THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED RECEIVABLES PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 29, 2012 (the “Amendment Date”), is made by and between GE CAPITAL RETAIL BANK, a federal savings bank (“Bank”), and GEMB LENDING INC., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”).

WHEREAS, the Bank and the Purchaser are parties to that certain Receivables Participation Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2007 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified up to the date hereof, the “Original Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Bank and the Purchaser desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement on the terms set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the terms, conditions and mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Bank and the Purchaser agree as set forth herein:

1. Definitions; Interpretation.

 

  (a) All capitalized terms used herein are defined in Schedule 1.

 

  (b) All terms defined directly or by incorporation in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document delivered pursuant thereto unless otherwise defined therein. For purposes of this Agreement and all related certificates and other documents, unless the context otherwise requires: (a) accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement, and accounting terms partly defined in this Agreement to the extent not defined, shall have the respective meanings given to them under generally accepted accounting principles; (b) terms defined in Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are used as defined in that Article; (c) references to any amount as on deposit or outstanding on any particular date means such amount at the close of business on such day; (d) the words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement (or the certificate or other document in which they are used) as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement (or such certificate or document); (e) references to any Section, Schedule or Exhibit are references to Sections, Schedules and Exhibits in or to this Agreement (or the certificate or other document in which the reference is made), and references to any paragraph, subsection, clause or other subdivision within any Section or definition refer to such paragraph, subsection, clause or other subdivision of such Section or definition; (f) the term “including” means “including without limitation”; (g) references to any law or regulation refer to that law or regulation as amended from time to time and include any successor law or regulation; (h) references to any agreement refer to that agreement as from time to time amended, restated or supplemented or as the terms of such agreement are waived or modified in accordance with its terms; (i) references to any Person include that Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (j) headings are for purposes of reference only and shall not otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof; and (k) words in the singular include the plural and words in the plural include the singular.


2. Purchase of Participation Interest in Receivables; Payment to Bank.

 

  (a) Pursuant to the Original Agreement, Bank agreed to contribute, and did contribute to Purchaser, and Purchaser agreed to accept, and did accept, from Bank on the Effective Date, all Conveyed Interests existing on the Effective Date. Bank does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to Purchaser, without recourse, and Purchaser does hereby purchase or otherwise accept from Bank, on each day during the term of this Agreement, each Conveyed Interest created from time to time after the Effective Date until the termination of this Agreement. In consideration for Bank’s sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance to Purchaser on each day during the term of this Agreement of a Conveyed Interest, Purchaser agrees to pay to Bank, in accordance with Section 2(c), the aggregate of the Purchase Prices for all Conveyed Interests purchased by Purchaser since the preceding Settlement Date; provided that Bank may in its discretion contribute Conveyed Interests to Purchaser from time to time. The foregoing conveyance shall be effective instantaneously upon the creation of each Conveyed Interest. The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by Purchaser of any obligation of Bank or any other person in connection with the Accounts or the Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any obligation to Cardholders, Merchants, clearance systems or insurers.

 

  (b)

For the avoidance of doubt, Bank and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and affirm that Bank sold and Purchaser purchased (i) certain Conveyed Interests in Acquired Accounts on certain dates (each, an “Initial Prior Sale Date”) and for the respective prices specified in Schedule 3 hereto and (ii) on each day from and after each Initial Prior Sale Date to and including August 31, 2010, each Conveyed Interest in the related Acquired Accounts created from time to time, in each case on the terms set forth in this Agreement (each such transfer affirmed pursuant to this Section 2(b) being referred to as a “Prior Sale”). The parties hereto acknowledge and confirm that on each Initial Prior Sale Date a schedule of the related Accounts listing the account numbers, balance of Principal Receivables and balance of Finance Charge Receivables existing in the related Accounts as of the close of business on such Initial Prior Sale Date was delivered to Purchaser, and that the Purchase Price for each related Conveyed Interest was paid by Purchaser to Bank in accordance with this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Prior Sales are intended to be treated as the sale of such assets by Bank for accounting purposes, to the extent permitted by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and for tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Bank retained any interest in any Conveyed Interests arising in the Acquired Accounts described in Schedule 3, for consideration previously received, Bank hereby irrevocably

 

2


  conveys all right, title and interest in such Conveyed Interests to Purchaser. The parties acknowledge and agree that such conveyance is intended to be treated as the sale of such assets by Bank for accounting purposes, to the extent permitted by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and for tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Bank and the Purchaser shall execute and deliver an Addendum to this Agreement relating to each such Prior Sale, in substantially the form of Exhibit C.

 

  (c) On each Settlement Date (or less frequently if so agreed between Bank and Purchaser), Purchaser shall pay to Bank in immediately available funds the aggregate Purchase Price for all Conveyed Interests sold to Purchaser on or prior to such Settlement Date; provided that the Purchase Price for any Conveyed Interest contributed to Purchaser shall be deemed to be a capital contribution from Bank to Purchaser.

 

  (d) As of each day during the term of this Agreement, Purchaser shall become the owner for all purposes (e.g., tax, accounting and legal) of the Conveyed Interests created on such day. Bank shall make entries on its books and records to clearly indicate the sale of the Conveyed Interests to Purchaser as of each Transfer Date. The parties hereto intend that each transfer of the Conveyed Interests shall constitute a sale or contribution, as applicable, by Bank to Purchaser and not a loan by Bank to Purchaser secured by the Conveyed Interests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2(d), if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any transaction provided for herein constitutes a loan and not a sale, then the parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law and that Bank shall be deemed to have granted, and Bank hereby grants, to Purchaser a first priority lien and security interest in and to all of Bank’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Conveyed Interests, subject only to Permitted Liens. Purchaser shall make entries on its books and records to clearly indicate the purchase of the Conveyed Interests hereunder. Bank shall execute, and file as necessary, such financing statements or other documents as may be required for recordation of the transfer to Purchaser of its interest in the Conveyed Interests. Notwithstanding anything otherwise provided herein, Purchaser shall have no legal or beneficial interest, whether of ownership or otherwise, in the Accounts.

 

  (e) For accounting purposes, to the extent permitted by generally accepted accounting principles, neither Bank nor Purchaser shall account for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any manner other than, with respect to the sale or contribution of each Conveyed Interest, as a true sale and/or absolute assignment of Bank’s full right, title and ownership interest in the related Conveyed Interests to Purchaser.

 

  (f) Bank agrees, at its own expense, to include in its computer files a code identifying each credit account in which Conveyed Interests have been sold to Purchaser hereunder and any time that the code referenced in this sentence is included with respect to any credit account, such account shall be an “Account” for purposes of this Agreement.

3. Adjustments to Accounts. If on any day the outstanding amount of any Principal Receivable is reduced because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized charge (other than a fraudulent charge) or billing error to an accountholder, or because such Principal Receivable was created in respect of merchandise which was refused or returned by an accountholder, or if the outstanding amount of any Principal Receivable is otherwise reduced other than on account of Collections thereof or such amount being charged-off as uncollectible, then Bank shall compensate Purchaser for its Pro Rata Share of such reduction in the outstanding amount of such Principal Receivable as provided below. Any adjustment required pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made not later than the second Business Day after the Date of Processing for the event giving rise to such adjustment or less frequently if so agreed between Purchaser and Bank. The amount of each such reduction shall be deducted from the amount of the Purchase Price payable by Purchaser to Bank on the Settlement Date that coincides with or next follows the date of the adjustment, and Bank shall pay Purchaser on that Settlement Date any excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions over the aggregate Purchase Price otherwise payable on that Settlement Date.

4. Delivery of Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of Collections; Ownership of Records.

 

  (a) On each day, Bank shall hold in trust for Purchaser the Pro Rata Share of Purchaser in all Collections on Receivables received by the Bank and, on each Settlement Date, pay to Purchaser or its designee, the Pro Rata Share of Purchaser in all Collections received by Bank in respect of the Receivables.

 

  (b) Bank shall, or shall cause its designee to, retain physical possession of all Records relating to the Conveyed Interests in the Accounts in trust for the benefit of Purchaser, and such retention and possession by Bank, or its designee, as applicable, is as custodian for the account of Bank and Purchaser as owners thereof.

5. General Representations and Warranties of Bank. Bank hereby represents and warrants as of the Effective Date and the Amendment Date of this Agreement that:

 

  (a) Bank is a federal savings bank, duly organized, validly existing under the laws of the U.S. and has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under this Agreement; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the transfer of the Conveyed Interests have been and will continue to be duly authorized and are not and will not be in conflict with and do not violate the terms of the charter or bylaws of Bank and will not result in a material breach of or constitute a default under, or require any consent under, any indenture, loan or agreement to which Bank is a party;

6. Additional Representations and Warranties of Bank. Bank hereby represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date and the Amendment Date or such other date as specified below in a specific representation:

 

  (a) As of each Transfer Date, each Receivable in which a Conveyed Interest is sold or contributed to Purchaser on such Transfer Date was originated or acquired by Bank and each sale of a Conveyed Interest constitutes a valid sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance to Purchaser;

 

  (b) As of each Transfer Date, Bank was the legal and beneficial owner of all right, title and interest in and to each Receivable in which a Conveyed Interest is sold to Purchaser on such Transfer Date, and no such Receivable was subject to any Lien other than Permitted Liens, immediately prior to the transfer of the Conveyed Interest in such Receivable to Bank on such Transfer Date;

 

5


  (c) Bank shall maintain its records in a manner to clearly and unambiguously reflect the ownership of Purchaser in the Conveyed Interests; and

 

  (d) As of the applicable Transfer Date, with respect to each Conveyed Interest: (i) Bank has done nothing that would impair its enforceability of the related Receivable; and (ii) there is no limit on Bank’s authority to sell a participation interest in the Receivable.

The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 7 shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Requisite Percentage of Receivables to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

8. Program Agreements and Policies.

 

  (a) Bank shall comply with and perform its obligations under the Program Agreements and the Cardholder Agreements relating to the Accounts and the Credit and Collection Policies except insofar as any failure to comply or perform would not materially or adversely affect the rights of Purchaser in, to and under the Conveyed Interests. Bank may change the terms and provisions of the Program Agreements, the Cardholder Agreements or the Credit and Collection Policies (including the reduction of the required minimum monthly payment, the calculation of the amount, or the timing, of charge offs and periodic finance charges and other fees assessed thereon), but subject to Section 8(b) and only if such change is made applicable to any comparable segment of the credit accounts owned and serviced by Bank which have characteristics the same as, or substantially similar to, the Accounts that are the subject of such change, except as otherwise restricted by an endorsement, sponsorship or other agreement between Bank and an unrelated third party or by the terms of the Program Agreement.

 

  (b) Except as otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, or as is deemed by Bank to be necessary in order for it to maintain its credit business in a safe, sound and competitive manner, based upon Bank’s good faith assessment, in its sole discretion, of the nature of the competition in the credit business, Bank shall not at any time make any reduction in the periodic finance charges assessed on the Principal Receivables or other fees on the Accounts without the consent of Purchaser, which may be deemed given as described in the following sentence. Bank shall consult with Purchaser as necessary with respect to any such proposed reductions in periodic finance charges and other fees on the Accounts to allow Purchaser to assess whether Purchaser is obligated to withhold it consent pursuant to the Bank Participation Interest Sale Agreement or GEMB Lending Participation Interest Sale Agreement. If after such consultation, Purchaser does not promptly notify Bank that it objects to any proposed reduction, Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to the proposed reduction.

9. Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Purchaser. The obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on or prior to each Transfer Date:

 

  (a)

As of each Transfer Date, no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened against Purchaser or Bank to prevent or restrain the consummation of

 

7


  the transactions contemplated hereby, and, on each Transfer Date, there shall be no injunction, decree, or similar restraint preventing or restraining such consummation;

 

  (b) The representations and warranties of Bank set forth in Sections 5 and 6 shall be true and correct in all material respects on each Transfer Date as though made on and as of such date; and

 

  (c) The obligations of Bank set forth in this Agreement to be performed on or before each Transfer Date shall have been performed in all material respects as of such date by Bank.

10. Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Bank. The obligations of Bank in this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on or prior to each Transfer Date:

 

  (a) As of each Transfer Date, no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened against Purchaser or Bank to prevent or restrain the consummation of the purchase or other transactions contemplated hereby, and, on each Transfer Date, there shall be no injunction, decree, or similar restraint preventing or restraining such consummation;

 

  (b) The representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in Section 7 shall be true and correct in all material respects on each Transfer Date as though made on and as of such date; and

 

  (c) The obligations of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement to be performed on or before each Transfer Date shall have been performed in all material respects as of such date by Purchaser.

11. Compliance with the FDIC Rule.

 

  (a) Each of Purchaser and Bank acknowledges and agrees that the purpose of this Section 11 is to comply with the provisions of the FDIC Rule or FDIC Rule Interpretations.

 

  (b) Schedule 4 is expressly incorporated in this Agreement. Each of Bank and Purchaser agrees to perform their respective obligations set forth in Schedule 4.

 

  (c) In the event that Bank becomes the subject of an insolvency proceeding and the FDIC as receiver or conservator provides a written notice of repudiation as contemplated by paragraph (d)(4)(ii) of the FDIC Rule to Bank, Bank shall promptly deliver such notice to Purchaser, with a copy to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee.

 

8


12. Term and Termination.

 

  (a) This Agreement shall have a term of five (5) years beginning on the Amendment Date hereof (the “Initial Term”) and shall renew automatically for successive terms of one (1) year each (each a “Renewal Term”) unless either Party provides notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term or this Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Parties may by mutual consent agree to terminate this Agreement at any time with respect to all or any portion of the Accounts and Receivables.

 

  (b) A Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party in any of the following circumstances:

 

  (1) any representation or warranty made by the other Party in this Agreement shall be incorrect in any material respect and shall not have been corrected within thirty (30) Business Days after written notice thereof has been given to such other Party;

 

  (2) the other Party shall default in any payment obligation under this Agreement and such default shall continue after five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof has been given to such other Party;

 

  (3) the other Party shall default in the performance of any material obligation or undertaking under this Agreement (other than as specified in clause (2) above) and such default shall continue for ninety (90) days after written notice thereof has been given to such other Party; or

 

  (4) an Insolvency Event shall occur with respect to the other Party.

 

  (c) In addition to the foregoing termination rights, Bank may terminate this Agreement immediately if Bank is required to terminate this Agreement by the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Comptroller of the Currency or any other regulator with jurisdiction over the Bank.

 

  (d) The termination of this Agreement either in part or in whole shall not discharge any Party from any obligation incurred prior to such termination.

 

  (e) Upon termination of this Agreement or if Bank otherwise becomes unable for any reason to transfer additional Conveyed Interests to Purchaser hereunder, then, in any such event, Bank agrees to transfer to Purchaser all Collections with respect to Conveyed Interests previously sold to Purchaser. To the extent that it is not clear to Bank whether such Collections related to a Principal Receivable in which a Conveyed Interest was previously sold to Purchaser, Bank agrees that it shall allocate Collections relating to any Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Account. Notwithstanding any cessation of the sale of Conveyed Interests to Purchaser hereunder, Conveyed Interests in Principal Receivables sold to Purchaser prior to cessation of sales hereunder and all Collections in respect thereof and the Requisite Percentage of all Finance Charge Receivables relating to Conveyed Interests previously sold to Purchaser and all Collections in respect thereof shall continue to be property of Purchaser.

 

9


13. Confidentiality.

 

  (a) Each Party agrees that Confidential Information of the other Party shall be used by such Party solely in the performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights pursuant to this Agreement. Except as required by Applicable Laws or legal process, neither Party (the “Restricted Party”) shall disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to third parties; provided, however, that the Restricted Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party (i) to the Restricted Party’s Affiliates, agents or representatives for the sole purpose of fulfilling the Restricted Party’s obligations under this Agreement (as long as the Restricted Party exercises reasonable efforts to prohibit any further disclosure by its Affiliates, agents or representatives), provided that in all events, the Restricted Party shall be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder by and of its Affiliates, agents or representatives, (ii) to the Restricted Party’s auditors, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors, or to a Regulatory Authority with jurisdiction over such Restricted Party, (iii) in the case of Purchaser, to any financial institution or rating agency participating in the securitization of Financed Interests or (iv) to any other third party as mutually agreed by the Parties.

 

  (b) A Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that:

 

  (1) is generally available to the public;

 

  (2) has become publicly known, without fault on the part of the Restricted Party subsequent to the Restricted Party acquiring the information;

 

  (3) was otherwise known by, or available to, the Restricted Party on a non-confidential basis prior to entering into this Agreement; or

 

  (4) becomes available to the Restricted Party on a non-confidential basis from a Person, other than a Party to this Agreement, who is not known by the Restricted Party after reasonable inquiry to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the non-Restricted Party or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to the Restricted Party.

 

  (c) Upon written request or upon the termination of this Agreement, each Party shall return to the other Party all Confidential Information of the other Party in its possession that is in written form; provided, however, that either Party may maintain in its possession all such Confidential Information of the other Party required to be maintained under Applicable Laws relating to the retention of records for the period of time required thereunder.

 

10


  (d) In the event that a Restricted Party is requested or required by legal process to disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party, the Restricted Party will provide the other Party with prompt notice of such request(s) or requirement(s) so that the other Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Restricted Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the other Party does not seek such a protective order or other remedy, or such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the other Party grants a waiver hereunder, the Restricted Party may furnish that portion of the Confidential Information of the other Party which the Restricted Party is legally compelled to disclose and will exercise such efforts to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information of the other Party so furnished as the Restricted Party would exercise in assuring the confidentiality of any of its own confidential information.

14. Merchant Programs. The parties hereto may mutually agree to add Merchant Programs subject to this Agreement and, in accordance with the definition of “Merchant Programs,” all cost centers related to the Bank’s sales finance business line automatically shall be “Merchant Programs” as of the date the Bank enters into the related program agreement with the Merchant (or assumes such agreement by assignment). With respect to any Merchant Program automatically added as described in the preceding sentence, the parties hereto shall execute an Addendum in the form of Exhibit A hereto by the 15th Day following the last day of the month in which the related Merchant Programs became subject to this Agreement, and Schedule 2 shall automatically be updated to include those Merchant Programs described in Exhibit A to each such Addendum. The parties hereto agree that if any Accounts are designated for purchase by a Merchant pursuant to the terms of the related Program Agreement, the affected Accounts shall be removed as Accounts hereunder and the related Merchant Program shall cease to be a Merchant Program and shall be removed from Schedule 2 (such event, an “Involuntary Removal”). In connection with an Involuntary Removal, the Bank shall purchase from Purchaser, the Conveyed Interests relating to such removed Accounts for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of such Conveyed Interests as agreed upon by Buyer and Seller prior to such repurchase, and such purchase price shall be treated as Collections of such Participation Interests. In addition, Bank and Purchaser may mutually agree from time to time to remove Accounts from the operation of this Agreement and/or remove entire Merchant Programs and all related Accounts from the operation of this Agreement. In connection therewith, Bank and Purchaser shall execute a Removal Supplement. The Purchaser may, but shall not be required, to convey to the Bank or its designee the Conveyed Interests relating to the Removed Accounts. Any reassignment of the Conveyed Interests arising in Removed Accounts pursuant to this Section 14 shall be reassigned to the Bank for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of such Conveyed Interests as agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Bank prior to such reassignment, and such purchase price shall be treated as Collections of such Conveyed Interests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14, no repurchase of Conveyed Interests pursuant to this Section 14 shall occur if the fair market value of the related Conveyed Interests is less than the aggregate of the Principal Amounts of the related Participation Interests plus the aggregate of the outstanding Finance Interests related thereto. Purchaser shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by Bank to effect the conveyance of such Purchased Interests pursuant to this Section.

 

11


15. Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations created under it shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, and permitted assigns. Neither Party shall be entitled to assign or transfer any rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (A) either Party may assign this Agreement (i) to any affiliate or subsidiary without consent or (ii) in connection with any securitization by Bank or by Purchaser of all or any portion of its pro rata share of the Receivables and (B) Purchaser may grant a security interest in its rights under this Agreement in favor of GE Capital or one or more of its affiliates, in connection with debt financing provided by such persons to Purchaser or its subsidiaries. No assignment under this section shall relieve a Party of its obligations under this Agreement. Bank may use subcontractors in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

Schedule 3-5


SCHEDULE 4

As required by the FDIC Rule:

(a) As used in this Schedule, references to (i) “sponsor” shall mean GE Capital Retail Bank, (ii) “issuing entity” shall have the meaning specified in the FDIC Rule and, for purposes of clause (b) shall mean, collectively, the Transferor, the Issuer and each other transferee of the financial assets, including the Purchaser, (iii) “servicer” shall mean the Servicer and each other “servicer” of the financial assets within the meaning of the FDIC Rule, (iv) “obligations” or “securitization obligations” shall mean the Notes, and (v) “financial assets” and “securitized financial assets” shall mean the Transferred Assets as defined in the Indenture (except in clause (c) of this Schedule, where such term shall have the meaning specified in the FDIC Rule).

(b) While obligations are outstanding, the issuing entity shall provide to investors information with respect to the credit performance of the obligations and the financial assets, including periodic and cumulative financial asset performance data, delinquency and modification data for the financial assets, substitutions and removal of financial assets, servicer advances, as well as losses that were allocated to such tranche and remaining balance of financial assets supporting such tranche, if applicable, and the percentage of each tranche in relation to the securitization as a whole.

(c) The sponsor shall separately identify in its financial asset databases the financial assets transferred into any securitization and shall maintain an electronic or paper copy of the closing documents for each securitization in a readily accessible form, and a current list of all of its outstanding securitizations and issuing entities, and the most recent Form 10-K, if applicable, or other periodic financial report for each securitization and issuing entity. The sponsor shall make these records readily available for review by the FDIC promptly upon written request.

(d) Prior to the effective date of regulations required under Section 15G of the Securities Exchange Act, 15 U.S.C. 78a et seq., added by Section 941(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (such regulations, the “Section 941 Rules” and such date, the “Section 941 Effective Date”), the sponsor shall retain an economic interest in a material portion, defined as not less than five (5) percent, of the credit risk of the financial assets. This retained interest may be either in the form of an interest of not less than five (5) percent in each of the credit tranches sold or transferred to the investors or in a representative sample of the securitized financial assets equal to not less than five (5) percent of the principal amount of the financial assets at transfer. This retained interest may not be sold or pledged or hedged, except for the hedging of interest rate or currency risk, during the term of the securitization. With respect to any obligation issued after the Section 941 Effective Date, the Section 941 Rules shall exclusively govern the requirement to retain an economic interest in a portion of the credit risk of the financial assets and the sponsor agrees to comply with the Section 941 Rules with respect to any obligations subject to the Section 941 Rules.
