ARTICLE II

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF

RECEIVABLES AND TRUST PROPERTY

SECTION 2.1 Duties of Servicer.

(a) The Servicer is hereby appointed and authorized by the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust to act as agent for the Grantor Trust for the benefit of the Issuing Entity, the Issuing Entity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, and in such capacity shall service and make collections on the Receivables in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices and Applicable Law, subject to the provisions herein, using the degree of skill and care that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable motor vehicle receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer’s duties will include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors, pursuing delinquencies, recovery and remarketing of Financed Vehicles, making available payment or other information (which may be in electronic form or through a web portal) to Obligors, accounting for Collections, administering insurance claim filings and providing monthly reports in accordance with Section 2.7. The Servicer is not required under the Transaction Documents to make any disbursements via wire transfer or otherwise on behalf of an Obligor. There are no requirements under the Receivables or the Transaction Documents for funds to be, and funds shall not be, held in trust for an Obligor. There are no requirements under the Receivables or the Transaction Documents for payments or disbursements to be made by the Servicer on behalf of the Obligor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than with respect to Section 4.5, the Servicer shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations or the taking of any action hereunder (and such failure or delay shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or a Servicer Termination Event) if such failure or delay arises from compliance by the Servicer with any law or court order or at the direction of a regulatory authority. The Servicer hereby accepts such appointment and authorization and agrees to perform the duties of Servicer with respect to the Receivables set forth herein.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2 and any other provision in this Agreement restricting the Servicer or specifying obligations different from the Customary Servicing Practices, the Servicer will follow its Customary Servicing Practices and will have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable. The Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Grantor Trust Trustee the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or to the Financed Vehicles securing such Receivables. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the Grantor Trust, a Proceeding to enforce a Receivable or an Insurance Policy or to commence or participate in any other Proceeding (including a bankruptcy Proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, an Obligor, a Financed Vehicle or an Insurance Policy. If the Servicer commences a Proceeding to enforce a Receivable or an Insurance Policy, the Grantor Trust will thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned

 

  2   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


such Receivable or its rights under such Insurance Policy to the Servicer solely for purposes of commencing or participating in any such Proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Grantor Trust to execute and deliver in the Servicer’s name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such Proceeding. If in any Proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable or Insurance Policy on the ground that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable or Insurance Policy, the Indenture Trustee will, at the Servicer’s expense and direction, take steps to enforce the Receivable or Insurance Policy, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust. The Servicer will prepare and furnish and the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee will execute any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

(c) The Servicer shall not be required to maintain a fidelity bond or error and omissions policy or to monitor whether Obligors obtain or maintain an Insurance Policy on the Financed Vehicles.

SECTION 2.2 Collection of Receivable Payments. (a) The Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same become due in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices. The Servicer shall notify Obligors (and each other Person who makes payments relating to the Receivables) to make payments directly to a Depository Account, to mail payment to one of the Post-Office Boxes and/or to pay through any Third Party Bill Payment Service, in each case, in accordance with Customary Servicing Practices. When the Servicer receives any Collections on the Receivables (including payments mailed to one of the Post-Office Boxes or payments received from a Third Party Bill Payment Service), the Servicer shall hold such Collections in trust in accordance with the Master Depository Agreement for the benefit of the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, as applicable (provided, however, that if the Backup Servicer becomes the Servicer, the Backup Servicer may comingle payments with its own funds), and shall, as soon as possible but no later than two (2) Business Days following identification, deposit such Collections into the Collection Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, at its option, may retain Supplemental Servicing Fees and may net Liquidation Expenses from any Liquidation Proceeds otherwise required to be deposited into the Collection Account. The Servicer shall allocate Collections it receives to principal, interest and fees in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices. The Servicer may grant Permitted Modifications, but not any other extension, deferral, amendment, modification, alteration, temporary reduction in payments or adjustment, with respect to any Receivable in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices.

Permitted Modification” means an extension, deferral, alteration, amendment, modification, temporary reduction in payment or adjustment to the terms of, or with respect to, any Receivable with respect to which at least one of the following conditions has been satisfied:

 

  (i)

any amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment, individually and collectively with any other amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment proposed to be made with respect to the Receivable, is ministerial in nature (including, without limitation, any change to the due date for monthly payments from an Obligor to a different day in the month or a waiver of any Supplemental Servicing Fees);

 

  3   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


  (ii)

any amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment, individually and collectively with any other amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment that is required by Applicable Law (including at the direction of a regulatory authority or court order);

 

  (iii)

in the case of any extension or deferral, the Obligor’s address is within a geographic area determined by the President of the United States or the Governor of the applicable state to warrant individual, or individual and public, assistance from the federal government under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act or similar state law, as the case may be;

 

  (iv)

any amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment where the Obligor is in default and the Servicer believes that such amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment is appropriate or necessary to preserve the value of the Receivable and to prevent the Receivable from becoming further impaired;

 

  (v)

any other extension, deferral, amendment, modification, alteration, temporary reduction in payment, or adjustment (A) which is in accordance with the Servicer’s Customary Servicing Practices and (B) the Servicer believes that such amendment, modification, alteration or adjustment is appropriate or necessary to preserve the value of such Receivable and to prevent such Receivable from going into default (or, where the Receivable is already in default, to prevent the Receivable from becoming further impaired); or

 

  (vi)

an opinion has been delivered to the Issuing Entity and the Administrator to the effect that such extension, deferral, amendment, modification, alteration, temporary reduction in payment or adjustment will not cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may not reduce the APR or Principal Balance with respect to any Receivable, in either case other than as required by Applicable Law or court order, at the direction of a regulatory authority, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel in accordance with regulatory guidance or in accordance with the Servicer’s compliance procedures for complying with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act and any similar applicable federal, state or local law. If the Servicer reduces the APR or Principal Balance of any Receivable other than as permitted, then the Servicer will pay the Actual Loss Amount with respect to such Receivable in accordance with Section 2.6. Additionally, if the Servicer extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond the last day of the Collection Period preceding the latest Final Scheduled Distribution Date of all classes of Notes issued under the Indenture, then the Servicer shall pay the Actual Loss Amount (if any) with respect to such Receivable in accordance with Section 2.6.

 

  4   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


(c) The Servicer may in its discretion waive any late payment charge or any other fees that constitute Supplemental Servicing Fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. The Servicer is not required to make any advances of funds or guarantees regarding collections, cash flows or distributions. Nothing in any section of this Agreement shall be construed to prevent the Servicer from implementing new programs, whether on an intermediate, pilot or permanent basis, or on a regional or nationwide basis, or from modifying its standards, policies and procedures as long as, in each case, such programs or modifications would be consistent with its Customary Servicing Practices.

SECTION 2.3 Realization Upon Receivables. (a) On behalf of the Grantor Trust, the Servicer will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its Customary Servicing Practices, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the Financed Vehicle securing any Receivable as to which the Servicer has determined that eventual payment in full is unlikely, unless it determines in its sole discretion that repossession will not increase the Liquidation Proceeds by an amount greater than the expense of such repossession, that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to such Receivable would be increased by forbearance or that repossessing such Financed Vehicle would otherwise not be consistent with the Servicer’s Customary Servicing Practices. The Servicer will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its Customary Servicing Practices to maximize net proceeds from the repossession of a Financed Vehicle and follow such Customary Servicing Practices as it deems necessary or advisable, which may include selling the Financed Vehicle at public or private sale. The foregoing will be subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Financed Vehicle has suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Vehicle.

(b) In addition, the Servicer may from time to time (but is not required to) sell any Charged-Off Receivables on behalf of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices; provided, however, (1) that each sale must be made at a price equal to the fair market value of such Charged-Off Receivable in immediately available funds and (2) the aggregate Unpaid Charged-Off Balances of Charged-Off Receivables sold to Third-Party Purchasers shall not exceed 15% of the Pool Balance as of the Cutoff Date. To facilitate any such sale the Servicer may, in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices, purchase from the Grantor Trust such Charged-Off Receivable for a purchase price equal to the proceeds received by the Servicer from a Third Party Purchaser for the sale of such Charged-Off Receivable or may (i) direct the Grantor Trust to sell any Charged-Off Receivable to a Third Party Purchaser or (ii) direct the Grantor Trust to enter into one or more Forward Commitment Transfers in connection with the sale of a Charged-Off Receivable. Subject to clause (c) below, net proceeds of any such sale allocable to the Receivable will constitute Liquidation Proceeds, and the sole right of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee with respect to any such sold Receivables will be to receive such Liquidation Proceeds. Upon such sale, the Servicer will mark its computer records indicating that any such sold Receivable is no longer a Receivable. The Servicer is authorized to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate on behalf of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to evidence the sale of the Financed Vehicle at a public or private sale or the sale of the Receivable to the Servicer to facilitate a Charged-Off Receivable sale pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph, in each case, free from any Lien or other interest of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or the Indenture Trustee.

 

  5   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


(c) Each of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee hereby agrees that the Servicer may, in connection with any sale of a Charged-Off Receivable contemplated by clause (b) above and in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices, (i) make representations and warranties (to the extent not more expansive than the representations and warranties in Section 4.1) and provide indemnities (to the extent not more than more expansive than the indemnities set forth in Section 4.2) for the benefit of the Third-Party Purchaser if and to the extent required by such Third-Party Purchaser, (ii) reimburse the Third-Party Purchaser’s costs in the event such Charged-Off Receivable, at the time of sale to such Third-Party Purchaser, was an Unenforceable Receivable, and such reimbursement shall be deemed to be a Liquidation Expense (provided, that such deemed Liquidation Expense shall not exceed the Purchase Price of such Charged-Off Receivable), and (iii) execute all agreements and documents reasonably required to be executed by the Servicer in connection with any sale of a Charged-Off Receivable; provided, however, that any such agreement be consistent with the terms hereof and impose no greater duties, liabilities or obligations upon the Servicer, the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity, or the Indenture Trustee than those set forth in the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 2.4 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices, take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect or continue the priority and perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle (it being understood that the Servicer shall have no obligation to monitor or otherwise maintain the perfection of the security interest created by a Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle). The Issuing Entity, Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee hereby authorize the Servicer to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest created by the Receivable in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason.

SECTION 2.5 Additional Covenants of Servicer.

(a) Unless required by Applicable Law or court order, at the direction of a regulatory authority or, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, in accordance with regulatory guidance, the Servicer will not release the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except (a) in the event of payment in full by or on behalf of the Obligor thereunder or payment in full less a deficiency which the Servicer would not attempt to collect in accordance with its Customary Servicing Practices, (b) in connection with the repossession and liquidation of such Financed Vehicle or (c) as may be required by an insurer in order to receive proceeds from any Insurance Policy covering such Financed Vehicle.

(b) Except to the extent required by Applicable Law or court order, at the direction of a regulatory authority or, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, in accordance with regulatory guidance, the Servicer shall not do anything to materially impair the rights of the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders in the Receivables or to cause the Receivables to no longer satisfy the requirements for “control” of electronic chattel paper under the UCC.

SECTION 2.6 Indemnification upon Breach. The Servicer, the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee shall inform the other parties promptly, in writing, (i) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Grantor Trust Trustee, if a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge of or receives written notice of, and (ii) in the case of the Servicer, upon the discovery or receipt of notice by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer of any breach of Sections 2.2(b) or 2.5 which would require the Servicer to make an Actual Loss Payment in accordance with Section 3.3(a) and, except for a breach of Section 2.2(b), any breach that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders, taken as a whole; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Servicer hereunder. Unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects by the thirtieth (30th) day following such discovery or receipt of notice of such breach, such Receivable shall become an Indemnified Receivable and the Servicer shall make an Actual Loss Payment (if any) in accordance with Section 3.3(a). Except as provided in Section 2.2 and Section 4.2, the sole and exclusive remedy of the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of Sections 2.2(b) or 2.5 with respect to any Receivable shall be to require the Servicer to make a payment to the Grantor Trust equal to the Actual Loss Amount in accordance with Section 3.3(a) (and such breach shall not be a Servicer Termination Event).

SECTION 2.7 Servicing Fee. The Servicing Fee for the initial Distribution Date shall equal the product of (i) 23/360 of the Servicing Fee Rate, multiplied by (ii) the Initial Pool Balance. Thereafter, the Servicing Fee for any Distribution Date shall equal (a) with respect to the Initial Servicer, the product of (A) one-twelfth of the Servicing Fee Rate, multiplied by (B) the Pool Balance as of the opening of business on the first day of the related Collection Period and (b) with respect to the Successor Servicer if the Backup Servicer, (A) one-twelfth of the Successor Servicing Fee Rate (Backup Servicer), multiplied by (B) the Pool Balance as of the opening of business on the first day of the related Collection Period, or (c) with respect to any other Successor Servicer, the fee payable to such Successor Servicer. In addition to the Servicing Fee, the Servicer and any Successor Servicer shall be entitled to receive Supplemental Servicing Fees and Liquidation Expenses in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Indenture and is entitled to retain all Investment Earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on the funds in its Depository Accounts. The Indenture Trustee may make arrangements for compensation to be paid to the Successor Servicer, which in no event may be greater than the servicing compensation to the Servicer hereunder, unless consented to by the Requisite Noteholders. Notwithstanding anything else herein 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 hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

(c) No Consent Required. No approval or authorization by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer of this Agreement other than (i) UCC filings, (ii) approvals and authorizations that have previously been obtained and filings that have previously been made and (iii) approvals, authorizations or filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the enforceability or collectability of the Receivables or would not materially and adversely affect the ability of the Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Binding Effect. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable against the Servicer in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and, if applicable, the rights of creditors of corporations from time to time in effect or by general principles of equity.

SECTION 4.2 Indemnities of Servicer. The Servicer will be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Servicer under this Agreement, and hereby agrees to the following:

(a) The Servicer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Collateral Custodian, the Backup Servicer and the Seller and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all costs (including reasonable legal fees and related costs), expenses, losses, claims, damages, and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage, or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon any such Person through, the negligence (other than errors in judgment), willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and

 

  14   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein by the Servicer (excluding, however, costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent resulting from the negligence (or gross negligence (except for errors in judgment) in the case where the Owner Trustee, Grantor Trust Trustee, Indenture Trustee or Collateral Custodian is seeking indemnification) or willful misconduct on the part of the indemnified party or breach of any Transaction Document by the indemnified party (in the case of the Indenture Trustee and Collateral Custodian, resulting from the Indenture Trustee’s or the Collateral Custodian’s negligence or willful misconduct)). Such indemnification shall include any amounts incurred by an indemnified party in connection with the enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Servicer shall not be liable under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document for any special, consequential or punitive damages whatsoever, whether in contract, tort or any other legal or equitable principle; provided, however, that such limitation shall not be applicable with respect to indemnification obligations for third-party claims made against a party.

(c) Indemnification under this Section 4.2 by the Initial Servicer (or any successor thereto pursuant to Section 5.1), as Servicer, with respect to the period such Person was the Servicer, will survive the termination of such Person as Servicer or a resignation by such Person as Servicer as well as the resignation or removal of any other party or the termination or assignment of this Agreement. If the Servicer has made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section 4.2 and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person will promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest. If the Backup Servicer becomes the Servicer, the Backup Servicer shall continue to have the benefit of this Section 4.2 for the period of time in which it was the Backup Servicer.

(d) The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sponsor, the Depositor, and each person, if any, who controls the Sponsor 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 (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) whatsoever, as incurred that arises out of or in connection with: (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in, the information under the headings “Servicer”, “Servicing Procedures”, and “The Transaction Documents—The Servicing Agreement and Servicing of the Receivables”, in each case as set forth in (i) the Registration Statement at the time of first effectiveness on March 18, 2022, (ii) the Preliminary Prospectus, (iii) each Free Writing Prospectus identified on Schedule I, and (iv) the Prospectus, and (2) any untrue statement of a material fact in the information provided by the Servicer for inclusion in each Form 10-D and ABS-EE and related exhibits, as set forth in Schedule II.

(e) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Servicer under this Section 4.2, notify the Servicer of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the Servicer will not relieve it from any liability which it

 

  15   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


may have to any indemnified party, unless, and then only to the extent that, the Servicer did not otherwise learn of the claim and such delay is materially prejudicial to the Servicer’s ability to defend or to obtain coverage under the Servicer’s insurance policy for such claim. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the Servicer of the commencement thereof, the Servicer will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish and solely with respect to the allegations in such action for which the indemnified party intends to make a claim against the Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.2, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the Servicer to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Servicer will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the Servicer and the indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest prevents the indemnified party and the Servicer having the same counsel, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select a single separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties, and the Servicer will reimburse any reasonable legal expenses incurred by the indemnified party having separate counsel, as a result of any such conflict, as incurred. The Servicer shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and any related future claims.

SECTION 4.3 Limitation on Liability of Servicer and Others. (a) The Servicer will be liable under this Agreement only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Servicer under this Agreement and the representations and warranties made by the Servicer hereunder. Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer will be under any liability to the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Collateral Custodian, the Backup Servicer, the Seller, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, except as provided in Section 4.2 of this Agreement and as otherwise provided under this Agreement, 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 will 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 its failure to perform its obligations or of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement, or by reason of negligence in the performance of its duties under this Agreement (except for errors in judgment). The Servicer and any director, officer or employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any Opinion of Counsel or on any Officer’s Certificate of the Seller or certificate of auditors believed to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party in respect of any matters arising under this Agreement. Additionally, the Servicer shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations or the taking of any action under this Agreement if that failure or delay arises from compliance by the Servicer with any Applicable Law or court order or the direction of a regulatory authority.

 

  16   

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


(b) Except as explicitly provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Servicer will not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not necessary in furtherance of its duties to service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement and its Customary Servicing Practices.

SECTION 4.4 Delegation of Duties. The Servicer may, at any time without notice or consent, delegate (a) any or all of its duties under the Transaction Documents to any of its Affiliates or (b) specific duties to sub-contractors who are in the business of performing such duties; provided, that no such delegation shall relieve the Servicer of its responsibility with respect to such duties and the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee for its duties hereunder as if the Servicer alone were performing such duties.

SECTION 4.5 The Servicer Not to Resign as Servicer. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.3 and 4.4, the Servicer will not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it as Servicer under this Agreement except upon a determination that the performance of its duties under this Agreement is not permissible under Applicable Law. Notice of any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer will be communicated to the Indenture Trustee and the Backup Servicer by the Servicer at the earliest practicable time (and, if such communication is not in writing, will be confirmed in writing at the earliest practicable time) and any such determination will be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Backup Servicer concurrently with or promptly after such notice. No such resignation will become effective until a Successor Servicer has assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer. If, after the Servicer gives notice of its intent to resign or is removed, a Successor Servicer does not take office within (a) sixty (60) days or (b) such earlier time period set forth in the Backup Servicing Agreement under which the Backup Servicer is required to assume the obligations of the predecessor Servicer, the retiring Servicer, the Issuing Entity or the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class of Notes may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment and designation of a Successor Servicer.

SECTION 4.6 Servicer May Own Notes and Certificates. The Servicer, and any Affiliate of the Servicer, may, in its individual or any other capacity, become the owner or pledgee of Notes and Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Servicer or an Affiliate thereof, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents. Except as set forth herein or in the other Transaction Documents, Notes and Certificates so owned by or pledged to the Servicer or such Affiliate will have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement, without preference, priority or distinction as among all of the Noteholders and Certificateholders.

REPLACEMENT OF SERVICER

SECTION 5.1 Replacement of Servicer.

(a) If a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction of the Requisite Noteholders (or, if no Notes (other than Class XS Notes) are Outstanding, the Majority Certificateholders) shall, by notice given to the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Issuing Entity, the Administrator, the Certificateholders and the Noteholders, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the Receivables. In the event the Servicer is removed or resigns as Servicer with respect to servicing the Receivables, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in (i) the Backup Servicer; or (ii) if the Backup Servicer has been terminated, such Successor Servicer as may be approved under clause (b) below.

(b) Upon the Servicer’s receipt of notice of termination pursuant to clause (a) above or the Servicer’s resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, only until the Backup Servicer (or another Successor Servicer) has assumed the obligations of the predecessor Servicer in the time period set forth in the Backup Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall give the Backup Servicer written notice of the Servicer’s termination or resignation. In the event of termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall assume the obligations of Servicer hereunder (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the Backup Servicing Agreement) by the Appointment Effective Date set forth in the Backup Servicing Agreement.

The amount of the Servicing Fee payable to (1) the Backup Servicer as Successor Servicer shall be the Successor Servicing Fee Rate (Backup Servicer) and (2) any Successor Servicer (excluding the Backup Servicer) shall be any rate pursuant to this Agreement in an amount acceptable to the Requisite Noteholders and shall not exceed the Servicing Strip Amount unless otherwise agreed to by the Requisite Noteholders; provided that, in no event shall the amount of the Servicing Fee payable to the predecessor Servicer be less than the pro rata share of the Servicing Fee due to such predecessor Servicer based on the number of days such predecessor Servicer served as Servicer in the related Collection Period. The Backup Servicer shall act as Successor Servicer unless it is legally unable to do so, in which event the predecessor Servicer shall continue to act as Servicer until a successor acceptable to the Requisite Noteholders has been appointed and accepted such appointment. In the event that a successor Servicer has not been appointed and the Backup Servicer is legally unable to act at the time when the predecessor Servicer has ceased to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section 5.1, then the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity or the Requisite Noteholders shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement at

the expense of the Issuing Entity and paid in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Indenture. If requested by the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, to the extent not inconsistent with the Master Agency Agreement, the Servicer will terminate, or cause to be terminated, any arrangements relating to (A) the Depository Accounts; or (B) the Post-Office Boxes, and give notices thereunder or take other actions with respect thereto, and direct the Obligors to make all payments under the Receivables directly to or at the direction of the Successor Servicer at the predecessor Servicer’s expense (in which event the Successor Servicer shall process such payments directly, through a lock-box account with a lock-box bank or through a third-party payment processing system, in each case, at the direction of the Indenture Trustee acting at the direction of the Requisite Noteholders).

(c) If replaced, the Servicer agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the servicing of the Receivables to a Successor Servicer. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with transferring the Receivable Files and Servicer Files to the Successor Servicer and all other reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with the transfer to the Successor Servicer related to the performance by the Servicer hereunder will be paid by the predecessor Servicer (or, if not so paid by the predecessor Servicer, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Sections 2.7(c) or 2.7(e) of the Indenture, as applicable) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. The Successor Servicer, if the Backup Servicer, shall be entitled to payment for reasonable transaction expenses incurred in connection with acting as Successor Servicer in accordance with the priorities and limits set forth in Section 2.7(a) or 2.7(e) of the Indenture, as applicable. The Servicer shall grant the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Backup Servicer reasonable access to the Servicer’s premises at the predecessor Servicer’s expense as contemplated by, and subject the restrictions set forth in, Section 7.15.

(d) Upon the Appointment Effective Date or the Assumption Date, as applicable, the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the Receivables, and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto, except with respect to the obligations of the predecessor Servicer that survive its termination as Servicer, including indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 4.2(c). In such event, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee are hereby authorized and empowered (but not obligated) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the predecessor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such termination and replacement of the Servicer, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and related documents, or otherwise. No Servicer shall resign or be relieved of its duties under this Agreement, as Servicer of the Receivables, until a newly appointed Servicer for the Receivables shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the resigning or terminated Servicer under this Agreement. Without limiting any of the foregoing, under no circumstance shall Vervent Inc. (as Successor Servicer or otherwise) or any other Successor Servicer be deemed to have incurred any obligation to make any advance or provide indemnification for Actual Loss Amounts with respect to any Receivables or any liability or obligation with respect to any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior servicer including the Initial Servicer.

CRVNA 2022-P2 Servicing Agreement


(e) The Requisite Noteholders (or, if no Notes (other than Class XS Notes) are Outstanding, the Majority Certificateholders) may waive any Servicing Termination Event. Upon any such waiver, such Servicing Termination Event shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred and any Servicing Termination Event arising therefrom shall be deemed not to have occurred for every purpose of this Agreement, but no such waiver shall extend to any prior, subsequent or other Servicing Termination Event or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 5.2 Notification to Noteholders and Certificateholders. If a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee receives any written notice of a Servicer Termination Event or if the Servicer is terminated or a successor Servicer appointed pursuant to this Article V, then the Indenture Trustee will give prompt (but in no case later than five (5) Business Days) notice of such event to the Owner Trustee (who shall in turn give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Grantor Trust, the Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Noteholders.
