(b)The Servicer shall establish the Lockbox Account in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the Trustee for the further benefit of the Securityholders.  Pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, the Trustee has authorized the Servicer to direct dispositions of funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account to the Collection Account (but not to any other account), and no other Person, except the Lockbox Processor and the Trustee, has authority to direct the disposition of funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account.  The Lockbox Agreement shall provide that Lockbox Banks will comply with the instructions originated by the Trustee relating to the disposition of funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account.  The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility with respect to the Lockbox Processor’s directions or activities as set forth in the preceding sentence.  The Lockbox Account shall be established pursuant to and maintained in accordance with the Lockbox Agreement and shall be a demand deposit account established and maintained with the Lockbox Bank; provided, however, that the Trustee shall give the Servicer prior written notice of any change made in the location of the Lockbox Account.  The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Post Office Box at a United States Post Office Branch in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the Securityholders.

(d)In the event CPS shall for any reason no longer be acting as the Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer or a successor Servicer shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the outgoing Servicer under the Lockbox Agreement arising from and after such assumption.  In such event, the successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the outgoing Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the outgoing Servicer as a party to the Lockbox Agreement to the same extent as if such Lockbox Agreement had been assigned to the successor Servicer, except that the outgoing Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations on the part of the outgoing Servicer to the Lockbox Bank under such Lockbox Agreement.  The outgoing Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the expense of the outgoing Servicer, deliver to the successor Servicer all documents and records relating to the Lockbox Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held by the Lockbox Bank and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient termination of any Lockbox Agreement and transition of Obligor payments to the successor Servicer or to a lockbox established by the successor Servicer for the receipt of payments made in respect of the Receivables.  The outgoing Servicer, at its expense, shall cause the Lockbox Bank to deliver to the successor Servicer or a successor Lockbox Bank, all documents and records relating to the Receivables and all amounts held (or thereafter received) by the Lockbox Bank (together with an accounting of such amounts).  The outgoing Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Rating Agency of any change or transfer of the Lockbox arrangements.

(b)Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer may use its best efforts to locate a third party purchaser that is not affiliated with the Servicer, the Seller or the Issuer to purchase from the Issuer any Receivable that has become more than 120 days delinquent, and shall have the right to direct the Issuer to sell any such Receivable to such third-party purchaser; provided, that no more than 20% of the number of Receivables in the pool as of the Cutoff Date may be sold by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 4.3(b) in the aggregate; provided further, that the Servicer may elect to not direct the Issuer to sell a Receivable that has become more than 120 days delinquent if in its good faith judgment the Servicer determines that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to such Receivable would be increased by forbearance. In selecting Receivables to be sold to a third party purchaser pursuant to this Section 4.3(b), the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate purchasers for the most delinquent Receivables first.  In any event, the Servicer shall not use any procedure in selecting Receivables to be sold to third party purchasers that is materially adverse to the interest of the Securityholders. The Issuer shall sell each Sold Receivable for the greatest market price possible; provided, however, that aggregate Sale Amounts received by the Issuer for all Receivables sold to a single third-party purchaser on a single date must be at least equal to the sum of the Minimum Sale Prices for all such Receivables.

(b) To the extent applicable, the Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any of the insurance policies referred to in Section 4.4(a) which, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder.

Each Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Note, will be deemed to have consented to the provisions of Sections 5.7 and 5.8 relating to the priority of payments, and will be further deemed to have acknowledged that no property rights in any amount or the proceeds of any such amount shall vest in such Noteholder until such amounts have been distributed to such Noteholder pursuant to such provisions; provided, that the foregoing shall not restrict the right of any Noteholder, upon compliance with the provisions hereof from seeking to compel the performance of the provisions hereof by the parties hereto.
