          (f) Allocations of Amounts Withdrawn from the Overconcentration Account to the Series
2007-1 Notes. With respect to each Monthly Period, the Indenture Trustee, at the direction of
the Servicer, shall allocate to the Series 2007-1 Notes an amount equal to the product of (A) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the last day of such
Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the sum of the Nominal Liquidation Amount and the
aggregate nominal liquidation amounts of all Outstanding Series, in each case as of the last day of
such Monthly Period and (B) the amount withdrawn from the Overconcentration Account pursuant to
subsection 3.5(c) of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

          Section 4.02 Determination of Monthly Interest.



          (a) The amount of monthly interest (“Class A Monthly Interest”) distributable from the
Collection Account with respect to the Class A Notes on any Payment Date shall be an amount equal
to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period
from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment
Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360,
(ii) the Class A Note Interest Rate then in effect for the related Interest Period and (iii) the
Outstanding Principal Dollar Amount of the Class A Notes as of the close of business on the
immediately preceding Record Date.



          On the Note Transfer Date preceding each Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine the
excess, if any (the “Class A Interest Shortfall”), of (x) the Class A Monthly Interest for
such Payment Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Class
A Monthly Interest on such Payment Date. If the Class A Interest Shortfall with respect to any
Payment Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Payment Date until such Class A Interest
Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class A Additional Interest”) equal to the
product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from
and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date,
the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the
sum of (x) the Class A Note Interest Rate in effect for the related Interest Period and (y) 2.0%
per annum and (iii) such Class A Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid
to the Class A Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class A Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class A Additional Interest shall be payable or
distributed to the Class A Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.



          (b) The amount of monthly interest (“Class B Monthly Interest”) distributable from the
Collection Account with respect to the Class B Notes on any Payment Date shall be an amount equal
to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period
from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment
Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360,
(ii) the Class B Note Interest Rate then in effect for the related Interest Period and (iii) the
Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class B Notes as of the close of business on the
immediately preceding Record Date.



          On the Note Transfer Date preceding each Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine the
excess, if any (the “Class B Interest Shortfall”), of (x) the Class B Monthly Interest for
such Payment Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Class
B Monthly Interest on such Payment Date. If the Class B Interest Shortfall with respect to any
Payment Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Payment Date until such Class B Interest
Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class B Additional Interest”) equal to the
product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from
and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date,
the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the
sum of (x) the Class B Note Interest Rate in effect for the related Interest Period and (y) 2.0%
per annum and (iii) such Class B Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof



21









 







which has not been paid to the Class B Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with
respect to the Class B Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class B Additional
Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class B Noteholders only to the extent permitted by
applicable law.



          (c) The amount of monthly interest (“Class C Monthly Interest”) distributable from the
Collection Account with respect to the Class C Notes on any Payment Date shall be an amount equal
to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period
from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment
Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360,
(ii) the Class C Note Interest Rate then in effect for the related Interest Period and (iii) the
Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C Notes as of the close of business on the
immediately preceding Record Date; provided, however, that in the event the Class C Note Interest
Rate has been modified (as described in the definition thereof) during the period from and
including the preceding Payment Date to but excluding such Payment Date, the rate described in (ii)
above shall reflect a weighted average rate calculated on the basis of the actual number of days
each Class C Note Interest Rate was in effect during such period and a year of 360 days.



          On the Note Transfer Date preceding each Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine an amount
(the “Class C Interest Shortfall”) equal to (x) the aggregate Class C Monthly Interest for
such Payment Date minus (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Class
C Monthly Interest on such Payment Date. If the Class C Interest Shortfall with respect to any
Payment Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Payment Date until such Class C Interest
Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class C Additional Interest”) equal to the
product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from
and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date,
the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the
sum of (x) the Class C Note Interest Rate in effect for the related Interest Period and (y) 2.0%
per annum and (iii) such Class C Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid
to the Class C Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class C Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class C Additional Interest shall be payable or
distributed to Class C Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.



          Section 4.03 Determination of Monthly Principal. The amount of monthly principal
allocated and made available from the Collection Account with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes on
each Payment Date (the “Monthly Principal”), shall be equal to (a) during the Revolving
Period, zero and (b) beginning with the Payment Date in the month following the month in which the
Controlled Accumulation Period or, if earlier, the Early Amortization Period, begins, the least of
(i) the Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with
respect to such Payment Date, (ii) for each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period, the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Payment Date and (iii) the Nominal
Liquidation Amount for such Payment Date (after taking into account any adjustments to be made on
such Payment Date pursuant to Sections 4.05, 4.08 and 4.09).



          Section 4.04 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections.



22









 





          (a) The portion of Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections for any Payment Date equal
to the amount of Series 2007-1 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections for such Payment Date shall
be allocated to Series 2007-1 and will be distributed as set forth in this Indenture Supplement.



          (b) Series 2007-1 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections with respect to any Payment Date
shall equal the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of the Series 2007-1 Monthly Interest, Series
2007-1 Default Amount, Series 2007-1 Fees and Series 2007-1 Additional Amount for such Payment Date
and (ii) that portion of excess Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections to be included in
Series 2007-1 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections pursuant to subsection (c) hereof;
provided, however, that if the amount of Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections for such
Payment Date is less than the sum of (w) Reallocation Group A Interest, (x) Reallocation Group A
Default Amount, (y) Reallocation Group A Fees and (z) Reallocation Group A Additional Amounts, then
Series 2007-1 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections shall equal the sum of the following amounts
for such Payment Date:




	 	(A)	 	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A
Finance Charge Collections and (2) Reallocation Group A Interest and (II) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Series 2007-1 Monthly Interest and the
denominator of which is Reallocation Group A Interest;
	 
	 	(B)	 	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A
Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Reallocation Group A Interest and
(2) the Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (II) a fraction, the numerator
of which is the Series 2007-1 Default Amount and the denominator of which is
the Reallocation Group A Default Amount;
	 
	 	(C)	 	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A
Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Reallocation Group A Interest and
the Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (2) Reallocation Group A Fees and
(II) a fraction, the numerator of which is Series 2007-1 Fees and the
denominator of which is Reallocation Group A Fees; and
	 
	 	(D)	 	the product of (I) Reallocation Group A Finance Charge
Collections less the sum of (1) Reallocation Group A Interest, (2) the
Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (3) Reallocation Group A Fees and (II)
a fraction, the numerator of which is Series 2007-1 Additional Amount and the
denominator of which is Reallocation Group A Additional Amounts.





          (c) If the amount of Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections for any Payment Date
exceeds the sum of (i) Reallocation Group A Interest, (ii) the Reallocation Group A Default Amount,
(iii) Reallocation Group A Fees and (iv) Reallocation Group A Additional Amounts, then Series
2007-1 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections for such Payment Date shall include an amount equal
to the product of (x) the amount of such excess and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the last day of
the second preceding Monthly Period (or, with respect to the first Payment Date, as of the
Closing Date) and the denominator of which is the sum of such Nominal Liquidation Amount



23









 







and the
aggregate nominal liquidation amounts for all other Series included in Reallocation Group A as of
such last day (or, for Series 2007-1, with respect to the first Payment Date, as of the Closing
Date).



          Section 4.05 Application of Series 2007-1 Available Finance Charge Collections on Deposit
in the Collection Account. The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to
apply by written instruction to the Indenture Trustee, on each Payment Date, Series 2007-1

Payment Date to make the following distributions in the following priority:




     (a) an amount equal to Class A Monthly Interest for such Payment Date, plus the amount

Section 3.1 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement);




     (e) an amount equal to the Series 2007-1 Default Amount for such Payment Date shall be
treated as a portion of Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections for such Payment Date;




     (f) an amount (the “Series 2007-1 Additional Amount”) equal to the sum of the
aggregate amount of Investor Charge-Offs and the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections
which have not previously been reimbursed shall be used to reimburse such



24









 







amount pursuant to
this subsection 4.05(f) and treated as Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections

subsection 4.12(f), an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Required
Accumulation Reserve Account Amount over the Available Accumulation Reserve Account Amount
shall be deposited into the Accumulation Reserve Account;




     (h) to make the targeted deposit to the Class C Reserve Account, if any, pursuant to
Section 4.13;




     (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Series 2007-1 and

the Indenture, the balance, if any, up to the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount, less the
amount of Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections allocated to Series 2007-1 on such
Payment Date (other than pursuant to this clause (i)), shall be treated as Series 2007-1
Available Principal Collections for such Payment Date; and




     (j) the balance, if any, shall constitute a portion of Shared Excess Available Finance
Charge Collections for such Payment Date and shall be available for allocation to other
Series in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A, to the extent needed,
and thereafter paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest.



          Section 4.06 Application of Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections.



          (a) On each Payment Date with respect to the Revolving Period, an amount equal to Series
2007-1 Available Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account with respect to the
related Monthly Period shall be treated as Shared Excess Available Principal Collections with
respect to such Monthly Period.



          (b) On each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period or the Early
Amortization Period, an amount equal to the Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections deposited
in the Collection Account for the related Monthly Period shall be distributed or deposited in the
following order of priority:




          (i) during the Controlled Accumulation Period and prior to the payment in full of the
Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes, an amount equal to the Monthly
Principal for such Payment Date shall be deposited into the Principal Funding Account in an
amount not to exceed the Controlled Deposit Amount;




          (ii) during the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to the Monthly Principal for
such Payment Date shall be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A
Noteholders on such Payment Date and on each subsequent Payment Date until the Class A
Stated Principal Amount has been paid in full;



25









 






          (iii) after giving effect to the distribution referred to in clause (ii) above, during
the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to the Monthly Principal remaining, if any,
shall be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders on such
Payment Date and on each subsequent Payment Date until the Class B Stated Principal Amount

          (vi) to be treated as part of the Reinvestment Amount.



          (c) On the earlier to occur of (i) the first Payment Date with respect to the Early
Amortization Period and (ii) the Expected Final Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee, acting in
accordance with instructions from the Servicer, shall withdraw from the Principal Funding Account
and distribute to the Paying Agent for payment first, to the Class A Noteholders up to the Class A
Stated Principal Amount, second, to the Class B Noteholders up to the Class B Stated Principal
Amount and third, to the Class C Noteholders up to the Class C Stated Principal Amount, the amounts
deposited into the Principal Funding Account pursuant to subsection 4.06(b)(i).



          Section 4.07 Principal Funding Account; Controlled Accumulation Period.



          (a) (i) The Issuer shall cause to be established and maintained, in the name of the Indenture
Trustee, an Eligible Deposit Account (the “Principal Funding Account”), bearing a
designation clearly indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the
benefit of the Series 2007-1 Noteholders. The Principal Funding Account shall be held by the
Indenture Trustee in accordance with subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture.



               (ii) At the written direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit in the Principal Funding
Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the
Servicer. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of
the Series 2007-1 Noteholders; provided that on each Payment Date, all interest and other
investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) (“Principal Funding 
Account Investment Proceeds”) on funds on deposit therein shall be applied as set
forth in paragraph (iii) below. Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall be
invested in Eligible Investments that shall mature so that such funds shall be available at the
close of business on the Note Transfer Date preceding the following Payment Date. Unless the
Servicer directs otherwise, funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account on a Note Transfer
Date (which immediately precedes a Payment Date) upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments are



26









 







not required to be invested overnight. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to
its maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any
such Eligible Investment 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;
provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Indenture
Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 8.01 of the
Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency
in such Principal Funding Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included
therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such
Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance
with their terms.



               (iii) On each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, 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 Account Investment Proceeds then on
deposit in the Principal Funding Account and such Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds
shall be treated as a portion of Series 2007-1 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 Indenture Supplement.



          (b) (i) The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and
property from time to time credited to the Principal Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof.
The Principal Funding Account shall be under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee for the
benefit of the Series 2007-1 Noteholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding Account ceases to
be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within
ten Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Note
Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Principal Funding Account meeting the conditions
specified in paragraph (a)(i) above as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any funds or
other property to such new Principal Funding Account.



          (ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in Section 4.1 of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power to instruct the Indenture Trustee to
make withdrawals and payments from the Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out
the Servicer’s or Indenture Trustee’s duties hereunder.



          (c) The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence at the close of business on
the last day of the July 2010 Monthly Period; provided, however, that if the
Controlled Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) is less than two months,
then the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences may, at the option of
the Transferor, be delayed to the close of business on the last day of the August 2010 Monthly
Period and, as a result, the number of Monthly Periods in the Controlled Accumulation Period will
equal one. On the Note Transfer Date immediately preceding the July 2010 Payment Date, the
Servicer shall determine the “Controlled Accumulation Period Length,”



27









 







which shall equal the
number of months not less than the number of whole calendar months reasonably expected by the
Servicer to be necessary to accumulate from Series 2007-1 Available Principal Collections and
Shared Excess Available Principal Collections expected to be available to Series 2007-1 from other
Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Series during the Controlled Accumulation Period an
amount equal to the Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that the
Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall not be determined to be less than one month.



          Section 4.08 Investor Charge-Offs. On each Note Transfer Date, the Servicer shall
calculate the Series 2007-1 Default Amount, if any, for the related Payment Date. If, on any
Payment Date, the Series 2007-1 Default Amount for the related Monthly Period exceeds the amount
available therefor pursuant to subsection 4.05(e) with respect to such Monthly Period, the
Nominal Liquidation Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more than the
Series 2007-1 Default Amount for such Payment Date (such reduction, an “Investor
Charge-Off”).



          Section 4.09 Reallocated Principal Collections. On each Payment Date, the Servicer
shall apply, to the extent permitted herein, or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to apply, by
written instruction to the Indenture Trustee, Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to
such Payment Date, in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the product of (i) the Series 2007-1
Principal Allocation Percentage and (ii) Principal Collections with respect to the related Monthly
Period and (b) the Monthly Subordination Amount for the preceding Monthly Period in accordance with
the priority set forth in subsections 4.05(a), (b) and (d). On each
Payment Date, the Nominal Liquidation Amount shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated
Principal Collections for such Payment Date.



          Section 4.10 Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections.



          (a) Series 2007-1 shall be included in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections
Group A for the purpose of sharing Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections.



          (b) Unless otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of Section 4.12 of the Indenture,
Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections with respect to any Monthly Period shall be
shared within Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A to cover the applicable
Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfalls for such Monthly Period, if any, and applied
on the Note Transfer Date in the immediately succeeding Monthly Period for each Shared Excess
Available Finance Charge Collections Group Series with a Series Available Finance Charge
Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period. Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections
allocable to Series 2007-1 with respect to each Monthly Period shall mean an amount equal to the
Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall,
if any, with respect to Series 2007-1 for such Monthly Period; provided,
however, that if the aggregate amount of Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections
for all Series in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A for each Monthly
Period is less than the Aggregate Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall for such
Monthly Period, then Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 2007-1
with respect to such Monthly Period shall equal the product of (i) Shared Excess Available



28









 







Finance
Charge Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A for
such Monthly Period and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series Available Finance
Charge Collections Shortfall with respect to Series 2007-1 for such Monthly Period and the
denominator of which is the Aggregate Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall for
such Monthly Period.



          (c) To the extent that Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections exceed the Aggregate
Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall, such excess shall be paid to the holders of
the Transferor Interest.



          Section 4.11 Shared Excess Available Principal Collections.



          (a) Series 2007-1 shall be included in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A
for the purpose of sharing Shared Excess Available Principal Collections.



          (b) Unless otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of Section 4.12 of the Indenture,
Shared Excess Available Principal Collections with respect to any Monthly Period shall be shared
within Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A to cover the applicable Series
Available Principal Collections Shortfalls for such Monthly Period, if any, and applied on the Note
Transfer Date in the immediately succeeding Monthly Period for each Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections Series with a Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for such
Monthly Period. Shared Excess Available Principal Collections allocable to Series 2007-1 with
respect to each Monthly Period shall mean an amount equal to the Series Available Principal
Collections Shortfall, if any, with respect to Series 2007-1 for such Monthly Period;
provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for
each Monthly Period is less than the Aggregate Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for
such Monthly Period, then Shared Excess Available Principal Collections allocable to Series 2007-1
with respect to such Monthly Period shall equal the product of (i) Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for
such Monthly Period and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series Available Principal
Collections Shortfall with respect to Series 2007-1 for such Monthly Period and the denominator of
which is the Aggregate Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period.



          (c) Unless otherwise specified in the Indenture Supplement for any other Series in Shared
Excess Available Principal Collections Group A, any Shared Excess Available Principal Collections
for each Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for any Monthly Period
which shall remain after application pursuant to clause (b) above shall be treated as part of the
Reinvestment Amount for the Note Transfer Date in the next succeeding Monthly Period. Shared
Excess Available Principal Collections will not be available for
application by other Series of Notes that are not included in Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections Group A.

          Section 4.12 Accumulation Reserve Account.



          (a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee an
Eligible Deposit Account (the “Accumulation Reserve Account”) bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the
Series 2007-1 Noteholders. The Accumulation Reserve Account shall be held by the Indenture Trustee
in accordance with subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall
possess all right, title and interest in all funds and property from time to time credited to the
Accumulation Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Accumulation Reserve Account shall
be under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2007-1
Noteholders. If at any time the Accumulation Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit
Account, the Transferor shall notify the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being
notified in writing of such ineligibility (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within 10 Business
Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Note Rating Agency
shall consent) establish a new Accumulation Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above
as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any funds or other property to such new
Accumulation Reserve Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the Servicer, shall (i)
make withdrawals from the Accumulation Reserve Account from time to time in an amount up to the
Available Accumulation Reserve Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set forth in this
Indenture Supplement, and (ii) on each Payment Date (from and after the Accumulation Reserve
Account Funding Date) prior to the termination of the Accumulation Reserve Account make a deposit
into the Accumulation Reserve Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with,
subsection 4.05(g).



          (b) Funds on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be invested at the written
direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in
the Accumulation Reserve Account on any Note Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals
from the Accumulation Reserve Account on such Note Transfer Date, shall be invested in such
investments that shall mature so that such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to
the following Note Transfer Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its
maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any
such Eligible Investment 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;
provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Indenture
Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 8.01 of the
Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency
in such Accumulation Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included
therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such
Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance
with their terms. On each Payment Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) accrued since the preceding Payment Date on funds on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve
Account shall be retained in the Accumulation Reserve Account (to the extent that the Available
Accumulation Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required Accumulation Reserve Account Amount)
and the balance, if any, shall be
deposited in the Collection Account and treated as Series 2007-1 Available Finance Charge
Collections. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the
Accumulation Reserve Account for any reason under this Indenture 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) On the Note Transfer Date preceding each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period and on or before the first Payment Date with respect to the Early Amortization
Period, the Servicer shall calculate the “Accumulation Reserve Draw Amount” which shall be
equal to the excess, if any, of the Covered Amount with respect to such Payment Date over the
Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds with respect to such Payment Date; provided that such
amount shall be reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available for deposit in the
Accumulation Reserve Account under subsection 4.05(g) with respect to such Payment Date.



          (d) In the event that for any Payment Date the Accumulation Reserve Draw Amount is greater
than zero, the Accumulation Reserve Draw Amount, up to the Available Accumulation Reserve Account
Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Accumulation Reserve Account on the related Note Transfer Date
by the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer) and deposited
into the Collection Account for application as Series 2007-1 Available Finance Charge Collections
for such Payment Date.



          (e) In the event that the Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus on any Payment Date, after
giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from the Accumulation Reserve Account with respect
to such Payment Date, is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the
instructions of the Servicer) shall withdraw from the Accumulation Reserve Account, and pay to the
Owner Trustee for distribution in accordance with the Trust Agreement an amount equal to such
Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus.



          (f) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the day on which the Nominal Liquidation Amount is
reduced to zero, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes
and acceleration of such Series 2007-1 Notes pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture,
(iii) the first Payment Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, (iv) the Expected Final
Payment Date and (v) the termination of the Trust pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer) after the prior payment of all
amounts owing to the Series 2007-1 Noteholders which are payable from the Accumulation Reserve
Account as provided herein, shall withdraw from the Accumulation Reserve Account and pay to the
holders of the Transferor Interest all amounts, if any, on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve
Account and the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be deemed to have terminated for purposes of
this Indenture Supplement.



          (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following an Event of Default with respect to the Series
2007-1 Notes and acceleration of such Series 2007-1 Notes, any Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus
or other amounts on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be applied toward payment of
any amounts owing with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes before such amounts are paid to the
holders of the Transferor Interest.



          Section 4.13 Class C Reserve Account.



          (a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee an
Eligible Deposit Account (the “Class C Reserve Account”) bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Class
C Noteholders. The Class C Reserve Account shall be held by the Indenture Trustee in



31









 







accordance
with subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right,
title and interest in all funds and property from time to time credited to the Class C Reserve
Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Class C Reserve Account shall be under the exclusive
control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders. If at any time the
Class C Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Transferor shall notify the
Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified in writing of such ineligibility
(or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed
30 calendar days, as to which each Note Rating Agency shall consent) establish a new Class C
Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall
transfer any funds or other property to such new Class C Reserve Account. The Indenture Trustee,
at the direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Class C Reserve Account from
time to time in an amount up to the Available Class C Reserve Account Amount at such time, for the
purposes set forth in this Indenture Supplement, and (ii) make deposits to the Class C Reserve
Account from time to time in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with,
subsection 4.05(h).



          (b) Funds on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account shall be invested at the written direction
of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in the Class C
Reserve Account on any Note Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Class C
Reserve Account on such Note Transfer Date, shall be invested in such investments that shall mature
so that such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Note Transfer
Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however,
that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment 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; provided further, however,
that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of any such default;
and provided further that, subject to Section 8.01 of the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee
shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Class C Reserve Account
resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable
to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the
Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. On each Payment
Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding
Payment Date on funds on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account shall be retained in the Class C
Reserve Account (to the extent that the Available Class C Reserve Account Amount is less than the
Required Class C Reserve Account Amount) and, to the extent the Series 2007-1 Notes have not been
accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the balance, if any, shall be paid
to the holders of the Transferor Interest. For purposes of determining the availability of funds
or the balance in the Class C Reserve Account for any reason under this Indenture 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) The amount targeted to be on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account for any Payment Date
will be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Class C Reserve Account Percentage for the
related Monthly Period and (ii) the Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that if an
Early Amortization Event or Event of Default occurs with respect to the



32









 







Series 2007-1 Notes, the
amount targeted to be on deposit will be the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C
Notes.



          (d) After the Class C Reserve Account Percentage has been increased to a percentage above 0%
pursuant to any of clauses (ii) through (vi) of the definition thereof or pursuant to the proviso
in the definition thereof, the Class C Reserve Account Percentage shall remain at that percentage
until (A) further increased to a higher required percentage specified in clauses (iii) through (vi)
of the definition thereof or in the proviso in the definition thereof or (B) the Payment Date on
which the Quarterly Excess Spread Percentage has increased to a level above that for the then
current Class C Reserve Account Percentage or the Quarterly Principal Payment Rate is greater than
60%, in which case the Class C Reserve Account Percentage shall be decreased to the appropriate
percentage in clauses (i) through (v) of the definition thereof or in the proviso in the definition
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Early Amortization Event has occurred and is
continuing, or an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes has occurred and is
continuing, the Class C Reserve Account Percentage shall no longer be subject to reduction.



          (e) With respect to any Payment Date, if the amount distributable pursuant to subsection
4.05(c) exceeds the amount available therefor pursuant to subsection 4.05(c), an amount
equal to that deficiency will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and applied in
accordance with subsection 4.05(c).



          (f) If, on and after the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which Collateral is sold
following an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes and acceleration of such
Series 2007-1 Notes pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, (ii) any date on or after
the Expected Final Payment Date on which the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account (to
the extent such amount exceeds the sum of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class A
Notes and the Class B Notes) plus the aggregate amount on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account
with respect to the Class C Notes equal or exceeds the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the
Class C Notes and (iii) the Legal Maturity Date, the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding
Account is insufficient to pay in full the amounts for which withdrawals are required pursuant to
Section 4.06, an amount equal to that deficiency will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve
Account and deposited into the Principal Funding Account to pay principal of the Class C Notes.



          (g) If on any Payment Date with respect to which the Series 2007-1 Notes have not been
accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the aggregate amount on deposit in
the Class C Reserve Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit in the Class C Reserve
Account, the amount of such excess will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and paid to
the holders of the Transferor Interest; provided that, notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary in this Section 4.13, if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to
Series 2007-1 and the maturity of the Series 2007-1 Notes shall have been accelerated under
Section 7.02 of the Indenture, upon the earlier to occur of (1) the
payment in full of all principal and interest owing to the Class A Noteholders and the Class B
Noteholders and (2) the Legal Maturity Date, any amounts remaining on deposit in the Class C
Reserve Account shall be applied to pay all amounts due and



33









 







payable on the Class C Notes first, and
then, to the extent any funds are remaining, shall be applied to pay all amounts due and payable on
the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, if any, in that order, each as provided in Section
7.02 of the Indenture.



          (h) No Transferor shall sell, transfer or assign any interest in the Class C Reserve Account
without (x) the delivery to the Indenture Trustee of an Issuer Tax Opinion and any applicable
Master Trust Tax Opinion and (y) providing prior written notice to the Note Rating Agencies of such
assignment.



          Section 4.14 Investment Instructions. 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 10:30 a.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 is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by
the Indenture Trustee after 10:30 a.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
10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made.



          Section 4.15 Determination of LIBOR.



          (a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR for the
related Interest Period, which shall be the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a period
equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Period) that appears on Reuters
Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. Upon such determination, the
Indenture Trustee shall notify the Servicer of LIBOR for such LIBOR Determination Date. If such
rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, the rate for the LIBOR Determination Date
shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are
offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks
in the London interbank market for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such
Interest Period). The Servicer shall 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 shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than
two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be the
arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Servicer, at
approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to
leading European banks for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such
Interest Period). If the banks selected by the Servicer are not quoting rates as provided in the
immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR for such Interest Period shall be LIBOR in effect for the
immediately preceding Interest Period.



          (b) The Servicer shall determine, and promptly notify the Transferor and the Indenture Trustee
of, the Class A Note Interest Rate, the Class B Note Interest Rate and the Class C Note Interest
for the applicable Interest Period. The Class A Note Interest Rate, the Class B Note Interest Rate
and the Class C Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current and the
immediately preceding
Interest Periods may be obtained by any Series 2007-1 Noteholder by telephoning the Indenture
Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at (212) 815-6258.



34









 





          (c) On each LIBOR Determination Date prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, the Indenture
Trustee shall send to the Transferor and the Servicer by facsimile or electronic transmission of
LIBOR for the following Interest Period.



          Section 4.16 Sale of Collateral for Series 2007-1 Notes That Are Accelerated or Reach
Legal Maturity.



          (a) If the Series 2007-1 Notes have been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 of the
Indenture following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction of the
Holders of more than
662/3% of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Series 2007-1 Notes
will, sell Collateral (or interests therein) in an amount (as determined by the Issuer and provided
to the Indenture Trustee) not to exceed the sum of (i) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the
close of business on the day preceding such sale and (ii) the product of (A) the Nominal
Liquidation Amount as of the close of business on the day preceding such sale and (B) the Discount
Option Percentage.



          (b) Such a sale will be permitted only if at least one of the following conditions is met:




     (i) the Holders of more than 90% of the aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal
Amount of the Series 2007-1 Notes consent; or




     (ii) the net proceeds of such sale (plus amounts on deposit in the Issuer
Accounts) would be sufficient to pay all amounts due on the Series 2007-1 Notes; or




     (iii) the Indenture Trustee in consultation with the Servicer determines that
the funds to be allocated to the Series 2007-1 Notes, including (1) Series 2007-1
Available Finance Charge Collections and Series 2007-1 Available Principal
Collections and (2) amounts on deposit in the Issuer Accounts, may not be sufficient
on an ongoing basis to make all payments on the Series 2007-1 Notes as such payments
would have become due if such obligations had not been declared due and payable, and
Series 2007-1 Noteholders evidencing more than 662/3% of the aggregate Outstanding
Dollar Principal Amount of the Series 2007-1 Notes consent to the sale;
provided that the Issuer will provide the Indenture Trustee with the
information reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee to make such
determination.



          (c) If the Nominal Liquidation Amount is greater than zero on the Legal Maturity Date (after
giving effect to any allocations, deposits and payments otherwise to be made on that Legal Maturity
Date), the Indenture Trustee shall, no later than seven Business
Days following the Legal Maturity Date, sell or cause to be sold Collateral (or interests
therein) in an amount not to exceed the sum of (i) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the close
of business on the day preceding such sale and (ii) the product of (A) the Nominal Liquidation
Amount as of the close of business on the day preceding such sale and (B) the Discount Option
Percentage.



35









 





          (d) Upon the occurrence of such sale, the Nominal Liquidation Amount shall be automatically
reduced to zero and Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections shall no longer be
allocated to the Series 2007-1 Notes. Series 2007-1 Noteholders shall receive the proceeds of such
sale in an amount not to exceed the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of, plus any Series 2007-1
Monthly Interest due on, such Series 2007-1 Notes.



          (e) Sale proceeds received with respect to the Series 2007-1 Notes pursuant to clause (a) or
(c) above will be allocated in the following priority:




     first, to the Class A Noteholders, until the Class A Stated Principal Amount and all
current and past due Class A Monthly Interest and Class A Additional Interest has been paid
in full;




     second, to the Class B Noteholders, until the Class B Stated Principal Amount and all
current and past due Class B Monthly Interest and Class B Additional Interest has been paid
in full; and




     third, to the Class C Noteholders, until the Class C Stated Principal Amount and all
current and past due Class C Monthly Interest and Class C Additional Interest has been paid
in full.

AMERICAN EXPRESS ISSUANCE TRUST




CLASS A SERIES 2007-1 FLOATING RATE ASSET BACKED NOTE




Summary of Terms and Conditions




          This Class A Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its
American Express Issuance Trust, Series 2007-1 (the “Series 2007-1 Notes”), issued under an
Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2007 (as amended and restated, the
“Indenture”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, as indenture trustee (the
“Indenture Trustee,” which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the
Indenture), as supplemented by the Indenture Supplement, dated as of November 1, 2007 (the
“Indenture Supplement”), and representing the right to receive certain payments from the
Issuer. The term “Indenture,” unless the context otherwise requires, refers to the Indenture as
supplemented by the Indenture Supplement. The Notes are subject to all of the terms of the
Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or
amended, shall have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture, as so
supplemented or amended. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Indenture and
this Note, the Indenture shall control.




          The Class B Notes and the Class C Notes will also be issued under the Indenture.




          The Noteholder, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that it will look solely to the
property of the Trust allocated to the payment of this Note for payment hereunder and that the
Indenture Trustee is not liable to the Noteholders for any amount payable under the Note or the
Indenture or, except as expressly provided in the Indenture, subject to any liability under the
Indenture.




          This Note does not purport to summarize the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture
for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced
thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Indenture Trustee.




          The Expected Final Payment Date is the October 2010 Payment Date, but principal with respect
to the Class A Notes may be paid earlier or later under certain circumstances described in the
Indenture. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not
sufficient funds to deposit into the Principal Funding Account the Controlled Deposit Amount, then
to the extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Payment Dates with respect to the
Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of
the Notes will occur later than the Expected Final Payment Date. Payments of principal of the
Notes shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.




          Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Transferor may, from time to time,
direct the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series, Class or Tranche
of Notes or new Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche.




A-1-5









 








          On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class A Noteholder of record
on the related Record Date (except for the final distribution in respect of this Class A Note) such
Class A Noteholder’s pro rata share of the amounts held by the Paying Agent that are allocated and
available on such Payment Date to pay interest and principal on the Class A Notes pursuant to the
Indenture Supplement. Except as provided in the Indenture with respect to a final distribution,
distributions to Series 2007-1 Noteholders shall be made by (i) check mailed to each Series 2007-1
Noteholder (at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note Register), except that with
respect to any Series 2007-1 Notes registered in the name of the nominee of a clearing agency, such
distribution shall be made in immediately available funds and (ii) without presentation or
surrender of any Series 2007-1 Note or the making of any notation thereon. Final payment of this
Class A Note will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class A Note at the office
or agency specified in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the
Series 2007-1 Noteholders in accordance with the Indenture.




          On any day occurring on or after the date on which the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of
a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes is reduced to less than 10% of its highest Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount at any time, the Trust or the Transferor (but only if the Transferor is the
Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer) shall have the right, but not the obligation to, redeem
the Series, Class or Tranche of Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount of such Series, Class or Tranche, plus accrued, unpaid and additional interest or
principal accreted and unpaid on such Tranche to but excluding the date of redemption.




          This Class A Note does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferor,
American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., American Express Centurion Bank, American
Express Bank, FSB, or any Affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality.




          Each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time
institute against the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, or join in instituting against
the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law.




          Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture Supplement, the Class A Notes are issuable only
in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof. The transfer of this Class A
Note shall be registered in the Note Register upon surrender of this Class A Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar, duly executed
by the Class A Noteholder or such Class A Noteholder’s attorney, and duly authorized in writing
with such signature guaranteed, and thereupon one or more new Class A Notes in any authorized
denominations of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal
Maturity Date and of like terms will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.




A-1-6









 








          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Class A
Notes are exchangeable for new Class A Notes in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate
Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms upon
surrender of such Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of
Payment. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Issuer may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith.




          The Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor
or the Indenture Trustee shall treat the person in whose name this Class A Note is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee
nor any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.




          THIS CLASS A NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL
BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

AMERICAN EXPRESS ISSUANCE TRUST




CLASS C SERIES 2007-1 FLOATING RATE ASSET BACKED NOTE




Summary of Terms and Conditions





     This Class C Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its
American Express Issuance Trust, Series 2007-1 (the “Series 2007-1 Notes”), issued under an
Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2007 (as amended and restated, the
“Indenture”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, as indenture trustee (the
“Indenture Trustee,” which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the
Indenture), as supplemented by the Indenture Supplement dated as of November 1, 2007 (the
“Indenture Supplement”), and representing the right to receive certain payments from the
Issuer. The term “Indenture,” unless the context otherwise requires, refers to the Indenture as
supplemented by the Indenture Supplement. The Notes are subject to all of the terms of the
Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or
amended, shall have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture, as so
supplemented or amended. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Indenture and
this Note, the Indenture shall control.



     The Class A Notes and the Class B Notes will also be issued under the Indenture.



     The Noteholder, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that it will look solely to the
property of the Trust allocated to the payment of this Note for payment hereunder and that the
Indenture Trustee is not liable to the Noteholders for any amount payable under the Note or the
Indenture or, except as expressly provided in the Indenture, subject to any liability under the
Indenture.



     This Note does not purport to summarize the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture
for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced
thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Indenture Trustee.



     The Expected Final Payment Date is the October 2010 Payment Date, but principal with respect
to the Class C Notes may be paid earlier or later under certain circumstances described in the
Indenture. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not
sufficient funds to deposit into the Principal Funding Account the Controlled Deposit Amount, then
to the extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Payment Dates with respect to the
Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of
the Notes will occur later than the Expected Final Payment Date. Payments of principal of the
Notes shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.



A-3-5









 





     Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Transferor may, from time to time,
direct the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series, Class or Tranche
of Notes or new Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche.



     On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class C Noteholder of record
on the related Record Date (except for the final distribution in respect of this Class C Note) such
Class C Noteholder’s pro rata share of the amounts held by the Paying Agent that are allocated and
available on such Payment Date to pay interest and principal on the Class C Notes pursuant to the
Indenture Supplement. Except as provided in the Indenture with respect to a final distribution,
distributions to Series 2007-1 Noteholders shall be made by (i) check mailed to each Series 2007-1
Noteholder (at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note Register), except that with
respect to any Series 2007-1 Notes registered in the name of the nominee of a clearing agency, such
distribution shall be made in immediately available funds and (ii) without presentation or
surrender of any Series 2007-1 Note or the making of any notation thereon. Final payment of this
Class C Note will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class C Note at the office
or agency specified in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the
Series 2007-1 Noteholders in accordance with the Indenture.



     On any day occurring on or after the date on which the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of
a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes is reduced to less than 10% of its highest Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount at any time, the Trust or the Transferor (but only if the Transferor is the
Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer) shall have the right, but not the obligation to, redeem
the Series, Class or Tranche of Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount of such Series, Class or Tranche, plus accrued, unpaid and additional interest or
principal accreted and unpaid on such Tranche to but excluding the date of redemption.



     This Class C Note does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferor,
American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., American Express Centurion Bank, American
Express Bank, FSB, or any Affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality.



     Each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time
institute against the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, or join in instituting against
the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law.



     Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture Supplement, the Class C Notes are issuable only
in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof. The transfer of this Class C
Note shall be registered in the Note Register upon surrender of this Class C Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar, duly executed

writing with such signature guaranteed, and thereupon one or more new Class C Notes in any
authorized denominations of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and

Notes are exchangeable for new Class C Notes in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate
Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms upon
surrender of such Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of
