FORM OF ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES IN ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTS




(As required by Section 2.08 of the Pooling

and Servicing Agreement)




          This ASSIGNMENT No. [___] OF RECEIVABLES IN ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTS (the “Assignment”),
dated as of [___],1 is executed by and among NATIONAL CITY BANK, as Seller and
Servicer (the “Seller” and “Servicer”) THE BANK OF NEW YORK (DELAWARE), a banking
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (in such capacity, the
“Trustee”), pursuant to the Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement referred
to below.





     WHEREAS, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee are parties to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of June 1, 1995, as amended and restated as of July 1, 2000 (as may be amended
and supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”);



     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, the Seller wishes to designate Additional Accounts owned
by the Seller to be included as Accounts and to convey the Receivables of such Additional Accounts,
whether now existing or hereafter created, to the Trustee as part of the corpus of the Trust (as
each such term is defined in the Agreement); and



     WHEREAS, the Trustee is willing to accept such designation and conveyance subject to the terms
and conditions hereof.



     NOW, THEREFORE, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee hereby agree as follows:



     1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed
to them in the Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.



     “Addition Date” shall mean, with respect to the Additional Accounts designated hereby,
[___, ___].



     “Addition Cut-Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Additional Accounts designated

true and complete schedule identifying all Additional Accounts designated hereby specifying for
each such Account, as of the Addition Cut-Off Date, its account number, the aggregate amount

	1	 	To be dated as of the applicable Addition Date.




 










 









such Account, which computer file, microfiche list or printed list shall be marked as Schedule
1 to this Assignment, shall be incorporated into and made a part of this Assignment and the
Agreement, and shall supplement Schedule 1 to the Agreement.




     3. Conveyance of Receivables. (a) The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set
over and otherwise convey to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, all its right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables of the
Additional Accounts designated hereby existing at the close of business on the Addition Date and
thereafter created from time to time until the termination of the Trust, all monies due or to
become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and all proceeds (including “proceeds” as
defined in the UCC) thereof. The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to result in
the creation or assumption by the Trust, the Trustee, any Investor Certificateholder or any Series
Enhancer of any obligation of the Servicer, the Seller or any other Person in connection with the
Accounts, the Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any
obligation to Obligors, merchant banks, merchants clearance systems, VISA, MasterCard or insurers.



          (a) The Seller agrees to record and file, at its own expense, financing statements (and
continuation statements when applicable) with respect to the Receivables now existing in the
Additional Accounts designated hereby, meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such
manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the sale
and assignment of such Receivables to the Trustee, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of each such
financing statement or other evidence of such filing to the Trustee on or prior to the Addition
Date. The Trustee shall be under no obligation whatsoever to file such financing or continuation
statements or to make any other filing under the UCC in connection with such sale and assignment.




          (b) In connection with such sale, the Seller further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior
to the date of this Assignment, to indicate in the appropriate computer files that Receivables
created in connection with the Additional Accounts and designated hereby have been conveyed to the
Trustee pursuant to the Agreement and this Assignment for the benefit of the Certificateholders.




          (c) The Seller does hereby grant to the Trustee a security interest in all of its right, title
and interest in and to the Receivables now existing and hereafter created in the Additional
Accounts designated hereby, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect
thereto and all “proceeds” (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof. This Assignment
constitutes a security agreement under the UCC.




     4. Acceptance by Trustee. The Trustee hereby acknowledges its acceptance, on behalf
of the Trust, of all right, title and interest to the property, now existing and hereafter created,
conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Sections 3(a) and 3(d) of this Assignment, and declares that it
shall maintain such right, title and interest, upon the trust set forth in the Agreement for the
benefit of all Certificateholders. The Trustee further acknowledges that, prior to or
simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Assignment, the Seller delivered to the
Trustee the computer file, microfiche list or printed list described in Section 2 of this
Assignment.



 









 





     5. Representations and Warranties of the Seller. The Seller hereby represents and
warrants to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, as of the date of this Assignment and as of the
Addition Date that:



          (a) Legal Valid and Binding Obligation. This Assignment constitutes a legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights in general and the rights of creditors of national banking associations and except as such
enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law
or in equity);




          (b) Eligibility of Accounts. Each Additional Account designated hereby is an Eligible
Account;




          (c) Insolvency. As of each of the Addition Cut-Off Date and the Addition Date, no
Insolvency Event with respect to the Seller has occurred and the transfer by the Seller of
Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts to the Trustee has not been made in contemplation of
the occurrence thereof;




          (d) Pay Out Event. The Seller reasonably believes that (i) the addition of the
Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts will not, based on the facts known to the Seller,
then or thereafter cause a Pay Out Event to occur with respect to any Series and (ii) no selection
procedure was utilized by the Seller which would result in the selection of Additional Accounts
(from among the available Eligible Accounts owned by the Seller) that would be materially adverse
to the interests of the Investor Certificateholders of any Series as of the Addition Date;




          (e) Security Interest. This Assignment constitutes a valid sale, transfer and
assignment to the Trustee of all right, title and interest of the Seller in the Receivables now
existing or hereafter created in the Additional Accounts designated hereby, all monies due or to
become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and the “proceeds” (including “proceeds”
as defined in the UCC as in effect in the States of New York, Delaware and [other applicable
states]) thereof, or, if this Assignment does not constitute a sale of such property, it
constitutes a grant of a “security interest” (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the States of
New York, Delaware and [other applicable states]) in such property to the Trustee, which, in the
case of existing Receivables and the proceeds thereof, is enforceable upon execution and delivery
of this Assignment, and which will be enforceable with respect to such Receivables hereafter
created and the proceeds thereof upon such creation. Upon the filing of the financing statements
described in Section 3 of this Assignment and, in the case of the Receivables hereafter created and
the proceeds thereof, upon the creation thereof, the Trustee shall have a first priority perfected
security or ownership interest in such property; provided, however, that such security interest in
proceeds shall remain perfected after twenty days from their receipt by the Seller only to the
extent that such proceeds are identifiable cash proceeds (subject to Section 9-315 of the UCC);




          (f) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by the Seller of this Assignment, the
performance of the transactions contemplated by this Assignment and the fulfillment of the





 









 







terms hereof applicable to the Seller, will not conflict with or violate any Requirements of
Law applicable to the Seller or conflict with, result in any breach of any of the material terms
and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a material
default under, any indenture, contract, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to
which the Seller is a party or by which it or its properties are bound;




          (g) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations, pending or, to the
best knowledge of the Seller, threatened against the Seller before any court, regulatory body,
administrative agency or other tribunal or governmental instrumentality (i) asserting the
invalidity of this Assignment, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated by this Assignment, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable
judgment of the Seller, would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Seller of its
obligations under this Assignment, (iv) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially
and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Assignment or (v) seeking to affect
adversely the income tax attributes of the Trust under the federal, or applicable state income or
franchise tax laws; and




          (h) All Consents. All authorizations, consents, orders or approvals or other actions
of any Person or of any court or other governmental authority required to be obtained by the Seller
in connection with the execution and delivery of this Assignment by the Seller and the performance
of the transactions contemplated by this Assignment by the Seller, have been obtained except where
the failure to obtain such authorizations, consents, orders or approvals would not have a material
adverse effect on the Investor Certificateholders.




     6. Ratification of Agreement. As supplemented by this Assignment, the Agreement is in
all respects ratified and confirmed and the Agreement as so supplemented by this Assignment shall
be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.



     7. Counterparts. This Assignment may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by
different parties on separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same instrument.



     8. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Agent for Service of Process. This
Assignment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
without regard to principles of conflict of laws. The parties hereto declare that it is their
intention that this Assignment shall be regarded as made under the laws of the State of Delaware
and that the laws of said State shall be applied in interpreting its provisions in all cases where
legal interpretation shall be required. Each of the parties hereto agrees (a) that this Assignment
involves at least $100,000.00, and (b) that this Assignment has been entered into by the parties
hereto in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (a) to be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the
State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware, and (b)(1) to the
extent such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, to
appoint and maintain an agent in the State of Delaware as such party’s agent for acceptance of
legal process, and (2) that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, service of process
may also be made on such party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated
by the United States Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service, and that



 









 







service made pursuant to (b)(1) or (2) above shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within

reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the

selection procedure was utilized by the Removal Seller which would result in a selection of Removed
Accounts that would be materially adverse to the interests of the Investor Certificateholders of
any Series as of the Removal Date; and
