(viii)

Security Interest in Financed Vehicles. Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and transfer thereof pursuant hereto, each Receivable shall be secured by a validly perfected first priority security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Seller as secured party or all necessary and appropriate action with respect to such Receivable shall have been taken to perfect a first priority security interest in such Financed Vehicle in favor of the Seller as secured party.

(ix)

Receivables in Force. No Receivable shall have been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor shall any Financed Vehicle have been released in whole or in part from the lien granted by the related Receivable.

(x)

No Waivers. No provision of a Receivable shall have been waived in such a manner that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

(xi)

No Amendments. No Receivable shall have been amended or modified in such a manner that the total number of Scheduled Payments has been increased or that the related Amount Financed has been increased or that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

(xii)

No Defenses. No facts shall be known to the Seller which would give rise to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, nor shall the same have been asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable.

(xiii)

No Liens.

(xv)

Insurance. The terms of each Receivable require the Obligor to obtain and maintain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle in accordance with the Seller’s normal requirements. The terms of each Receivable allow, but do not require the Seller to (and the Seller, in accordance with its current normal servicing procedures, does not) obtain any such coverage on behalf of the Obligor. No Receivable is subject to a force-placed Insurance Policy on the related Financed Vehicle.

(xvi)

Good Title. It is the intention of the Seller that the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, taken as a whole, constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Purchaser and that the beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not be part of the debtor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law.

(xvii)

Lawful Assignment. No Receivable shall have been originated in, or shall be subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer and assignment of such Receivable under this Agreement or pursuant to transfers of the related certificates of title shall be unlawful, void or voidable.

(xviii)

All Filings Made. As of the Closing Date, all filings (including UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to provide third parties with notice of the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, to perfect the sale of the receivables from the Seller to the Purchaser and to give the Purchaser a first priority perfected security interest in the Receivables shall have been made, and to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected security interest therein.

(xix)

Priority. The Receivable is not pledged, assigned, sold, subject to a security interest, or otherwise conveyed other than pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against TMCC or the Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to security interests granted under the Basic Documents or that have been terminated. The Sale and Servicing Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest in the Receivable in favor of the Issuer which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such against all other creditors of and purchasers and assignees from the Seller.

(xx)

One Original or Authoritative Copy. There is only one original executed copy of each “tangible record” constituting or forming a part of each Receivable that is tangible chattel paper fully executed by the related Obligor, or a single “authoritative copy” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) of each electronic record constituting or forming a part of each Receivable in the form of electronic chattel paper. Such “authoritative copy” of each Receivable in the form of electronic chattel paper consists of a copy or image stored in an electronic medium of the original executed copy of the Receivable in the form of tangible chattel paper that had been executed by the related Obligor, that had been delivered to the Seller before conversion to an electronic record, and that identifies the Seller as the secured party under such Receivable or as the assignee of the secured party under such Receivable. No copies or revisions that change the Seller’s identification as the secured party or the assignee of the secured party can be made without the participation of the Seller. Either (i) there are no copies of the authoritative copy of any Receivable in the form of electronic chattel paper or (ii) every copy of the authoritative copy and every copy of a copy is readily identifiable as a copy that is not the authoritative copy of the Receivable in the form of electronic chattel paper. No revision of the authoritative copy of the Receivable in the form of electronic chattel paper can be made unless such revision is readily identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision. After the creation and designation of the electronic record evidencing the Receivable as the authoritative copy, the tangible record evidencing the Receivable was destroyed and, pending such destruction, was marked or maintained in such a manner as to indicate that such tangible record is not an authoritative copy of the Receivable

(xxi)

Chattel Paper. Each Receivable constitutes “chattel paper” that is in the form of either “tangible chattel paper” or “electronic chattel paper” as such terms are defined in the UCC.

(xxii)

Additional Representations and Warranties. (A) Each Receivable shall have an original number of Scheduled Payments of not less than [__] nor more than [__] and, as of the Cutoff Date, a remaining number of Scheduled Payments of not less than [__] nor more than [__]; (B) each Receivable provides for the payment of a finance charge based on an APR ranging from [___]% to [___]%; (C) each Receivable shall have, as of the Cutoff Date, an unpaid principal balance of not less than $[____] nor more than $[____]; and (D) each Receivable is being serviced primarily by Toyota Motor Credit Corporation; each Receivable is secured by a new or used automobile or light duty truck; (vi) no Receivable was more than 30 days past due as of the Cut-Off Date; (vii) as of the Cut-Off Date, no Receivable was noted in the records of the TMCC or the Servicer as being the subject of any pending bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding; and (viii) each of the Receivables were selected using selection procedures that were not known or intended by TMCC or the Servicer to be adverse to the Issuer; (ix) each Receivable is calculated with the Simple Interest Method.

(b)

Notice of Breach. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section shall speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Purchaser and any subsequent assignment or transfer pursuant to Article Two of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser or the Seller, or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other party promptly, in writing, upon discovery of any breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to this Section which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in any Receivable.

SECTION 2.04.

Repurchase of Receivables. In the event of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.03(a) which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in any Receivable, unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable by the last day of the second Collection Period following the Collection Period in which the discovery of the breach is made or notice is received, as the case may be (or, at the option of the Seller, the last day in the first Collection Period following the Collection Period in which such discovery is made or such notice received). This repurchase obligation shall obtain for all representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 2.03(a) of this Agreement whether or not the Seller has knowledge of the breach at the time of the breach or at the time the representations and warranties were made. In consideration of the purchase of any such Receivable, the Seller shall remit an amount equal to the Warranty Purchase Payment in respect of such Receivable to the Purchaser. Except as described below, the sole remedy of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) with respect to a breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to this Agreement shall be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivable pursuant to this Section.
