Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 311 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Notes of a class are not to be originally issued at one time, it will not be necessary to deliver the Issuer Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 311 or the Issuer Certificate and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or before the time of authentication of each Note of such tranche if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Note of such class to be issued.

SECTION 103. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, one or more specified Persons, one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to the other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless the Issuer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual

matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by the Issuer stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

SECTION 104. Acts of Noteholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action (collectively, “action”) provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders of any series, class or tranche may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein or therein otherwise expressly provided, such action will become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent will be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 801) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness to such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership, on behalf of such corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit will also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) If the Issuer will solicit from the Holders any action, the Issuer may, at its option, by an Issuer Certificate, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such action, but the Issuer will have no obligation to do so. If the Issuer does not so fix a record date, such record date will be the later of 30 days before the first solicitation of such action or the date of the most recent list of Noteholders furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 901 before such solicitation. Such action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on the record date will be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Notes Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such action, and for that purpose the Notes Outstanding will be computed as of the record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on the record date will be deemed effective unless it will become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

(e) Any action by the Holder of any Note will bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

SECTION 105. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Issuer. Any action of Noteholders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(a) the Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer will be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or

(b) the Issuer by the Trustee or by any Noteholder will be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (except as provided in Section 701(c)) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Issuer addressed to it at the address of its principal office or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Issuer.

SECTION 106. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. (a) Where this Indenture or any Note provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice will be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein or in such Note expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Note affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Noteholders will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders. Where this Indenture or any Note provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver will be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders will be filed with the Trustee, but such filing will not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

(b) In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or otherwise, it will be impractical to mail notice of any event to any Holder of a Note when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any method of notification as will be satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer will be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

(d) With respect to any tranche of Notes, the applicable terms document may specify different or additional means of giving notice to the Holders of the Notes of such tranche.

SECTION 107. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by, or with another provision (an “incorporated provision”) included in this Indenture by operation of, Sections 310 to 318, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties or incorporated provision will control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision will be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or excluded, as the case may be.

SECTION 108. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and will not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 109. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer will bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 110. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes will be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 111. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in any Notes, express or implied, will give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Authenticating Agent or Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, Derivative Counterparties (to the extent specified in the applicable Derivative Agreement) and the Holders of Notes (or such of them as may be affected thereby), any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

SECTION 112. Governing Law. This Indenture will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 113. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts will together constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 114. Interest Period Convention. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, interest for any period will be calculated from and including the first day of such period, to but excluding the last day of such period.

SECTION 115. Indenture Referred to in the Trust Agreement. This is the Indenture referred to in the Trust Agreement.

SECTION 204. Notes Issuable in the Form of a Global Note. (a) If the Issuer establishes pursuant to Sections 202 and 301 that the Notes of a particular series, class or tranche are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes, then the Issuer will execute and the Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 303 and the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Trustee or its agent thereunder, authenticate and deliver, such Global Note or Notes, which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable terms document (i) will represent, and will be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate stated principal amount (or in the case of Discount Notes, the aggregate stated principal amount at the Expected Principal Payment Date of such Notes) of, the Outstanding Notes of such series, class or tranche to be represented by such Global Note or Notes, or such portion thereof as the Issuer will specify in an Issuer Certificate, (ii) will be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Note or Notes or its nominee, (iii) will be delivered by the Trustee or its agent to the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instruction, (iv) if applicable, will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to the Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any note issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein” and (v) may bear such other legend as the Issuer, upon advice of counsel, deems to be applicable.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 204 or of Section 305, and subject to the provisions of clause (c) below, unless the terms of a Global Note or the applicable terms document expressly permit such Global Note to be exchanged in whole or in part for individual Notes, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 305, only to a nominee of the Depository for such Global Note, or to the Depository, or a successor Depository for such Global Note selected or approved by the Issuer, or to a nominee of such successor Depository.

(c) With respect to Notes issued within the United States, unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, or with respect to Notes issued outside the United States, if specified in the applicable terms document:

(i) If at any time the Depository for a Global Note notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository for the Notes for such series, class or tranche ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Issuer will appoint a successor Depository with respect to such Global Note. If a successor Depository for such Global Note is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee or its agent, upon receipt of an Issuer Certificate requesting the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such series, class or tranche in exchange for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver, individual Notes of such series, class or tranche of like tenor and terms in an aggregate stated principal amount equal to the stated principal amount of the Global Note in exchange for such Global Note.

(ii) The Issuer may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Notes of any series, class or tranche or portion thereof issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Notes will no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In such event the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Certificate requesting the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such series, class or tranche in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver individual Notes of such series, class or tranche of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal stated amount equal to the stated principal amount of such Global Note or Notes representing such series, class or tranche or portion thereof in exchange for such Global Note or Notes.

(iii) If specified by the Issuer pursuant to Sections 202 and 301 with respect to Notes issued or issuable in the form of a Global Note, the Depository for such Global Note may surrender such Global Note in exchange in whole or in part for individual Notes of such series, class or tranche of like tenor and terms in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to the Issuer and such Depository. Thereupon the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee or its agent will authenticate and deliver, without service charge, (A) to each Person specified by such Depository a new Note or Notes of the same series, class or tranche of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate stated principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Note; and (B) to such Depository a new Global Note of like tenor and terms and in an authorized denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the stated principal amount of the surrendered Global Note and the aggregate stated principal amount of Notes delivered to the Holders thereof. If any Event of Default has occurred with respect to such Global Notes, and Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 50% of the unpaid Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Global Notes of that tranche advise the Trustee and the Depository that a Global Note is no longer in the best interest of the Noteholders, the Holders of Global Notes may exchange such Notes for individual Notes.

(iv) In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three paragraphs, the Issuer will execute and the Trustee or its agent will authenticate and deliver individual Notes in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire stated principal amount of a Global Note for individual Notes, such Global Note will be canceled by the Trustee or its agent. Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs, Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this Section will be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository for such Global Note, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, will instruct the Trustee or the Note Registrar. The Trustee or the Note Registrar will deliver such Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.

SECTION 205. Temporary Global Notes and Permanent Global Notes. (a) If specified in the applicable terms document for any tranche, all or any portion of a Global Note may initially be issued in the form of a single temporary Global Note (the “Temporary Global Note”), without interest coupons, in the denomination of the entire aggregate principal amount of such tranche and substantially in the form set forth in the exhibit with respect thereto attached to the applicable terms document. The Temporary Global Note will be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same

conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same effect as the Notes in definitive form. The Temporary Global Note may be exchanged as described below or in the applicable terms document for permanent global Notes (the “Permanent Global Notes”).

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable terms document, exchanges of beneficial interests in Temporary Global Notes for beneficial interests in Permanent Global Notes will be made as provided in this clause. The Manager will, upon its determination of the date of completion of the distribution of the Notes of such tranche, so advise the Trustee, the Issuer, the Foreign Depository, and each foreign clearing agency forthwith. Without unnecessary delay, but in any event not prior to the Exchange Date, the Issuer will execute and deliver to the Trustee at its London office or its designated agent outside the United States Permanent Global Notes in registered form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the entire aggregate principal amount of such tranche. The Temporary Global Note may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Permanent Global Notes only on or after the Exchange Date. A United States Person may exchange the portion of the Temporary Global Note beneficially owned by it only for an equal aggregate principal amount of Permanent Global Notes in registered form bearing the applicable legend set forth in the form of Note attached to the applicable terms document and having a minimum denomination of $500,000, which may be in temporary form if the Issuer so elects. The Issuer may waive the $500,000 minimum denomination requirement if it so elects. Upon any demand for exchange for Permanent Global Notes in accordance with this clause, the Issuer will cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver the Permanent Global Notes to the Holder according to the instructions of the Holder, but only upon presentation to the Trustee of a written statement substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 (or such other form as the Issuer may determine) with respect to the Temporary Global Note or portion thereof being exchanged signed by a foreign clearing agency and dated on the Exchange Date or a subsequent date, to the effect that it has received in writing a certification substantially in the form of (i) in the case of beneficial ownership of the Temporary Global Note or a portion thereof being exchanged by a United States institutional investor pursuant to this clause, the certificate in the form of Exhibit E-2 (or such other form as the Issuer may determine) signed by the Manager which sold the relevant Notes or (ii) in all other cases, any certificate or other form as the Issuer may determine, the certificate or other form referred to in this clause (ii) being dated on the earlier of the first payment of interest in respect of such Note and the date of the delivery of such Note in definitive form. Upon receipt of such certification, the Trustee will cause the Temporary Global Note to be endorsed in accordance with clause (d). Any exchange as provided in this Section will be made free of charge to the Holders and the beneficial owners of the Temporary Global Note and to the beneficial owners of the Permanent Global Note issued in exchange, except that a person receiving the Permanent Global Note must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such Person does not receive such Permanent Global Note in person at the offices of a foreign clearing agency.

(c) The delivery to the Trustee by a foreign clearing agency of any written statement referred to above may be relied upon by the Issuer and the Trustee as conclusive evidence that a corresponding certification or certifications has or have been delivered to such foreign clearing agency pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

(d) Upon any such exchange of all or a portion of the Temporary Global Note for a Permanent Global Note or Notes, such Temporary Global Note will be endorsed by or on behalf of the Trustee to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate

principal amount of such Permanent Global Note or Notes. Until so exchanged in full, such Temporary Global Note will in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Permanent Global Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder except that the beneficial owners of such Temporary Global Note will not be entitled to receive payments of interest on the Notes until they have exchanged their beneficial interests in such Temporary Global Note for Permanent Global Notes.

SECTION 206. Beneficial Ownership of Global Notes. Until definitive Notes have been issued to the applicable Noteholders pursuant to Section 204 or as otherwise specified in any applicable terms document:

(a) the Issuer and the Trustee may deal with the applicable clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants for all purposes (including the making of distributions) as the authorized representatives of the respective Note Owners; and

(b) the rights of the respective Note Owners will be exercised only through the applicable clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants and will be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the clearing agency and/or the clearing agency’s participants. Pursuant to the operating rules of the applicable clearing agency, unless and until Notes in definitive form are issued pursuant to Section 204, the clearing agency will make book-entry transfers among the clearing agency’s participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related Notes to such clearing agency’s participants.

For purposes of any provision of this Indenture requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Noteholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Outstanding Notes, such direction or consent may be given by Note Owners (acting through the clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants) owning interests in Notes evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount of Notes.

SECTION 207. Notices to Depository. Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given to Noteholders with respect to which book-entry Notes have been issued, unless and until Notes in definitive form will have been issued to the related Note Owners, the Trustee will give all such notices and communications to the applicable Depository.

(b) The Notes may be issued in one or more series, classes or tranches up to an aggregate stated principal amount of Notes as from time to time may be authorized by the Issuer. All Notes of each series, class or tranche under this Indenture will in all respects be equally and ratably entitled to the benefits hereof with respect to such series, class or tranche without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time of the authentication and delivery or Expected Principal Payment Date or Legal Maturity Date of the Notes of such series, class or tranche, except as specified in the applicable terms document for such series, class or tranche.

(c) Each Note issued must be assigned to a group of Notes for purposes of allocations pursuant to Article V.

As specified in Article V, Notes belonging to Class A in any series are entitled to specified payment priorities over Class B and Class C Notes in that series. Notes belonging to Class B in any series are entitled to specified payment priorities over Class C Notes in that series. Class C Notes have the benefit of the Class C Reserve Account. The applicable terms document may provide for more or different classes of Notes.

(f) Notes of a single series that belong to separate classes in that series belong to separate tranches on the basis of the difference in class membership.

(f) Unless otherwise provided in the form of Note for any tranche, all Notes will be dated the date of their authentication.

(g) No Note will be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Note will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 304. Temporary Notes. (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Notes of any tranche, the Issuer may execute, and, upon receipt of the documents required by Section 303, together with an Issuer Certificate, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Issuer may determine, as evidenced by the Issuer’s execution of such Notes.

(b) If temporary Notes of any tranche are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Notes of such tranche to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes of such tranche will be exchangeable for definitive Notes of such tranche upon surrender of the temporary Notes of such tranche at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder; and upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver in

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ANY STATE BLUE SKY OR SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS. THE TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO HEREIN.”

In the event that registration of a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act, the transferor or the transferee will deliver, at its expense, to the Issuer and the Trustee, an investment letter from the transferee, substantially in the form of the investment letter attached hereto as Exhibit D or such other form as the Issuer may determine, and no registration of transfer will be made until such letter is so delivered.

Notes issued upon registration or transfer of, or Notes issued in exchange for, Notes bearing the legend referred to above will also bear such legend unless the Issuer, the Trustee and the Note Registrar receive an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to each of them, to the effect that such legend may be removed.

Whenever a Note containing the legend referred to above is presented to the Note Registrar for registration of transfer, the Note Registrar will promptly seek instructions from the Issuer regarding such transfer and will be entitled to receive an Issuer’s Certificate prior to registering any such transfer.

(b) In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

(c) Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

(d) Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note will constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note will be at any time enforceable by anyone, and will be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture that such destroyed, lost or stolen Note was entitled equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of the same series, class or tranche duly issued hereunder.

The Issuer, the Trustee, the Issuer Trustee, the Beneficiaries and any agent of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Issuer Trustee, or the Beneficiaries may treat the Person who is proved to be the owner of such Note pursuant to Section 104(c) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Issuer Trustee, the Beneficiaries nor any agent of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Issuer Trustee or the Beneficiaries will be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 309. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange will, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already canceled, will be promptly canceled by it.

(b) All funds deposited from time to time in the Accounts pursuant to this Indenture and all investments made with such funds will be held by the Trustee in the Accounts as part of the Collateral as herein provided, subject to withdrawal by the Trustee for the purposes set forth herein. The Issuer will not direct the Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in the Accounts unless the security interest granted and perfected in such Accounts will continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further action by the Issuer or the Trustee.

(c) Funds and other property in any of the Accounts will not be commingled with any other funds or property of the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may hold any funds or other property received or held by it as part of the Accounts in collecting accounts maintained by it in the normal course of its business and containing funds held by it for other Persons (which may include the Issuer or an Affiliate thereof), provided that such accounts are under the sole control of the Trustee and the Trustee maintains adequate records indicating the ownership of all such funds or property and the portions thereof held for credit to the applicable Accounts.

(d) The Issuer will not direct the Trustee to make any investment of any funds in any of the Accounts or to sell any investment held in such Accounts except under the following terms and conditions:

(i) each such investment will be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee under its complete and exclusive dominion and control (or, if, as indicated by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee, applicable law provides for perfection of pledges of an instrument not evidenced by a certificate or other instrument through registration of such pledge on books maintained by or on behalf of the issuer of such investment, such pledge may be so registered);

(ii) the Trustee will have sole control over such investment, the income thereon and the proceeds thereof;

(iii) other than the investments described in clause (i), any certificate or other instrument evidencing such investment will be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent; and

(iv) the proceeds of each sale of such an investment will be remitted by the purchaser thereof directly to the Trustee for deposit in the Account in which such investment was held.

(e) All income or other gain from investments of funds on deposit in the Accounts (other than the Principal Funding Account) will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2). Any loss resulting from such investments will be charged to the sub-Accounts pro rata based on the amount on deposit in such sub-Account.

The Issuer may use weighted averaging or any other reasonable method for allocating losses among such sub-Accounts. Subject to Section 801(c), the Trustee will not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such sub-Accounts resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms.

(f) All income or other gain from investments of funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account will be applied as set forth in Section 506.

(g) Funds on deposit in the Accounts will be invested and reinvested by the Trustee to the fullest extent practicable, in such manner as the Trustee will from time to time determine, but only in one or more Eligible Investments, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i) the Issuer will have failed to give investment directions to the Trustee; or

(ii) an Event of Default will have occurred and is continuing but no Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 702.

SECTION 404. Excess Funds in the Interest Funding sub-Accounts or Principal Funding sub-Accounts. (a) With respect to any Due Period, if the Issuer determines that the amount on deposit in any Interest Funding sub-Account (after giving effect to all deposits and withdrawals to be made with respect to such Due Period) is greater than the amount targeted to be on deposit in such Interest Funding sub-Account with respect to such Due Period (subject to Section 507(e)), such excess will be withdrawn from such sub-Account and treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

(b) With respect to any Due Period, if the Issuer determines that the amount on deposit in any Principal Funding sub-Account (after giving effect to all deposits and withdrawals to be made with respect to that Due Period) is greater than the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of a tranche of Notes less the Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit of that tranche, that excess will be withdrawn from such sub-Account and treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

SECTION 501. Allocations of Finance Charge Collections. With respect to each Due Period, the Trustee will allocate or cause to be allocated (1) Finance Charge Collections received by the Issuer with respect to that Due Period, and (2) amounts to be treated as Finance Charge Collections (including pursuant to Sections 403(e), 404(a) and (b), 506(d), 507(f), 511(f), 519(c), 523(j) and 527(c)) in the following priority:

(b) second, to make the targeted deposits to the Interest Funding Account pursuant to Section 503;

(c) third, to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate or reimburse any Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit pursuant to Section 527;

(d) fourth, to make the targeted deposit to the Class C Reserve Account, if any, pursuant to Section 518(a);

(e) fifth, to make any other payment or deposit required by the terms document of any series, class or tranche of Notes; and

(f) sixth, to the Issuer.

SECTION 502. Allocations of Principal Collections. With respect to each Due Period, the Trustee will allocate or cause to be allocated (1) Principal Collections received by the Issuer with respect to that Due Period, and (2) amounts to be treated as Principal Collections (including pursuant to Section 511(d)) in the following priority:

(a) first, with respect to each Due Period,

(i) first, if after giving effect to deposits to be made with respect to such Due Period pursuant to Section 501(b), any tranche of Class A Notes or Class B Notes of a series has not received the full amount targeted to be deposited pursuant to Section 503 with respect to that Due Period, then from (A) such Principal Collections and amounts to be treated as Principal Collections, to the extent the reallocation thereof under this clause (a) will result in the reduction of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of tranches of Class C Notes of that series, together with (B) Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Account of tranches of Class C Notes of that series as of the last day of that Due Period, the following amounts will be allocated in the following priority:

(1) first, in an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such funds and the amount of the deficiency in the targeted amount to be deposited into the Interest Funding sub-Account of each tranche of Class A Notes of that series, to be allocated to the Interest Funding sub-Accounts of Class A Notes of that series pro rata based on the amount of such deficiencies; and

(2) second, in an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such funds (after giving effect to clause (1)) and the amount of the deficiency in the targeted amount to be deposited into the Interest Funding sub-Account of each tranche of Class B Notes of that series, to be allocated to the Interest Funding sub-Accounts of Class B Notes of that series pro rata based on the amount of such deficiencies;

provided, however, that such reallocations will be subject to the limits of Sections 512, 513 and 514.

(ii) second, with respect to each Due Period, if after giving effect to deposits to be made with respect to such Due Period pursuant to Section 501(b) and clause (a)(i), any tranche of Class A Notes of a series has not received the full amount targeted to be deposited pursuant to Section 503, then from (A) such Principal Collections and amounts to be treated as Principal Collections, to the extent the reallocation thereof under this clause (a) will result in the reduction of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of tranches of Class B Notes of that series, together with (B) Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Account of tranches of Class B Notes of that series as of the last day of that Due Period, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such funds and the amount of the deficiency in the targeted amount to the Interest Funding sub-Account of each tranche of Class A Notes of that series, will be reallocated to the Interest Funding sub-Accounts of Class A Notes of that series pro rata based on the amount of such deficiencies; provided, however, that such reallocations will be subject to the limits of Sections 512, 513 and 514.

(b) second, together with amounts available pursuant to Section 523(e), to make the targeted deposits to the Principal Funding Account pursuant to Section 508; and

(c) third, together with any remaining amounts available pursuant to Section 523(e), to the Master Trust, to be reinvested in the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 520(c).

SECTION 503. Targeted Deposits of Finance Charge Collections to the Interest Funding Account. The aggregate amount of Finance Charge Collections targeted to be deposited into the Interest Funding Account pursuant to Section 501(b) with respect to each Due Period (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) is equal to the sum of the following amounts. A single tranche of Notes may be entitled to more than one of the following targeted deposits with respect to any Due Period. The targeted deposit with respect to any Due Period will also include any shortfall in the targeted deposit with respect to any prior Due Period. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document:

(a) Specified Deposits. If the terms document for a tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) specifies deposits in addition to or different from the deposits described below in this Section to be made to the Interest Funding sub-Account for that tranche, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to any Due Period is the specified amount for that Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the dates specified in the applicable terms document.

(b) Interest Payments not Covered by a Derivative Agreement. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document: (i) If a tranche of Outstanding Interest-bearing Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) provides for payments of interest that are not covered by a Derivative Agreement, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to each Due Period will be equal to the amount of interest accrued on the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of that tranche of Notes during the period from the Monthly Interest Date in that Due Period (or the date of issuance of that tranche for the determination with respect to the first Monthly Interest Date) to the first Monthly Interest Date after the end of that Due Period. (ii) If a tranche of Interest-bearing Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a Derivative Agreement that by its terms only covers a portion of the interest on such tranche of Notes (such as an interest rate cap or similar agreement), the deposit targeted under this clause will be the uncapped portion of the interest accrued on the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of that tranche of Notes during that period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits referred to in this clause (b) will be made on each Monthly Interest Date for the applicable tranche.

(c) Notes with Performing Derivative Agreements. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document: (i) If a tranche of Outstanding Dollar Notes or foreign currency Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a Performing Derivative Agreement for interest that provides for monthly payments to the applicable Derivative Counterparty, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to each Due Period is equal to the amount required to be paid to the applicable Derivative Counterparty on the next payment

date under that Derivative Agreement following the end of that Due Period, multiplied by the Adjustment Ratio for that tranche as of the last day of such Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the payment date specified in the applicable Derivative Agreement. (ii) If a tranche of Dollar Notes or foreign currency Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a Performing Derivative Agreement for interest that provides for payments less frequently than monthly to the applicable Derivative Counterparty, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to each Due Period is equal to the amount required to be paid to the Derivative Counterparty on the payment date under that Derivative Agreement next following the end of that Due Period, and allocable to the period from one such Interest Deposit Date (or in the case of the first Interest Deposit Date, from the date of issuance of that tranche of Notes) to the next Interest Deposit Date, taking into account the applicable interest rate and day count convention under that Derivative Agreement, multiplied by the Adjustment Ratio for that tranche as of the last day of such Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the payment date specified in the applicable Derivative Agreement in the month in which payment is scheduled to be made to the Derivative Counterparty, and on the Monthly Interest Date in each other month.

(d) Dollar Notes with non-Performing Derivative Agreements. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, if a tranche of Outstanding Dollar Interest-bearing Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for interest, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to each Due Period will be equal to the amount of interest accrued on the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of that tranche of Notes with respect to that Due Period from the Monthly Interest Date in that Due Period (or the date of issuance of that tranche for the determination with respect to the first Monthly Interest Date) to the first Monthly Interest Date after the end of that Due Period to the extent that such interest would have been covered by that non-Performing Derivative Agreement. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on each Monthly Interest Date for the applicable tranche.

(e) Foreign Currency Notes with non-Performing Derivative Agreements. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document: (i) If a tranche of Outstanding foreign currency Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for interest that provides for monthly payments to the applicable derivative counterparty, then the calculation of the deposit targeted is made with reference to the amount of Dollars that would have been payable to the applicable Derivative Counterparty under the Derivative Agreement with respect to that Due Period if that Derivative Agreement were Performing, multiplied by the Adjustment Ratio for that tranche as of the last day of such Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on each Monthly Interest Date for the applicable tranche. (ii) If a tranche of Outstanding foreign currency Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for interest that provides for payments less frequently than monthly to the applicable Derivative Counterparty, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to each Due Period is equal to the amount required to be paid to the Derivative Counterparty on the payment date under that Derivative Agreement next following the end of that Due Period, and allocable to the period from one such Interest Deposit Date (or in the case of the first

Interest Deposit Date, from the date of issuance of that tranche of Notes) to the next Interest Deposit Date, taking into account the applicable interest rate and day count convention under that Derivative Agreement, multiplied by the Adjustment Ratio for that tranche as of the last day of such Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on each Monthly Interest Date.

(f) Discount Notes. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, in the case of a tranche of Outstanding Discount Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes), the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to any Due Period is equal to the amount of accretion of principal of that tranche of Notes from the Monthly Principal Date in that Due Period (or in the case of the first Monthly Principal Date, from the date of issuance of that tranche) to the first Monthly Principal Date after the end of that Due Period, multiplied by the Adjustment Ratio for that tranche as of the last day of such Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on each Monthly Principal Date for the applicable tranche.

(g) Interest on Overdue Interest. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, the deposit targeted for any tranche of Outstanding Notes for any month that has accrued and overdue interest will be the interest accrued on that overdue interest from and including the Interest Payment Date in that month to but excluding the Interest Payment Date next following that month at the rate of interest applicable to the principal of that tranche during that period.

SECTION 504. Payments Received from Derivative Counterparties for Interest; Other Deposits to the Interest Funding Account. The following deposits and payments will be made to the Interest Funding Account on the following dates:

(a) Payments Received From Derivative Counterparties for Interest. Payments received under Derivative Agreements for interest in Dollars will be deposited into the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account on the date of receipt. Payments received under Derivative Agreements for interest in foreign currencies will be made directly to the applicable Paying Agent for payment to the Holders of the applicable tranche of Notes, or as otherwise specified in the applicable Derivative Agreement or applicable terms document.

(b) Principal Funding Account Earnings. Amounts received pursuant to Section 506(c) for any tranche of Notes will be deposited into the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account on each Monthly Interest Date.

(c) Class C Reserve Account. Withdrawals made from any Class C Reserve sub-Account pursuant to Section 519(a) will be deposited into the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account on the date specified in Section 519(a).

(d) Receivables Sales Proceeds. Receivables Sales Proceeds received by the Issuer pursuant to Section 523(i)(ii) for any tranche of RSP Notes will be deposited into the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account on the date of receipt by the Issuer.

SECTION 505. Allocation of Deposits to Interest Funding sub-Accounts. The aggregate amount of the deposits to be made to the Interest Funding Account pursuant to Section 503 for each Due Period will be allocated, and a portion deposited into the Interest Funding sub-Account for each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes), as follows:

(a) Available Amounts Equal to Targeted Amounts. If the amount of funds available for a Due Period pursuant to Section 501(b) is at least equal to the aggregate amount of the deposits and payments targeted by Section 503, then the full amount of each such deposit and payment will be made.

(b) Available Amounts are Less than Targeted Amounts. (i) If the amount of funds available for a Due Period pursuant to Section 501(b) is less than the aggregate amount of the deposits and payments targeted by Section 503, then the amount available will be allocated to each series of Notes pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of all Notes of that series to the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of all series.

(ii) For all series identified as belonging to “Group 1”, the amounts allocated to the tranches of Notes of those series (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) pursuant to clause (b) (i) will be reaggregated into a single pool, and reallocated to the Interest Funding sub-Account for each series, class or tranche of Notes in Group 1 pro rata based on the amount of the deposit targeted to be made to the applicable Interest Funding sub-Accounts pursuant to Section 503.

(iii) For all series identified as belonging to another group, the reallocation of amounts allocated pursuant to clause (b)(i) will be based on a rule for that group set forth in the applicable terms document.

(c) Other Funds not Reallocated. Funds deposited into any Interest Funding sub-Account pursuant to Sections 502(a), 504, 506 and 523(i)(ii) and funds on deposit from prior Due Periods will not be reallocated to any other Interest Funding sub-Account.

SECTION 506. Deposit of Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings in Interest Funding sub-Accounts; Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings Shortfall. (a) As of the end of each Due Period, the Issuer will calculate

(i) the Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings Target for each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes),

(ii) the Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings for each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes), and

(iii) the Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings Shortfall (if any) for the Principal Funding sub-Account for each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes)

for the period from the Interest Deposit Date in that Due Period (or with respect to the first Interest Deposit Date with respect to that tranche, the date of issuance of that tranche) to the first Interest Deposit Date after the end of that Due Period (for purposes of this Section, a “monthly period”).

(b) If there is any Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings Shortfall for any Principal Funding sub-Account for that monthly period, or any unpaid Principal Funding sub-Account

Earnings Shortfall for any Principal Funding sub-Account from any earlier monthly period, in each case for any tranche of Notes other than a tranche of RSP Notes, the Issuer will notify the Master Trust pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Series 2000 Supplement of that amount.

(c) On each Interest Deposit Date, the Trustee will deposit or cause to be deposited into each applicable Interest Funding sub-Account the following amounts:

(i) the Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings for the related Principal Funding sub-Account for that monthly period, and

(ii) with respect to any tranche of Notes other than a tranche of RSP Notes, the amount received by the Issuer pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Series 2000 Supplement with respect to that Principal Funding sub-Account, if any.

(d) If the amount of Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings for any tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) for any Due Period is greater than the Principal Funding sub-Account Earnings Target for that Due Period, the amount of the excess will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2) or as otherwise provided in the applicable terms document.

SECTION 507. Withdrawals from Interest Funding Account. Withdrawals made pursuant to this Section with respect to any tranche of Notes will be made from the Interest Funding sub-Account established for that tranche only after all allocations and reallocations have been made pursuant to Sections 503, 504, 505 and 506, but in no event more than the amount on deposit in the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account. A single tranche of Notes may be entitled to more than one of the following withdrawals in any month.

(a) Withdrawals for Dollar Notes with no Derivative Agreement for Interest. On each applicable Interest Payment Date (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document) with respect to each tranche of Dollar Notes with no Derivative Agreement for interest, an amount equal to the interest due on the applicable tranche of Notes on the applicable Interest Payment Date (including any overdue interest with respect to prior Interest Payment Dates) will be withdrawn from that Interest Funding sub-Account and remitted to the applicable Paying Agent or as otherwise provided in the applicable terms document.

(b) Withdrawals for Discount Notes. On each applicable Monthly Principal Date, with respect to each tranche of Discount Notes, an amount equal to the amount of the accretion of principal of that tranche of Notes from the prior Monthly Principal Date (or in the case of the first Monthly Principal Date the date of issuance of that tranche) to the applicable Monthly Principal Date (plus any accretions of principal from prior Due Periods for which no withdrawal was made) will be withdrawn from that Interest Funding sub-Account and invested in the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 520(a).

(c) Withdrawals for Notes with Performing Derivative Agreements for Interest. On each date on which a payment is required under the applicable Derivative Agreement (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document) with respect to any tranche of Notes which has a Performing Derivative Agreement for interest, an amount equal to the amount of the payment to be made under the applicable Derivative Agreement (including

any overdue payment) will be withdrawn from that Interest Funding sub-Account and paid to the applicable Derivative Counterparty or as otherwise provided in the applicable terms document.

(d) Withdrawals for Notes with non-Performing Derivative Agreements for Interest in Dollars. On each Interest Payment Date (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document) with respect to a tranche of Dollar Notes that has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for interest, an amount equal to the amount of interest payable on that Interest Payment Date (including any overdue interest with respect to prior Interest Payment Dates) will be withdrawn from that Interest Funding sub-Account and remitted to the applicable Paying Agent or as otherwise provided in the applicable terms document.

(e) Withdrawals for Notes with non-Performing Derivative Agreements for Foreign Currency Interest. On each Interest Payment Date with respect to a tranche of foreign currency Notes that has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for interest (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document), an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of Dollars necessary to be converted at the applicable Spot Exchange Rate to pay the foreign currency interest due (including any overdue interest with respect to prior Interest Payment Dates) on that tranche of Notes on the applicable Interest Payment Date and (ii) the amount that would have been payable to the applicable Derivative Counterparty with respect to that Interest Payment Date if the applicable Derivative Agreement had been Performing (including any overdue payments) will be withdrawn from that sub-Account and converted to the applicable foreign currency at the Spot Exchange Rate and remitted to the applicable Paying Agent. Any excess Dollar amount will be retained on deposit in the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account (subject to clause (f)) to be applied to make interest payments on later Interest Payment Dates.

(f) Treatment as Finance Charge Collections. After payment in full of any tranche of Notes, any amount remaining on deposit in the applicable Interest Funding sub-Account will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

(g) Receivables Sales Proceeds. Receivables Sales Proceeds on deposit in the Interest Funding sub-Account for any tranche of RSP Notes may be withdrawn on any Interest Payment Date (after giving effect to any payment of interest on that tranche on that date) to reimburse the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit of that tranche pursuant to Section 527(g).

If the aggregate amount available for withdrawal from an Interest Funding sub-Account for any tranche of Notes is less than all withdrawals required to be made from that Interest Funding sub-Account for that tranche in a month, then the amounts on deposit will be withdrawn and, if payable to more than one Person, applied pro rata based on the amounts of the withdrawals required to be made.

SECTION 508. Targeted Deposits of Principal Collections to the Principal Funding Account. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document, the amount of the deposit targeted for any tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) with respect to any Due Period to be deposited into the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche will be the sum of (i) the amount determined pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) with respect to such tranche for such Due Period, as applicable, or if more than one such clause is applicable, the highest amount

determined pursuant to any one of such clauses, and (ii) any deposit targeted pursuant to clause (i) with respect to such tranche for any prior Due Period but for which the full targeted deposit was not made, but in no case more than the Nominal Liquidation Amount of such tranche (computed immediately before giving effect to such deposit).

(a) Expected Principal Payment Date. With respect to the Due Period immediately preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date of a tranche of Notes, and each Due Period thereafter, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes is equal to the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche of Notes as of such Expected Principal Payment Date or the following Monthly Principal Date, as the case may be. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the applicable Expected Principal Payment Date and each following Monthly Principal Date.

(b) Budgeted Deposits. (i) Subject to Section 508(d), with respect to each Due Period, beginning with the twelfth full Due Period before the Expected Principal Payment Date of a tranche of Class A Notes but excluding the final Due Period before the Expected Principal Payment Date of that tranche of Class A Notes, the deposit targeted to be made into the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche will be the Controlled Accumulation Amount for that tranche specified in the applicable terms document, or if no amount is specified equal to one-eleventh, in the case of a Single Issuance Series, or one-twelfth, in the case of a Multiple Issuance Series, of the projected Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of that tranche of Notes as of its Expected Principal Payment Date after deducting any amounts already on deposit in the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account. Subject to clause (ii) and unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the Monthly Principal Date next following the end of that Due Period.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (i), and unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, the Issuer may postpone the date of the targeted deposits under clause (i) under the following circumstances:

(A) Immediately before the twelfth full Due Period before the Expected Principal Payment Date for every Class A Note, the Issuer will calculate the minimum monthly principal expected to be paid to all Investor Certificates (including the Collateral Certificate) issued by the Master Trust.

(B) This calculation will be made by multiplying the lowest of the monthly principal payment rates for Principal Receivables during the twelve months preceding the date of calculation by the sum of (1) the aggregate Series Adjusted Invested Amount (as defined in each applicable supplement to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) of each series of Investor Certificates (other than the Collateral Certificate and any series that by its terms is an “excluded series” as specified in the applicable supplement to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and (2) the Series 2000 Adjusted Invested Amount (as defined in the Series 2000 Supplement) of the Collateral Certificate less the Nominal Liquidation Amount of any Notes to the extent that such Notes constitute an Excluded Series pursuant to Section 1112.

(C) Using the minimum monthly principal amount expected to be paid on Principal Receivables, the Issuer will next compare that amount to the Invested Amounts of all Investor Certificates (including the Collateral Certificate, but excluding any Certificates representing Excluded Master Trust Series or series that are partially Excluded Master Trust Series, to the extent of that exclusion) with their expected maturity dates and the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amounts of all tranches of Notes with Expected Principal Payment Dates in the eleven or twelve, as applicable, Due Periods preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date of the tranche of Class A Notes for which the calculation is being performed. If the comparison reveals that the date of the targeted deposits can be postponed for that tranche of Class A Notes (with a corresponding increase in the amount of each deposit targeted) and the Issuer expects to receive Principal Collections adequate to repay that tranche of Class A Notes in full on its Expected Principal Payment Date, then the Issuer may designate a later Due Period (and correspondingly increased Controlled Accumulation Amount) with respect to which deposits to the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche of Class A Notes will begin. The comparison made will assume that the dates required for collection of Principal Collections are postponed to the maximum extent permitted by all Investor Certificates and tranches of Notes.

(c) Prefunding of the Principal Funding Account of Senior Classes. If the Issuer determines as of the end of any Due Period with respect to any Class A Notes or Class B Notes of a series that, after giving effect to all allocations and payments with respect to that Due Period, the Prefunding Target Amount of that class is greater than zero, the targeted deposit to the Principal Funding sub-Accounts for the affected classes of that series will be the Prefunding Target Amount for that series. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the Monthly Principal Date applicable to the Class A Notes or the Class B Notes, as the case may be, next following the end of that Due Period.

(d) Event of Default, Early Redemption Event, Other Optional or Mandatory Redemption. If any tranche of Notes has been accelerated during a Due Period after the occurrence of an Event of Default, or if an Early Redemption Event with respect to any tranche of Notes occurs during such Due Period, or with respect to the Due Period immediately preceding any other date fixed for any other mandatory or optional redemption of any tranche of Notes, the deposit targeted for that tranche of Notes with respect to that Due Period and each following Due Period is equal to the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche of Notes as of the Monthly Principal Date occurring immediately after that Due Period. Unless an earlier date is determined pursuant to Section 522, these deposits will be made on the Monthly Principal Date next following the end of that Due Period.

SECTION 509. Payments Received from Derivative Counterparties for Principal; Other Deposits to Principal Funding Accounts. The following additional amounts will be deposited into the Principal Funding Account on the following dates:

(a) Payments Received from Derivative Counterparties. Payments received under Derivative Agreements for principal in Dollars for any tranche of Notes will be deposited into the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account on the date of receipt. Payments received under Derivative Agreements for principal in foreign currencies for any tranche of Notes will be made directly to the applicable Paying Agent for payment to the Holders of the applicable tranche of Notes, or as otherwise specified in the applicable Derivative Agreement or applicable terms document.

(b) Class C Reserve Account. Withdrawals made from any Class C Reserve sub-Account pursuant to Section 519(b) will be deposited into the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account on the date specified in Section 519(b).

(c) Receivables Sale Proceeds. Receivables Sales Proceeds received pursuant to Section 523(i)(i) for any tranche of RSP Notes will be deposited into the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account on the date of receipt by the Issuer.

(d) Reimbursements of Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits. Any amounts relating to reimbursements of Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits with respect to any tranche of RSP Notes pursuant to Section 527 hereof and pursuant to Section 4.03(b), (c) or (d) of the Series 2000 Supplement will be deposited into the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account on each Monthly Principal Date, or in months with a Principal Payment Date, on the preceding Business Day.

SECTION 510. Reallocations of Funds on Deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Accounts. The aggregate amount of the deposits to be made to the Principal Funding Account for each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) pursuant to Section 508 for each Due Period will be allocated, and a portion deposited in the Principal Funding sub-Account for each tranche of Notes, as follows:

(a) Principal Collections Equal to Targeted Amount. If the aggregate deposit of Principal Collections to the Principal Funding Account is equal to the sum of the deposits of Principal Collections targeted by each tranche of Notes, then that targeted amount is deposited in the Principal Funding sub-Account established for each tranche.

(b) Principal Collections Are Less Than Targeted Amounts. (i) Subject to clause (d), if the amount of Principal Collections on deposit in any Principal Funding sub-Account for a tranche of Class A Notes of a series is less than the sum of the deposits of Principal Collections targeted with respect to that tranche (other than amounts targeted for deposit with respect to an optional redemption of that tranche, to the extent specified in the applicable terms document) pursuant to Section 508, then amounts on deposit in Principal Funding sub-Accounts of Class B Notes and Class C Notes of that series will be reallocated to the Class A Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche of Class A Notes, to be reallocated first from the Class C Principal Funding sub-Accounts in that series and second from Class B Principal Funding sub-Accounts in that series. If more than one tranche of Class A Notes requires a reallocation of amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Accounts of the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes of that series, then the reallocated amounts will be deposited in the Principal Funding sub-Account for each such tranche of Class A Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount of such tranche of Class A Notes, to (B) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation

Amounts of all tranches of Class A Notes of that series that require such reallocations, in each case calculated immediately before giving effect to such reallocations (but not more than the amount of the deposit targeted for such tranche, with any excess to be reallocated among the other tranches of Class A Notes of that series that require reallocations pro rata based on the Nominal Liquidation Amount of those tranches).

(ii) After giving effect to clause (b)(i), and subject to clause (d), if the amount on deposit in any applicable Principal Funding sub-Account for a tranche of Class B Notes of a series is less than the sum of the deposits targeted pursuant to Section 508 with respect to that tranche (other than amounts targeted for deposit with respect to an optional redemption of that tranche, to the extent specified in the applicable terms document), then amounts on deposit in Principal Funding sub-Accounts of the Class C Notes of that series will be reallocated to the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche of Class B Notes. If more than one tranche of Class B Notes requires a reallocation of amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Accounts of the Class C Notes of that series, then the reallocated amounts will be deposited in the Principal Funding sub-Account for each such tranche of Class B Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount of such tranche of Class B Notes, to (B) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amounts of all tranches of Class B Notes of that series that require such reallocations, in each case as calculated immediately before giving effect to such reallocations (but not more than the amount of the deposit targeted for such tranche, with any excess to be reallocated among the other tranches of Class B Notes of that series that require reallocations pro rata based on the Nominal Liquidation Amount of those tranches).

(c) Limitations on Reallocations of Principal Collections. (i) If the Nominal Liquidation Amount of any tranche of Notes of a subordinated class of a series has been reduced pursuant to clauses (b)(v) and (b)(vi) of the definition of Nominal Liquidation Amount and then reimbursed in whole or in part pursuant to clause (b)(iv) of the definition of Nominal Liquidation Amount, the maximum amount that may be reallocated from the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche to the Principal Funding sub-Accounts of any senior class of that series that was Outstanding before the date of such reduction in the Nominal Liquidation Amount is equal to the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche of Notes of the subordinated class, less the cumulative amount of such reductions since the dates that senior class was issued.

(ii) If amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Account for more than one tranche of Notes of a subordinated class of a series are required to be reallocated pursuant to clauses (b)(i) or (b)(ii), amounts will be withdrawn from the Principal Funding sub-Account for each such tranche of subordinated Notes pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche of Notes to the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of all Notes of that class of that series; provided, however, that if any Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit of that tranche has been reimbursed in whole or in part pursuant to clause (b)(iv) of the definition of Nominal Liquidation Amount, for purposes of calculating that ratio for allocating withdrawals of funds deposited into the Principal Funding sub-Account for senior classes of Notes of that series that were Outstanding before the date of such reduction in the Nominal Liquidation Amount, the Nominal Liquidation Amount as used in that ratio will be calculated without giving effect to such reimbursements.

(d) Receivables Sales Proceeds. Receivables Sales Proceeds on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Account for any tranche of Notes (i) will not be reallocated to the Principal Funding sub-Account for any senior class of Notes, and (ii) will be reallocated to be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to, and only to the extent permitted by, Section 513.

(e) Reallocation of Other Funds. Funds deposited into any Principal Funding sub-Account pursuant to Sections 509(a) and (b) will not be reallocated to any other Principal Funding sub-Account pursuant to this Section.

SECTION 511. Withdrawals from Principal Funding Account. Withdrawals made pursuant to this Section with respect to any tranche of Notes will be made from the Principal Funding sub-Accounts established for that tranche only after all allocations and reallocations have been made pursuant to Sections 508, 509 and 510, and reallocated on the same basis until those funds are fully applied. In no event will the amount of the withdrawal be more than the amount on deposit in the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account. A single tranche may be entitled to more than one of the following withdrawals with respect to any Due Period.

(a) Withdrawals for Dollar Notes with no Derivative Agreement for Principal. On each applicable Principal Payment Date (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document) with respect to each tranche of Dollar Notes which has no Derivative Agreement for principal, an amount equal to the principal due on the applicable tranche of Notes on the applicable Principal Payment Date will be withdrawn from that Principal Funding sub-Account and remitted to the applicable Paying Agent or as otherwise provided by the applicable terms document.

(b) Withdrawals for Notes with Performing Derivative Agreements for Principal. On each date on which a payment is to be made under the applicable Derivative Agreement (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document) with respect to any tranche of Notes which has a Performing Derivative Agreement for principal, an amount equal to the amount of the payment to be made under the applicable Derivative Agreement will be withdrawn from that Principal Funding sub-Account and paid to the applicable Derivative Counterparty or as otherwise provided by the applicable terms document. The Issuer will direct the applicable Derivative Counterparty to remit its payments under the applicable Derivative Agreement to the applicable Paying Agent or as otherwise provided by the applicable terms document.

(c) Withdrawals for Foreign Currency Notes with non-Performing Derivative Agreements for Principal. On each Principal Payment Date with respect to a tranche of foreign currency Notes that has a non-Performing Derivative Agreement for principal (or as much earlier as specified in the applicable terms document), an amount equal to the amount of Dollars necessary to be converted at the applicable Spot Exchange Rate to pay the foreign currency principal due on that tranche of Notes on the applicable Principal Payment Date will be withdrawn from that sub-Account and converted to the applicable foreign currency at the Spot Exchange Rate and remitted to the applicable Paying Agent.

(d) Withdrawal of Prefunding Excess Amount. If the Issuer on any date determines as of the end of any Due Period with respect to any class of Class A Notes or Class B Notes of a series that, without giving effect to all allocations and payments with respect to that

Due Period, the Prefunding Excess Amount of that class is greater than zero, that amount will be withdrawn from the Principal Funding sub-Account of that class of Notes and treated as Principal Collections pursuant to Section 502. Such withdrawals will be allocated among the Principal Funding sub-Account of the tranches of Notes of that class so that, after giving effect thereto, no such Principal Funding sub-Account will have an amount on deposit less than the amount then targeted to be on deposit in such Principal Funding sub-Account.

(e) Withdrawal of Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts. Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts reallocated pursuant to Section 502(a) (subject to Section 514) will be withdrawn from the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account on the applicable Monthly Interest Date. Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts payable to the Master Trust pursuant to Section 526(e)(ii) will be withdrawn from the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account as soon as practicable after determination of the amount to be withdrawn and paid to the Master Trust as provided in Section 526.

(f) Treatment as Finance Charge Collections. Upon payment in full of any tranche of Notes, any remaining amount on deposit in the applicable Principal Funding sub-Account will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

SECTION 512. Limit on Reallocations of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts Taken to Benefit Senior Classes of Single Issuance Series. With respect to Single Issuance Series for any Due Period, the aggregate amount of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts reallocated pursuant to Section 502(a) to make deposits pursuant to Section 501(b) will be subject to the following limitations:

(a) With respect to Class A Notes of a Single Issuance Series, the aggregate amount of:

SECTION 514. Computation of Amount of Reallocations of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts Taken from Subordinated Classes; Allocations of Reductions to the Nominal Liquidation Amount of Subordinated Classes from Reallocations of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts. The aggregate amount of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts that may be reallocated pursuant to Section 502(a) with respect to any Due Period with respect to any series of Notes will be equal to the lesser of (1) the largest amount that will not result in a violation of Section 512 or 513, as the case may be, and (2) the largest amount that may be reallocated to result in the reduction of the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of the subordinated classes of Notes of that series that will not result in a violation of this Section.

(a) Each reallocation of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts deposited to the Interest Funding sub-Account of a senior class of a series pursuant to Section 502(a) will reduce the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of each tranche of Class C Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (1) the Nominal Liquidation Amount and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such tranche of Class C Notes of that series to (2) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of all tranches of Class C Notes of that series; provided, however, that

(i) amounts reallocated to the Interest Funding sub-Accounts for Class A Notes and Class B Notes of a series will be treated pro rata under this clause (a) based on the amounts reallocated;

(iv) any portion of any reallocation of Principal Collections or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts deposited pursuant to Section 502(a) that cannot be allocated to the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of Class C Notes pursuant to this clause (a) will be allocated to the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of Class B Notes of that series pursuant to clause (b) of this Section to the extent permitted by clause (b);

(b) Each reallocation of Principal Collections and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts deposited to the Interest Funding sub-Accounts of the Class A Notes of a series pursuant to Section 502(a) which does not result in the reduction of the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of Class C Notes of that series will reduce the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of each tranche of Class B Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (1) the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such tranche of Class B Notes of that series to (2) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of all tranches of Class B Notes of that series; provided, however, that

(i) in the case of any tranche of Class A Notes that was Outstanding before the date of any reimbursement of any reduction of the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class B Notes of that series pursuant to Section 527, for purposes of applying amounts of reallocations of Principal Collections or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts deposited into the Interest Funding sub-Account of that tranche of Class A Notes, the ratio set forth in clauses (b)(1) and (b)(2) of this clause will be determined without regard to that reimbursement;

(ii) any allocation of any such reduction that would otherwise have reduced the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sale Proceeds Deposit Amount of a tranche of Class B Notes below zero will be reallocated to the remaining tranches of Class B Notes as set forth in this clause (b), but in no event will the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sale Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class B Notes be reduced below zero.

SECTION 515. Limit on Repayments of Subordinated Classes of Single Issuance Series. (a) Subject to clause (b), with respect to Single Issuance Series,

(i) no funds on deposit in a Principal Funding sub-Account will be applied to pay principal on any Class B Note or to make a payment under a Derivative Agreement with respect to principal of any Class B Note (and no Class B Note will be canceled pursuant to Section 603) unless, immediately before giving effect to that payment (or cancellation), no Class A Notes of that series are Outstanding, and

SECTION 518. Targeted Deposits to the Class C Reserve Account. (a) The aggregate deposit targeted to be made to the Class C Reserve Account with respect to each Due Period is an amount equal to the sum of Class C Reserve Account deposits targeted to be made for each tranche of Class C Notes. The amount of any such deposit and the circumstances that require that a deposit to be made will be set forth in the terms document for that tranche of Class C Notes. Unless another time is specified for making that deposit in the terms document for a tranche of Class C Notes, these deposits will be made on each applicable Monthly Interest Date.

(b) If the amount of funds available for a Due Period pursuant to Section 501(d) is at least equal to the aggregate amount of the deposits targeted by clause (a), then the full amount of each such deposit will be made.

(c) (i) If the amount of funds available for a Due Period pursuant to Section 501(d) is less than the aggregate amount of deposits targeted by clause (a), then the amount available will be allocated to each tranche of Class C Notes pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche to the Nominal Liquidation Amount of all tranches of Class C Notes that have a targeted deposit amount with respect to that Due Period. (ii) Any amount in excess of the amount targeted to be deposited to the Class C Reserve sub-Account for any tranche of Notes will be reallocated to tranches of Class C Notes that did not receive their targeted deposit pursuant to clause (i) pro rata the same basis until all available funds are applied.

SECTION 519. Withdrawals from the Class C Reserve Account. Withdrawals made pursuant to this Section with respect to any tranche of Class C Notes will be made from the Class C Reserve sub-Account established for that tranche of Class C Notes only after all allocations and reallocations have been made pursuant to Sections 501, 502, 503, 505, 508 and 510, but in no event more than the amount on deposit in the applicable Class C Reserve sub-Account. Such withdrawals will be made first, as set forth in clause (a), and second, as set forth in clause (b).

(a) Interest; Payments with Respect to Derivative Agreements for Interest, Accretion on Discount Notes. If the amount on deposit in the Interest Funding sub-Account for any tranche of Class C Notes is insufficient to pay in full the amounts for which withdrawals are required under Section 507(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e), on each date specified in that Section, an amount equal to that deficiency will be withdrawn from that Class C Reserve sub-Account and deposited into that Interest Funding sub-Account.

(b) Payments of Principal; Payments with Respect to Derivative Agreements for Principal. If the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding sub-Account for any tranche of Class C Notes is insufficient to pay in full the amounts for which withdrawals are required under Section 511, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) that deficiency, and (ii) the amount by which the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche of Class C Notes is less than the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of that tranche of Class C Notes will be withdrawn from that Class C Reserve sub-Account and deposited into that Principal Funding sub-Account on the Business Day before the date of the applicable withdrawal required pursuant to Section 511.

(c) Amounts Treated as Finance Charge Collections. (i) If at any time a Class C Reserve sub-Account has an amount of funds on deposit in excess of the amount targeted to be deposited pursuant to the applicable terms document, that excess may be withdrawn and treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2). (ii) Upon payment in full of any tranche of Class C Notes, any amount on deposit in the applicable Class C Reserve sub-Account will be withdrawn and treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

SECTION 520. Reinvestment in the Collateral Certificate. (a) The amount of principal accreted on any tranche of Discount Notes available pursuant to Section 503(f) will be paid to the Master Trust to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 4.03(e) of the Series 2000 Supplement.

(b) Any Finance Charge Collections available pursuant to Section 501(c) which are allocated pursuant to Section 527(f)(i) to any tranche of Notes will be paid to the Master Trust to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 4.03(d) of the Series 2000 Supplement.

(c) Any amount of Principal Collections available pursuant to Section 502(c) will be paid to the Master Trust to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 4.03(f) of the Series 2000 Supplement.

SECTION 521. Final Payment. Each tranche of Notes will be considered to be paid in full, the Holders of such tranche of Notes will have no further right or claim, and the Issuer will have no further obligation or liability with respect to such tranche of Notes, on the earliest to occur of

(a) the date of the payment in full of the stated principal amount of and all accrued interest on that tranche of Notes;

(b) the date on which the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such Notes is reduced to zero, and all accrued interested on such Notes is paid in full; or

(c) on the Legal Maturity Date of such Notes, after giving effect to all deposits, allocations, reallocations, sales of Receivables and payments to be made on such date.

SECTION 522. Timing of Deposits. So long as the Master Trust is permitted to make payments to the Issuer under Sections 4.02(a), (b) or (c) of the Series 2000 Supplement on the applicable Interest Deposit Date or Principal Deposit Date, the amounts received by the Issuer pursuant to Sections 4.02(a), (b) and (c) of the Series 2000 Supplement will be allocated to and deposited into each applicable sub-Account for each tranche of Notes:

(a) in months that do not have an Interest Payment Date or Principal Payment Date, as the case may be, for the applicable tranche, on the applicable Monthly Interest Date or the applicable Monthly Principal Date, as the case may be;

(b) in months that have an Interest Payment Date or Principal Payment Date, as the case may be, for the applicable tranche, one Business Day before such Interest Payment Date or Principal Payment Date; or

(c) in any case, as provided in the applicable terms document or as much earlier as necessary to make timely payments to the applicable Noteholders or Derivative Counterparties.

Otherwise, the funds received by the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Series 2000 Supplement will be allocated to and deposited into each applicable sub-Account as soon after receipt of the applicable funds as practicable.

SECTION 523. Sale of Receivables. (a) (i) If a tranche of Notes has been accelerated pursuant to Section 702 following an Event of Default, the Trustee may, and at the direction of the Majority Holders of that tranche of Notes will, cause the Master Trust to sell Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or interests therein) as set forth in this Section.

(ii) Such a sale will be permitted only if:

(A) in the case of a sale of an Undivided Interest, the Issuer will have delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies a Master Trust Tax Opinion with respect to such sale; and

(B) in any case, at least one of the following conditions is met:

(1) the Holders of 90% of the aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the accelerated tranche of Notes consent; or

(2) the net proceeds of such sale would be sufficient to pay all Outstanding amounts due on the accelerated tranche of Notes; or

(3) the Trustee determines that the Finance Charge Collections and Principal Collections allocable to the accelerated tranche of Notes, payments to be received from any applicable Derivative Agreement and amounts on deposit in the applicable sub-Account will likely not be sufficient to make payments on the accelerated tranche of Notes when due and 66²⁄₃% of the Holders of the accelerated tranche of Notes consent to the sale.

(iii) In the case of an acceleration of a tranche of Notes of a subordinated class, if (A) Receivables Sales Proceeds would be less than the Nominal Liquidation Amount of the accelerated tranche of Notes, and (B) the provisions of Section 515 or Section 516 would prevent the payment of the accelerated tranche of subordinated Notes, such sale will be delayed until a level of prefunding of the Principal Funding sub-Accounts for the senior classes of Notes of that series has been reached such that the amount of such deficiency in Receivables Sales Proceeds is no longer required to provide subordination protection for the senior classes of that series.

(b) If the Nominal Liquidation Amount with respect to any tranche of Notes is greater than zero on its Legal Maturity Date (after giving effect to deposits, allocations, reallocations, payments and distributions otherwise to be made on that Legal Maturity Date), the Issuer will cause the Master Trust to sell on that Legal Maturity Date Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or interests therein).

(c) The amount of Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or interests therein) to be sold pursuant to this Section will be in an amount of up to 110% of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of the affected tranche, but in no case will that amount of Principal Receivables and Finance Charge Receivables exceed the following amount:


the Nominal Liquidation Amount of the affected tranche of Notes	×	the Series 2000 Allocation Percentage (as defined in the Series 2000 Supplement) of the Collateral Certificate	×	the amount of Receivables in the Master Trust
the Nominal Liquidation Amount of all Outstanding Notes	×		×	the amount of Receivables in the Master Trust

(d) (i) The interest to be sold will be:

(A) in the case of any affected tranche of Notes that are Class A Notes, that have reached their Legal Maturity Date by the date of such sale, or are not prevented from being repaid by virtue of Section 515 or Section 516, either (1) an Absolute Ownership, or (2) an Amortizing Undivided Interest; and

(B) in all other cases, a Revolving Undivided Interest.

(ii) On earlier of (A) the Legal Maturity Date of the related tranche of Notes, and (B) the first date on which the related tranche of Notes is no longer prevented from being repaid by virtue of Section 515 or Section 516 (the “Conversion Date”), each Revolving Undivided Interest will convert into either (1) an Absolute Ownership of sale of Principal Receivables and Finance Charge Receivables or (2) an Amortizing Undivided Interest.

(e) In the case of each Revolving Undivided Interest, with respect to each Due Period ending on or before the applicable Conversion Date, a pro rata amount of collections relating to Principal Receivables will be allocated to such Revolving Undivided Interest based on the ratio of (i) the principal balance (as determined below) of such Revolving Undivided Interest as of the last day of such Due Period, to (ii) the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in the Master Trust as of the last day of such Due Period. Such allocation of collections relating to Principal Receivables for such Due Period will be treated as Principal Collections pursuant to Sections 502(b) and (c).

(f) In the case of each Amortizing Undivided Interest, a pro rata amount of collections relating to Principal Receivables will be allocated to such Amortizing Undivided Interest based on the ratio of (i) the principal balance (as determined below) of such Undivided Interest as of the last day of the Due Period ending on or immediately before the Conversion Date, to (ii) the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in the Master Trust as of the last day of such Due Period ending after the Conversion Date. Such allocation of collections relating to Principal Receivables for such Due Period will be paid to the purchaser of the Amortizing Undivided Interest in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of such allocation, and (B) the amount necessary to reduce the principal amount of such Amortizing Undivided Interest to zero (after giving effect to any allocations of Defaulted Amount to such Undivided Interest for such Due Period pursuant to clause (h)(ii)), and any excess allocation will be treated as Principal Collections pursuant to Sections 502(b) and (c).

(g) In the case of each Undivided Interest, with respect to each Due Period, a pro rata amount of collections relating to Finance Charge Receivables will be allocated to such Undivided Interest based on the ratio of (i) the principal balance (as determined below) of such Undivided Interest as of the last day of such Due Period, to (ii) the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in the Master Trust as of the last day of such Due Period. Such allocation of collections relating to Finance Charge Receivables for such Due Period will be paid to the purchaser of the Undivided Interest.

(h) The principal balance of each Undivided Interest as of the end of any Due Period will be equal to:

(i) the initial amount of Principal Receivables comprising such Undivided Interest,

less

(ii) the cumulative amount, computed for each Due Period ended since the sale of such Undivided Interest, of an amount equal to the product of:


the Defaulted Amount for such Due Period	×	the principal balance of such Undivided Interest as of the last day of the immediately preceding Due Period (or in the case of the Due Period in which such Undivided Interest is sold, the initial principal balance of such Undivided Interest)
the Defaulted Amount for such Due Period	×	the aggregate amount of all Principal Receivables in the Master Trust as of the last day of such Due Period

less

(iii) the amount of collections with respect to Principal Receivables previously paid to the purchaser of such Undivided Interest pursuant to clause (f).

(i) Sales proceeds received with respect to a tranche of RSP Notes received pursuant to clause (c) will be allocated in the following priority:

(i) first, to be deposited in the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche of Notes, an amount up to the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount immediately before giving effect to such deposit; and

(ii) second, to be deposited in the Interest Funding sub-Account of that tranche of Notes, the balance of such sales proceeds.

(j) Any amount remaining on deposit in the Interest Funding sub-Account for a tranche of RSP Notes after final payment thereof pursuant to Section 521, will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

SECTION 524. Netting of Deposits and Payments. The Issuer, in its sole discretion, may make all deposits to Interest Funding sub-Account and Principal Funding sub-Account pursuant to Sections 503 and 508 with respect to any Due Period net of, and after giving effect to, (a) all reallocations to be made pursuant to Section 502(a), (b) all payments to be made to Derivative Counterparties pursuant to Sections 507 and 511, and (c) all reinvestments in the Collateral Certificate to be made pursuant to Section 520.

SECTION 525. Pro Rata Payments within a Tranche. All payments of principal, interest or other amounts to Holders of the Notes of a single tranche will be made pro rata based on the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of their Notes.

SECTION 526. Allocations of Reductions from Investor Charge-Offs to the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Amount of Subordinated Classes. On each date when there is a computation of Investor Charge-Offs pursuant to Section 4.03(a) of the Series 2000 Supplement, that reduction will be allocated (and reallocated) on that date to each tranche of Notes as set forth in this Section.

(a) Initially, the amount of all such reductions in the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate will be allocated to each tranche of Outstanding Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes) pro rata based on the Nominal Liquidation Amount of that tranche.

(b) Immediately afterwards, the amount of Investor Charge-Offs allocated to the Class A Notes and Class B Notes of a series will be reallocated to the Class C Notes of that series (including RSP Notes) as set forth in clause (c), and the amount of Investor Charge-Offs allocated to the Class A Notes and not reallocated to the Class C Notes of that series will be reallocated to the Class B Notes of that series (including RSP Notes) as set forth in clause (d), subject in each case to the limits of clauses (c) and (d). Any amount of Investor Charge-Offs which cannot be reallocated to a subordinated class as a result of the limits in clauses (c) and (d) will reduce the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of the tranche of Notes to which it was initially allocated pursuant to clause (a).

(c) (i) The reallocation in clause (b) of Investor Charge-Offs from any tranche of Class A Notes or Class B Notes of a series to the Class C Notes of that series is subject to the following limits:

(A) After giving effect to such reallocation from that tranche of Class A Notes and reallocations from Class B Notes of the same series, that tranche’s Class A Usage of Class C Required Subordinated Amount will not exceed that tranche’s Class A Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes.

(B) After giving effect to such reallocation from that tranche of Class B Notes and reallocations from Class A Notes of the same series, that tranche’s Class B Usage of Class C Required Subordinated Amount will not exceed that tranche’s Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes.

(ii) The amount permitted to be reallocated to tranches of Class C Notes pursuant to this clause (c) will be applied to each tranche of Class C Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of that tranche of Class C Notes to (B) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of all tranches of Class C Notes of that series (in each case computed after giving effect to the allocation to the Class C Notes pursuant to clause (a)). In the case of any tranche of Class A Notes or Class B Notes that was Outstanding before the date of any reimbursement of any reduction in the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class C Notes of that series pursuant to Section 527, for purposes of applying amounts initially allocated to that tranche of Class A Notes or Class B Notes, the ratio set forth in clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B) of this clause will be determined without regard to that reimbursement.

(iii) No such reallocation will reduce the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class C Notes below zero.

(d) (i) The reallocation in clause (b) of Investor Charge-Offs from any tranche of Class A Notes of a series to the Class B Notes of that series is subject to the limit that after giving effect to such reallocation from that tranche of Class A Notes, that tranche’s Class A Usage of Class B Required Subordinated Amount will not exceed that tranche’s Class A Required Subordinated Amount of Class B Notes.

(ii) The amount permitted to be reallocated to tranches of Class B Notes pursuant to this clause (d) will be applied to each tranche of Class B Notes of that series pro rata based on the ratio of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of that tranche of Class B Notes to (B) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of all tranches of Class B Notes of that series (in each case computed after giving effect to the allocation to the Class C Notes and Class B Notes pursuant to clause (a) and the reallocation pursuant to the Class C Notes pursuant to clause (c)). In the case of any tranche of Class A Notes that was Outstanding before the date of any reimbursement of any reduction in the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class B Notes of that series pursuant to Section 527, for purposes of applying amounts initially allocated to that tranche of Class A Notes, the ratio set forth in clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B) of this clause will be determined without regard to that reimbursement.

(iii) No such reallocation will reduce the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of any tranche of Class B Notes below zero.

(e) (i) In the case of each tranche of Notes (other than any tranche of RSP Notes), the Nominal Liquidation Amount of each such tranche will be reduced by an amount equal to the Investor Charge-Offs which are allocated or reallocated to that tranche of Notes, and increased by the amount of Investor Charge-Offs that are reallocated from that tranche of Notes to Notes of a subordinated class of Notes of that series.

(ii) In the case of a tranche of RSP Notes, an amount equal to the Investor Charge-Offs which are reallocated to that tranche of Notes will be withdrawn from the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche and paid to the Master Trust for application pursuant to Section 4.03(a)(ii) of the Series 2000 Supplement.

SECTION 527. Allocations of Reimbursements of Reductions in the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits. If, as of the end of any Due Period,

(1) there are Allocable Miscellaneous Payments available pursuant to Section 4.03(b) of the Series 2000 Supplement or Investor Finance Charge Collections available pursuant to Sections 4.02(a)(ii)(C) and 4.03(c) of the Series 2000 Supplement to reimburse (A) any Invested Amount Deficit or (B) any Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits as of the last day of that Due Period, or

(2) there are Finance Charge Collections available pursuant to Section 501(c) to reimburse (A) any Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficits or (B) any Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits as of the end of that Due Period remaining after giving effect to reimbursements pursuant to clause (1),

such funds will be allocated to each tranche of Notes as follows:

(a) first, to each tranche of Class A Notes of each series pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit thereof (or in the case of tranches of RSP Notes, the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit thereof) to the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficits and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits of all tranches of Class A Notes of that series, but

(i) with respect to tranches of Notes that are not RSP Notes, in no event will the Nominal Liquidation Amount of such a tranche of Notes be increased above the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche,

(ii) with respect to tranches of RSP Notes, in no event will the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such a tranche of Notes be increased above the amount of Receivables Sales Proceeds of that tranche less the aggregate amount of any withdrawals of Receivables Sales Proceeds made pursuant to Section 511(a), (b) or (c),

and any allocation that would otherwise so increase the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such tranche above such amount will be reallocated to the remaining tranches of Class A Notes of such series to the extent possible under this clause (a) and then pursuant to clause (b),

(b) second, to each tranche of Class B Notes of each series pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit thereof (or in the case of tranches of RSP Notes, the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit thereof) to the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits of all tranches of Class B Notes of that series, but

(ii) with respect to tranches of RSP Notes, in no event will the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such a tranche of Notes be increased above the initial amount of Receivables Sales Proceeds of that tranche less the aggregate amount of any withdrawals of Receivables Sales Proceeds made pursuant to Section 511(a), (b) or (c),

and any allocation that would otherwise so increase the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such tranche above such amount will be reallocated to the remaining tranches of Class B Notes of such series to the extent possible under this clause (b) and then pursuant to clause (c), and

(c) third, to each tranche of Class C Notes of each series pro rata based on the ratio of the Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit thereof (or in the case of tranches of RSP Notes, the Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit thereof) to the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount Deficit and Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficits of all tranches of Class C Notes of that series, but

and any allocation that would otherwise so increase the Nominal Liquidation Amount or Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amount of such tranche above such amount will be reallocated to the remaining tranches of Class C Notes of such series to the extent possible under this clause (c), and any unallocated amount will be treated as Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(2).

(d) Effect will be given to allocations in the following priority (i) first, to allocations of Allocable Miscellaneous Payments pursuant to Section 4.03(b) of the Series 2000 Supplement, (ii) second, to allocations of Investor Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Sections 4.02(a)(ii)(C) and 4.03(c) of the Series 2000 Supplement, and (iii) third, to allocations of Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(c).

(e) With respect to allocations of Allocable Miscellaneous Payments pursuant to Section 4.03(b) of the Series 2000 Supplement and allocations of Investor Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Sections 4.02(a)(ii)(C) and 4.03(c) of the Series 2000 Supplement,

(i) in the case of tranches of Notes that are not RSP Notes, the aggregate amount of such funds allocated to those tranches will be retained by the Master Trust to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(i) of the Series 2000 Supplement; and

(ii) in the case of tranches of RSP Notes, the funds allocable to each such tranche will be deposited into the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche pursuant to Section 509(d).

(f) With respect to allocations of Finance Charge Collections pursuant to Section 501(c),

(i) in the case of tranches of Notes that are not RSP Notes, the aggregate amount of such funds allocated to those tranches will be paid to the Master Trust to increase the Invested Amount of the Collateral Certificate pursuant to Section 4.03(d) of the Series 2000 Supplement, and

(ii) in the case of tranches of RSP Notes, the funds allocable to each such tranche will be deposited into the Principal Funding sub-Account for that tranche.

(g) Any Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Amounts on deposit in the Interest Funding sub-Account of any tranche of RSP Notes will be withdrawn from such Interest Funding sub-Account on each applicable Interest Payment Date (after giving to any payment of interest on that tranche on that date), and deposited into the applicable Principal Funding Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of Receivables Sales Proceeds on deposit in that Interest Funding sub-Account, and (ii) the amount of any Receivables Sales Proceeds Deposit Deficit of that tranche.

SECTION 528. Order of Giving Effect to Reductions and Reimbursements of Nominal Liquidation Amount. If on any date the Nominal Liquidation Amount of any tranche of Notes is to be reduced or increased pursuant to clauses (b)(iv), (b)(v) and/or (b)(vi) of the definition of Nominal Liquidation Amount, such reductions and reimbursements will be allocated to the Notes of that tranche in the following order:

(a) first, reductions pursuant to clause (b)(vi) (reductions from allocations of Investor Charge-Offs pursuant to Section 526);

(b) second, reductions pursuant to clause (b)(v) (reallocations of Principal Collections pursuant to Section 502(a)); and

(c) third, reimbursements pursuant to clause (b)(iv) (reimbursements of earlier reductions with Finance Charge Collections).

(a) If an Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (f) (if the Event of Default under clause (c) or (f) is with respect to less than all series, classes or tranches of Notes then Outstanding) of Section 701 occurs and is continuing with respect to any series, class or tranche, then in each such case, unless the principal of all the Notes of such series, class or tranche will have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 50% in aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Notes of such series, class or tranche then Outstanding hereunder (each such series, class or tranche acting as a separate class), by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all the Notes of such series, class or tranche then Outstanding and all interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid (if any) thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become and will be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes of such series, class or tranche to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) If an Event of Default described in clause (c) or (f) (if the Event of Default under clause (c) or (f) is with respect to all series, classes or tranches of Notes then Outstanding) of Section 701 occurs and is continuing, then in each such case, unless the principal of all the Notes will have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 50% in aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all the Notes then Outstanding hereunder (treated as one class), by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all the Notes then Outstanding and all interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid (if any) thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become and will be immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary. Such payments are subject to Article V.

(c) If an Event of Default described in clause (d) or (e) of Section 701 occurs and is continuing, then the Notes will automatically be and become immediately due and payable by the Issuer, without notice, or demand to any Person and the Issuer will automatically and immediately be obligated to pay off the Notes.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made with respect to the Notes of any series, class or tranche and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Majority Holders of such series, class or tranche, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(a) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

(i) all overdue installments of interest on the Notes of such series, class or tranche,

(ii) the principal of any Notes of such series, class or tranche which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of the Notes of such series, class or tranche, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,

(iii) interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of the Notes of such series, class or tranche to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, and

(iv) all sums paid by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 807;

and

(b) all Events of Default with respect to such series, class or tranche of Notes, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes of such series, class or tranche which has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 716.

No such rescission will affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 703. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Issuer covenants that if:

(a) the Issuer defaults in the payment of any installment of interest on any series, class or tranche of Notes when such interest becomes due and payable, or

(b) the Issuer defaults in the payment of the principal of any series, class or tranche of Notes at the Legal Maturity Date thereof,

and any such default continues for any period of grace provided with respect to such series, class or tranche of Notes, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of any such Notes the whole amount then due and payable on any such Notes for principal and interest (subject to Article V), with interest, to the extent that payment of such interest will be legally enforceable, upon the overdue principal and upon overdue installments of interest, (i) in the case of Interest-bearing Notes, at the rate of interest applicable to the stated principal amount thereof, unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document; and (ii) in the case of Discount Notes, as specified in the applicable terms document;

and in addition thereto, such further amount as will be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 807.

If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes of such series, class or tranche and collect the money adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Collateral or any other obligor upon such Notes, wherever situated.

SECTION 704. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes will then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee will have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal or interest) will be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise,

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary and advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 807) and of the Noteholders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(ii) to collect and receive any funds or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder to make such payment to the Trustee and in the event that the Trustee will consent to the making of such payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 807.

Nothing herein contained will be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 705. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes of any series, class or tranche may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes of such series, class or tranche or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee will be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment will, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes of the series, class or tranche in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 706. Application of Money Collected. Any money or other property collected by the Trustee with respect to a series, class or tranche of Notes pursuant to this Article will be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the Notes of such series, class or tranche and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

(a) first, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 807.

(b) second, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Notes of that series, class or tranche for principal and interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind (but subject to the allocation provided in Article V), according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, respectively.

SECTION 707. Trustee May Elect to Hold the Collateral Certificate. Following an acceleration of any tranche of Notes, the Trustee may elect to continue to hold the Collateral Certificate and apply distributions on the Collateral Certificate in accordance with the regular distribution provisions pursuant to Article V of this Indenture, except that principal will be paid on the accelerated tranche of Notes to the extent funds are received from the Master Trust and allocated to the accelerated tranche, and payment is permitted by the subordination provisions of the accelerated tranche.

SECTION 708. Sale of Receivables for Accelerated Notes. In the case of a tranche of Notes that has been accelerated following an Event of Default, the Trustee may, and at the direction of the Majority Holders of that tranche of Notes will, cause the Master Trust to sell Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or interests therein) as provided in Section 523.

SECTION 709. Noteholders Have the Right to Direct the Time, Method and Place of Conducting Any Proceeding for Any Remedy Available to the Trustee. The Majority Holders of any accelerated tranche of Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. This right may be exercised only if the direction provided by the Noteholders does not conflict with applicable law or this Indenture or has a substantial likelihood of involving the Trustee in personal liability.

SECTION 710. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Note of any series, class or tranche will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to Notes of such series, class or tranche;

(b) the Holders of not less than 25% in Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Outstanding Notes of such series, class or tranche have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Majority Holders of such series, class or tranche;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes of such series, class or tranche will have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes of such series, class or tranche, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and proportionate benefit of all the Holders of all Notes of such series, class or tranche.

SECTION 711. Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest; Limited Recourse. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note will have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note on the Legal Maturity Date expressed in such Note and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right will not be impaired without the consent of such Holder; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the obligation to pay principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be without recourse to the Issuer, the Banks, the Trustee, the Issuer Trustee or any affiliate, officer, employee or director of any of them, and the obligation of the Issuer to pay principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be subject to Article V.

SECTION 712. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the Noteholders will, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Noteholders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 713. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy will, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 714. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an

acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

SECTION 715. Control by Noteholders. The Majority Holders of any series, class or tranche will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes of such series, class or tranche, provided that:

(a) the Trustee will have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or would conflict with this Indenture or if the Trustee in good faith will, by a Trustee Authorized Officer, determine that the proceedings so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 716. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Majority Holders of any series, class or tranche may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes of such series, class or tranche waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series, class or tranche and its consequences, except a default not theretofore cured:

(a) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note of such series, class or tranche, or

(b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article X cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note of such series, class or tranche.

Upon any such waiver, such default will cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 717. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by his acceptance thereof will be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section will not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Noteholder or group of Noteholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Outstanding Notes of any series, class or tranche to which the suit relates, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholders for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the applicable Legal Maturity Date expressed in such Note.

SECTION 718. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE VIII

The Trustee

SECTION 801. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) The Trustee undertakes to perform any duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture with respect to the Notes of any series, class or tranche of Notes, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.

(b) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may, with respect to Notes of any series, class or tranche, conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee will be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c) In case an Event of Default with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise with respect to the Notes of such series, class or tranche such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a fiduciary would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(d) No provision of this Indenture will be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) this clause will not be construed to limit the effect of clause (a) of this Section;

(ii) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trustee Authorized Officer, unless it will be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iv) no provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it will have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee will be subject to the provisions of this Section.

SECTION 802. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to Notes of any series, class or tranche,

(a) the Trustee will transmit by mail all Noteholders of such series, class or tranche, as their names and addresses appear in the Note Register, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee,

(b) [RESERVED], and

unless such default will have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note of such series, class or tranche, the Trustee will be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Trustee Authorized Officers in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Noteholders of such series, class or tranche; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 701(c) with respect to Notes of such series, class or tranche no such notice to Noteholders of such series, class or tranche will be given until at least 90 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default”, with respect to Notes of any series, class or tranche, means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Notes of such series, class or tranche.

SECTION 803. Certain Rights of Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 801:

(a) the Trustee may rely and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(b) any request or direction of the Issuer mentioned herein will be sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Certificate;

(c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee will deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established before taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Issuer Certificate;

(d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

(e) the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Noteholders will have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

(f) the Trustee will not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee will determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it will be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney;

(g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee will not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; and

(h) the Trustee will not be responsible for filing any financing statements or continuation statements in connection with the Notes, but will cooperate with the Issuer in connection with the filing of such financing statements or continuation statements.

SECTION 804. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the certificates of authentication, will be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes. The Trustee will not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of Notes or the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 805. May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Note Registrar or any other agent of the Issuer, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Sections 808 and 813, may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or such other agent.

SECTION 806. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee will be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Issuer.

SECTION 807. Compensation and Reimbursement, Limit on Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnity. (a) The Issuer agrees, solely with funds available pursuant to Section 501(a),

(i) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation will not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and

(iii) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Issuer under this Section, the Issuer and the Noteholders agree that the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such pursuant to Section 501 or 502, except funds held in the Accounts.

The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, will have no recourse to any asset of the Issuer other than funds available pursuant to Section 501(a) or to any Person other than the Issuer.

(c) This Section will survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or replacement of the Trustee under Section 810.

SECTION 808. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or will acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee will, if so required by the Trust Indenture Act, either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. Nothing herein will prevent the Trustee from filing with the Commission the application referred to in the second to last paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

SECTION 809. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to each series, class or tranche of Notes, which will be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority, and having a rating of at least BBB- by Standard & Poor’s. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Issuer may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Issuer, serve as Trustee. If at any time the Trustee with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

SECTION 810. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article will become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 811.

(b) The Trustee may resign with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee will not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(c) The Trustee may be removed with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes at any time by Act of the Majority Holders of that series, class or tranche, delivered to the Trustee and to the Issuer.

(d) If at any time:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Noteholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note of that series, class or tranche for at least 6 months, or

(ii) the Trustee ceases to be eligible under Section 809 with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes and fails to resign after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any such Noteholder, or

(iii) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes, or

(iv) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property is appointed or any public officer takes charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (A) the Issuer may remove the Trustee, with respect to the series, class or tranche, or in the case of clause (iv), with respect to all series, classes or tranches, or (B) subject to Section 717, any Noteholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note of such series, class or tranche for at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the series, class or tranche, or, in the case of clause (iv), with respect to all series, classes or tranches.

(e) If the Trustee resigns, is removed or becomes incapable of acting with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes, or if a vacancy will occur in the office of the Trustee with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes for any cause, the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor Trustee for that series, class or tranche of Notes. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapacity, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to such series,

class or tranche of Notes is appointed by Act of the Majority Holders of such series, class or tranche delivered to the Issuer and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed will, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to such series, class or tranche and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer with respect to such series, class or tranche. If no successor Trustee with respect to such series, class or tranche will have been so appointed by the Issuer or the Noteholders of such series, class or tranche and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Noteholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note of that series, class or tranche for at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series, class or tranche.

(f) The Issuer will give written notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to any series, class or tranche and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to any series, class or tranche to each Noteholder as provided in Section 106 and to each Rating Agency. Each notice will include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its principal Corporate Trust Office.

SECTION 811. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and to the predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, with a copy to the Rating Agencies, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee will become effective with respect to any series, class or tranche as to which it is resigning or being removed as Trustee, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, will become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to any such series, class or tranche; but, on request of the Issuer or the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee will, upon payment of its reasonable charges, if any, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the predecessor Trustee, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such predecessor Trustee hereunder with respect to all or any such series, class or tranche, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 807. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer will execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of one or more (but not all) series, classes or tranches, the Issuer, the predecessor Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of any applicable series, class or tranche will execute and deliver a supplemental indenture which will contain such provisions as will be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Notes of any series, class or tranche as to which the predecessor Trustee is not being succeeded will continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and will add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as will be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture will constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee will be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee.

No successor Trustee with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes will accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee will be qualified and eligible with respect to that series, class or tranche under this Article.

SECTION 812. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, will be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation will be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. The Issuer will give prompt written notice of such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession to the Rating Agencies. In case any Notes will have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

SECTION 813. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. If and when the Trustee will be or become a creditor of the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Trustee will be subject to the provisions of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed will be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent provided therein.

SECTION 814. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. At any time when any of the Notes remain Outstanding the Trustee, with the approval of the Issuer, may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series, classes or tranches of Notes which will be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Notes of such series, classes or tranches issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 305, and Notes so authenticated will be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and will be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference will be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent will be acceptable to the Issuer and will at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as an Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and, if other than the Issuer itself, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. The initial Authenticating Agent for the Notes of all series, classes and tranches will be Citibank.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, will continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation will be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Issuer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Issuer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee, with the approval of the Issuer, may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which will be acceptable to the Issuer and will give notice to each Noteholder as provided in Section 106. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder will become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent will be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent (other than an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of the Issuer from time to time) reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee will be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 807.

If an appointment with respect to one or more series, classes or tranches is made pursuant to this Section, the Notes of such series, classes or tranches may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Notes of the series, classes or tranches designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

(b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Issuer of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days before the time such list is furnished, excluding from any such list names and addresses received by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar.

(b) If three or more Holders of Notes of any series, class or tranche (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Note of such series, class or tranche for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders of Notes of such series, class or tranche or with the Holders of all Notes with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Notes and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee will, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either

(i) afford such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 902(a), or

(ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders of Notes of such series, class or tranche or all Notes, as the case may be, whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 902(a), and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Noteholders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.

If the Trustee will elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee will, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Holder of a Note of such series, class or tranche or to all Noteholders, as the case may be, whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 902(a), a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with

reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless, within five days after such tender, the Trustee will mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders of Notes of such series, class or tranche or all Noteholders, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement will specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, will enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission will find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and will enter an order so declaring, the Trustee will mail copies of such material to all Noteholders of such series, class or tranche or all Noteholders, as the case may be, with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee will be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.

(c) Every Holder of Notes, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Issuer and the Trustee that neither the Issuer nor the Trustee will be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes in accordance with Section 902(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee will not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 902(b).

The Issuer will notify the Trustee when the Notes are admitted to trading on any national securities exchange.

SECTION 904. Meetings of Noteholders; Amendments and Waivers. (a) The Trustee may call a meeting of the Noteholders of a series, class or tranche at any time.

ARTICLE XI

Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Issuer

SECTION 1101. Payment of Principal and Interest. With respect to each series, class or tranche of Notes, the Issuer will duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on such Notes in accordance with their terms and this Indenture, and will duly comply with all the other terms, agreements and conditions contained in, or made in this Indenture for the benefit of, the Notes of such series, class or tranche.

SECTION 1102. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer will maintain an office, agency or Paying Agent in each Place of Payment where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Notes may be surrendered for transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer will fail to maintain such office or agency or will fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

SECTION 1103. Money for Note Payments to be Held in Trust. The Paying Agent, on behalf of the Trustee, will make distributions to Noteholders from the Collection Account or other applicable Account pursuant to the provisions of Article V of this Indenture or any supplement thereto and will report the amounts of such distributions to the Trustee. Any Paying Agent will have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account or other applicable Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent has failed to perform its obligations under this Indenture or any supplemental indenture in any material respect. The Paying Agent upon removal will return all funds in its possession to the Trustee.

The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) for any series, class or tranche of Notes to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent will agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of or interest on Notes of such series, class or tranche in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums will be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

107

(b) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, give the Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes of such series, class or tranche) in the making of any such payment of principal or interest on the Notes of such series, class or tranche;

(c) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

(d) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and, if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards described in this Section required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and

(e) comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Certificate direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuer or such Paying Agent in respect of each and every series, class or tranche of Notes as to which it seeks to discharge this Indenture or, if for any other purpose, all sums so held in trust by the Issuer in respect of all Notes, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent will be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note of any series, class or tranche and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and payable will be paid to the Issuer upon request in an Issuer Certificate, or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease. The Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer give notice to the Holders of the Notes as to which the money to be repaid was held in trust, as provided in Section 106, a notice that such funds remain unclaimed and that, after a date specified in the notice, which will not be less than 30 days from the date on which the notice was first mailed or published to the Holders of the Notes as to which the money to be repaid was held in trust, any unclaimed balance of such funds then remaining will be paid to the Issuer free of the trust formerly impressed upon it.

The Issuer initially authorizes Citibank to act as Paying Agent for the Notes on its behalf. The Issuer may at any time and from time to time authorize one or more Persons (including the Trustee) to act as Paying Agent in addition to or in place of Citibank with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes issued under this Indenture.

108

Each Paying Agent will at all times, have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and be subject to supervision or examination by a United States Federal or State authority or be regulated by or subject to the supervision or examination of a governmental authority of a nation that is a member of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. If such Paying Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Paying Agent will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

(b) to the best of such Issuer Authorized Officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Issuer has complied in all material respects with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such condition or covenant (without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice), specifying each such default known to such Issuer Authorized Officer and the nature and status thereof.

SECTION 1105. Legal Existence. The Issuer will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its legal existence.

SECTION 1106. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Issuer will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

SECTION 1107. Compliance with Laws. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of all applicable laws, the noncompliance with which would, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect the ability of the Issuer to perform its obligations under the Notes or this Indenture.

SECTION 1108. Notice of Events of Default. The Issuer agrees to give the Trustee and the Rating Agencies prompt written notice of each Event of Default hereunder and each default on the part of the Master Trust or the Sellers of their respective obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and any default of a Derivative Counterparty.

SECTION 1109. Certain Negative Covenants. The Issuer will not:

(a) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts withheld in good faith from such payments under the Internal Revenue Code or other applicable tax law);

(b) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be impaired, or permit the lien in favor of the Secured Parties created by this Indenture to be amended,

109

hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture except as may be expressly permitted hereby;

(c) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien in favor of the Secured Parties created by this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Collateral or any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof; or

(d) permit the lien in favor of the Secured Parties created by this Indenture not to constitute a valid security interest in the Collateral; or

(e) voluntarily dissolve or liquidate.

SECTION 1110. No Other Business. The Issuer will not engage in any business other than as permitted under the Trust Agreement.

SECTION 1111. No Borrowing. The Issuer will not issue, incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable, directly or indirectly, for any indebtedness for borrowed money except for the Notes.

SECTION 1112. Excluded Series. The Issuer will notify the Master Trust with respect to each Due Period of the extent to which any series of Notes constitutes an Excluded Series under the Series 2000 Supplement.

SECTION 1113. Rule 144A Information. For so long as any of the Notes of any series, class or tranche are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Exchange Act, the Issuer agrees to provide to any Noteholder of such series, class or tranche and to any prospective purchaser of Notes designated by such Noteholder, upon the request of such Noteholder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided to such Holder or prospective purchaser to satisfy the conditions set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Exchange Act.

ARTICLE XII

Early Redemption of Notes

SECTION 1201. Applicability of Article. Pursuant to the terms of this Article, the Issuer will redeem and pay, provided that funds are available, each affected series, class or tranche of Notes upon the occurrence of any Early Redemption Event. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable terms document creating a series, class or tranche of Notes, or in the form of Notes for such series, class or tranche, the following are “Early Redemption Events”:

(a) with respect to any tranche of Notes, the occurrence of the Expected Principal Payment Date of such Notes;

(b) the occurrence of any Amortization Event as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Collateral Certificate;

110

(c) mandatory prepayment of the entire Collateral Certificate resulting from a breach of a representation or warranty by the Banks under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(d) with respect to any tranche of Notes, at any time a Payment Request with respect to a requested payment of Available Investor Principal Collections has been issued with respect to such tranche of Notes, the Portfolio Yield (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for any Due Period will be less than the Weighted Average Interest Rates for all tranches of Notes of that Group as of the last day of such Due Period;

(e) the amount of Surplus Finance Charge Collections averaged over any three consecutive Due Periods will be less than the Required Surplus Finance Charge Amount for the last of such three consecutive Due Periods;

(f) the Issuer becomes an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act;

(g) with respect to any tranche of Notes (other than a tranche of RSP Notes) that has funds on deposit in a Principal Funding sub-Account, with respect to any Due Period, the product of

(i) the total amount of Principal Receivables in the Master Trust as of the last day of such Due Period,

(ii) the Series 2000 Allocation Percentage (as defined in the Series 2000 Supplement) for such Due Period, expressed as a decimal, and

(iii) the difference of 100% minus the Floating Allocation Percentage (as defined in the Series 2000 Supplement) for such Due Period, expressed as a decimal,

will fail to equal at least the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account of all tranches of Notes (other than tranches of RSP Notes) as of the last day of such Due Period; or

(h) with respect to any series, class or tranche of Notes, any additional Early Redemption Event specified in the terms document for such series, class or tranche as applying to such series, class or tranche, or specified in the form of Note for such series, class or tranche.

The redemption price of a tranche of Notes so redeemed will equal the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche, plus interest accrued and unpaid or principal accreted and unpaid on such tranche to but excluding the date of redemption, the payment of which will be subject to Article V.

If the Issuer is unable to pay the redemption price in full on the Monthly Principal Date following the end of the Due Period in which the Early Redemption Event occurs, monthly payments on such tranche of Notes will thereafter be made on each following Monthly Principal Date until the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche, plus all accrued and unpaid

111

interest, is paid in full or the Legal Maturity Date occurs, whichever is earlier, subject to Article V. Any funds in the Principal Funding Account, the Interest Funding Account and, in the case of Class C Notes, the Class C Reserve Account for a redeemed tranche will be applied to make the principal and interest payments on that tranche on the redemption date, subject to Article V. Principal payments on redeemed tranches will be made first to the Class A Notes until paid in full, then to the Class B Notes until paid in full and finally to the Class C Notes until paid in full.

SECTION 1202. Optional Repurchase. (a) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable terms document for a tranche of Notes, the Issuer has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem a tranche of Notes of a Multiple Issuance Series in whole but not in part on any day on or after the day on which the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of such tranche is reduced to less than 5% of its Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that if such tranche of Notes is of a subordinated class, the Issuer will not redeem such Notes if it will leave the senior classes of Notes of that series with less than the applicable Required Subordinated Amount. If the Issuer elects to redeem a tranche of Notes of a Multiple Issuance Series, it will notify the Holders of such redemption at least 30 days prior to the redemption date. The redemption price of a tranche so redeemed will equal the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche, plus interest accrued and unpaid or principal accreted and unpaid on such tranche to but excluding the date of redemption, the payment of which will be subject to Article V.

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable terms document for a series of Notes of a Single Issuance Series, the Issuer has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem Notes of a Single Issuance Series in whole but not in part on any day on or after the day on which the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of such series is reduced to less than 5% of its Initial Dollar Principal Amount. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes of a Single Issuance Series, it will notify the Holders of such redemption at least 30 days prior to the redemption date. The redemption price of a series so redeemed will equal the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such series, plus interest accrued and unpaid or principal accreted and unpaid on such tranche to but excluding the date of redemption, the payment of which will be subject to Article V.

If the Issuer is unable to pay the redemption price in full on the redemption date, monthly payments on such tranche of Notes will thereafter be made until the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such tranche, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, is paid in full or the Legal Maturity Date occurs, whichever is earlier, subject to Article V. Any funds in the Principal Funding Account, the Interest Funding Account and, in the case of Class C Notes, the Class C Reserve Account for a redeemed tranche will be applied to make the principal and interest payments on that tranche on the redemption date, subject to Article V. Principal payments on redeemed tranches will be made first to the Class A Notes until paid in full, then to the Class B Notes until paid in full and finally to the Class C Notes until paid in full.

SECTION 1203. Notice. Promptly after the occurrence of any Early Redemption Event or a redemption pursuant to Section 1202, the Issuer will notify the Trustee and the Rating Agencies in writing of the identity, stated principal amount and Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the affected series, class or tranche of Notes to be redeemed. Notice of redemption will promptly be given as provided in Section 106. All notices of redemption will state (a) the date on which the redemption of the applicable series, class or tranche of Notes pursuant to this Article will begin, (b) the redemption price for such series, class or tranche of Notes, which will be equal to the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of such series, class or tranche plus interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid (if any), the payment of which will be subject to Article V and (c) the series, class or tranche of Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Article.

The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document recorded, registered or filed as provided above, as soon as available following such recording, registration or filing.

(ii) Within 30 days after the Issuer makes any change in its name, identity, corporate structure or jurisdiction of organization which would make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (d)(i) seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9-506 (or any comparable provision) of the UCC, the Issuer will give the Trustee notice of any such change and will file such financing statements or amendments as may be necessary to continue the perfection of the Secured Parties’ security interest in the Collateral.

The Issuer will at all times maintain its principal executive offices within the United States.

(e) The duty of the Trustee to execute any instrument required pursuant to this Section will arise only if the Trustee has knowledge of the type described in Section 701(c) of any default of the Issuer in complying with the provisions of this Section.

114

SECTION 1302. Trust Indenture Act Requirements. The release of any Collateral from the lien created by this Indenture, or the release of, in whole or in part, such lien, will not be deemed to impair the Security Interests in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or lien are released pursuant to the terms hereof. The Trustee and each of the other Secured Parties acknowledge that a release of Collateral or lien strictly in accordance with the terms hereof will not be deemed for any purpose to be an impairment of the Security Interests in contravention of the terms of this Indenture. To the extent applicable, without limitation, the Issuer and each other obligor on the Notes will cause TIA § 314(d) relating to the release of property or securities from the liens hereof to be complied with. Any certificate or opinion required by TIA § 314(d) may be made by an officer of the appropriate obligor, except in cases in which TIA § 314(d) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent person.

SECTION 1303. Suits To Protect the Collateral. Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee will have power to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee may deem expedient to preserve or protect their interests and the interests of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Security Interests or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee). No counterparty to a Derivative Agreement may direct the Trustee to enforce the Security Interest. Each counterparty’s rights consist solely of the right to receive Collections allocated for its benefit pursuant to Article V.

SECTION 1304. Purchaser Protected. In no event will any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to be released hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor will any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Issuer or any other obligor, as applicable, to make any such sale or other transfer.

SECTION 1305. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Collateral will be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article upon the Issuer or any other obligor, as applicable, with respect to the release, sale or other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee will be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer or any other obligor, as applicable, or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article.

115

SECTION 1306. Determinations Relating to Collateral. In the event (i) the Trustee will receive any written request from the Issuer or any other obligor for consent or approval with respect to any matter or thing relating to any Collateral or the Issuer’s or any other obligor’s obligations with respect thereto or (ii) there will be due to or from the Trustee under the provisions hereof any performance or the delivery of any instrument or (iii) the Trustee will become aware of any nonperformance by the Issuer or any other obligor of any covenant or any breach of any representation or warranty of the Issuer or any other obligor set forth in this Indenture, then, in each such event, the Trustee will be entitled to hire experts, consultants, agents and attorneys to advise the Trustee on the manner in which the Trustee should respond to such request or render any requested performance or response to such nonperformance or breach (the expenses of which will be reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 807). The Trustee will be fully protected in the taking of any action recommended or approved by any such expert, consultant, agent or attorney or agreed to by the Majority Holders of the Outstanding Notes.

SECTION 1307. Release of Collateral. (a) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Section 807, the Trustee will, at the request of the Issuer or when otherwise required by the provisions of this Indenture, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Trustee’s interest in the same, in a manner and under circumstances which are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Trustee as provided in this Article will be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any funds.

(b) Upon delivery of an Issuer Certificate certifying that the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture have been satisfied and discharged by complying with the provisions of this Article, the Trustee will (i) execute and deliver such releases, termination statements and other instruments (in recordable form, where appropriate) as the Issuer or any other obligor, as applicable, may reasonably request evidencing the termination of the Security Interests created by this Indenture and (ii) not be deemed to hold the Security Interests for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(c) The Banks and the Noteholders will be entitled to receive at least 10 days written notice when the Trustee proposes to take any action pursuant to clause (a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Trustee will also be entitled to require, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Trustee in connection with any such action.

SECTION 1310. Delegation of Duties. The Issuer may contract with or appoint other Persons (including the Banks and their Affiliates) to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Trustee in an Issuer Certificate will be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer.

SECTION 1311. Additional Representations Concerning Collateral. The Issuer represents as follows:

(b) The Collateral Certificate constitutes either a “certificated security” or a “general intangible” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

(c) At the time the Issuer granted to the Secured Parties a security interest in the Collateral Certificate, the Issuer owned and had good and marketable title to the Collateral Certificate free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

(d) The Collateral Certificate has been delivered to the Trustee. The Issuer has caused the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Collateral Certificate granted to the Secured Parties under this Indenture to the extent that the Collateral Certificate constitutes a “general intangible” within the meaning of the applicable UCC. The Collateral Certificate has been registered in the name of the Issuer.

(e) Other than the security interest granted to the Secured Parties pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise

117

conveyed any of the Collateral Certificate. The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Collateral Certificate other than any financing statement (i) relating to the security interest granted to the Secured Parties pursuant to this Indenture, or (ii) that has been terminated or released. The Issuer is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it. The Collateral Certificate does not have any marks or notations indicating that is has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Issuer.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with our purchase of the above Notes (the “Notes”) we confirm that:

(1) We understand that the Notes are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are being sold to us in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(2) Any information we desire concerning the Notes or any other matter relevant to our decision to purchase the Notes is or has been made available to us.

(3) We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes, and we (and any account for which we are purchasing under paragraph (iv) below) are able to

¹	Not less than $250,000 minimum principal amount.

bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes. We (and any account for which we are purchasing under paragraph (iv) below) are an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) of Regulation D under the Securities Act).

(4) We are acquiring the Notes for our own account or for accounts as to which we exercise sole investment discretion and not with a view to any distribution of the Notes, subject, nevertheless, to the understanding that the disposition of our property shall at all times be and remain within our control;

(5) We agree that the Notes must be held indefinitely by us unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from any registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities law is available;

(6) We agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to dispose of or exchange any of the Notes (such disposition or exchange not being currently foreseen or contemplated), we will not transfer or exchange any of the Notes unless:

(a)(i) the sale is of at least U.S. $250,000 principal amount of Notes to an Eligible Purchaser (as defined below), (ii) a letter to substantially the same effect as paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this letter is executed promptly by the purchaser and (iii) all offers or solicitations in connection with the sale, whether directly or through any agent acting on our behalf, are limited only to Eligible Purchasers and are not made by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising whatsoever; or

(b) the Notes are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by us after we have held them for more than three years; or

(c) the Notes are sold in any other transaction that does not require registration under the Securities Act and, if the Issuer, the Trustee or the Note Registrar so requests, we theretofore have furnished to such party an opinion of counsel satisfactory to such party, in form and substance satisfactory to such party, to such effect; or

(d) the Notes are transferred pursuant to an exception from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Rule 144A under the Securities Act; and

(7) We understand that the Notes will bear a legend to substantially the following effect:

“THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ANY STATE BLUE SKY OR SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH PROVISIONS. THE TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO HEREIN.”

D-2

This legend may be removed if the Issuer, the Trustee and the Note Registrar have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to them, in form and substance satisfactory to them, to the effect that the legend may be removed.

“Eligible Purchaser” means either an Eligible Dealer or a corporation, partnership or other entity which we have reasonable grounds to believe and do believe can make representations with respect to itself to substantially the same effect as the representations set forth herein. “Eligible Dealer” means any corporation or other entity the principal business of which is acting as a broker and/or dealer in securities. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Second Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of November 10, 2016, between Citibank Credit Card Issuance Trust and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee, as further amended, restated, supplemented and otherwise modified.


Very truly yours,
