provide for payments on each Settlement Date (x) which, in the case of a Cap Agreement, are made only by the Hedge Counterparty to the Trustee or Obligor, in an amount equal to the current notional amount of the Hedge Agreement applied to the excess, if any, of the Base LIBO Rate over the Hedge Rate with respect thereto, and (y) in the case of a Swap Agreement, are to be made (1) by the Hedge Counterparty to the Trustee or Obligor in an amount equal to the current notional amount of the Swap Agreement applied to the Base LIBO Rate, and (2) by the Trustee or Obligor to the Hedge Counterparty in an amount equal to such notional amount applied to the Hedge Rate with respect thereto (which amounts may be netted, with the net amount paid by one party to the other);

	(ii)	be satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent;

	(iii)	provide that all payments made by the Hedge Counterparty thereunder shall be made directly into the Series 2002-A Facility Account;

	(iv)	provide for termination at the option of the Trustee and Obligor upon release of the related Series 2002-A Contracts from the Lien of the Master Agreement;

	(v)	require the Hedge Counterparty to find a replacement Hedge Counterparty to execute a new Hedge Agreement satisfactory to the Agent within 10 Business Days of any downgrade of the ratings of the Hedge Counterparty below the levels set forth in the definition of “Hedge Counterparty”, which replacement must meet the qualifications set forth in the definition of “Hedge Counterparty”; and

	(vi)	be between the related Hedge Counterparty and the Trustee or Obligor;

(b) In the event that a Hedge Counterparty no longer satisfies the ratings requirement specified in the definition thereof and does not itself find a replacement which has executed a Hedge Agreement as required under clause (v) of Section 3.08(a), Marlin shall be required, within 15 Business Days following the failure of such Hedge Counterparty to satisfy such ratings requirement, to provide a substitute Person satisfying the requirements of the definition of Hedge Counterparty to be substituted as the Hedge Counterparty under the applicable Hedge Agreement(s) or to enter into a new Hedge Agreement satisfactory to the Agent.

(c) The Trustee or Obligor shall not designate an “Early Termination Date” under any Hedge Agreement following any “Event of Default” or “Termination Event” thereunder without the prior written consent of the Series Controlling Party, and must designate such an “Early Termination Event” at the Series Controlling Party direction if the circumstances would permit the Trustee or Obligor to then make such a designation.

(d) The Trustee or Obligor shall promptly forward to the Series Controlling Party a copy of any notice received from a Hedge Counterparty relating to any downgrade, withdrawal or suspension of such Hedge Counterparty’s (or such Hedge Counterparty’s guarantor’s) ratings.

(e) The Trustee or Obligor shall not execute any assignment, assumption, credit support annex, extension, amendment, modification, waiver, confirmation, designation of “Reference Market Makers,” schedule or other agreement in connection with any Hedge Agreement without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Series Controlling Party. A copy of any such item received by the Trustee or Obligor, together with a copy of any other notice or communication received by the Trustee or Obligor in connection with any Hedge Agreement shall be forwarded to the Series Controlling Party promptly on receipt.

The Servicer shall direct each User to make all payments with respect to the Series 2002-A Contracts which are due after the related Pledge Date directly to the Lockbox Account. Any notice delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 3.09 after the date hereof shall provide that (i) it is irrevocable except by, or a notice accompanied by written consent of, the Series Controlling Party and (ii) the User will only be discharged from its obligations under the Series 2002-A Contract to the extent payments are sent to the Lockbox Account.

(b) The Servicer shall issue and maintain a standing instruction to the Lockbox Bank under the Lockbox Agreement to the effect that (x) on each Business Day the Lockbox Bank shall (i) cause all items received in the post-office box related to the Lockbox Account since the preceding Business Day relating to the Series 2002-A Contracts to be deposited into the Lockbox Account, and (ii) remit by electronic funds transfer into the Series 2002-A Facility Account all available funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account and (y) if the Lockbox Bank receives a written notice from the Series Controlling Party stating that a Series Event of Default has occurred hereunder, the Lockbox Bank shall thereafter follow such directions as it may thereafter receive from the Series Controlling Party with respect to Collections on the Series 2002-A Contracts (without the consent of any other Person), and shall not thereafter follow any directions of the Servicer (unless otherwise directed by the Series Controlling Party). Such standing instruction shall be evidenced by an agreement with the Lockbox Bank in form and substance acceptable to the Series Controlling Party. The Servicer will transfer any payments it receives directly rather than by payment to the Lockbox Account by or on behalf of the Users pursuant to the Series 2002-A Contracts and all Recoveries in respect thereof to the Series 2002-A Facility Account immediately upon receipt thereof.

(c) Neither the Servicer, any Obligor nor any Affiliate thereof shall direct or shall have directed any payments to be remitted to the Lockbox Account unless such payments relate to the Series 2002-A Contracts, or to Contracts relating to other Series of Notes assigned to Group A.

	(v)	the Termination Date has not occurred; and

	(vi)	the Agent shall have received all such other documents, opinions and other information as it shall have reasonably requested not fewer than ten Business Days in advance.

(e) In addition to the provisions of paragraph (b) above, in which a pledge of additional Series 2002-A Contracts results in an increase in the Series 2002-A Note Balance, during the Revolving Period, a Pledge of additional Series 2002-A Contracts may also be funded from the monthly cash flow, as set forth in clause fifteenth of Section 3.03(a)(i). In connection with such a Pledge, the Obligor, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) above, may Pledge such additional Series 2002-A Contracts to the Trustee to hold in trust as part of the Series 2002-A Trust Estate without receiving any additional Advance Amount from the Purchasers, but in consideration of receiving the Advance Amount paid under clause fifteenth of Section 3.03(a)(i) hereof, by delivering a Pledge Notice to the Trustee and the Agent, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Pledge Date (which shall be a Settlement Date).

(f) In addition to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and (e) above, in which a Pledge of additional Series 2002-A Contracts is funded by the Purchasers, or is made to sustain the revolving nature of the facility, the Obligor, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in paragraphs (c) and (d) above, may Pledge Pledged Property to the Trustee to be held in trust as part of the Series 2002-A Trust Estate without receiving any additional Advance Amount, by delivering a Pledge Notice to the Trustee not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Pledge Date (which shall be a Business Day, but need not be a Settlement Date).

(g) If a Purchaser makes an Advance in accordance with paragraph (b) above, the Agent shall remit the related Advance Amount to the Series 2002-A Facility Account or to such other account as the Obligors’ Agent may specify in writing, in same day funds, no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time). The Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Agent of the amount of such Advance Amount and shall appropriately note such Advance Amount (and the increased Series 2002-A Note Balance) on the next succeeding monthly Servicer’s Certificate.

(h) The Agent shall and is hereby authorized to record on the grid attached to the Series 2002-A Note (or at the Agent’s option, in its internal books and records) the date and amount of any Advance Amount paid by it on behalf of a Purchaser, and each repayment thereof; provided, that failure to make any such recordation on such grid or any error in such grid shall not adversely affect the Agent’s rights with respect to the full Series 2002-A Note Balance and its right to receive interest payments in respect of the Series 2002-A Note Balance.

(i) The Obligors’ Agent may, not earlier than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the expiration of the Termination Date under clause (i) of the definition thereof, by written notice to the Agent on behalf of the Purchasers, make request for Purchasers to extend the Termination Date for an additional period of three years.

Each Purchaser shall make a determination, in its sole and absolute discretion, not less than sixty (60) days after receipt of such request as to whether or not it will agree to the extension requested. The failure of each Purchaser to provide timely notice of its decision to the Agent shall be deemed to constitute a refusal by such Purchaser to extend the Termination Date. The Termination Date may only be extended by 100% of the Purchasers.

(j) The Obligors’ Agent may, not earlier than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Liquidity Expiration Date, by written notice to the Agent and the Liquidity Provider, make request for the Liquidity Provider to extend the Liquidity Expiration Date on terms reasonably acceptable to Obligor’s Agent. The Liquidity Provider shall make a determination, in its sole and absolute discretion, not less than sixty (60) days after receipt of such request as to whether or not it will agree to the extension requested. The failure of the Liquidity Provider to provide timely notice of its decision to the Obligor’s Agent shall be deemed to constitute a refusal by the Liquidity Provider to extend the Liquidity Expiration Date.
