At any time that a Pro Rata Funding Event has occurred and is continuing, the amount of any reduction in the Class A Funded Amount on the Refinancing Date shall be allocated among the Class A Ownership Interests on a pro rata basis based on their respective Class A Ownership Group Percentages; provided however that if a Pro Rata Funding Event has occurred and is continuing, and a reduction is requested at such time as a Pro Rata Allocation does not exist, then the amount

			With respect to any Monthly Period when deposits of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables into the Finance Charge Account are limited in accordance with clause (x) of the preceding proviso, notwithstanding such limitation: Collections of Finance Charge Receivables released to Transferor pursuant to such clause (x) shall be deemed, for purposes of all calculations under this Series Supplement, to have been applied to the items specified in subsection 4.11(a), to which such amounts would have been applied (and in the priority in which they would have been applied) had such amounts been available in the Finance Charge Account on such Transfer Date. Notwithstanding such clause (x) above, if on any Business Day Servicer determines that the Target Amount for a Monthly Period exceeds the Target Amount for that Monthly Period as previously calculated by Servicer, then (x) Servicer shall (on the same Business Day) inform Transferor of such determination, and (y) within two Business Days of receiving such notice Transferor shall deposit into the Finance Charge Account funds in an amount equal to the amount of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocated to the Investor Holders for that Monthly Period but not deposited into the Finance Charge Account due to the operation of such clause (x) (but not in excess of the amount required so that the aggregate amount deposited for the subject Monthly Period equals the Target Amount). In addition, if on any Transfer Date the Transferor Amount will be less than the Specified Transferor Amount after giving effect to all transfers and deposits on that Transfer Date, Transferor shall, on that Transfer Date, deposit into the Principal Account funds in an amount equal to the amounts of available funds that are required to be treated as Investor Principal Collections pursuant to Sections 4.11(a)(viii) - (xv) but are not available from funds in the Finance Charge Account as a result of the operation of clause (x); and provided further that, except as provided in the immediately preceding proviso, no funds shall be required to be deposited to the Principal Account pursuant to Sections 4.11(a)(viii) – (xv) unless such funds are required to make payments pursuant to Sections 4.11(c)(i) – (iv) on the related Transfer Date.

Class A Additional Amounts payable on any Distribution Date shall, so long as they equal less than 0.5% of the Weighted Average Class A Invested Amount over the related Distribution Period, constitute “Class A Senior Additional Amounts.” Any Class A Additional Amounts payable on any Distribution Date in excess of the foregoing limitation shall constitute “Class A Subordinate Additional Amounts.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     If any distribution of principal is made with respect to any Class A Funding Tranche with a Fixed Period and a fixed interest rate for such period other than (i) on the last day of that Fixed Period or (ii) on a Distribution Date during the Controlled Amortization Period, or if the Class A Funded Amount of any Class A Ownership Interest is reduced by an Optional Amortization Amount in an amount greater than the amount (if any) specified in the Certificate Purchase Agreement with respect to that Class A Ownership Interest without the applicable number (as specified in the Certificate Purchase Agreement) of Business Days’ prior notice to the affected Class A Holder, and in either case (i) the interest paid by the Class A Holder holding that Class A Funding Tranche to providers of funds to it to fund that Class A Funding Tranche exceeds (ii) returns earned by that Class A Holder through the last day of that Fixed Period by redeployment of such funds in highly rated short-term money market instruments, then, upon written notice (which notice shall be signed by an officer of that Class A Holder with knowledge of and responsibility for such matters and shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting the amounts, and shall be conclusive with respect to the amounts calculated thereon, absent manifest error) from such Class A Holder to Servicer, such Class A Holder shall be entitled to receive additional amounts in the amount of such excess (each, a “Breakage Payment”) on the Distribution Date on or immediately succeeding the date such distribution of principal is made with respect to that Class A Funding Tranche, so long as such written notice is received not later than noon, New York City time, on the Transfer Date related to such Distribution Date. For purposes of calculations under this paragraph, any payment received by a Class A Holder later than noon, New York City time, on any day shall be deemed to have been received on the next day.

			Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class C Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections on such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class C Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero.  If such reduction would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class B Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections on such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the Class M Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero.  If such reduction would cause the Class M Invested Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class M Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections on such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class A Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class M Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not by more than the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Transfer Date (a “Class A Investor Charge-Off”). If the Class A Invested Amount has been reduced by the amount of any Class A Investor Charge-Offs, it will be reimbursed on any Transfer Date (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class A Investor Charge-Offs) by the amount of Available Funds allocated and available for such purpose, pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(ix).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     On or before each Transfer Date, Servicer shall calculate the Class M Investor Default Amount. If, on any Transfer Date, the Class M Investor Default Amount for the prior Monthly Period exceeds the Available Funds allocated with respect thereto pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(x), the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess.  If such reduction would cause the Class C Invested Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class C Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections and reductions pursuant to Section 4.12(a) on such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class C Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero.  If such reduction would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class B Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections and reductions pursuant to Section 4.12(a) on such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the Class M Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not by more than the Class M Investor Default Amount for such Transfer Date (a “Class M Investor Charge-Off”). If the Class M Invested Amount has been reduced by the amount of any Class M Investor Charge-Offs, it will be reimbursed on any Transfer Date (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class M Investor Charge-Offs) by the amount of Available Funds allocated and available for such purpose, pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(xi).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)     On or before each Transfer Date, Servicer shall calculate the Class B Investor Default Amount.  If, on any Transfer Date, the Class B Investor Default Amount for the prior Monthly Period exceeds the amount of Available Funds allocated with respect thereto pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(xii), the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess.  If such reduction would cause the Class C Invested Amount (after giving effect to reductions for any Class C Investor Charge-Offs and Reallocated Principal Collections and reductions pursuant to Sections 4.12(a) and (b) for such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class C Invested Amount would have been reduced below

The Class B Invested Amount will thereafter be reimbursed on any Transfer Date by the amount of the Available Funds allocated and available for that purpose as described under Section 4.11(a)(xiii).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)     On or before each Transfer Date, Servicer shall calculate the Class C Investor Default Amount. If, on any Transfer Date, the Class C Investor Default Amount for the prior Monthly Period exceeds the Available Funds allocated with respect thereto pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(xiv), the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess (a “Class C Investor Charge-Off”).  The Class C Invested Amount will thereafter be reimbursed on any Transfer Date (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class C Investor Charge-Offs) by the amount of Available Funds allocated and available for such purpose, pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(xv).
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.13      [Reserved].
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.14     Reallocated Principal Collections.  On or before each Transfer Date, Servicer shall instruct Trustee in writing (which writing shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B) to, and Trustee in accordance with such instructions shall, withdraw Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to such Transfer Date from the Principal Account, in an amount equal to the sum of the Class A Required Amount, if any, plus the Class M Required Amount, if any, plus the Class B Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Transfer Date and such Reallocated Principal Collections shall be applied to fund any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in Section 4.11.  On each Transfer Date, the Class C Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections applied on such Transfer Date.  If such reduction would cause the Class C Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class C Investor Charge-Offs for such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class C Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which the Reallocated Principal Collections applied on such Transfer Date exceed the Class C Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class C Investor Charge-Offs for such Transfer Date).  If such reduction would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class B Investor Charge-Offs for such Transfer Date) to be a negative number, the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero and the Class M Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which the Reallocated Principal Collections applied on such Transfer Date exceed the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class B Investor Charge-Offs for such Transfer Date).
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.15     Shared Principal Collections; Amounts Transferred from the Excess Funding Account to the Principal Account.  (a)  The amount of Shared Principal Collections allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 on any Transfer Date shall be applied as Available Investor Principal Collections pursuant to Section 4.11 and, pursuant to such Section 4.11, shall be deposited in the Distribution Account or distributed in accordance with the Certificate Purchase Agreements.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     Shared Principal Collections allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 with respect to any Transfer Date means an amount equal to the Principal Shortfall, if any, with respect to Series 2009-VFC1 for such Transfer Date; provided that if the aggregate amount of Shared Principal

			Collections for all Series in Group One for such Transfer Date is less than the Cumulative Principal Shortfall for such Transfer Date, then Shared Principal Collections allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 on such Transfer Date shall equal the product of (i) Shared Principal Collections for all Series in Group One for such Transfer Date and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Principal Shortfall with respect to Series 2009-VFC1 for such Transfer Date and the denominator of which is the Cumulative Principal Shortfall for such Transfer Date.

			(d)     The aggregate amount allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 which shall be required to be transferred from the Excess Funding Account into the Principal Account with respect to any Transfer Date in a Fixed Allocation Period (commencing with the Transfer Date in the first calendar month after the calendar month in which the Fixed Allocation Period begins) shall equal the Principal Shortfall, if any, with respect to Series 2009-VFC1 for such Transfer Date minus the amount of Shared Principal Collections allocated to Series 2009-VFC1 from other Series in Group One on that Transfer Date; provided that if the aggregate amount required to be withdrawn from the Excess Funding Account pursuant to Section 4.2 for all Series (in each case, whether or not included in Group One) for such Transfer Date is less than the amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account, then the aggregate amount allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 and required to be transferred on such Transfer Date shall equal the product of (i) the amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account and (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is (A) the Principal Shortfall with respect to Series 2009-VFC1 for such Transfer Date minus the amount of Shared Principal Collections allocated to Series 2009-VFC1 from other Series in Group One on that Transfer Date and (B) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount required to be withdrawn from the Excess Funding Account pursuant to Section 4.2 for all Series for such Transfer Date.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.16     Finance Charge Account, Principal Account and Distribution Account.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)     Trustee shall establish and maintain with an Eligible Institution, which may be Trustee, in the name of the Trust, on behalf of the Trust , as Series Accounts for the benefit of the Investor Holders, three segregated trust accounts with the corporate trust department of such Eligible Institution (the “Finance Charge Account”, the “Principal Account” and the “Distribution Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Investor Holders.  Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Trustee for the benefit of the Investor Holders.  If at any time the institution holding the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Institution, Transferor shall notify Trustee, and Trustee upon being notified (or Servicer on its behalf) shall, within 10 Business Days, establish a new Finance Charge Account, a new Principal Account and a new Distribution Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Finance Charge Account, Principal Account and Distribution Account.

Trustee at all times shall maintain accurate records reflecting each transaction in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account and that the funds held therein shall at all times be held in trust for the benefit of the Investor Holders.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     Funds on deposit in the Finance Charge Account and the Principal Account shall be invested at the specific written direction of Servicer by Trustee in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in the Finance Charge Account and Principal Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Principal Account on such Transfer Date, shall be invested in such investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. The Trustee shall maintain for the benefit of the Investor Holders possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing such Eligible Investments. Gains from such Eligible Investments shall be deposited into the Finance Charge Account and be treated as Finance Charge Receivables for purposes of this Series Supplement. No Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity unless prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment. On each Distribution Date, all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Finance Charge Account and the Principal Account shall be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocable to Series 2009-VFC1 with respect to the last day of the related Monthly Period.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.17      [Reserved].
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.18     Transferor’s or Servicer’s Failure to Make a Deposit or Payment.  If Servicer or Transferor fails to make, or give instructions to make, any payment or deposit required to be made or given by Servicer or Transferor, respectively, at the time specified in the Agreement (including applicable grace periods), Trustee shall make such payment or deposit from the Finance Charge Account, the Excess Funding Account, the Principal Account or the Distribution Account without instruction from Servicer or Transferor.  Trustee shall be required to make any such payment, deposit or withdrawal hereunder only to the extent that Trustee has sufficient information to allow it to determine the amount thereof.  The Trustee shall have no liability for failing to make a payment in the event it reasonably believes it has insufficient information to allow it to determine the amount thereof.  Servicer shall, upon request of Trustee, promptly provide Trustee with all information necessary to allow Trustee to make such payment, deposit or withdrawal.  Such funds or the proceeds of such withdrawal shall be applied by Trustee in the manner in which such payment or deposit should have been made by Transferor or Servicer, as the case may be.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.19     Interchange.  On or prior to each Determination Date, Transferor shall cause RPA Seller to notify Servicer of the Account Interchange Amount (as defined in the Receivable Purchase Agreement).

			(b)     the Floating Allocation Percentage for such Monthly Period (or, if a Reset Date occurs during such Monthly Period, the average Floating Allocation Percentage for such Monthly Period determined as the quotient of the summation of the Floating Allocation Percentages for all days during such Monthly Period, divided by the number of days in such Monthly Period).
		

		
			 
		

		
			On each Transfer Date, Transferor shall pay to Servicer, and, unless the Target Amount shall have been met pursuant to Section 4.7(d), Servicer shall deposit into the Finance Charge Account, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the Investor Interchange Amount to be included as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocable to the Investor Holders with respect to the related Monthly Period.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 4.20     Spread Account.  (a)  Not later than the Closing Date, the Servicer shall establish and maintain with an Eligible Institution, which shall initially be the Trustee, in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust (the “Spread Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Class B Holders and the Transferor.  In the event that at any time the financial institution holding the Spread Account shall fail to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer may direct the Spread Account to be moved to an Eligible Institution and all funds on deposit in the Spread Account be transferred to such new Spread Account at such Eligible Institution, whereupon such new Spread Account shall constitute the Spread Account hereunder.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Class B Holders shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Spread Account and in all proceeds thereof.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Spread Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee, on behalf of the Class B Holders and the Transferor.  On or prior to each Incremental Funding, the Transferor shall deposit into the Spread Account an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Spread Account Cap (after giving effect to the Incremental Funding to take place on such date) and the Spread Account Amount on such date.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     Funds on deposit in the Spread Account shall be invested at the specific written direction of the Servicer in Eligible Investments; provided, however, that  for purposes of the investment of funds on deposit in the Spread Account, references in the definition of “Eligible Investments” to “highest investment category” shall be modified to require a rating of not lower than “A-2” in the case of Standard & Poor’s, “P-2” in the case of Moody’s or the equivalent rating in the case of any other rating agency.  Funds on deposit in the Spread Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from and deposits to the Spread Account on such Transfer Date, shall be invested in such investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date.  The holder of the Spread Account shall maintain for the benefit of the Class B Holders and the Transferor possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing the investment of funds in the Spread Account in Eligible Investments.  On each Transfer Date (but subject to Section 4.20(c)), the Investment Earnings, if any, accrued since the preceding Transfer Date on funds on deposit in the Spread Account shall be paid to the Transferor by the holder of the Spread Account and for purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Spread Account for any

			reason under this Agreement, all Investment Earnings shall be determined not to be available or on deposit.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)     If, on any Transfer Date, the aggregate amount available for distribution pursuant to Section 4.11(a)(vi) is less than the unpaid Class B Monthly Interest, the Servicer shall direct the holder of the Spread Account to withdraw the amount of such deficiency, up to the Spread Account Amount and, if the Spread Account Amount is less than such deficiency, Investment Earnings credited to the Spread Account, from the Spread Account and distribute such amount to the Class B Holders.  If on the Amendment Closing Date or any Transfer Date, after giving effect to all withdrawals from, and deposits to, the Spread Account, the amount on deposit in the Spread Account (excluding Investment Earnings) would exceed the Spread Account Cap then in effect, the Servicer shall direct the holder of the Spread Account to release such excess to the Transferor.  On the date on which all amounts payable to the Class B Holders pursuant to the Class B Certificate Purchase Agreement have been paid in full, the Servicer shall direct the holder of the Spread Account to withdraw all amounts then remaining in the Spread Account (including Investment Earnings) and pay such amounts to the Transferor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 9.      Article V of the Agreement.  Article V of the Agreement shall read in its entirety as follows and shall be applicable only to the Investor Holders:

Distributions of Investor Monthly Interest, Class A Non-Use Fee and Class A Additional Amounts shall be made to each applicable Investor Holder in an amount equal to the amount payable to each or, if less, the aggregate amount allocated for such payment pursuant to Section 4.11(a).  Except as permitted by Section 4(b), all distributions with respect to principal shall be made on a pro rata basis. All such payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, provided that the Paying Agent, not less than five Business Days prior to the Record Date relating to the first distribution to such Investor Holder, has been furnished with appropriate wiring instructions in writing.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 5.2     Reports.

			(b)     Annual Holders’ Tax Statement. On or before January 31 of each calendar year, beginning with calendar year 2010, Trustee shall distribute to each Person who at any time during the preceding calendar year was an Investor Holder, a statement prepared by Servicer setting out the amount of interest and principal distributed to such Investor Holder with respect

			to its Certificates, during such preceding calendar year or the applicable portion thereof during which such Person was an Investor Holder together with such other customary information (consistent with the treatment of the Class A Certificates as debt) as Servicer deems necessary or desirable to enable the Investor Holders to prepare their tax returns. Such obligations of Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 10.      Early Amortization Events.  If any one of the following events shall occur with respect to the Investor Certificates:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)     failure on the part of Transferor (i) to make any payment or deposit required by the terms of (A) the Agreement, (B) this Series Supplement, (C) the Certificate Purchase Agreements or (D) any Class A Fee Letter, on or before the date occurring five days after the date such payment or deposit is required to be made herein or therein or (ii) duly to observe or perform in any material respect any covenants or agreements of Transferor set forth in the Agreement, this Series Supplement, the Certificate Purchase Agreements or any Class A Fee Letter, which failure (in the case of this clause (ii)) has a material adverse effect on the Investor Holders and which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to Transferor by Trustee, or to Transferor and Trustee by any Investor Holder and continues to affect materially and adversely the interests of the Investor Holders for such period;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     any representation or warranty made by Transferor in the Agreement or this Series Supplement, or any information contained in an Account Schedule required to be delivered by Transferor pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.6, (i) shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or when delivered, which continues to be incorrect in any material respect for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to Transferor by Trustee, or to Transferor and Trustee by any Investor Holder, and (ii) as a result of which the interests of the Investor Holders are materially and adversely affected and continue to be materially and adversely affected for such period; provided that an Early Amortization Event pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall not be deemed to have occurred hereunder if Transferor has accepted reassignment of the related Receivable, or all of such Receivables, if applicable, during such period in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement; 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)     the average of the Excess Spread Percentages for any three consecutive Monthly Periods is less than zero;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)     Transferor shall fail to convey Receivables arising under Additional Accounts, or Participations, to the Trust, as required by Section 2.8(b);  provided that such failure shall not give rise to an Early Amortization Event if, prior to the date on which such conveyance was required to be completed, Transferor causes a reduction in the Invested Amount to occur, so that, after giving effect to that reduction (i) the Transferor Amount is not less than the Minimum Transferor Amount and (ii) the sum of the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables plus amounts on deposit in the Excess Funding Account is not less than the Required Principal Balance; and provided further that no Early Amortization Event shall occur pursuant to this clause (d) during a Mandatory Limited Amortization Period caused by the occurrence of a 
		

		
			
		

		
			


		 


		

			53

		





 



		

			 

		





		

		
			Merchant Bankruptcy Event unless such failure has not been cured by the related Merchant Bankruptcy Termination Date; it being understood that such failure shall be deemed cured so long as the Transferor Amount is not less than the Minimum Transferor Amount and the sum of the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables plus amounts on deposit in the Excess Funding Account is not less than the Required Principal Balance, in each case as of the Merchant Bankruptcy Termination Date;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)     any Servicer Default shall occur; 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)     the Invested Amount shall not be paid in full on the Scheduled Final Payment Date or the Non-Renewing Purchaser Funded Amount shall not be paid in full on the Non-Renewing Purchaser Scheduled Distribution Date;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)     as of any Determination Date, the average of the monthly payment rates for that Determination Date and the preceding two Determination Dates is less than 7.75%, where the “monthly payment rate” for any Determination Date equals the percentage equivalent of a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the aggregate Collections received during the related Monthly Period and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the total Receivables held by the Trust at the close of business for the Monthly Period immediately prior to such related Monthly Period; provided that the monthly payment rates for the Determination Dates related to the February 2009 and March 2009 Monthly Periods shall be deemed to equal the “monthly payments rates” (calculated in accordance with the Series 2005-VFC Supplement to the Agreement) related to the February 2009 and March 2009 Monthly Periods;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(h)     the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation shall file notice of a lien pursuant to Section 4068 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 with regard to any of the assets of Comenity, which lien shall secure a liability in excess of $10,000,000 and shall not have been released within 40 days;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)     a default shall have occurred and be continuing under any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing indebtedness for borrowed money of Comenity in excess of $10,000,000 which default (i) is a default in payment of any principal or interest on such indebtedness when due or within any applicable grace period or (ii) shall have resulted in acceleration of the maturity of such indebtedness; 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(j)     a Change in Control has occurred; or
		

		
			 
		

		
			(k)     a Mandatory Limited Amortization Period resulting from a Merchant Bankruptcy Event has occurred and any related Mandatory Limited Amortization Amount shall not have been reduced to zero by the Merchant Bankruptcy Termination Date;
		

		
			 
		

		
			then, (x) in the case of any event described in Sections 10(a),  (b),  (e),  (h), (i) or (j) of this Series Supplement, after the applicable grace period set forth in such Sections, either Trustee or the Majority Series Holders by notice then given in writing to Transferor and Servicer (and to Trustee if given by the Investor Holders) may declare that an early amortization event (an “Early Amortization Event”) has occurred as of the date of such notice, and (y) in the case of any event described in Section 10(c),  (d), (f), (g) or (k) of this Series Supplement, an Early Amortization Event shall occur without any notice or other action on the part of Trustee or the Investor

			SECTION 12.     Periodic Finance Charges and Other Fees.  Transferor hereby agrees that, except as otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, or as is deemed by Transferor to be necessary in order for Transferor to maintain its credit card business, based upon a good faith assessment by Transferor, in its sole discretion, of the nature of the competition in the credit card business, it shall not at any time reduce the Periodic Finance Charges assessed on any Receivable or other fees on any Account if, as a result of such reduction, Transferor’s reasonable expectation of the Portfolio Yield as of such date would be less than the then Base Rate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 13.     Limitations on Addition of Approved Portfolios.  Subject to Section 2.8, Transferor may designate additional Approved Portfolios if on or prior to the Addition Date related to any Account in such Approved Portfolio, (a) such designation shall be consented to in writing by each Investor Holder and (b) Transferor shall have provided the Investor Holders with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the designation of such Approved Portfolios, as of the related Addition Date (and after giving effect to such designation) is not reasonably expected to cause an Early Amortization Event.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 14.     Counterparts.  This Series Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

			55

		





 



		

			 

		





		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     Servicer shall, in connection with each designation of Removed Accounts pursuant to Section 2.9(b), prepare and provide Trustee prior to the transfer of such Removed Accounts, and Trustee shall forward to each Investor Holder, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C for each of the three Monthly Periods preceding such designation as if the Receivables in such Removed Accounts never existed.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)     Without the consent of each Investor Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Transferor shall not (i) engage in any transaction described in Section 6.3(d) or 7.2, (ii) designate additional or substitute Transferors or Credit Card Originators as permitted by Section 2.11 or 2.12, (iii) increase the percentage of Principal Receivables referred to in the proviso to clause (f) of the definition of “Eligible Account”, (iv) purchase any Investor Certificate (as defined in the Agreement) unless such Investor Certificate is promptly retired, in accordance with the applicable Supplement, (v) amend any Transaction Document in a manner that adversely affects the Investor Holders, (vi) amend the Agreement to permit the addition of receivables arising in VISA, MasterCard or any other type of open end revolving credit card account other than those an Approved Portfolio as of the date hereof and (vii) amend this Series Supplement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)     Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.9(a), the deposits into the Excess Funding Account required by the penultimate sentence of the first grammatical paragraph of that Section shall be made not later than the Business Day following the day on which the Transferor Amount falls below the Specified Transferor Amount. Amounts deposited in the Excess Funding Account pursuant to this Section 17(e) shall be deemed for all purposes of the Agreement to have been deposited pursuant to such penultimate sentence.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)     Upon the occurrence of a Merchant Bankruptcy (other than with respect to Service Merchandise), Comenity shall cause such Merchant to either segregate or stop In-Store Payments until such time as the Credit Card Processing Agreement of such Merchant is assumed by the trustee, debtor-in-possession, receiver, custodian or other similar official in the insolvency proceeding of that Merchant unless 100% of the Holders of Series 2009-VFC1 Certificateholders shall have consented to continuation of In-Store Payments without the requirement to segregate such In-Store Payments.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)     Notwithstanding Section 4.4, during any Amortization Period for any Series, Transferor may not apply Shared Principal Collections as principal with respect to any Variable Interest (including Series 2009-VFC1), unless such application of principal is made on any Transfer Date or related Distribution Date in connection with the application of Shared Principal Collections pursuant to Section 4.15 (and for purposes of such application pursuant to Section 4.15, the Principal Shortfall for any Variable Interest shall not include amounts required for any optional amortization amount).

			56

		





 



		

			 

		





		

		
			received from Comenity.  Such amount shall be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables and allocated in accordance with Article IV.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Agreement, during a Mandatory Limited Amortization Period caused by a Merchant Bankruptcy Event, the Transferor shall not be in breach of the obligation set forth in Section 2.8(b) of the Agreement to convey Receivables arising under Supplemental Accounts until the Distribution Date following the fourth Monthly Period after the Monthly Period in which the most recent Merchant Bankruptcy occurred (the “Merchant Bankruptcy Termination Date”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(j)     For all purposes of the Agreement and this Series Supplement, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement or this Series Supplement, the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables held by the Trust as of any date of determination shall be calculated by subtracting the Excess Merchant Bankruptcy Amount from the aggregate amount of such Principal Receivables; provided that (i) for purposes of calculating the Servicing Fee, and (ii) for purposes of clause (f) of the definition of “Eligible Account”, the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables shall be determined without subtraction of the Excess Bankruptcy Amount, and for purposes of calculating the denominator of the monthly payment rates in Section 10(g) of this Series Supplement, the Excess Merchant Bankruptcy Amount shall not be subtracted from the total Receivables.  For the avoidance of doubt, references to Collections with respect to Principal Receivables in the Agreement and the Series Supplement (including without limitation for purposes of clauses (ii) through (v) of Sections 4.7(b) and (c)) shall refer to Collections on all Principal Receivables without adjustment for any Excess Merchant Bankruptcy Amount.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(k)     To the extent that the sum of (i) the Seller’s Interest and (ii) amounts on deposit in the Excess Funding Account (excluding any investment earnings on deposit therein) is less than the Required Seller’s Interest as of the last day of any Monthly Period (each, an “RR Measurement Date”), the Transferor shall cause the Seller’s Interest to be increased to an amount such that the sum of (i) the Seller’s Interest and (ii) amounts on deposit in the Excess Funding Account (excluding any investment earnings on deposit therein) will be equal to or greater than the Required Seller’s Interest on or before the following RR Measurement Date; provided, that this Section 17(k) shall not be applicable if Regulation RR shall no longer be in effect; and provided,  further, that failure to satisfy the foregoing covenant shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement if at the time of such failure, the transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents shall otherwise be in compliance with the requirements of Regulation RR.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(l)     For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Trustee have any responsibility to monitor or enforce compliance with, or be charged with knowledge of Regulation RR or any rules or regulations promulgated in connection therewith, nor shall it be liable to any investor or any other party whatsoever for any violation of Regulation RR or any rules or regulations promulgated in connection therewith or any similar provisions in effect or the breach of any related term of the Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto. 
		

		
			 
		

		
			(m)     The Servicer will include the amount of the Seller’s Interest (as of the Amendment Closing Date) in the first statement delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(a) following the Amendment Closing Date.

			SECTION 18.     Amendments to the Agreement.  Section 6.3(b)(iv) of the Agreement shall read in its entirety as follows “(iv) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such issuance;”.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 19.     No Petition.  Servicer, Transferor (with respect to the Trust only) and Trustee, by entering into this Series Supplement, and each Holder, by accepting a Series 2009-VFC1 Certificate, hereby covenant and agree that they will not at any time institute against the Trust, or join in any institution against the Trust or the Transferor of, any bankruptcy proceedings under any United States Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Investor Holders, the Agreement or this Series Supplement. 
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 20.     GAAP Sale.  The parties hereto intend the transfers of Receivables under the Agreement to be treated as a sale, and not a secured borrowing, for accounting purposes.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 21.     Consents.  Comenity, in its capacity as Class M Holder and Class B Holder, and WFN Credit Company, LLC, in its capacity as Class C Holder, each, by executing this agreement, consents to (a) an increase in the Class M Maximum Funded Amount, Class B Maximum Funded Amount and Class C Maximum Funded Amount, as applicable, and (b) the execution of this Series Supplement.
