23
sold, which shall equal the Nominal Liquidation Amount of each affected series, class or Tranche, as applicable, plus accrued interest thereon multiplied by the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate Percentage (the Receivables Sale Amount). Receivables (or interests therein) in an amount equal to the Receivables Sale Amount shall be sold on behalf of the Trust by an institution acceptable to the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer that is either (i) a nationally recognized investment bank, (ii) a nationally recognized commercial bank or (iii) any other institution whose regular business includes the sale of receivables similar to the Receivables in the Trust; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of Receivables sold hereunder with respect to any series, class or Tranche, as applicable, exceed the product of (A) the aggregate amount of Receivables in the Trust and (B) a fraction the numerator of which is the product of the Nominal Liquidation Amount of such series, class or Tranche, as applicable, and the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate Percentage, and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Investor Interest, in each case, as of the close of business on the last day of the Due Period immediately preceding the month in which such Receivables sale occurs; and provided, further, the Receivables selected to be sold hereunder shall not be materially different from the Receivables remaining in the Trust as of such selection date and shall be selected at random from the Receivables. The proceeds (the Receivables Sale Proceeds) therefrom shall be paid to the Trust and immediately deposited into the Series Distribution Account and paid to the Indenture Trustee immediately following such deposit. Such payment shall be deemed to be the final distribution with respect to the affected Tranche. No Originator and no affiliate or agent of any Originator shall be permitted to bid for or purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section 12(b); provided, however, that an affiliate or agent of any Originator may act as selling institution for the sale as specified in the first sentence of this Section 12(b), so long as such affiliate or agent does not act as principal in connection with such sale.

SECTION 14. Counterparts. This Series Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 15. Governing Law. This Series Supplement and all disputes arising out of or relating to it shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions that would result in the application of the law of any state other than New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.
SECTION 16. Intention of Parties. The parties intend the sale, transfer, assignment or conveyance of Receivables, Interchange and all proceeds thereof in connection herewith to be a sale of financial assets in connection with a securitization and an absolute transfer for all purposes (unless otherwise required under applicable law). The parties intend the sale, transfer, assignment or conveyance of Receivables in connection herewith to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes.
24
SECTION 17. Amendment for Sale Accounting Purposes. If the Transferor determines that (i) an amendment to this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is necessary or desirable for such Transferor to maintain or establish sale accounting treatment under then-applicable financial accounting standards, and (ii) the Transferor cannot enter into such amendment pursuant to Section 13.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without obtaining the consent of a specified percentage of Investor Certificateholders, then the Master Servicer, the Transferor, the Trustee and the Servicers may nonetheless enter into such amendment without obtaining the consent of any Certificateholder of any Investor Certificates of this Series so long as the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.
Any such amendment may include, without limitation, any changes necessary to convert the Trust from a one-tier securitization structure to a two-tier securitization structure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Investor Certificateholder that acquires an Investor Certificate of this Series will be deemed to have consented to any such amendment for all purposes, including for purposes of calculating whether the requisite consent percentage, if any, under Section 13.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has been received for any amendment that requires such consent because of the lack of provisions comparable to this Section 17 in the Series Supplements for other Series then outstanding (except that Investor Certificates beneficially owned by the Transferor or any affiliate or agent of the Transferor will not be included in any such calculation).
SECTION 18. Election Under Delaware Asset-Backed Securities Facilitation Act.

REVERSE OF SERIES 2007-CC CERTIFICATE
To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Series Supplement. This Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement and Series Supplement, as each may be amended from time to time, the Investor Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Investor Certificateholder is bound.
This Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate represents a Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust including the right to receive the Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement to be deposited in the Investor Accounts with respect to Discover Card Master Trust I, Series 2007-CC or paid to the Investor Ccrtificateholder.
The aggregate interest represented by the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate at any time in the assets of the Trust shall equal the Series Investor Interest at such time. The Series Investor Interest of the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate is initially $400,000,000 and will increase or decrease pursuant to the terms of the Series Supplement and certain documents referenced therein. The amount of the Series Investor Interest, including all increases and decreases thereto, shall be maintained on the records of the Trustee; provided, however, that the failure of the Trustee to make any such recordation or any error thereon, shall not affect the obligations of Discover Bank hereunder or under the Series Supplement. In addition to the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate, a Seller Certificate has been issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement which represents, at any time, the undivided interest in the Trust not represented by the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate or the investor certificates of any other Series of investor certificates then outstanding, if any. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Sellers may from time to time direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series of investor certificates, which will represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust.
Series Principal Collections, Series Finance Charge Collections, Series Interchange and other amounts allocable to the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate will be distributed to, or for the account of, the Investor Certificateholder of the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate on each Distribution Date through and including the Series Termination Date in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Series Supplement.
This Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Master Servicer. This Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate is limited in right of payment to certain Collections respecting the Receivables and certain other assets of the Trust, all as more specifically set forth hereinabove and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions, the amendment and modification of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer, and the rights of Investor Certificateholders under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and Series Supplement, at any time by the Master Servicer, the Sellers and the Trustee in certain cases (some of which require confirmation from the Rating Agencies that such amendment will not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of their respective ratings assigned to the Investor Certificates) without the consent of the Investor Certificateholders, and in all other cases with the consent of the Investor Certificateholders owning Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 66-2/3% of the Class Invested Amount of each such affected Class (and with confirmation from the Rating Agencies that such amendment will not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of their respective ratings assigned to the Investor Certificates); provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) have a material adverse effect on any Class of Investor Certificateholders by reducing in any manner the amount of, or delaying the timing of, distributions which are required to be made on any Investor Certificate without the consent of the affected Investor Certificateholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of each Investor Certificateholder of each affected Class then of record; provided, further, that the permitted activities of the Trust may be significantly changed only with the consent of the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Aggregate Invested Amount. Any such amendment and any such consent by the Investor Certificateholder for the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate, including the deemed consent described in the following sentence, shall be conclusive and binding on such Investor Certificateholder and upon all future Holders of this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate and of any Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate issued in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation thereof is made upon this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate. Subject to compliance with the terms of Section 17 of the Series Supplement, the Investor Certificateholder of the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate, by acceptance of this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate, will be deemed to have consented for all purposes to any amendment that any Seller determines is necessary or desirable for such Seller to maintain or establish sale accounting treatment under then-applicable financial accounting standards.
The transfer of this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate for registration of transfer at any office or agency maintained by the Transfer Agent and Registrar accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed by the Investor Certificateholder for the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate or such Investor Certificateholders attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificates of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate is exchangeable for a new Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate evidencing a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interests, as requested by the Investor Certificateholder for the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Master Servicer or Transfer Agent and Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
2
The Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Transfer Agent, and any agent of any of them, may treat the person in whose name this Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Master Servicer, the Trust nor the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, nor any agent of any of them or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary except in certain circumstances described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Subject to certain conditions in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement, if the principal of the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate has not been paid in full prior to the Series Termination Date, the obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement with respect to the Series 2007-CC Collateral Certificate shall terminate on the Series Termination Date.

1 | The Discover Card Master Trust I is required to maintain Principal Receivables greater than or equal to the Minimum Principal Receivables Balance. The Minimum Principal Receivables Balance is generally calculated by dividing the Investor Interest by 93%. If the Principal Receivables in the Master Trust are less than the Minimum Principal Receivables Balance, and Discover Bank fails to assign sufficient Receivables to eliminate the deficiency, then an amortization event would occur. This would also cause an early redemption event for the notes issued by Discover Card Execution Note Trust. |
2 | Only the portion of Master Trust Collections required to be deposited under the Master Trusts Required Daily Deposit provisions will typically be deposited in the Master Trust Collections Account each month, and these required amounts may vary markedly from month to month depending on whether any - Notes (or Certificates) are maturing on the following distribution date (in which case additional Principal Collections are retained in such account). Accordingly, the amount deposited in the account is not meaningful as an indicator of Master Trust performance. |
3 | For purposes of allocations to investors, all recoveries are treated as Finance Charge Collections and are included as such in Item 3 above. |
