Term of Contract Purchases.
Contract Offer. As to each offered Contract, Dealer shall provide Cambridge Acceptance with (i) the Transaction’s proposed terms, (ii) all credit information Dealer has regarding the proposed Borrowers thereunder, and (iii) such other information as Cambridge Acceptance shall request.

Following execution of the applicable Required Documents and subsequent delivery of the applicable Vehicle, Dealer shall promptly forward the original copies of the Assignment and the Required Documents to Cambridge Acceptance.

Conditions Precedent to Purchase. If Cambridge Acceptance provides an Approval to purchase a Contract, such offer, and Cambridge Acceptance’s obligation to pay Dealer for such Contract, is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) the Contract is on a form pre-approved by Cambridge Acceptance in writing, (ii) Cambridge Acceptance’s receipt of the original copy of such Contract, all Required Documents for that Contract and, if applicable, proof of satisfaction of any stipulation(s) specified and/or required by Cambridge Acceptance, (iii) Cambridge Acceptance’s satisfaction, in its reasonable discretion, that such Contract and Required Documents are properly completed and executed, and that the requirements and stipulations for such Contract have been met, (iv) each of Dealer’s Representations (defined below) are true and correct as of the Purchase Date (defined below) for that Contract, (v) Dealer is not then in default of this Agreement, without giving effect to any required notice and/or cure period, (vi) Dealer has complied with Down Payment Requirement (defined below) on that Contract, (vii) the financial institution for the applicable Borrower under that Contract has been finally debited for the Down Payment (defined below) paid by such Borrower, (viii) no Incapacitation or Intervening Event shall have occurred or be continuing, and (ix) Dealer shall have filed and recorded all documents necessary to properly perfect Cambridge Acceptance’s valid and enforceable first-priority security interest in the Vehicle purchased under such Contract (the “Perfection Documents”) and shall have provided Cambridge Acceptance all filing receipts related thereto (collectively, the “Conditions Precedent”).

Purchase Price and Payment. Upon satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent, Cambridge Acceptance shall pay the purchase price Cambridge Acceptance specified in its Approval for that Contract. Cambridge Acceptance shall return to Dealer copies of any Contract and its related Required Documents and Assignment that were delivered to Cambridge Acceptance if the Conditions Precedent for any Contract have not been satisfied within thirty (30) days following Cambridge Acceptance’s receipt of such Contract, Required Documents, and Assignment.

Non-Recourse; Exceptions. Contracts assigned by Dealer to Cambridge Acceptance pursuant to this Agreement are done so without recourse, except for those Assigned Contracts subject to Repurchase (defined below) and as may be set forth in any Approval.

Perfection of Security Interest. For each Assigned Vehicle, Dealer shall (a) complete the Perfection Documents for that Assigned Vehicle, (b) record the Perfection Documents for that Assigned Vehicle by the sooner of (i) thirty (30) calendar days after the applicable Assigned Contract’s date, or (ii) any shorter time period required by Law, but in either case, prior to Cambridge Acceptance paying the purchase price for that Assigned Contract, and, unless otherwise instructed by Cambridge Acceptance in writing, Dealer will cause the lienholder on the Certificate of Title or equivalent document (the “Title Document”), for that Assigned Vehicle to be Cambridge Acceptance Corp, and (iii) deliver to Cambridge Acceptance evidence that Cambridge Acceptance’s security interest is noted on the Title Document for such Assigned Vehicle, or evidence that Cambridge Acceptance otherwise has a properly perfected, valid, and enforceable first-priority security interest in such Assigned Vehicle according to Law (collectively, the “Dealer Perfection Obligations”). Dealer is responsible for the perfection and priority of Cambridge Acceptance’s lien in each Assigned Vehicle without regard to where the Assigned Vehicle will be registered or whether the Buyer of such Assigned Vehicle has the ability to perfect that lien personally. Dealer shall Repurchase (defined below) an Assigned Contract as set forth below if, at any time while any amount remains outstanding thereunder, Cambridge Acceptance discovers that (i) Dealer failed to perform any of the Dealer Perfection Obligations, or (ii) Cambridge Acceptance does not have under Law a properly perfected and valid and enforceable first-priority security interest in the applicable Assigned Vehicle (each, a “Perfection Default”).

Down Payment Requirements. With respect to each Assigned Contract, Dealer shall (a) collect all amounts due as a down payment under such Assigned Contract (each a “Down Payment”) in full via check (irrevocably paid funds in Dealer’s financial institution account), cash, or receipt of certified cleared funds in Dealer’s financial institution account through wire or ACH transfer (a “Non-Credit Payment”) prior to Cambridge Acceptance’s payment for that Assigned Contract, and (b) not use any third-party check-guarantee service or similar service with respect to the Non-Credit Payment (collectively, the “Down Payment Requirements”). If any Down Payment is paid by credit card or check drawn on a credit card account, or from funds obtained through any other loan or credit transaction with Dealer or any other person (“Invalid Down Payment”), the Contract under which such Down Payment was made is ineligible for purchase hereunder. If at any time Cambridge Acceptance discovers that any Down Payment under any Assigned Contract (a) did not meet Down Payment Requirements, (b) was an Invalid Down Payment, (c) was returned, reversed, or not paid for any reason (a “Non-Payment”), or (d) was fully or partially provided through Dealer’s assistance or was fully or partially refunded or rebated to any Borrower under such Assigned Contract (collectively, the “Down Payment Repurchase Condition”), that Contract is subject to immediate Repurchase as set forth below. Dealer shall immediately notify Cambridge Acceptance of any Non-Payment.

Payments from Buyer. If Dealer receives any payment under an Assigned Contract, Dealer shall receive such payment in trust and shall remit it to Cambridge Acceptance immediately in the form received for credit to such Assigned Contract. Cambridge Acceptance shall have the sole right to make collections on all Assigned Contracts, and Dealer shall not solicit or make any collections or repossessions with respect to any Assigned Contract, nor accept the return of, nor make any substitution of, any of the Assigned Vehicles purchased pursuant to an Assigned Contract. Additionally, Dealer shall hold in trust and promptly forward to Cambridge Acceptance all communications received in reference to any Assigned Contracts.

Power of Attorney. Dealer authorizes Cambridge Acceptance to sign and endorse Dealer’s name upon (a) any checks, drafts, money orders, or other forms of payment that may come into Cambridge Acceptance’s possession as payment of or on account of any Assigned Contract, (b) any assignment of any Assigned Contract to Cambridge Acceptance, (c) any Assigned Contract if such Contract would otherwise fail for the lack of Dealer’s signature, and (d) any other instrument necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. The power of attorney and grant of specific agency authority above shall be irrevocable and shall remain in effect for so long as there are Assigned Contracts outstanding.

Representations and Warranties. Dealer represents and warrants that the Effective Date Representations and Warranties (“Effective Date Representations”) set forth in the attached Schedule 1 & 2 are true and correct on the Effective Date. With respect to each Assigned Contract, the Down Payment made thereunder, the Vehicle and Additional Products purchased thereunder, the Required Documents related thereto, the Transaction under which such Assigned Contract and related Required Documents were created, and the Buyers and Borrowers thereunder, the Assigned Contract Representations and Warranties (the “Assigned Contract Representations”; and collectively with the Effective Date Statement, the “Representations”) set forth in the attached Schedule 1 & 2, and, with respect to Dealer, the Effective Date Representations, shall be true and correct on the date Cambridge Acceptance purchases such Assigned Contract (each, a “Purchase Date”). Dealer acknowledges that Cambridge Acceptance is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the Representations in entering into this Agreement and purchasing any Contract, even if Cambridge Acceptance was aware that any Representation was inaccurate at that time made.
