Each Transferor shall authorize, record and file, at its own expense, financing statements (and amendments to financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Receivables and other Transferred Assets conveyed by such Transferor meeting the requirements of applicable law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain the perfection of, the transfer and assignment of its interest in such Receivables and the other Transferred Assets to the Issuer, and deliver a file stamped copy of each such financing statement or other evidence of such filing (which can include telephonic confirmation) to the Owner Trustee on or prior to (A) the Initial Issuance Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (B) the Automatic Addition Termination Date, any Automatic Addition Suspension Date and any Restart Date, in the case of Automatic Additional Accounts, and (C) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Supplemental Accounts and, in the
