(iv) Lawful Assignment.

Such Receivable is assignable without notice to or the consent of the related Obligor.

(d) Repurchase of Receivables. In the event of

(A) a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.1(c) hereof with respect to any Receivable, that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders taken as a whole (a “Repurchase Event”), unless the breach shall have been cured within thirty (30) days following (i) discovery of the breach by the Seller or receipt of notice of such breach by the Seller from the Purchaser, the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust (which notice shall provide sufficient detail so as to allow the Seller to reasonably investigate the alleged breach), or (ii) in the case of the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, a Responsible Officer of such trustee has actual knowledge or receives written notice of a breach of such representation or warranty, then

(B) the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable from the Grantor Trust (if the Grantor Trust is then the owner of such Receivable) on the date and for the amount specified in the Receivables Transfer Agreement, in each case, without further notice from the Purchaser hereunder. Any such breach shall be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders taken as a whole, if such breach does not affect the ability of the Purchaser (or its assignee) to receive and retain timely payment in full on such Receivable. Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event with respect to a Receivable for which the Purchaser is the owner, the Seller agrees to repurchase such Receivable from the Purchaser for an amount and upon the same terms as the Seller would be obligated to repurchase such Receivable from the Grantor Trust if the Grantor Trust was then the owner thereof, and upon payment of such amount, the Seller shall have such rights with respect to such Receivable as if the Seller had purchased such Receivable from the Grantor Trust as the owner thereof. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Receivable as to which a Repurchase Event has occurred and is continuing shall, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the sole and exclusive remedy (other than any indemnities available pursuant to Section 4.13) available to the Purchaser, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee and the Financial Parties for the breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.1(b) and Section 3.1(c) hereof with respect to such Receivable.

(e) Upon receipt by the then-current owner of the related Receivable of the applicable Purchase Amount, the applicable Receivable and any and all related First Step Transferred Property shall be automatically and immediately assigned and re-conveyed by the Purchaser (or its applicable assign, as the case may be) to the Seller.

(g) The Seller agrees to cooperate with the Grantor Trust and the Requesting Party in any dispute resolution proceeding pursuant to, and be bound by the dispute resolution terms in Section 3.1(d) of the Receivables Transfer Agreement as if they were part of this Agreement.
