accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York (without regard to
any otherwise applicable principles of conflicts of law), except to the extent
that the validity or perfection of the interests of the Issuer in the
Receivables or remedies hereunder in respect thereof are governed by the laws of
a jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
