Section 4.12. Investment Instructions. Any investment instructions required to be given to Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to Indenture Trustee no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such investment is to be made. In the event Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, Indenture Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event Indenture Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by Indenture Trustee after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such day, such investment shall be made by Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day such investment is requested to be made.

Section 4.13. Accumulation Period. The Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence at the beginning of business on October 1, 2015; provided that if the Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) on any Determination Date on or after the July, 2015 Determination Date is less than twelve months, the date on which the Accumulation Period actually commences will be changed to the first Business Day of the month that is the number of whole months prior to the month in which the Expected Principal Payment Date occurs equal to the Accumulation Period Length (so that, as a result of such election, the number of Monthly Periods in the Accumulation Period will equal the Accumulation Period Length); provided that (i) the length of the Accumulation Period will not be less than one month, (ii) such determination of the Accumulation Period Length shall be made on each Determination Date on and after the July, 2015 Determination Date but prior to the commencement of the Accumulation Period, and any postponement of the Accumulation Period shall be subject to the subsequent lengthening of the Accumulation Period to the Accumulation Period Length determined on any subsequent Determination Date, but the Accumulation Period shall in no event commence prior to the Controlled Accumulation Date, and (iii) notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture Supplement to the contrary, no postponement of the commencement of the Accumulation Period shall be made after a Pay Out Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any other Series. The “Accumulation Period Length” will mean a number of whole months such that the amount available for distribution of principal on the Series 2013-2 Notes on the Expected Principal Payment Date is expected to equal or exceed the sum of the Class A Note Principal Balance, the Class B Note Principal Balance, the Class C Note Principal Balance and the Class D Principal Balance, assuming for this purpose that (1) the payment rate with respect to Principal Collections remains constant at the lowest level of such payment rate during the twelve preceding Monthly Periods (or such lower payment rate as Servicer may select), (2) the total amount of Principal Receivables in the Trust (and the principal amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account, if any) remains constant at the level on such date of determination, (3) no Pay Out Event with respect to any Series will subsequently occur and (4) no additional Series (other than any Series being issued on such date of determination) will be subsequently issued. Servicer shall calculate the Accumulation Period Length on each Determination Date on and after the July, 2015 Determination Date as necessary to determine whether the Accumulation Period is postponed and to set the Reserve Account Funding Date. If the calculation results in a postponement, Servicer shall provide notice in writing to Indenture Trustee, Transferor, Issuer and each Rating Agency. Any notice by Servicer confirming the postponement of the Accumulation Period pursuant to this Section 4.13 shall specify (i) the Accumulation Period Length, (ii) the commencement date of the Accumulation Period and (iii) the Controlled Accumulation Amount with respect to each Monthly Period during the Accumulation Period. The method for determining the Accumulation Period Length may be changed if the Rating Agency Condition is met.

Section 4.14. Suspension of Accumulation Period.

(a) Servicer may elect to suspend the commencement of the Accumulation Period with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, at any time prior to the Distribution Date preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date. The commencement of the Accumulation Period shall be suspended upon delivery by Servicer to Indenture Trustee of (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that Servicer has elected to suspend the commencement of the Accumulation Period and that all conditions precedent to such suspension set forth in this Section 4.14 have been satisfied, (ii) a copy of an executed Qualified Maturity Agreement and (iii) an Opinion of Counsel addressed to Indenture Trustee as to the due authorization, execution and delivery and the validity and enforceability of such Qualified Maturity Agreement. Issuer does hereby transfer, assign, set-over, and otherwise convey to Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders, without recourse, all of its rights under any Qualified Maturity Agreement obtained in accordance with this Section 4.14 and all proceeds thereof. Such property shall constitute part of the Trust Estate and Collateral for all purposes of the Indenture. The foregoing transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder of any obligation of Issuer or any other Person in connection with a Qualified Maturity Agreement or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto. Each Qualified Maturity Agreement must satisfy the Series Rating Agency Condition.

Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledges its acceptance, to the extent validly transferred, assigned, set-over or otherwise conveyed to Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders, of all of the rights previously held by Issuer under any Qualified Maturity Agreement obtained by Issuer and all proceeds thereof, and declares that it shall hold such rights upon the trust set forth herein and in the Indenture, and subject to the terms hereof and thereof, for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders.

(b) Each Qualified Maturity Agreement shall obligate the provider to deposit into the Principal Accumulation Account on or before the Expected Principal Payment Date an amount equal to the initial Note Principal Balance (reduced by any amount on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account); provided, however, that Issuer may instead elect to fund all or a portion of such deposits with the proceeds of the issuance of a new Series or with the Available Principal Collections with respect to such Transfer Date. The amounts so deposited shall be applied on the Expected Principal Payment Date pursuant to subsection 4.04(c) as if the commencement of the Accumulation Period had not been suspended. The Qualified Maturity Agreement may require that during the period when the Accumulation Period is suspended, upon the occurrence of certain events, Available Principal Collections will be deposited into the Principal Accumulation Account.

(c) Each Qualified Maturity Agreement shall terminate at the close of business on the Expected Principal Payment Date; provided, however, that Servicer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to such Distribution Date, with notice to each Rating Agency, if (i) the Available Reserve Account Amount equals the Required Reserve Account Amount and (ii) one of the following events occurs: (A) Issuer obtains a

 

32


substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement which satisfies the Series Rating Agency Condition, (B) the provider of the Qualified Maturity Agreement ceases to qualify as a Qualified Institution and Issuer is unable to obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement that satisfies the Series Rating Agency Condition, (C) a Pay Out Event occurs or (D) an event which may be declared to be a Pay Out Event occurs, whether or not it is declared. In addition, if the available Reserve Account Amount equals the Required Reserve Account Amount, Servicer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to the later of (1) the date on which the Accumulation Period was scheduled to begin, before giving effect to the suspension of the Accumulation Period, and (2) the date to which the commencement of the Accumulation Period is postponed pursuant to Section 4.13 (as determined on the Determination Date preceding the date of such termination), in which case the commencement of the Accumulation Period shall be determined as if the commencement had not been postponed. In the event that the provider of a Qualified Maturity Agreement ceases to qualify as a Qualified Institution, Servicer shall use its best efforts to obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement that satisfies the Series Rating Agency Condition, unless a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement is not required for any of the reasons listed in this subsection (c).

(d) If a Qualified Maturity Agreement is terminated prior to the earlier of the Expected Principal Payment Date and the commencement of the Rapid Amortization Period and Issuer does not obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement that satisfies the Series Rating Agency Condition, the Accumulation Period shall commence on the latest of (i) the beginning of business on October 1, 2016, (ii) the date to which the commencement of the Accumulation Period is postponed pursuant to Section 4.l4 (as determined on the date of such termination) and (iii) the first day of the Monthly Period following the date of such termination. The Issuer shall notify the Rating Agencies if it intends to terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to the Expected Principal Payment Date.

Section 4.15. Determination of LIBOR.

(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date in respect of an Interest Period, Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a period of the Designated Maturity which appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. If such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of the Designated Maturity.

Re: First National Master Note Trust, Series 2013-2

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the issuance of the First National Master Note Trust, Class [            ] Note, Series 2013-2 (the “Notes”), we confirm that:

1. We agree to be bound by the restrictions and conditions set forth in the First Amended and Restated Master Indenture, dated as of December 20, 2012, as supplemented by the Series 2013-2 Indenture Supplement thereto, dated as of October 24, 2013 (collectively, the “Indenture”), each by and between First National Master Note Trust, as Issuer, and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor indenture trustee to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”), and agree to be bound thereby, and not reoffer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer (any such act, a “Transfer”) the Notes except in compliance with such restrictions and conditions.

2. We understand that the Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities law. We further agree and understand that the Notes may be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws and (i) when pursuant to a transaction complying with the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act only to a person that we reasonably believe is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A (a “QIB”) purchasing for its own account or a QIB purchasing for the account of a QIB, whom we have informed, in each case, that the reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (ii) to an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act, purchasing for its own account or to an “accredited investor” purchasing for a single account (which is an institutional “accredited investor”) as to which the purchaser exercises sole investment discretion.

3. We are [a QIB purchasing for our own account] [a QIB purchasing for the account of a QIB] [an “accredited investor” acquiring the Notes for our own account or for a single account which is an institutional “accredited investor” as to which we exercise sole investment discretion]. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we and any account for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.


4. We are acquiring the Notes purchased by us for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.

5. We hereby agree that we will not resell or otherwise transfer the Notes or any interest therein unless the purchaser thereof provides or has provided to the addressee hereof a letter substantially in the form hereof. We further understand that, on any proposed resale, pledge or transfer of any Notes, we will be required to furnish to the Trustee and the Registrar such certification and other information as the Trustee or the Registrar may reasonably require to confirm that the proposed sale complies with the foregoing restrictions and with the restrictions and conditions of the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to which the Notes were issued. We further understand that Notes purchased by us will bear a legend to the foregoing effect.

6. We are not (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, which is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) a governmental plan, non-U.S. plan or church plan, subject to any federal, state or local law which is, to a material extent, similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, (iv) an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or other plan’s investment in such entity, or (v) a person investing “plan assets” of any such plan (including, for purposes of clauses (iv) and (v), any insurance company general account, but excluding any entity registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended). [For Class B Notes][For Class C Notes] [For Class D Notes].

7. The person signing this letter on behalf of the ultimate beneficial purchaser of the Notes has been duly authorized by such beneficial purchaser of the Notes to do so, and this letter has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the purchaser, enforceable against the purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.
