On or before the Determination Date immediately preceding the June 2019 Distribution Date, and on each Determination Date thereafter that occurs prior to the Determination Date occurring in the Monthly Period in which the Accumulation Period is scheduled to begin, the Servicer will determine the Controlled Accumulation Period Length which will equal the number of months such that the sum of the Controlled Accumulation Period Factors for each month during such period will be equal to or greater than the Required Accumulation Factor Number; provided, further, that the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall not be less than one month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall have been determined to be less than twelve (12) months and, after the date on which such determination is made, an Early Redemption Event shall occur with respect to any outstanding Principal Sharing Series other than Series 2015-II, the Accumulation Period will begin on the earlier of (i) the first day of the Monthly Period immediately succeeding the date that such Early Redemption Event shall have occurred with respect to such Series and (ii) the date on which the Accumulation Period is then scheduled to commence.
22
(b) Suspension of the Accumulation Period.
(i) The Issuer may elect to suspend the start of the Accumulation Period. The start of the Accumulation Period shall be suspended upon delivery by the Issuer to the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of (i) an Officers Certificate stating that the Issuer has elected to suspend the start of the Accumulation Period and that all conditions precedent to such suspension set forth in this subsection 4.03(b) have been satisfied, (ii) a copy of an executed Qualified Maturity Agreement, (iii) a Tax Opinion with respect to such suspension and (iv) delivery of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer as to the due authorization, execution and delivery and the validity, legality and enforceability of such Qualified Maturity Agreement. The Issuer shall give the Rating Agencies written notice and a copy of any Qualified Maturity Agreement entered into by it. The Issuer does hereby transfer, assign, set-over, and otherwise convey to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, without recourse, all of its rights under any Qualified Maturity Agreement obtained in accordance with this subsection 4.03(b) and all proceeds thereof. Such property shall constitute part of the Trust Estate for all purposes of the Indenture and this Supplement. The foregoing transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Indenture Trustee or any Series 2015-II Noteholder of any obligation of the Issuer or any other Person in connection with a Qualified Maturity Agreement or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto.
The Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledges its acceptance, to the extent validly transferred, assigned, set-over or otherwise conveyed to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, of all of the rights previously held by the Issuer under any Qualified Maturity Agreement obtained by the 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 2015-II Noteholders.
(ii) The Issuer shall cause the provider of each Qualified Maturity Agreement to deposit into the Principal Funding Account before the Expected Principal Payment Date an amount equal to the Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date; provided, however, that the Issuer may instead elect to fund all or a portion of such deposit with the proceeds of the issuance of a new Series but such election shall not relieve the provider of the Qualified Maturity Agreement of its obligation thereunder except to the extent of such proceeds deposited by the Issuer in the Principal Funding Account. The amount deposited shall be applied on the Business Day preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date pursuant to subsection 4.06(b) as if the start of the Accumulation Period had not been suspended. For the avoidance of doubt, as set forth in the preceding sentence and subsection 4.06(b), nothing in this Supplement shall be deemed to require the
23
Issuer to cause the provider of any Qualified Maturity Agreement to deposit into the Principal Funding Account more than the Adjusted Allocation Amount as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date.
(iii) Each Qualified Maturity Agreement shall terminate after the close of business on the Expected Principal Payment Date; provided, however, that the Issuer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to such Distribution Date if (i) it obtains a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement, (ii) the provider of the Qualified Maturity Agreement ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution and the Issuer is unable to obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement or (iii) an Early Redemption Event occurs. In addition, the Issuer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to the later of the close of business on the last day of the June 2019 Monthly Period and the date to which the start of the Accumulation Period may be postponed pursuant to subsection 4.03(a) (as determined on the Determination Date preceding the date of such termination), in which case the start of the Accumulation Period shall be determined as if the Issuer had not elected to suspend such start. The Issuer shall provide written notice of any termination of a Qualified Maturity Agreement specifying the reason why it was terminated to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that the provider of a Qualified Maturity Agreement ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution, the Issuer shall (x) provide written notice thereof to each Rating Agency and (y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement.
(iv) If a Qualified Maturity Agreement is terminated prior to the earlier of the Expected Principal Payment Date and the start of the Early Redemption Period and the Issuer does not obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement, the Accumulation Period shall start on the latest of (i) the close of business on the last day of the June 2019 Monthly Period, (ii) at the election of the Issuer, the date to which the start of the Accumulation Period may be postponed pursuant to subsection 4.03(a) (as determined on the date of such termination) and (iii) the first day of the Monthly Period following the date of such termination.
(c) Principal Funding Account.
(i) The Servicer shall establish and maintain in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the Principal Funding Account), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. The Principal Funding Account shall be established with the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Principal Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Principal Funding Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the
24
Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within ten (10) Business Days establish a new Principal Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Principal Funding Account.
(ii) Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer. Any investment instructions required to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Indenture Trustee no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Indenture Trustee does not receive such investment instruction on such date, or the investment instruction is received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, and the investment is not made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, all funds shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in an interest bearing demand cash account of U.S. Bank National Association which qualifies as one of the Eligible Investments described in clause (b) of the definition of Eligible Investments. In the event the Indenture Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by the Indenture Trustee after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for the selection of Eligible Investments or for investment losses incurred thereon, except with respect to investments on which the institution acting as the Indenture Trustee is an obligor. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment direction. Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Principal Funding Account to be made on the immediately following Distribution Date, shall be invested in such Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. The Indenture Trustee shall hold such Eligible Investments as provided in Section 6.14 of the Indenture; provided, that on each Distribution Date all interest and other investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) (Principal Funding Investment Proceeds) on funds on deposit therein shall be applied as set forth in paragraph (iii) below. Unless the Servicer directs otherwise, funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account on a Transfer Date (which immediately precedes a Distribution Date) upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments are not required to be invested overnight. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment before its maturity, at the written direction of the Servicer, if such sale, liquidation or disposal would not result in a loss of all or part of the principal portion of such Eligible Investment or if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment.
25
(iii) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period and on the first Special Payment Date, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit into the Collection Account all Principal Funding Investment Proceeds then on deposit in the Principal Funding Account and such Principal Funding Investment Proceeds shall be treated as Available Finance Charge Collections.
(iv) Reinvested interest and other investment income on funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account shall not be considered to be principal amounts on deposit therein for purposes of this Supplement.
(v) The Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out Indenture Trustees duties hereunder. Pursuant to the authority granted to the Paying Agent in Section 5.01 of this Supplement and Section 2.08 of the Indenture, the Paying Agent shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee, to withdraw funds from the Principal Funding Account for the purpose of making distributions to the Series 2015-II Noteholders.

(h) if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to Series 2015-II and the maturity of the Series 2015-II Notes shall have been accelerated under Section 5.03 of the Indenture, an amount, if any, equal to the Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date minus the amounts, if any, on deposit in the Principal Funding Account available to pay principal on the Series 2015-II Notes on such Distribution Date will be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;
(i) on each Distribution Date from and after the Reserve Account Funding Date, but prior to the date on which the Reserve Account terminates pursuant to subsection 4.12(f), an amount up to the excess, if any, of the Required Reserve Account Amount for such Distribution Date over the Available Reserve Account Amount for such Distribution Date shall be deposited into the Reserve Account;

(l) the balance, if any, will constitute a portion of Excess Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date and will be available for allocation as described in Section 8.04 of the Indenture and Section 4.09.
Section 4.06. Application of Available Principal Collections. The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to apply by written instruction to the Indenture Trustee, on each Distribution Date, Available Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date to make the following distributions:
(a) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections remaining on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied in accordance with Section 8.04 of the Indenture and Section 4.10.
(b) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

(iii) third, to the Class C Noteholders until the Class C Noteholders have been paid in full; and

Section 4.07. Defaulted Amounts; Reduction Amounts. On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Series Default Amount and any Uncovered Dilution Amount for the related Distribution Date. If, on any Distribution Date, the sum of the Series Default Amount and any Uncovered Dilution Amount for the related Monthly Period exceeds the sum of the Available Funds allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.05(f) for such Distribution Date, the Allocation Amount will be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of such excess, but not by more than the Series Default Amount for such Distribution
29
Date (a Reduction Amount). Reduction Amounts shall thereafter be reimbursed and the Allocation Amount increased (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate unreimbursed Reduction Amounts) on any Distribution Date by the amount of Available Funds allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.05(g).
Section 4.08. Reallocated Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date, if Available Finance Charge Collections are not sufficient to make the distributions and deposits set forth in subsections 4.05 (a), (b), (c), and (d) (after giving effect to any withdrawal from the Spread Account to cover the payment described in subsection 4.05 (d)), the Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to apply by written instructions to the Indenture Trustee, Available Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution Date, in an amount not to exceed the Monthly Principal Reallocation Amount for the related Monthly Period, to fund any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in such subsections. On each Distribution Date, the Allocation Amount shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections, if any, for such Distribution Date. Reallocated Principal Collections shall thereafter be reimbursed and the Allocation Amount increased (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate unreimbursed Reallocated Principal Collections) on any Distribution Date by the amount of Available Funds allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.05(g).
Section 4.09. Excess Finance Charge Collections. Series 2015-II shall be an Excess Allocation Series. Subject to Section 8.04 of the Indenture, Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to all the Excess Allocation Series in Group I for any Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 2015-II in an amount equal to the product of (x) the aggregate amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to all the Excess Allocation Series in Group I for such Distribution Date and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Finance Charge Shortfall for Series 2015-II for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Finance Charge Shortfalls for all the Excess Allocation Series in Group I for such Distribution Date. The Finance Charge Shortfall for Series 2015-II for any Distribution Date will be equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the full amount required to be paid, without duplication, pursuant to subsections 4.05(a) through (g) and (i) through (k) on such Distribution Date over (b) the Available Finance Charge Collections available to pay such amounts on such Distribution Date.
Section 4.10. Shared Principal Collections. Series 2015-II shall be a Principal Sharing Series. Subject to Section 8.04 of the Indenture, Shared Principal Collections with respect to all Principal Sharing Series in Group I for any Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 2015-II in an amount equal to the product of (x) the aggregate amount of Shared Principal Collections with respect to all Principal Sharing Series in Group I for such Distribution Date and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Principal Shortfall for Series 2015-II for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all the Series which are Principal Sharing Series in Group I for such Distribution Date. The Principal Shortfall for Series 2015-II will be equal to (a) for any Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period, zero, (b) for any Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period, the excess, if any, of the Controlled Deposit Amount, over the amount of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections) and (c) for any Distribution Date with respect to the Early Redemption Period, the excess, if any, of the Allocation Amount over the amount of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections).

Section 4.11. Spread Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the Spread Account) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders. The Spread Account shall be established with the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders, shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and other property from time to time credited to or on deposit in the Spread Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Spread Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders. If at any time the Spread Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within ten (10) Business Days establish a new Spread Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer all funds and other property to such new Spread Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Spread Account from time to time in an amount up to the Available Spread Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set forth in this Supplement, and (ii) on each Distribution Date prior to the termination of the Spread Account make a deposit into the Spread Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with, subsection 4.05(j).
(b) Funds on deposit in the Spread Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments. Any investment instructions required to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Indenture Trustee no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Indenture Trustee does not receive such investment instruction on such date, or the investment instruction is received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, and the investment is not made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, all funds shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in an interest bearing demand cash account of U.S. Bank National Association which qualifies as one of the Eligible Investments described in clause (b) of the definition of Eligible Investments. In the event the Indenture Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by the Indenture Trustee after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for the selection of Eligible Investments or for investment losses incurred thereon, except with respect to
31
investments on which the institution acting as the Indenture Trustee is an obligor. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment direction. Funds on deposit in the Spread Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Spread Account to be made on the immediately following Distribution Date, shall be invested in such Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal prior to the following Transfer Date. The Indenture Trustee shall hold such Eligible Investments as provided in Section 6.14 of the Indenture. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity. Funds and other property credited to the Spread Account on a Transfer Date with respect to the immediately succeeding Distribution Date shall, as may be agreed to by the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, be invested in Eligible Investments that mature on such immediately succeeding Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses for the account of the Issuer, if any) paid since the preceding Distribution Date on funds on deposit in the Spread Account shall be retained in the Spread Account (to the extent that the Available Spread Account Amount is less than the Required Spread Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited in the Collection Account and treated as Available Finance Charge Collections. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Spread Account for any reason under this Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(c) In the event that for any Distribution Date (x) the amount required to be applied pursuant to subsections 4.05(d) and (e) exceeds (y) the amount of Available Funds available to pay such amount, with respect to such Distribution Date (any such excess, the Spread Account Draw Amount), the Spread Account Draw Amount, up to the Available Spread Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Spread Account on such Distribution Date by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Servicer), and distributed on such Distribution Date in accordance with the priority set forth in subsections 4.05(d) and (e). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Section 4.11, if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to Series 2015-II and the maturity of the Series 2015-II Notes shall have been accelerated under Section 5.03 of the Indenture, any amounts remaining on deposit in the Spread Account shall be withdrawn from the Spread Account by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer) and applied to pay the following amounts due and payable in the following order of priority: (i) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class C Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class C Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class C Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class C Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class C Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class C Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class C Noteholders and (y) the Class C Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class C Noteholders; (ii) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class D Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class D Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class D Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class D Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class D Additional Interest previously due but
32
not distributed to the Class D Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class D Noteholders and (y) the Class D Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class D Noteholders; (iii) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class A Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class A Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Noteholders; provided, however, that if the amount available for distribution pursuant to this subsection 4.11(c)(iii)(x) is insufficient to make such distribution in full to both the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders, then the amount available shall be distributed ratably to the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders based on their Pro-Rata Share, and (y) the Class A Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Noteholders; provided, however, that if the amount available for distribution pursuant to this subsection 4.11(c)(iii)(y) is insufficient to make such distribution in full to both the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders, then the amount available shall be distributed ratably to the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders based on their Pro-Rata Share; (iv) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class B Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class B Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class B Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders and (y) the Class B Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders; and (v) all withdrawn amounts remaining, if any, shall be distributed to the Issuer (or if the Issuer has been terminated, the Transferor) for application pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
(d) On the earlier of the Stated Maturity Date and the Series Termination Date, after applying any funds on deposit in the Spread Account as described in subsection 4.11(c), the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer) shall withdraw from the Spread Account an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Class C Note Principal Balance and (ii) the Available Spread Account Amount, and distribute such amount to the Class C Noteholders. At such time as the Class C Note Principal Balance has been paid in full, the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer) shall withdraw from the Spread Account an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Class D Note Principal Balance and (ii) the remaining Available Spread Account Amount, and distribute such amount to the Class D Noteholders. On the date on which the Class D Note Principal Balance has been paid in full, the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer) shall withdraw from the Spread Account all amounts then remaining in the Spread Account and pay such amounts to the holders of the Transferor Interest. The Spread Account shall thereafter be deemed to have been terminated for purposes of this Supplement.
33
(e) In the event there is a Spread Account Surplus on any Distribution Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from the Spread Account with respect to such Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee, acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Servicer, shall withdraw an amount equal to the Spread Account Surplus from the Spread Account, and shall pay such amount to the holders of the Transferor Interest.
Section 4.12. Reserve Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the Reserve Account) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. The Reserve Account shall initially be established with the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. If at any time the Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days, as to which the Rating Agencies shall consent) establish a new Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Reserve Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Reserve Account from time to time in an amount up to the Available Reserve Account Amount at such time for the purposes set forth in this Supplement, and (ii) on each Distribution Date (from and after the Reserve Account Funding Date) prior to the termination of the Reserve Account, make a deposit into the Reserve Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with, subsection 4.05(i).
(b) Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Reserve Account on such Transfer Date, shall be invested in such investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. The Indenture Trustee shall hold such Eligible Investments as provided in Section 6.14 of the Indenture. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment before its maturity, at the written direction of the Servicer, if such sale, liquidation or disposal would not result in a loss of all or part of the principal portion of such Eligible Investment or if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment. On each Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding Distribution Date on funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be retained in the Reserve Account (to the extent that the Available Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required Reserve Account Amount) and the
34
balance, if any, shall be deposited in the Collection Account and treated as Available Finance Charge Collections. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to investment earnings retained in the Reserve Account, for purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Reserve Account for any reason under this Supplement, investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(c) On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period and the first Special Payment Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Reserve Draw Amount, which shall be equal to the excess, if any, of the Covered Amount with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date over the Principal Funding Investment Proceeds with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date; provided, that such amount will be reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available for deposit in the Reserve Account under subsection 4.05(i) with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date.
(d) In the event that, for any Distribution Date, the Reserve Draw Amount is greater than zero, the Reserve Draw Amount, up to the Available Reserve Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Reserve Account on the related Distribution Date by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer), deposited into the Collection Account and included in Available Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date.

Section 4.13. Determination of LIBOR.
(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee will determine LIBOR, which shall be the rate per annum for deposits in United States dollars for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period which appears on the Reuters Screen LIBOR 01 Page as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such date; provided, however, that with respect to the first Interest Period, LIBOR will be determined by straight-line
36
interpolation, based on the actual number of days in the first Interest Period, between two rates determined in accordance with this subsection 4.13(a), one of which will be determined for a maturity of two months and one of which will be determined for a period of three months. Upon such determination, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Servicer of LIBOR for such LIBOR Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on the Reuters Screen LIBOR 01 Page, the rate for the LIBOR Determination Date will 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 equal to the relevant Interest Period. The Indenture Trustee will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, LIBOR for such Interest Period will be LIBOR in effect for the immediately preceding Interest Period.
(b) The Servicer shall determine, and promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of, the Class A Note Rate for the applicable Interest Period. The Class A Note Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by any Series 2015-II Noteholder by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at 60 Livingston Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota 55107, telephone number (800)  ###-###-####.
(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Servicer by facsimile, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period.
Section 4.14. Cash Collateral Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the Cash Collateral Account) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. The Cash Collateral Account shall be established with the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders, shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and other property from time to time credited to or on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Cash Collateral Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2015-II Noteholders. If at any time the Cash Collateral Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within ten (10) Business Days establish a new Cash Collateral Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer all funds and other property to such new Cash Collateral Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Cash Collateral Account from time to time in an amount up to the Available Cash Collateral Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set forth in this Supplement, and (ii) on each Distribution Date prior to the termination of the Cash Collateral Account make a deposit into the Cash Collateral Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with, subsection 4.05(k).
37
(b) Funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments. Any investment instructions required to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Indenture Trustee no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Indenture Trustee does not receive such investment instruction on such date, or the investment instruction is received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, and the investment is not made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, all funds shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in an interest bearing demand cash account of U.S. Bank National Association which qualifies as one of the Eligible Investments described in clause (b) of the definition of Eligible Investments. In the event the Indenture Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by the Indenture Trustee after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for the selection of Eligible Investments or for investment losses incurred thereon, except with respect to investments on which the institution acting as the Indenture Trustee is an obligor. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment direction. Funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Cash Collateral Account to be made on the immediately following Distribution Date, shall be invested in such Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal prior to the following Transfer Date. The Indenture Trustee shall hold such Eligible Investments as provided in Section 6.14 of the Indenture. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity. Funds and other property credited to the Cash Collateral Account on a Transfer Date with respect to the immediately succeeding Distribution Date shall, as may be agreed to by the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, be invested in Eligible Investments that mature on such immediately succeeding Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses for the account of the Issuer, if any) paid since the preceding Distribution Date on funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall be retained in the Cash Collateral Account (to the extent that the Available Cash Collateral Account Amount is less than the Required Cash Collateral Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited in the Collection Account and treated as Available Finance Charge Collections. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Cash Collateral Account for any reason under this Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
38
(c) In the event that for any Distribution Date (x) the amount required to be applied pursuant to subsections 4.05(a), (b), (d) and (e) exceeds (y) the sum of the amount of Available Funds available to pay such amounts with respect to such Distribution Date, plus, in the case of the amounts described in subsections 4.05(d) and (e), any amounts withdrawn from the Spread Account pursuant to subsection 4.11(c) with respect to such Distribution Date, plus, in the case of the amounts described in subsections 4.05(a), (b) and (d), any Reallocated Principal Collections applied pursuant to Section 4.08 to fund any deficiencies in such amounts on such Distribution Date (any such excess, the Cash Collateral Account Draw Amount), the Cash Collateral Account Draw Amount, up to the Available Cash Collateral Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account on such Distribution Date by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Servicer), and distributed on such Distribution Date in accordance with the priority set forth in subsections 4.05(a), (b), (d) and (e). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Section 4.14, if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to Series 2015-II and the maturity of the Series 2015-II Notes shall have been accelerated under Section 5.03 of the Indenture, any amounts remaining on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall be withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer) and applied to pay the following amounts due and payable in the following order of priority: (i) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class A Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class A Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Noteholders; provided, however, that if the amount available for distribution pursuant to this subsection 4.14(c)(i)(x) is insufficient to make such distribution in full to both the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders, then the amount available shall be distributed ratably to the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders based on their Pro-Rata Share, and (y) the Class A Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Noteholders; provided, however, that if the amount available for distribution pursuant to this subsection 4.14(c)(i)(y) is insufficient to make such distribution in full to both the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders, then the amount available shall be distributed ratably to the Class A-1 Noteholders and the Class A-2 Noteholders based on their Pro-Rata Share; (ii) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class B Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date and (B) any Class B Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class B Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders and (y) the Class B Note Principal Balance on such Distribution Date will be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders; (iii) (x) an amount equal to the sum of (A) Class C Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class C Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class C Noteholders on a prior Distribution Date; and (B) any Class C Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and

If we are acquiring any Class D note, or any interest therein, as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, that we have sole investment discretion with respect to that account and that we have full power to make the acknowledgments, representations and agreements contained herein on behalf of each of those accounts.
D-3
We (1) are a person involved in the organization or operation of the issuer or an affiliate of such a person within the meaning of Rule 3a-7 under the 1940 Act or (2) (a) are a QIB, (b) are aware that the sale to us is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and if we are acquiring those Class D notes or any interest therein for the account of another QIB, that the other QIB is aware that the sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and (c) are acquiring those Class D notes or any interest therein for our own account or for the account of a QIB.
We are purchasing the Class D notes for our own account, or for one or more investor accounts for which we are acting as fiduciary or agent, in each case for investment, and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, subject to any requirements of law that the disposition of our property or the property of that investor account or accounts be at all times within our or their control and subject to our or their ability to resell those Class D notes, or any interest therein, as described herein and as provided in the master indenture or the Supplement.
We agree that if in the future we should offer, sell or otherwise transfer that Class D note or any interest therein, we will do so only (A) to the issuer or a person involved in the organization or operation of the issuer or an affiliate of such a person within the meaning of Rule 3a-7 under the 1940 Act or its affiliates or (B) pursuant to Rule 144A to a person who we reasonably believe is a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, purchasing for its own account or for the account of a QIB, whom we have informed that such offer, sale or other transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A.

We agree that we will not transfer any Class D notes or any interest therein without the prior written consent of WFB Funding, LLC, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (it being understood that such consent shall be considered to be withheld reasonably on the basis that following such proposed transfer the number of Private Holders would exceed 80 or the issuer would otherwise be in jeopardy of being treated as a publicly traded partnership pursuant to Section 7704 of the Code).
We are and will remain the beneficial owner for United States Federal income tax purposes and we are and will remain a United States person for such purposes, in each case for so long as we hold any interest in a Class D note.

We are properly classified as, and shall remain classified as, a corporation as described in Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code and are not, and so long as we shall be an owner of the Class D notes will not become, an S Corporation (within the meaning of Section 1361(a) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, a partnership or a grantor trust, in each case as described in the Code. In the event of any breach of our representation, warranty and covenant in this paragraph, we will (i) notify WFB Funding, LLC promptly upon us becoming aware of such
D-4
breach, and we will use reasonable efforts to procure a replacement investor not so affected that is acceptable to WFB Funding, LLC to replace us, and (ii) take all actions necessary to permit a replacement investor to succeed to its rights under the Class D notes. In any such event we agree that WFB Funding, LLC may procure such replacement investor.
We represent, warrant and covenant that we have not acquired, and shall not sell, trade or transfer any interest in the Class D notes, nor cause any interest in the Class D notes to be marketed on or through either (i) an established securities market (or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and any Treasury Regulation thereunder (including an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations by identified brokers or dealers by electronic means or otherwise) or (ii) a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Code Section 7704(b)(2) of the Code and any Treasury Regulation thereunder (including a market wherein interests in the Class D notes are regularly quoted by any person making a market in such interests and a market wherein any person regularly makes available bid or offer quotes with respect to interests in the Class D notes and stands ready to effect buy or sell transactions at the quoted prices for itself or on behalf of others).
