of fixed and variable rates;

 

    the timing, amount and priority or subordination of payments of principal and interest;

 

    the method for calculating the amount of principal and interest payments;

 

    its final scheduled distribution date;

 

    whether and when it may be redeemed prior to its final scheduled distribution date; and

 

    how losses on the receivables are allocated among the classes of securities.

 

Some classes of securities may be entitled to:

 

    principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or no interest payments; or

 

    interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no principal payments.

 

The prospectus supplement will identify any class of securities of a series that is not being offered to the public.

 

Generally, you may purchase the securities only in book-entry form and will not receive your securities in definitive form. You may purchase securities in the denominations set forth in the prospectus supplement. The record date for a distribution date will be the business day immediately preceding the distribution date or, if definitive securities are issued, the last day of the preceding calendar month.

Table of Contents

The Receivables and Other Trust Property

 

The Receivables

 

The property of each trust will consist of a pool of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts or motor vehicle retail installment loans originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto, which contracts and loans are referred to in this prospectus and the accompanying prospectus supplement as the receivables, and other related property, including:

 

    the right to receive payments made on the receivables after the cutoff date specified in the related prospectus supplement;

 

    security interests in the vehicles financed by the receivables; and

 

    any proceeds from claims on certain related insurance policies.

 

You will find a description of the characteristics of each trust’s receivables in the related prospectus supplement.

 

For a more detailed description of the receivables, including the criteria they must meet in order to be included in a trust, and the other property supporting the related securities, see “The Receivables”.

 

Other Property of the Trust

 

In addition to the receivables, each trust will own amounts on deposit in various trust accounts, which may include:

 

    an account into which collections are deposited;

 

    an account to fund post-closing purchases of additional receivables; or

 

    a reserve account or other account providing credit enhancement.

 

Purchase of Receivables After the Closing Date

 

If a trust has not purchased all of its receivables at the time you purchase your securities, it will purchase the remainder of its receivables from CarMax Funding over a funding period specified in the related prospectus supplement. A funding period will not exceed one year from the applicable closing date. During a funding period, the trust will purchase receivables using amounts deposited on the closing date into the pre-funding account which will be an account of the trust established with the related trustee. The other terms, conditions and limitations of the purchase of receivables during any funding period will be specified in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Credit or Cash Flow Enhancement

 

The prospectus supplement will specify the credit or cash flow enhancement, if any, for each trust. Credit or cash flow enhancement may consist of one or more of the following:

 

    subordination of one or more classes of securities;

 

    a reserve account;

 

    overcollateralization (i.e., the amount by which the principal amount of the receivables exceeds the principal amount of the securities);

 

    excess interest collections (i.e., the excess of anticipated interest collections on the receivables over servicing fees, interest on the securities and any amounts required to be deposited in any reserve account);

 

    a letter of credit or other credit facility;

 

    a surety bond or insurance policy;

 

    liquidity arrangements;

 

6


Table of Contents
    swaps (including currency swaps) and other derivative instruments and interest rate protection agreements;

 

    repurchase or put obligations;

 

    yield supplement agreements;

 

    guaranteed investment contracts;

 

    guaranteed rate agreements; or

 

    other agreements with respect to third party payments or other support.

 

Limitations or exclusions from coverage could apply to any form of credit or cash flow enhancement. The prospectus supplement will describe the credit or cash flow enhancement and related limitations and exclusions applicable to securities issued by a trust. Enhancements cannot guarantee that losses will not be incurred on the securities.

 

Reserve Account

 

If there is a reserve account, CarMax Funding will initially deposit in it cash or securities having a value equal to the amount specified in the prospectus supplement.

 

Amounts on deposit in a reserve account will be available to cover shortfalls in the payments on the securities as described in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement may also specify:

 

    a minimum balance to be maintained in the reserve account and what funds are available for deposit to reinstate that balance; and

 

    when and to whom any amount will be distributed if the reserve account balance exceeds this minimum amount.

 

For more information about credit and cash flow enhancement, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement”.

 

Optional Purchase

 

If so provided in the prospectus supplement, the servicer will have the option to purchase the receivables held by the related trust on any distribution date on which the aggregate principal balance of the receivables is 10% or less of their initial aggregate principal balance. Upon such a purchase, the securities of the trust will be prepaid in full.

 

Transfer and Servicing of the Receivables

 

With respect to each trust, CarMax Auto will sell the related receivables to CarMax Funding under a receivables purchase agreement, which, in turn, will transfer the receivables to the trust under a sale and servicing agreement or a pooling and servicing agreement. The servicer will agree with the trust to be responsible for servicing, managing, maintaining custody of and making collections on the receivables.

 

For more information about the sale and servicing of the receivables, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Sale and Assignment of Receivables”.

 

Servicing Fees

 

Each trust will pay the servicer a servicing fee based on the outstanding principal balance of the receivables. The amount of the servicing fee will be specified in the prospectus supplement. The servicer may also be entitled to retain as supplemental servicing compensation fees and charges paid by obligors and net investment income from reinvestment of collections on the receivables.

 

Optional Servicer Advances of Late Interest Payments

 

If so provided in the prospectus supplement, when interest collections received on the receivables are less than the scheduled interest collections in a monthly collection period, the servicer will advance to the trust that portion of the shortfalls that the servicer, in its sole

 

7


Table of Contents

discretion, expects to be paid in the future by the related obligors.

 

The servicer will be entitled to reimbursement from other collections of the trust for advances that are not repaid out of collections of the related interest payments.

 

For more information about servicer advances, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Simple Interest Advances” in this prospectus.

 

Repurchase May Be Required in Certain Circumstances

 

If so provided in the prospectus supplement, CarMax Funding will be obligated to repurchase any receivable transferred to the trust if:

 

    one of CarMax Funding’s representations or warranties is breached with respect to that receivable;

 

    the receivable is materially and adversely affected by the breach; and

 

    the breach has not been cured following the discovery by or notice to CarMax Funding of the breach.

 

If so provided in the prospectus supplement, CarMax Funding will be permitted, in a circumstance where it would otherwise be required to repurchase a receivable as described in the preceding paragraph, to instead substitute a comparable receivable for the receivable required to be repurchased.

 

In the course of its normal servicing procedures, the servicer may defer or modify the payment schedule of a receivable. Some of these arrangements may obligate the servicer to repurchase the receivable.

 

For a discussion of the representations and warranties given by CarMax Funding and the servicer and their related repurchase obligations, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Sale and Assignment of Receivables” and “—Servicing Procedures”.

 

Investment in the Securities

 

There are material risks associated with an investment in the securities.

 

For a discussion of the risk factors which should be considered in deciding whether to purchase any of the securities, see “Risk Factors” in the prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Tax Status

 

Trusts Other Than Grantor Trusts

 

Unless the prospectus supplement specifies that the related trust will be treated as a grantor trust, it is the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the trust, that for federal income tax purposes:

 

    the notes will be characterized as debt unless otherwise stated in the prospectus supplement; and

 

    the trust will not be characterized as an association, or a publicly traded partnership, taxable as a corporation.

 

The noteholders will agree by their purchase of notes to treat the notes as debt for federal income tax purposes.

 

Grantor Trusts

 

If the prospectus supplement specifies that the related trust will be treated as a grantor trust, it is the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the trust, that for federal income tax purposes:

 

    the trust will be characterized as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part 1 of Subchapter J of the Internal Revenue Code and not as an association, or publicly traded partnership, taxable as a corporation; and

 

8


Table of Contents
    each grantor trust certificateholder will be treated as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in each of the assets included in the trust.

 

Each grantor trust certificateholder will be required to report on its federal income tax return in accordance with the grantor trust certificateholder’s method of accounting its pro rata share of the entire income from the receivables in the trust, including interest, original interest discount, if any, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any gain, if any, recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges received by the servicer.

 

For additional information concerning the application of federal income tax laws to the securities, see “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences”.

 

ERISA Considerations

 

Notes

 

The notes will generally be eligible for purchase by or with plan assets of employee benefit and other plans that are subject to ERISA or to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Certificates

 

Certificates issued by a grantor trust that are rated BBB- (or its equivalent) or better will generally be eligible for purchase by or with plan assets of employee benefit and other plans. Certificates issued by a grantor trust that are not rated BBB- (or its equivalent) or better and certificates issued by owner trusts generally will not be eligible for purchase by or with plan assets of employee benefit and other plans.

 

If you are an employee benefit or other plan, you should review the matters discussed under “ERISA Considerations” before investing in the securities.

Table of Contents

Risk Factors

 

You should consider the following risk factors in deciding whether to purchase any of the securities. The risk factors stated here and in the prospectus supplement describe the principal risks of an investment in the securities.

 

You may have difficulty selling your securities or obtaining your desired sale price   

 

 

 

There may be no secondary market for the securities. Underwriters may participate in making a secondary market in the securities, but are under no obligation to do so. We cannot assure you that a secondary market will develop. In addition, there have been times in the past where there have been very few buyers of asset backed securities and thus there has been a lack of liquidity. There may be a similar lack of liquidity in the future. As a result, you may not be able to sell your securities when you want to do so, or you may not be able to obtain the price that you wish to receive.

The securities are not suitable investments for all investors   

 

 

The securities are not a suitable investment for any investor that requires a regular or predictable schedule of payments or payment on specific dates. The securities are complex investments that should be considered only by sophisticated investors. We suggest that only investors who, either alone or with their financial, tax and legal advisors, have the expertise to analyze the prepayment, reinvestment and default risks, the tax consequences of an investment and the interaction of these factors should consider investing in the securities.

Interests of other persons in the receivables could reduce the funds available to make payments on your securities   

 

 

 

 

Financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code will be filed reflecting the sale of the receivables by CarMax Auto to CarMax Funding and by CarMax Funding to the trust. Unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, CarMax Auto will mark its computer systems, and each of CarMax Auto and CarMax Funding will mark its accounting records, to reflect its sale of the receivables. However, unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the servicer will maintain possession of the receivables and will not segregate or mark the receivables as belonging to the trust. Additionally, another person could acquire an interest in a receivable that is superior to the trust’s interest by obtaining physical possession of that receivable without knowledge of the assignment of the receivable to the trust. If another person acquires an interest in a receivable that is superior to the trust’s interest, some or all of the collections on that receivable may not be available to make payment on your securities.

 

10


Table of Contents
Interests of other persons in the financed vehicles could reduce the funds available to make payments on your securities   

 

 

 

 

If another person acquires an interest in a vehicle financed by a receivable that is superior to the trust’s security interest in the vehicle, some or all of the proceeds from the sale of the vehicle may not be available to make payments on the securities.

     The trust’s security interest in the financed vehicles could be impaired for one or more of the following reasons:
    

•       CarMax Auto or CarMax Funding might fail to perfect its security interest in a financed vehicle;

    

•       another person may acquire an interest in a financed vehicle that is superior to the trust’s security interest through fraud, forgery, negligence or error because the servicer will not amend the certificates of title to the financed vehicles to identify the trust as the new secured party;

    

•       the trust may not have a security interest in the financed vehicles in certain states because the certificates of title to the financed vehicles will not be amended to reflect assignment of the security interest to the trust;

    

•       holders of some types of liens, such as tax liens or mechanics’ liens, may have priority over the trust’s security interest; and

    

•       the trust may lose its security interest in vehicles confiscated by the government.

     CarMax Funding will be obligated to repurchase from the trust any receivable as to which a perfected security interest in favor of CarMax Auto in the related financed vehicle did not exist as of the date such receivable was transferred to the trust. However, CarMax Funding will not be obligated to repurchase a receivable if a perfected security interest in favor of CarMax Funding in the vehicle securing a receivable has not been perfected in the trust or if the security interest in a financed vehicle or the related receivable becomes impaired after the receivable is transferred to the trust. If a trust does not have a perfected security interest in a financed vehicle, its ability to realize on the vehicle following an event of a default under the related receivable may be adversely affected and some or all of the collections on that vehicle may not be available to make payment on your securities.
Consumer protection laws may reduce the funds available to make payments on your securities   

 

 

 

Federal and state consumer protection laws impose requirements upon creditors in connection with extensions of credit and collections on

 

11


Table of Contents
     retail installment loans and installment sale contracts. Some of these laws make an assignee of the loan or contract, such as a trust, liable to the obligor for any violation by the lender. Any liabilities of the trust under these laws could reduce the funds that the trust would otherwise have to make payments on your securities.
Only the assets of the trust are available to pay your securities   

 

 

The securities represent interests solely in a trust or indebtedness of a trust and will not be insured or guaranteed by CarMax Auto, CarMax Funding, any of their respective affiliates or, unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement, any other person or entity other than the trust. The only source of payment on your securities will be payments received on the receivables and, if and to the extent available, any credit or cash flow enhancement for the trust. Therefore, you must rely solely on the assets of the trust for repayment of your securities. If these assets are insufficient, you may suffer losses on your securities.

Amounts on deposit in any reserve account will be limited and subject to depletion   

 

 

 

The amount required to be on deposit in any reserve account will be limited. If the amounts in the reserve account are depleted as amounts are paid out to cover shortfalls in distributions of principal and interest on the securities, the trust will depend solely on collections on the receivables, including amounts recovered in connection with the repossession and sale of financed vehicles that secure defaulted receivables, and any other credit or cash flow enhancement to make payments on your securities. In addition, the minimum required balance in the reserve account may decrease as the outstanding principal balance of the receivables decreases.

Any credit support provided by financial instruments may be insufficient to protect you against losses   

 

 

 

 

Credit support for the securities may be provided through the use of financial instruments like swaps, interest rate caps, other interest rate protection agreements, letters of credit, credit or liquidity facilities, surety bonds, insurance policies regarding payment of the securities, guaranteed investment contracts, repurchase agreements, yield supplement agreements or other agreements with respect to third party payments. Credit support in this form is limited by the credit of the provider of the financial instrument and by its ability to make payments as and when required by the terms of the financial instrument. Any failure of the credit support provider to meet its obligations under the financial instrument could result in losses on the related securities. The terms of any financial instrument providing credit support for the securities may also impose limitations or conditions on when or in what circumstances it may be drawn on. Any form of credit support may apply only to certain classes of securities, may be limited in dollar amount, may be accessible only under some

Table of Contents
     circumstances, and may not provide protection against all risks of loss. The related prospectus supplement will describe the provider of any financial instrument supporting the securities and any conditions, limitations or risks material to the securityholders.
You may suffer losses upon a liquidation of the receivables if the proceeds of the liquidation are less than the amounts due on the outstanding securities   

 

 

 

 

 

Under certain circumstances described in this prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement, the receivables of a trust may be sold after the occurrence of an event of default under the related indenture. The related securityholders will suffer losses if the trust sells the receivables for less than the total amount due on its securities. We cannot assure you that sufficient funds would be available to repay those securityholders in full.

Subordination of certain securities may reduce payments to those securities   

 

 

 

To the extent specified in the related prospectus supplement, the rights of the holders of a class of securities to receive payments of interest and principal may be subordinated to the rights of the holders of one or more other classes of securities to receive such payments. Subordination may take one or more of the following forms:

    

•      interest payments on any distribution date on which interest is due may first be made to the more senior classes;

    

•      principal payments on the subordinated classes might not begin until principal of the more senior classes is repaid in full;

    

•      principal payments on the more senior classes may be made on a distribution date before interest payments on the subordinated classes are made; and

    

•      if the trustee sells the receivables, the net proceeds of that sale may be allocated first to pay principal and interest on the more senior classes.

     The timing and priority of payment, seniority, allocations of losses and method of determining payments on the respective classes of securities of any trust will be described in the related prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents
Prepayments on the receivables may adversely affect the average life of and rate of return on your     
securities   

You may not be able to reinvest the principal repaid to you at a rate of return that is equal to or greater than the rate of return on your securities. Faster than expected prepayments on the receivables may cause the trust to make payments on its securities earlier than expected. We cannot predict the effect of prepayments on the average life of your securities.

 

All receivables, by their terms, may be prepaid at any time. Prepayments include:

    

•       prepayments in whole or in part by the obligor;

    

•       liquidations due to default;

    

•       partial payments with proceeds from physical damage, credit life and disability insurance policies;

    

•       required purchases of receivables by the servicer or repurchases of receivables by CarMax Funding for specified breaches of their representations, warranties or covenants; and

    

•       an optional repurchase of a trust’s receivables by the servicer when their aggregate principal balance is 10% or less of the initial aggregate principal balance, or under such other circumstances as may be specified in the related prospectus supplement.

     A variety of economic, social and other factors will influence the rate of optional prepayments on the receivables and defaults.
     As a result of prepayments, the final payment of each class of securities is expected to occur prior to the final scheduled distribution date specified in the related prospectus supplement. If sufficient funds are not available to pay any class of securities in full on its final scheduled distribution date, an event of default will occur and final payment of that class of securities may occur later than scheduled.
     For more information regarding the timing of repayments of the securities, see “Maturity and Prepayment Considerations” in this prospectus.
You may suffer a loss on your securities if the servicer commingles collections on the receivables with its own funds   

 

 

 

 

To the extent specified in the related prospectus supplement, the servicer will be permitted to hold collections it receives from obligors on the receivables and the purchase price of receivables required to be repurchased from the trust until the day prior to the date on which the related distributions are made on the securities. During this time, the servicer may invest those amounts at its own risk and for its own

 

14


Table of Contents
     benefit and need not segregate them from its own funds. If the servicer is unable to pay these amounts to the trust on the distribution date, you might incur a loss on your securities.
     For more information about the servicer’s obligations regarding payments on the receivables, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Collections” in this prospectus.
The effective yield on your securities will be less than the stated interest rates applicable to your securities due to delays in payment   

 

 

 

 

The effective yields on your securities will be less than the yields otherwise produced by the interest rates applicable to your securities because the distribution of principal and interest that accrued on the underlying receivables in respect of any collection period will not be made until the related distribution date, which will not be earlier than the 15th day of the following month.

The senior class of securities controls removal of the servicer upon a default on its servicing obligations   

 

 

 

Generally, unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, the holders of a majority of a trust’s senior class of securities, or the applicable trustee acting on their behalf, can remove the servicer if the servicer:

    

•       does not deliver to the applicable trustee the available funds for application to a required payment after a grace period after notice or discovery:

    

•       defaults on a servicing obligation which materially and adversely affects the trust after a grace period after notice; or

    

•       initiates or becomes the subject of certain insolvency proceedings.

     Those holders may also waive a default by the servicer. The holders of any subordinate class of securities may not have any rights to participate in such determinations for so long as any of the more senior classes are outstanding, and the subordinate classes of securities may be adversely affected by determinations made by the more senior classes.
     For more information regarding control by the senior class of securities, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Events of Servicing Termination” in this prospectus.

Resignation or termination of CarMax Auto as servicer

could result in delays in payment

    
or losses on your securities    If CarMax Auto were to resign or be terminated as servicer, the processing of payments on the receivables and information relating to collections could be delayed, which could delay payments on your securities. In addition, if CarMax Auto were to resign or be terminated as servicer and there were a material interruption in collection activities, the collection rate on the receivables could decline, which could result in losses on your securities. CarMax Auto may resign as servicer under certain limited circumstances and may be terminated as servicer if it defaults on its servicing obligations.
     For more information about resignation or termination of the servicer, see “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Certain Matters Regarding the Servicer” and “—Events of Servicing Termination” in this prospectus..
Bankruptcy of CarMax Auto could result in delays in payment or losses on your securities   

 

 

 

If CarMax Auto were to become the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, you could experience losses or delays in payment on your securities. CarMax Auto will sell the receivables to CarMax Funding, and CarMax Funding will sell the receivables to the trust. However, if CarMax Auto is the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, the court in the bankruptcy proceeding could conclude that the sale of the receivables by CarMax Auto to CarMax Funding was not a true sale for bankruptcy purposes and that CarMax Auto still owns the receivables. The court also could conclude that CarMax Auto and CarMax Funding should be consolidated for bankruptcy purposes. If the court were to reach either of these conclusions, you could experience losses or delays in payments on your securities because:

    

•       the indenture trustee will not be able to exercise remedies against CarMax Auto on your behalf without permission from the court;

    

•       the court may require the indenture trustee to accept property in exchange for the receivables that is of less value than the receivables;

    

•       tax or other government liens on CarMax Auto property that arose before the transfer of the receivables to the trust will be paid from the collections on the receivables before the collections are used to make payments on your securities; and

    

•       the indenture trustee may not have a perfected security interest in one or more of the vehicles securing the receivables or cash collections held by CarMax Auto at the

 

16


Table of Contents
    

time that a bankruptcy proceeding begins.

     CarMax Auto and CarMax Funding have taken steps in structuring the transactions described in this prospectus to minimize the risk that a court would conclude that the sale of the receivables to CarMax Funding was not a “true sale” or that CarMax Auto and CarMax Funding should be consolidated for bankruptcy purposes.
     For more information regarding bankruptcy considerations, see “Some Important Legal Aspects of the Receivables—Certain Bankruptcy Considerations” in this prospectus.
Ratings of the securities are limited and may be reduced or     
withdrawn    At the initial issuance of the securities of a trust, at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization will rate the offered securities in one of the four highest rating categories or in the categories otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement. A rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell securities, and it does not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. The ratings of the offered securities address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on the securities according to their terms. We cannot assure you that a rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating agency will not lower or withdraw its rating if, in its judgment, circumstances in the future so warrant. A reduction or withdrawal of an offered security’s rating would adversely affect its value.
Terrorist attacks and conflicts involving the United States military could result in delays in payment or losses on your     
securities    Any effect that the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and on the Pentagon in the United States on September 11, 2001, the conflict in and occupation of Iraq and the rising tensions in other regions such as Korea may have on the performance of the receivables is unclear, but there could be an adverse effect on general economic conditions, consumer confidence and general market liquidity. Investors should consider the possible effects on delinquency, default and prepayment experience of the receivables. In particular, under the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940, members of the military on active duty, including reservists, who have entered into an obligation, such as a retail installment sale contract or installment loan for the purchase of a vehicle, before entering into military service may be entitled to reductions in interest rates to 6% and a stay of foreclosure and similar actions. In addition, pursuant to the laws of various states, under certain circumstances residents thereof called into active duty with the National Guard or the reserves can apply to a court to delay payments on retail installment sale contracts or installment loans such as the receivables. No information can be provided as to the number of receivables that may be affected. If an obligor’s obligation to repay a

 

17


Table of Contents
     receivable is reduced, adjusted or extended, the servicer will not be required to advance such amounts. Any resulting shortfalls in interest or principal will reduce the amount available for distribution on the securities.
     For more information regarding the effect of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940, see “Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables—Consumer Protection Laws” and “—Other Matters” in this prospectus.
The securities will not be listed on an exchange and this may make it difficult for you to sell your securities or to obtain your desired price   

 

 

 

 

 

 

The trust will not apply to list the securities on an exchange or quote them in the automated quotation system of a registered securities association. The liquidity of the securities will therefore likely be less than what it would be in the event that they were so listed or quoted, and there may be no secondary market for the securities. As a result, you may not be able to sell your securities when you want to do so, or you may not be able to obtain the price that you wish to receive.

     See “Risk Factors—You may have difficulty selling your securities or obtaining your desired sale price” in this prospectus.

Table of Contents

Capitalized terms used in this prospectus are defined in the Glossary of Terms beginning on page 87.

 

The Trusts

 

The Seller will establish a separate Delaware statutory trust or common law trust to issue each series of notes and/or certificates. Each trust will be established for the transactions described in this prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement. If a trust is a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the related prospectus supplement will so state.

 

The terms of each series of notes or certificates issued by each trust and additional information concerning the assets of each trust and any applicable credit or cash flow enhancement will be set forth in a prospectus supplement.

 

The Trust Property

 

The property of each trust will include a pool of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts or motor vehicle retail installment loans originated by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto, which contracts or loans will be secured by security interests in Financed Vehicles consisting of new and used motor vehicles, and, except as otherwise set forth in the related prospectus supplement, all payments received under such contracts or loans after the related Cutoff Date. On or prior to the Closing Date for each trust, CarMax Auto will sell the receivables to the Seller and the Seller, in turn, will sell the receivables to the trust.

 

To the extent provided in the related prospectus supplement, CarMax Auto will sell Subsequent Receivables to the Seller and the Seller, in turn, will sell the Subsequent Receivables to the trust as frequently as daily during the related Funding Period. A trust will purchase any Subsequent Receivables with amounts deposited in a pre-funding account. Up to 50% of the net proceeds from the sale of the securities issued by a trust may be deposited into a pre-funding account for the purchase of Subsequent Receivables. With respect to any trust that is to be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the Funding Period, if any, will not exceed the period of 90 days from and after the Closing Date and, with respect to any other trust, will not exceed the period of one year from and after the Closing Date.

 

The property of each trust will also include:

 

    security interests in the related Financed Vehicles;

 

    the rights to proceeds, if any, from claims on certain theft, physical damage, credit life or credit disability insurance policies, if any, covering the Financed Vehicles or the related obligors;

 

    CarMax Auto’s and the Seller’s rights to certain documents and instruments relating to the receivables;

 

    amounts as from time to time may be held in one or more accounts maintained for the trust;

 

    any credit or cash flow enhancement specified in the prospectus supplement;

 

    certain payments and proceeds with respect to the receivables held by the Servicer;

 

    certain rebates of premiums and other amounts relating to certain insurance policies and other items financed under the receivables; and

 

19


Table of Contents
    any and all proceeds of the above items.

 

If the trust issues notes, the trust’s rights and benefits with respect to the property of the trust will be assigned to the indenture trustee for the benefit of the noteholders.

 

If the property of a trust includes motor vehicle retail installment loans, we will provide more specific information about the origination of the loans in the related prospectus supplement. The property of a trust may include a pool of notes secured by receivables and the related Financed Vehicles and all proceeds generated by the receivables and the Financed Vehicles. If the property of a trust includes secured notes, we will provide more specific information about the origination and servicing of the secured notes and the consequences of including secured notes in a trust in the related prospectus supplement.

 

The Servicer

 

The Servicer will service the receivables, either directly or through subservicers, held by each trust and will receive fees for its services. To facilitate the servicing of the receivables, each trustee will authorize the Servicer to retain physical possession of the receivables held by each trust and other documents relating thereto as custodian for each trust. Due to administrative burden and expense, the certificates of title for the Financed Vehicles will not be amended to reflect the sale and assignment of the security interests in the Financed Vehicles to each trust. See “Risk Factors—Interests of other persons in the receivables could reduce the funds available to make payments on your securities” and “Description of the Receivables Transfer and Servicing Agreements—Sale and Assignment of Receivables”.

 

The Trustees

 

The trustee for each trust and, if notes are issued, the indenture trustee, will be specified in the related prospectus supplement. The liability of each trustee in connection with the issuance and sale of the securities will be limited solely to the express obligations of the trustee set forth in the applicable trust agreement, pooling and servicing agreement or indenture. Except as otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement, a trustee may resign at any time, in which event the administrator of the trust, in the case of a trust agreement, or the Servicer, in case of a pooling and servicing agreement or indenture, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee. The administrator of each trust may also remove a trustee if:

 

    the trustee ceases to be eligible to continue as trustee under the applicable trust agreement, pooling and servicing agreement or indenture; or

 

    the trustee becomes insolvent.

 

In either of these circumstances, the administrator or the Servicer must appoint a successor trustee. If a trustee resigns or is removed, the resignation or removal and appointment of a successor trustee will not become effective until the successor trustee accepts its appointment.

 

You will find the addresses of the principal offices of the trust and each trustee in the prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

The Receivables

 

Criteria for Selecting the Receivables. The receivables to be held by each trust must satisfy various criteria, including that each receivable:

 

    is secured by a Financed Vehicle that, as of the Cutoff Date, has not been repossessed without reinstatement;

 

    was originated in the United States;

 

    has a fixed or variable interest rate;

 

    provides for level monthly payments that fully amortize the amount financed over its original term to maturity or provides for a different type of amortization described in the related prospectus supplement; and

 

    satisfies the other criteria, if any, set forth in the related prospectus supplement.

 

If so specified in the related prospectus supplement, a trust may include Subsequent Receivables. Subsequent Receivables may be originated using credit criteria different from those which were applied to the receivables transferred to the trust on the related Closing Date and may be of a different credit quality and seasoning. In addition, following the transfer of Subsequent Receivables to the trust, the characteristics of the entire pool of receivables included in the trust may vary significantly from those of the receivables transferred to the trust on the Closing Date. If so specified in the related prospectus supplement, the receivables may include loans made to borrowers whose credit histories show previous financial difficulties or who otherwise have insufficient credit histories to meet the credit standards imposed by most traditional motor vehicle financing sources.

 

This prospectus and the related prospectus supplement describe CarMax’s underwriting procedures and guidelines, including the type of information reviewed in respect of each applicant, and the Servicer’s servicing procedures, including the steps customarily taken in respect of delinquent receivables and the maintenance of physical damage insurance. See “CarMax”.

 

No selection procedures believed by CarMax Auto to be adverse to the holders of securities of any series were or will be used in selecting the receivables for each trust. Terms of the receivables included in each trust which are material to investors will be described in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Simple Interest Receivables. Except as otherwise set forth in the related prospectus supplement, the receivables in each trust will be Simple Interest Receivables. Each monthly installment under a Simple Interest Receivable consists of an amount of interest which is calculated on the basis of the outstanding principal balance multiplied by the stated contract rate and further multiplied by the period elapsed (as a fraction of a calendar year) since the last payment of interest was made. As payments are received under a Simple Interest Receivable, the amount received is applied first, to interest accrued to the date of payment, then to any applicable late charges, then to principal due on the date of payment, then to any other fees due under the receivable and then to reduce further the outstanding principal balance of the receivable. Accordingly, if an obligor on a Simple Interest Receivable pays a fixed monthly installment before its scheduled due date:

 

    the portion of the payment allocable to interest for the period since the preceding payment was made will be less than it would have been had the payment been made as scheduled; and

 

21


Table of Contents
    the portion of the payment applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance will be correspondingly greater.

 

Conversely, if an obligor pays a fixed monthly installment after its scheduled due date:

 

    the portion of the payment allocable to interest for the period since the preceding payment was made will be greater than it would have been had the payment been made as scheduled; and

 

    the portion of the payment applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance will be correspondingly less.

 

In either case, the obligor under a Simple Interest Receivable pays fixed monthly installments until the final scheduled payment date, at which time the amount of the final installment is increased or decreased as necessary to repay the then outstanding principal balance. If a Simple Interest Receivable is prepaid, the obligor is required to pay interest only to the date of prepayment.

 

If the receivables included in a trust are not Simple Interest Receivables, the related prospectus supplement will describe the method of calculating interest on the receivables.

 

We Will Provide More Specific Information About the Receivables in the Prospectus Supplement. Information with respect to each pool of receivables included in a trust will be set forth in the related prospectus supplement, including, to the extent appropriate:

 

    the portion of the receivables pool secured by new Financed Vehicles and by used Financed Vehicles;

 

    the aggregate principal balance of the related receivables;

 

    the average principal balance of the related receivables and the range of principal balances;

 

    the number of receivables in the receivables pool;

 

    the geographic distribution of the receivables in the receivables pool;

 

    the average original amount financed and the range of original amounts financed;

 

    the weighted average contract rate of interest and the range of such rates;

 

    the weighted average original term and the range of original terms;

 

    the weighted average remaining term and the range of remaining terms;

 

    the scheduled weighted average life; and

 

    the distribution by stated contract rate of interest.

 

Maturity and Prepayment Considerations

 

The weighted average lives of the securities of any trust will generally be influenced by the rate at which the principal balances of the receivables held by the trust are paid, which payment may be in the

 

22


Table of Contents

form of scheduled amortization or prepayments. “Prepayments” for these purposes includes the following circumstances:

 

    prepayments by obligors, who may repay at any time without penalty;

 

    the Seller may be required to repurchase a receivable sold to the trust if certain breaches of representations and warranties occur and the receivable is materially and adversely affected by the breach;

 

    the Servicer may be obligated to purchase a receivable from the trust if certain breaches of covenants occur or if the Servicer extends or modifies the terms of a receivable beyond the Collection Period preceding the final scheduled Distribution Date for the securities specified in the related prospectus supplement;

 

    partial prepayments, including those related to rebates of extended warranty contract costs and insurance premiums;

 

    liquidations of the receivables due to default; and

 

    partial prepayments from proceeds from physical damage, credit life and disability insurance policies.

 

In light of the above considerations, we cannot assure you as to the amount of principal payments to be made on the securities of a trust on each Distribution Date since that amount will depend, in part, on the amount of principal collected on the trust’s receivables during the applicable Collection Period. Any reinvestment risks resulting from a faster or slower incidence of prepayment of receivables will be borne entirely by the securityholders. The related prospectus supplement may set forth certain additional information with respect to the maturity and prepayment considerations applicable to the receivables and the securities of the trust.

 

The rate of prepayments on the receivables may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other factors, including the fact that an obligor may not sell or transfer its Financed Vehicle without CarMax Auto’s consent. These factors may also include unemployment, servicing decisions, seasoning of receivables, destruction of vehicles by accident, sales of vehicles and market interest rates. A predominant factor affecting the prepayment of a large group of receivables is the difference between the interest rates on the receivables and prevailing market interest rates. If the prevailing market interest rates were to fall significantly below the interest rates borne by the receivables, the rate of prepayments and refinancings would be expected to increase. Conversely, if the prevailing market interest rates were to increase significantly above the interest rates borne by the receivables, the rate of prepayments and refinancings would be expected to decrease.

 

The related prospectus supplement may set forth certain additional information with respect to the maturity and prepayment considerations applicable to the receivables and the securities of the trust.

 

Pool Factors and Trading Information

 

The Servicer will provide to you in each report which it delivers to you a factor which you can use to compute your portion of the principal amount outstanding on the notes or certificates.

 

23


Table of Contents

General

 

Calculation of the Factor For Your Class of Securities. The Servicer will compute a separate factor for each class of notes and certificates issued. The factor for each class of securities will be a seven-digit decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each distribution with respect to the related class of notes or certificates indicating the remaining outstanding principal amount of that class of securities, as of the applicable Distribution Date. The Servicer will compute the factor after giving effect to payments to be made on such Distribution Date, as a fraction of the initial outstanding principal amount of the related class of notes or certificates.

 

Your Portion of the Outstanding Amount of the Securities. For each security you own, your portion of that class of notes or certificates, as applicable, will be the product of:

 

    the original denomination of your security; and

 

    the factor relating to your class of securities computed by the Servicer in the manner described above.

 

The Pool Factors Will Decline as the Trust Makes Payments on the Securities

 

The factor for each class of notes and certificates, if any, will initially be 1.0000000. The factors will then decline to reflect reductions, as applicable, in:

 

    the outstanding principal balance of the applicable class of notes; or

 

    the outstanding principal balance of the applicable class of certificates.

 

These amounts will be reduced over time as a result of scheduled payments, prepayments, purchases of the receivables by the Seller or the Servicer and liquidations of the receivables.

 

Additional Information

 

The noteholders and the certificateholders, as applicable, will receive reports on or about each Distribution Date concerning:

 

    with respect to the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date, payments received on the related receivables, the outstanding principal balance of the related receivables, factors for each related class of notes and certificates, as applicable, and various other items of information; and

 

    with respect to the second Collection Period preceding such Distribution Date, as applicable, amounts allocated or distributed on the preceding Distribution Date and any reconciliation of those amounts with information previously provided by the Servicer.

 

In addition, securityholders of record during any calendar year will be furnished information for tax reporting purposes not later than the latest date permitted by law. See “Certain Information Regarding the Securities—Reports to Securityholders”.

 

24


Table of Contents

Use of Proceeds

 

Unless the related prospectus supplement provides for other applications, the net proceeds from the sale of the securities of a trust will be applied by the trust:

 

    to purchase the receivables from the Seller;

 

    if the trust has a pre-funding account, to make the deposit into that account;

 

    if the trust has a yield supplement account, to make the deposit into that account;

 

    if the trust has a reserve account, to make the initial deposit into that account; and

 

    for any other purposes specified in the prospectus supplement.

 

The Seller will use that portion of the net proceeds paid to it with respect to any trust to purchase receivables from CarMax Auto and to pay for certain expenses incurred in connection with the purchase of the receivables and the sale of the securities. The trust may also issue certain classes of securities to the Seller in partial payment for the receivables.

 

The Seller

 

The Seller was formed in the State of Delaware on August 6, 2003 as a limited liability company. The sole equity member of the Seller is CarMax Auto. The Seller maintains its principal executive offices at 4900 Cox Road, Suite 200, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060. Its telephone number is (804) 935-4512.

 

The Seller was organized principally for the purpose of purchasing receivables from CarMax Auto in connection with its activities as a subsidiary of CarMax Auto. The Seller has not and will not engage in any activity other than acquiring, owning, holding, selling, transferring, assigning, pledging or otherwise dealing in receivables secured by the Financed Vehicles or originating one or more grantor or owner trusts owning receivables secured by the Financed Vehicles. The Seller anticipates that, as seller, it will acquire receivables to be included in each trust from CarMax Auto in privately negotiated transactions. Neither the Seller nor any of the Seller’s affiliates will insure or guarantee the receivables or the securities of any series.

 

In structuring these transactions the Seller has taken steps intended to ensure that the voluntary or involuntary application for relief by CarMax Auto under the Bankruptcy Code or similar state laws will not cause the assets and liabilities of the Seller to be consolidated with those of CarMax Auto. See “Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables—Certain Bankruptcy Considerations” for more information.

 

CarMax

 

General

 

CarMax is a leading retailer of used and new motor vehicles in the United States. CarMax opened its first store in Richmond, Virginia in September 1993. CarMax Auto was incorporated in Virginia and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CarMax, Inc. CarMax Auto formerly was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Circuit City Stores, Inc., a leading national retailer of brand-name consumer electronics, personal computers and entertainment software. Circuit City Stores spun-off CarMax to its

 

25


Table of Contents

shareholders in a transaction completed on October 1, 2002. CarMax was the first used vehicle retailer to offer a large selection of quality used vehicles at low, fixed prices using a customer-friendly sales process in an attractive, modern sales facility. CarMax has designed a strategy to better serve the market by addressing the major sources of dissatisfaction with traditional used car retailing and to maximize operating efficiencies with sophisticated systems and standardized operating procedures and store formats.

 

CarMax purchases and sells used motor vehicles at each of its stores and sells new motor vehicles at certain of its stores under franchise agreements with various manufacturers. In addition, CarMax provides its customers with a full range of related products and services, including the financing of vehicle purchases, the sale of extended service contracts and the sale of automotive electronic products. In general, the used motor vehicles offered by CarMax are one to six years old with fewer than 60,000 miles. Each store also offers a limited selection of used motor vehicles that are more than six years old or have more than 60,000 miles. All used vehicles are thoroughly reconditioned to meet high mechanical, electrical, safety and cosmetic standards and must pass a comprehensive inspection before being offered for sale. All inspections are performed by qualified service technicians, most of whom are certified by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence.

 

CarMax acquires a significant portion of its used-vehicle inventory through its appraisal process in which it appraises and makes an offer to purchase any properly documented vehicle from the public. CarMax also acquires a significant portion of its used vehicles through auctions and, to a lesser extent, directly from other sources, including wholesalers, dealers and fleet owners. The CarMax management information system includes a database that is the central feature of CarMax’s inventory management and control system. This system tracks each vehicle throughout the sales process. Using the information provided by this system and applying sophisticated statistical modeling techniques enable CarMax to optimize its inventory mix and display by store, anticipate future inventory needs at each store, evaluate sales consultant performance and refine its vehicle pricing strategy. CarMax maintains strict inventory aging policies under which it disposes of any vehicle that has not been sold at retail within specified periods.

 

CarMax is not a party to any legal proceeding that could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the trust or the interests of the noteholders or the certificateholders, if any.

 

Certain information concerning CarMax Auto’s experience with respect to its portfolio of receivables, including previously sold receivables which CarMax Auto continues to service, will be set forth in each prospectus supplement. We cannot assure you that the delinquency, repossession and net loss experience on any pool of receivables transferred to a trust will be comparable to that information.

 

CarMax Auto Finance

 

CarMax offers on-site financing to its customers through CarMax Auto Finance (formerly known as First North American Credit), the financing unit of CarMax Auto, and through third parties. CarMax began offering on-site financing to its customers through CarMax Auto Finance in September 1993 and currently originates installment sale contracts at all of its stores.

 

Underwriting Procedures

 

CarMax Auto Finance credit applications are accepted at all CarMax locations. Each application requires that the applicant provide current information regarding his or her employment history, bank accounts, income, debts, credit references and other factors that are relevant to an assessment of creditworthiness. This information is entered into a local terminal and transmitted electronically to

Table of Contents

CarMax Auto Finance for review. In addition, CarMax Auto Finance obtains one or more credit reports from major credit reporting agencies summarizing each applicant’s credit history and payment habits, including such items as open accounts, delinquent payments, bankruptcies, repossessions, lawsuits and judgments. CarMax Auto Finance uses credit scoring models developed by Fair Isaac & Co. to assess objectively an applicant’s creditworthiness and to help CarMax Auto Finance quantify credit risk and implement risk-adjusted pricing. The credit scoring models are statistically derived from prior credit granting experience and analyze predictive information from the credit applications and credit bureau reports to generate a numerical credit score for each applicant. This numerical credit score indicates the risk associated with extending credit to the applicant.

 

The majority of all credit applications are accepted or declined automatically. If an applicant meets the minimum credit score requirements using the credit scoring models, the related application is immediately approved. If the applicant does not meet these requirements, the related application is declined. The credit scoring models are also used to identify irregularities in an application or credit file. If CarMax Auto Finance receives an application deemed to be irregular or incomplete or an applicant requests that an application be manually reviewed, that application will be reviewed by an experienced credit underwriter. CarMax Auto Finance’s credit underwriters manually approve or decline applications in accordance with credit policies established by senior management.

 

Each installment sale contract originated by CarMax in connection with the sale of a new or used motor vehicle is secured by that vehicle. The maximum loan amount for each financed vehicle is determined based upon the creditworthiness of the related obligor and is 125% of the selling price of the financed vehicle, including sales tax, license fees and title fees. In most cases, the selling price does not exceed the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, in the case of a new vehicle, or the “average blue book value” published by Kelley Blue Book Co., a standard reference source for dealers in used cars, in the case of a used vehicle. The amount financed is often less than the maximum loan amount, depending upon the credit needs of the obligor. Furthermore, in each case where the amount financed exceeds the value of the related financed vehicle, CarMax Auto Finance has determined that the creditworthiness of the related obligor supports the additional loan amount. CarMax Auto Finance also finances service and extended warranty contracts purchased with respect to financed vehicles.

 

CarMax Auto Finance believes that the resale value of a new vehicle purchased by an obligor will decline below the manufacturer’s suggested retail price and, in some cases, may decline for a period of time below the principal balance outstanding on the related installment sale contract. CarMax Auto Finance also believes that the resale value of a used vehicle purchased by an obligor will decline, but believes that the amount of the decline, expressed as a percentage of the resale value of the vehicle at the time of purchase, will be less than the amount of the decline, expressed as a percentage of the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, in the resale value of a new vehicle. CarMax Auto Finance regularly reviews the quality of its installment sale contracts and periodically conducts quality audits to ensure compliance with its established policies and procedures.

 

Collection Procedures

 

CarMax Auto Finance measures delinquencies by the number of days elapsed from the date a payment is due under an installment sale contract. CarMax Auto Finance considers a receivable to be delinquent when the related obligor fails to make a scheduled payment on or before the related due date. If a partial payment is received that is less than the regular monthly payment by more than a nominal amount determined by senior management and that deficiency is not cured on or before the related due date, the account will be considered delinquent. CarMax Auto Finance mails a computer-generated delinquency notice to each delinquent obligor before the related receivable becomes 12 days delinquent.

 

27


Table of Contents

CarMax Auto Finance also uses an automated delinquency monitoring system, which assigns delinquent receivables to different categories of collection priority based on the number of days of delinquency.

 

CarMax Auto Finance manages its delinquencies using software that offers the ability to alter collections strategy according to individual account behavior and historical performance. Account risk is determined through an analysis of behavioral factors, such as credit risk at the initiation of the loan, the number of payments made, the level of historical delinquency and the number of times the obligor has failed to keep payment arrangements. CarMax Auto Finance reviews its collections strategy on a daily basis and uses optimization techniques to evaluate its collections strategy.

 

CarMax Auto Finance’s collection efforts are divided into specific areas depending upon the level of delinquency. Accounts that are fewer than 30 days past due are assigned to the Early Collections Group. The collectors in this group attempt to contact delinquent obligors by telephone or letter based on the level of delinquency and the history of the account. In addition, CarMax Auto Finance’s customer service representatives are trained to handle accounts that are fewer than 30 days past due when receiving incoming calls. Accounts that reach a level of delinquency of greater than 30 days past due are assigned to the Late Collections Group, where they are reviewed by senior-level collectors who analyze each account to determine collateral risk. If a collector is unable to confirm payment on an account and determines that the collateral securing the account is at risk, the collector will recommend repossession of the related vehicle. All repossession recommendations must be reviewed and accepted by a member of management before being forwarded to the repossession department in the Specialty Collections Group.

 

Once a vehicle is in CarMax Auto Finance’s possession, the related obligor has a redemption period during which he may redeem the vehicle by paying off the related receivable in full or by paying off all past due amounts. In either case, the obligor is also required to pay to CarMax Auto Finance the reasonable expenses incurred by CarMax Auto Finance in repossessing, holding and preparing the financed vehicle for disposition and arranging for its sale. In those states in which the UCC governs the redemption of financed vehicles, the obligor must be given reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any proposed public sale of a repossessed vehicle, or the date after which any proposed private sale of a repossessed vehicle may be held, and may redeem the vehicle at any time prior to sale. In most states in which laws other than the UCC govern the redemption of financed vehicles, the obligor must be given a specified period of time, usually between 10 and 30 days, to redeem a repossessed vehicle. At the conclusion of the redemption period, CarMax Auto Finance sells the vehicle and any remaining principal balance is charged off. All repossession activities are carried out in accordance with applicable state law and related procedures adopted by CarMax Auto Finance. Other departments in the Specialty Collections Group include recovery collections, remarketing, skip tracing, legal and bankruptcy.

 

In general, CarMax Auto Finance charges off a receivable on the earliest of:

 

    the last business day of the month during which any payment, or any part of any payment, due under the receivable becomes 120 days or more delinquent, whether or not CarMax Auto Finance has repossessed the motor vehicle securing the receivable;

 

    if CarMax Auto Finance has repossessed the motor vehicle securing the receivable, the last business day of the month during which the motor vehicle is liquidated; and

 

    the last business day of the month during which CarMax Auto Finance determines in accordance with its customary practices that the receivable is uncollectible.

 

CarMax Auto Finance may extend the due date for a current or past due payment for up to 30 days if the related installment sale contract has been in existence for at least six

 

28


Table of Contents

months and at least six monthly payments have been made. CarMax Auto Finance will only extend the due date for a payment if, after giving effect to such extension and to any payments made or any other extension granted in connection therewith, the related contract will be returned to current status. The total number of extensions an obligor may receive equals the number of years in the original term of the related installment sale contract, except that no more than two extensions will be granted during any 12-month period. In general, if an installment sale contract has been confirmed or reaffirmed in a bankruptcy proceeding and the related obligor has thereafter made three consecutive monthly payments, CarMax Auto Finance will return the contract to current status. All exceptions to the extension policy must be approved by CarMax Auto Finance’s senior management.

 

Physical Damage Insurance

 

In general, each installment sale contract requires the related obligor to obtain physical damage insurance covering loss or damage to the related financed vehicle. There can be no assurances, however, that each Financed Vehicle will at all times be covered by physical damage insurance.

The material terms of these documents are described throughout this prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement. Each prospectus supplement for a series will describe any material provisions of these documents as used in the related series that differ in a material way from the provisions described in this prospectus.

 

A form of each of these principal documents has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The summaries of the principal documents in this prospectus do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of those principal documents.

 

Certain Information Regarding the Securities

 

General

 

The prospectus supplement will describe:

 

    the timing, amount and priority of payments of principal and interest on each class of securities;

 

    the interest rate for each class of securities or the formula for determining the interest rate;

 

    the method for determining the amount of principal payments on each class of securities;

 

    the priority of the application of the trust’s available funds to its expenses and payments on its securities; and

 

    the method for allocating losses among each class of securities.

 

The rights of any class of securities to receive payments may be senior or subordinate to other classes of securities. A security may be entitled to:

 

    principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or no interest payments;

 

    interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no principal payments; or

 

    residual cash flow remaining after all other classes have been paid.

 

Each class of securities entitled to receive interest payments may bear interest at a fixed rate of interest or a floating rate of interest as more fully described in this prospectus and in the related

 

31


Table of Contents

prospectus supplement. If a class of securities is redeemable, the prospectus supplement will describe when they may be redeemed and at what price. The aggregate initial principal amount of the securities issued by a trust may be greater than, equal to or less than the aggregate initial principal amount of the receivables held by that trust.

 

Payments of principal and interest on any class of securities will be made on a pro rata basis among all the securityholders of that class. If the amount of funds available to make a payment on a class is less than the required payment, the holders of the securities of that class will receive their pro rata share of the available amount. A series may provide for a liquidity facility or similar arrangement that permits one or more classes of securities to be paid in planned amounts on specified Distribution Dates.

 

Fixed Rate Securities

 

Each class of fixed rate securities will bear interest at the applicable per annum interest rate or pass-through rate, as the case may be, specified in the related prospectus supplement. Interest on each class of fixed rate securities may be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months or on such other day count basis as is specified in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Floating Rate Securities

 

Each class of floating rate securities will bear interest for each applicable interest accrual period described in the prospectus supplement at a rate determined by reference to a base rate of interest, plus or minus the number of basis points specified in the prospectus supplement, if any, or multiplied by the percentage specified in the prospectus supplement, if any, or as otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement.

 

The base rate of interest for any floating rate securities will be based on a London interbank offered rate, commercial paper rates, Federal funds rates, United States government treasury securities rates, negotiable certificates of deposit rates or another rate or rates set forth in the related prospectus supplement.

 

A class of floating rate securities may also have either or both of the following (in each case expressed as a rate per annum):

 

    a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest accrual period; provided, that the interest rate applicable to any class of floating rate securities will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law; and

 

    a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest accrual period.

 

Each trust issuing floating rate securities may appoint a calculation agent to calculate interest rates on each class of its floating rate securities. The prospectus supplement will identify the calculation agent, if any, for each class of floating rate securities, which may be either the trustee or indenture trustee with respect to the trust. All determinations of interest by a calculation agent will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holders of the floating rate securities. All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a floating rate security will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward.

Book-Entry Registration

 

The Trusts May Use Book-Entry Registration Instead of Issuing Definitive Securities. Except for the securities, if any, of a trust retained by the Seller, each class of securities offered through this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement may initially be represented by one or more certificates registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC’s nominee, except as set forth below. The securities will be available for purchase in the denominations specified in the related prospectus supplement and may be available for purchase in book-entry form only. Accordingly, Cede & Co. is expected to be the holder of record of any class of securities issued in book-entry form. If a class of securities is issued in book-entry form, unless and until Definitive Securities are issued under the limited circumstances described in this prospectus or in the related prospectus supplement, you, as an owner of securities, will not be entitled to receive a physical certificate representing your interest in the securities of that class. Beneficial owners will not be recognized by the indenture trustee as “holders”, as such term will be used in the indenture. Beneficial owners will only be permitted to exercise the rights of holders indirectly through DTC and its participants, as further described below.

 

If a class of securities is issued in book-entry form, all references in this prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement to actions by holders of that class of securities refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its participating organizations and all references in this prospectus and in the related prospectus supplement to distributions, notices, reports and statements to securityholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of the related securities for distribution to the related securityholders in accordance with DTC’s procedures with respect thereto. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

 

The prospectus supplement will specify whether the holders of the notes or certificates of the trust may hold their respective securities as book-entry securities.

 

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all senior securities deposited by participants with DTC will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. The deposit of senior securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. will not change beneficial ownership. DTC will have no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners, and its records will reflect only the identity of the participants to whose accounts such senior securities are credited, which may or may not be the ultimate owners. Participants and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

 

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to participants, by participants to indirect participants and by participants and indirect participants to owners, will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

 

You may hold your securities through DTC in the United States, Clearstream or the Euroclear System in Europe or in any manner described in the related prospectus supplement. The global securities will be tradeable as home market instruments in both the European and United States domestic markets. Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

 

Initial Settlement of the Global Securities. All global securities will be held in book-entry form by DTC in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC. Investors’ interests in the global securities will be represented through financial institutions acting on their behalf as direct and indirect participants in DTC. As a result, Clearstream and Euroclear will hold positions on behalf of their customers or

 

33


Table of Contents

participants through their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold the positions in accounts as DTC participants.

 

Investors electing to hold their global securities through DTC will follow the settlement practices that apply to United States corporate debt obligations. Investor securities custody accounts will be credited with their holdings against payment in same-day funds on the settlement date.

 

Investors electing to hold their global securities through Clearstream or Euroclear accounts will follow the settlement procedures that apply to conventional eurobonds, except that there will be no temporary global security and no “lock-up” or restricted period. Global securities will be credited to the securities custody accounts on the settlement date against payment in same-day funds.

 

Except as required by law, none of the administrator, if any, the applicable trustee or the applicable indenture trustee, if any, will have any liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of the securities of any trust held by DTC’s nominee, DTC, Clearstream or Euroclear or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.

 

Secondary Market Trading of the Global Securities. Since the purchaser determines the place of delivery, it is important to establish at the time of the trade where both the purchaser’s and seller’s accounts are located to ensure that settlement can be made on the desired value date.

 

Trading Between DTC Participants. Secondary market trading between DTC participants will be settled using the procedures applicable to United States corporate debt obligations in same-day funds.

 

Trading Between Clearstream Customers and/or Euroclear Participants. Secondary market trading between Clearstream Customers or Euroclear participants will be settled using the procedures applicable to conventional eurobonds in same-day funds.

 

Trading Between DTC Seller and Clearstream or Euroclear Purchaser. When global securities are to be transferred from the account of a DTC participant to the account of a Clearstream Customer or a Euroclear participant, the purchaser will send instructions to Clearstream or Euroclear through a Clearstream Customer or Euroclear participant at least one business day prior to settlement. Clearstream or Euroclear will instruct the respective depositary, as the case may be, to receive the global securities against payment. Payment will include interest accrued on the global securities from and including the last coupon Distribution Date to and excluding the settlement date. Payment will then be made by the respective depositary to the DTC participant’s account against delivery of the global securities. After settlement has been completed, the global securities will be credited to the respective clearing system and by the clearing system, in accordance with its usual procedures, to the Clearstream Customer’s or Euroclear participant’s account. The global securities credit will appear the next day (European time) and the cash debit will be back-valued to, and the interest on the global securities will accrue from, the value date (which would be the preceding day when settlement occurred in New York). If settlement is not completed on the intended value date (that is, the trade fails), the Clearstream or Euroclear cash debit will be valued instead as of the actual settlement date.

 

Clearstream Customers and Euroclear participants will need to make available to the respective clearing systems the funds necessary to process same-day funds settlement. The most direct means of doing this is to pre-position funds for settlement, either from cash on hand or existing lines of credit, as they would for any settlement occurring within Clearstream or Euroclear. Under this approach, they may take on credit exposure to Clearstream or Euroclear until the global securities are credited to their accounts one day later.

 

34


Table of Contents

As an alternative, if Clearstream or Euroclear has extended a line of credit to them, Clearstream Customers or Euroclear participants can elect not to pre-position funds and allow that credit line to be drawn upon to finance settlement. Under this procedure, Clearstream Customers or Euroclear participants purchasing global securities would incur overdraft charges for one day, assuming they cleared the overdraft when the global securities were credited to their accounts. However, interest on the global securities would accrue from the value date. Therefore, in many cases the investment income on the global securities earned during that one-day period may substantially reduce or offset the amount of any overdraft charges, although this result will depend on each Clearstream Customer’s or Euroclear participant’s particular cost of funds.

 

Since the settlement is taking place during New York business hours, DTC participants can employ their usual procedures for sending global securities to the respective depositary for the benefit of Clearstream Customers or Euroclear participants. The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC seller on the settlement date. Thus, to the DTC participant a cross-market transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC participants.

 

Trading Between Clearstream or Euroclear Seller and DTC Purchaser. Due to time zone differences in their favor, Clearstream Customers and Euroclear participants may employ their customary procedures for transactions in which global securities are to be transferred by the respective clearing system, through the respective depositaries, to a DTC participant. The seller will send instructions to Clearstream or Euroclear through a Clearstream Customer or Euroclear participant at least one business day prior to settlement. In these cases, Clearstream or Euroclear will instruct the respective depositaries, as appropriate, to deliver the global securities to the DTC participant’s account against payment. Payment will include interest accrued on the global securities from and including the last coupon Distribution Date to and excluding the settlement date. The payment will then be reflected in the account of the Clearstream Customer or Euroclear participant the following day, and receipt of the cash proceeds in the Clearstream Customer’s or Euroclear participant’s account would be back-valued to the value date, which would be the preceding day, when settlement occurred in New York. Should the Clearstream Customer or Euroclear participant have a line of credit with its respective clearing system and elect to be in debit in anticipation of receipt of the sale proceeds in its account, the back-valuation will extinguish any overdraft charges incurred over that one-day period. If settlement is not completed on the intended value date, that is, the trade fails, receipt of the cash proceeds in the Clearstream Customer’s or Euroclear participant’s account would instead be valued as of the actual settlement date.

 

Finally, day traders that use Clearstream or Euroclear and that purchase global securities from DTC participants for delivery to Clearstream Customers or Euroclear participants should note that these trades would automatically fail on the sale side unless affirmative action were taken. At least three techniques should be readily available to eliminate this potential problem:

 

    borrowing through Clearstream or Euroclear for one day (until the purchase side of the day trade is reflected in their Clearstream or Euroclear accounts) in accordance with the clearing system’s customary procedures;

 

    borrowing the global securities in the United States from a DTC participant no later than one day prior to settlement, which would give the global securities sufficient time to be reflected in their Clearstream or Euroclear account in order to settle the sale side of the trade; or

 

    staggering the value dates for the buy and sell sides of the trade so that the value date for the purchase from the DTC participant is at least one day prior to the value date for the sale to the Clearstream Customer or Euroclear participant.

 

35


Table of Contents

The securityholders who are not participants, either directly or indirectly, but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other interest in, securities may do so only through direct or indirect participants. In addition, securityholders will receive all distributions of principal and interest from the indenture trustee or the applicable trustee through the participants who in turn will receive them from DTC. Under a book-entry format, securityholders may experience some delay in their receipt of payments, since the payments will be forwarded by the applicable trustee to DTC’s nominee. DTC will forward the payments to its participants which thereafter will forward them to indirect participants or securityholders. To the extent the related prospectus supplement provides that Book-Entry Securities will be issued, the only “noteholder” or “certificateholder”, as applicable, will be DTC’s nominee. Securityholders will not be recognized by the applicable trustee as “noteholders” or “certificateholders” and securityholders will be permitted to exercise the rights of securityholders only indirectly through DTC and its participants.

 

Because DTC can only act on behalf of participants, who in turn act on behalf of indirect participants and certain banks, the ability of a securityholder to pledge securities to persons or entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions with respect to these securities, may be limited due to the lack of a physical certificate for these securities.

 

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the senior securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail an omnibus proxy to the indenture trustee or the trustee, as the case may be, as soon as possible after each applicable record date for such a consent or vote. The omnibus proxy will assign Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those participants to whose accounts the related securities will be credited on that record date, identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

 

DTC will advise the related administrator of each trust that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a securityholder under the related indenture, trust agreement or pooling and servicing agreement only at the direction of one or more participants to whose accounts with DTC the securities are credited. DTC may take conflicting actions with respect to other undivided interests to the extent that these actions are taken on behalf of participants whose holdings include these undivided interests.

 

Non-United States holders of global securities will be subject to United States withholding taxes unless these holders meet certain requirements and deliver appropriate United States tax documents to the securities clearing organizations or their participants.

 

The Depositories. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York UCC, and a “clearing agency” registered under the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entries, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Participants include securities brokers and dealers (who may include any of the underwriters of securities of the trust), banks, trust companies and clearing corporations and may include certain other organizations. Indirect access to the DTC system also is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly.

 

Clearstream is incorporated under the laws of Luxembourg as a professional depository. Clearstream holds securities for its customers and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Clearstream Customers through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Clearstream Customers, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Transactions may be settled by Clearstream in any of 36 currencies, including United States dollars. Clearstream

 

36


Table of Contents

provides to its Clearstream Customers, among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. As a professional depository, Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Monetary Institute. Clearstream Customers are recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations and may include any of the underwriters of any trust securities. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Clearstream Customer, either directly or indirectly.

 

Euroclear was created in 1968 to hold securities for its participants and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear participants through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and the risk from transfers of securities and cash that are not simultaneous.

 

The Euroclear system has subsequently been extended to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear participants and counterparties both in Clearstream and in many domestic securities markets. Transactions may be settled in any of 34 currencies. In addition to safekeeping and securities clearance and settlement, the Euroclear system includes securities lending and borrowing and money transfer services. The Euroclear system is operated by Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V., acting as the Euroclear operator. The Euroclear operator has a banking license from the Belgian Banking and Finance Commission. As such, it is regulated and examined by the Belgian Banking and Finance Commission.

 

All operations are conducted by the Euroclear operator and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear operator. They are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear system and applicable Belgian law. These govern all transfers of securities and cash, both within the Euroclear system, and receipts and withdrawals of securities and cash. All securities in the Euroclear system are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts.

 

Euroclear participants include banks, securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include any of the underwriters of any trust securities. Indirect access to the Euroclear system is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear participant, either directly or indirectly. The Euroclear operator acts under the Terms and Conditions, the Operating Procedures of the Euroclear system and Belgian law only on behalf of Euroclear participants and has no record of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear participants.

 

Definitive Securities

 

With respect to any class of notes and any class of certificates issued in book-entry form, such notes or certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form to noteholders or certificateholders, as applicable, or their respective nominees, rather than to DTC or its nominee, only if:

 

    the administrator of the trust or the trustee of the trust determines that DTC is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as Depository with respect to the securities and the administrator or the seller, as the case may be, is unable to locate a qualified successor and so notifies the trustee in writing;

 

37


Table of Contents
    the administrator or the seller, as the case may be, at its option, elects to terminate the book-entry system through DTC; or

 

    after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Event of Servicing Termination, holders representing not less than 51% of the outstanding principal amount of the notes or the certificates, as the case may be, of such class advise the indenture trustee or the trustee through DTC in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC, or a successor thereto, with respect to the notes or certificates is no longer in the best interest of the holders of the securities.

 

Upon the occurrence of any event described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the indenture trustee or the trustee will be required to notify all applicable securityholders of a given class through participants of the availability of Definitive Securities. Upon surrender by DTC of the Definitive Securities representing the corresponding securities and receipt of instructions for re-registration, the indenture trustee or the trustee will reissue the securities as Definitive Securities to the securityholders.

 

Distributions of principal of, and interest on, the Definitive Securities will thereafter be made by the indenture trustee or the trustee in accordance with the procedures set forth in the related indenture or the related trust agreement directly to holders of Definitive Securities in whose names the Definitive Securities were registered at the close of business on the Record Date specified for such securities in the related prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, the distributions will be made by check mailed to the address of the holder as it appears on the register maintained by the indenture trustee or trustee. The final payment on any Definitive Security, however, will be made only upon presentation and surrender of the Definitive Security at the office or agency specified in the notice of final distribution to the applicable securityholders.

 

Definitive Securities will be transferable and exchangeable at the offices of the indenture trustee or the trustee or of a registrar named in a notice delivered to holders of Definitive Securities. No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the indenture trustee or the trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

 

Reports to Securityholders

 

On or prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer or the administrator will prepare and provide to the related indenture trustee and/or trustee a statement to be delivered to the securityholders on such Distribution Date. Each statement to be delivered to the securityholders on a Distribution Date will include, to the extent applicable to those securityholders, the following information, and any other information so specified in the prospectus supplement, with respect to such Distribution Date or the period since the previous Distribution Date, as applicable:

statement containing certain information for the purposes of the securityholder’s preparation of federal income tax returns. See “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences”.

 

Securities Owned by the Trust, the Seller, the Servicer or their Affiliates

 

In general, except as otherwise described in the transaction documents relating to a series of securities issued by a trust, any securities owned by the trust, the Seller, the Servicer or any of their respective affiliates will be entitled to benefits under such documents equally and proportionately to the benefits afforded other owners of securities, except that such securities will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the requisite percentage of securityholders have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under such documents.

 

Limitation on Right to Institute Bankruptcy Proceedings

 

Each trustee and each securityholder, by accepting the related securities or a beneficial interest therein, will covenant that they will not at any time institute against the trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

 

Description of the Indenture

 

Each trust that issues notes will issue one or more classes of notes under the terms of an indenture between the trust and the related indenture trustee. A form of indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. This summary describes the material provisions common to the notes of each trust that issues notes. The related prospectus supplement will give you additional information on the material provisions specific to the notes which you are purchasing. This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the notes and the indenture.

 

Events of Default

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the following events will constitute “Events of Default” under each indenture:

 

    a default in the payment of interest on any note of the Controlling Class for five or more business days;

 

    a default in the payment of principal of any note on the related final scheduled Distribution Date;

 

    a default in the observance or performance of any other material covenant or agreement of the trust made in the indenture and such default not having been cured for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof has been given to the trust by the Seller or the indenture trustee or to the trust, the Seller and the indenture trustee by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class;

 

    any representation or warranty made by the trust in the indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith having been incorrect in any material respect as of the time made and such incorrectness not having been cured for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof has been given to the trust by the Seller or the indenture trustee or to the trust, the Seller and the indenture trustee by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class;

 

40


Table of Contents
    certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the applicable trust or its property as specified in the indenture; and

 

    any other events set forth in the related prospectus supplement.

 

The amount of principal due and payable on a class of notes on any Distribution Date prior to the related final scheduled Distribution Date generally will be limited to amounts available to pay principal. Therefore, the failure to pay principal on a class of notes generally will not result in the occurrence of an Event of Default until the final scheduled Distribution Date for that class of notes.

 

Rights Upon Event of Default

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the notes, the indenture trustee or the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may declare the notes immediately due and payable. This declaration of acceleration may, under some circumstances, be rescinded by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class.

 

If the notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the indenture trustee may, or at the direction of the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class shall, institute proceedings to collect amounts due or foreclose on the trust property, exercise remedies as a secured party, sell the trust property or elect to have the trust maintain possession of the trust property and continue to apply collections on the receivables as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. The indenture trustee is generally prohibited from selling the trust property following an Event of Default unless:

 

    the holders of all the outstanding notes consent to the sale, excluding the notes held by the Seller, CarMax Auto or any of their affiliates;

 

    the proceeds of the sale will be sufficient to pay in full the principal of and interest on the outstanding notes; or

 

    the indenture trustee determines that the trust property will not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the notes on an ongoing basis and the indenture trustee obtains the consent of the holders of notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class.

 

The indenture trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an independent accountant or investment banking firm as to the sufficiency of the trust property to pay principal of and interest on the notes on an ongoing basis. Any money received as a result of the sale of trust property will first be applied to pay any fees and expenses due to the indenture trustee.

 

If the notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the priority of payments will change and the holders of the most senior class of notes outstanding must be paid in full before any distributions of principal or interest may be made on the other classes of notes. This new payment priority will apply to each class of notes, requiring that the then most senior class of notes outstanding be paid in full before any distributions of principal or interest may be made on the more junior classes of notes. Until the then most senior class of notes outstanding has been paid in full, the failure to pay interest on the more junior classes of notes will not constitute an Event of Default.

 

41


Table of Contents

If a trust issues a class of notes that is subordinated to one or more other classes of notes and an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the related indenture trustee may be deemed to have a conflict of interest under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 and a successor trustee may be appointed for one or more of such classes of notes. If any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the then most senior class of notes outstanding, only the trustee for that class of notes will have the right to exercise remedies under the indenture (but the other classes of notes will be entitled to their respective shares of any proceeds of enforcement, subject to their subordination to each more senior class of notes as described herein), and only the noteholders from the then most senior class of notes outstanding will have the right to direct or consent to any action to be taken, including sale of the trust property, until that particular class of notes is paid in full. Upon repayment in full of the most senior class of notes outstanding, all rights to exercise remedies under the indenture will transfer to the trustee for the then most senior class of notes outstanding, and for so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to that class of notes, only the trustee for that class of notes will have the right to exercise remedies under the indenture. This payment priority in which the then most senior class of notes outstanding will be paid in full before payments will be made to the more junior classes of notes will continue until each class of notes has been paid in full in order of their respective priorities.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the indenture trustee generally will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the related indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the notes if the indenture trustee reasonably believes that it will not be adequately indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in complying with that request or direction. The holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class will have the right, subject to certain limitations contained in the related indenture, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the indenture trustee.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, no holder of a note of any trust will have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the related indenture, unless:

 

    the holder previously has given to the indenture trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

 

    the holders of notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class have made written request to the indenture trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name as indenture trustee;

 

    the holder or holders have offered the indenture trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

 

    the indenture trustee has for 60 days after such notice, request and offer of indemnity failed to institute the proceeding; and

 

    no direction inconsistent with such request has been given to the indenture trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class.

 

If the indenture trustee receives conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of noteholders, each holding notes evidencing less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class, the indenture trustee in its sole discretion will determine what action, if any, will be taken with respect to such requests.

 

42


Table of Contents

Each indenture trustee and the related noteholders, by accepting the related notes, will covenant that they will not at any time institute against the applicable trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

 

With respect to any trust, neither the related indenture trustee nor the related trustee in its individual capacity, nor any holder of a certificate, if any, representing an ownership interest in the trust nor any of their respective owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates, successors or assigns will be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or interest on the related notes or for the agreements of the trust contained in the related indenture.

 

The right of any noteholder to receive payments of principal and interest on its notes when due, or to institute suit for any payments not made when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the holder’s consent.

 

Waiver of Past Defaults

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, prior to acceleration of the maturity of the notes, the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may waive any past default or Event of Default, other than a default in payment of principal of or interest on the notes or in respect of any covenant or other provision in the related indenture that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the unanimous consent of the noteholders.

Modification of Indenture

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, each trust and the related indenture trustee may, without the consent of the related noteholders, with prior written notice to each Rating Agency, enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding to the covenants of the trust for the benefit of the noteholders, curing any ambiguity, correcting or supplementing any provision of the related indenture which may be inconsistent with any other provision of the indenture, this prospectus or the related prospectus supplement or adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the indenture which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of the indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any noteholder and no such supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel as to various tax matters is delivered to the indenture trustee.

    will examine any certificates and opinions which are specifically required to be furnished to the indenture trustee under the indenture to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of the indenture.

 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the indenture trustee will be required to exercise the rights and powers vested in it by the related indenture and to use the same degree of care and skill in the exercise of those rights and powers as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of that person’s own affairs.

Replacement of Indenture Trustee

 

The indenture trustee may resign at any time by notifying the trust and the noteholders. Additionally, if a trust issues a class of notes that is subordinated to one or more other classes of notes and an Event of Default occurs under the related indenture, the indenture trustee may be deemed to have a conflict of interest under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 and may be required to resign as trustee for one or more of such classes. In any such case, the indenture will provide for the appointment of a successor indenture trustee.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may remove the indenture trustee without cause and, following that removal, may appoint a successor indenture trustee.

Any resignation or removal of the indenture trustee and appointment of a successor indenture trustee will not become effective until acceptance of such appointment by the successor indenture trustee.

In the case of a grantor trust, these documents are the receivables purchase agreement and the pooling and servicing agreement. This summary also describes the material provisions of the trust agreement for a trust that is not a grantor trust. Forms of certain of these documents have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. This summary describes the material provisions of these documents common to the securities of each trust.

Except as otherwise set forth in the related prospectus supplement, if CarMax Auto breaches a representation or warranty set forth in a receivables purchase agreement and such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which CarMax Auto becomes aware of, or receives written notice of, such breach and such breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the

Table of Contents

Seller in any receivable, CarMax Auto will repurchase such receivable from the Seller on the Distribution Date immediately following such Collection Period at a price generally equal to the related Purchase Amount. Alternatively, if so specified in the related prospectus supplement, CarMax Auto will be permitted, in a circumstance where it would otherwise be required to repurchase a receivable as described in the preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable receivable for the receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and eligibility criteria for the substitute receivable described in the related prospectus supplement. The repurchase obligation, or, if applicable, the substitution alternative with respect thereto, constitutes the sole remedy available to the Seller for any such uncured breach.

 

Except as otherwise set forth in the related prospectus supplement, if the Seller breaches a representation or warranty set forth in a sale and servicing agreement or a pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, and such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which the Seller becomes aware of, or receives written notice of, such breach and such breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the related trust in any receivable, the Seller will repurchase such receivable from the trust on the Distribution Date immediately following such Collection Period at a price generally equal to the related Purchase Amount. Alternatively, if so specified in the related prospectus supplement, the Seller will be permitted, in a circumstance where it would otherwise be required to repurchase a receivable as described in the preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable receivable for the receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and eligibility criteria for the substitute receivable described in the related prospectus supplement. The obligation of the Seller to repurchase a receivable will not be conditioned on performance by CarMax Auto of its obligation to repurchase a receivable from the Seller. The repurchase obligation, or, if applicable, the substitution alternative with respect thereto, constitutes the sole remedy available to the certificateholders, if any, or the trustee and any noteholders or indenture trustee in respect of each trust for any such uncured breach.

 

Servicing of Receivables. To assure uniform quality in servicing the receivables and to reduce administrative costs, each trust will designate the Servicer to service and administer the receivables held by the trust and, as custodian on behalf of the trust, to maintain possession of the installment sale contracts or installment loan agreements and any other documents relating to the receivables. To reduce administrative costs, the installment sale contracts or installment loan agreements and any other documents relating to the receivables will not be physically segregated from other similar documents that are in the Servicer’s possession or otherwise stamped or marked to reflect the transfer to the trust and the obligors under the receivables will not be notified of the transfer. However, UCC financing statements reflecting the transfer of the receivables by the Seller to the trust will be filed and the Servicer’s accounting records and computer systems will be marked to reflect such transfer. Because the receivables will remain in the Servicer’s possession and will not be stamped or otherwise marked to reflect the transfer to the trust, the trust’s interest in the receivables could be defeated if a subsequent purchaser were to obtain physical possession of the receivables without knowledge of such transfer. See “Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables—Security Interests in the Financed Vehicles”.

 

Accounts

 

The Servicer will establish and maintain for each trust, in the name of the related indenture trustee on behalf of the related noteholders in the case of a trust that issues notes or in the name of the related trustee on behalf of the related certificateholders in the case of a trust that does not issue notes, one or more collection accounts into which all payments made on or with respect to the related receivables will be deposited. In the case of a trust that issues notes, the Servicer may establish and maintain with the related indenture trustee one or more note payment accounts, which may be subaccounts of the collection account, in the name of such indenture trustee on behalf of the related noteholders, into which amounts

 

50


Table of Contents

released from the collection account and any other accounts of the trust for payment to such noteholders will be deposited and from which all payments to such noteholders will be made. In the case of a trust that issues certificates or is a grantor trust, the Servicer may establish and maintain with the related trustee one or more certificate payment accounts, which may be subaccounts of the collection account, in the name of such trustee on behalf of the related certificateholders, into which amounts released from the collection account and any other accounts of the trust for distribution to such certificateholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to such certificateholders will be made.

 

Any other accounts to be established with respect to a trust, including any pre-funding account, yield supplement account or reserve account, will be described in the related prospectus supplement.

 

All funds on deposit in the trust accounts will be invested in Permitted Investments as provided in the related sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement. Permitted Investments are generally limited to obligations or securities that mature on or before the business day preceding the Distribution Date in the Collection Period following the Collection Period in which the investment is made. However, to the extent permitted by the Rating Agencies, funds in any reserve account may be invested in securities that will not mature prior to the date of the next distribution on the notes or certificates, if any, and which will not be sold to meet any shortfalls. Thus, the amount of cash available in any reserve account at any time may be less than the balance of the reserve account. If the amount required to be withdrawn from any reserve account to cover shortfalls in collections on the related receivables, as provided in the related prospectus supplement, exceeds the amount of cash in the reserve account, a temporary shortfall in the amounts distributed to the related noteholders or certificateholders, if any, could result, which could, in turn, increase the average life of the notes or the certificates, if any, of the related trust. All net investment earnings on funds on deposit in the trust accounts will be deposited in the related collection account or distributed as provided in the related prospectus supplement.

 

The trust accounts will be maintained as Eligible Deposit Accounts, which satisfy certain requirements of the Rating Agencies.

 

Servicing Procedures

 

The Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect all payments due with respect to the receivables held by each trust and will, consistent with the related sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts or installment loans that it services for itself or others. The Servicer may, consistent with its normal procedures, defer a payment on a receivable or otherwise modify the payment schedule of a receivable. The Servicer may be obligated to purchase or make advances with respect to a receivable if, among other things, it extends the date for final payment by the obligor of such receivable beyond the date set forth in the related prospectus supplement or, if set forth in the prospectus supplement, it changes the contract rate of interest or the total amount or number of scheduled payments of such receivable. If the Servicer determines that eventual payment in full of a receivable is unlikely, the Servicer will follow its normal practices and procedures to realize upon the receivable, including the repossession and disposition of the related Financed Vehicle at a public or private sale or the taking of any other action permitted by applicable law.

 

Collections

 

The Servicer will deposit all amounts received on or in respect of the receivables held by each trust into the related collection account within two business days after such receipt; provided, however, that the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the collection account until the

 

51


Table of Contents

business day preceding the Distribution Date following the Collection Period during which such amounts were received at any time that and for so long as:

 

    CarMax Auto is the Servicer;

 

    no Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing; and

 

    each other condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified by the Rating Agencies or set forth in the related prospectus supplement is satisfied.

 

To the extent set forth in the related prospectus supplement, the Servicer may, in order to satisfy the requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other security for the benefit of the related trust to secure timely remittances of amounts received on or in respect of the receivables. If the Servicer is permitted to deposit amounts received on or in respect of the receivables on a monthly basis, it may invest such amounts at its own risk and for its own benefit pending deposit into the collection account and need not segregate such amounts from its own funds. If the Servicer were unable to remit such funds to the collection account, securityholders might incur a loss.

 

All amounts received on or in respect of a receivable during any Collection Period which are not late fees, prepayment charges or certain other similar fees or charges will be applied first to any outstanding advances made by the Servicer with respect to such receivable and then to the scheduled payment.

 

Simple Interest Advances

 

If so provided in the related prospectus supplement, the Servicer may, on any Distribution Date, make a Simple Interest Advance with respect to the preceding Collection Period to the extent that the Servicer determines that such advance will be recoverable from subsequent collections or recoveries on the related receivables or on other Simple Interest Receivables in the related trust or from any other source of funds identified in such prospectus supplement. If the Simple Interest Advance with respect to any Collection Period is a negative amount, that amount will be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest Advances. In addition, if a Simple Interest Receivable becomes a Defaulted Receivable, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest owing on that receivable, but not including interest for the Collection Period, shall be withdrawn from the collection account and paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest Advances in the priority set forth in the related prospectus supplement. No advances of principal will be made with respect to Simple Interest Receivables. The Servicer will deposit all Simple Interest Advances into the related collection account on the business day preceding the Distribution Date following the Collection Period during which the related interest payment was due.

 

Servicing Compensation and Expenses

 

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement with respect to any trust, the Servicer will be entitled to receive a servicing fee for each Collection Period in an amount equal to a specified percentage per annum of the outstanding principal balance of the related receivables as of the first day of that Collection Period. The servicing fee percentage applicable to each trust will be specified in the related prospectus supplement. If so specified in the prospectus supplement with respect to any trust, the Servicer also may be entitled to receive as a supplemental servicing fee for each Collection Period any late, prepayment and other administrative fees and expenses collected during that Collection Period and, if so specified in the related prospectus supplement, the net investment earnings on funds deposited in the trust accounts and other accounts with respect to the trust. The Servicer will be paid the servicing fee and

 

52


Table of Contents

the supplemental servicing fee for each Collection Period on the Distribution Date following that Collection Period.

 

The servicing fee and the supplemental servicing fee are intended to compensate the Servicer for performing the functions of a third party servicer of the receivables as an agent for the related trust, including collecting and posting all payments, responding to inquiries of obligors on the receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to obligors, reporting federal income tax information to obligors, paying costs of collections and policing the collateral. The fees will also compensate the Servicer for administering the receivables, including making advances, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the related trustee and indenture trustee with respect to distributions and generating federal income tax information for the related trust. The fees, if any, also will reimburse the Servicer for certain taxes, the fees of the related trustee and indenture trustee, if any, accounting fees, outside auditor fees, data processing costs and other costs incurred in connection with administering the receivables.

 

Distributions

 

All distributions of principal and interest, or, where applicable, of principal or interest only, on each class of securities entitled thereto will be made by the related trustee or indenture trustee to the related noteholders or certificateholders beginning on the Distribution Date specified in the related prospectus supplement. The timing, calculation, allocation, order, source, priorities of and requirements for all payments to each class of securityholders of each trust will be set forth in the related prospectus supplement. On or prior to the business day before each Distribution Date, the Servicer will determine the amount in the collection account available to make distributions to securityholders on such Distribution Date and will direct the indenture trustee, if any, and/or the trustee to make such distributions as described in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement

 

The amounts and types of credit or cash flow enhancement, if any, and the provider thereof, if applicable, for any class of securities will be described in the related prospectus supplement. If and to the extent provided in the related prospectus supplement, credit or cash flow enhancement may be in the form of subordination of one or more classes of securities, reserve accounts, overcollateralization, excess interest collections, letters of credit or other credit facilities, liquidity facilities, surety bonds, insurance policies, guaranteed investment contracts, swaps or other interest rate protection agreements, repurchase or put obligations, yield supplement agreements, guaranteed rate agreements, other agreements with respect to third party payments or other support, such other arrangements as may be described in the related prospectus supplement or any combination of two or more of the foregoing. If specified in the related prospectus supplement, credit or cash flow enhancement for a class of securities may cover one or more other classes of securities of the same series and credit or cash flow enhancement for a series of securities may cover one or more other series of securities.

 

The credit or cash flow enhancement for any class of securities is intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by the securityholders of that class of the full amount of principal and interest due on the securities and to decrease the likelihood that the securityholders will experience losses. The credit or cash flow enhancement for a class of securities may not provide protection against all risks of loss and may not guarantee repayment of the entire principal amount and interest due on the securities. If losses occur which exceed the amount covered by any credit enhancement or which are not covered by any credit enhancement, securityholders will bear their allocable share of deficiencies as described in the related prospectus supplement. If so provided in the related prospectus supplement, the Seller may replace the credit or cash

 

53


Table of Contents

flow enhancement for any class of securities with another form of credit or cash flow enhancement without the consent of the related securityholders, provided the Rating Agencies confirm in writing that such substitution will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any class of securities of the related trust.

 

Reserve Account. If so provided in the related prospectus supplement, the reserve account will be funded by an initial deposit by the Seller on the Closing Date in the amount set forth in the related prospectus supplement and, if the related trust has a Funding Period, will also be funded on each Subsequent Transfer Date to the extent described in the related prospectus supplement. As further described in the related prospectus supplement, the amount on deposit in the reserve account will be increased on each Distribution Date thereafter up to the specified reserve fund balance by the deposit of certain excess interest collections in respect of the receivables collected during the related Collection Period remaining after securityholders have been paid amounts owed to them and after the Servicer has been reimbursed for any outstanding advances and paid all applicable servicing compensation with respect to that Collection Period. The Servicer, however, will account to the trustee, any indenture trustee, the noteholders, if any, and the certificateholders, if any, with respect to each trust as if all deposits, distributions and transfers were made individually.

 

Evidence as to Compliance

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide that a firm of independent certified public accountants will furnish to the related trust and the related indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, an annual statement as to compliance by the Servicer during the preceding 12 months (or, in the case of the first certificate, from the related Closing Date) with certain standards relating to the servicing of the related receivables.

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide for delivery to the related trust and the related indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, substantially simultaneously with the delivery of the accountants’ statement referred to above, of a certificate signed by an officer of the Servicer stating that the Servicer has fulfilled its obligations under that agreement throughout the preceding 12 months (or, in the case of the first certificate, from the related Closing Date) or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, describing each default.

 

Copies of these statements and certificates may be obtained by securityholders by a request in writing addressed to the applicable trustee.

 

Certain Matters Regarding the Servicer

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide that the Servicer may not resign from its obligations and duties as Servicer thereunder except:

 

    upon a determination that the Servicer’s performance of its duties is no longer permissible under applicable law; or

 

    upon the appointment of a successor servicer and upon notification by each Rating Agency then rating any of the related securities that the rating then assigned to the securities will not be reduced or withdrawn by that Rating Agency as a result of that resignation and appointment.

 

54


Table of Contents

No resignation will become effective until the related indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, or a successor servicer has assumed the servicing obligations and duties under the sale and servicing agreement or the pooling and servicing agreement. The Servicer will also have the right to delegate any of its duties under those agreements to a third party without the consent of any securityholder or the confirmation of any rating assigned to the securities. The Servicer will, however, remain responsible and liable for its duties under those agreements as if it had made no delegations.

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide that neither the Servicer nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents will be under any liability to the related trust or the related noteholders or certificateholders, if any, for taking any action or for refraining from taking any action thereunder or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that neither the Servicer nor any other person will be protected against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (other than errors in judgment) in the performance of the Servicer’s duties thereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties thereunder.

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide that the Servicer is under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its duties to service the related receivables and that, in its opinion, may cause it to incur any expense or liability. The Servicer may, however, undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of any sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, and the rights and duties of the parties thereto and the interests of the related securityholders thereunder. In that event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom will be expenses, costs, and liabilities of the trust, and the Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed therefor.

 

Each sale and servicing agreement and pooling and servicing agreement will provide, under the circumstances specified therein, that any entity into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Servicer is a party, or any entity succeeding to the business of the Servicer, which entity in each of the foregoing cases assumes the obligations of the Servicer, will be the successor to the Servicer under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable.

 

Events of Servicing Termination

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the following events will constitute “Events of Servicing Termination” under each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement:

 

    the Servicer shall fail to make any required payment or deposit under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of five business days following the date that payment or deposit was due or, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Distribution Date or the business day preceding a Distribution Date, that Distribution Date or preceding business day, as applicable;

 

55


Table of Contents
    the Servicer shall fail to deliver to the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, the monthly report relating to the payment of amounts due to securityholders and that failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of three business days following the date that report was due and the business day preceding the related Distribution Date;

 

    the Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Seller or the securityholders and that failure shall continue unremedied for 60 days after written notice of that failure shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller or the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, or to CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer and the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class or, if the notes have been paid in full or the trust has not issued notes, by the holders of certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance;

 

    any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, other than any representation or warranty relating to a receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when made and that breach shall continue unremedied for 30 days after written notice of that breach shall have been given to the Servicer by the Seller or the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, or to CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer and the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, by the holders of notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class or, if the notes have been paid in full or the trust has not issued notes, by the holders of certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance;

 

    the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the Servicer or its property as specified in the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement; and

 

    any other events set forth in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Rights Upon Event of Servicing Termination

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, if an Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing under a sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, the related indenture trustee or the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class or, if the notes have been paid in full or the trust has not issued notes, the related trustee or the holders of certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable. If the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement have been terminated, the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, or a successor Servicer appointed by the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, will succeed to all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements. If, however, a bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer, and no Event of Servicing Termination other than that appointment has occurred and is continuing, that trustee or similar official may have the power to prevent a transfer of servicing. If the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, is unwilling or unable to act as successor Servicer, it may appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor

 

56


Table of Contents

Servicer with a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts or installment loans. If so specified in the prospectus supplement with respect to any trust, the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, may arrange for compensation to be paid to the successor Servicer, which may be greater than the servicing compensation paid to the Servicer under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable. The predecessor Servicer will be obligated to pay the costs and expenses associated with the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer. Such amounts, if not paid by the predecessor Servicer, will be paid out of collections on the receivables.

 

Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the holders of notes evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class may, on behalf of all noteholders, or, if the notes have been paid in full or the trust has not issued notes, the related trustee or the holders of certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance may, on behalf of all certificateholders, waive any Event of Servicing Termination and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from the collection account, the note payment account, the reserve account or the certificate payment account, if any, in accordance with the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable. No such waiver of an Event of Servicing Termination will impair the rights of the noteholders or the certificateholders with respect to any subsequent or other Event of Servicing Termination.

 

Amendment

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, but without the consent of the noteholders or certificateholders, as applicable, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement or in this prospectus or the related prospectus supplement or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement; provided, however, that no such amendment may materially adversely affect the interests of any noteholder or certificateholder and no such amendment will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel as to various tax matters is delivered to the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable.

 

An amendment will be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any securityholder if the person requesting the amendment obtains and delivers to the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable:

 

    an opinion of counsel to that effect; or

 

    a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that the amendment would not result in a downgrading or withdrawal of its rating then assigned to any class of notes or certificates, as applicable.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, and the consent of the holders of

 

57


Table of Contents

notes evidencing at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class or, if the notes have been paid in full or the trust has not issued notes, the holders of certificates evidencing at least 66 2/3% of the Certificate Balance, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the noteholders or certificateholders, as applicable; provided, however, that no such amendment will be permitted unless an opinion of counsel as to various tax matters is delivered to the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, and the consent of all noteholders or certificateholders, as applicable, adversely affected is required for any amendment:

 

    to increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the noteholders or certificateholders, as applicable, or to change the interest rate applicable to any class of notes or certificates or the required reserve account amount; or

 

    to reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Controlling Class the consent of the holders of which is required for any amendment to the sale and servicing agreement or to reduce the percentage of the Certificate Balance the consent of the holders of which is required for any amendment to the pooling and servicing agreement.

 

Payment of Notes

 

The indenture trustee will agree in the related indenture that, upon the payment in full of all outstanding notes of the related trust and the satisfaction and discharge of the related indenture, to continue to carry out its obligations under the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, as agent for the trustee of the trust.

 

Termination

 

The obligations of the Servicer, the Seller, the indenture trustee and the trustee under each trust agreement, sale and servicing agreement, pooling and servicing agreement or administration agreement, as applicable, will terminate upon the earlier of the maturity or other liquidation of the last related receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of any remaining receivables and the payment to the noteholders and the certificateholders, if any, of the related trust of all amounts required to be paid to them under that agreement.

 

If so provided in the related prospectus supplement, in order to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted, at its option, to purchase the receivables held by any trust on any Distribution Date as of which the aggregate principal balance of such receivables is 10% or less of the aggregate principal balance of the receivables held by such trust as of the related Cutoff Date or under such other circumstances as may be specified in such prospectus supplement. The purchase price for the receivables will equal the aggregate of the related Purchase Amounts as of the end of the preceding Collection Period, after giving effect to the application of any monies collected on the receivables. The purchase price for the receivables will not be less than the outstanding principal balance of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

 

If so provided in the related prospectus supplement, the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, will, within ten days following the first Distribution Date as of which the aggregate principal balance of the receivables held by the related trust is equal to or less than a percentage specified in such prospectus supplement of the aggregate principal balance of the receivables held by such trust as of the related Cutoff Date, solicit bids for the purchase of the receivables remaining in the trust in the manner and subject to

 

58


Table of Contents

the terms and conditions set forth in such prospectus supplement. If the indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, receives satisfactory bids as described in the prospectus supplement, then the receivables remaining in the trust will be sold to the highest bidder.

 

As more fully described in the related prospectus supplement, any outstanding notes of the related trust will be paid in full concurrently with either of the events specified above and the subsequent distribution to the related certificateholders, if any, of all amounts required to be distributed to them under the related trust agreement will effect early retirement of the certificates of such trust.

 

List of Certificateholders

 

Any three or more holders of the certificates of any trust or one or more holders of the certificates of any trust evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance may, by written request to the related trustee accompanied by a copy of the communication that the requesting certificateholders propose to send, obtain access to the list of all certificateholders maintained by the trustee for the purpose of communicating with other certificateholders with respect to their rights under the related trust agreement or pooling and servicing agreement or under such certificates.

 

Administration Agreement

 

CarMax Auto will enter into an administration agreement with each trust that issues notes and the related indenture trustee under which it will agree, to the extent provided in the administration agreement, to provide the notices and to perform other administrative obligations required by the related indenture. The administrator will be entitled to a monthly administration fee as compensation for the performance of its obligations under the administration agreement and as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, as provided in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables

 

Security Interests in the Receivables

 

The receivables are “chattel paper” as defined in the UCC. Under the UCC, for most purposes, a sale of chattel paper is treated in a manner similar to a transaction creating a security interest in chattel paper. CarMax Auto and the Seller will cause financing statements to be filed with the appropriate governmental authorities to perfect the interest of the Seller and the trust in the related receivables. The Servicer will hold the receivables transferred to each trust, either directly or through subservicers, as custodian for the related indenture trustee or trustee, as applicable, and the trust. The Seller will take the action that is required to perfect the rights of the indenture trustee and the trust in the receivables. However, the receivables will not be stamped, or otherwise marked, to indicate that they have been sold to the trust. If, through inadvertence or otherwise, another party purchases or takes a security interest in the receivables for new value in the ordinary course of business and takes possession of the receivables without actual knowledge of the trust’s interest, the purchaser or secured party will acquire an interest in the receivables superior to the interest of the trust. The Seller and the Servicer will be obligated to take those actions which are necessary to protect and perfect the trust’s interest in the receivables and their proceeds.

 

Security Interests in the Financed Vehicles

 

The receivables evidence the credit sale of motor vehicles by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto to obligors or a direct loan by CarMax Auto or an affiliate of CarMax Auto to obligors to finance the purchase of motor vehicles. The receivables also constitute personal property security agreements and include grants of security interests in the related vehicles under the UCC. Perfection of security interests in motor vehicles is generally governed by state certificate of title statutes or by the

 

59


Table of Contents

motor vehicle registration laws of the state in which each vehicle is located. In most states, a security interest in a motor vehicle is perfected by notation of the secured party’s lien on the vehicle’s certificate of title.

 

Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, CarMax Auto will be obligated to have taken all actions necessary under the laws of the state in which a Financed Vehicle is located to perfect its security interest in the Financed Vehicle, including, where applicable, by having a notation of its lien recorded on the Financed Vehicle’s certificate of title or, if appropriate, by perfecting its security interest in the Financed Vehicle under the UCC. Because the Servicer will continue to service the receivables, the obligors on the receivables will not be notified of the sales from CarMax Auto to the Seller or from the Seller to the trust, and no action will be taken to record the transfer of the security interest from CarMax Auto to the Seller or from the Seller to the trust by amendment of the certificates of title for the Financed Vehicles or otherwise.

 

Each receivables purchase agreement will provide that CarMax Auto will assign to the Seller its interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the related receivables. Each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement will provide that the Seller will assign its interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the related receivables to the trust. However, because of the administrative burden and expense, none of CarMax Auto, the Seller, the Servicer or the related trustee will amend any certificate of title to identify either the Seller or the trust as the new secured party on the certificate of title relating to a Financed Vehicle nor will any entity execute and file any transfer instrument. In addition, the Servicer or the custodian will continue to hold any certificates of title relating to the Financed Vehicles in its possession as custodian for the trustee in accordance with the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable.

 

In most states, the assignments under the receivables purchase agreement and the sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, will be effective to convey the security interest of CarMax Auto in a Financed Vehicle without amendment of any lien noted on a vehicle’s certificate of title or re-registration of the vehicle, and the trust will succeed to CarMax Auto’s rights as secured party upon the transfer from the Seller. However, in those states in which re-registration of a Financed Vehicle is not necessary to convey a perfected security interest in the Financed Vehicle to the trust, the trust’s security interest could be defeated through fraud or negligence because the trust will not be listed as legal owner on the related certificate of title. Moreover, in other states, in the absence of an amendment and re-registration, a perfected security interest in the Financed Vehicles may not have been effectively conveyed to the trust. In those other states, however, in the absence of fraud, forgery or administrative error by state recording officials, the notation of CarMax Auto’s lien on the certificate of title will be sufficient to protect the trust against the rights of subsequent purchasers of a Financed Vehicle or subsequent creditors who take a security interest in a Financed Vehicle. UCC financing statements with respect to the transfer of CarMax Auto’s security interest in the Financed Vehicles to the Seller and with respect to the transfer of the Seller’s security interest in the Financed Vehicles to the trust will be filed.

 

If CarMax Auto failed to obtain a first priority perfected security interest in a Financed Vehicle, its security interest would be subordinate to, among others, subsequent purchasers of that Financed Vehicle or subsequent creditors who take a perfected security interest in that Financed Vehicle. CarMax Auto will represent and warrant to the Seller in each receivables purchase agreement, and the Seller will represent and warrant to the related trust in each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, that all action necessary for CarMax Auto to obtain a perfected security interest in each Financed Vehicle has been taken. If this representation and warranty is breached and not cured with respect to a Financed Vehicle, CarMax Auto will be required to repurchase the related receivable from the Seller and the Seller will be required to repurchase the related receivable from the trust.

Table of Contents

In most states, a perfected security interest in a vehicle continues for four months after the vehicle is moved to a new state from the one in which it is initially registered and thereafter until the owner re-registers the vehicle in the new state. A majority of states require surrender of the related certificate of title to re-register a vehicle. In those states that require a secured party to hold possession of the certificate of title to maintain perfection of the security interest, the secured party would learn of the re-registration through the request from the obligor under the related installment sale contract or installment loan to surrender possession of the certificate of title. In the case of vehicles registered in states providing for the notation of a lien on the certificate of title but not possession by the secured party, the secured party would receive notice of surrender from the state of re-registration if the security interest is noted on the certificate of title. Thus, the secured party would have the opportunity to re-perfect its security interest in the vehicles in the state of relocation. However, these procedural safeguards will not protect the secured party if, through fraud, forgery or administrative error, the obligor procures a new certificate of title that does not list the secured party’s lien. Additionally, in states that do not require a certificate of title for registration of a vehicle, re-registration could defeat perfection. In the ordinary course of servicing the receivables, the Servicer will take steps to effect re-perfection upon receipt of notice of re-registration or information from the obligor as to relocation. Similarly, when an obligor sells a Financed Vehicle, the Servicer must surrender possession of the certificate of title or will receive notice as a result of its lien and accordingly will have an opportunity to require satisfaction of the related receivable before release of the lien. Under each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, the Servicer will be obligated to take appropriate steps, at its own expense, to maintain perfection of the security interests in the Financed Vehicles.

 

In most states, liens for repairs performed on a motor vehicle and liens for unpaid taxes take priority over a perfected security interest in the vehicle. The Internal Revenue Code also grants priority to certain federal tax liens over a perfected security interest in a motor vehicle. The laws of certain states and federal law permit the confiscation of motor vehicles by governmental authorities under certain circumstances if used in unlawful activities, which may result in the loss of a secured party’s perfected security interest in a confiscated vehicle. CarMax Auto will represent and warrant to the Seller in each receivables purchase agreement, and the Seller will represent and warrant to the related trust in each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, that, as of the related Closing Date, it has no knowledge of any liens or claims that have been filed, including liens for work, labor, materials or unpaid taxes, relating to a Financed Vehicle that are prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in such Financed Vehicle created by the related receivable. If this representation and warranty is breached and not cured with respect to a Financed Vehicle, CarMax Auto will be required to repurchase the related receivable from the Seller and the Seller will be required to repurchase the related receivable from the trust. However, a prior or equal lien for repairs or taxes could arise at any time during the term of a receivable. No notice will be given to the trustees or the securityholders in the event such a lien arises, and any prior or equal lien arising after the Closing Date for a trust would not give rise to a repurchase obligation.

 

Enforcement of Security Interests in Vehicles

 

The Servicer, on behalf of each trust, may take action to enforce a security interest in a Financed Vehicle securing the related receivables by repossession and resale of the Financed Vehicle. The actual repossession may be contracted out to third party contractors. Under the UCC and laws applicable in most states, a creditor can repossess a motor vehicle securing a loan by voluntary surrender, “self-help” repossession that is “peaceful” or, in the absence of voluntary surrender and the ability to repossess without breach of the peace, by judicial process. In the event of a default by the obligor, some jurisdictions require that the obligor be notified of the default and be given a time period within which to cure the default prior to repossession. Generally, this right of cure may only be exercised on a limited number of occasions during the term of the related contract. In addition, the UCC and other state laws

 

61


Table of Contents

require the secured party to provide the obligor with reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any public sale and/or the date after which any private sale of the collateral may be held. The obligor has the right to redeem the collateral prior to actual sale by paying the secured party the unpaid principal balance of the obligation, accrued interest plus reasonable expenses for repossessing, holding and preparing the collateral for disposition and arranging for its sale, plus, in some jurisdictions, reasonable attorneys’ fees or, in some states, by payment of delinquent installments or the unpaid balance.

 

The proceeds of resale of the repossessed vehicles generally will be applied first to the expenses of resale and repossession and then to the satisfaction of the indebtedness. While some states impose prohibitions or limitations on deficiency judgments if the net proceeds from resale do not cover the full amount of the indebtedness, a deficiency judgment can be sought in those states that do not prohibit or limit those judgments. In addition to the notice requirement, the UCC requires that every aspect of the sale or other disposition, including the method, manner, time, place and terms, be “commercially reasonable”. Generally, courts have held that when a sale is not “commercially reasonable”, the secured party loses its right to a deficiency judgment. In addition, the UCC permits the debtor or other interested party to recover for any loss caused by noncompliance with the provisions of the UCC. Also, prior to a sale, the UCC permits the debtor or other interested person to prohibit the secured party from disposing of the collateral if it is established that the secured party is not proceeding in accordance with the “default” provisions under the UCC. However, the deficiency judgment would be a personal judgment against the obligor for the shortfall, and a defaulting obligor can be expected to have very little capital or sources of income available following repossession. Therefore, in many cases, it may not be useful to seek a deficiency judgment or, if one is obtained, it may be settled at a significant discount or be uncollectible.

 

Occasionally, after resale of a repossessed vehicle and payment of all expenses and indebtedness, there is a surplus of funds. In that case, the UCC requires the creditor to remit the surplus to any holder of a subordinate lien with respect to the vehicle or, if no lienholder exists, the UCC requires the creditor to remit the surplus to the obligor.

 

Certain Bankruptcy Considerations

 

CarMax Auto and the Seller have taken steps in structuring the transactions contemplated by this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement to reduce the risk that a bankruptcy filing with respect to CarMax Auto would adversely affect the securities or that the Seller would become a debtor in a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy case. However, there can be no assurance that payments on the securities will not be delayed or reduced as a result of a bankruptcy proceeding.

 

CarMax Auto and the Seller each intend that the transfer of receivables from CarMax Auto to the Seller be treated as a sale. However, if CarMax Auto were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a court could take the position that the transfer should be treated as a pledge of the receivables to secure indebtedness of CarMax Auto rather than a sale. If a court were to reach such a conclusion, or if an attempt were made to litigate the issue, delays or reductions in payments on the securities could occur. In addition, if the transfer of the receivables from CarMax Auto to the Seller is treated as a pledge rather than a sale, a tax or government lien on the property of CarMax Auto arising before the transfer of a receivable to the Seller may have priority over the Seller’s interest in that receivable and, if CarMax Auto is the Servicer, a court may conclude that the trust does not have a perfected interest in cash collections on the receivables commingled with general funds of CarMax Auto. The Seller and CarMax Auto intend, and CarMax Auto will represent and warrant to the Seller in each receivables purchase agreement, that each transfer of receivables from CarMax Auto to the Seller constitutes a sale of the receivables rather than a pledge of the receivables to secure indebtedness of CarMax Auto. In addition, the Seller will receive a reasoned opinion of counsel on each Closing Date that, subject to various assumptions and qualification, the transfer of receivables from CarMax Auto to the Seller should properly constitute a sale

for bankruptcy purposes. However, there can be no assurance that a court would not conclude that a transfer of receivables should be treated as a pledge.

 

If CarMax Auto were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a court could take the position that the assets and liabilities of the Seller should be substantively consolidated with the assets and liabilities of CarMax Auto, in which case the receivables would be included in the estate of CarMax Auto even if the transfer of the receivables from CarMax Auto to the Seller were treated as a sale. The Seller and CarMax Auto have taken steps in structuring the transactions contemplated by this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement to reduce the risk of substantive consolidation. The limited liability company agreement of the Seller contains provisions restricting the activities of the Seller and requiring the Seller to follow specific operating procedures designed to support its treatment as an entity separate from CarMax Auto. In addition, the Seller will receive a reasoned opinion of counsel on each Closing Date that, subject to various assumptions and qualification, in the event of a bankruptcy filing with respect to CarMax Auto, the assets and liabilities of the Seller should not properly be substantively consolidated with the assets and liabilities of CarMax Auto. However, there can be no assurance that a court would not conclude that the assets and liabilities of the Seller should be consolidated with the assets and liabilities of CarMax Auto. If a court were to reach such a conclusion, or if an attempt were made to litigate the issue, delays or reductions in payments on the securities could occur.

 

Consumer Protection Laws

 

Numerous federal and state consumer protection laws and related regulations impose substantial requirements upon creditors and servicers involved in consumer finance. These laws include the Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations B and Z, the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940, the Military Reservist Relief Act, state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and state motor vehicle retail installment sale acts, retail installment sales acts and other similar laws. Also, the laws of certain states impose finance charge ceilings and other restrictions on consumer transactions and require contract disclosures in addition to those required under federal law. These requirements impose specific statutory liabilities upon creditors who fail to comply with their provisions. In some cases, this liability could affect the ability of an assignee such as the indenture trustee or the trustee, as applicable, to enforce consumer finance contracts such as the receivables.

 

The so-called “Holder-in-Due-Course Rule” of the Federal Trade Commission has the effect of subjecting a seller, and certain related lenders and their assignees, in a consumer credit transaction to all claims and defenses which the obligor in the transaction could assert against the seller of the goods. Liability under the Holder-in-Due-Course Rule is limited to the amounts paid by the obligor under the contract, and the holder of the contract may also be unable to collect any balance remaining due thereunder from the obligor. The Holder-in-Due-Course Rule is generally duplicated by the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, other state statutes or the common law in certain states.

 

Most of the receivables will be subject to the requirements of the Holder-in-Due-Course Rule. Accordingly, the trust, as holder of the receivables, will be subject to any claims or defenses that the purchaser of a Financed Vehicle may assert against the seller of the Financed Vehicle. Such claims are limited to a maximum liability equal to the amounts paid by the obligor on the receivable.

 

If an obligor were successful in asserting any such claim or defense as described in the two immediately preceding paragraphs, such claim or defense would constitute a breach of a representation and warranty under the receivables purchase agreement and the sale and servicing agreement or the

 

63


Table of Contents

pooling and serving agreement, as applicable, and would create an obligation of the Seller to repurchase the receivable unless the breach were cured.

 

Courts have applied general equitable principles to secured parties pursuing repossession or litigation involving deficiency balances. These equitable principles may have the effect of relieving an obligor from some or all of the legal consequences of a default.

 

In several cases, consumers have asserted that the self-help remedies of secured parties under the UCC and related laws violate the due process protection of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Courts have generally either upheld the notice provisions of the UCC and related laws as reasonable or have found that the creditor’s repossession and resale do not involve sufficient state action to afford constitutional protection to consumers.

 

CarMax Auto will represent and warrant to the Seller in each receivables purchase agreement, and the Seller will represent and warrant to the related trust in each sale and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable, that each related receivable complies as of the related Closing Date in all material respects with all requirements of law. If an obligor has a claim against the trust for violation of any law and that claim materially and adversely affects the trust’s interest in a receivable, and that violation is not cured, CarMax Auto would be required to repurchase the receivable from the Seller and the Seller would be required to repurchase the receivable from the trust.

 

Other Matters

 

In addition to the laws limiting or prohibiting deficiency judgments, numerous other statutory provisions, including the Bankruptcy Code and related state laws, may interfere with or affect the ability of a creditor to realize upon collateral or enforce a deficiency judgment. For example, in a Chapter 13 proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, a court may prevent a creditor from repossessing a motor vehicle and, as part of the rehabilitation plan, reduce the amount of the secured indebtedness to the market value of the motor vehicle at the time of bankruptcy, as determined by the court, leaving the party providing financing as a general unsecured creditor for the remainder of the indebtedness. A bankruptcy court may also reduce the monthly payments due under the related contract or change the rate of interest and time of repayment of the indebtedness.

 

Under the terms of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Relief Act of 1940, an obligor who enters the military service after the origination of that obligor’s receivable (including an obligor who is a member of the National Guard or is in reserve status at the time of the origination of the obligor’s receivable and is later called to active duty) is entitled to have the interest rate reduced and capped at 6% per annum for the duration of the military service, may be entitled to a stay of proceedings on foreclosures and similar actions and may have the maturity of the loan extended or the payments lowered and the payment schedule adjusted. In addition, pursuant to the laws of various states, under certain circumstances residents thereof called into active duty with the National Guard or the reserves can apply to a court to delay payments on retail installment contracts or installment loans such as the receivables. Application of either of the two foregoing acts or similar acts under state law would adversely affect, for an indeterminate period of time, the ability of the Servicer to foreclose on an affected receivable during the obligor’s period of active duty status. Thus, if that receivable goes into default, there may be delays and losses occasioned by the inability to exercise the related trust’s rights with respect to the receivable and the related Financed Vehicle in a timely fashion.

Material Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

The following is a summary of material federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of securities to investors who purchase the securities in the initial distribution and who hold the securities as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code. The summary does not purport to deal with all federal income tax consequences applicable to all categories of holders, some of which may be subject to special rules. For example, it does not discuss the tax treatment of noteholders or certificateholders that are insurance companies, regulated investment companies, dealers in securities, holders that hold the notes or certificates, if any, as part of a hedge, straddle, “synthetic security” or other integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes and holders whose functional currency is not the United States dollar.

 

The following summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and judicial or ruling authority, all of which are subject to change, which change may be retroactive. Each trust will be provided with an opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the Seller, regarding certain federal income tax matters discussed below. A legal opinion, however, is not binding on the IRS or the courts. No ruling on any of the issues discussed below will be sought from the IRS. For purposes of the following summary, references to the trust, the notes, the certificates and related terms, parties and documents shall be deemed to refer, unless otherwise specified herein, to each trust and the notes, certificates, if any, and related terms, parties and documents applicable to the trust. Moreover, there are no cases or IRS rulings on similar transactions involving both debt and equity interests issued by a trust with terms similar to those of the notes and the certificates, if any. As a result, the IRS may disagree with all or a part of the discussion below. We suggest that prospective investors consult their own tax advisors in determining the federal, state, local, foreign and any other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes and the certificates, if any.

 

Unless otherwise specified, the following summary relates only to holders of the notes or certificates that are United States Persons. If a partnership (including for this purpose any entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of notes or certificates, the treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. A holder of the notes or certificates that is a partnership and partners in such partnership should consult their tax advisors about the United States federal income tax consequences of holding and disposing of the notes or certificates, as the case may be.

 

McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the Seller, is of the opinion that:

 

    Unless the prospectus supplement specifies that the related trust will be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, assuming compliance with all of the provisions of the applicable agreement, for federal income tax purposes:

 

  (1)   the notes will be characterized as debt unless otherwise stated in the prospectus supplement; and

 

  (2)   the trust will not be characterized as an association, or a publicly traded partnership, taxable as a corporation.

 

    If the prospectus supplement indicates that the related trust will be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, assuming compliance with all of the provisions of the applicable agreement, for federal income tax purposes:

 

65


Table of Contents
  (1)   the trust will be characterized as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part 1 of Subchapter J of the Internal Revenue Code and not as an association, or publicly traded partnership, taxable as a corporation; and

 

  (2)   each certificateholder will be treated as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in the assets included in the trust.

 

    Therefore, in either case, the trust will not be subject to an entity level tax for federal income tax purposes.

 

Each opinion is an expression of an opinion only, is not a guarantee of results and is not binding on the IRS or any third party.

 

Trusts Treated as Partnerships

 

Tax Characterization of the Trust as a Partnership

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the Seller, a trust that is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes will not be an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the trust itself will not be subject to tax for federal income tax purposes. This opinion will be based on the assumption that the terms of the trust agreement and related documents will be complied with, and on counsel’s conclusions that the nature of the income of the trust will exempt it from the rule that certain publicly traded partnerships are taxable as corporations.

 

If a trust were taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, the trust would be subject to corporate income tax on its taxable income. The trust’s taxable income would include all its income on the receivables and may possibly be reduced by its interest expense on the notes. Any corporate income tax could materially reduce cash available to make payments on the notes and distributions on the certificates, if any, and the related certificateholders could be liable for any tax that is unpaid by the trust.

 

Tax Consequences to Holders of the Notes

 

Treatment of the Notes as Indebtedness. The noteholders will agree by their purchase of notes, to treat the notes as debt for federal income tax purposes. In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the notes will be classified as debt for federal income tax purposes. The discussion below assumes that this characterization is correct.

 

Original Issue Discount, etc. The discussion below assumes that all payments on the notes are denominated in United States dollars, that principal and interest is payable on the notes and that the notes are not indexed securities or entitled to principal or interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no payments. Moreover, the discussion assumes that the interest formula for the notes meets the requirements for “qualified stated interest” under the Treasury regulations relating to original issue discount (or, the original issue discount regulations), and that any original issue discount on the notes, i.e., any excess of the principal amount of the notes over their issue price, does not exceed a de minimis amount, i.e.,  1/4% of their principal amount multiplied by their weighted average maturities included in their term, all within the meaning of the original issue discount regulations. If these conditions are not satisfied with respect to the notes, additional tax considerations with respect to the notes will be provided in the related prospectus supplement.

 

66


Table of Contents

Interest Income on the Notes. Based on the foregoing assumptions, except as discussed in the following paragraph, the notes will not be considered to have been issued with original issue discount. The stated interest thereon will be taxable to a noteholder as ordinary interest income when received or accrued in accordance with the noteholder’s method of tax accounting. Under the original issue discount regulations, a holder of a note issued with a de minimis amount of original issue discount must include any original issue discount in income, on a pro rata basis, as principal payments are made on the note. A subsequent purchaser who buys a note for more or less than its principal amount will generally be subject, respectively, to the premium amortization or market discount rules of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

A holder of a note having a fixed maturity of one year or less, known as a “Short-Term Note”, may be subject to special rules. An accrual basis holder of a Short-Term Note, and certain cash method holders, including regulated investment companies, as set forth in Section 1281 of the Internal Revenue Code, generally would be required to report interest income as interest accrues on a straight-line basis over the term of each interest period. Other cash basis holders of a Short-Term Note would, in general, be required to report interest income as interest is paid, or, if earlier, upon the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note. However, a cash basis holder of a Short-Term Note reporting interest income as it is paid may be required to defer a portion of any interest expense otherwise deductible on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry the Short-Term Note until the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note. A cash basis taxpayer may elect under Section 1281 of the Internal Revenue Code to accrue interest income on all nongovernment debt obligations with a term of one year or less, in which case the taxpayer would include interest on the Short-Term Note in income as it accrues, but would not be subject to the interest expense deferral rule referred to in the preceding sentence. Certain special rules apply if a Short-Term Note is purchased for more or less than its principal amount.

 

Sale or Other Disposition. If a noteholder sells a note, the holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale and the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note. The adjusted tax basis of a note to a particular noteholder will equal the holder’s cost for the note, increased by any market discount and original issue discount previously included by the noteholder in income with respect to the note and decreased by the amount of bond premium, if any, previously amortized and by the amount of principal payments previously received by the noteholder with respect to the note. Any gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the note was held as a capital asset, except for gain representing accrued interest and accrued market discount not previously included in income. Any capital gain recognized upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of a note will be long-term capital gain if the seller’s holding period is more than one year and will be short-term capital gain if the seller’s holding period is one year or less. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations. We suggest that prospective investors consult with their own tax advisors concerning the United States federal tax consequences of the sale, exchange or other disposition of a note.

 

Foreign Holders. Interest payments made, or accrued, to a noteholder who is a Foreign Person that is an individual or corporation for federal income tax purposes generally will be considered “portfolio interest”, and generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax and withholding if the interest is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by the Foreign Person and the Foreign Person:

 

    is not actually or constructively a “10 percent shareholder” of the trust or the Seller (including a holder of 10% of the outstanding certificates, if any), a “controlled foreign corporation” with respect to which the trust or the Seller is a “related person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code or a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business; and

 

67


Table of Contents
    provides the indenture trustee or other person who is otherwise required to withhold United States tax with respect to the notes with an appropriate statement, on IRS Form W-8BEN or a similar form, signed under penalty of perjury, certifying that the beneficial owner of the note is a Foreign Person and providing the Foreign Person’s name and address.

 

In the case of a Foreign Person that is an individual or a corporation (or an entity treated as such for federal income tax purposes), if a note is held through a securities clearing organization or certain other financial institutions, the organization or institution may provide the relevant signed statement to the withholding agent; in that case, however, the signed statement must be accompanied by a copy of the IRS Form W-8BEN or substitute form provided by the Foreign Person that owns the note. If such interest is not portfolio interest, then it will be subject to withholding tax unless the Foreign Person provides a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN claiming an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the benefit of a tax treaty or an IRS Form W-8ECI stating that interest paid is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with the Foreign Person’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If the interest is effectively connected income, the Foreign Person, although exempt from the withholding tax discussed above, will be subject to United States federal income tax on that interest at graduated rates. A Foreign Person other than an individual or corporation (or an entity treated as such for federal income tax purposes) holding the notes on its own behalf may have substantially increased reporting requirements. In particular, in case of notes held by a foreign partnership or foreign trust, the partners or beneficiaries, as the case may be, may be required to provide certain additional information.

 

Any capital gain realized on the sale, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note by a Foreign Person will be exempt from United States federal income and withholding tax, provided that the gain is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the Foreign Person and, in the case of an individual Foreign Person, the Foreign Person is not present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year and does not otherwise have a “tax home” within the United States.

 

Backup Withholding. Each holder of a note, other than an exempt holder such as a corporation, tax-exempt organization, qualified pension and profit-sharing trust, individual retirement account or nonresident alien who provides certification as to status as a nonresident, will be required to provide, under penalty of perjury, a certificate containing the holder’s name, address, correct federal taxpayer identification number and a statement that the holder is not subject to backup withholding. Should a nonexempt noteholder fail to provide the required certification, the trust will be required to backup withhold a certain portion of the amount otherwise payable to the holder, and remit the withheld amount to the IRS as a credit against the holder’s federal income tax liability.

 

Possible Alternative Treatments of the Notes. If, contrary to the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, the IRS successfully asserted that one or more of the notes did not represent debt for federal income tax purposes, the notes might be treated as equity interests in the trust. If so treated, the trust might be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation with potentially adverse tax consequences, and the publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation would not be able to reduce its taxable income by deductions for interest expense on notes recharacterized as equity. Alternatively, and most likely in the view of McGuireWoods LLP, the trust would be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable as a corporation because it would meet certain qualifying income tests. Treatment of the notes as equity interests in such a partnership would probably be treated as guaranteed payments, which could result in adverse tax consequences to certain holders. For example, income to certain tax-exempt entities, including pension funds, would be “unrelated business taxable income”, income to foreign holders generally would be subject to United States tax and United States tax return filing and withholding requirements, and individual holders might be subject to certain limitations on their ability to deduct their share of trust expenses.

Tax Consequences to Holders of the Certificates

 

Treatment of the Trust as a Partnership. Unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the Seller will agree, and the certificateholders will agree by their purchase of certificates, to treat the trust as a partnership for purposes of federal and state income tax, franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income, with the assets of the partnership being the assets held by the trust, the partners of the partnership being the certificateholders, including the Seller in its capacity as recipient of distributions from any reserve account, and the notes being debt of the related partnership. However, the proper characterization of the arrangement involving the trust, the certificates, the notes, the Seller and CarMax Auto is not clear because there is no authority on transactions closely comparable to that contemplated herein.

 

A Variety of Alternative Characterizations are Possible. For example, because the certificates have certain features characteristic of debt, the certificates might be considered debt of the Seller or the trust. That characterization would not result in materially adverse tax consequences to certificateholders as compared to the consequences from treatment of the certificates as equity in a partnership, described below. See “Tax Consequences to Holders of the Notes” above. The following discussion assumes that the certificates represent equity interests in a partnership.

 

Indexed Securities, etc. The following discussion assumes that all payments on the certificates are denominated in United States dollars, principal and interest are distributed on the certificates, a series of securities includes a single class of certificates and that the certificates are not indexed securities or entitled to principal or interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no payments. If these conditions are not satisfied with respect to any given series of certificates, additional tax considerations with respect to the certificates will be disclosed in the related prospectus supplement.

 

Partnership Taxation. As a partnership, the trust will not be subject to federal income tax. Rather, each certificateholder will be required to separately take into account the holder’s allocated share of income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the trust. The trust’s income will consist primarily of interest and finance charges earned on the receivables, including appropriate adjustments for market discount, original issue discount and bond premium, and any gain upon collection or disposition of receivables. The trust’s deductions will consist primarily of interest accruing with respect to the notes, servicing and other fees, and losses or deductions upon collection or disposition of receivables.

 

The tax items of a partnership are allocable to the partners in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury regulations and the partnership agreement, in this case, the trust agreement and related documents. The trust agreement will provide, in general, that the certificateholders will be allocated taxable income of the trust for each month equal to the sum of:

 

    the interest that accrues on the certificates in accordance with their terms for that month, including interest accruing at the applicable pass-through or certificate rate for that month and interest on amounts previously due on the certificates but not yet distributed;

 

    any trust income attributable to discount on the receivables that corresponds to any excess of the principal amount of the certificates over their initial issue price;

 

    any prepayment premium payable to the certificateholders for that month; and

 

    any other amounts of income payable to the certificateholders for that month.

Table of Contents

That allocation will be reduced by any amortization by the trust of premium on receivables that corresponds to any excess of the issue price of certificates over their principal amount. All remaining taxable income of the trust will be allocated to the Seller. Based on the economic arrangement of the parties, this approach for allocating trust income should be permissible under applicable Treasury regulations, although no assurance can be given that the IRS would not require a greater amount of income to be allocated to certificateholders. Moreover, even under the foregoing method of allocation, certificateholders may be allocated income equal to the entire pass-through or certificate rate plus the other items described above even though the trust might not have sufficient cash to make current cash distributions of these amounts. Thus, cash basis holders will in effect be required to report income from the certificates on the accrual basis and certificateholders may become liable for taxes on trust income even if they have not received cash from the trust to pay these taxes. In addition, because tax allocations and tax reporting will be done on a uniform basis for all certificateholders but certificateholders may be purchasing certificates at different times and at different prices, certificateholders may be required to report on their tax returns taxable income that is greater or less than the amount reported to them by the trust. See “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences—Trusts Treated as Partnerships—Allocations Between Transferors and Transferees”.

 

All of the taxable income allocated to a certificateholder that is a pension, profit sharing plan, Plan or other tax-exempt entity (including an individual retirement account) will constitute “unrelated business taxable income” generally taxable to the holder under the Internal Revenue Code.

 

An individual taxpayer’s share of expenses of the trust (including fees to the Servicer but not interest expense) would be miscellaneous itemized deductions. Those deductions might be disallowed to the individual in whole or in part and might result in the holder being taxed on an amount of income that exceeds the amount of cash actually distributed to the holder over the life of the trust.

 

The trust intends to make all tax calculations relating to income and allocations to certificateholders on an aggregate basis. If the IRS were to require that these calculations be made separately for each receivable, the trust might be required to incur additional expense but it is believed that there would not be a material adverse effect on certificateholders.

 

Discount and Premium. Unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, CarMax Auto and the Seller will represent that the receivables were not issued with original issue discount, and, therefore, the trust should not have original issue discount income. However, the purchase price paid by the trust for the receivables may be greater or less than the remaining principal balance of the receivables at the time of purchase. If so, the receivables will have been acquired at a premium or discount, as the case may be. As indicated above, the trust will make this calculation on an aggregate basis, but might be required to recompute it on a receivable-by-receivable basis.

 

If the trust acquires the receivables at a market discount or premium, the trust will elect to include that discount in income currently as it accrues over the life of the receivables or to offset that premium against interest income on the receivables. As indicated above, a portion of that market discount income or premium deduction may be allocated to certificateholders.

 

Section 708 Termination. Under Section 708 of the Internal Revenue Code, the trust will be deemed to terminate for federal income tax purposes if 50% or more of the capital and profits interests in the trust are sold or exchanged within a 12-month period. Pursuant to final Treasury regulations issued on May 9, 1997, if such a termination occurs, the trust will be considered to have contributed the assets consisting of the old partnership to a new partnership in exchange for interests in the partnership. The interests would be deemed distributed to the partners of the old partnership in liquidation thereof, which would not constitute a taxable sale or exchange.

Table of Contents

Disposition of Certificates. Generally, capital gain or loss will be recognized on a sale of certificates in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the seller’s tax basis in the certificates sold. A certificateholder’s tax basis in a certificate will generally equal the holder’s cost increased by the holder’s share of trust income (includable in income) and decreased by any distributions received with respect to the certificate. In addition, both the tax basis in the certificates and the amount realized on a sale of a certificate would include the holder’s share of the principal amount of the notes and other liabilities of the trust. A holder acquiring certificates at different prices may be required to maintain a single aggregate adjusted tax basis in the certificates, and, upon sale or other disposition of some of the certificates, allocate a portion of that aggregate tax basis to the certificates sold, rather than maintaining a separate tax basis in each certificate for purposes of computing gain or loss on a sale of that certificate.

 

Any gain on the sale of a certificate attributable to the holder’s share of unrecognized accrued market discount on the receivables would generally be treated as ordinary income to the holder and would give rise to special tax reporting requirements. The trust does not expect to have any other assets that would give rise to these special reporting requirements. Thus, to avoid those special reporting requirements, the trust will elect to include market discount in income as it accrues.

 

If a certificateholder is required to recognize an aggregate amount of income, not including income attributable to disallowed itemized deductions described above, over the life of the certificates that exceeds the aggregate cash distributions with respect thereto, the excess will generally give rise to a capital loss upon the retirement of the certificates.

 

Allocations Between Transferors and Transferees. In general, the trust’s taxable income and losses will be determined monthly and the tax items for a particular calendar month will be apportioned among the certificateholders in proportion to the principal amount of certificates owned by them as of the close of the last day of the month. As a result, a holder purchasing certificates may be allocated tax items, which will affect its tax liability and tax basis, attributable to periods before the actual transaction.

 

The use of a monthly convention may not be permitted by existing regulations. If a monthly convention is not allowed, or only applies to transfers of less than all of the partner’s interest, taxable income or losses of the trust might be reallocated among the certificateholders. The Seller is authorized to revise the trust’s method of allocation between transferors and transferees to conform to a method permitted by future regulations.

 

Section 754 Election. In the event that a certificateholder sells its certificates at a profit or loss, the purchasing certificateholder will have a higher or lower basis in the certificates than the selling certificateholder had. The tax basis of the trust’s assets will not be adjusted to reflect that higher or lower basis unless the trust were to file an election under Section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code. In order to avoid the administrative complexities that would be involved in keeping accurate accounting records, as well as potentially onerous information reporting requirements, the trust will not make that election. As a result, certificateholders might be allocated a greater or lesser amount of trust income than would be appropriate based on their own purchase price for the certificates.

 

Administrative Matters. The trustee is required to keep or have kept complete and accurate books of the trust. The books will be maintained for financial reporting and tax purposes on an accrual basis and the fiscal year of the trust will be the calendar year. The trustee will file a partnership information return, IRS Form 1065, with the IRS for each taxable year of the trust and will report each certificateholder’s allocable share of items of trust income and expense to holders and the IRS on Schedule K-1. The trust will provide the Schedule K-1 information to nominees that fail to provide the trust with the information statement described below and the nominees will be required to forward the information to the beneficial owners of the certificates. Generally, holders must file tax returns that are consistent with the information

 

71


Table of Contents

return filed by the trust or be subject to penalties unless the holder notifies the IRS of all such inconsistencies.

 

Under Section 6031 of the Internal Revenue Code, any person that holds certificates as a nominee at any time during a calendar year is required to furnish the trust with a statement containing certain information on the nominee, the beneficial owners and the certificates so held. The information includes the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the nominee and, as to each beneficial owner:

 

    the name, address and identification number of the person;

 

    whether the person is a United States Person, a tax-exempt entity or a foreign government, an international organization, or any wholly owned agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing; and

 

    certain information on certificates that were held, bought or sold on behalf of the person throughout the year.

 

In addition, brokers and financial institutions that hold certificates through a nominee are required to furnish directly to the trust information as to themselves and their ownership of certificates. A clearing agency registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act, is not required to furnish this information statement to the trust. The information referred to above for any calendar year must be furnished to the trust on or before the following January 31. Nominees, brokers and financial institutions that fail to provide the trust with the information described above may be subject to penalties.

 

The Seller will be designated as the tax matters partner in the related trust agreement or sale and servicing agreement and, therefore, will be responsible for representing the certificateholders in any dispute with the IRS. The Internal Revenue Code provides for administrative examination of a partnership as if the partnership were a separate and distinct taxpayer. Generally, the statute of limitations for partnership items does not expire before three years after the date on which the partnership information return is filed. Any adverse determination following an audit of the return of the trust by the appropriate taxing authorities could result in an adjustment of the returns of the certificateholders, and, under certain circumstances, a certificateholder may be precluded from separately litigating a proposed adjustment to the items of the trust. An adjustment could also result in an audit of a certificateholder’s returns and adjustments of items not related to the income and losses of the trust.

 

Tax Consequences to Foreign Certificateholders. It is not clear whether the trust would be considered to be engaged in a trade or business in the United States for purposes of federal withholding taxes with respect to non-United States persons because there is no clear authority dealing with that issue under facts substantially similar to those described herein. Although it is not expected that the trust would be engaged in a trade or business in the United States for these purposes, the trust will withhold as if it were so engaged in order to protect the trust from possible adverse consequences of a failure to withhold. The trust expects to withhold on the portion of its taxable income that is allocable to foreign certificateholders pursuant to Section 1446 of the Internal Revenue Code, as if the income were effectively connected to a United States trade or business, at the highest rate of tax applicable to their United States domestic counterparts in the case of foreign corporations, partnerships, trusts and estates and individual nonresident aliens, respectively. Subsequent adoption of Treasury regulations or the issuance of other administrative pronouncements may require the trust to change its withholding procedures. In determining a holder’s withholding status, the trust may rely on IRS Form W-8BEN, Internal Revenue Code Form W-9 or the holder’s certification of nonforeign status signed under penalty of perjury.

 

72


Table of Contents

Each foreign holder might be required to file a United States individual or corporate income tax return on its share of the trust’s income, and in the case of a corporation, may be subject to the branch profits tax. Each foreign holder must obtain a taxpayer identification number from the IRS and submit that number to the trust on IRS Form W-8BEN, or substantially identical form, in order to assure appropriate crediting of the taxes withheld. A foreign holder generally would be entitled to file with the IRS a claim for refund with respect to taxes withheld by the trust, taking the position that no taxes were due because the trust was not engaged in a United States trade or business. However, interest payments made, or accrued, to a certificateholder who is a Foreign Person generally will be considered guaranteed payments to the extent the payments are determined without regard to the income of the trust. If these interest payments are properly characterized as guaranteed payments, then the interest will not be considered “portfolio interest”. As a result, certificateholders will be subject to United States federal income tax and withholding tax unless eliminated pursuant to an applicable treaty. In that case, a foreign holder would only be entitled to claim a refund for that portion of the taxes in excess of the taxes that should be withheld with respect to the guaranteed payments.

 

A Foreign Person that is not an individual or corporation (or an entity treated as such for federal income tax purposes) may be subject to more complex rules. In particular, in the case of certificates held by a foreign partnership or foreign trust, the partners or beneficiaries, as the case may be, may be required to provide certain additional information.

 

Backup Withholding. Distributions made on the certificates and proceeds from the sale of the certificates will be subject to “backup” withholding tax if, in general, the certificateholder fails to comply with certain identification procedures, unless the holder is an exempt recipient under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Trusts in Which all Certificates are Retained by the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller

 

Tax Characterization of the Trust

 

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the Seller, a trust which issues one or more classes of notes to investors and all the certificates of which are retained by the Seller or an affiliate thereof will not be an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the trust itself will not be subject to tax for federal income tax purposes. This opinion will be based on the assumption that the terms of the trust agreement and related documents will be complied with, and on counsel’s conclusions that the trust will constitute a mere security arrangement for the issuance of debt by the single certificateholder.

 

Treatment of the Notes as Indebtedness. CarMax Auto and the Seller will agree, and the noteholders will agree by their purchase of notes, to treat the notes as debt for federal income tax purposes. In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, except as otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, the notes will be classified as debt for federal income tax purposes. Assuming this characterization of the notes is correct, the federal income tax consequences to noteholders described above under “Trusts Treated as Partnerships—Tax Consequences to Holders of the Notes” would apply to the noteholders.

 

If, contrary to the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, the IRS successfully asserted that one or more classes of notes did not represent debt for federal income tax purposes, this class or classes of notes might be treated as equity interests in the trust. If so treated, the trust might be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation with potentially adverse tax consequences, and the publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation would not be able to reduce its taxable income by deductions for interest expense on notes recharacterized as equity. Alternatively, and more likely in the view of

 

73


Table of Contents

McGuireWoods LLP, the trust would most likely be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable as a corporation because it would meet certain qualifying income tests. Nonetheless, treatment of notes as equity interests in a partnership could have adverse tax consequences to certain holders of the notes. For example, income to certain tax-exempt entities, including pension funds, might be treated as “unrelated business taxable income”, income to foreign holders may be subject to United States withholding tax and United States tax return filing requirements, and individual holders might be subject to certain limitations on their ability to deduct their share of trust expenses. In the event one or more classes of notes were treated as interests in a partnership, the consequences governing the certificates as equity interests in a partnership described above under “Trusts Treated as Partnerships—Tax Consequences to Holders of the Certificates” would apply to the holders of the notes.

 

Trusts Treated as Grantor Trusts

 

Tax Characterization of the Trust as a Grantor Trust

 

If a partnership election is not made, McGuireWoods LLP, as federal tax counsel to the Seller, is of the opinion that the trust will be characterized as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part 1 of Subchapter J of the Internal Revenue Code and not as an association, or publicly traded partnership, taxable as a corporation. Therefore, the trust itself will not be subject to tax for federal income tax purposes. In this case, certificateholders will be treated for federal income tax purposes as owners of a portion of the trust’s assets as described below.

 

Characterization. Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be treated as the equitable owner of a pro rata undivided interest in each of the receivables in the trust, including any principal and interest payments received by the trust. Any amounts received by a Grantor Trust Certificateholder in lieu of amounts due with respect to any receivable because of a default or delinquency in payment will be treated for federal income tax purposes as having the same character as the payments they replace.

 

Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be required to report on its federal income tax return in accordance with the Grantor Trust Certificateholder’s method of accounting its pro rata share of the entire income from the receivables in the trust represented by Grantor Trust Certificates, including interest, original interest discount, if any, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any gain recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges received by the Servicer. Under Sections 162 or 212 of the Internal Revenue Code, each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be entitled to deduct its pro rata share of servicing fees, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any loss recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges retained by the Servicer, provided that these amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered to the trust. Grantor Trust Certificateholders that are individuals, estates or trusts will be entitled to deduct their share of expenses only to the extent these expenses plus all other Section 212 expenses exceed two percent of their adjusted gross income. In addition, Section 68 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that the amount of itemized deductions otherwise allowable for an individual whose adjusted gross income exceeds a specified amount will be reduced by the lesser of 3% of the excess of the individual’s adjusted gross income over that amount or 80% of the amount of itemized deductions otherwise allowable for the taxable year. Further, Grantor Trust Certificateholders, other than corporations, subject to the alternative minimum tax may not deduct miscellaneous itemized deductions in determining such holders’ alternative minimum taxable income. A Grantor Trust Certificateholder using the cash method of accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and deductions as and when collected by or paid to the Servicer. A Grantor Trust Certificateholder using an accrual method of accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and deductions as they become due or are paid to the Servicer, whichever is earlier. If the servicing fees paid to the Servicer are deemed to exceed reasonable servicing compensation, the amount of that excess could be considered as an ownership interest retained by the Servicer (or any person to whom the Servicer assigned for value all or a portion of

 

74


Table of Contents

the servicing fees) in a portion of the interest payments on the receivables. The receivables would then be subject to the “stripped bond” rules of the Internal Revenue Code discussed below.

 

Stripped Bonds. If the servicing fees on the receivables are deemed to exceed reasonable servicing compensation, based on recent guidance by the IRS, each purchaser of a Grantor Trust Certificate will be treated as the purchaser of a stripped bond which generally should be treated as a single debt instrument issued on the day it is purchased for purposes of calculating any original issue discount. Generally, under the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations, if the discount on a stripped bond is larger than a de minimis amount, as calculated for purposes of the original issue discount rules of the Internal Revenue Code, the stripped bond will be considered to have been issued with original issue discount. See “Original Issue Discount”. The original issue discount on a Grantor Trust Certificate will be the excess of the Grantor Trust Certificate’s stated redemption price over its issue price. The issue price of a Grantor Trust Certificate as to any purchaser will be equal to the price paid by the purchaser of the Grantor Trust Certificate. The stated redemption price of a Grantor Trust Certificate will be the sum of all payments to be made on the Grantor Trust Certificate other than “qualified stated interest”, if any. Based on the preamble to the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations, McGuireWoods LLP is of the opinion that, although the matter is not entirely clear, the interest income on the certificates at the sum of the pass through rate and the portion of the servicing fee rate that does not constitute excess servicing will be treated as “qualified stated interest” within the meaning of the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations and that income will be so treated in the trustee’s tax information reporting. Notice will be given in the applicable pricing supplement when it is determined that Grantor Trust Certificates will be issued with greater than de minimis original issue discount.

 

Original Issue Discount on Stripped Bonds. If the stripped bonds have more than a de minimis amount of original issue discount, the special rules of the Internal Revenue Code relating to “original issue discount”, currently Sections 1271 through 1273 and 1275 of the Internal Revenue Code will be applicable to a Grantor Trust Certificateholder’s interest in those receivables treated as stripped bonds. Generally, a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an interest in a stripped bond issued or acquired with original issue discount must include in gross income the sum of the “daily portions”, as defined below, of the original issue discount on that stripped bond for each day on which it owns a certificate, including the date of purchase but excluding the date of disposition. In the case of an original Grantor Trust Certificateholder, the daily portions of original issue discount with respect to a stripped bond generally would be determined as follows. A calculation will be made of the portion of original issue discount that accrues on the stripped bond during each successive monthly accrual period, or shorter period in respect of the date of original issue or the final Distribution Date. This will be done, in the case of each full monthly accrual period, by adding the present value of all remaining payments to be received on the stripped bond under the prepayment assumption used in respect of the stripped bonds and any payments received during that accrual period, and subtracting from that total the “adjusted issue price” of the stripped bond at the beginning of that accrual period. No representation is made that the stripped bonds will prepay at any prepayment assumption. The “adjusted issue price” of a stripped bond at the beginning of the first accrual period is its issue price, as determined for purposes of the original issue discount rules of the Internal Revenue Code, and the “adjusted issue price” of a stripped bond at the beginning of a subsequent accrual period is the “adjusted issue price” at the beginning of the immediately preceding accrual period plus the amount of original issue discount allocable to that accrual period and reduced by the amount of any payment, other than “qualified stated interest”, made at the end of or during that accrual period. The original issue discount accruing during that accrual period will then be divided by the number of days in the period to determine the daily portion of original issue discount for each day in the period. With respect to an initial accrual period shorter than a full monthly accrual period, the daily portions of original issue discount must be determined according to an appropriate allocation under either an exact or approximate method set forth in the original issue discount regulations, or some other

 

75


Table of Contents

reasonable method, provided that the method is consistent with the method used to determine the yield to maturity of the stripped bonds.

 

With respect to stripped bonds, the method of calculating original issue discount as described above will cause the accrual of original issue discount to either increase or decrease, but never below zero, in any given accrual period to reflect the fact that prepayments are occurring at a faster or slower rate than the prepayment assumption used in respect of the stripped bonds. We suggest that subsequent purchasers that purchase stripped bonds at more than a de minimis discount consult their tax advisors with respect to the proper method to accrue the original issue discount.

 

Market Discount if Stripped Bond Rules Do Not Apply. A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an undivided interest in receivables may be subject to the market discount rules of Sections 1276 through 1278 of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent an undivided interest in a receivable is considered to have been purchased at a “market discount”. Generally, the amount of market discount is equal to the excess of the portion of the principal amount of the receivable allocable to the holder’s undivided interest over the holder’s tax basis in the interest. Market discount with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate will be considered to be zero if the amount allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate is less than 0.25% of the Grantor Trust Certificate’s stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the weighted average maturity remaining after the date of purchase. Treasury regulations implementing the market discount rules have not yet been issued; therefore, we suggest that investors consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules and the advisability of making any of the elections allowed under Sections 1276 through 1278 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

The Internal Revenue Code provides that any principal payment, whether a scheduled payment or a prepayment, or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond shall be treated as ordinary income to the extent that it does not exceed the accrued market discount at the time of the payment. The amount of accrued market discount for purposes of determining the tax treatment of subsequent principal payments or dispositions of the market discount bond is to be reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

 

The Internal Revenue Code also grants the Treasury Department authority to issue regulations providing for the computation of accrued market discount on debt instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one installment. While the Treasury Department has not yet issued regulations, rules described in the relevant legislative history will apply. Under those rules, the holder of a market discount bond may elect to accrue market discount either on the basis of a constant interest rate or according to one of the following methods. If a Grantor Trust Certificate is issued with original issue discount, the amount of market discount that accrues during any accrual period would be equal to the product of the total remaining market discount and a fraction, the numerator of which is the original issue discount accruing during the period and the denominator of which is the total remaining original issue discount at the beginning of the accrual period. For Grantor Trust Certificates issued without original issue discount, the amount of market discount that accrues during a period is equal to the product of the total remaining market discount and a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of stated interest paid during the accrual period and the denominator of which is the total amount of stated interest remaining to be paid at the beginning of the accrual period. For purposes of calculating market discount under any of the above methods in the case of instruments, such as the Grantor Trust Certificates, that provide for payments that may be accelerated by reason of prepayments of other obligations securing the instruments, the same prepayment assumption applicable to calculating the accrual of original issue discount will apply. Because the regulations described above have not been issued, it is impossible to predict what effect those regulations might have on the tax treatment of a Grantor Trust Certificate purchased at a discount or premium in the secondary market.

 

76


Table of Contents

A holder who acquired a Grantor Trust Certificate at a market discount also may be required to defer a portion of its interest deductions for the taxable year attributable to any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Grantor Trust Certificate purchased with market discount. For these purposes, the de minimis rule referred above applies. Any deferred interest expense would not exceed the market discount that accrues during the taxable year and is, in general, allowed as a deduction not later than the year in which the market discount is includable in income. If the holder elects to include market discount in income currently as it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired by the holder in that taxable year or thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above will not apply.

 

Premium. The price paid for a Grantor Trust Certificate by a holder will be allocated to the holder’s undivided interest in each receivable based on each receivable’s relative fair market value, so that the holder’s undivided interest in each receivable will have its own tax basis. A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an interest in receivables at a premium may elect to amortize the premium under a constant interest method. Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on the Grantor Trust Certificate. The basis for the Grantor Trust Certificate will be reduced to the extent that amortizable premium is applied to offset interest payments. It is not clear whether a reasonable prepayment assumption should be used in computing amortization of premium allowable under Section 171 of the Internal Revenue Code. A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a Grantor Trust Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to have made an election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having amortizable bond premium that the Grantor Trust Certificateholder acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.

 

If a premium is not subject to amortization using a reasonable prepayment assumption, the holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate acquired at a premium should recognize a loss if a receivable prepays in full, equal to the difference between the portion of the prepaid principal amount of the receivable that is allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate and the portion of the adjusted basis of the Grantor Trust Certificate that is allocable to the receivable. If a reasonable prepayment assumption is used to amortize the premium, it appears that such a loss would be available, if at all, only if prepayments have occurred at a rate faster than the reasonable assumed prepayment rate. It is not clear whether any other adjustments would be required to reflect differences between an assumed prepayment rate and the actual rate of prepayments.

 

On December 30, 1997 the IRS issued final regulations dealing with amortizable bond premium. These regulations specifically do not apply to prepayable debt instruments subject to Section 1272(a)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code. Absent further guidance from the IRS, the trustee intends to account for amortizable bond premium in the manner described above. It is recommended that prospective purchasers of the certificates consult their tax advisors regarding the possible application of these amortizable bond premium regulations.

 

Election to Treat All Interest as Original Issue Discount. The original issue discount regulations permit a Grantor Trust Certificateholder to elect to accrue all interest, discount, including de minimis market or original issue discount, and premium in income as interest, based on a constant yield method. If such an election were to be made with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate with market discount, the Grantor Trust Certificateholder would be deemed to have made an election to include in income currently market discount with respect to all other debt instruments having market discount that the Grantor Trust Certificateholder acquires during the year of the election or thereafter. Similarly, a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a Grantor Trust Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to have made an election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having amortizable bond premium that the Grantor Trust Certificateholder owns or acquires. See “Premium”. The election to accrue interest, discount and premium on a constant yield method with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate is irrevocable.

Sale or Exchange of a Grantor Trust Certificate. Sale or exchange of a Grantor Trust Certificate prior to its maturity will result in gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the amount received and the owner’s adjusted basis in the Grantor Trust Certificate. The adjusted basis generally will equal the seller’s purchase price for the Grantor Trust Certificate, increased by the original issue discount included in the seller’s gross income with respect to the Grantor Trust Certificate, and reduced by principal payments on the Grantor Trust Certificate previously received by the seller. The gain or loss will be capital gain or loss to an owner for which a Grantor Trust Certificate is a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221, and will be long-term or short-term depending on whether the Grantor Trust Certificate has been owned for the long-term capital gain holding period, currently more than 12 months.

 

Grantor Trust Certificates will be “evidences of indebtedness” within the meaning of Section 582(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, so that gain or loss recognized from the sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate by a bank or a thrift institution to which the section applies will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

 

Foreign Persons. Generally, to the extent that a Grantor Trust Certificate evidences ownership in underlying receivables that were issued on or before July 18, 1984, interest or original issue discount paid by the person required to withhold tax under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Internal Revenue Code to an owner that is not a United States Person or a Grantor Trust Certificateholder holding on behalf of an owner that is not a United States Person will be subject to federal income tax, collected by withholding, at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be provided for interest by an applicable tax treaty. Accrued original issue discount recognized by the owner on the sale or exchange of a Grantor Trust Certificate also will be subject to federal income tax at the same rate. Generally, these payments would not be subject to withholding to the extent that a Grantor Trust Certificate evidences ownership in receivables issued after July 18, 1984, by natural persons if the Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies with certain identification requirements, including delivery of a statement, signed by the Grantor Trust Certificateholder under penalty of perjury, certifying that the Grantor Trust Certificateholder is not a United States Person and providing the name and address of the Grantor Trust Certificateholder. In the case of a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that is not an individual or corporation (or an entity treated as such for federal income tax purposes), more complex rules may apply. In particular, in the case of certificates held by a foreign partnership or foreign trust, the partners or beneficiaries, as the case may be, may be required to provide certain additional information. Additional restrictions apply to receivables of where the obligor is not a natural person in order to qualify for the Exemption from withholding.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. The Servicer will furnish or make available, within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar year, to each person who was a Grantor Trust Certificateholder at any time during the year, the information as may be deemed necessary or desirable to assist Grantor Trust Certificateholders in preparing their federal income tax returns, or to enable holders to make the information available to beneficial owners or financial intermediaries that hold Grantor Trust Certificates as nominees on behalf of beneficial owners. If a holder, beneficial owner, financial intermediary or other recipient of a payment on behalf of a beneficial owner fails to supply a certified taxpayer identification number or if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that the person has not reported all interest and dividend income required to be shown on its federal income tax return, backup withholding may be required with respect to any payments. Any amounts deducted and withheld from a distribution to a recipient would be allowed as a credit against the recipient’s federal income tax liability.

 

Certain State Tax Consequences

 

The activities of servicing and collecting the receivables will be undertaken by the Servicer. Because of the variation in each state’s tax laws based in whole or in part upon income, it is impossible to predict tax consequences to holders of securities in all of the state taxing jurisdictions in which they are

already subject to tax. We suggest that securityholders consult their own tax advisors with respect to state tax consequences arising out of the purchase, ownership and disposition of notes and certificates, if any.

 

The federal and state tax discussions set forth above are included for information only and may not be applicable depending upon a securityholder’s particular tax situation. We suggest that prospective purchasers consult their tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of securities, including the tax consequences under state, local, foreign and other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.

 

ERISA Considerations

 

Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code prohibit a pension, profit sharing or other employee benefit or other plan (such as an individual retirement account and certain types of Keogh plans) that is subject to Title I of ERISA or to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code from engaging in certain transactions involving plan assets with persons that are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified person” under the Internal Revenue Code with respect to the Plan. Certain governmental plans, although not subject to ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, are subject to Similar Law that imposes similar requirements. A violation of these “prohibited transaction” rules may generate excise tax and other liabilities under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code or under Similar Law for these persons.

 

Depending on the relevant facts and circumstances, certain prohibited transaction exemptions may apply to the purchase or holding of the securities—for example:

 

    Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 96-23, which exempts certain transactions effected by an “in-house asset manager”;

 

    Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60, which exempts certain transactions between insurance company general accounts and parties in interest;

 

    Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 91-38, which exempts certain transactions between bank collective investment funds and parties in interest;

 

    Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 90-1, which exempts certain transactions between insurance company pooled separate accounts and parties in interest; or

 

    Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 84-14, which exempts certain transactions effected by a “qualified professional asset manager”.

 

There can be no assurance that any of these exemptions will apply with respect to any Plan’s investment in the securities, or that an exemption, if it did apply, would apply to all prohibited transactions that may occur in connection with the investment. Furthermore, these exemptions may not apply to transactions involved in the operation of a trust if, as described below, the assets of the trust are considered to include plan assets.

 

ERISA also imposes certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of Plans subject to ERISA, including the requirements of investment prudence and diversification, and the requirement that a Plan’s investments be made in accordance with the documents governing the Plan. Under ERISA, any person who exercises any authority or control respecting the management or disposition of the assets of a Plan is considered to be a fiduciary of the Plan. Plan fiduciaries must determine whether the acquisition and holding of securities and the operations of the trust would result in prohibited transactions if Plans that

 

79


Table of Contents

purchase the securities were deemed to own an interest in the underlying assets of the trust under the rules discussed below. There may also be an improper delegation of the responsibility to manage plan assets if Plans that purchase the securities are deemed to own an interest in the underlying assets of the trust.

 

Pursuant to the Plan Assets Regulation, in general when a Plan acquires an equity interest in an entity such as the trust and the interest does not represent a “publicly offered security” or a security issued by an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Plan’s assets include both the equity interest and an undivided interest in each of the underlying assets of the entity, unless it is established either that the entity is an “operating company” or that equity participation in the entity by Benefit Plan Investors is not “significant”. In general, an “equity interest” is defined under the Plan Assets Regulation as any interest in an entity other than an instrument which is treated as indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity features. A “publicly-offered security” is a security that is:

 

    freely transferable;

 

    part of a class of securities that is owned at the close of the initial offering by 100 or more investors independent of the issuer and of each other; and

 

    either part of a class of securities registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act or sold to the Plan as part of an offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and the class of securities is registered under the Exchange Act within 120 days after the end of the issuer’s fiscal year in which the offering occurred.

 

Equity participation by Benefit Plan Investors in an entity is significant if immediately after the most recent acquisition of an equity interest in the entity, 25% or more of the value of any class of equity interest in the entity is held by Benefit Plan Investors. In calculating this percentage, the value of any equity interest held by a person, other than a Benefit Plan Investor, who has discretionary authority or provides investment advice for a fee with respect to the assets of the entity, or by an affiliate of any such person, is disregarded. The likely treatment in this context of notes and certificates, if any, of a trust will be discussed in the related prospectus supplement. However, it is anticipated that the certificates, if any, will be considered equity interests in the trust for purposes of the Plan Assets Regulation, and that the assets of the trust may therefore constitute plan assets if certificates, if any, are acquired by Plans. In that event, the fiduciary and prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code would apply to transactions involving the assets of the trust.

 

As a result, except in the case of certificates, if any, with respect to which the Exemption is available (as described below) and certificates, if any, which are “publicly-offered securities” or in which there will be no significant investment by Benefit Plan Investors, certificates, if any, generally shall not be transferred and the trustee shall not register any proposed transfer of certificates unless it receives:

 

    a representation substantially to the effect that the proposed transferee is not a Plan and is not acquiring the certificates on behalf of or with the assets of a Plan, including assets that may be held in an insurance company’s separate or general accounts where assets in the accounts may be deemed “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA; or

 

    an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the trustee and the Seller that the purchase or holding of the certificates by or on behalf of a Plan will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code or any similar federal, state or local law and will not subject any trustee or the Seller to

 

80


Table of Contents
 

any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the trust agreement or the pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable.

 

Transfer of certificates, if any, which would be eligible for coverage under the Exemption if they met the rating requirements of the Exemption may also be registered if the transferee is an “insurance company general account” that is investing assets of a Plan and that represents that its acquisition and holding of the certificates satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under Parts I and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60.

 

Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, the notes may be purchased by or with assets of a Plan. A fiduciary of a Plan must determine that the purchase of a note is consistent with its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. Moreover, any person considering an investment in the notes on behalf of or with assets of a Plan should consult with counsel if the Seller, an underwriter, the indenture trustee, the trustee or any of their affiliates:

 

    has investment or administrative discretion with respect to the Plan’s assets;

 

    has authority or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment advice with respect to the Plan’s assets for a fee and pursuant to an agreement or understanding that the advice:

 

    will serve as a primary basis for investment decisions with respect to the Plan’s assets; and

 

    will be based on the particular investment needs for the Plan; or

 

    is an employer maintaining or contributing to the Plan.

 

Employee benefit plans that are governmental plans, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, and certain church plans, as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA, are not subject to ERISA requirements but may be subject to a Similar Law. A governmental or church plan which is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code is subject to the prohibited transaction rules in Section 503 of the Internal Revenue Code. A fiduciary of a governmental or church plan considering a purchase of securities should consult its legal advisors to confirm that the acquisition and holding of the security will not result in a non-exempt violation of any applicable Similar Law.

 

A fiduciary of a Plan considering the purchase of securities of a given series should consult its tax and/or legal advisors regarding whether the assets of the related trust would be considered plan assets, the possibility of exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules and other issues and their potential consequences.

 

Certificates

 

Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, the following discussion applies only to securities that are rated BBB- (or its equivalent) or better.

 

The United States Department of Labor has granted to the lead underwriter named in the prospectus supplement the Exemption, which grants exemptive relief from certain of the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA with respect to the initial purchase, the holding and the subsequent resale by Plans of securities, including certificates, representing interests in asset-backed pass-through issuers,

 

81


Table of Contents

including trusts, that consist of certain receivables, loans and other obligations that meet the conditions and requirements of the Exemption. The receivables covered by the Exemption include fully-secured motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and installment loans such as the receivables. The Exemption will apply to the acquisition, holding and resale of the certificates by a Plan, or by a person investing assets of a Plan, provided that the conditions, highlighted below, are met.

 

Among the conditions which must be satisfied for the Exemption to apply to the certificates are the following:

 

(1) the acquisition of the certificates by a Plan is on terms, including the price for the certificates, that are at least as favorable to the Plan as they would be in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated party;

 

(2) the rights and interests evidenced by the certificates acquired by the Plan are not subordinated to the rights and interests evidenced by other certificates of the issuer unless the issuer holds only certain types of assets, such as fully-secured motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts or installment loans;

 

(3) the certificates acquired by the Plan have received a rating at the time of acquisition that is in one of the three highest generic rating categories (four, in a transaction of the type described in clause (2) above) of an Exemption Rating Agency;

 

(4) the trustee is not an affiliate of any other member of the Restricted Group, other than an underwriter;

 

(5) the sum of all payments made to and retained by the underwriters in connection with the distribution of the certificates represents not more than reasonable compensation for underwriting the certificates; the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Seller pursuant to the sale of the receivables to the issuer represents not more than the fair market value of the receivables; and the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Servicer represents not more than reasonable compensation for the Servicer’s services under the applicable agreement and reimbursement of the Servicer’s reasonable expenses in connection therewith;

 

(6) the Plan investing in the certificates is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D of the SEC under the Securities Act; and

 

(7) for certain types of issuers, the documents establishing the issuer and governing the transaction include certain provisions intended to protect the assets of the issuer from creditors of the seller.

 

The Exemption, as amended, provides exemptive relief to certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities transactions that use pre-funding accounts and that otherwise meet the requirements of the Exemption. Loans or other secured receivables supporting payments to securityholders, and having a value equal to no more than 25% of the total principal amount of the securities being offered by the issuer, may be transferred to the issuer during the Pre-Funding Period, instead of being required to be either identified or transferred on or before the Closing Date. The relief is available when the pre-funding arrangements satisfy certain conditions.

 

The Exemption would also provide relief from certain self-dealing/conflict of interest prohibited transactions that may occur when the Plan fiduciary causes a Plan to acquire securities in an entity

 

82


Table of Contents

containing receivables on which the fiduciary (or its affiliate) is an obligor only if, among other requirements:

 

(1) in the case of the acquisition of securities in connection with the initial issuance, at least 50% of each class of securities in which Plans invest and at least 50% of the issuer’s securities in the aggregate are acquired by persons independent of the Restricted Group;

 

(2) the fiduciary (or its affiliate) is an obligor with respect to no more than 5% of the fair market value of the obligations contained in the trust;

 

(3) the Plan’s investment in securities does not exceed 25% of all of the securities outstanding at the time of the acquisition; and

 

(4) immediately after the acquisition, no more than 25% of the assets of any Plan with respect to which the fiduciary has discretionary authority or renders investment advice are invested in securities representing an interest in one or more issuers containing assets sold or serviced by the same entity.

 

This exemptive relief does not apply to Plans sponsored by a member of the Restricted Group.

 

The rating of a security may change. If a class of securities no longer has a rating from at least one Exemption Rating Agency that satisfies the requirements of the Exemption (generally BBB- or Baa3 or better), securities of that class will no longer be eligible for relief under the Exemption, and consequently may not be purchased by or sold to a Plan (although a Plan that had purchased the security when it had a permitted rating would not be required by the Exemption to dispose of it). Securities of a class that cease to satisfy the ratings requirements of the Exemption may be purchased by an insurance company general account investing plan assets if the purchase and holding satisfy the requirements of Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60.

 

The prospectus supplement for each series of securities will indicate the classes of securities, if any, offered thereby to which it is expected that the Exemption will apply. It is not clear that the Exemption will apply to securities issued by an issuer that has a revolving period. If the issuer intends for the Exemption to apply to its sales of securities to Plans, it may prohibit sales until the expiration of the revolving period.

 

Any Plan fiduciary that proposes to cause a Plan to purchase securities should consult with counsel concerning the impact of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code, the applicability of the Exemption, as amended, and the potential consequences in their specific circumstances, prior to making the investment. Moreover, each Plan fiduciary should determine whether, under the general fiduciary standards of investment prudence and diversification, an investment in the securities is appropriate for the Plan, taking into account the overall investment policy of the Plan and the composition of the Plan’s investment portfolio.

 

Special Considerations Applicable to Insurance Company General Accounts

 

The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 added Section 401(c) of ERISA relating to the status of the assets of insurance company general accounts under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under Section 401(c), the Department of Labor published general account regulations providing guidance on which assets held by the insurer constitute “plan assets” for purposes of the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. The general account regulations do not exempt from treatment as “plan assets” assets in an insurance

 

83


Table of Contents

company’s general account that support insurance policies issued to Plans after December 31, 1998. The plan asset status of insurance company separate accounts is unaffected by Section 401(c) of ERISA, and separate account assets continue to be treated as the plan assets of any Plan invested in a separate account. Plan investors considering the purchase of securities on behalf of an insurance company general account should consult their legal advisors regarding the effect of the general account regulations on the purchase. The general account regulations should not, however, adversely affect the applicability of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60.

 

Plan of Distribution

 

The securities of each series that are offered by this prospectus and the related prospectus supplement will be offered through one or more of the following methods. The related prospectus supplement will provide specified details as to the method of distribution for the offering.

 

Sales Through Underwriters

 

If specified in the related prospectus supplement, on the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement with respect to the securities of a given series, the Seller will agree to sell, or cause the related trust to sell, to the underwriters named in the related prospectus supplement the notes and certificates of the trust specified in the underwriting agreement. Each of the underwriters will severally agree to purchase the principal amount of each class of notes and certificates of the related trust set forth in the related prospectus supplement and the underwriting agreement.

 

Each prospectus supplement will either:

 

    set forth the price at which each class of notes and certificates, as the case may be, being offered thereby will be offered to the public and any concessions that may be offered to certain dealers participating in the offering of the notes and certificates; or

 

    specify that the related notes and certificates, as the case may be, are to be resold by the underwriters in negotiated transactions at varying prices to be determined at the time of the sale.

 

After the initial public offering of the notes and certificates, the public offering prices and the concessions may be changed.

 

Each underwriting agreement will provide that each of CarMax Auto and the Seller will jointly and severally indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the several underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

Each trust may, from time to time, invest the funds in its trust accounts in investments acquired from such underwriters or from the Seller.

 

Under each underwriting agreement with respect to a given trust, the closing of the sale of any class of securities subject to the underwriting agreement will be conditioned on the closing of the sale of all other classes of securities of that trust, some of which may not be registered or may not be publicly offered.

 

The place and time of delivery for the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be set forth in the related prospectus supplement.

 

84


Table of Contents

The underwriters may make a market in the securities, but they are not obligated to do so. In addition, any market-making may be discontinued at any time at their sole discretion.

 

Other Placements of Securities

 

To the extent set forth in the related prospectus supplement, securities of a given series may be offered by placements with institutional investors through dealers or by direct placements with institutional investors.

 

The prospectus supplement with respect to any securities offered by placements through dealers will contain information regarding the nature of the offering and any agreements to be entered into between the Seller and purchasers of securities.

 

Purchasers of securities, including dealers, may, depending upon the facts and circumstances of the purchases, be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with reoffers and sales by them of securities. Securityholders should consult with their legal advisors in this regard prior to any reoffer or sale.

 

Underwriting

 

Until the distribution of the securities is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the related underwriters and certain selling group members to bid for and purchase the securities. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the prices of the securities. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the prices of the securities.

 

The underwriters may make short sales in the securities in connection with this offering (i.e., they sell more notes or certificates than they are required to purchase in the offering). This type of short sale is commonly referred to as a “naked” short sale because the related underwriters do not have an option to purchase these additional securities in the offering. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing notes or certificates, as the case may be, in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the related underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes or the certificates in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the notes or the certificates, as the case may be, or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes or the certificates.

 

The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on certain underwriters and selling group members. This means that if the underwriters purchase securities in the open market to reduce the underwriters’ short position or to stabilize the price of such securities, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from any underwriter or selling group member who sold those securities as part of the offering.

 

In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the security.

 

Neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the

 

85


Table of Contents

securities. In addition, neither the Seller nor any of the underwriters makes any representation that the underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

(a) As to Rule 415:

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);

 

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

 

II-2


Table of Contents

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(b) As to documents subsequently filed that are incorporated by reference:

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) As to indemnification:

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(d) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(e) As to qualification of trust indentures:

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Securities Act.

Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Notes as contemplated herein, the Trust will issue CarMax Auto Owner Trust 20[__]-[__] Certificates (the "Certificates" and, together with the Notes, the "Securities"). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of [____________], 2003 (the "Indenture"), between the Trust and [_______________], as trustee (the "Indenture Trustee"). The Trust will be created and the Certificates will be issued pursuant to an amended and restated trust agreement, dated as of [____________], 2003 (the "Trust Agreement"), between the Depositor and [_______________], as trustee (the "Owner Trustee"). Each Note will represent an obligation of the Trust, each Certificate will represent an undivided beneficial interest in the Trust and the Certificates will be subordinated to the Notes to the extent described in the Indenture and the Trust Agreement. The assets of the Trust will include, among other things, (i) a pool of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts (the "Receivables") secured by the new and used motor vehicles financed thereby (the "Financed Vehicles"), (ii) certain monies payable under the Receivables after [____________], (iii) security interests in the Financed Vehicles, (iv) amounts on deposit in certain accounts, (v) certain rights under a receivables purchase agreement, dated as of [____________], 2003 (the "Receivables Purchase Agreement"), between CarMax Auto Superstores, Inc.

Pursuant to the Indenture, the Trust property will be held by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the holders of the Notes. Pursuant to an administration agreement, dated as of [____________], 2003 (the "Administration Agreement"), among CarMax, as administrator (the "Administrator"), the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, the Administrator will perform certain administrative obligations of the Trust under the Indenture. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be. The Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the Administration Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Receivables Purchase Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the "Basic Documents". The Depositor has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-107925), including a preliminary base prospectus and a form of preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the offering of asset backed notes and asset backed certificates, issued in series from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission. If any post-effective amendment has been filed with respect thereto, prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the most recent such amendment has been declared effective by the Commission. The Depositor will file a final base prospectus and a final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with Rules 415 and 424(b)(2) or (5) under the Securities Act. The Depositor has included in such registration statement, as amended at the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), all information required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act (the "Securities Act Regulations") to be included in 2 the prospectus with respect to the offering of the Notes. As filed, the final prospectus and the final prospectus supplement shall include all required information with respect to the offering of the Notes and shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to the Representative prior to the Execution Time (as hereinafter defined) or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond those contained in the latest preliminary base prospectus and preliminary prospectus supplement, if any, that have been previously been furnished to the Representative) as the Depositor has advised the Representative, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein. As used herein, "Execution Time" means the date and time this Agreement is executed and delivered to the parties hereto and "Effective Date" means the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, was declared effective by the Commission. Such registration statement, as amended as of the Effective Date, including the exhibits thereto and any material incorporated by reference therein pursuant to the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is referred to as the "Registration Statement". "Base Prospectus" means the base prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as amended at the time of the filing of the Prospectus. "Preliminary Prospectus" means any preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus and the Base Prospectus which describes the offering of the Notes and is used prior to the filing of the Prospectus. "Prospectus" means the supplement to the Base Prospectus that is first filed after the Execution Time pursuant to Rule 424(b), together with the Base Prospectus, as amended at the time of such filing; provided, however, that a supplement to the Base Prospectus shall be deemed to have supplemented the Base Prospectus only with respect to the offering of the series of securities to which it relates. "Prospectus Supplement" means the supplement to the Base Prospectus included in the Prospectus. To the extent that the Depositor has prepared (i) Collateral Term Sheets (as defined in Section 6) that the Underwriters, the Depositor or CarMax have provided to a prospective investor, the Depositor shall file with the Commission such Collateral Term Sheets as an exhibit to a report on Form 8-K within two business days of its receipt thereof or (ii) Structural Term Sheets or Computational Materials (each as defined in Section 6), the Depositor shall file with the Commission a report on Form 8-K containing such Structural Term Sheet and Computational Materials, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event, not later than the date on which the Prospectus is made available to the Representative in final form. All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is "contained", "included" or "stated" in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be. All references in this Agreement to the terms "amend", "amendments" or "supplements" with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any documents under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any 3 Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, which are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system ("EDGAR"). Section 1. Representations and Warranties. (a) Representations and Warranties by the Depositor. The Depositor represents and warrants to the Underwriters as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Time referred to in Section 2(b) and agrees with the Underwriters as follows: (i) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Depositor meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. If the Registration Statement contains the undertaking specified by Regulation S-K Item 512(a), the Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"). At the respective times that the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto became effective and at Closing Time, the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities Act Regulations, the Trust Indenture Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Trust Indenture Act (the "Trust Indenture Act Regulations") and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto, at the time the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement was issued and at the Closing Time, included or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Depositor in writing by any Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. Any Preliminary Prospectus and the prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment thereto, or filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act Regulations, complied when so filed in all material respects with the Securities Act Regulations and any Preliminary Prospectus and the 4 Prospectus delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Notes will, at the time of such delivery, be identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T. (ii) Incorporated Documents. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "Exchange Act Regulations") and, when read together with the other information in the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective, at the date of the Prospectus and at the Closing Time, did not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (iii) No Material Adverse Change. Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as otherwise set forth therein, (A) there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Depositor, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or in the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Basic Document to which it is a party (a "Material Adverse Effect") and (B) there have been no transactions entered into by the Depositor, other than those in the ordinary course of business, which are material with respect to it. (iv) Due Organization of the Depositor. The Depositor has been duly formed and is validly existing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware, and all filings required at the date hereof under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (6 Del. C. (S)18-101, et seq.) (the "LLC Act") with respect to the due formation and valid existence of the Depositor as a limited liability company have been made; the Depositor has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Basic Document to which it is a party (collectively, the "Depositor Agreements") and the Securities; and the Depositor is duly qualified or registered as a foreign limited liability company to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification or registration is required, whether by reason of the ownership of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to so qualify or register or to be in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. (v) Authorization of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor. (vi) Authorization of Basic Documents. As of the Closing Time, each of the Basic Documents to which the Depositor is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and 5 delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Depositor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) Issuance of the Notes. The Notes have been duly authorized and, at the Closing Time, will have been duly executed and, when authenticated, issued and delivered in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor as provided in this Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and will be in the form contemplated by, and entitled to the benefits of, the Indenture. (viii) Issuance of the Certificates. The Certificates have been duly authorized and, at the Closing Time, will have been duly executed and, when authenticated, issued and delivered in the manner provided for in the Trust Agreement, will be validly issued and outstanding and will be in the form contemplated by, and entitled to the benefits of, the Trust Agreement. (ix) Description of the Securities and Basic Documents. The Securities and the Basic Documents conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof and the statements relating thereto contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

(ix) Assuming that the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee, authenticated by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and delivered against payment of the consideration specified in this Agreement, the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including concepts of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief. (x) Such counsel is familiar with the standard operating procedures of CarMax relating to the acquisition by CarMax of a first priority perfected security interest in the financed vehicles financed by installment sale contracts originated by CarMax in the ordinary course of its business and relating to the sale of such contracts and such security interests in the financed vehicles in the ordinary course of its business. Assuming that such standard procedures have been and are followed with respect to the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles (and such counsel has no reason to believe that CarMax has not or will not continue to follow its standard procedures in connection with the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles), CarMax has acquired a first priority perfected security interest in the Financed Vehicles. As to each security interest in a Financed Vehicle created by a Receivable, no filing or other action is necessary to perfect or continue the perfected status of such security interest as against creditors of or transferees from the obligor under such Receivable; provided that (A) no opinion is rendered as to a security interest in a Financed Vehicle as to which neither a properly endorsed certificate of title naming 18 CarMax or an Affiliate or predecessor of CarMax as legal owner nor an application for an original registration together with an application for registration of CarMax or an Affiliate or predecessor of CarMax as legal owner, has been deposited with the appropriate department of motor vehicles and (B) no opinion is given as to the enforceability of the security interest in a Financed Vehicle as against a subsequent owner of a Financed Vehicle or a holder or assignee of a certificate of title relating to such Financed Vehicle through fraudulent or negligent transfer of such certificate title. (xi) The Securities and the Basic Documents conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof and the statements relating thereto contained in the Prospectus. (xii) The execution, delivery and performance by CarMax of the CarMax Agreements and the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein and compliance with its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or Repayment Event under or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of CarMax or the Depositor pursuant to any Agreement or Instrument to which CarMax or the Depositor is a party or by which either may be bound (except for Liens permitted by the Basic Documents), or to which any of the property or assets of CarMax or the Depositor is subject (except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults or liens, charges or encumbrances that would not have a Material Adverse Effect), nor will such action result in any violation of any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree known to such counsel, of any government, government instrumentality or court having jurisdiction over CarMax or the Depositor or any of their respective properties, assets or operations. (xiii) The information set forth in any Computational Materials, any Structural Term Sheet or any Collateral Term Sheet and the Prospectus Supplement under the headings "Summary - Servicer", "Summary - Seller", "Risk Factors - Geographic Concentration May Result in More Risk to You", "The Receivables" and "CarMax" and the information set forth in the Base Prospectus under the headings "Summary - Servicer", "Summary - Seller", "The Receivables", "The Seller", "CarMax", "Certain Information Regarding the Securities" and "Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables", to the extent that they constitute matters of law or legal conclusions with respect thereto, have been prepared or reviewed by such counsel and provide a fair and accurate summary in all material respects. (xiv) Neither the Trust nor the Depositor is required to register as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act. (xv) The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. 19 (xvi) The Indenture creates a valid security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee in the Collateral, the security interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables and the proceeds of each of the foregoing. (xvii) The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act; to the best of such counsel's knowledge and information, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or threatened by the Commission. (xviii) The Registration Statement and the Prospectus (in each case other than the financial statements and supporting schedules included therein or omitted therefrom and the Trustee's Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion), as of their respective effective or issue dates, as the case may be, complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations. Such counsel shall also state that such counsel has examined the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and nothing has come to such counsel's attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the Registration Statement (other than the financial statements and schedules and other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information, in each case contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and the Form T-1, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the time the Registration Statement became effective, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and schedules and other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information, in each case contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and the Form T-1, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the date thereof and at the Closing Time, included or includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (h) Opinion of Special Delaware Counsel for the Depositor. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], special Delaware counsel for the Depositor, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Depositor is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Depositor Agreements. (ii) The Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Depositor, dated as of August 6, 2003 (the "LLC Agreement"), by CarMax (the "Member"), as the 20 sole equity member of the Depositor, and the special members named therein, constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Member, and is enforceable against the Member in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (iii) Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the Depositor has all necessary limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under the Depositor Agreements. (iv) Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements, and the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under the Depositor Agreements, have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Depositor. (v) The Depositor Agreements have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Depositor. (vi) The Trust Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) The execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements, and the performance by the Depositor of its obligations thereunder, do not violate (A) any Delaware law, rule or regulation or (B) the LLC Certificate or the LLC Agreement. (viii) No authorization, consent, approval or order of any Delaware court or any Delaware governmental or administrative body is required solely in connection with the execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements or the performance by the Depositor of its obligations thereunder. (ix) The Depositor's assignment and delivery of the Receivables to the Trust and the filing of applicable UCC financing statements with the Delaware Secretary of State will vest in the Trust a first priority perfected security interest therein, subject to no prior Lien. (i) Opinion of Special Delaware Counsel for the Trust. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of 21 [_______________], special Delaware counsel for the Trust, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Trust has been duly formed and is validly existing as a statutory trust pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware, 12 Del. C. (S)(S) 3801, et seq. (the "Statutory Trust Act"), and has the power and authority under the Trust Agreement and the Act to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, to issue the Certificates and the Notes and to grant the Owner Trust Estate to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes. (ii) The Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trust and the Notes have been duly executed by the Trust. (iii) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party by the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and by each other party thereto each such Basic Document constitutes the valid, legal and binding obligation of the Trust enforceable against the Trust in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and except that no opinion need be expressed as to the availability of remedies of specific performance, injunction or other forms of equitable relief, all of which may be subject to certain tests of equity jurisdiction, equitable defenses and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. (iv) The Notes have been duly authorized, executed and issued by the Trust. (v) The Certificates have been duly authorized by the Trust and, when executed by the Trust, authenticated by the Owner Trustee and delivered to the Depositor in accordance with the Trust Agreement, the Certificates will be validly issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Trust Agreement. (vi) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, the Certificates or the Notes, nor the consummation by the Trust of any of the transactions contemplated thereby, requires the consent or approval of, the withholding of objection on the part of, the giving of notice to, the filing, registration or qualification with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority or agency of the State of Delaware, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State. (vii) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, the Certificates or the Notes, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, will conflict with 22 or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the provisions of the Trust Agreement or any law, rule or regulation of the State of Delaware applicable to the Trust or, to our knowledge without independent investigation, any judgment or order of the Sate of Delaware applicable to the Trust or its properties or, to our knowledge without independent investigation, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other agreement or instrument to which the Trust is a party or by which it is bound. (viii) Under Section 3805(b) of the Statutory Trust Act, no creditor of any Certificate Owner shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the Owner Trust Estate except in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. (ix) Under Section 3805(c) of the Statutory Trust Act, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement, a Certificate Owner has no interest in specific Trust property. (x) Under Section 3808(a) and (b) of the Statutory Trust Act, the Trust may not be terminated or revoked by any Certificate Owner, and the dissolution, termination or bankruptcy of any Certificate Owner shall not result in the termination or dissolution of the Trust, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement. (xi) Under the Statutory Trust Act, the Trust is a separate legal entity and, assuming that the Sale and Servicing Agreement conveys good title to the Trust property to the Trust as a true sale and not as a security arrangement, the Trust rather than the Certificate Owners will hold whatever title to the Trust property as may be conveyed to it from time to time pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except to the extent that the Trust has taken action to dispose of or otherwise transfer or encumber any part of the Trust property. (xii) To the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the "UCC") is applicable (without regard to conflicts of laws principles), and assuming that the security interest created by the Indenture in the Collateral has been duly created and has attached, upon the filing of the Financing Statement with the Secretary of State, the Indenture Trustee will have a perfected security interest in the Trust's rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the Financing Statement that constitutes "chattel paper," "general intangibles" or "accounts" (as such terms are defined in the UCC) and the proceeds thereof; and such security interest will be prior to any other security interest granted by the Trust that is perfected solely by the filing of financing statements under the UCC, subject to Section 9-312 of the UCC (with respect to purchase money security interests) and Section 9-306 of the UCC (with respect to temporarily perfected security interests in proceeds). (j) Opinion of Counsel for the Indenture Trustee. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of 23 in-house counsel for the Indenture Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Indenture Trustee has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a [____________] under the laws of [____________]. (ii) The Indenture Trustee, at the time of its execution and delivery of the Indenture, had full power and authority to execute and deliver the Indenture and has full power and authority to perform its obligations thereunder. (iii) The Indenture has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights or by general principles of equity. (iv) To the best of such counsel's knowledge, there are no actions, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against or affecting the Indenture Trustee before or by any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority which, if adversely decided, would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Indenture Trustee to carry out the transactions contemplated in the Indenture. (v) No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body of the United States of America or any state thereof was or is required for the execution, delivery or performance by the Indenture Trustee of the Indenture. (vi) Each of the Basic Documents to which the Indenture Trustee is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its respective terms, except that certain of such obligations may be enforceable solely against the Collateral and except that such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and by general principles of equity, including without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) The Notes have been duly authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. (k) Opinion of Counsel for the Owner Trustee. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of 24 [_______________], counsel for the Owner Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) [_______________] is duly incorporated and validly existing as a [____________] under the laws of [____________] and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Trust Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. (ii) The Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by [_______________] and is the legal, valid and binding agreement of [_______________], enforceable against [_______________] in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (iii) The Owner Trustee has duly executed and delivered each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the authorization contained in the Trust Agreement. (iv) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by [_______________] of the Trust Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor compliance with the terms thereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the charter or bylaws of [_______________] or any law, rule or regulation of [____________] governing the banking or trust powers of [_______________] or, to our knowledge, without independent investigation, any judgment or order of [____________] applicable to [_______________] or its properties or, to our knowledge, without independent investigation, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other agreement or instrument to which [_______________] is a party or by which it is bound. (v) No consent, approval or other authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court or governmental agency or commission of [____________] is required by or with respect to [_______________] for the (A) valid execution, delivery and performance of the Trust Agreement, (B) valid execution and delivery by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, or (C) validity or enforceability the agreements listed in clauses (A) or (B) of this paragraph, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State. (vi) To our knowledge, without independent investigation, there are no pending or threatened actions, suits or proceedings affecting [_______________] before any court or other government authority of [____________] which, if adversely determined, would materially and adversely affect the ability of 25 [_______________] to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Trust Agreement. (l) Opinion of Counsel for the Underwriters. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of Sidley Austin Brown & Wood LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters. In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely, as to all matters governed by the laws of jurisdictions other than the law of the State of New York and the federal law of the United States, upon the opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters. (m) Reliance Letters. At the Closing Time, counsel to CarMax and the Depositor shall provide reliance letters to the Underwriters relating to each legal opinion relating to the transaction contemplated hereby rendered to either Trustee or either Rating Agency. (n) Maintenance of Rating. At the Closing Time, the Class A-1 Notes shall be rated by each Rating Agency in its highest short-term rating category and the Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class A-4 Notes shall be rated in the highest rating category by each Rating Agency, the Class B Notes shall be rated "Aa3" and "A" by Moody's and Standard & Poor's, respectively, and the Class C Notes shall be rated "Baa3" and BBB" by Moody's and Standard & Poor's, respectively, and the Depositor shall have delivered to the Underwriters a letter dated the Closing Time from each Rating Agency, or other evidence satisfactory to the Underwriters, confirming that the Notes have such ratings; and since the date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred a downgrading in the rating assigned to the Notes or any other securities of CarMax or any of its Affiliates by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization", as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act, and no such rating agency shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of the Notes or any other securities of CarMax or any of its Affiliates. (o) Additional Rating Agency Requirements. The Depositor will, to the extent, if any, that the ratings provided with respect to the Notes by either Rating Agency are conditioned upon the furnishing or the taking of any other actions by the Depositor, furnish such documents and take all such other actions. (p) Additional Documents. At the Closing Time, counsel for the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as it may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling it to pass upon the issuance of the Securities and the sale of the Notes as herein contemplated, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties or the fulfillment of any of the conditions herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Depositor in connection with the foregoing shall be satisfactory in form and substance to counsel for the Underwriters. (q) Termination of Agreement. If any condition specified in this Section shall not have been fulfilled when and as required to be fulfilled, this Agreement may be 26 terminated by the Underwriters by notice to the Depositor at any time at or prior to the Closing Time, and such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 and except that Sections 1, 6, 7 and 8 shall survive any such termination and remain in full force and effect. Section 6. Indemnification. (a) Indemnification of Underwriters. CarMax and the Depositor agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows: (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(d)) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Depositor; and (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Underwriters), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under clause (i) or (ii) above; provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Depositor by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it 27 being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the following information under the caption "Underwriting" in each of the Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement, and in the Prospectus Supplement the (i) concession and reallowance figures appearing in the second table and (ii) information regarding discretionary sales contained in the second, third and paragraphs. ------- The terms "Collateral Term Sheet" and "Structural Term Sheet" shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the February 13, 1995 letter of Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton on behalf of the Public Securities Association (which letter, and the Commission's response thereto, were publicly available February 17, 1995). The term "Collateral Term Sheet" as used herein includes any subsequent Collateral Term Sheet that reflects a substantive change in the information presented. The term "Computational Materials" has the meaning assigned to it in the May 17, 1994 letter of Brown & Wood on behalf of Kidder, Peabody & Co., Inc. (which letter, and the Commission's response thereto, were publicly available May 20, 1994). (b) Indemnification of CarMax and the Depositor. The Underwriters agree severally but not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless CarMax and the Depositor and each person, if any, who controls CarMax and the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 6(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, of material facts made in the Prospectus (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to CarMax and the Depositor by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). (c) Actions Against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a), counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Underwriters, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b), counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by CarMax or the Depositor. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental 28 agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section or Section 7 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. (d) Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. Section 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by CarMax and the Depositor and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, bear to the aggregate initial offering prices of the Notes. The relative fault of CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by CarMax and the Depositor or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. CarMax, the Depositor and the Underwriters each agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations 29 referred to above in this Section. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter in respect of the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls CarMax or the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as CarMax and the Depositor. The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section are several in proportion to the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A and not joint. Section 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of CarMax and the Depositor and their Affiliates submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any controlling person, or by or on behalf of CarMax and the Depositor and their Affiliates, and shall survive delivery of the Notes to the Underwriters. Section 9. Termination of Agreement. (a) Termination; General. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Depositor, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of CarMax or the Depositor, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Notes, (iii) if trading in any securities of CarMax, the 30 Depositor or any of their Affiliates has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or if trading generally on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq National Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any other governmental authority, (iv) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearing services in the United States or (v) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either federal, Virginia, or New York authorities. -------- (b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4, and provided further that Sections 1, 6, 7, 8 and 10 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect. Section 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase the Notes which it or they are obligated to purchase (the "Defaulted Notes"), then the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Notes in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representative shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then: (a) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Notes does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations in Schedule A bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or (b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Notes exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter. No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement either the Representative or the Depositor shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. Section 11. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Representative at [____________________], attention of [____________]; notices to CarMax or the Depositor, respectively, shall be directed to it at 4900 Cox Road, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, attention of General Counsel. 31 Section 12. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors and the controlling persons, directors and officers referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors, and the controlling persons, directors and officers referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Notes from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase. Section 13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflicts of law provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law), and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties under this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with such laws. Section 14. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not effect the construction hereof. 32 If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Representative a counterpart hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement among CarMax, the Depositor and the several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.

The Depositor has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-107925), including a preliminary base prospectus and a form of preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the offering of asset backed notes and asset backed certificates, issued in series from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission. If any post-effective amendment has been filed with respect thereto, prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the most recent such amendment has been declared effective by the Commission. The Depositor will file a final base prospectus and a final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with Rules 415 and 424(b)(2) or (5) under the Securities Act. The Depositor has included in such registration statement, as amended at the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), all information required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations 2 of the Commission under the Securities Act (the "Securities Act Regulations") to be included in the prospectus with respect to the offering of the Securities. As filed, the final prospectus and the final prospectus supplement shall include all required information with respect to the offering of the Securities and shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to the Representative prior to the Execution Time (as hereinafter defined) or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond those contained in the latest preliminary base prospectus and preliminary prospectus supplement, if any, that have been previously been furnished to the Representative) as the Depositor has advised the Representative, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein. As used herein, "Execution Time" means the date and time this Agreement is executed and delivered to the parties hereto and "Effective Date" means the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, was declared effective by the Commission. Such registration statement, as amended as of the Effective Date, including the exhibits thereto and any material incorporated by reference therein pursuant to the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is referred to as the "Registration Statement". "Base Prospectus" means the base prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as amended at the time of the filing of the Prospectus. "Preliminary Prospectus" means any preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus and the Base Prospectus which describes the offering of the Securities and is used prior to the filing of the Prospectus. "Prospectus" means the supplement to the Base Prospectus that is first filed after the Execution Time pursuant to Rule 424(b), together with the Base Prospectus, as amended at the time of such filing; provided, however, that a supplement to the Base Prospectus shall be deemed to have supplemented the Base Prospectus only with respect to the offering of the series of securities to which it relates. "Prospectus Supplement" means the supplement to the Base Prospectus included in the Prospectus. To the extent that the Depositor has prepared (i) Collateral Term Sheets (as defined in Section 6) that the Underwriters, the Depositor or CarMax have provided to a prospective investor, the Depositor shall file with the Commission such Collateral Term Sheets as an exhibit to a report on Form 8-K within two business days of its receipt thereof or (ii) Structural Term Sheets or Computational Materials (each as defined in Section 6), the Depositor shall file with the Commission a report on Form 8-K containing such Structural Term Sheet and Computational Materials, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event, not later than the date on which the Prospectus is made available to the Representative in final form. All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is "contained", "included" or "stated" in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be. All references in this Agreement to the terms "amend", "amendments" or "supplements" with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall 3 be deemed to mean and include the filing of any documents under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, which are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system ("EDGAR"). Section 1. Representations and Warranties. (a) Representations and Warranties by the Depositor. The Depositor represents and warrants to the Underwriters as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Time referred to in Section 2(b) and agrees with the Underwriters as follows: (i) Compliance with Registration Requirements. The Depositor meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. If the Registration Statement contains the undertaking specified by Regulation S-K Item 512(a), the Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"). At the respective times that the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto became effective and at Closing Time, the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities Act Regulations, the Trust Indenture Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Trust Indenture Act (the "Trust Indenture Act Regulations") and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto, at the time the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement was issued and at the Closing Time, included or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Depositor in writing by any Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. Any Preliminary Prospectus and the prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment thereto, or filed pursuant to 4 Rule 424 of the Securities Act Regulations, complied when so filed in all material respects with the Securities Act Regulations and any Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Securities will, at the time of such delivery, be identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T. (ii) Incorporated Documents. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "Exchange Act Regulations") and, when read together with the other information in the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective, at the date of the Prospectus and at the Closing Time, did not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (iii) No Material Adverse Change. Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as otherwise set forth therein, (A) there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Depositor, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or in the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Basic Document to which it is a party (a "Material Adverse Effect") and (B) there have been no transactions entered into by the Depositor, other than those in the ordinary course of business, which are material with respect to it.

The Depositor has been duly formed and is validly existing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware, and all filings required at the date hereof under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (6 Del.

(the "LLC Act") with respect to the due formation and valid existence of the Depositor as a limited liability company have been made; the Depositor has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Basic Document to which it is a party (collectively, the "Depositor Agreements") and the Securities; and the Depositor is duly qualified or registered as a foreign limited liability company to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification or registration is required, whether by reason of the ownership of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to so qualify or register or to be in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. (v) Authorization of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor. 5 (vi) Authorization of Basic Documents. As of the Closing Time, each of the Basic Documents to which the Depositor is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Depositor, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, will constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Depositor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) Issuance of the Notes. The Notes have been duly authorized and, at the Closing Time, will have been duly executed and, when authenticated, issued and delivered in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor as provided in this Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and will be in the form contemplated by, and entitled to the benefits of, the Indenture.

The Securities, the Policy and the Basic Documents conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof and the statements relating thereto contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. (x) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. The Depositor is not in violation of its limited liability company agreement or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it may be bound, or to which any of its properties or assets is subject (collectively, "Agreements and Instruments"), except for defaults that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect; and the execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements and the Securities, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus and compliance by it with its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action and do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, a default or Repayment Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, mortgage, pledge, charge, encumbrance, adverse claim or other security interest (collectively, "Liens") upon any of its property or 6 assets pursuant to the Agreements and Instruments except for Liens permitted by the Basic Documents and conflicts, breaches or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, will not result in a Material Adverse Effect, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of its limited liability company agreement or any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Depositor or any of its assets, properties or operations. As used herein, a "Repayment Event" means any event or condition which gives the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder's behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by the Depositor. (xi) Absence of Proceedings. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor, threatened, against or affecting the Depositor which is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (other than as stated therein or stated in a document incorporated by reference therein), or which might reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or which might reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect its properties or assets; the aggregate of all pending legal or governmental proceedings to which the Depositor is a party or of which any of its properties or assets is the subject which are not described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, including ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(xiii) Absence of Further Requirements.

The Depositor possesses or, as of the Closing Time, has applied, for such permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations (collectively, "Governmental Licenses") issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by it; the Depositor is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; except for Governmental Licenses that have been applied for as of the Closing Time, all of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except when the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or 7 the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect or would render a material portion of the Receivables unenforceable; and the Depositor has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would result in a Material Adverse Effect or would render a material portion of the Receivables unenforceable. (xv) Title to Receivables; Payment of Fees. As of the Closing Time, the Depositor will have good and marketable title to the Receivables listed in Schedule 1 to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, free and clear of any Lien; and the Depositor's assignment and delivery of the Receivables to the Trust will vest in the Trust the good and marketable title purported to be conveyed thereby, and the Trust will be the sole owner of each Receivable free and clear of Liens other than the Lien in favor of the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture and the security interest afforded to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement; all taxes, fees and other governmental charges arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Basic Documents and with the execution and delivery of the Receivables, including any amendments thereto and assignments and/or endorsements thereof, have been paid by the Depositor. (xvi) Investment Company Act. Neither the Trust nor the Depositor is now or, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, will be, an "investment company", as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). (xvii) Incorporation of Representations and Warranties.

CarMax has been duly incorporated and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Virginia and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where the character of its properties or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary, except such jurisdictions, if any, in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect on either the business or properties of CarMax; CarMax has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each of the Basic Documents to which it is a party (collectively, the "CarMax Agreements"); CarMax holds all material licenses, certificates and permits from all governmental authorities necessary for the conduct of its business as described in the Prospectus. 8 (ii) Authorization of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by CarMax. (iii) Authorization of Basic Documents. As of the Closing Time, each of the Basic Documents to which CarMax is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by CarMax, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, will constitute a valid and binding agreement of CarMax, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and except as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (iv) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. CarMax is not in violation of its articles of incorporation or bylaws or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any Agreements and Instruments, except for defaults that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect; and the execution, delivery and performance by CarMax of the CarMax Agreements, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus and compliance by it with its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action and do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, a default or Repayment Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its property or assets pursuant to the Agreements and Instruments except for Liens permitted by the Basic Documents and conflicts, breaches or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, will not result in a Material Adverse Effect, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of its articles of incorporation or bylaws or any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over CarMax or any of its assets, properties or operations. As used herein, a "Repayment Event" means any event or condition which gives the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder's behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by CarMax. (v) Absence of Proceedings.

At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of McGuireWoods LLP, counsel for CarMax and the Depositor, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that: (i) CarMax is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the CarMax Agreements. (ii) The execution, delivery and performance by CarMax of the CarMax Agreements have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of CarMax. (iii) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each of CarMax and the Depositor. (iv) The Basic Documents to which CarMax is a party have been duly and validly executed and delivered by CarMax and constitute legal, valid and 16 binding agreements of CarMax, enforceable against CarMax in accordance with their respective terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (v) Each of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vi) The authorization, execution, delivery and performance by CarMax of the CarMax Agreements and the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements, as applicable, and the issuance, offering, sale or delivery of the Securities do not require the authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification, decree or approval of, or any filing with, any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over CarMax or the Depositor, respectively (except such consents, authorizations, approvals or filings as have been obtained or made and as are in full force and effect or those that may be required under the state securities or blue sky laws of the various States, and except for the filing of UCC-3 partial release statements relating to the release of the existing liens on the Receivables and the other property of the Trust of CarMax's secured lenders and the filing of UCC-1 financing statements relating to the conveyance of the Receivables and other property of the Trust by the Depositor to the Trust and by the Trust to the Indenture Trustee, which UCC statement filings are in the process of being made) and do not conflict with, violate, result in a breach of or constitute a default under (A) any term or provision of the amended and restated articles of incorporation or bylaws of CarMax or any term or provision of the limited liability company agreement of the Depositor, as applicable, (B) in any material respect, any statute, order known to such counsel, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over CarMax or the Depositor or (C) in any material respect, any indenture or other agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which CarMax or the Depositor is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound. (vii) To the best knowledge of such counsel, there is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (A) asserting the invalidity of any CarMax Agreement, any Depositor Agreement or the Securities, (B) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Securities or the consummation by CarMax or the Depositor of the transactions 17 contemplated by the CarMax Agreements or the Depositor Agreements, respectively, or (C) which, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the performance by either CarMax or the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, any CarMax Agreement or any Depositor Agreement, as applicable. (viii) Each of CarMax and the Depositor possesses such permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations (collectively, "Governmental Licenses") issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by them; each of CarMax and the Depositor is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; all of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except when the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect or would render a material portion of the Receivables unenforceable; and neither CarMax nor the Depositor has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would result in a Material Adverse Effect or would render a material portion of the Receivables unenforceable. (ix) Assuming that the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee, authenticated by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and delivered against payment of the consideration specified in this Agreement, the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including concepts of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief. (x) Such counsel is familiar with the standard operating procedures of CarMax relating to the acquisition by CarMax of a first priority perfected security interest in the financed vehicles financed by installment sale contracts originated by CarMax in the ordinary course of its business and relating to the sale of such contracts and such security interests in the financed vehicles in the ordinary course of its business. Assuming that such standard procedures have been and are followed with respect to the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles (and such counsel has no reason to believe that CarMax has not or will not continue to follow its standard procedures in connection with the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles), CarMax has acquired a first priority 18 perfected security interest in the Financed Vehicles. As to each security interest in a Financed Vehicle created by a Receivable, no filing or other action is necessary to perfect or continue the perfected status of such security interest as against creditors of or transferees from the obligor under such Receivable; provided that (A) no opinion is rendered as to a security interest in a Financed Vehicle as to which neither a properly endorsed certificate of title naming CarMax or an Affiliate or predecessor of CarMax as legal owner nor an application for an original registration together with an application for registration of CarMax or an Affiliate or predecessor of CarMax as legal owner, has been deposited with the appropriate department of motor vehicles and (B) no opinion is given as to the enforceability of the security interest in a Financed Vehicle as against a subsequent owner of a Financed Vehicle or a holder or assignee of a certificate of title relating to such Financed Vehicle through fraudulent or negligent transfer of such certificate title. (xi) The Securities, the Policy and the Basic Documents conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof and the statements relating thereto contained in the Prospectus. (xii) The execution, delivery and performance by CarMax of the CarMax Agreements and the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein and compliance with its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or Repayment Event under or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of CarMax or the Depositor pursuant to any Agreement or Instrument to which CarMax or the Depositor is a party or by which either may be bound (except for Liens permitted by the Basic Documents), or to which any of the property or assets of CarMax or the Depositor is subject (except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults or liens, charges or encumbrances that would not have a Material Adverse Effect), nor will such action result in any violation of any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree known to such counsel, of any government, government instrumentality or court having jurisdiction over CarMax or the Depositor or any of their respective properties, assets or operations. (xiii) The information set forth in any Computational Materials, any Structural Term Sheet or any Collateral Term Sheet and the Prospectus Supplement under the headings "Summary - Servicer", "Summary - Seller", "Risk Factors - Geographic Concentration May Result in More Risk to You", "The Receivables" and "CarMax" and the information set forth in the Base Prospectus under the headings "Summary - Servicer", "Summary - Seller", "The Receivables", "The Seller", "CarMax", "Certain Information Regarding the Securities" and "Material Legal Issues Relating to the Receivables", to the extent that they constitute matters of law or legal conclusions with respect thereto, have been prepared or reviewed by such counsel and provide a fair and accurate summary in all material respects. 19 (xiv) Neither the Trust nor the Depositor is required to register as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act. (xv) The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. (xvi) The Indenture creates a valid security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee in the Collateral, the security interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables and the proceeds of each of the foregoing. (xvii) The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act; to the best of such counsel's knowledge and information, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or threatened by the Commission. (xviii) The Registration Statement and the Prospectus (in each case other than the financial statements and supporting schedules included therein or omitted therefrom and the Trustee's Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1, as to which such counsel need not express any opinion), as of their respective effective or issue dates, as the case may be, complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations. Such counsel shall also state that such counsel has examined the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and nothing has come to such counsel's attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the Registration Statement (other than the financial statements and schedules and other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information, in each case contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and the Form T-1, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the time the Registration Statement became effective, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and schedules and other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information, in each case contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and the Form T-1, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the date thereof and at the Closing Time, included or includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (h) Opinion of Special Delaware Counsel for the Depositor. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], special Delaware counsel for the Depositor, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Depositor is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the 20 power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Depositor Agreements. (ii) The Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Depositor, dated as of August 6, 2003 (the "LLC Agreement"), by CarMax (the "Member"), as the sole equity member of the Depositor, and the special members named therein, constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Member, and is enforceable against the Member in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (iii) Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the Depositor has all necessary limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under the Depositor Agreements. (iv) Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements, and the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under the Depositor Agreements, have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Depositor. (v) The Depositor Agreements have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Depositor. (vi) The Trust Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its respective terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship and similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) The execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements, and the performance by the Depositor of its obligations thereunder, do not violate (A) any Delaware law, rule or regulation or (B) the LLC Certificate or the LLC Agreement. (viii) No authorization, consent, approval or order of any Delaware court or any Delaware governmental or administrative body is required solely in connection with the execution and delivery by the Depositor of the Depositor Agreements or the performance by the Depositor of its obligations thereunder. 21 (ix) The Depositor's assignment and delivery of the Receivables to the Trust and the filing of applicable UCC financing statements with the Delaware Secretary of State will vest in the Trust a first priority perfected security interest therein, subject to the security interest afforded to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement. (i) Opinion of Special Delaware Counsel for the Trust. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], special Delaware counsel for the Trust, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Trust has been duly formed and is validly existing as a statutory trust pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware, 12 Del. C. (S)(S) 3801, et seq. (the "Statutory Trust Act"), and has the power and authority under the Trust Agreement and the Act to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, to issue the Certificates and the Notes and to grant the Owner Trust Estate to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes. (ii) The Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trust and the Notes have been duly executed by the Trust. (iii) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party by the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and by each other party thereto each such Basic Document constitutes the valid, legal and binding obligation of the Trust enforceable against the Trust in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and except that no opinion need be expressed as to the availability of remedies of specific performance, injunction or other forms of equitable relief, all of which may be subject to certain tests of equity jurisdiction, equitable defenses and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. (iv) The Notes have been duly authorized, executed and issued by the Trust. (v) The Certificates have been duly authorized by the Trust and, when executed by the Trust, authenticated by the Owner Trustee and delivered to the purchasers thereof in accordance with the Trust Agreement and this Agreement, the Certificates will be validly issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Trust Agreement. (vi) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, the Certificates or the Notes, nor the consummation by the Trust of any of the transactions contemplated 22 thereby, requires the consent or approval of, the withholding of objection on the part of, the giving of notice to, the filing, registration or qualification with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority or agency of the State of Delaware, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State. (vii) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, the Certificates or the Notes, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the provisions of the Trust Agreement or any law, rule or regulation of the State of Delaware applicable to the Trust or, to our knowledge without independent investigation, any judgment or order of the Sate of Delaware applicable to the Trust or its properties or, to our knowledge without independent investigation, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other agreement or instrument to which the Trust is a party or by which it is bound. (viii) Under Section 3805(b) of the Statutory Trust Act, no creditor of any Certificate Owner shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the Owner Trust Estate except in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. (ix) Under Section 3805(c) of the Statutory Trust Act, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement, a Certificate Owner has no interest in specific Trust property. (x) Under Section 3808(a) and (b) of the Statutory Trust Act, the Trust may not be terminated or revoked by any Certificate Owner, and the dissolution, termination or bankruptcy of any Certificate Owner shall not result in the termination or dissolution of the Trust, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement. (xi) Under the Statutory Trust Act, the Trust is a separate legal entity and, assuming that the Sale and Servicing Agreement conveys good title to the Trust property to the Trust as a true sale and not as a security arrangement, the Trust rather than the Certificate Owners will hold whatever title to the Trust property as may be conveyed to it from time to time pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except to the extent that the Trust has taken action to dispose of or otherwise transfer or encumber any part of the Trust property. (xii) To the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the "UCC") is applicable (without regard to conflicts of laws principles), and assuming that the security interest created by the Indenture in the Collateral has been duly created and has attached, upon the filing of the Financing Statement with the Secretary of State, the Indenture Trustee will have a perfected security interest in the Trust's rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the Financing Statement that constitutes "chattel paper," 23 "general intangibles" or "accounts" (as such terms are defined in the UCC) and the proceeds thereof; and such security interest will be prior, subject to the security interest afforded to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement, to any other security interest granted by the Trust that is perfected solely by the filing of financing statements under the UCC, subject to Section 9-312 of the UCC (with respect to purchase money security interests) and Section 9-306 of the UCC (with respect to temporarily perfected security interests in proceeds). (j) Opinion of Counsel for the Insurer. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], counsel for the Insurer, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that: (i) The Insurer is a corporation validly existing, in good standing and licensed to transact the business of surety and financial guaranty insurance under the laws of [____________]. (ii) The Insurer has the corporate power to execute and deliver, and to take all action required of it under the Policy, the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement. (iii) Except as have already been obtained, no authorization, consent, approval, license, formal exemption, or declaration from, nor any registration or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body of the United States of America or the State of [____________], which if not obtained would affect or impair the validity or enforceability of the Policy, the Insurance Agreement or the Indemnification Agreement against the Insurer, is required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Insurer of the Policy, the Insurance Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement or in connection with the Insurer's performance of its obligations thereunder. (iv) The Policy, the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Insurer, and the Policy and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement by the parties thereto (other than the Insurer), the Insurance Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement, constitute the legally valid and binding obligations of the Insurer, enforceable against the Insurer in accordance with their respective terms subject, as to enforcement, to (A) bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, including, without limitation, laws relating to fraudulent transfers or conveyances, preferential transfers and equitable subordination, presently or from time to time in effect and general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), as such laws may be applied in any such proceeding with respect to the Insurer, (B) the qualification that the remedy of specific performance may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceedings with respect thereto 24 may be brought and (C) the enforceability of rights to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement may be subject to limitations of public policy under applicable securities laws. (v) The Policy is not required to be registered under the Securities Act. (k) Opinion of Counsel for the Insurer. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], Esq., General Counsel of the Insurer, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that no information has come to the attention of such counsel which would cause him to believe that the information under the captions "Description of the Insurer" and "Description of the Insurance Policy" in the Prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, misleading. (l) Opinion of Counsel for the Indenture Trustee. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of in-house counsel for the Indenture Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) The Indenture Trustee has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a [____________] under the laws of [____________]. (ii) The Indenture Trustee, at the time of its execution and delivery of the Indenture, had full power and authority to execute and deliver the Indenture and has full power and authority to perform its obligations thereunder. (iii) The Indenture has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights or by general principles of equity. (iv) To the best of such counsel's knowledge, there are no actions, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against or affecting the Indenture Trustee before or by any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority which, if adversely decided, would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Indenture Trustee to carry out the transactions contemplated in the Indenture. (v) No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body of the United States of America or any state thereof was or is required for the execution, delivery or performance by the Indenture Trustee of the Indenture. 25 (vi) Each of the Basic Documents to which the Indenture Trustee is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its respective terms, except that certain of such obligations may be enforceable solely against the Collateral and except that such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and by general principles of equity, including without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (vii) The Notes have been duly authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. (m) Opinion of Counsel for the Owner Trustee. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of [_______________], counsel for the Owner Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, substantially to the effect that: (i) [________________] is duly incorporated and validly existing as a [____________] under the laws of [____________] and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Trust Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. (ii) The Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by [_______________] and is the legal, valid and binding agreement of [_______________], enforceable against [_______________] in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (iii) The Owner Trustee has duly executed and delivered each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the authorization contained in the Trust Agreement. (iv) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by [_______________] of the Trust Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor compliance with the terms thereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the charter or bylaws of [_______________] or any law, rule or regulation of [____________] governing the banking or trust powers of [____________] or, to our knowledge, without independent investigation, any judgment or order of [____________] applicable to [_______________] or its properties or, to our knowledge, without 26 independent investigation, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other agreement or instrument to which [_______________] is a party or by which it is bound. (v) No consent, approval or other authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any court or governmental agency or commission of [____________] is required by or with respect to [_______________] for the (A) valid execution, delivery and performance of the Trust Agreement, (B) valid execution and delivery by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust of the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, or (C) validity or enforceability the agreements listed in clauses (A) or (B) of this paragraph, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State. (vi) To our knowledge, without independent investigation, there are no pending or threatened actions, suits or proceedings affecting [_______________] before any court or other government authority of [____________] which, if adversely determined, would materially and adversely affect the ability of [_______________] to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Trust Agreement. (n) Opinion of Counsel for the Underwriters. At the Closing Time, the Underwriters shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as of the Closing Time, of Sidley Austin Brown & Wood LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters. In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely, as to all matters governed by the laws of jurisdictions other than the law of the State of New York and the federal law of the United States, upon the opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters. (o) Reliance Letters. At the Closing Time, counsel to CarMax and the Depositor shall provide reliance letters to the Underwriters relating to each legal opinion relating to the transaction contemplated hereby rendered to either Trustee or either Rating Agency. (p) Maintenance of Rating. At the Closing Time, the Class A-1 Notes shall be rated by each Rating Agency in its highest short-term rating category and each other class of Securities shall be rated in its highest rating category, and the Depositor shall have delivered to the Underwriters a letter dated the Closing Time from each Rating Agency, or other evidence satisfactory to the Underwriters, confirming that the Securities have such ratings; and since the date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred a downgrading in the rating assigned to the Securities or any other securities of CarMax or any of its Affiliates by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization", as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act, and no such rating agency shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of the Securities or any other securities of CarMax or any of its Affiliates. (q) Additional Rating Agency Requirements. The Depositor will, to the extent, if any, that the ratings provided with respect to the Securities by either Rating 27 Agency are conditioned upon the furnishing or the taking of any other actions by the Depositor, furnish such documents and take all such other actions. (r) Additional Documents. At the Closing Time, counsel for the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as it may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling it to pass upon the issuance of the Securities and the sale of the Securities as herein contemplated, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties or the fulfillment of any of the conditions herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Depositor in connection with the foregoing shall be satisfactory in form and substance to counsel for the Underwriters. (s) Termination of Agreement. If any condition specified in this Section shall not have been fulfilled when and as required to be fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by the Underwriters by notice to the Depositor at any time at or prior to the Closing Time, and such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 and except that Sections 1, 6, 7 and 8 shall survive any such termination and remain in full force and effect. Section 6. Indemnification. (a) Indemnification of Underwriters. CarMax and the Depositor agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows: (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(d)) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Depositor; and (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Underwriters), reasonably incurred in 28 investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under clause (i) or (ii) above; provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Depositor by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the following information under the caption "Underwriting" in each of the Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement, and in the Prospectus Supplement the (i) concession and reallowance figures appearing in the second table and (ii) information regarding discretionary sales contained in the second, third and ---------- paragraphs. The terms "Collateral Term Sheet" and "Structural Term Sheet" shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the February 13, 1995 letter of Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton on behalf of the Public Securities Association (which letter, and the Commission's response thereto, were publicly available February 17, 1995). The term "Collateral Term Sheet" as used herein includes any subsequent Collateral Term Sheet that reflects a substantive change in the information presented. The term "Computational Materials" has the meaning assigned to it in the May 17, 1994 letter of Brown & Wood on behalf of Kidder, Peabody & Co., Inc. (which letter, and the Commission's response thereto, were publicly available May 20, 1994). (b) Indemnification of CarMax and the Depositor. The Underwriters agree severally but not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless CarMax and the Depositor and each person, if any, who controls CarMax and the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 6(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, of material facts made in the Prospectus (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to CarMax and the Depositor by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), each Collateral Term Sheet (if any), each Structural Term Sheet (if any), all Computational Materials (if any), any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). (c) Actions Against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from 29 any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a), counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Underwriters, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b), counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by CarMax or the Depositor. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section or Section 7 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. (d) Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. Section 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds 30 from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by CarMax and the Depositor and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, bear to the aggregate initial offering prices of the Securities. The relative fault of CarMax and the Depositor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by CarMax and the Depositor or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. CarMax, the Depositor and the Underwriters each agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter in respect of the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls CarMax or the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as CarMax and the Depositor. The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section are several in proportion to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A and not joint. Section 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of CarMax and the Depositor and their Affiliates submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any controlling person, or by or on behalf of CarMax and the Depositor and their Affiliates, and shall survive delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters. 31 Section 9. Termination of Agreement. (a) Termination; General. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Depositor, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of CarMax or the Depositor, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (iii) if trading in any securities of CarMax, the Depositor or any of their Affiliates has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or if trading generally on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq National Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any other governmental authority, (iv) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearing services in the United States or (v) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either federal, Virginia, [____________] or New York authorities. (b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4, and provided further that Sections 1, 6, 7, 8 and 10 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect. Section 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase the Notes which it or they are obligated to purchase (the "Defaulted Securities"), then the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representative shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then: (a) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations in Schedule A bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or (b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter. 32 No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement either the Representative or the Depositor shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. Section 11. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Representative at [____________________], attention of [____________]; notices to CarMax or the Depositor, respectively, shall be directed to it at 4900 Cox Road, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, attention of General Counsel. Section 12. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors and the controlling persons, directors and officers referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters, CarMax, the Depositor and their respective successors, and the controlling persons, directors and officers referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase. Section 13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflicts of law provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law), and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties under this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with such laws. Section 14. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not effect the construction hereof. 33 Underwriting Agreement If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Representative a counterpart hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement among CarMax, the Depositor and the several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.

Failure of the Company, or the Member or Board on behalf of the Company, to comply with any of the foregoing covenants or any other covenants contained in this Agreement shall not affect the status of the Company as a separate legal entity or the limited liability of the Member or the Directors. 12 (e) So long as any Obligation is outstanding, the Board shall not cause or permit the Company to: (1) except as contemplated in the Basic Documents, guarantee any obligation of any Person, including any Affiliate; (2) engage, directly or indirectly, in any business other than the activities required or permitted to be performed under Article Three, the Basic Documents or this Section; (3) incur, create or assume any indebtedness other than as expressly permitted under Article Three, the Basic Documents or this Section; (4) make or permit to remain outstanding any loan or advance to, or own or acquire any stock or securities of, any Person, except that the Company may invest in those investments permitted under Article Three, the Basic Documents or this Section and may make any advance required or expressly permitted to be made pursuant to any provision of Article Three, the Basic Documents or this Section and permit the same to remain outstanding in accordance with such provisions; (5) to the fullest extent permitted by law, engage in any dissolution, liquidation, consolidation, merger, asset sale or transfer of ownership interests other than such activities as are expressly permitted pursuant to any provision of Article Three, the Basic Documents or this Section; or (6) except as contemplated by Article Three or the Basic Documents, form, acquire or hold any subsidiary (whether a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity). Section 4.11. Independent Directors. As long as any Obligation is outstanding, the Member shall cause the Company at all times to have at least two Independent Directors who will be appointed by the Member. To the fullest extent permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, the Independent Directors shall consider only the interests of the Company, including its respective creditors, in acting or otherwise voting on the matters referred to in Section 4.10.

In the event of a vacancy in the position of Independent Director, the Member shall, as soon as practicable, appoint a successor Independent Director. All right, power and authority of the Independent Directors shall be limited to the extent necessary to exercise those rights and perform those duties specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except as provided in the second sentence of this Section, in exercising its rights and performing its duties under this Agreement, each Independent Director shall have a fiduciary duty of loyalty and care similar to that of a director of a business corporation organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. No Independent Director shall at any time serve as trustee in bankruptcy for any Affiliate of the Company. 13 Section 4.12. Officers. (a) Officers.

If the Member is permitted to resign pursuant to this Section, an additional member of the Company shall be admitted to the Company, subject to Section 8.03, upon its execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which instrument may be a counterpart signature page to this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the Bankruptcy of the Member or a Special Member shall not cause the Member or Special Member, as the case may be, to cease to be a member of the Company and upon the occurrence of such an event, the business of the Company shall continue without dissolution and (ii) each of the Member and each Special Member waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Company upon the Bankruptcy of the Member or a Special Member, or the occurrence of an event that causes the Member or a Special Member to cease to be a member of the Company. (c) In the event of dissolution, the Company shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up its affairs (including the sale of the assets of the Company in an orderly manner), and the assets of the Company shall be applied in the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in Section 18-804 of the Act.

The Member shall not have any interest in any specific assets of the Company, and the Member shall not have the status of a creditor with respect to any distribution pursuant to Section 5.04. The interest of the Member in the Company is personal property. 21 ARTICLE NINE MISCELLANEOUS Section 9.01. Amendments.

For each calendar quarter, other than periods in which there is only one Certificateholder: (i) net income of the Trust for any calendar quarter as determined for federal income tax purposes (and each item of income, gain, credit, loss or deduction entering into the computation thereof) shall be allocated among the Certificateholders as of the first day following the end of such quarter in proportion to their Certificate Percentage Interest on such date; and (ii) net losses of the Trust, if any, for any calendar quarter as determined for federal income tax purposes (and each item of income, gain, credit, loss or deduction entering into the computation thereof) shall be allocated among the Certificateholders as of the first day following the end of such quarter in proportion to their Certificate Percentage Interest on such date.

Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.5 and until the issuance of the Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust. SECTION 3.2 The Certificates. The Certificates shall be issued in one or more registered, definitive, physical certificates, in the form set forth in Exhibit A. The Certificates may be in printed or typewritten form and shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates. If Transfer of the Certificates is permitted pursuant to this Section 3.2 and Section 3.4, a transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee's acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in such transferee's name pursuant to Section 3.4. SECTION 3.3 Authentication of Certificates.

No Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A executed by the Owner Trustee by manual signature, which authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. Upon issuance, authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms hereof, the Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. SECTION 3.4 Registration of Certificates; Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Owner Trustee initially shall be the registrar (the "Certificate Registrar") for the purpose of registering Certificates and Transfers of Certificates as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8, a register (the "Certificate Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and the registration of Transfers of Certificates. Upon any resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee shall, upon receipt of written instructions from the Depositor, promptly appoint a successor. 9 (b) The Certificates may not be acquired by or for the account of (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title 1 of ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (iii) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's investment in the entity (each, a "Plan"). Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Certificateholder (A) is not a Plan and is not a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or a Person using the assets of a Plan to effect the transfer of such Certificate, and (B) is not an insurance company purchasing a Certificate with funds contained in an "insurance company general account" (as defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) that includes the assets of a Plan for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulation. Any person who is not an affiliate of the Seller and acquires more than 49.9% of the Certificates will be deemed to represent that it is not a party in interest (within the meaning of ERISA) or a disqualified person (within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code) with respect to any Plan, other than a Plan that it sponsors for the benefit of its employees, and that no Plan with respect to which it is a party in interest has or will acquire any interest in the Notes. To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any Certificate that is in fact not permitted or for taking any other action with respect to such Certificate under the provisions of this Agreement so long as such transfer was registered by the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in accordance with this Agreement. (c) Upon surrender for registration of Transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.8, and upon compliance with any provisions of this Agreement relating to such Transfer, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Certificateholder making such surrender, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in any authorized denomination evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W-8 BEN, W-8 ECI or W-9, as applicable, in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates. SECTION 3.5 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. (a) If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such 10 security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trust, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for, or in lieu of, any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, as the case may be, a replacement Certificate, as the case may be, of like tenor and Certificate Percentage Interest. If, after the delivery of such replacement Certificate or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) of the original Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Certificate was issued presents for payment such original Certificate, the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Certificate (or such payment) from the Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Trust or the Owner Trustee in connection therewith. (b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Certificate under this Section 3.5, the Trust may require the payment by the Holder of such Certificate of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with such issuance and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee) related thereto. (c) Every replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.5 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Trust, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Certificates duly issued hereunder. (d) The provisions of this Section 3.5 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates. SECTION 3.6 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name such Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.2 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 3.7 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Depositor, or to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Servicer, the Depositor or the 11 Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, a list, in such form as the requesting party may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders or one or more Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. SECTION 3.8 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and the Transaction Documents may be served. The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Registrar or any such office or agency. SECTION 3.9 Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Payment Account pursuant to Section 5.2 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Payment Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

SECTION 4.4 Restrictions on Certificateholders' Power. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.3, nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given. SECTION 4.5 Majority Control. Except as expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken by the Certificateholders under this Agreement may be taken by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest.

ARTICLE V APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES SECTION 5.1 Establishment of Certificate Payment Account. Pursuant to Section 4.1(c) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer has agreed to establish, on or before the Closing Date, and maintain in the name of the Owner Trustee at an Eligible Institution (which shall initially be the Owner Trustee) a segregated trust account designated as the "CarMax Auto Owner Trust 20[__]-[__] Trust Account" (the "Certificate Payment Account"). The Certificate Payment Account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Except as expressly provided in Section 3.9, the Certificate Payment Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee. All monies deposited from time to time in the Certificate Payment Account pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Indenture shall be applied as provided in this Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. SECTION 5.2 Application of Trust Funds. (a) On each Distribution Date, upon receipt of written instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.9 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall, or, if the Owner Trustee is not the Paying Agent, shall direct the Paying Agent to, distribute to the Certificateholders, in proportion to each Certificateholder's Certificate Percentage Interest, amounts deposited in the Certificate Payment Account on such Distribution Date pursuant to 14 Section 4.7 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 2.8 of the Indenture with respect to such Distribution Date. (b) On each Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee shall, or, if the Owner Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall direct the Paying Agent to, send to each Certificateholder the statement provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.9 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date. (c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on any Trust payment (or any allocation of income) to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section 5.2. The Owner Trustee and each Paying Agent are hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any such withholding tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee may withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 5.2. If a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. SECTION 5.3 Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.1(c), distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent appropriate written instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date and such Certificateholder is the Seller or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Certificate (whether on the Final Distribution Date or otherwise) will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Certificate Registrar pursuant to Section 3.8. SECTION 5.4 No Segregation of Monies; No Interest. Subject to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, monies received by the Owner Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law, the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon. 15 SECTION 5.5 Accounting and Reports to the Noteholders, Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall, based on information provided by the Seller, (i) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Trust on the basis of a fiscal year ending December 31, and based on the accrual method of accounting, (ii) deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, such information as may be required (including Schedule K-1) to enable such Certificateholder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns, (iii) file such tax returns relating to the Trust (including a partnership information return, IRS Form 1065) and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Trust's characterization as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, (iv) cause such tax returns to be signed in the manner required by law and (v) collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as described in and in accordance with Section 5.2(c) with respect to income or distributions to Certificateholders. The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the Receivables. The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall not make the election provided under Section 754 of the Code. The Owner Trustee may satisfy its obligations with respect to this Section 5.5 by retaining, at the expense of the Seller, a firm of independent public accountants (the "Accountants") selected by the Seller. The Owner Trustee may require the Accountants to provide to the Owner Trustee, on or before March 15, 20[__], a letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee as to whether any federal tax withholding on Certificates is then required and, if required, the procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the requirements of the Code. The Accountants shall be required to update such letter in each instance that any additional tax withholding is subsequently required or any previously required tax withholding shall no longer be required. The Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.5 upon its retention of the Accountants, and the Owner Trustee shall not have any liability with respect to the default or misconduct of the Accountants. SECTION 5.6 Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner. (a) The Owner Trustee shall sign, on behalf of the Trust, the tax returns of the Trust. (b) The Seller, as a Certificateholder, shall be designated the "tax matters partner" of the Trust pursuant to Section 6231(a)(7)(A) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations. ARTICLE VI AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 6.1 General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party, in each case in such form as the Depositor shall 16 approve, as evidenced conclusively by the Owner Trustee's execution thereof and the Depositor's execution of this Agreement, and to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $[_______________] (comprised of $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-1 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-2 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-3 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-4 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class B Notes and $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class C Notes).

SECTION 6.2 General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to administer the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, subject to the lien of the Indenture and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged (or caused to be discharged) its duties and responsibilities hereunder to the extent the Administrator is required in the Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge such duty of the Owner Trustee or the Trust hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement. SECTION 6.3 Action upon Instruction. (a) Subject to Article IV, and in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Certificateholders may, by written instruction, direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust. (b) The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or is otherwise contrary to law. (c) Subject to Article IV, whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Certificateholders received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate written instruction within ten (10) days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under 17 the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. (d) Subject to Article IV, in the event the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate written instruction within ten (10) days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. SECTION 6.4 No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee or the Trust is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or otherwise to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of 24 this Section 10.1, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.2. SECTION 10.2 Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator and the Depositor. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor) by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or the Owner Trustee shall otherwise become incapable of acting, then the Administrator may remove the Owner Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor) by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the removed Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.3 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to the Depositor, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. SECTION 10.3 Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon, subject to the payment of all fees and expenses owed to the predecessor Owner Trustee, the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective and such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall, upon payment of its fees and expenses, deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents, statements and monies held by it under this Agreement, and the Administrator and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. 25 No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 10.3 unless, at the time of such acceptance, such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 10.3 shall file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State reflecting the name and principal place of business of such successor in the State of Delaware. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Administrator shall mail notice of such appointment to all Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. If the Administrator shall fail to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Administrator. SECTION 10.4 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee.

The Owner Trustee shall provide the Rating Agencies with prior written notice of any such transaction. (b) If at the time such successor or successors by consolidation, merger or conversion to the Owner Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Agreement any of the Certificates shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Certificates so authenticated, and in case at that time any of the Certificates shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may authenticate such Certificates either in the name of any predecessor trustee or in the name of the successor to the Owner Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which the Certificates or this Agreement provide that the certificate of the Owner Trustee shall have. SECTION 10.5 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and may execute and deliver an instrument to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Owner Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.5, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and 26 trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 10.1 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 10.3. (b) Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee shall not be authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee; (ii) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and (iii) the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator. (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Owner Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent permitted by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee. 27 ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 11.1 Supplements and Amendments.

Each Certificate Owner, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Certificate Owner (A) is not a Plan and is not a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or a Person using the assets of a Plan to effect the transfer of such Certificate, and (B) is not an insurance company purchasing a Certificate with funds contained in an "insurance company general account" (as defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) that includes the assets of a Plan for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulation. Any person who is not an affiliate of the Seller and acquires more than 49.9% of the Certificates will be deemed to represent that it is not a party in interest (within the meaning of ERISA) or a disqualified person (within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code) with respect to any Plan, other than a Plan that it sponsors for the benefit of its employees, and that no Plan with respect to which it is a party in interest has or will acquire any interest in the Notes. To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any Certificate that is in fact not permitted or for taking any other action with respect to such Certificate under the provisions of this Agreement so long as such transfer was registered by the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in accordance with this Agreement. 11 (c) Upon surrender for registration of Transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.8, and upon compliance with any provisions of this Agreement relating to such Transfer, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Certificateholder making such surrender, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in any authorized denomination evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W-8 BEN, W-8 ECI or W-9, as applicable, in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates. SECTION 3.5 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. (a) If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trust, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for, or in lieu of, any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, as the case may be, a replacement Certificate, as the case may be, of like tenor and denomination; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, but not a mutilated Certificate, shall have become or within seven (7) days of the Certificate Registrar's receipt of evidence to its satisfaction of such destruction, loss or theft shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for prepayment in whole pursuant to Section 9.2, instead of issuing a replacement Certificate, the Owner Trustee may direct the Paying Agent to pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate when so due or payable or upon the Prepayment Date without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Certificate or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) of the original Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Certificate was issued presents for payment such original Certificate, the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Certificate (or such payment) from the Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement Certificate was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Trust or the Owner Trustee in connection therewith. 12 (b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Certificate under this Section 3.5, the Trust may require the payment by the Holder of such Certificate of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with such issuance and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee) related thereto. (c) Every replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.5 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Trust, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Certificates duly issued hereunder. (d) The provisions of this Section 3.5 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates. SECTION 3.6 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name such Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.2 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 3.7 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Depositor, or to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Servicer, the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, a list, in such form as the requesting party may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders or one or more Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. SECTION 3.8 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the 13 Certificates and the Transaction Documents may be served. The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Registrar or any such office or agency. SECTION 3.9 Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Payment Account pursuant to Section 5.2 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Payment Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Owner Trustee and any co-paying agent chosen by the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the Depositor. In the event that the Owner Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee, upon receipt of written instructions from the Depositor and with the consent of the Insurer, shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Owner Trustee shall direct such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.1, 7.3 and 8.1 shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise. SECTION 3.10 Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued as Book-Entry Certificates and shall be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Trust. The Book-Entry Certificates shall be registered initially on the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner shall receive a definitive Certificate representing such Certificate Owner's interest in a Certificate except as provided in Section 3.12. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") have been issued to the Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.12: (i) the provisions of this Section 3.10 shall be in full force and effect; (ii) the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Agreement (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Certificates and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of the Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Certificate Owners; 14 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.10 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.10 shall control; (iv) the rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Certificate Depository Agreement, and, unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to the Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.12, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants; and (v) whenever this Agreement requires or permits actions to be taken based upon written instructions or directions of Holders of Certificates evidencing a specified percentage of the Certificate Balance, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received written instructions to such effect from Certificate Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Certificates and has delivered such written instructions to the Owner Trustee. SECTION 3.11 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to the Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.12, the Owner Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Certificates to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to such Certificate Owners. SECTION 3.12 Definitive Certificates. If (i) the Depositor, the Administrator or the Servicer advises the Owner Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates and the Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor, at its option, advises the Owner Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Servicing Termination, Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates representing beneficial interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance advise the Owner Trustee and the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of such Certificate Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Certificate Owners and the Owner Trustee in writing of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender by the Clearing Agency to the Certificate Registrar of the Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates, accompanied by registration instructions, the Owner Trustee shall execute and authenticate the Definitive Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders. 15 ARTICLE IV ACTIONS BY OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 4.1 Prior Notice to Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters.

SECTION 4.2 Action by Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters. The Owner Trustee may not, except upon the occurrence of an Event of Servicing Termination subsequent to the payment in full of the Notes and in accordance with the written direction of the Insurer, if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or, if an Insurer Default 16 shall have occurred and be continuing, in accordance with the written direction of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, (i) remove the Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (ii) appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (iii) remove the Administrator pursuant to Section 9 of the Administration Agreement, (iv) appoint a successor Administrator pursuant to Section 9 of the Administration Agreement or (v) sell the Receivables after the termination of the Indenture, except as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 4.4 Restrictions on Certificateholders' Power. Neither the Insurer nor the Certificateholders shall direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.3, nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given. SECTION 4.5 Majority Control. Except as expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken by the Certificateholders under this Agreement may be taken by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance.

SECTION 4.6 Certain Litigation Matters. The Owner Trustee shall provide prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Insurer of any action, proceeding or investigation known to the Owner Trustee that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Trust or the Owner Trust Estate or the rights or obligations of the Insurer under any of the Transaction Documents. If no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and neither the Depositor nor CarMax shall be actively defending any such action, proceeding or investigation, then the Owner Trustee shall, upon written notice from the Insurer, allow the Insurer to institute, assume or control the defense of such action, proceeding or investigation. ARTICLE V APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES SECTION 5.1 Establishment of Certificate Payment Account. Pursuant to Section 4.1(c) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer has agreed to establish, on or before the Closing Date, and maintain in the name of the Owner Trustee at an Eligible Institution (which shall initially be the Owner Trustee) a segregated trust account designated as the "CarMax Auto Owner Trust 20[__]-[__] Trust Account" (the "Certificate Payment Account"). 17 The Certificate Payment Account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Except as expressly provided in Section 3.9, the Certificate Payment Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee. All monies deposited from time to time in the Certificate Payment Account pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Indenture shall be applied as provided in this Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. SECTION 5.2 Application of Trust Funds. (a) On each Distribution Date, upon receipt of written instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.9 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall, or, if the Owner Trustee is not the Paying Agent, shall direct the Paying Agent to, apply the amount on deposit in the Certificate Payment Account on such Distribution Date to make the following distributions in the following order of priority: (i) to the Certificateholders, the Total Certificate Interest for such Distribution Date; and (ii) to the Certificateholders, the Monthly Certificate Principal for such Distribution Date. If the amount on deposit in the Certificate Payment Account on any Distribution Date is less than the amount described in clauses (i) and (ii) above for such Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee shall, or, if the Owner Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall direct the Paying Agent to, pay the available amount to the Holders of each Certificate pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of such Certificate as of such Distribution Date. (b) On each Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee shall, or, if the Owner Trustee is not the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall direct the Paying Agent to, send to each Certificateholder the statement provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.9 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date. (c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on any Trust payment (or any allocation of income) to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section 5.2. The Owner Trustee and each Paying Agent are hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any such withholding tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee may withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 5.2. If a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such 18 Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. SECTION 5.3 Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.1(c), distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent appropriate written instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date and such Certificateholder is a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), or (ii) such Certificateholder is the Depositor or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Certificate (whether on the Final Distribution Date or otherwise) will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Certificate Registrar pursuant to Section 3.8. SECTION 5.4 No Segregation of Monies; No Interest. Subject to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, monies received by the Owner Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law, the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon. SECTION 5.5 Accounting and Reports to the Noteholders, Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall, based on information provided by the Seller, (i) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Trust on the basis of a fiscal year ending December 31, and based on the accrual method of accounting, (ii) deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, such information as may be required (including Schedule K-1) to enable such Certificateholder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns, (iii) file such tax returns relating to the Trust (including a partnership information return, IRS Form 1065) and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Trust's characterization as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, (iv) cause such tax returns to be signed in the manner required by law and (v) collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as described in and in accordance with Section 5.2(c) with respect to income or distributions to Certificateholders. The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the Receivables. The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall not make the election provided under Section 754 of the Code. The Owner Trustee may satisfy its obligations with respect to this Section 5.5 by retaining, at the expense of the Seller, a firm of independent public accountants (the "Accountants") selected by the Seller. The Owner Trustee may require the Accountants to provide to the Owner Trustee, on or before March 31, 20[__], a letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee as to whether any federal tax withholding on Certificates is then required and, if required, the procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the requirements of the Code. The Accountants shall be required to update such letter in each 19 instance that any additional tax withholding is subsequently required or any previously required tax withholding shall no longer be required. The Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.5 upon its retention of the Accountants, and the Owner Trustee shall not have any liability with respect to the default or misconduct of the Accountants. SECTION 5.6 Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner. (a) The Owner Trustee shall sign, on behalf of the Trust, the tax returns of the Trust. (b) The Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest, shall be designated the "tax matters partner" of the Trust pursuant to Section 6231(a)(7)(A) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations. ARTICLE VI AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 6.1 General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party, in each case in such form as the Depositor shall approve, as evidenced conclusively by the Owner Trustee's execution thereof and the Depositor's execution of this Agreement, and to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $[_______________] (comprised of $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-1 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-2 Notes, $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-3 Notes and $[_______________] in aggregate principal amount of Class A-4 Notes). In addition to the foregoing, the Owner Trustee is authorized to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The Owner Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action on behalf of the Trust as is permitted by the Transaction Documents and which the Certificateholders, the Servicer or the Administrator recommends in writing with respect to the Transaction Documents, except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires the consent of Certificateholders for such action. SECTION 6.2 General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to administer the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, subject to the lien of the Indenture and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged (or caused to be discharged) its duties and responsibilities hereunder to the extent the Administrator is required in the Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge such duty of the Owner Trustee or the Trust hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement. 20 SECTION 6.3 Action upon Instruction. (a) Subject to Article IV, and in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Certificateholders may, by written instruction, direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust. (b) The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or is otherwise contrary to law. (c) Subject to Article IV, whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Insurer or the Certificateholders, as applicable, requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Insurer or the Certificateholders received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate written instruction within ten (10) days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. (d) Subject to Article IV, in the event the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Insurer or the Certificateholders, as applicable, requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate written instruction within ten (10) days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. SECTION 6.4 No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any 21 document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee or the Trust is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or otherwise to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Owner Trustee shall, however, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any lien (other than the lien of the Indenture) on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that results from actions by, or claims against, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate. SECTION 6.5 No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party and (iii) in accordance with any document or written instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3. SECTION 6.6 Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.3 or (ii) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would (A) affect the treatment of the Notes as indebtedness for federal income or Virginia income or franchise tax purposes, (B) be deemed to cause a taxable exchange of the Notes for federal income or Virginia income or franchise tax purposes or (C) cause the Trust or any portion thereof to be taxable as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for federal income or Virginia income or franchise tax purposes. The Certificateholders, the Administrator, the Servicer and the Insurer shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section 6.6. ARTICLE VII REGARDING THE OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 7.1 Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. The Owner Trustee accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to perform its duties hereunder with respect to such trusts but only upon the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII COMPENSATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OWNER TRUSTEE SECTION 8.1 Owner Trustee's Fees and Expenses. The Owner Trustee shall receive as compensation for its services hereunder such fees as have been separately agreed upon before the date hereof between the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, and the Owner Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Servicer for its other reasonable expenses hereunder, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, experts and counsel as the Owner Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and its duties hereunder. SECTION 8.2 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the initial Servicer shall be liable as prime obligor for, and shall indemnify the Owner Trustee and its successors, assigns, agents and servants (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, "Expenses") which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Owner Trustee or any other Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the Owner Trust Estate, the administration of the Owner Trust Estate or the action or inaction of the Owner Trustee hereunder; provided, however, that the initial Servicer shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or resulting from any of the matters described in the third sentence of Section 7.1. In no event will the initial Servicer or the Owner Trustee be entitled to make any claim upon the Owner Trust Estate for the payment or reimbursement of any Expenses. The indemnities contained in this Section 8.2 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination of this Agreement. In the event of any claim, action or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Owner Trustee's choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the initial Servicer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 26 SECTION 8.3 Payments to the Owner Trustee. Any amounts paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Article VIII shall be deemed not to be a part of the Owner Trust Estate immediately after such payment. ARTICLE IX TERMINATION SECTION 9.1 Termination of Trust Agreement. (a) This Agreement (other than the provisions of Article VIII) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Trust shall dissolve upon the earlier of (i) the payment to the Servicer, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders and the Insurer of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Insurance Agreement and Article V and (ii) the Distribution Date next succeeding the month which is one year after the maturity or other liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of any property remaining in the Trust; provided, however, in each case, that the Policy shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and returned to the Insurer for cancellation. The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, entitle such Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Trust or Owner Trust Estate or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto. (b) No Certificateholder shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust. (c) Notice of any termination of the Trust, specifying the Distribution Date upon which the Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Paying Agent for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given by the Owner Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice of such termination from the Servicer, stating (i) the Distribution Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the Certificates shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified. The Owner Trustee shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders, subject to Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute, amounts distributable on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.2. In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their 27 Certificates and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the Owner Trustee to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest. (d) Upon the winding up of the Trust, in accordance with Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute, and its termination, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be canceled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust Statute. SECTION 9.2 Prepayment of the Certificates. (a) The Certificates are subject to prepayment in whole, but not in part, at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, on any Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the assets of the Trust pursuant to such Section 9.1(a), and the amount paid by the Servicer shall be treated as collections of payments on the Receivables and applied to pay all amounts due to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement plus the unpaid principal amount of the Notes plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Notes plus the Certificate Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Certificates plus all amounts due to the Insurer under the Transaction Documents or the Policy. The Owner Trustee shall furnish notice of such prepayment to each Certificateholder. If the Certificates are to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 9.2(a), the Prepayment Price shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date. (b) Notice of prepayment of the Certificates under Section 9.2(a) shall be given by the Owner Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile mailed or transmitted promptly following receipt by the Owner Trustee of notice from the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, but not later than ten (10) days prior to the applicable Prepayment Date, to each Holder of the Certificates as of the close of business on the Record Date preceding the applicable Prepayment Date, at such Holder's address or facsimile number appearing in the Certificate Register. All notices of prepayment shall state: (i) the Prepayment Date; (ii) the Prepayment Price; and (iii) the place where the Certificates are to be surrendered for payment of the Prepayment Price (which shall be the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.8). Notice of prepayment of the Certificates shall be given by the Owner Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Trust. Any failure to give notice of prepayment, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Certificate shall not, however, impair or affect the validity of the prepayment of any other Certificate. 28 (c) The Certificates to be prepaid shall, following notice of prepayment as required by Section 9.2(b), become due and payable on the Prepayment Date at the Prepayment Price and (unless the Trust shall default in the payment of the Prepayment Price) no interest shall accrue on the Prepayment Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating the Prepayment Price. Following payment in full of the Prepayment Price, this Agreement (other than the provisions of Article VIII) and the Trust shall terminate in accordance with Section 9.1(a).

If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.2. SECTION 10.2 Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator, the Depositor and the Insurer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor and the Insurer) by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or the Owner Trustee shall otherwise become incapable of acting, then the Administrator may remove the Owner Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor and the Insurer) by written instrument, in duplicate, one 29 copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the removed Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.3 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to the Depositor, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies. SECTION 10.3 Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon, subject to the payment of all fees and expenses owed to the predecessor Owner Trustee, the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective and such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall, upon payment of its fees and expenses, deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents, statements and monies held by it under this Agreement, and the Administrator and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 10.3 unless, at the time of such acceptance, such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 10.3 shall file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State reflecting the name and principal place of business of such successor in the State of Delaware. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Administrator shall mail notice of such appointment to all Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. If the Administrator shall fail to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Administrator. SECTION 10.4 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. (a) If the Owner Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act, except the filing of an amendment to the Certificate of Trust, if required under the Statutory Trust Statute, shall be the successor Owner Trustee; provided, however, that such corporation or banking association must be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 10.1. 30 The Owner Trustee shall provide the Rating Agencies with prior written notice of any such transaction. (b) If at the time such successor or successors by consolidation, merger or conversion to the Owner Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Agreement any of the Certificates shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Certificates so authenticated, and in case at that time any of the Certificates shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Owner Trustee may authenticate such Certificates either in the name of any predecessor trustee or in the name of the successor to the Owner Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which the Certificates or this Agreement provide that the certificate of the Owner Trustee shall have. SECTION 10.5 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and may execute and deliver an instrument to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Owner Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.5, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 10.1 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 10.3. (b) Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee shall not be authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee; 31 (ii) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and (iii) the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator. (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Owner Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent permitted by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

The Depositor and any other Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Certificate, agree to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Certificates for such tax purposes as partnership interests in the Trust. Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, covenants and agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Trust, or join in any institution against the Depositor or the Trust of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the Certificates, the Trust Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. Distributions on this Certificate will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by the Paying Agent by wire transfer or check mailed to the Certificateholder of record in the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any notation hereon. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if fully set forth on the face of this Certificate. Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not entitle the Holder A-3 hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

The signatures of any such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. (b) Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time Authorized Officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices on the date of such Notes.

Section 2.3 Temporary Notes. (a) Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes pursuant to Section 2.13, the Issuer may execute, and upon receipt of an Issuer Order the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes. (b) If temporary Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.3(a), the Issuer shall cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Note Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes. Section 2.4 Tax Treatment. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes shall be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes shall qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Trust Estate. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes as indebtedness of the Issuer for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes. Section 2.5 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Indenture Trustee initially shall be the registrar (the "Note Registrar") for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Note Registrar shall cause to be kept a register (the "Note Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of Notes. Upon any resignation of any Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note Registrar. 14 (b) If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as Note Registrar, (i) the Issuer shall give the Indenture Trustee prompt written notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the location, or any change in the location, of the Note Register, (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Executive Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the principal amounts and number of such Notes. (c) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, if the requirements of Section 8-401 or 8A-401, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder making such surrender, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in any authorized denomination, of a like aggregate principal amount. The Indenture Trustee may rely upon the Administrator with respect to the determination of whether the requirements of Section 8-401 or 8A-401, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met. (d) At the option of the Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, if the requirements of Section 8-401 or 8A-401, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder making such exchange, the Notes which such Noteholder is entitled to receive. The Indenture Trustee may rely upon the Administrator with respect to the determination of whether the requirements of Section 8-401 or 8A-401, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met. (e) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. (f) All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar. (g) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer may require payment by such Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.3 or 9.6 not involving any transfer. 15 (h) The Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Note Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption or Notes with respect to which the due date for any payment will occur within fifteen (15) days. SECTION 2.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. (a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 or 8A-405, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven (7) days of the Indenture Trustee's receipt of evidence to its satisfaction of such destruction, loss or theft shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1, instead of issuing a replacement Note of the same Class, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Redemption Date without surrender thereof. The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon the Administrator with respect to the determination of whether the requirements of Section 8-405 or 8A-405, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith. (b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with such issuance and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee) related thereto. (c) Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 16 (d) The provisions of this Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. SECTION 2.7 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may, subject to Section 2.6, treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered in the Note Register (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 2.8 Payments. (a) On each Distribution Date, upon receipt of written instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall apply the Available Funds for such Distribution Date to make the following payments and deposits in the following order of priority: (i) to the Servicer, the Total Servicing Fee for the preceding Collection Period and any Unreimbursed Servicer Advances for the preceding Collection Period; (ii) to the Note Payment Account, for payment of interest on each Class of the Class A Notes, the Total Note Interest for each Class of the Class A Notes for such Distribution Date; (iii) to the Note Payment Account, for payment of principal of the Notes in the priority set forth in Section 2.8(b), the Priority Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date; (iv) to the Note Payment Account, for payment of interest on the Class B Notes, the Total Note Interest for the Class B Notes for such Distribution Date; (v) to the Note Payment Account, for payment of interest on the Class C Notes, the Total Note Interest for the Class C Notes for such Distribution Date; (vi) to the Reserve Account, the Reserve Account Deficiency, if any, for such Distribution Date; (vii) to the Note Payment Account, for payment of principal of the Notes in the priority set forth in Section 2.8(b), the Regular Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date; (viii) if a Successor Servicer has been appointed pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to such Successor Servicer, any Transition Costs due in connection with such transfer of servicing and not paid pursuant to Section 8.1(a) of 17 the Sale and Servicing Agreement plus the Additional Servicing Fee, if any, for the preceding Collection Period; and (ix) unless the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, to the Certificate Payment Account, for payment to the Certificateholders, or, if the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, to the Note Payment Account, for payment to the Noteholders, any remaining Available Funds (the "Excess Collections"). If the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account (including any portion of the Reserve Account Draw Amount) on any Distribution Date is less than the amount described in clause (ii) above for such Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay the available amount to the Holders of each Class of Class A Notes pro rata based on the Total Note Interest payable to such Class on such Distribution Date. (b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Distribution Date in an aggregate amount (unless the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default) for all Classes of Notes equal to the sum of the Priority Principal Distributable Amount and the Regular Principal Distributable Amount, in each case for such Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date (unless the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default), upon receipt of instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall apply or cause to be applied the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account on such Distribution Date in respect of the Priority Principal Distributable Amount and the Regular Principal Distributable Amount, in each case for such Distribution Date, to make the following payments in the following order of priority: (i) to the Class A-1 Noteholders until the principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes has been paid in full; (ii) following payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, sequentially to the remaining Class A Noteholders, the Class A Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date (applying such Class A Principal Distributable Amount first to the Class A-2 Noteholders until the principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes has been paid in full, then to the Class A-3 Noteholders until the principal amount of the Class A-3 Notes has been paid in full and then to the Class A-4 Noteholders until the principal amount of the Class A-4 Notes has been paid in full) until the principal amount of the Class A Notes has been paid in full; (iii) following payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, to the Class B Noteholders, the Class B Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class B Notes has been paid in full; and (iv) following payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, to the Class C Noteholders, the Class C Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class C Notes has been paid in full. 18 (c) The unpaid principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-1 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-2 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class A-3 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-3 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class A-4 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-4 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class B Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class B Final Distribution Date and the principal amount of the Class C Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class C Final Distribution Date.

Interest on the Class A-1 Notes shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year. Interest on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Subject to Section 3.1, any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for on the applicable Distribution Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the related Record Date by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person's address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date; provided, however, that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.13, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee, and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Distribution Date or on the related Class Final Distribution Date (and except for the Redemption Price for any Note called for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or (b)), which shall be payable as provided below. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.3. The Indenture Trustee shall pay all Total Note Interest for any Distribution Date to the Holders of the Notes on the related Record Date even if a portion of such Total Note Interest relates to an earlier Distribution Date. (e) All principal and interest payments on each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Holders of such Class. The Indenture Trustee shall, before the Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects to pay the final installment of principal of and interest on any Note, notify the Holder of such Note as of the related Record Date of such final installment. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile and shall specify that such final installment shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment.

All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or (b) shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it, provided that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 2.10 Release of Collateral. Subject to Section 11.1 and the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Request (which shall include delivery instructions and other relevant information) accompanied by an Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.

SECTION 2.11 Book-Entry Notes. The Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Book-Entry Notes shall be registered initially on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner thereof shall receive a definitive Note representing such Note Owner's interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.13. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the "Definitive Notes") have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13: (i) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall be in full force and effect; (ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Note Owners; (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.11 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section shall control; (iv) the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement; unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.13, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon written instructions or directions of Holders of Notes (or Holders of Notes of any Class thereof, including the Controlling Class) evidencing a specified percentage of the principal amount of the Notes or any Class of Notes Outstanding, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes or such Class of Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 2.12 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to such Note Owners. 21 SECTION 2.13 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Administrator or the Servicer advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and the Indenture Trustee or the Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Administrator, at its option, advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Event of Servicing Termination, Note Owners of the Book-Entry Notes representing beneficial interests aggregating not less than 51% of the principal amount of such Notes advise the Indenture Trustee and the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of such Note Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Note Owners and the Indenture Trustee in writing of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver the Definitive Notes to the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders. SECTION 2.14 Authenticating Agents. The Indenture Trustee may appoint one or more Persons (each, an "Authenticating Agent") with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.2, 2.3, 2.5 and 2.6, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by those Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes "by the Indenture Trustee". Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation. Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Owner Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Indenture Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of any such appointment to the Owner Trustee. 22 The Administrator agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services.

Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture. SECTION 3.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Note Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Note Registrar in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Note Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If, at any time, the Issuer and the Note Registrar shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such surrenders, notices and demands. SECTION 3.3 Money for Payments To Be Held in Trust. (a) As provided in Section 8.2, all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to the Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Trust Accounts shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by another Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Trust Accounts shall be paid over to the Issuer, except as provided in this Section 3.3. (b) On or before each Distribution Date and Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Note Payment Account an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act. (c) The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 3.3, that such Paying Agent shall: (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided; 23 (ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes; (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; (iv) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for payment of the Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and (v) comply with all requirements of the Code and any state or local tax law with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on the Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith. (d) The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by such Paying Agent, and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. (e) Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request, and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1 or whose right to or interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent at the last address of record for each such Holder). SECTION 3.4 Existence. The Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it 24 becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other State or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate.

SECTION 3.6 Opinions as to Trust Estate. (a) On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. (b) On or before March 31 of each year (commencing with the year 20[__]), the Issuer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and with respect to the authorization and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements as is necessary to maintain the lien and security interest created by this Indenture and reciting the details of such action or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to maintain such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and the authorization and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements that shall, in the opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest of this Indenture until March 31 in the following year. 25 SECTION 3.7 Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables. (a) The Issuer shall not take any action and shall use its best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as expressly provided in this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents. (b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer and the Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture. (c) The Issuer shall punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including filing or causing to be filed all financing statements and continuation statements required to be filed under the Relevant UCC by the terms of this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein. (d) If the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of an Event of Servicing Termination, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies in writing of such event and shall specify in such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking in respect of such default. If an Event of Servicing Termination shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure. (e) As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer may (subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee to direct such appointment pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement) appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer"), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, without further action, shall be the successor to the Servicer in all respects in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee may resign as the Servicer by giving written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and in such event shall be released from such duties and obligations, such release not to be effective until the date a new servicer enters into a servicing agreement with the Issuer as provided below. Upon delivery of any such notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall obtain a new servicer as the Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Any Successor Servicer (other than the Indenture Trustee) shall (i) be an established financial institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle installment sale contracts and (ii) enter into a servicing agreement 26 with the Issuer having substantially the same provisions as the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement applicable to the Servicer. If, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the notice referred to above, the Issuer shall not have obtained such a new servicer, the Indenture Trustee may appoint, or may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Successor Servicer. In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor as it and such successor shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and, in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such successor for the servicing of the Receivables (such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee). If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Servicer and the servicing of the Receivables. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become successor to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint as Servicer any one of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, in its capacity as the Servicer, shall be fully liable for the actions and omissions of such Affiliate in such capacity as Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. (f) Upon any termination of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies in writing of such termination. Upon any appointment of a Successor Servicer by the Issuer, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies in writing of such appointment, specifying in such notice the name and address of such Successor Servicer. (g) The Issuer shall not waive timely performance by the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer of their respective obligations under the Transaction Documents if such waiver would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders. SECTION 3.8 Negative Covenants. If any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not: (i) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the properties or assets of the Issuer, including those included in the Trust Estate, unless directed to do so in writing by the Indenture Trustee; (ii) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim against any present 27 or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of taxes levied or assessed upon the Issuer; (iii) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part; (iv) (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture except as may be expressly permitted hereby, (B) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof (other than tax liens, mechanics' liens and other liens that arise by operation of law, in each case on any of the Financed Vehicles and arising solely as a result of an action or omission of the related Obligor) or (C) permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid and perfected first priority (other than with respect to any such tax, mechanics' or other lien) security interest in the Trust Estate; (v) engage in any activities other than financing, acquiring, owning, pledging and managing the Receivables as contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and this Indenture and activities incidental to such activities; or (vi) incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness other than the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or indebtedness otherwise permitted by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or this Indenture.

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.4, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 36 (d) If there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or if a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or if there shall be pending any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents and attorneys, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings; (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings; (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to pay all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of the Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents and attorneys, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7. (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any 37 Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person. (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes. (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings. SECTION 5.4 Remedies. (a) If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, or at the written direction of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class shall, take one or more of the following actions as so directed (subject to Section 5.5): (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon the Notes monies adjudged due; (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate; (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the Relevant UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and (iv) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate at the direction of the Holders following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(i) or (ii), unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the Note Balance consent thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation will be sufficient to pay in full the Note Balance and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Trust Estate will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes 38 had not been declared immediately due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and (C) above, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. (b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Section 5.4, it shall pay out such money or property in the following order of priority: (i) to the Indenture Trustee, all amounts due to the Indenture Trustee as compensation pursuant to Section 6.7; (ii) any remaining money or property shall constitute Available Collections and shall be applied as such on the immediately following Distribution Date or other date fixed pursuant to Section 5.4(c). (c) The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.4. At least five (5) days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid. SECTION 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Receivables. If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Trust Estate and apply proceeds as if there had been no declaration of acceleration; provided, however, that the Available Funds shall be applied in accordance with such declaration of acceleration in the manner specified in Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. SECTION 5.6 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: (i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default; (ii) the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder; 39 (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request; (iv) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class. It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of Notes or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided. In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes, each evidencing less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture. SECTION 5.7 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. SECTION 5.8 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. SECTION 5.9 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 40 SECTION 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders, as the case may be. SECTION 5.11 Control by Noteholders of the Controlling Class. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that: (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; (ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.4, any written direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 100% of the Note Balance; (iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5 have been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Trust Estate pursuant to such section, then any written direction to the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes evidencing less than 100% of the Note Balance to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect; and (iv) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section 5.11, subject to Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it reasonably believes might involve it in costs, expenses and liabilities for which it will not be adequately indemnified or might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action. SECTION 5.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.2, the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class, may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the consent of all the Noteholders. Upon any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. Upon any such waiver, such Default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, 41 for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 5.13 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (ii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder or group of Noteholders, in each case holding Notes evidencing in the aggregate more than 10% of the Note Balance (or, in the case of any suit which is instituted by the Controlling Class, more than 10% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class) or (iii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). SECTION 5.14 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. SECTION 5.15 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b). SECTION 5.16 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations. (a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so, and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Depositor and the Servicer of their respective obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or by the Seller of its obligations under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing 42 Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Depositor or the Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Depositor and the Servicer of their respective obligations thereunder. (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Depositor or the Servicer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, of its obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement, as the case may be, and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended. (c) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer agrees to take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller of its obligations to the Depositor under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Depositor thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller of its obligations under the Receivables Purchase Agreement. (d) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Depositor against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller of its obligations to the Depositor thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and any right of the Depositor to take such action shall be suspended. 43 ARTICLE VI THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE SECTION 6.1 Duties of Indenture Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs. (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and, if required by the terms of this Indenture, conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.1; (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 5.11. (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement. (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder if the Indenture 44 Trustee shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured or provided to it. (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and the TIA. (h) The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. SECTION 6.2 Rights of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. (b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may request and shall be entitled to receive an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in such reliance. (c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with due care by it hereunder. (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that such action or omission by the Indenture Trustee does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. (e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. (f) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. (g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, 45 notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Indenture Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Indenture Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney. SECTION 6.3 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent hereunder may do the same with like rights. SECTION 6.4 Indenture Trustee's Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee (i) shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation as to, the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes and (ii) shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes or responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee's certificate of authentication. SECTION 6.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of such Default within ninety (90) days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Note), the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders. SECTION 6.6 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Holders. The Indenture Trustee shall deliver, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, to each Person who at any time during such calendar year was a Noteholder, such information furnished to the Indenture Trustee as may be required to enable such Person to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. SECTION 6.7 Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all expenses, advances and disbursements reasonably incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services; provided, however, that the Administrator need not reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee's willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, and hold it and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including 46 reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Administrator need not indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, or hold it harmless against, any such loss, liability or expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee's willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Any failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Administrator shall not, however, relieve the Administrator of its obligations hereunder. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall defend any such claim. The Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel in connection with the defense of any such claim, and the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. (b) The payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs fees or expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.1(v) or (vi) with respect to the Issuer, such fees and expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. SECTION 6.8 Replacement of Indenture Trustee. (a) No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee, shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer, the Depositor and the Noteholders. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class, may remove the Indenture Trustee without cause by notifying the Indenture Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, the Depositor and the Rating Agencies) of such removal and, following such removal, may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if: (i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11; (ii) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged to be bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or (iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. (b) Any successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Depositor. Upon delivery of such written acceptance, the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a 47 notice of its succession to the Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee. (c) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent 53 investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action. ARTICLE IX SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES SECTION 9.1 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may, without the consent of the Holders of any Notes, with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, at any time and from time to time, enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes: (i) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property; (ii) to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another Person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes contained; (iii) to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer; (iv) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Indenture Trustee; (v) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or in any offering document used in connection with the initial offer and sale of the Notes or to add any provisions to or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of this Indenture; (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or (vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA; provided, however, that (i) no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder, and (ii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an 54 association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or any Noteholder. A supplemental indenture shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder if (i) the Person requesting such supplemental indenture obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to that effect or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained. SECTION 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may, with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class and with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, at any time and from time to time, enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that (i) no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder and (ii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or any Noteholder; and, provided further, that no such supplemental indenture may, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected by such supplemental indenture: (i) change any Class Final Distribution Date or the date of payment of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the Note Rate applicable thereto or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable; (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of available funds, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); (iii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture or for any waiver of compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or of defaults hereunder and their consequences as provided in this Indenture; (iv) modify or alter (A) the provisions of the second proviso to the definition of the term "Outstanding" or (B) the definition of the term "Note Balance" or the definition of the term "Controlling Class"; 55 (v) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required to direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.4 if the proceeds of such sale would be insufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes; (vi) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture amending the provisions of this Indenture which specify the applicable percentage of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class the consent of which is required for such supplemental indenture or the amendment of any other Transaction Document; (vii) affect the calculation of the amount of interest on or principal of the Notes payable on any Distribution Date, including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation; (viii) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the rights of the Holders of the Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes; or (ix) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this Indenture on any such collateral at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture. It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. SECTION 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent in this Indenture to the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture have been satisfied. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. SECTION 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected 56 thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. SECTION 9.5 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. SECTION 9.6 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Any Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes. ARTICLE X REDEMPTION OF NOTES SECTION 10.1 Redemption. (a) The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at the direction of the Servicer, pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, on any Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the assets of the Issuer pursuant to such Section 9.1(a), and the amount paid by the Servicer shall be treated as collections in respect of the Receivables and applied to pay all amounts due to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes plus all accrued and unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) thereon, the Certificate Balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) thereon. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 10.1(a), the Issuer shall furnish or cause the Servicer to furnish notice of such redemption to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption Date and the Issuer shall deposit the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed in the Note Payment Account by 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, whereupon all such Notes shall be due and payable on the Redemption Date. (b) In the event that the assets of the Issuer are purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, all amounts on deposit in the Note Payment Account shall be paid to the Noteholders up to the unpaid principal amount of the Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. If such amounts are to be paid to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 10.1(b), the Issuer shall, to the extent practicable, furnish or cause the Servicer to furnish notice of such event to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating 57 Agencies not later than twenty (20) days prior to the Redemption Date, whereupon all such amounts shall be payable on the Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption of the Notes under Section 10.1(a) shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile mailed or transmitted promptly following receipt of notice from the Issuer or the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.1(a), but not later than ten (10) days prior to the applicable Redemption Date, to each Holder of the Notes as of the close of business on the second Record Date preceding the applicable Redemption Date, at such Holder's address or facsimile number appearing in the Note Register.

Notice of redemption of the Notes shall be given by the Indenture Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. Any failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not, however, impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note. SECTION 10.3 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. The Notes to be redeemed shall, following notice of redemption as required by Section 10.2 (in the case of redemption pursuant to Section 10.1(a)), become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price and (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest shall accrue on the Redemption Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(b) Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such officer's certificate or opinion is based are erroneous.

(c) Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. (d) Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate 60 or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI. SECTION 11.3 Acts of Noteholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by the Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.3.

SECTION 11.4 Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee, Issuer and Rating Agencies. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, instruction, consent, waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, instruction, consent, waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with: (i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; (ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: CarMax Auto Owner Trust 20[__]-[__], in care of [____________________], Attention: [____________________], with a copy to the Administrator at 4900 Cox Road, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, Attention: Treasury Department, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or the Administrator; or 61 (iii) the Depositor by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or any Noteholder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Depositor addressed to CarMax Auto Funding LLC, 4900 Cox Road, Suite 200, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, Attention: Treasurer.

The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 11.5 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. (a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given. (b) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver. (c) If, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. (d) Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of Default. SECTION 11.6 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions.Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods 62 provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

SECTION 11.11 Benefits of Indenture.

SECTION 11.12 Legal Holiday. If the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date. SECTION 11.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF WHICH MAY REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW). 63 SECTION 11.14 Counterparts.

Any such consent or waiver by the Holders of 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class or the Holder of this Class C Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Class C Note and of any Class C Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Class C Note. The term "Issuer", as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

(a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 or 8A-405, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven (7) days of the Indenture Trustee's receipt of evidence to its satisfaction of such destruction, loss or theft shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1, instead of issuing a replacement Note of the same Class, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Redemption Date without surrender thereof. The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon the Administrator with respect to the determination of whether the requirements of Section 8-405 or 8A-405, as applicable, of the Relevant UCC are met. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a "protected purchaser" (as defined in the Relevant UCC), and 15 shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith. (b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with such issuance and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee) related thereto. (c) Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. (d) The provisions of this Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. SECTION 2.7 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may, subject to Section 2.6, treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered in the Note Register (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 2.8 Payments.

(b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Distribution Date in an aggregate amount (unless the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default) for all Classes of Notes equal to the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date (unless the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default), upon receipt of instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall apply or cause to be applied the amount on deposit in the Note 17 Payment Account on such Distribution Date to make the following payments in the following order of priority: (i) to the Holders of each Class of Notes, the portion of the Total Note Interest payable to such Class for such Distribution Date; (ii) to the Class A-1 Noteholders, the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes has been paid in full; (iii) following payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, to the Class A-2 Noteholders, the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes has been paid in full; (iv) following payment in full of the Class A-2 Notes, to the Class A-3 Noteholders, the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class A-3 Notes has been paid in full; and (v) following payment in full of the Class A-3 Notes, to the Class A-4 Noteholders, the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date until the principal amount of the Class A-4 Notes has been paid in full. If the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account (including any portion of the Reserve Account Draw Amount or the Policy Claim Amount included in such amount) on any Distribution Date is less than the amount described in clause (i) above for such Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay the available amount to the Holders of each Class of Notes pro rata based on the Total Note Interest payable to such Class on such Distribution Date. If the amount available to pay principal of the Notes on any Distribution Date is less than the Monthly Note Principal for such Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay the available amount to the Holders of each Class of Notes pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of such Class as of such Distribution Date. (c) The unpaid principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-1 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-2 Final Distribution Date, the principal amount of the Class A-3 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-3 Final Distribution Date and the principal amount of the Class A-4 Notes, to the extent not previously paid, shall be due and payable on the Class A-4 Final Distribution Date.

Interest on the Class A-1 Notes shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year. Interest on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Subject to Section 3.1, any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for on the applicable Distribution Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is 18 registered on the related Record Date by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person's address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date; provided, however, that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.13, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee, and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Distribution Date or on the related Class Final Distribution Date (and except for the Redemption Price for any Note called for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or (b)), which shall be payable as provided below. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.3. The Indenture Trustee shall pay all Total Note Interest for any Distribution Date to the Holders of the Notes on the related Record Date even if a portion of such Total Note Interest relates to an earlier Distribution Date. (e) All principal and interest payments on each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Holders of such Class. The Indenture Trustee shall, before the Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects to pay the final installment of principal of and interest on any Note, notify the Holder of such Note as of the related Record Date of such final installment. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile and shall specify that such final installment shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. Notices in connection with redemption of Notes shall be mailed to Noteholders as provided in Section 10.2. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable, to the extent not previously paid, on the date on which the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default. On each Distribution Date following acceleration of the Notes, upon receipt of instructions from the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall apply or cause to be applied the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account on such Distribution Date to make the following payments in the following order of priority: (i) to the Holders of each Class of Notes, the portion of the Total Note Interest payable to such Class for such Distribution Date; and (ii) to the Holders of each Class of Notes, the amount remaining on deposit in the Note Payment Account on such Distribution Date pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of such Class as of such Distribution Date. If the amount on deposit in the Note Payment Account (including any portion of the Reserve Account Draw Amount or the Policy Claim Amount included in such amount) on any Distribution Date following acceleration of the Notes is less than the amount described in clause (i) above for such Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall pay the available amount to the Holders of each Class of Notes pro rata based on the Total Note Interest payable to such Class on such Distribution Date. (g) The Indenture Trustee shall transfer amounts from the Reserve Account, deposit amounts transferred from the Reserve Account, submit claims under the Policy and 19 deposit amounts drawn under the Policy, in each case at the written direction of the Servicer and on behalf of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement. SECTION 2.9 Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or (b) shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it, provided that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 2.10 Release of Collateral. Subject to Section 11.1 and the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Request (which shall include delivery instructions and other relevant information) accompanied by an Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates. If the Commission shall issue an exemptive order under TIA Section 304(d) modifying the Indenture Trustee's obligations under TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1), the Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture in accordance with the conditions and procedures set forth in such exemptive order. SECTION 2.11 Book-Entry Notes. The Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Book-Entry Notes shall be registered initially on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner thereof shall receive a definitive Note representing such Note Owner's interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.13. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the "Definitive Notes") have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13: (i) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall be in full force and effect; (ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Note Owners; 20 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.11 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section shall control; (iv) the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement; unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.13, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon written instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the principal amount of the Notes or any Class of Notes Outstanding, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes or such Class of Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 2.12 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to such Note Owners. SECTION 2.13 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Administrator or the Servicer advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and the Indenture Trustee or the Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Administrator, at its option, advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Event of Servicing Termination, Note Owners of the Book-Entry Notes representing beneficial interests aggregating not less than 51% of the principal amount of such Notes advise the Indenture Trustee and the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of such Note Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Note Owners and the Indenture Trustee in writing of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver the Definitive Notes to the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders. 21 SECTION 2.14 Authenticating Agents. The Indenture Trustee may appoint one or more Persons (each, an "Authenticating Agent") with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.2, 2.3, 2.5 and 2.6, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by those Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes "by the Indenture Trustee". Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation. Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Owner Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Indenture Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of any such appointment to the Owner Trustee. The Administrator agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The provisions of Sections 2.9 and 6.4 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent. ARTICLE III COVENANTS SECTION 3.1 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer shall duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture. SECTION 3.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Note Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Note Registrar in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Note Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If, at any time, the Issuer and the Note Registrar shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such surrenders, notices and demands. 22 SECTION 3.3 Money for Payments To Be Held in Trust. (a) As provided in Section 8.2, all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to the Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Trust Accounts shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by another Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Trust Accounts shall be paid over to the Issuer, except as provided in this Section 3.3. (b) On or before each Distribution Date and Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Note Payment Account an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act. (c) The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 3.3, that such Paying Agent shall: (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided; (ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes; (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; (iv) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for payment of the Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and (v) comply with all requirements of the Code and any state or local tax law with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on the Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith. (d) The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by such Paying Agent, and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 23 (e) Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request, and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption in whole pursuant to Section 10.1 or whose right to or interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent at the last address of record for each such Holder). SECTION 3.4 Existence. The Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other State or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate. SECTION 3.5 Protection of Trust Estate. The Issuer shall from time to time authorize, execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action, necessary or advisable to: (i) maintain or preserve the lien and security interest (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof; (ii) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture; (iii) enforce any of the Collateral; or (iv) preserve and defend title to the Trust Estate and the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in the Trust Estate against the claims of all Persons. 24 The Issuer hereby authorizes the Indenture Trustee to file any financing statement or continuation statement required pursuant to this Section 3.5 and designates the Indenture Trustee as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any other instrument required to be executed pursuant to this Section 3.5. SECTION 3.6 Opinions as to Trust Estate. (a) On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. (b) On or before March 31 of each year (commencing with the year 20[__]), the Issuer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and with respect to the authorization and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements as is necessary to maintain the lien and security interest created by this Indenture and reciting the details of such action or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to maintain such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and any other requisite documents and the authorization and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements that shall, in the opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest of this Indenture until March 31 in the following year. SECTION 3.7 Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables. (a) The Issuer shall not take any action and shall use its best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as expressly provided in this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents. (b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer and the Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture. (c) The Issuer shall punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including filing or causing to be filed all financing statements and continuation statements required to be filed under the Relevant UCC by the terms of this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein. (d) If the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of an Event of Servicing Termination, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the 25 Insurer and the Rating Agencies in writing of such event and shall specify in such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking in respect of such default. If an Event of Servicing Termination shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure. (e) As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer may (subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee to direct such appointment pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement) appoint a successor servicer acceptable to the Insurer (the "Successor Servicer"), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, without further action, shall be the successor to the Servicer in all respects in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee may resign as the Servicer by giving written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and in such event shall be released from such duties and obligations, such release not to be effective until the date a new servicer enters into a servicing agreement with the Issuer as provided below. Upon delivery of any such notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall obtain a new servicer as the Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Any Successor Servicer (other than the Indenture Trustee) shall (i) be an established financial institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of motor vehicle installment sale contracts and (ii) enter into a servicing agreement with the Issuer having substantially the same provisions as the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement applicable to the Servicer. If, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the notice referred to above, the Issuer shall not have obtained such a new servicer, the Indenture Trustee may appoint, or may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Successor Servicer. In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor as it and such successor shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and, in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such successor for the servicing of the Receivables (such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer). If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Servicer and the servicing of the Receivables. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become successor to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint as Servicer any one of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, in its capacity as the Servicer, shall be fully liable for the actions and omissions of such Affiliate in such capacity as Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. 26 (f) Upon any termination of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies in writing of such termination. Upon any appointment of a Successor Servicer by the Issuer, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies in writing of such appointment, specifying in such notice the name and address of such Successor Servicer. (g) The Issuer shall not waive timely performance by the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer of their respective obligations under the Transaction Documents without the prior written consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or if such waiver would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Insurer. SECTION 3.8 Negative Covenants. If any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not: (i) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the properties or assets of the Issuer, including those included in the Trust Estate, unless directed to do so in writing by the Indenture Trustee with the prior written consent of the Insurer; (ii) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim against any present or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of taxes levied or assessed upon the Issuer; (iii) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part; (iv) (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture except as may be expressly permitted hereby, (B) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof (other than tax liens, mechanics' liens and other liens that arise by operation of law, in each case on any of the Financed Vehicles and arising solely as a result of an action or omission of the related Obligor) or (C) permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid and perfected first priority (other than with respect to any such tax, mechanics' or other lien) security interest in the Trust Estate; (v) engage in any activities other than financing, acquiring, owning, pledging and managing the Receivables as contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and this Indenture and activities incidental to such activities; or 27 (vi) incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness other than the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or indebtedness otherwise permitted by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or this Indenture.

The Indenture Trustee shall have no discretion with respect to the acceleration of the Notes under the foregoing circumstances. In the event of any such acceleration of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall continue to submit claims under the Policy with respect to the Notes and the Certificates. (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance may, upon prior written notice to each Rating Agency, declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable by written notice to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by Noteholders), the Depositor and the Servicer, and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

(d) If there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or if a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or if there shall be pending any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as 37 therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents and attorneys, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings; (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings; (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to pay all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of the Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents and attorneys, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7. (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person. (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee 38 and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes. (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings. SECTION 5.4 Remedies. (a) If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or at the written direction of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance (if an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), take one or more of the following actions as so directed (subject to Section 5.5): (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon the Notes monies adjudged due; (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate; (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the Relevant UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and (iv) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate at the direction of the Insurer following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(v), (vi) or (vii), unless the proceeds of such sale or liquidation will be sufficient to pay in full the Note Balance and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes; and, provided further, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate at the direction of the Holders following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(i) or (ii), unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the Note Balance consent thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation will be sufficient to pay in full the Note Balance and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes and all amounts due to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Trust Estate will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared immediately due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance. In determining such sufficiency or 39 insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and (C) above, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. (b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Section 5.4, it shall pay out such money or property in the following order of priority: (i) to the Indenture Trustee, all amounts due to the Indenture Trustee as compensation pursuant to Section 6.7; (ii) to the Servicer, all amounts due to the Servicer as compensation pursuant to Section 3.8 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; (iii) to the Noteholders, all accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes; (iv) to the Noteholders, the Note Balance; (v) to the Certificateholders, all accrued but unpaid interest on the Certificates; (vi) to the Certificateholders, the outstanding principal balance of the Certificates; (vii) to the Insurer, all overdue Insurance Premiums; (viii) to the Insurer, the aggregate amount of any unreimbursed payments under the Policy, including any amount deposited by the Insurer pursuant to Section 5.2(d) or (e), to the extent payable to the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement plus accrued interest on any unreimbursed payments under the Policy, including any amount deposited by the Insurer pursuant to Section 5.2(d) or (e), at the rate provided in the Insurance Agreement plus any other amounts due the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement plus any unreimbursed Insurer Defense Costs; (ix) if a Successor Servicer has been appointed pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to such Successor Servicer, any unpaid Transition Costs due in connection with such transfer of servicing plus any Additional Servicing Fee due to such Successor Servicer; and (x) to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest, any remaining money or property. (c) The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.4. At least five (5) days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid. 40 SECTION 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Receivables. If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Trust Estate and apply proceeds as if there had been no declaration of acceleration; provided, however, that the Available Funds shall be applied in accordance with such declaration of acceleration in the manner specified in Section 4.6(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. SECTION 5.6 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: (i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default; (ii) the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request; (iv) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance; and (vi) an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing. It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of Notes or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided. In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes, each evidencing less than 51% of the Note Balance, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture. 41 SECTION 5.7 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. SECTION 5.8 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. SECTION 5.9 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. SECTION 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or the Noteholders, as the case may be. SECTION 5.11 Control by Noteholders. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that: (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; (ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.4, any written direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 100% of the Note Balance; 42 (iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5 have been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Trust Estate pursuant to such section, then any written direction to the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes evidencing less than 100% of the Note Balance to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect; and (iv) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section 5.11, subject to Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it reasonably believes might involve it in costs, expenses and liabilities for which it will not be adequately indemnified or might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action. SECTION 5.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.2, the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, with the consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the consent of all the Noteholders. Upon any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. Upon any such waiver, such Default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 5.13 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (ii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder or group of Noteholders, in each case holding Notes evidencing in the aggregate more than 10% of the Note Balance or (iii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 43 SECTION 5.14 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. SECTION 5.15 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b). SECTION 5.16 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations. (a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so, and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Depositor and the Servicer of their respective obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or by the Seller of its obligations under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Depositor or the Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Depositor and the Servicer of their respective obligations thereunder. (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Depositor or the Servicer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, of its obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement, as the case may be, and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended. (c) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer agrees to take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller of its 44 obligations to the Depositor under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Depositor thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller of its obligations under the Receivables Purchase Agreement. (d) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Note Balance shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Depositor against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller of its obligations to the Depositor thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and any right of the Depositor to take such action shall be suspended. ARTICLE VI THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE SECTION 6.1 Duties of Indenture Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs. (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and, if required by the terms of this Indenture, conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.1; 45 (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 5.11. (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer. (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement. (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder if the Indenture Trustee shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured or provided to it. (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and the TIA. (h) The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. SECTION 6.2 Rights of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. (b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may request and shall be entitled to receive an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in such reliance. (c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with due care by it hereunder. 46 (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that such action or omission by the Indenture Trustee does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. (e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. (f) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of the Insurer or any of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture, unless the Insurer or such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. (g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Indenture Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Indenture Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney. SECTION 6.3 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent hereunder may do the same with like rights. SECTION 6.4 Indenture Trustee's Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee (i) shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation as to, the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes and (ii) shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes or responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee's certificate of authentication. SECTION 6.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of such Default within ninety (90) days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Note), the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders. 47 Section 6.6 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Holders. The Indenture Trustee shall deliver, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, to each Person who at any time during such calendar year was a Noteholder, such information furnished to the Indenture Trustee as may be required to enable such Person to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. SECTION 6.7 Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all expenses, advances and disbursements reasonably incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services; provided, however, that the Administrator need not reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee's willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, and hold it and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Administrator need not indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, or hold it harmless against, any such loss, liability or expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee's willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Any failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Administrator shall not, however, relieve the Administrator of its obligations hereunder. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall defend any such claim. The Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel in connection with the defense of any such claim, and the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. (b) The payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs fees or expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.1(v) or (vi) with respect to the Issuer, such fees and expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. SECTION 6.8 Replacement of Indenture Trustee. (a) No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee, shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer, the Depositor, the Noteholders and the Insurer. The Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, with the consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), may remove the Indenture Trustee without cause by notifying 48 the Indenture Trustee (with a copy to the Issuer, the Depositor, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies) of such removal and, following such removal, may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if: (i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11; (ii) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged to be bankrupt or insolvent; (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or (iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Administrator, with the consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. (b) Any successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Depositor and the Insurer. Upon delivery of such written acceptance, the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee. (c) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. (d) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8, the Administrator's obligations under Section 6.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee. SECTION 6.9 Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger. (a) If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that such corporation or banking association must be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Rating Agencies with prior written notice of any such transaction. 49 (b) If at the time such successor or successors by consolidation, merger or conversion to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Notes so authenticated, and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which the Notes or this Indenture provide that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have. Section 6.10 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.

Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action. ARTICLE IX SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES SECTION 9.1 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may, without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with the consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), with prior written notice to the Insurer and the Rating Agencies, at any time and from time to time, enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes: (i) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property; (ii) to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another Person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes contained; (iii) to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer; (iv) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Indenture Trustee; 55 (v) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or in any offering document used in connection with the initial offer and sale of the Notes or the Certificates or to add any provisions to or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture which will not be inconsistent with other provisions of this Indenture; (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or (vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA; provided, however, that (i) no such supplemental indenture may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder, (ii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or outstanding Certificates or any Noteholder or Certificateholder and (iii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if such supplemental indenture would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer. A supplemental indenture shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder if (i) the Person requesting such supplemental indenture obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to that effect or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained. SECTION 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may, with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance and with the consent of the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), with prior notice to the Insurer and the Rating Agencies, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, at any time and from time to time, enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that (i) no such supplemental indenture consented to by the Insurer on behalf of the Noteholders pursuant to Section 11.19 may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder, (ii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or 56 otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or outstanding Certificates or any Noteholder or Certificateholder and (iii) no such supplemental indenture will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if such supplemental indenture would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer; and, provided further, that no such supplemental indenture may, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected by such supplemental indenture: (i) change any Class Final Distribution Date or the date of payment of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the Note Rate applicable thereto or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable; (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of available funds, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); (iii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture or for any waiver of compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or of defaults hereunder and their consequences as provided in this Indenture; (iv) modify or alter (A) the provisions of the second proviso to the definition of the term "Outstanding" or (B) the definition of the term "Note Balance"; (v) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required to direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.4 if the proceeds of such sale would be insufficient to pay in full the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes; (vi) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture amending the provisions of this Indenture which specify the applicable percentage of the Note Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required for such supplemental indenture or the amendment of any other Transaction Document; (vii) affect the calculation of the amount of interest on or principal of the Notes payable on any Distribution Date, including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation; (viii) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the rights of the Holders of the Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes; or 57 (ix) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this Indenture on any such collateral at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture. It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. SECTION 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent in this Indenture to the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture have been satisfied. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. SECTION 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. SECTION 9.5 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. SECTION 9.6 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Any Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may be 58 prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

(New York City time) on the Redemption Date, whereupon all such Notes shall be due and payable on the Redemption Date. (b) In the event that the assets of the Issuer are purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, all amounts on deposit in the Note Payment Account shall be paid to the Noteholders up to the unpaid principal amount of the Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

(a) In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. (b) Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such officer's certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, one or more officers of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator or the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator or the Issuer, unless such Authorized Officer or counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. (c) Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. (d) Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI. SECTION 11.3 Acts of Noteholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by the Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing, and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be 62 sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.3. (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient. (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register. (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. SECTION 11.4 Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee, Issuer and Rating Agencies. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, instruction, consent, waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, instruction, consent, waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with: (i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; (ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: CarMax Auto Owner Trust 20[__]-[__], in care of [____________________], Attention: [____________________], with a copy to the Administrator at 4900 Cox Road, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, Attention: Treasury Department, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or the Administrator; (iii) the Depositor by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or any Noteholder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Depositor addressed to CarMax Auto Funding LLC, 4900 Cox Road, Suite 200, Glen Allen, Virginia 23060, Attention: Treasurer; or (iv) the Insurer by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or any Noteholder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Insurer addressed to [____________________], [____________________], Attention: [____________________].

The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee. SECTION 11.5 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. (a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given. (b) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver. (c) If, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. (d) Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of Default. SECTION 11.6 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements. SECTION 11.7 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control. The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on any Person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein. 64 SECTION 11.8 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents. SECTION 11.10 Severability. If any provision of this Indenture or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Indenture and the Notes shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. SECTION 11.11 Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, the Insurer, the Noteholders, any other party secured hereunder and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Trust Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. SECTION 11.12 Legal Holiday. If the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date. SECTION 11.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF WHICH MAY REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW). SECTION 11.14 Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording office, such recording shall be effected by the Issuer at its expense and shall be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. 65 SECTION 11.16 Trust Obligation.

Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-1 Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Distribution Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Class A-1 Note and of any Class A-1 Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon.

Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, (ii) any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Class A-1 Note is issued with the intention that, for federal, state and local income, and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will A1-5 qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Trust Estate. Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, agrees to treat the Notes for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer. Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Class A-1 Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Class A-1 Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Class A-1 Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture also permits the Insurer (if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing) or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance, with the consent of the Insurer (if an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing), on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Insurer, the Holders of 51% of the Note Balance, or the Holder of this Class A-1 Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Class A-1 Note and of any Class A-1 Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Class A-1 Note. The term "Issuer", as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture. The Indenture permits the Issuer, under certain circumstances, to consolidate or merge with or into another Person, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of Notes under the Indenture. The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth. This Class A-1 Note and the Indenture shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws. A1-6 No reference herein to the Indenture, and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Class A-1 Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

(c) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable and the sale of the related Financed Vehicle complied, at the time such Receivable was originated and complies, as of the Closing Date, in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and local laws, and regulations thereunder, including usury laws, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's Regulations B and Z, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and any other consumer credit, equal opportunity and disclosure laws applicable to such Receivable and sale. (d) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the related Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in all material respects in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity. (e) No Government Obligor. No Receivable is due from the United States of America or any State or from any agency, department or instrumentality of the United States of America or any State. (f) Security Interest in Financed Vehicles. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables by the Seller to the Depositor, each Receivable was secured by a valid, binding and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Seller in the related Financed Vehicle, which security interest has been validly assigned by the Seller to the Depositor. The Servicer has received, or will receive within 180 days after the Closing Date, the original certificate of title for each Financed Vehicle (other than any Financed Vehicle that is subject to a certificate of title statute or motor vehicle registration law that does not require that the original certificate of title for such Financed Vehicle be delivered to the Seller). (g) Receivables in Force. No Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has any Financed Vehicle been released in whole or in part from the Lien granted by the related Receivable. 19 (h) No Waiver. No provision of any Receivable has been waived in such a manner that such Receivable fails to meet all of the representations and warranties made by the Depositor in this Section 2.3 with respect thereto. (i) No Defenses. No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the operation of any of the terms of any Receivable, or the exercise of any right thereunder, will not render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the Depositor has no knowledge of any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense being asserted or threatened with respect to any Receivable. (j) No Liens. The Depositor has no knowledge of any liens or claims that have been filed, including liens for work, labor or materials or for unpaid state or federal taxes, relating to any Financed Vehicle that are prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in such Financed Vehicle created by the related Receivable. (k) No Default. Except for payment defaults continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, the Depositor has no knowledge that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred or that any continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has arisen, and the Depositor has not waived any such event or condition. (l) Title. The Depositor has purchased the Receivables from the Seller. The Depositor intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a) constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Depositor to the Trust and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables not be part of the Depositor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any bankruptcy law. The Depositor has not sold, transferred, assigned or pledged any Receivable to any Person other than the Trust. The Depositor has not created, incurred or suffered to exist any Lien, encumbrance or security interest on any Receivable except for the Lien of the Indenture. (m) Security Interest Matters. This Agreement creates a valid and continuing "security interest" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Trust, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor. The Receivables constitute "tangible chattel paper" (as defined in the Relevant UCC). The Depositor owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person. The Depositor has caused or will cause prior to the Closing Date the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing offices in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law necessary to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted to the Trust under this Agreement. Other than the security interest granted to the Trust under this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Depositor that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Trust under this Agreement or 20 that has been terminated. The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Depositor. The security interest of the Seller in each Financed Vehicle has been validly assigned by the Depositor to the Trust. (n) Financing Statements. All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Depositor in favor of the Indenture Trustee (as assignee of the Trust) contain a statement substantially to the following effect: "A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee." (o) Valid Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or this Agreement or the pledge of such Receivable under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge. The Depositor has not entered into any agreement with any account debtor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the Receivables. (p) One Original.

Each Obligor has obtained or agreed to obtain physical damage insurance (which insurance shall not be force placed insurance) covering the related Financed Vehicle in accordance with the Seller's normal requirements. (bb) Fair Market Value. The Receivables Purchase Price and the value of the Certificates represent the fair market value of the Receivables. (cc) Custodial Agreements. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables by the Seller to the Depositor, the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller had possession of the Receivable Files and there were no, and there will not be any, custodial agreements in effect materially adversely affecting the right or ability of the Seller to make, or cause to be made, any delivery required under this Agreement.

If such breach or failure shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which the Depositor becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Seller, the Servicer or the Owner Trustee of, such breach or failure, and such breach or failure materially and adversely affects the interest of the Trust in a Receivable, the Depositor shall repurchase such Receivable from the Trust on the Distribution Date immediately following such Collection Period. In consideration of the repurchase of a Receivable hereunder, the Depositor shall remit the Purchase Amount of such Receivable in the manner specified in Section 4.5. The sole remedy of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders with respect to a breach or failure to be true of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.3 shall be to require the Depositor to repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section 2.4. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 2.4 or the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement. SECTION 2.5 Custody of Receivable Files. To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Trust, upon the execution and 22 delivery of this Agreement, hereby revocably appoints the Servicer as its agent, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act as custodian on behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee of the following documents or instruments, which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Trust pursuant to the Indenture with respect to each Receivable (collectively, a "Receivable File"): (i) the original, executed copy of such Receivable; (ii) the original credit application with respect to such Receivable fully executed by the related Obligor or a photocopy thereof or a record thereof on a computer file or disc or on microfiche; (iii) the original certificate of title for the related Financed Vehicle or such other documents that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, evidencing the security interest of the Seller in such Financed Vehicle; (iv) documents evidencing the commitment of the related Obligor to maintain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle; and (v) any and all other documents (including any computer file or disc or microfiche) that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, relating to such Receivable, the related Obligor or the related Financed Vehicle. On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust and the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate confirming that the Servicer has received, on behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, all the documents and instruments necessary for the Servicer to act as the agent of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee for the purposes set forth in this Section 2.5, including the documents referred to herein, and the Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to rely on such Officer's Certificate. In addition, within 180 days after the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust and the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying that the Servicer has received the original certificate of title for each Financed Vehicle except each Financed Vehicle securing an outstanding Receivable for which the Servicer has not received the original certificate of title as shall be identified in such Officer's Certificate (and indicating whether such Financed Vehicle is subject to a certificate of title statute or motor vehicle registration law that requires that the original certificate of title for such Financed Vehicle be delivered to the Seller).

As soon as practicable after receiving written instructions from the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall release any document in the Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee's agent or the Indenture Trustee's designee, as the case may be, at such place as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate. (d) Title to Receivables. The Servicer shall not at any time have or in any way attempt to assert any interest in any Receivable held by it as custodian hereunder or in the related Receivable File other than for collecting or enforcing such Receivable for the benefit of the Trust.

The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by an Authorized Officer.

SECTION 2.8 Indemnification of the Custodian. The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses (including legal fees if any) of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents as the result of any act or omission by the Servicer relating to 24 the maintenance and custody of the Receivable Files; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable hereunder to the Owner Trustee to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses result from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Owner Trustee and shall not be liable hereunder to the Indenture Trustee to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses result from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee.

ARTICLE III ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES AND OTHER TRUST PROPERTY SECTION 3.1 Duties of Servicer. The Servicer shall administer the Receivables with reasonable care. The Servicer's duties shall include, but not be limited to, the collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries by Obligors on the Receivables, or by federal, state or local governmental authorities, investigating delinquencies, reporting tax information to Obligors, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions and providing collection and repossession services in the event of Obligor default. In performing its duties as Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall use reasonable care and exercise that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others. Subject to the foregoing and to Section 3.2, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures in performing its duties hereunder as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any one or more of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables or the Financed Vehicles, all in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the 25 foregoing, the Servicer shall not, except pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount under any Receivable or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance (including accrued interest) of any Receivable from the related Obligor, except in connection with a de minimis deficiency which the Servicer would not attempt to collect in accordance with its customary procedures, in which event the Servicer shall indemnify the Trust for such deficiency. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned such Receivable to the Servicer, which assignment shall be solely for purposes of collection. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the Servicer's expense and written direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any of them. The Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any powers of attorney and other documents as shall be prepared by the Servicer and reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer, at its expense, shall obtain on behalf of the Trust or the Owner Trustee all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by the Trust or the Owner Trustee in connection with ownership of the Receivables and shall make all filings and pay all fees as may be required in connection therewith during the term hereof. SECTION 3.2 Collection and Allocation of Receivable Payments. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and otherwise act with respect to the Receivables and the other Trust Property in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the Trust with respect thereto and in accordance with the standard of care required by Section 3.1. The Servicer shall allocate collections on or in respect of the Receivables between principal and interest in accordance with the customary servicing practices and procedures it follows with respect to all comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others. The Servicer shall not increase or decrease the number or amount of any Scheduled Payment, the Amount Financed under any Receivable or the APR of any Receivable, or extend, rewrite or otherwise modify the payment terms of any Receivable; provided, however, that the Servicer may extend the due date for one or more payments due on any Receivable for credit-related reasons that would be acceptable to the Servicer with respect to comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others and in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures if the cumulative extensions with respect to any Receivable shall not cause the term of such Receivable to extend beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date. If the Servicer fails to comply with the provisions of the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall be required to purchase each Receivable affected thereby for the related Purchase Amount, in the manner specified in Section 3.7, as of the close of the Collection Period during which such failure occurs. The Servicer may, in its discretion (but only in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures), waive any late payment charge or any other fee that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. SECTION 3.3 Realization upon Receivables. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts on behalf of the Trust, in accordance with the standard of care required under 26 Section 3.1, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of each Financed Vehicle securing a Defaulted Receivable. In taking such action, the Servicer shall follow such customary practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and as are otherwise consistent with the standard of care required under Section 3.1. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it in the course of repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds, but only out of the cash proceeds of such Financed Vehicle and any deficiency obtained from the related Obligor. If a Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds received with respect to the related Receivable. SECTION 3.4 Physical Damage Insurance. The Servicer shall follow its customary practices and procedures to determine whether or not each Obligor shall have maintained physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle. SECTION 3.5 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles. The Servicer shall take such steps, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.1, as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Trust hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby agrees, to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee in the event the Servicer receives notice of, or otherwise has actual knowledge of, the fact that such security interest is not perfected as a result of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason.

Upon the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.6 or the termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.1, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the obligations and duties placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, as successor Servicer, shall not, in any event, make any Simple Interest Advances pursuant to Section 4.4 and shall have no obligations pursuant to Section 3.8 with respect to the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee's attorneys or the Indenture Trustee's attorneys, the fees and expenses of any custodian appointed by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, the fees and expenses of independent accountants or expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation (whether payable out of the Collection Account or 49 otherwise) as the Servicer would have been entitled to under this Agreement if no such resignation or termination had occurred, except that all collections on or in respect of the Receivables shall be deposited in the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt and shall not be retained by the Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an Eligible Servicer as the successor to the terminated Servicer under this Agreement. In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor Servicer out of collections on or in respect of the Receivables as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that such compensation shall not be greater than that payable to CarMax as Servicer hereunder without the prior consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class. The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Indenture Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties as successor Servicer under this Section 8.2 until a newly appointed Servicer shall have assumed the obligations and duties of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer hereunder. SECTION 8.3 Effect of Servicing Transfer. (a) After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the Indenture Trustee or successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the successor Servicer payments that are due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer. (b) Except as provided in Section 8.2, after a transfer of servicing hereunder, the outgoing Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the administration, servicing, custody or collection of the Receivables and the successor Servicer shall have all of such obligations, except that the outgoing Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly to the successor Servicer for its own account, promptly on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts or items held by the outgoing Servicer (properly endorsed where required for the successor Servicer to collect any such items) received as payments upon or otherwise in connection with the Receivables. (c) Any successor Servicer shall provide the Depositor with access to the Receivable Files and to the successor Servicer's records (whether written or automated) with respect to the Receivable Files. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the successor Servicer. Nothing in this Section 8.3 shall affect the obligation of the successor Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 8.3. (d) Any transfer of servicing hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related successor Servicer of any liability of the related outgoing Servicer arising out of any 50 breach by such outgoing Servicer of such outgoing Servicer's duties hereunder prior to such transfer of servicing. SECTION 8.4 Notification to Noteholders, Certificateholders and Rating Agencies. Upon any notice of an Event of Servicing Termination or upon any termination of, or any appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders and the Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders and to the Rating Agencies. SECTION 8.5 Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any Event of Servicing Termination and its consequences, except an event resulting from the failure to make any required deposits to or payments from the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account, or the Reserve Account in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of an Event of Servicing Termination, such event shall cease to exist, and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right arising therefrom, except to the extent expressly so waived. SECTION 8.6 Repayment of Advances. If the identity of the Servicer shall change, the predecessor Servicer shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for outstanding and unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances made pursuant to Section 4.4 by the predecessor Servicer. ARTICLE IX TERMINATION SECTION 9.1 Optional Purchase of All Receivables. (a) If, as of the last day of any Collection Period, the Pool Balance shall be less than or equal to 10% of the initial Pool Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase on the following Distribution Date the Owner Trust Estate, other than the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account or the Reserve Account. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Distribution Date on which such repurchase is to be effected and shall deposit into the Collection Account on the Business Day preceding such Distribution Date an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables, plus the appraised value of any other Trust Property, other than the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account or the Reserve Account, such value to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be permitted to exercise such option unless the amount to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to this Section 9.1(a) is at least equal to the sum of all amounts due to the Servicer under this Agreement plus the Note Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Notes plus all amounts due to the Servicer in any outstanding and unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances and any outstanding and unreimbursed Unreimbursed Servicer Advances. Upon such payment, the Servicer shall succeed to and own all interests in 51 and to the Trust. The aggregate Purchase Amount for such Distribution Date, plus, to the extent necessary, all amounts in the Reserve Account, shall be used to make payments in full to the Noteholders in the manner set forth in Article IV. (b) If, at the time the Servicer exercises its purchase option hereunder, the Servicer's long-term unsecured debt has a rating lower than investment grade by the Rating Agencies, the Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee on such Distribution Date (i) a letter from an Independent investment bank or an Independent public accountant to the effect that the price paid by the Servicer for the Receivables at the time of transfer pursuant to such purchase option represented a fair market price for such Receivables or (ii) a letter from the Rating Agencies to the effect that no such letter is required. (c) Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders shall succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and the Indenture Trustee shall continue to carry out its obligations hereunder with respect to the Certificateholders, including making distributions from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.6(d) and making withdrawals from the Reserve Account in accordance with Sections 4.6(b) and 4.7. 52 ARTICLE X MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS SECTION 10.1 Amendment. (a) This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, but without the consent of any of the Noteholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in this Agreement or any offering document used in connection with the initial offer and sale of the Notes or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder and (ii) no such amendment will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not cause the Trust to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or any Noteholder. (b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing at least 66 2/3% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that (x) no such amendment will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not cause the Trust to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or any Noteholder and (y) that no such amendment may: (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders, or change any Note Rate, without the consent of all Noteholders adversely affected by such amendment; (ii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class the consent of the Holders of which is required for any amendment to this Agreement without the consent of all the Noteholders adversely affected by such amendment; or (iii) modify or alter the definition of the term "Required Reserve Account Amount" without the consent of all the Noteholders adversely affected by such amendment. (c) An amendment to this Agreement shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder if (i) the Person requesting such amendment 53 obtains and delivers to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to that effect or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. (d) Prior to the execution of any amendment or consent pursuant to Section 10.1, the Servicer shall provide written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Noteholders pursuant to Section 10.1(b) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of the Noteholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may prescribe. (f) Prior to the execution of any amendment pursuant to Section 10.1, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon (i) an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and (ii) an Officer's Certificate of the Servicer that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement to the execution of such amendment have been complied with. The Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects such Owner Trustee's or Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

The Depositor or the Servicer, or both, shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above as soon as available following such filing.

(e) The Servicer shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer's master computer records (including any back-up archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly and unambiguously the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Trust and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Indication of the Trust's and the Indenture Trustee's interest in a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on the Servicer's computer systems when, and only when, such Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased by the Depositor or purchased by the Servicer. (f) If at any time the Depositor or the Servicer shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle retail installment sale contract to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Servicer shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, compact disks, records or print-outs (including any restored from back-up archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly and unambiguously that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Trust and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee (unless such Receivable has been paid in full or repurchased by the Depositor or purchased by the Servicer).

(e) No Government Obligor. No Receivable is due from the United States of America or any State or from any agency, department or instrumentality of the United States of America or any State.

Except for payment defaults continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, the Depositor has no knowledge that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred or that any continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has arisen, and the Depositor has not waived any such event or condition. 20 (l) Title. The Depositor has purchased the Receivables from the Seller. The Depositor intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a) constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Depositor to the Trust and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables not be part of the Depositor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any bankruptcy law.

The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Depositor.

(o) Valid Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or this Agreement or the pledge of such Receivable under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge.

ARTICLE III ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES AND OTHER TRUST PROPERTY SECTION 3.1 Duties of Servicer. The Servicer shall administer the Receivables with reasonable care. The Servicer's duties shall include, but not be limited to, the collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries by Obligors on the Receivables, or by federal, state or local governmental authorities, investigating delinquencies, reporting tax information to Obligors, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions and providing collection and repossession services in the event of Obligor default. In performing its duties as Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall use reasonable care and exercise that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others. Subject to the foregoing and to Section 3.2, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures in performing its duties hereunder as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any one or more of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables or the Financed Vehicles, all in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not, except pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount under any Receivable or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance (including accrued interest) of any Receivable from the related Obligor, except in connection with a de minimis deficiency which the Servicer would not attempt to collect in accordance with its customary procedures, in which event the Servicer shall indemnify the Trust for such deficiency. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned such Receivable to the Servicer, which assignment shall be solely for purposes of collection. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the Servicer's expense and written direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any of them. The Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any powers of attorney and other documents as shall be prepared by the Servicer and reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer, at its expense, shall obtain on behalf of the Trust or the Owner Trustee all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by the Trust or the Owner Trustee in connection with 26 ownership of the Receivables and shall make all filings and pay all fees as may be required in connection therewith during the term hereof. SECTION 3.2 Collection and Allocation of Receivable Payments. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and otherwise act with respect to the Receivables and the other Trust Property in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the Trust with respect thereto and in accordance with the standard of care required by Section 3.1. The Servicer shall allocate collections on or in respect of the Receivables between principal and interest in accordance with the customary servicing practices and procedures it follows with respect to all comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others. The Servicer shall not increase or decrease the number or amount of any Scheduled Payment, the Amount Financed under any Receivable or the APR of any Receivable, or extend, rewrite or otherwise modify the payment terms of any Receivable; provided, however, that the Servicer may extend the due date for one or more payments due on any Receivable for credit-related reasons that would be acceptable to the Servicer with respect to comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that it services for itself or others and in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures if the cumulative extensions with respect to any Receivable shall not cause the term of such Receivable to extend beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date. If the Servicer fails to comply with the provisions of the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall be required to purchase each Receivable affected thereby for the related Purchase Amount, in the manner specified in Section 3.7, as of the close of the Collection Period during which such failure occurs. The Servicer may, in its discretion (but only in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures), waive any late payment charge or any other fee that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. SECTION 3.3 Realization upon Receivables. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts on behalf of the Trust, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.1, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of each Financed Vehicle securing a Defaulted Receivable. In taking such action, the Servicer shall follow such customary practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and as are otherwise consistent with the standard of care required under Section 3.1. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it in the course of repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds, but only out of the cash proceeds of such Financed Vehicle and any deficiency obtained from the related Obligor. If a Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds received with respect to the related Receivable. SECTION 3.4 Physical Damage Insurance. The Servicer shall follow its customary practices and procedures to determine whether or not each Obligor shall have maintained physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle. 27 SECTION 3.5 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles. The Servicer shall take such steps, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.1, as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Trust hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby agrees, to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee in the event the Servicer receives notice of, or otherwise has actual knowledge of, the fact that such security interest is not perfected as a result of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason. The Servicer shall not release, in whole or in part, any security interest in a Financed Vehicle created by the related Receivable except as permitted herein or in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures. SECTION 3.6 Amendment of Receivable Terms. The Servicer shall not impair in any material respect the rights of the Depositor, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or the Insurer in the Receivables or, except as permitted under Section 3.2, otherwise amend or alter the terms of the Receivables if, as a result of such amendment or alteration, the interests of the Depositor, the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or the Insurer hereunder would be materially adversely affected. SECTION 3.7 Purchase by Servicer upon Breach. The Depositor, the Servicer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to this Agreement, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Section 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6. If such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which the Servicer becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Depositor, the Seller, the Owner Trustee or the Insurer of, such breach, and such breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the Trust in a Receivable, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable from the Trust on the Distribution Date following such Collection Period; provided, however, that, with respect to a breach of Section 3.2, the Servicer shall purchase the affected Receivable from the Trust at the end of the Collection Period in which such breach occurs. In consideration of the purchase of a Receivable hereunder, the Servicer shall remit the Purchase Amount of such Receivable in the manner specified in Section 4.5. The sole remedy of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of Section 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section 3.7. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 3.7. SECTION 3.8 Servicing Compensation. The Servicer shall receive the Monthly Servicing Fee for servicing the Receivables. The Monthly Servicing Fee for any Collection Period shall equal the product of one-twelfth (1/12) of the Servicing Rate and the Pool Balance as of the first day of such Collection Period (or, in the case of the initial Collection Period, as of the Cutoff Date). The Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, including the reasonable fees and expenses of their attorneys, and any custodian appointed by the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, the fees and expenses of 28 independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer and expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to the Certificateholders and the Noteholders), except expenses incurred in connection with realizing upon Receivables under Section 3.3.

The Servicer shall separately identify (by account number) in a written notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer the Receivables to be repurchased by the Depositor or to be purchased by the Servicer, as the case may be, on the Business Day preceding such Distribution Date, and, upon request of one of the foregoing parties, each Receivable which became a Defaulted Receivable during the related Collection Period.

A copy of such report may be obtained by any Certificateholder by a request in writing to the Owner Trustee, or by any Noteholder or Person certifying that it is a Note Owner by a request in writing to the Indenture Trustee, in either case addressed to the applicable Corporate Trust Office. In the event such firm requires the Indenture Trustee to agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree, it being understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee makes no independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.

(b) The Reserve Account Property shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations, be invested, as directed in writing by the Servicer, by the bank or trust company then maintaining the Reserve Account in Permitted Investments that mature not later than the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date following the Collection Period during which such investment is made. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity. All interest and other income (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall, at the written direction of the Servicer, be paid to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest, on any Distribution Date to the extent that funds on deposit therein, as certified by the Servicer, exceed the Required Reserve Account Amount. If the Reserve Account is no longer to be maintained at the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall, with the Indenture Trustee's assistance as necessary, promptly (and in any case within ten (10) calendar days or such longer period not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days as to which each Rating Agency may consent) cause the Reserve Account to be moved to an Eligible Institution. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Insurer in writing of any change in the account number or location of the Reserve Account. (c) With respect to any Reserve Account Property: (i) any Reserve Account Property that is a "financial asset" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the Relevant UCC) shall be physically delivered to, or credited to an account in the name of, the Eligible Institution maintaining the Reserve Account, in accordance with such institution's customary procedures such that such institution establishes a "securities entitlement" in favor of the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto; (ii) any Reserve Account Property that is held in deposit accounts shall be held solely in the name of the Indenture Trustee at one or more depository institutions having the Required Rating and each such deposit account shall be subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto; and (iii) except for any deposit accounts specified in clause (ii) above, the Reserve Account shall only be invested in securities or in other assets which the Eligible Institution maintaining the Reserve Account agrees to treat as "financial assets" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the Relevant UCC). 36 (d) If the Reserve Account Amount for any Distribution Date (after giving effect to the withdrawal of the Reserve Account Draw Amount for such Distribution Date) exceeds the Required Reserve Account Amount for such Distribution Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing to distribute the amount of such excess to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest. The Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee hereby release, on each Distribution Date, their security interest in, to and under Reserve Account Property distributed to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest. (e) If the Note Balance and the Certificate Balance, and all other amounts owing or to be distributed hereunder or under the Indenture or the Trust Agreement to the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or the Insurer, have been paid in full and the Trust has been terminated, any remaining Reserve Account Property shall be distributed to the Seller, as holder of the Residual Interest. SECTION 4.8 Net Deposits. As an administrative convenience, unless the Servicer is required to remit collections on a daily basis pursuant to the first sentence of Section 4.2, the Depositor and the Servicer may make any remittance pursuant to this Article IV with respect to a Collection Period net of distributions to be made to the Depositor or the Servicer with respect to such Collection Period; provided, however, that such obligations shall remain separate obligations, no party shall have a right of offset and each such party shall account for all of the above described remittances and distributions as if the amounts were deposited and/or transferred separately. SECTION 4.9 Statements to Noteholders and Certificateholders. On or prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall provide to the Indenture Trustee (with copies to the Depositor, the Insurer, the Rating Agencies and each Paying Agent), for the Indenture Trustee to forward to each Noteholder of record as of the most recent Record Date and to the Owner Trustee (with copies to the Depositor, the Insurer, the Rating Agencies and each Paying Agent) for the Owner Trustee to forward to each Certificateholder of record as of the most recent Record Date, a statement in substantially the form of Exhibit B or Exhibit C, as applicable. Each such statement shall set forth at least the following information as to the Notes and the Certificates (to the extent applicable) with respect to the distribution to be made on such Distribution Date: (i) the amount of such distribution allocable to principal for each Class of Notes and for the Certificates; (ii) the amount of such distribution allocable to current and overdue interest (including any interest on overdue interest) for each Class of Notes and for the Certificates; (iii) the Total Servicing Fee for the preceding Collection Period; (iv) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of each Class of Notes, the Note Pool Factor with respect to each Class of Notes, the Certificate Balance and the Certificate Pool Factor (in each case after giving effect to payments allocated to principal reported under clause (i) above); 37 (v) the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the preceding Collection Period; (vi) the Reserve Account Amount on such Distribution Date (after giving effect to all deposits to or withdrawals from the Reserve Account on such Distribution Date); (vii) the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables repurchased by the Depositor or purchased by the Servicer, if any, with respect to the preceding Collection Period; (viii) the number and aggregate Principal Balance of Receivables that were 31-60 days, 61-90 days or 91 days or more delinquent as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period; and (ix) the Net Losses with respect to the preceding Collection Period; and (x) the amount of Excess Collections with respect to such Distribution Date. SECTION 4.10 Control of Securities Accounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trust agrees that each of the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account and the Reserve Account will only be established at an Eligible Institution that agrees substantially as follows: (i) it will comply with "entitlement orders" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the Relevant UCC) relating to such accounts issued by the Indenture Trustee without further consent by the Trust; (ii) until the termination of the Indenture, it will not enter into any other agreement relating to any such account pursuant to which it agrees to comply with entitlement orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee; and (iii) all assets delivered or credited to it in connection with such accounts and all investments thereof will be promptly credited to such accounts. SECTION 4.11 Policy Matters. (a) The Indenture Trustee hereby agrees on behalf of the Noteholders (and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Notes, hereby agrees) for the benefit of the Insurer that the Indenture Trustee shall recognize that to the extent the Insurer makes a payment under the Policy, either directly or indirectly (as by paying through the Indenture Trustee), to the Noteholders, the Insurer will be entitled to be subrogated to the rights of the Noteholders to the extent of such payment made under the Policy. Any rights of subrogation acquired by the Insurer as a result of any payment made under the Policy shall, in all respects, be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due under the Notes. (b) The Owner Trustee hereby agrees on behalf of the Certificateholders (and each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of its Certificates, hereby agrees) for the benefit of the Insurer that the Indenture Trustee shall recognize that to the extent the Insurer makes a payment under the Policy, either directly or indirectly (as by paying through the Indenture Trustee), to the Certificateholders, the Insurer will be entitled to be subrogated to the rights of the 38 Certificateholders to the extent of such payment made under the Policy. Any rights of subrogation acquired by the Insurer as a result of any payment made under the Policy shall, in all respects, be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due under the Certificates.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including in the definitions of "Note Balance" and "Certificate Balance") or in the other Transaction Documents, Notes and Certificates so owned by or pledged to the Depositor or such Affiliate shall have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, without preference, priority or distinction as among the Notes and the Certificates.

If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section 7.2 and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter shall collect any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest. SECTION 7.3 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Servicer. Any Person (i) into which the Servicer shall be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party or (iii) that shall succeed by purchase and assumption to all or substantially all of the business of the Servicer, which Person in any of the foregoing cases is an Eligible Servicer and executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any other document or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (x) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the 47 Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 7.3 and (y) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been authorized and filed that are necessary to fully preserve and protect the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to fully preserve and protect such interest. The Servicer shall provide prior written notice of any merger, conversion, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section 7.3 to the Insurer and the Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (x) and (y) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above. SECTION 7.4 Limitation on Liability of Servicer and Others. (a) Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance or bad faith in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement, or by reason of negligence in the performance of duties under this Agreement (except for errors in judgment). The Servicer, and its directors, officers, employees and agents, may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person in respect of any matters arising under this Agreement. (b) The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its duties to service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the interests of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders under this Agreement. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Servicer. SECTION 7.5 Delegation of Duties. The Servicer may at any time delegate its duties as servicer under this Agreement to third parties; provided, however, that no such delegation shall relieve the Servicer of its responsibilities with respect to such duties and the Servicer shall be solely responsible for the fees of any such third party; and, provided further, that the Servicer must obtain the prior written consent of the Insurer if such delegation is not in the ordinary course of business. SECTION 7.6 Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3, the Servicer shall not resign from its obligations and duties under this Agreement except (i) 48 upon a determination that the performance of its duties is no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) upon the appointment of a successor Servicer and satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to such resignation and appointment. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the Indenture Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have (i) assumed the obligations and duties of the Servicer in accordance with Section 8.2 and (ii) become the Administrator under the Administration Agreement pursuant to Section 8 thereof. SECTION 7.7 Servicer May Own Notes or Certificates. The Servicer, and any Affiliate of the Servicer, may, in its individual or any other capacity, become the owner or pledgee of Notes or Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer, except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including in the definitions of "Note Balance" and "Certificate Balance") or in the other Transaction Documents. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including in the definitions of "Note Balance" and "Certificate Balance") or in the other Transaction Documents, Notes and Certificates so owned by or pledged to the Servicer or such Affiliate shall have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, without preference, priority or distinction as among the Notes and the Certificates. ARTICLE VIII SERVICING TERMINATION SECTION 8.1 Events of Servicing Termination. (a) The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute an event of servicing termination hereunder (each, an "Event of Servicing Termination"): (i) any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer the Servicer's Certificate for any Collection Period, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of three (3) Business Days following the date such Servicer's Certificate was required to be delivered and the Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date, or any failure by the Servicer to make any required payment or deposit under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of five (5) Business Days following the date such payment or deposit was due and, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Distribution Date or the Business Day preceding a Distribution Date, such Distribution Date or preceding Business Day, as applicable; or (ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in this Agreement, which failure shall materially and adversely affect the rights of the Depositor, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or the Insurer and shall continue unremedied for a period of sixty (60) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance or, if 49 the Notes have been paid in full, by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance; or (iii) any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, other than any representation and warranty relating to a Receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, proving to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made, and the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such circumstance or condition, requiring the same to be eliminated or cured, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer or to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance; or (iv) the entry of a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory authority of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or trustee for the Servicer in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, which decree or order continues unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days; or (v) the consent by the Servicer to the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or trustee in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding of or relating to the Servicer or relating to substantially all of its property, the admission in writing by the Servicer of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, the filing by the Servicer of a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, the making by the Servicer of an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or the voluntary suspension by the Servicer of payment of its obligations; or (vi) the failure by the Servicer to be an Eligible Servicer. If an Event of Servicing Termination or a Trigger Event (as defined in the Insurance Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing and no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Owner Trustee, in each case if directed in writing to do so by the Insurer, by notice then given in writing to the Depositor and the Servicer, shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. If an Event of Servicing Termination shall have occurred and be continuing and an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Owner Trustee or the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, in each case by notice then given in writing to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Insurer (with a copy to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee if given by the Noteholders or the Certificateholders), may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the 50 Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that the indemnification obligations of the Servicer under Section 7.2 shall survive such termination. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates, the Trust Property or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or a successor Servicer appointed under Section 8.2 and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall be authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivable Files or the certificates of title to the Financed Vehicles or otherwise. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and such successor Servicer in effecting the termination of its responsibilities and rights as Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Indenture Trustee or such successor Servicer for administration of all cash amounts that are at the time held by the Servicer for deposit or thereafter shall be received with respect to a Receivable, all Receivable Files and all information or documents that the Indenture Trustee or such successor Servicer may require. In addition, the Servicer shall transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the successor Servicer in such electronic form as the successor Servicer may reasonably request. All reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred or payable by the successor Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing (whether due to termination, resignation or otherwise), including allowable compensation of employees and overhead costs incurred or payable in connection with the transfer of the Receivable Files or any amendment to this Agreement required in connection with the transfer of servicing (which amendment must be approved in writing by the Insurer), (the "Transition Costs") shall be paid by the outgoing Servicer (or by the initial Servicer if the outgoing Servicer is the Indenture Trustee acting on an interim basis) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. (b) The Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall have no obligation to notify the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any other Person of the occurrence of any event specified in Section 8.1(a) prior to the continuance of such event through the end of any cure period specified in Section 8.1(a). SECTION 8.2 Indenture Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor Servicer. Upon the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.6 or the termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.1, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the obligations and duties placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, as successor Servicer, shall have no obligations pursuant to Section 3.8 with respect to the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee's attorneys or the Indenture Trustee's attorneys, the fees and expenses of any custodian appointed by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, the fees and expenses of independent accountants or expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation (whether payable out of the Collection Account or otherwise) as the Servicer would have been entitled to under this Agreement if no such resignation or termination had occurred, except that all collections on or in respect of the Receivables shall be deposited in the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt 51 and shall not be retained by the Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an Eligible Servicer as the successor to the terminated Servicer under this Agreement, subject to the approval of the Insurer, unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor Servicer out of collections on or in respect of the Receivables as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that such compensation shall not be greater than that payable to CarMax as Servicer hereunder without the prior written consent of the Insurer. The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Indenture Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties as successor Servicer under this Section 8.2 until a newly appointed Servicer shall have assumed the obligations and duties of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer hereunder. SECTION 8.3 Effect of Servicing Transfer. (a) After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the Indenture Trustee or successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the successor Servicer payments that are due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer. (b) Except as provided in Section 8.2, after a transfer of servicing hereunder, the outgoing Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the administration, servicing, custody or collection of the Receivables and the successor Servicer shall have all of such obligations, except that the outgoing Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly to the successor Servicer for its own account, promptly on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts or items held by the outgoing Servicer (properly endorsed where required for the successor Servicer to collect any such items) received as payments upon or otherwise in connection with the Receivables. (c) Any successor Servicer shall provide the Depositor and the Insurer with access to the Receivable Files and to the successor Servicer's records (whether written or automated) with respect to the Receivable Files. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the successor Servicer. Nothing in this Section 8.3 shall affect the obligation of the successor Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 8.3. (d) Any transfer of servicing hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related successor Servicer of any liability of the related outgoing Servicer arising out of any breach by such outgoing Servicer of such outgoing Servicer's duties hereunder prior to such transfer of servicing. 52 SECTION 8.4 Notification to Noteholders, Insurer, Certificateholders and Rating Agencies. Upon any notice of an Event of Servicing Termination or upon any termination of, or any appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders and the Insurer and the Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders and the Rating Agencies. SECTION 8.5 Waiver of Past Events of Servicing Termination. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Certificate Balance may, on behalf of all Noteholders and Certificateholders, as applicable, waive any Event of Servicing Termination and its consequences, except an event resulting from the failure to make any required deposits to or payments from the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account, or the Reserve Account in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that no Event of Servicing Termination shall be waived without the consent of the Insurer if such waiver would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the rights of the Insurer; and, provided further, that the Insurer (if no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing), in its discretion, may waive any Event of Servicing Termination. Upon any such waiver of an Event of Servicing Termination, such event shall cease to exist, and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right arising therefrom, except to the extent expressly so waived. ARTICLE IX TERMINATION SECTION 9.1 Optional Purchase of All Receivables. (a) If, as of the last day of any Collection Period, the Pool Balance shall be less than or equal to 10% of the initial Pool Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase on the following Distribution Date the Owner Trust Estate, other than the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account or the Reserve Account. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Distribution Date on which such repurchase is to be effected and shall deposit into the Collection Account on the Business Day preceding such Distribution Date an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables, plus the appraised value of any other Trust Property, other than the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Certificate Payment Account or the Reserve Account, such value to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be permitted to exercise such option unless the amount to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to this Section 9.1(a) is at least equal to the sum of all amounts due to the Servicer under this Agreement plus the Note Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Notes plus the Certificate Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Certificates plus all amounts due to the Insurer under the Transaction Documents or the Policy. Upon such payment, the Servicer shall succeed to and own all interests in and to the Trust. The aggregate Purchase Amount for such 53 Distribution Date, plus, to the extent necessary, all amounts in the Reserve Account, shall be used to make payments in full to the Noteholders, the Certificateholders and the Insurer in the manner set forth in Article IV. (b) If, at the time the Servicer exercises its purchase option hereunder, the Servicer's long-term unsecured debt has a rating lower than investment grade by the Rating Agencies, the Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee on such Distribution Date (i) a letter from an Independent investment bank or an Independent public accountant to the effect that the price paid by the Servicer for the Receivables at the time of transfer pursuant to such purchase option represented a fair market price for such Receivables or (ii) a letter from the Rating Agencies to the effect that no such letter is required. (c) Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders shall succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and the Indenture Trustee shall continue to carry out its obligations hereunder with respect to the Certificateholders, including making distributions from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.6(d), making withdrawals from the Reserve Account in accordance with Sections 4.6(b) and 4.7 and submitting claims for payment under the Insurance Policy in accordance with the terms thereof. ARTICLE X MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS SECTION 10.1 Amendment. (a) This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, but without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provisions in this Agreement or any offering document used in connection with the initial offer and sale of the Notes or the Certificates or to add, change or eliminate any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment may materially adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder, (ii) no such amendment will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not cause the Trust to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or outstanding Certificates or any Noteholder or Certificateholder and (iii) no such amendment will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if such amendment would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer. (b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not 54 less than 51% of the Certificate Balance, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that (x) no such amendment will be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not cause the Trust to be characterized for federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse impact on the federal income taxation of any Notes Outstanding or outstanding Certificates or any Noteholder or Certificateholder and (y) no such amendment will be permitted without the consent of the Insurer if such amendment would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer; and, provided further, that no such amendment may: (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, or change any Note Rate or the Certificate Rate, without the consent of all Noteholders and Certificateholders adversely affected by such amendment; (ii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or the percentage of the Certificate Balance the consent of the Holders of which is required for any amendment to this Agreement without the consent of all the Noteholders and Certificateholders adversely affected by such amendment; or (iii) adversely affect the rating assigned by either Rating Agency to any Class of Notes or the Certificates without the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such Class or the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Certificate Balance.

The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Noteholders and the Certificateholders shall be 55 subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may prescribe.

(g) The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.3(m), 2.3(n) and 7.1(g) may not be amended or waived. SECTION 10.2 Protection of Title to Trust. (a) The Depositor or the Servicer, or both, shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof. The Depositor or the Servicer, or both, shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above as soon as available following such filing. (b) Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer shall change its name, identity or organizational structure in any manner that would make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by the Depositor or the Servicer in accordance with Section 10.2(a) seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9-506 of the Relevant UCC, unless it shall have given the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least sixty (60) days' prior written notice thereof and shall have promptly filed such amendments to previously filed financing statements or continuation statements or such new financing statements as may be necessary to continue the perfection of the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof.

The Depositor shall at all times maintain its jurisdiction of organization, its principal place of business and its chief executive office within the United States of America. The Servicer shall at 56 all times maintain each office from which it shall service Receivables and each office at which the Receivable Files are located within the United States of America. (d) The Servicer shall maintain accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at any time the status of such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii) reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect to) each Receivable and the amounts from time to time deposited in the Collection Account and the Reserve Account in respect of such Receivable. (e) The Servicer shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer's master computer records (including any back-up archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly and unambiguously the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Trust and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Indication of the Trust's and the Indenture Trustee's interest in a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on the Servicer's computer systems when, and only when, such Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased by the Depositor or purchased by the Servicer. (f) If at any time the Depositor or the Servicer shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle retail installment sale contract to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Servicer shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, compact disks, records or print-outs (including any restored from back-up archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly and unambiguously that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Trust and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee (unless such Receivable has been paid in full or repurchased by the Depositor or purchased by the Servicer). (g) The Servicer shall permit the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and their respective agents at any time during normal business hours to inspect, audit and make copies of and abstracts from the Servicer's records regarding any Receivable.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Issuer, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the Controlling Class or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest, for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Agreement or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may: (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on or in respect of the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders without the consent of all Noteholders and Certificateholders adversely affected by such amendment; or (ii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or the percentage of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest the consent of the Holders of which is required for any amendment to this Agreement without the consent of all the Noteholders and Certificateholders adversely affected by such amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may not amend this Agreement without the consent of the Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. SECTION 13. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in writing by the Issuer 10 and the Owner Trustee and the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such assignment. An assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger, consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator; provided, however, that such successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which such corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of such assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto. SECTION 14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF WHICH MAY REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW). SECTION 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. SECTION 16. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. SECTION 17. Not Applicable to CarMax Auto Superstores, Inc. in Other Capacities. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any obligation CarMax Auto Superstores, Inc. may have in any other capacity. SECTION 18. Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been countersigned by the Owner Trustee not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the Issuer, and in no event shall the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Issuer hereunder or in any of the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been countersigned by the Indenture Trustee not in its individual capacity but 11 solely as Indenture Trustee, and in no event shall the Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Issuer hereunder or in any of the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer. SECTION 19. Third-Party Beneficiary. The Owner Trustee is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and is entitled to the rights and benefits hereunder and may enforce the provisions hereof as if it were a party hereto. SECTION 20. Successor Servicer and Administrator. The Administrator shall undertake, as promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to enforce the provisions of such Section 8.2 with respect to the appointment of a successor Servicer. Such successor Servicer shall, upon compliance with the second to last sentence of Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, become the successor Administrator hereunder; provided, however, that if the Indenture Trustee shall become such successor Administrator, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to perform any obligations or duties or conduct any activities as successor Administrator that would be prohibited by law and not within the banking and trust powers of the Indenture Trustee. In such event, the Indenture Trustee may appoint a sub-administrator to perform such obligations and duties. Any transfer of servicing pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and related succession as Administrator hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related successor Administrator of any liability of the related outgoing Administrator arising out of any breach by such outgoing Administrator of such outgoing Administrator's duties hereunder prior to such transfer. SECTION 21. Nonpetition Covenants. (a) Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Agreement, the Depositor, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall not at any time acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Issuer to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Issuer under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.

No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the operation of any of the terms of any Receivable, or the exercise of any right thereunder, will not render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the Seller has no knowledge of any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense being asserted or threatened with respect to any Receivable.

Except for payment defaults continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, the Seller has no knowledge that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred or that any 8 continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has arisen, and the Seller has not waived any such event or condition. (xii) Title. The Seller intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a) constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Depositor and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables not be part of the Seller's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. The Seller has not sold, transferred, assigned or pledged any Receivable to any Person other than the Depositor. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a), the Seller had good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person and, immediately upon such transfer, the Depositor shall have good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person. (xiii) Security Interest Matters. This Agreement creates a valid and continuing "security interest" (as defined in the Relevant UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Depositor, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller. With respect to each Receivable, the Seller has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against the related Obligor in the related Financed Vehicle. The Receivables constitute "tangible chattel paper" (as defined in the Relevant UCC). The Seller has caused or will cause prior to the Closing Date the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing offices in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law necessary to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted to the Depositor under this Agreement. Other than the security interest granted to the Depositor under this Agreement, the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Depositor under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or that has been terminated. The motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables do not have any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Depositor, the Trust or the Indenture Trustee. The Seller is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Seller. (xiv) Financing Statements. All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Trust (as assignee of the Depositor) contain a statement substantially to the following effect: "A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Trust." All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Indenture Trustee (as assignee of the Trust) contain a statement substantially to the following effect: "A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee." 9 (xv) Valid Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the pledge of such Receivable under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge. The Seller has not entered into any agreement with any account debtor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the Receivables. (xvi) One Original. There is only one original executed copy of each Receivable. (xvii) Principal Balance. Each Receivable had an original Principal Balance of not more than $[__________] and a remaining Principal Balance as of the Cutoff Date of not less than $[__________]. (xviii) No Bankrupt Obligors.

(xx) Origination. Each Receivable was originated after [__________], 20[__]. (xxi) Term to Maturity. Each Receivable had an original term to maturity of not more than [____] months and not less than [____] months and a remaining term to maturity as of the Cutoff Date of not more than [____] months and not less than [____] months. (xxii) Weighted Average Remaining Term to Maturity. As of the Cutoff Date, the weighted average remaining term to maturity of the Receivables was approximately [____] months.

All payments with respect to the Receivables have been allocated consistently in accordance with the Simple Interest Method. (xxvi) No Delinquent Receivables. As of the Cutoff Date, no payment due under any Receivable was more than 30 days past due. 10 (xxvii) Insurance. Each Obligor has obtained or agreed to obtain physical damage insurance (which insurance shall not be force placed insurance) covering the related Financed Vehicle in accordance with the Seller's normal requirements. (xxviii) Fair Market Value. The Receivables Purchase Price and the value of the Certificates represent the fair market value of the Receivables. (xxix) Custodial Agreements. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables by the Seller to the Depositor, the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller had possession of the Receivable Files and there were no, and there will not be any, custodial agreements in effect materially adversely affecting the right or ability of the Seller to make, or cause to be made, any delivery required under this Agreement. (xxx) Bulk Transfer Laws. The transfer of the Receivables and the Receivable Files by the Seller to the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement is not subject to the bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction. (c) The Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold the Purchaser harmless against any losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses resulting from any third party claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Seller's representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2(b). The Trustees shall also have the remedies provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. (d) Any cause of action against the Seller relating to or arising out of the breach of any of its representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2(b) shall accrue as to any Receivable upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Purchaser or either Trustee or notice thereof by the Seller to the Purchaser, (ii) failure by the Seller to cure such breach and (iii) demand upon the Seller by the Purchaser for all amounts payable in respect of such Receivable under this Agreement.

(f) If a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.2(b) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser, the Trust or the Noteholders in any Receivable shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the thirtieth day after the date on which the Seller becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Servicer, the Purchaser or the Owner Trustee of, such breach or failure, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable from the Purchaser on the Distribution Date following such Collection Period. In consideration for the repurchase of any such Receivable, the Seller shall remit the Purchase Amount of such Receivable to the Purchaser. Upon any such repurchase, the Purchaser shall, without further action, be deemed to transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to the Seller, without recourse, representation or 11 warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under such repurchased Receivable and all other related assets described in Section 2.1(a). The Purchaser shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Seller to effect the conveyance of such Receivable pursuant to this section.

Except for payment defaults continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, the Seller has no knowledge that any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred or that any continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has arisen, and the Seller has not waived any such event or condition. (xii) Title. The Seller intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a) constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Depositor and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables not be part of the Seller's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. The Seller has not sold, transferred, assigned or pledged any Receivable to any Person other than the Depositor. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.1(a), the Seller had good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person and, immediately upon such transfer, the Depositor shall have good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

The motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables do not have any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Depositor, the Trust or the Indenture Trustee. The Seller is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Seller. (xiv) Financing Statements.

All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Indenture Trustee (as assignee of the Trust) contain a statement substantially to the following effect: "A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee." (xv) Valid Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the pledge of such Receivable under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge.
