Eligible Collateral: Private passenger vehicles, four wheel autos, vans, pick-ups or light trucks not to exceed 1 ton load capacity. Vehicles used for Taxi, Limousine or Shuttle Service are excluded. GAP Amount: The difference between the Primary Insurance carrier s physical damage insurance payment for a theft or total loss, or if uninsured, the collateral s Actual Cash Value, and the Unpaid Net Balance of the Contract. GAP Amount waived shall not exceed $4, Total Loss or Constructive Total Loss: Means a loss where the cost to repair or replace the collateral would exceed the Actual Cash Value as determined by the Primary Insurance carrier or designated appraiser. Unrecovered Theft: The covered collateral has been reported stolen by me to both the police and Primary Insurance carrier, who have made every effort yet have failed, to find and return the covered collateral. Actual Cash Value: The amount determined by the Primary Insurance carrier at the time of loss as the value of the vehicle. However, if there is no Primary Insurance at the time of a loss, Actual Cash Value shall mean the retail value of the collateral using the Kelley Blue Book, with appropriate adjustments for mileage and optional equipment. Primary Insurance: The in-force insurance coverage, required by Lobel Financial, and carried by me to protect the covered collateral from collision and comprehensive loss, naming Lobel Financial as Lienholder. Unpaid Net Balance: The amount owed by me to payoff the outstanding installment sales contract, as of the date of loss. Unpaid Net Balance includes the unearned finance charge rebates, unearned insurance premium rebate and service contract rebate, if any. Delinquent Payments: Any payment that is past due as described in the Contract. Late Charges: Any late charge posted to the customer account connected to the Contract.

GAP: Means an agreement structured as a contractual term that relieves the consumer (me) of liability for the deficiency balance remaining after the payment of all insurance proceeds for property damage upon the Total Loss of the consumer's (my) automobile whether the loss occurred from the total destruction of the vehicle, the theft of the vehicle, or both. 2

3 TERMS AND CONDITIONS In consideration for the GAP fee, Lobel Financial will waive the GAP Amount due to a Total Loss, Constructive Total Loss, or Unrecovered Theft to Eligible Collateral noted herein. Lobel Financial s maximum waiver shall be the GAP Amount, including, if the collateral is protected by Primary Insurance, up to $500 for the Primary Insurance deductible. If the collateral is not protected by Primary Insurance, Lobel Financial will waive only the GAP Amount by subtracting the Actual Cash Value of the Eligible Collateral from the Unpaid Net Balance and I will remain responsible for the Actual Cash Value of the collateral. The calculation of the GAP Amount is the Unpaid Net Balance less the Primary Insurance carrier s settlement up to a $500 deductible (if there is no primary coverage at time of loss it is less the Actual Cash Value) less Delinquent Payments, Late Charges, Repossession and Miscellaneous Fees. If I purchase GAP and I don't purchase insurance, or I purchase insurance and it lapses and Lobel Financial adds its Loss Damage Waiver and a Total Loss occurs and my Loss Damage Waiver is in force, Lobel Financial will waive my deductible and I will owe no money and my Contract will be deemed paid in full. However, should a Total Loss occur and my Loss Damage Waiver claim has been denied for any reason, my GAP coverage will apply and I will owe the amount as outlined in this GAP Waiver Agreement.
