for herein or in the related Indenture Supplement executed by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Note or O/C Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Note or O/C Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 2.04. Authenticating
Agent. 
 (a) The Indenture Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents with respect to the Notes and O/C Certificates which
shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Indenture Trustee in authenticating the Notes and O/C Certificates in connection with the issuance, delivery, registration of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Notes or O/C Certificates. Whenever
reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication of Notes or O/C Certificates by the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall include authentication on behalf of the Indenture
Trustee by an authenticating agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by an authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the Issuer and the Servicer. 
 (b) Any institution succeeding to the corporate agency business of an authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the
execution or filing of any power or any further act on the part of the Indenture Trustee or such authenticating agent. 
 (c) An
authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving notice of termination to such


  

 18 








 
authenticating agent and to the Issuer and the Servicer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an
authenticating agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee may promptly appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless acceptable to the Issuer and the
Servicer. 
 (d) The Issuer agrees to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this
Section 2.04. 
 (e) The provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.04 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent.

 (f) Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section 2.04, the Notes and O/C Certificates may have endorsed thereon, in lieu
of or in addition to the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 
 (i) In the case of the Notes: 
 “This is one of the Notes described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

  

					
	  
	 	
		
	  
	 	
			
		 	 as Authenticating Agent
	 	
		 	 for the Indenture Trustee
	 	
			
	 By:
	 	  
	 	
		 	 Authorized Signatory”
	 	


 (ii) In the case of the O/C Certificates: 
 “This is one of the O/C Certificates described in the within-mentioned Indenture. 
  

					
	  
	 	
		
	  
	 	
			
		 	 as Authenticating Agent
	 	
		 	 for the Indenture Trustee
	 	
			
	 By:
	 	  
	 	
		 	 Authorized Signatory”

 Section 2.05. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes and O/C Certificates.

 (a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept with the Indenture Trustee, a register (the “Note Register”) in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the registration of Notes and O/C Certificates and the registration of transfers of Notes and O/C Certificates shall be provided. A note registrar (which may be the Indenture Trustee) (in such
capacity, the “Note Registrar”) shall provide for the registration of Registered Notes and Registered Certificates, and transfers and exchanges of Registered Notes and Registered Certificates as herein provided. The Note Registrar
shall initially be the Indenture Trustee and any co-note registrar chosen by the Issuer and acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. Any reference in this Indenture to the Note Registrar shall include any co-note registrar unless the context requires
otherwise. 
 The Indenture Trustee may revoke such appointment and remove any Note Registrar if the Indenture Trustee determines in its sole
discretion that such Note Registrar failed to perform its obligations under this Indenture in any material respect. Any Note Registrar shall be permitted to resign as Note Registrar upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that such resignation shall not be effective and such Note Registrar shall continue to perform its duties as Note Registrar until the Indenture Trustee has appointed a successor Note Registrar
(which may be the Indenture Trustee) reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of any
Registered Note or Registered Certificate at any office or agency of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose, one or more new Registered Notes or Registered Certificates, as applicable, (of the same Series and Class) in authorized
denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount shall be executed, authenticated and delivered, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees. 
 At the option of a Registered Noteholder or O/C Holder, subject to the provisions of this Section 2.05, Registered Notes or Registered Certificates may be exchanged for other Registered Notes or Registered
Certificates (of the same Series and Class), as applicable, of authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Registered Notes or Registered Certificates, as applicable, to be exchanged at any such
office or agency. 
 All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes or O/C Certificates shall be the valid
obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes or O/C Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 The preceding provisions of this Section 2.05(a) notwithstanding, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar, as the case may be, shall not
be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note or O/C Certificate for a period of fifteen (15) days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Note or O/C Certificate. 
 Whenever any Notes or O/C Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
the Notes or O/C 

  

 20 








 
Certificates which the Noteholder or O/C Holder, as applicable, making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note or O/C Certificate presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar duly executed by the Noteholder or O/C Holder, as the case may be, or
the attorney-in-fact thereof duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes or O/C Certificates, but the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such transfer or exchange. 
 All Notes or O/C Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange or for payment shall be canceled and disposed of in a manner
satisfactory to the Issuer as confirmed in writing by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall cancel and destroy any Global Note upon its exchange in full for definitive Notes and shall deliver a certificate of destruction
to the Issuer. Such certificate shall also state that a certificate or certificates of a Foreign Clearing Agency referred to in the applicable Indenture Supplement was received with respect to each portion of the Global Note exchanged for definitive
Notes. 
 The Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee, Registered Notes and Registered Certificates in such amounts and at
such times as are necessary to enable the Indenture Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under this Indenture, the Notes and the O/C Certificates. 
 (b) The Note Registrar will maintain at its expense in New York, New York, or Nashville, Tennessee, an office or agency where Notes or O/C Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.

 Section 2.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes and O/C Certificates. 
 If (a) any mutilated Note or O/C Certificate is surrendered to the Note Registrar, or the Note Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Note or O/C Certificate, and (b) in case of destruction, loss or theft there is delivered to the Note Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer, the Transferor, the Note
Registrar and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Transferor, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note or O/C Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Issuer shall
execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Note Registrar shall deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note or O/C Certificate, a replacement Note or O/C Certificate, respectively, of
like tenor and aggregate principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided, however, that if any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note or O/C Certificate shall have become or within seven
(7) days shall be due and payable, or shall have been selected or called for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note or O/C Certificate, the Issuer may pay such Note or O/C Certificate without surrender thereof, except that any
mutilated Note or O/C Certificate shall be surrendered. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or O/C Certificate or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note or O/C Certificate pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a
protected purchaser of the original Note or O/C Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Note or O/C 

  

 21 








 
Certificate was issued presents for payment such original Note or O/C Certificate, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Note or O/C Certificate (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note or O/C Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement Note or O/C Certificate was delivered or any
assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture
Trustee in connection therewith. 
 In connection with the issuance of any replacement Note or O/C Certificate under this
Section 2.06, the Issuer or the Note Registrar may require the payment by the Holder of such Note or the O/C Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar) connected therewith. 
 Any
replacement Note or O/C Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note or O/C Certificate shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of a debt of the Issuer, as if originally
issued, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note or O/C Certificate shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes or O/C Certificates,
respectively, duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 2.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes or O/C Certificates. 
 Section 2.07. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 The Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Transferor, the
Issuer and any agent of any of them may prior to due presentation of a Registered Note or Registered Certificate for registration of transfer, treat the Person in whose name any Registered Note or Registered Certificate is registered as the owner of
such Registered Note or Registered Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the terms of the applicable Indenture Supplement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and, in any such case, neither the Indenture Trustee, the
Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Transferor, the Issuer nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 
 Section 2.08. Appointment of Paying Agent. 
 The Issuer hereby agrees that the Indenture Trustee may appoint Deutsche
Bank AG, London Branch as the Paying Agent, and the Indenture Trustee hereby appoints Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch as the Paying Agent and hereby delegates all of the rights and responsibilities as Paying Agent under this Agreement to Deutsche
Bank AG, London Branch. 
 The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Noteholders from the Collection Account or applicable Series Account
pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Indenture Supplement. The Indenture Trustee shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account or applicable Series Account for the purpose of providing such funds to the Paying
Agent or making the distributions referred to above. The Issuer may remove the Paying 

  

 22 








 
Agent if the Issuer determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Indenture in any material
respect. The Issuer reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of a Paying Agent for the Notes, and to appoint additional or other Paying Agents, provided that it will at all times maintain the Indenture Trustee as a
Paying Agent. In the event that any Paying Agent shall resign, the Issuer shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent. The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee an instrument as
described in Section 3.03. Any reference in this Indenture to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise. 
 Section 2.09. Cancellation. 
 All Notes and O/C Certificates surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Indenture
Trustee for cancellation any Notes and O/C Certificates previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any lawful manner whatsoever, and all Notes and O/C Certificates so delivered shall be promptly cancelled
by the Indenture Trustee. No Notes or O/C Certificates shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes or O/C Certificates cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes and
O/C Certificates held by the Indenture Trustee shall be destroyed unless the Issuer shall direct prior to destruction that they be returned to the Issuer. 
 Section 2.10. New Issuances. 
 (a) Pursuant to one or more Indenture Supplements, the Issuer may
from time to time direct the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, to issue one or more new Series of Notes or an O/C Certificate (a “New Issuance”). Outstanding Classes of Notes shall be equally and ratably entitled as
provided herein to the benefits of this Indenture without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time of the authentication and delivery or Expected Principal Payment Date or Stated Maturity Date, all in accordance with the
terms and provisions of this Indenture and the applicable Indenture Supplement except, with respect to any Series or Class, as provided in the related Indenture Supplement. The total principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered
and Outstanding under this Indenture is not limited. 
 (b) On or before the Series Issuance Date relating to any new Series, the parties
hereto will execute and deliver an Indenture Supplement which will specify the Principal Terms of such new Series. The terms of such Indenture Supplement may modify or amend the terms of this Indenture solely as applied to such new Series. The
Indenture Trustee shall execute the Indenture Supplement and the Issuer shall execute the Notes and O/C Certificate of such Series and deliver the Notes and O/C Certificate to the Indenture Trustee for authentication and delivery. The issuance of
any such Notes or O/C Certificate of any new Series (other than any Series issued pursuant to an Indenture Supplement dated as of the date hereof) shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately preceding the Series Issuance Date, the Issuer shall have given notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and each Rating
Agency, if any, that has rated any Series or Class (unless such notice requirement is otherwise waived) of such issuance and the Series Issuance Date; 
  

 23 








 (ii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee the related Indenture
Supplement, in a form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, executed by each party hereto (other than the Indenture Trustee) and specifying the relevant Principal Terms; 
 (iii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee any related Series Enhancement executed by each of the parties thereto,
other than the Indenture Trustee; 
 (iv) the Rating Agency Condition, if applicable, shall have been satisfied with respect
to such issuance; 
 (v) such issuance will not result in the occurrence of a Default, an Adverse Effect or an Early
Redemption Event or Reinvestment Event for any Series, and the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer, dated the Series Issuance Date for such Series, to the effect that (1) the Issuer
reasonably believes that such issuance will not, based on the facts known to the Person executing such Officer’s Certificate, have an Adverse Effect or result in the occurrence of a Default or Early Redemption Event or Reinvestment Event for
any Series then Outstanding and (2) all conditions precedent to such execution, authentication and delivery have been satisfied; and 
 (vi) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee (with a copy to each Rating Agency, as applicable), a Tax Opinion dated the Series Issuance Date addressing the New Issuance.

 Section 2.11. Book-Entry Notes. 
 Unless otherwise specified in any related Indenture Supplement for any Series or Class, the Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be
delivered to the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency on behalf of the Issuer. The Notes shall initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency or its nominee, and no owner of a
security entitlement to Notes will receive a definitive note representing such owner’s security entitlement to the Notes, except as provided in Section 2.13. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (“Definitive
Notes”) have been issued to the applicable owners of security entitlements to the Notes pursuant to Section 2.13 or as otherwise specified in any such Indenture Supplement: 
 (a) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall be in full force and effect with respect to each such Series; 
  

 24 








 (b) the Issuer, the Transferor and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all purposes of this Indenture (including distributions) as the authorized representatives of the owners of the security entitlements to the Notes; 
 (c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.11 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this
Section 2.11 shall control with respect to each such Series; and 
 (d) the rights of the respective owners of security
entitlements to each such Series shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and the applicable Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such owners and
the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement applicable to a Series, unless and until Definitive Notes of such Series are issued pursuant to Section 2.13,
the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants. 
 For purposes of any provision of this Indenture requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Noteholders evidencing a
specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Notes, such direction or consent may be given by owners (acting through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants) owning security entitlements to Notes evidencing the
requisite percentage of principal amount of Notes. 
 Section 2.12. Notices to Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency.

 Whenever a notice or other communication is required to be given to the Noteholders of any Series or Class with respect to which Book-Entry

Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, as applicable. 
 Section 2.13. Definitive Notes. 
 If Book-Entry Notes have been issued with respect to any Series or Class and (i) (a) the Issuer advises the Indenture Trustee that the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities with respect to such Series or Class and (b) the Issuer is unable to locate and reach an agreement on satisfactory terms with a qualified
successor, (ii) to the extent permitted by law, the Issuer, at its option, advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency with respect to such
Series or Class or (iii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Default or an Event of Default, owners of security entitlements to such Series or Class representing not less than 50% of the principal amount of the Book-Entry Notes of such Series or
Class advise the Indenture Trustee and the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency in writing through the applicable Clearing Agency Participants that the continuation of a book-entry system with respect to the Notes of such Series or
Class is no longer in the best interests of the owners of security entitlements to such Series or Class, then the 

  

 25 








 
Indenture Trustee shall notify all owners of security entitlements to such Series or Class, through the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, as
applicable, of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to owners of security entitlements to such Series or Class. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of such Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by
registration instructions from the applicable Clearing Agency for registration, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes of such Class and shall recognize the registered holders of such Definitive Notes
as Noteholders under this Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions, and the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying
on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes of such Series, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the registered Holders of such Definitive Notes of such Series or Class as Noteholders of such Series or
Class hereunder. Definitive Notes will be transferable and exchangeable at the offices of the Note Registrar. 
 Section 2.14. Global
Note. 
 If specified in the related Indenture Supplement for any Series or Class, the Notes for such Series or Class will initially be
issued in the form of a single temporary global Note (the “Global Note”), in the denomination of the entire aggregate principal amount of such Series or Class and substantially in the form set forth in the exhibit with respect
thereto attached to the related Indenture Supplement. The Global Note will be executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Issuer upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and
with the same effect as the Definitive Notes. The Global Note may be exchanged for Registered Notes in definitive form, as provided in the related Indenture Supplement. 
 Section 2.15. Release of Collateral. 
 Subject to Section 11.01, the Indenture
Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Order accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel. 
 ARTICLE III 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF ISSUER 
 Section 3.01. Payment of Principal and Interest. 
 (a) The Issuer will duly and punctually pay principal (and premium, if any) and, if such Note or O/C Certificate is an Interest-bearing Note or O/C Certificate, interest, in each case in accordance with the terms of
the Notes and the O/C Certificate, if any, as specified in the relevant Indenture Supplement. 
 (b) The Noteholders and the O/C Holder of a
Series as of the Record Date in respect of a Payment Date shall be entitled to the interest (if any) accrued and payable and principal (and premium, if any) payable on such Payment Date as specified in the related 

  

 26 








 
Indenture Supplement. All payment obligations under a Note or an O/C Certificate are discharged to the extent such payments are made to the Noteholder and
the O/C Holder of record. 
 Section 3.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Issuer will maintain an office or agency within Nashville, Tennessee or New York, New York where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment,
where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Indenture Trustee located
at its Corporate Trust Office to serve as its agent for the foregoing purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Noteholders of any change in the location of any such office or agency. If at
any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at its office located at 648
Grassmere Park Road, Nashville, Tennessee 37211, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands at its office located at 648 Grassmere Park Road, Nashville,
Tennessee 37211. Additionally, the Issuer requests that a copy of all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands be sent to 3993 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 250, Room 215, Las Vegas, Nevada 89109. 
 Section 3.03. Money for Note Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
 As specified in Section 8.02 and in the related Indenture Supplement, all payments of amounts due and payable on the Notes or O/C Certificate, if any, which are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the
Collection Account or any Series Account shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Collection Account or any Series Account shall be paid over to or at the direction
of the Issuer except as provided in this Indenture or in the related Indenture Supplement. 
 Whenever the Issuer shall have a Paying Agent
in addition to the Indenture Trustee, it will, on or before the Business Day next preceding each Payment Date, direct in writing the Indenture Trustee to deposit with such Paying Agent no later than 4 p.m. (London time) one Business Day prior to
such Payment Date an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due, such sum to be (i) held in trust for the benefit of Persons entitled thereto and (ii) invested, pursuant to an Issuer Order or at the written direction of
the Servicer, as applicable, by the Paying Agent in a specific Eligible Investment in accordance with the terms of the related Indenture Supplement. For all investments made by a Paying Agent under this Section 3.03, such Paying Agent
shall be entitled to all of the rights, obligations, protections and indemnities of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement, such rights and obligations being incorporated in this paragraph by this reference.

 The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Issuer (and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 3.03, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes and O/C Certificates in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided; 
  


 27 








 (ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor
upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes; 
 (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; 
 (iv) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes
or the O/C Certificates if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and 
 (v) comply with all applicable tax laws with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting
requirements in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums
were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. Furthermore, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Paying
Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any loss resulting from its being unable to perform any functions or obligations hereunder if the same results from any law, regulation or requirement (whether or not having the forces of law) of
any central bank or governmental or other regulatory authority affecting it. 
 Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds,
and after such notice required with respect to Notes not surrendered for cancellation pursuant to Section 10.02(b) is given, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with
respect to any Note remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust, and the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall give prompt notice of such occurrence
to the Issuer and shall release such money to the Issuer on Issuer Order; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer (and then only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer) for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make
any such repayment, shall at the direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified 

  

 28 








 
therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be
repaid to the Issuer. The cost of any such notice or publication shall be paid out of funds in the Collection Account or any Series Account held for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense of
the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or
interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder). 
 Section 3.04. Existence. 
 The
Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State of Nevada (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the
United States of America, in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which
such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the O/C Certificates and the Trust Estate. 
 Section 3.05. Protection of Trust. 
 The Issuer will from time to time take all actions
necessary, including without limitation preparing, or causing to be prepared, authorizing, executing and delivering all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such financing statements, amendments to financing statements, continuation
statements, if any, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will take such other action necessary or advisable to: 
 (a)
Grant more effectively all or any portion of the Trust Estate as security for the Notes and the O/C Certificates;

each beneficial owner of a Note, by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Note), agree to treat such Notes for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of such O/C Holder. Each Holder of such Note agrees
that it will cause any owner of a security entitlement to such Note acquiring an interest in a Note through it to comply with this Agreement as to treatment of indebtedness under applicable tax law, as described in this Section 3.14. The
parties hereto agree that they shall not cause or permit the making, as applicable, of any election under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 whereby the Issuer or any portion thereof would be treated as a corporation for federal income tax

Notes, together with the accrued or accreted and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall automatically become, and shall be considered to be declared, due and payable. 
 (c) At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of such Series, by written notice to the Issuer and the

the Indenture Trustee and its agents and outside counsel; and 
  

 37 








 (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes of
that Series that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 
 No such
rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent to it. 
 Section 5.04. Collection of Indebtedness and
Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee. 
 (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of any interest on
any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of thirty-five (35) days following the date on which it became due and payable or (ii) default is made in the payment of principal of any Note, if and
to the extent not previously paid when the same becomes due and payable, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, immediately pay to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders the whole amount then due and payable on such
Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payments of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest at the applicable Interest Rate and, in addition
thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, its agents and outside counsel. 
 (b) If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may
institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect in the manner provided
by law out of the Trust Estate or the property of another obligor on the Notes, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law.

Section 5.03, Section 5.05, Section 5.12 and Section 6.01, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and the O/C Holder of the affected Series (or all Series, as
applicable) under this Indenture by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture
or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

ownership interest in the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, now or hereafter in effect or in case a receiver, conservator,
assignee, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidator, sequestrator, custodian or other similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable
judicial Proceedings relative to 

  

 38 








 
the Issuer or the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor or Person, the Indenture Trustee, regardless whether the principal of any Notes
or O/C Certificates shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and regardless whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.04, shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: 
 (i) to file one or more claims for the whole
amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes or O/C Certificate of such Series, and to file such other papers or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred,
and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders, and the O/C Holder of such Series, allowed; 
 (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders of such Series, in any election of a trustee or a standby
trustee in bankruptcy or a Person performing similar functions; and 
 (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders or O/C Holder of such Series and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf;

compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor
Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith. 
 (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture
Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder or O/C Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or O/C Certificates or the rights of any Noteholder or
O/C Holder, or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder or O/C Holder in any such proceeding except, as provided in (d)(ii) above, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

 (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes or O/C Certificates, may be enforced by
the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or O/C Certificates or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the 

  

 39 








 
Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and O/C
Holder of the affected Series as provided herein.

Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders and O/C Holder of the affected Series, and it shall
not be necessary to make any such Noteholder or O/C Holder party to any such Proceedings. 
 Section 5.05. Remedies; Priorities.

 (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing for any Series, and the Notes of such Series have been accelerated under
Section 5.03, the Indenture Trustee shall (subject to Sections 5.06 and 11.15), do one or more of the following: 
  

	 	(i)	institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes and O/C Certificate of the affected Series or
under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer the portion of the Trust Estate allocated to such Series and from any other obligor upon such Notes monies
adjudged due; 

  

	 	(ii)	sell all or a portion of the Issuer’s interest in the Principal Receivables, in an amount not to exceed the Allocation Amount for the accelerated Series, and the related
Finance Charge Receivables, as shall constitute a part of the Trust Estate (or rights or interest therein), at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; and 

  

	 	(iii)	take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders or O/C Holder of the accelerated Series hereunder;


 provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not exercise the remedy in subparagraph (ii) above unless (A) the
Holders of 100% of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of the accelerated Series consent thereto, (B) the Indenture Trustee determines that (the Indenture Trustee may rely upon the opinion of an Independent investment banking firm)
the proceeds of such sale distributable to the Noteholders of the affected Series are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that (the
Indenture Trustee may rely upon the opinion of an Independent investment banking firm) the Trust Estate may not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes
had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3% of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of each Class of such affected Series. In determining such sufficiency or
insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed

order (unless otherwise provided in the related Indenture Supplement): 
 FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Note
Registrar for amounts due pursuant to Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: to Holders of Notes of such Series for amounts due and unpaid on
such Notes for interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind except for preferences or priorities specified in and in accordance with the related

 FOURTH: to Holders of Notes of such Series for amounts, if any, that remain owing to such Holders of Notes of such Series after the
applications of amounts described in SECOND and THIRD above, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind except for preferences or priorities specified in and in

 41 








 (c) After the application of money or property referred to in Section 5.05(b) for an
accelerated Series, amounts then held in the Collection Account or Series Accounts for such Series and any amounts available under the Series Enhancement for such Series shall be used to make payments to the Holders of the Notes of such Series and
the Series Enhancer for such Series in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the related Indenture Supplement and the Series Enhancement for such Series. Following the sale of the Trust Estate (or portion thereof) for a Series and the
application of the proceeds of such sale to such Series and the application of the amounts then held in the Collection Account and any Series Accounts for such Series as are allocated to such Series and any amounts available under the Series
Enhancement for such Series, such Series shall no longer be entitled to any allocation of Collections or other property constituting the Trust Estate under this Indenture and the Notes of such Series shall no longer be Outstanding. 
 (d) The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section. At least fifteen (15) days
before such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid. 
 Section 5.06. Optional Preservation of the Trust Estate. 
 If the Notes of any Series have been
declared to be due and payable under Section 5.03 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, and the Indenture Trustee has not received directions from the Noteholders
under Section 5.12, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the portion of the Trust Estate allocated to such Notes and the related O/C Certificate. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the
Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust
Estate allocated to such Notes and the related O/C Certificate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or
accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. 
 Section 5.07. Limitation on Suits. 
 No Noteholder shall have any right to institute any
Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of all Series (or, with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding that does not relate to all Series, Holders of not less than
25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of all Series to which such action or proceeding relates) have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own name as Indenture Trustee; 
 (b) such Noteholder or Noteholders has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default; 
  

 42 








 (c) such Noteholder or Noteholders has offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after
its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such sixty-day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of such Series (or all Series, as applicable); 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders of the affected Series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of,
any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Noteholders except as may otherwise be specified in any applicable Indenture Supplement. 
 In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two (2) or more groups of Noteholders of the affected Series or of all Series, as the case maybe, each
representing less than a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of Notes under such Series, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

 Section 5.08. Unconditional Rights of Noteholders or the O/C Holders to Receive Principal and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, each Noteholder or O/C Holder shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional to receive
payment of the principal (and premium, if any) of and interest in respect of such Note or O/C Certificate as such principal and interest becomes due and payable and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not
be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder or O/C Holder. 
 Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

 If the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder or O/C Holder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture
and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned, or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee, such Noteholder or O/C Holder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholder or O/C Holder shall,
subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the O/C Holders shall continue as
though no such Proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as provided in Section 5.05, no right, remedy, power or privilege herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee, the
Noteholders or the O/C Holders is 

  

 43 








 
intended to be exclusive of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, and every right, remedy, power or privilege shall, to the extent permitted by law,
be cumulative. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude any other further assertion or the exercise of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising,
on the part of the Indenture Trustee or of any Noteholder or other Person, any right or remedy occurring hereunder upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be. 
 Section 5.12. Control by Noteholders. 
 The Holders of a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of any Series, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for such Series, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes of such Series or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes of such Series; provided, however,
that, subject to Section 6.01 and Section 6.03(d): 
 (a) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to decline any
such direction if the Indenture Trustee, after being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed is in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; and 
 (b) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to decline any such direction if the Indenture Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer of
the Indenture Trustee, determine that the Proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve the Indenture Trustee in liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Noteholders not parties to such direction. 
 Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes of a Series as provided in Section 5.03, the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of such Series may, on behalf of all
such Noteholders, waive in writing any past default with respect to the Notes of such Series and its consequences (including an Event of Default), except a default: 
 (a) in the payment of the principal (or premium, if any) or interest in respect of any Note of such Series, or 
 (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section 9.02 hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Noteholder of each Outstanding Note of such Series affected. 
 Upon any such written waiver, such default, and any Event of Default arising therefrom, shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured for
every purpose of this Indenture; provided, that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

 44 








 Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder by its acceptance thereof, each O/C Holder by its acceptance of an O/C Certificate shall be
deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture
Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders (in compliance with Section 5.07), in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the principal balance of the Outstanding Notes of a Series, or
(c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder or O/C Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or O/C Certificate on or after the date on which any of such amounts was due pursuant to the terms of such
Note or O/C Certificate or the applicable Indenture Supplement (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date). 
 Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may adversely affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 5.16. Action on Notes. 
 The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under
the Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with respect to the Indenture. Neither the lien of the Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders
shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Subject to
Section 5.05, any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied as specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement. 
 Section 5.17. Sale of Receivables. 
 (a) If the Receivables are to be sold under the terms of
Section 5.05(a)(ii), the Indenture Trustee, or its agents, shall, unless another method of sale is directed in writing by the holders of a majority of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of all Series, use its best 

  

 45 








 
efforts to sell, dispose or otherwise liquidate the Receivables by the solicitation of competitive bids and on terms equivalent to the best purchase offer as
determined by the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as
compensation for any sale. 
 (b) The Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer in
connection with any sale of Receivables pursuant to Section 5.05(a)(ii). No purchaser or transferee at any such sale shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions
precedent or see to the application of any monies. 
 (c) In its exercise of the foreclosure remedy pursuant to
Section 5.05(a)(ii), the Indenture Trustee shall solicit bids from Permitted Assignees, based upon the written direction of the Servicer, for the sale of Principal Receivables in an amount equal to the Allocation Amount of the
accelerated Series of Notes at the time of sale and the related Finance Charge Receivables, as shall constitute a part of the Trust Estate. The Indenture Trustee shall sell such Receivables (or interests therein) to the bidder with the highest cash
purchase offer. The proceeds of any such sale shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.05(b). In connection with any such sale of Receivables or interests therein, the Indenture Trustee may contract with agents to assist in such
sales.

Outstanding of such Series, exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
person’s own affairs.

such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied duties or covenants by the Indenture Trustee shall be read into this Indenture; and (ii) in the absence of bad faith or negligence on its part the
Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture;
provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee which are specifically required to
be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they substantially conform to the requirements of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement. The Indenture Trustee shall 

  

 46 








 
give prompt written notice to the Servicer, the Issuer and each Rating Agency of any material lack of conformity of any such instrument to the applicable
requirements of this Indenture discovered by the Indenture Trustee which would entitle the Holders of a specified percentage of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes of a Series or Class to take any action pursuant to this Indenture or any
Indenture Supplement. 
 (c) In case an Early Redemption Event or Reinvestment Event with respect to a Series of Notes has occurred and is
continuing and a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge or written notice of such Early Redemption Event or Reinvestment Event, the Indenture Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of not less than 50%
of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes Outstanding of such Series, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that: 
 (i) this paragraph (d) shall not be construed to limit the effect of paragraphs (a) or (b) of this
Section 6.01;

action relates) relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or for exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, under this Indenture; 
 (iv) subject to the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 6.01, the Indenture Trustee shall not be
required to take notice of or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Event of Default, Early Redemption Event, Reinvestment Event or any other default unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or shall have
received written notice thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that none of such events have occurred; and

 (e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of
any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall
in any event require the Indenture Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any obligations of the Servicer under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement except during such time, if any, as the Indenture Trustee shall be
the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of Article VIII of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and under the Transaction Documents. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Servicer promptly of any claim for which it may
seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Servicer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder unless such loss, liability or expense could have been avoided with such prompt notification and then
only to the extent of such loss, expense or liability which could have been so avoided. The Issuer shall defend any claim against the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and, if it

Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 (b) The Issuer’s payment obligations to the Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture; provisions of this Section regarding the reimbursement and indemnification of the Indenture Trustee shall survive the resignation and removal of the Indenture Trustee
and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.02(d) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

action.

appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08. The Indenture Trustee or any of its agents may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Issuer. The Holders of a majority
of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee and any or all of its agents by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee by
giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee if:

Trustee; or the Indenture Trustee shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or 
 (iii) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of
acting. 
 If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in
such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee, which successor shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer. 
 (b) Any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of successor indenture trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section
shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor indenture trustee as provided in this Section 6.08(b). 
 (i) Any successor indenture trustee appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer, to the Servicer and to its predecessor indenture trustee an instrument accepting such appointment
hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor indenture trustee shall become effective and such successor indenture trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Indenture Trustee herein. The predecessor indenture trustee shall deliver to the successor indenture trustee all documents or copies thereof and
statements and all money and other property held by it hereunder; and the Issuer and the predecessor indenture trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting
and confirming in the successor indenture trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. 
 (ii) No successor
indenture trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor indenture trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 6.11.

Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer. 
  

 53 








 (c) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within thirty (30) days after the retiring
Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Indenture Trustee. 
 (d) If the Indenture Trustee ceases to be eligible in accordance with Section 6.11, any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Servicer’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.
No Indenture Trustee under this Indenture shall be liable for any action or omission of any successor indenture trustee.

successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. 
 In case at the time such successor by merger, conversion, consolidation or transfer to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes or O/C Certificates shall have been
authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor indenture trustee and deliver such Notes or O/C Certificates so authenticated; and in case at that time any
of the Notes or O/C Certificates shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes or O/C Certificates in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force which it is anywhere provided in the Notes or O/C Certificates or in this Indenture that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have. 
 Section 6.10. Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee. 
 (a)

and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such
capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders and the O/C Holders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture
Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders or the O/C Holders of the
appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 6.08 hereof.

subject to the following provisions and conditions: 
 (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act
separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform
such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or
co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee; 
 (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by
reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and 
 (iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the

 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall
be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this
Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately,
as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor
trustee.

jurisdiction, in the winding up or dissolution of the obligor or otherwise), then such amount will only be paid to the extent of the Contractual Currency amount purchasable with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date

Supplement, the Indenture Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or other intermediary, all money and other property payable to or receivable by

Early Redemption Event, Reinvestment Event or an Event of Default under this Indenture and to proceed thereafter as provided in Article V hereof. 
  

 58 








 Section 8.02. Collection Account. 
 (a) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Issuer with the Indenture Trustee an Eligible
Deposit Account bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Noteholders (the “Collection Account”). The Indenture Trustee hereby delegates all of its
rights and responsibilities under this Section 8.02 to Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as agent of the Indenture Trustee, and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch accepts such rights and responsibilities and shall, on behalf of the Indenture
Trustee, possess all right, title and interest in all money, instruments, investment property and other property from time to time credited to or on deposit in the Collection Account and in all proceeds, earnings, income, revenue, dividends and
distributions thereof. This delegation shall not relieve the Indenture Trustee of its liability and responsibilities with respect to such duties. 
 (b) The Collection Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. Except as expressly provided in this Indenture and the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer
agrees that it shall have no right of setoff or banker’s lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any funds and other property held in the Collection Account for any amount owed to it by the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Issuer, any Noteholder, any O/C Holder or any Series Enhancer. If, at any time, the Collection 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 each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Collection Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any money, instruments, investment property and other
property to such new Collection Account and from the date such new Collection Account is established, it shall be the “Collection Account.” Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the
Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account and to instruct the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agents to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account
for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer’s or the Indenture Trustee’s duties hereunder and under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. The Servicer agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee or, where applicable, the Paying Agent, with
the relevant and necessary information that it may require in sufficient time to allow the Indenture Trustee or, where applicable, the Paying Agent to perform its duties and the Indenture Trustee or, where applicable, the Paying Agent, is hereby
authorized to rely and act upon such instructions or information as it shall receive. The Servicer shall reduce deposits into the Collection Account payable by the Issuer on any date on which Collections are deposited into the Collection Account to
the extent the Issuer is entitled to receive funds from the Collection Account on such Deposit Date and shall pay such funds to the Issuer, free and clear of the lien of this Indenture. 
 (c) Funds on deposit in the Collection Account (other than investment earnings and amounts deposited pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreement or Section 10.02 of this Indenture) shall at the written direction of the Servicer be invested by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer. The Indenture Trustee or, where applicable,
the Paying Agent, shall be entitled to assume that all conditions to the making of any payment out of amounts standing to the credit of any of the Collection Account or any Series Account which is specified in either of the Master Indenture or the
related 

  

 59 








 
Indenture Supplement are satisfied unless it has actual notice to the contrary. In the absence of written directions from the Servicer, all funds shall
remain uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by Deutsche Bank AG London Branch, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. Investments of funds representing Collections collected during any Monthly
Period shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available no later than the close of business on each Transfer Date following such Monthly Period in amounts sufficient to the extent of such funds to make
the required distributions on the following Distribution Date. 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. Unless directed by the Servicer, funds deposited in the Collection Account on a Transfer Date with respect to
the immediately succeeding Distribution Date are not required to be invested overnight. On each Distribution Date, all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall
be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables with respect to the last day of the related Monthly Period except as otherwise specified in any Indenture Supplement. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch shall
bear any responsibility or liability for any losses resulting from investment or reinvestment of any funds in accordance with this Section nor for the selection of Eligible Investments in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture (other than
Eligible Investments on which the institution acting as Indenture Trustee or Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch is an obligor). In addition, neither the Indenture Trustee nor Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch shall have any liability in respect of the
losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any Eligible Investment prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment direction. 
 (d) The Servicer shall notify the Paying Agent of any payment to be credited to any Series Account or the Collection Account as soon as practicable, and
in any event not later than 3:00 p.m. (London time) one Business Day before payment into any Series Account or the Collection Account. The Paying Agent shall be obligated to make payments from the Collection Account or any Series Account only to the
extent such amounts are deposited therein. 
 Section 8.03. Instruction Procedures 
 All amounts shall be received by the Paying Agent not later than 9 a.m. (London time) on the applicable Distribution Date. The Servicer shall deliver
payment instructions, as set forth below, not later than 9 a.m. (London time) on such Distribution Date. The Servicer may only give, and the Indenture Trustee or, where applicable, the Paying Agent shall only be entitled to comply with, any
instruction for a withdrawal from the Collection Account or any Series Account if those instructions: 
 (a) are in writing, duly completed in
the form of Schedule A hereto, or in such other form as the Indenture Trustee or, where applicable, the Paying Agent may from time to time approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and are signed by an
authorized signatory of the Servicer; and 
  

 60 








 (b) specify the person or the entity (as applicable) to whom the payment is to be made. 
 Each instruction provided to the Paying Agent by the Servicer shall be copied by the Servicer at the same time to the Indenture Trustee, but no failure
of the Servicer to provide such copy shall affect the authority of the Paying Agent to act on such instruction. 
 Section 8.04.
Rights of Noteholders. 
 As set forth in the Granting Clauses, the Trust Estate secures the obligation of the Issuer to pay the
Holders of the Notes, and the O/C Holder of each Series principal (and premium, if any) and interest and, if applicable, to pay the Series Enhancers for Series amounts payable under the Series Enhancement for each such Series and the other amounts
payable pursuant to this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement. Except as specifically set forth in the Indenture Supplement with respect thereto, the Notes and the O/C Certificate of any Series or Class shall not have rights to payment
from any Series Account or Series Enhancement allocated for the benefit of any other Series or Class. 
 Section 8.05. Release of
Trust Estate. 
 (a) The Indenture Trustee may, and when required by the provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to
release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the same, in a manner and under circumstances which are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument
executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article VIII shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies.

 (b) The Indenture Trustee upon Issuer Order shall authorize the Servicer to execute in the name and on behalf of the Indenture Trustee
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and other comparable instruments with respect to the Receivables (and the Indenture Trustee shall execute any such documents on request of the Servicer),
subject to the obligations of the Servicer under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. 
 (c) Upon Issuer Order, the Indenture Trustee shall,
at such time as there are no Notes or O/C Certificates outstanding, release and transfer, without recourse, any remaining portion of the Trust Estate (other than any cash held for the payment of the Notes and the O/C Certificates pursuant to
Section 4.02) from the lien of this Indenture and release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds and other property then credited to the Collection Account and any other account established pursuant to
Section 8.02 or an Indenture Supplement. The Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this Section only upon receipt of an Issuer Order accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the
Issuer and an Opinion of Counsel. 
 (d) On the date when any Receivable becomes a Defaulted Receivable, there shall automatically be
released from the lien of this Indenture, without further action, such Defaulted Receivable and any related Finance Charge Receivables, all Interchange allocable to such Defaulted Receivable, all Insurance Proceeds allocable to such Defaulted
Receivable, all 

  

 61 








 
rights to payment and amounts due or to become due with respect to all of the foregoing, and all proceeds thereof. All Recoveries and other amounts collected
by the Issuer, the Transferor or the Servicer with respect to the such Defaulted Receivables shall be paid to the Issuer, shall be deposited in the Collection Account, shall be subject to the lien of this Indenture, and shall be applied as provided
herein. 
 Section 8.06. Opinion of Counsel. 
 The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven (7) days notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to Section 8.05(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and
the Indenture Trustee shall also receive, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to
complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for the Notes or the rights of the Noteholders or the O/C
Holder in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Trust Estate. The Indenture Trustee and counsel

one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes: 
 (i) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of
this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property;

herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or in any
supplemental indenture; provided, that such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of any Series or Class of Outstanding Notes or the O/C Holders; or 
 (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor indenture trustee with respect to the Notes

 63 








 Section 9.02. Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Noteholders. 
 The Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a

institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates
thereof (or, in the case of redemption, the Redemption Date); 
 (b) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes
of any Series or all Series of Notes Outstanding, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with the provisions of this
Indenture or defaults hereunder and their consequences as provided for in this Indenture; 
 (c) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding
principal amount of any Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required to direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate if the proceeds of such sale would be insufficient to pay the principal amount and accrued but
unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes of such Series; 
 (d) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to affect
the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation) or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the
benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes contained herein; 
 (e) modify or alter the provisions of this Indenture
prohibiting the voting of Notes held by the Issuer, any other obligor on the Notes, the Transferor or any Affiliate thereof; or 
 (f) permit
the creation of any Lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the Lien of this Indenture on any part of the
Trust Estate or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the Lien of this Indenture. 
  

 64 








 The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any Notes would be affected by any supplemental
indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

 It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental
indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
 Promptly after the execution by the Issuer, the
Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates written notice setting forth in
general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 

Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 
 In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee
shall be entitled to receive, and subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee’s (as such or in its individual capacity) own rights, duties, liabilities, benefits, protections,
privileges or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. 
 Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX, this Indenture shall be modified and amended in accordance therewith with
respect to the Notes and the O/C Certificates affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Holders
of the Notes and the O/C Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be deemed to be a
part of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 
 Section 9.05. Reference in Notes and O/C Certificates to Supplemental
Indentures. 
 Notes and O/C Certificates authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this
Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer shall so determine, new Notes and O/C
Certificates so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such 

  

 65 








 
supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for the Outstanding
Notes and outstanding O/C Certificates. 
 Section 9.06. Indenture Supplements and Series Enhancers.

 TERMINATION 
 Section 10.01. Termination of Indenture. 
 The Issuer and the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Indenture Trustee to make payments to Noteholders as hereinafter set
forth) shall terminate, except with respect to the duties described in Section 10.02(b) as provided in the Trust Agreement. 
 Section 10.02. Final Distribution. 
 (a) The Servicer shall give the Indenture Trustee at least thirty (30) days
prior written notice of the Payment Date on which the Noteholders of any Series or Class or the related O/C Holder may surrender their Notes or O/C Certificate, as applicable, for payment of the final distribution on and cancellation of such Notes
or O/C Certificate (or, in the event of a final distribution resulting from the application of Section 2.06 or Section 8.01 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, notice of such Payment Date promptly after the Servicer has determined
that a final distribution will occur, if such determination is made less than thirty (30) days prior to such Payment Date). Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer setting forth the information
specified in Section 3.05 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement covering the period during the then-current calendar year through the date of such notice. Not later than the fifth (5th) day of the month in which the final distribution in
respect of such Series or Class is payable to Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee shall provide notice to Noteholders of such Series or Class specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of such Series or Class will be made upon presentation
and surrender of Notes of such Series or Class at the office or offices therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Payment Date is not applicable, payments
being made only upon presentation and surrender of such Notes at the office or offices therein specified. The Indenture Trustee shall give such notice to the Note Registrar and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Noteholders.

  

 66 








 (b) Notwithstanding a final distribution to the Noteholders of any Series or Class (or the termination of
the Issuer), except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, all funds then on deposit in the Collection Account and any Series Account allocated to such Noteholders shall continue to be held in trust for the benefit of such Noteholders and the
Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee shall pay such funds to such Noteholders upon surrender of their Notes (and any excess shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Indenture Supplement and Series Enhancement, if any, for such Series or
Class). In the event that all such Noteholders shall not surrender their Notes for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the notice from the Indenture Trustee described in paragraph (a), the Indenture Trustee shall give
a second notice to the remaining such Noteholders to surrender their Notes for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after the second notice all such Notes shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Indenture Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining such Noteholders concerning surrender of their Notes pursuant to and as described in
Section 3.03. The Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer any monies held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two (2) years pursuant to and as described in

Certificate of the Issuer stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with, and (y) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such
conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that, in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or
opinion need be furnished. 
 Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this
Indenture shall include: 
 (i) a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be
read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto; 
 (ii) a brief statement as to the nature and
scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

has been complied with; and 
  

 67 








 (iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such signatory, such condition or
covenant has been complied with. 
 (b) (i) Prior to the deposit of any property constituting part of the Trust Estate or
other property or securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in
Section 11.01(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety

Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) days of such release) of the property or securities proposed to be
released and stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding Section 2.15, this Section 11.01 or any other provision of this Indenture, the Issuer may
(or may direct the Servicer to) (A) collect, liquidate, sell or otherwise dispose of Receivables as and to the extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents and (B) make cash payments out of the Series Accounts as and to the
extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents. 
 Section 11.02. Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.

 In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary
that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more
other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Authorized Officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such Authorized Officer’s certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized
Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Servicer, the Transferor, a Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, stating
that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Transferor, such Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, unless such Authorized Officer or counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care
should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 
  

 68 








 Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two (2) or more applications, requests,
consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such
application, or as evidence of the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may
be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI. 
 Section 11.03. Acts of Noteholders. 
 (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing and satisfying any requisite percentages as to minimum number or Pound value of Outstanding principal amount represented by such Noteholders; and, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.03. 
 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Indenture Trustee deems
sufficient. 
 (c) The ownership of Notes and the O/C Certificates shall be proved by the Note Register. 
 (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder (and any
transferee thereof) of every Note issued upon the registration thereof, in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not
notation of such action is made upon such Note. 
  

 69 








 Section 11.04. Notices, Etc. to Indenture Trustee and Issuer. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by the Indenture to
be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with: 
 (a) the Indenture Trustee shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made,
given, furnished or filed in writing to a Responsible Officer, by facsimile transmission or by other means acceptable to the Indenture Trustee to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office with a copy to: Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch (attention: TSS-SFS ABS/MBS Group), Winchester House, 1 Great Winchester Street, London EC2N 2DB, United Kingdom; or 
 (b) the Paying
Agent shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (attention: TSS-SFS ABS/MBS Group), Winchester House, 1 Great Winchester Street, London EC2N 2DB, United Kingdom;
or 
 (c) the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Issuer
addressed to it at Wilmington Trust FSB, 3993 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 250, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169 or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice
received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee. 
 Section 11.05. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders or the O/C Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided, and in the case of Global Notes, notice may be given to the Noteholders through the Clearing Agency), if in writing and mailed by first-class mail postage prepaid or national overnight courier service to each Noteholder or O/C
Holder, as applicable, affected by such event, at its address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to
Noteholders or the O/C Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Noteholder or O/C Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Noteholders or the O/C Holders and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Noteholders or the O/C Holders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In the event that, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders or the O/C
Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

  

 70 








 Where this Indenture provides for notice to any Rating Agency, failure to give such notice shall not
affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder and shall not under any circumstances constitute a Default, an Event of Default, an Early Redemption Event or a Reinvestment Event. 
 Section 11.06. Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes or O/C Certificates to the contrary, the Issuer, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note or
O/C Holder providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder or O/C Holder that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer will furnish
to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements. 
 Section 11.07. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 
 The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 Section 11.08. Successors and Assigns. 
 All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the
Issuer and the Servicer shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All covenants and agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents. The parties hereby
acknowledge and agree that all of the Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement may be assigned by the Servicer to CompuCredit International Servicing LLC pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer and Servicing
Agreement. 
 Section 11.09. Separability. 
 In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. 
 Section 11.10. Benefits of Indenture. 
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Noteholders and the O/C Holders any benefit or any legal
or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 11.11. Legal Holidays. 
 In any case where the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this
Indenture) payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no additional interest (other than as specified in this Indenture
or any Indenture Supplement) shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date. 
  

 71 








 Section 11.12. Governing Law. 
 THIS INDENTURE AND EACH NOTE AND O/C CERTIFICATE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

 Section 11.13. Counterparts. 
 This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

 Section 11.14. Recording of Indenture. 
 If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (which shall be counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture
Trustee under this Indenture. 
 Section 11.15. No Petition. 
 The Indenture Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity), the Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity), the Servicer, each Noteholder

Transferor, or join in instituting against the Issuer or the Transferor, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

 Section 11.16. Inspection. 
 The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee, during the Issuer’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports,
and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer’s affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer’s officers,
employees, and Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee shall, and shall cause its representatives, to hold in confidence all such information except to
the extent disclosure may be required by law (and all reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with its
obligations hereunder or is required by the UCC. 
  

 72

or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations hereunder, the Owner Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity) shall be subject to, and
entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of the Trust Agreement.
