ARTICLE II


CONTRIBUTION, SALE, CONVEYANCE, AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES


Section 2.01.  Contribution and Sale.


(a)  For good and valuable consideration of which BANA acknowledges that FIA has previously acknowledged receipt, and for the payment of the portion of the Purchase Price relating to the Contributed Assets as provided in the Original Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement, FIA did contribute, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to BACCS (collectively, the "Contribution"), without recourse except as provided in the Original Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement, all of FIA's right, title and interest, whether then owned or thereafter acquired, in, to and under (i) the Receivables existing as of Closing Date in the Initial Accounts, (ii) all Interchange, Insurance Proceeds, and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, (iii) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, (iv) all Collections with respect thereto, and (v) all proceeds (including "proceeds" as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the "Contributed Assets").  BANA hereby acknowledges FIA's prior contribution of the Contributed Assets and does hereby contribute, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to BACCS without recourse except as provided herein, any right, title or interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under any of the Contributed Assets that BANA may be deemed to have.


(b)  Each of BANA and BACCS does hereby acknowledge and confirm the prior sales of Purchased Assets by FIA to BACCS pursuant to the Original Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement.  For good and valuable consideration of which BANA hereby acknowledges receipt, and for the payment of the portion of the Purchase Price from time to time hereafter relating to the Purchased Assets as provided herein, BANA does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to BACCS (collectively, the "Sale" and together with the Contribution, the "Conveyance"), without recourse except as provided herein, all of BANA's right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under (i) the Receivables created from time to time on and after the date hereof in each Initial Account and the Receivables existing on the related Addition Cut Off Date and created from time to time after that Addition Cut Off Date in each Additional Account, (ii) all Interchange, Insurance Proceeds, and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, (iii) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, (iv) all Collections with respect thereto, and (v) all proceeds (including "proceeds" as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the "Purchased Assets").


(c)  Principal Receivables in each Initial Account that existed on the Closing Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Contributed Assets, were contributed by FIA and received by BACCS on the Closing Date.  Principal Receivables in each Initial Account that arose after the Closing Date and prior to the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, were sold by FIA and purchased by BACCS on the date on which those Principal Receivables arose.  Principal Receivables in each 



-8-







Initial Account that arise after the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, are sold by BANA and purchased by BACCS on the date on which those Principal Receivables arise.  Principal Receivables in each Additional Account that exist on the related Addition Cut Off Date and thereafter arising in such Additional Accounts on or prior to the related Addition Date in each case prior to the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, were sold by FIA and purchased by BACCS on the related Addition Date.  Principal Receivables in each Additional Account that exist on the related Addition Cut Off Date and thereafter arising in such Additional Accounts on or prior to the related Addition Date in each case on or following the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, are sold by BANA and purchased by BACCS on the related Addition Date.  Principal Receivables in each Additional Account that arose after the related Addition Date and in each case prior to the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, were sold by FIA and purchased by BACCS on the date on which those Principal Receivables arose.  Principal Receivables in each Additional Account that arise after the related Addition Date and in each case on or following the Merger Date, and the related Finance Charge Receivables and other Purchased Assets, are sold by BANA and purchased by BACCS on the date on which those Principal Receivables arise.


(d)  BANA shall (i) record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and amendments with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Conveyed Assets meeting the requirements of applicable law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the Conveyance of such Conveyed Assets from BANA, as successor by merger to FIA, to BACCS, (ii) cause such financing statements and amendments to name BANA, as debtor, and BACCS, as secured party, of the Conveyed Assets, and (iii) deliver a file‐stamped copy of such financing statements or amendments or other evidence of such filings to BACCS as soon as is practicable after filing.


(e)  The parties hereto intend that the Conveyance of BANA's right, title and interest in and to the Conveyed Assets shall constitute an absolute contribution and sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others, from BANA, as successor by merger to FIA, to BACCS.  It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Conveyed Assets shall constitute a contribution, purchase and sale of such Conveyed Assets and not a loan, including under generally accepted accounting principles in effect before November 15, 2009.  In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a contribution, purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that BANA shall be deemed to have granted, and does hereby grant to BACCS a first priority perfected security interest in all of BANA's right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Conveyed Assets to secure the obligations of BANA hereunder.


(f)  On or prior to the Merger Date, BANA shall mark its books, records, and computer files to make clear that the Receivables arising in the Initial Accounts and each Additional Account with an Addition Date prior to the Merger Date and the related Conveyed Assets have been contributed and sold to BACCS under this Agreement.  On or prior to each Addition Date following the Merger Date, BANA shall mark its books, records, and computer 



-9-







files to make clear that the Receivables arising in the related Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets have been sold to BACCS under this Agreement and, in connection with such marking, shall also identify such Additional Accounts in the Pool Index File with either the designation "1994-MT" or the designation "NONSOLD."  BANA may change the designation identifying any Account in the Pool Index File from "NONSOLD" to "1994-MT" at any time without any further action.  However, except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, BANA shall not change any of these markings or the identification of any Account in the Pool Index File unless and until (i) that Account has become an Excluded Account, (ii) that Account is sold as permitted by subsection 5.01(l), or (iii) BANA has taken all actions that are necessary or appropriate to maintain the perfection and the priority of BACCS's ownership interest in the related Conveyed Assets.  All acts required of BANA in this paragraph must be taken at BANA's own expense.


(g)  On the Closing Date, FIA delivered to BACCS the initial Account Schedule.  On or prior to the tenth Business Day in each Monthly Period, BANA will give BACCS written notice of the Addition Date applicable to the Additional Accounts with respect to the prior Monthly Period, if any, the Receivables of which are being sold to BACCS on such Addition Date.  Promptly after a request from BACCS, and at least once every two months regardless of whether a request is made by BACCS, BANA must deliver to BACCS an updated Account Schedule that identifies all Accounts (including Additional Accounts).  All acts required of BANA in this paragraph must be taken at BANA's own expense.


(h)  BANA is transferring each Securitized Asset to BACCS in connection with a securitization.


Section 2.02.  Additional Excluded Accounts.  (a) From time to time, the parties hereto may agree to exclude the Receivables in certain Accounts from the effect of this Agreement.  In accordance therewith, the parties hereto shall identify such accounts, by account number, by pool index file, or by such other identifying feature as to which the parties may agree, the newly created Receivables of which shall be excluded from the effect of this Agreement.  Such identification shall be on Schedule 2 hereto and, from the date of such modification of Schedule 2, such accounts shall be Excluded Accounts as defined herein.  To the extent that any Account is also an Account (as such term is defined in the BACCS/Funding RPA), the parties agree not to identify such Account as an Excluded Account until such time as such Account becomes a Removed Account (as such term is defined in the BACCS/Funding RPA).  On, or promptly following the date on which an Account becomes an Excluded Account pursuant to this subsection 2.02(a), BANA shall deliver to BACCS an updated Additional Excluded Account Schedule which shall be attached hereto as Schedule 2.


(b)  From time to time, the parties hereto may agree to include the Receivables in certain previously Excluded Accounts within the effect of this Agreement by removing the account number of such previously Excluded Accounts, the Receivables of which are to be included, from Schedule 2 hereto and BANA shall promptly deliver such modified Schedule 2 to BACCS.  From the Addition Date immediately following the date of such delivery of such modified Schedule 2 to BACCS, such previously Excluded Accounts shall be Accounts as defined herein.

Section 2.03.  Servicing.


(a)  BANA shall be responsible for servicing the Accounts and Receivables.  Servicing of the Accounts and Receivables shall be in accordance with that certain Cross Services Agreement dated as of October 20, 2006 by and among certain affiliates of Bank of America Corporation (as amended, restated, and supplemented from time to time, the "Cross Services Agreement").


(b)  Upon BACCS's reasonable request, on the tenth Business Day following any Monthly Period, BANA shall deliver to BACCS, a report substantially in the form, and identifying the information, that the parties may from time to time mutually agree.

ARTICLE III


CONSIDERATION, PAYMENT, AND SERVICING FEE


Section 3.01.  Purchase Price.


(a)  The Purchase Price for the Contributed Assets was the issuance of the Membership Interest by BACCS to FIA on the Closing Date.  The Purchase Price for the Receivables arising in any Account (including the Receivables existing in any Additional Account on the applicable Addition Cut Off Date or arising in any Additional Account thereafter) and the related Purchased Assets sold to BACCS under this Agreement after the date hereof, (i) shall be payable in cash on a date (the "Payment Date") mutually agreed to by BANA and BACCS, but no later than the tenth Business Day following the Monthly Period in which such Receivables and related Purchased Assets are conveyed by BANA to BACCS and (ii) shall be an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of the Receivables existing on such date and so conveyed, as such amount shall be adjusted on such Payment Date to reflect such factors as BANA and BACCS mutually agree will result in a Purchase Price determined to be the fair market value of such Principal Receivables and related Purchased Assets on such Payment Date.  The computation of each Purchase Price shall assume no purchase of additional Receivables or related Purchased Assets.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that BACCS may, but shall not be obligated to, draw on the credit available pursuant to a Revolving Credit Note, dated as of March 1, 2005 between BANA (successor by merger to FIA) and BACCS in order to fund the payment of the related Purchase Price on any Payment Date.


(b)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, BANA shall not be obligated to continue to transfer or deliver Purchased Assets to BACCS to the extent that BANA is not paid the Purchase Price therefor as provided herein.


Section 3.02.  Adjustments to Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price shall be reduced on the Payment Date (a "Purchase Price Adjustment") with respect to any Receivable previously conveyed to BACCS by BANA if such Receivable is reduced by BANA because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized charge, or billing error to the Obligors.  The amount of such reduction shall equal the reduction in the balance of such Receivable resulting from the occurrence of such event, subject to any adjustment that had been made pursuant to subsection 3.01(a) with respect to the Purchase Price for such Receivable at the time of its conveyance.  In the event that a reduction pursuant to this Section 3.02 causes the Purchase Price to be a negative number, BANA shall pay to BACCS on such Payment Date an amount equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds the unadjusted Purchase Price.


Section 3.03.  Use of Name, Logo and Marks.  To the extent of its interest, BANA hereby grants to BACCS a non‐exclusive license to use the name "BANA," "FIA," "Bank of America," and all related identifying trade or service marks, signs, symbols, logos, and designs but only for use in servicing the Receivables and only for use in a manner that is consistent with the guidelines provided by BANA to BACCS from time to time.  Further, to the

ARTICLE V


COVENANTS


Section 5.01.  Covenants of BANA.  BANA hereby covenants and agrees with BACCS as follows:


(a)  Limitation on Actions.  Except in enforcing or collecting an Account, BANA will take no action that results in any Receivable not being an account under Article 9 of the Delaware UCC, and therefore, BANA will take no action that results in any Receivable being an instrument or chattel paper under Article 9 of the Delaware UCC.


(b)  Security Interests.  Except for the conveyances effected hereby or permitted hereunder, BANA will not sell, pledge, assign, or transfer to any other Person, or take any other action inconsistent with BACCS's ownership of, the Conveyed Assets, or grant, create, incur, assume, or suffer to exist any Lien (arising through or under BANA) on any Conveyed Asset or any interest therein, and BANA shall not claim any ownership interest in any Conveyed Asset and shall defend the right, title, and interest of BACCS in, to, and under the Conveyed Assets against all claims of third parties claiming through or under BANA.


(c)  Account Allocations.  In the event that BANA is unable for any reason to transfer Conveyed Assets to BACCS in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including by reason of the application of the provisions of Section 7.02 or any order of any Governmental Authority), BANA agrees (except as prohibited by any such order or any Requirement of Law) to allocate and pay to BACCS, after the date of such inability, all Collections and other amounts in respect of the Conveyed Assets previously transferred to BACCS pursuant to either the Original Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement or this Agreement.  To the extent that it is not clear to BANA whether collections relate to a Principal Receivable that was contributed or sold to BACCS or to a principal receivable that was not able to be contributed or sold to BACCS, BANA shall allocate payments on each Account with respect to the principal balance of such Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Account.  Notwithstanding any cessation of the transfer to BACCS of additional Principal Receivables, Principal Receivables contributed or sold to BACCS prior to the occurrence of the event giving rise to such inability, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables whenever created that accrue in respect of such Principal Receivables, and Collections in respect of such Finance Charge Receivables, shall continue to be property of BACCS.


(d)  Collections.  If BANA receives Collections on any Receivable, BANA promptly will deliver those Collections to BACCS.


(e)  Notice of Liens.  BANA shall notify BACCS promptly after becoming aware of any Lien arising through or under FIA or BANA on any Conveyed Asset other 



-18-







than those arising pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Original Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement or this Agreement.


(f)  Interchange.  Interchange allocable to the Receivables for each Monthly Period shall be remitted by BANA to BACCS no later than the fifteenth Business Day following such Monthly Period.  Such amount of Interchange shall be equal to the product of (i) the total amount of Interchange paid or payable to BANA with respect to its VISA®, MasterCard®, American Express®, or similar consumer revolving credit card accounts during such Monthly Period times (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges for goods and services in the Accounts with respect to such Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges for goods and services in all VISA®, MasterCard® or American Express® consumer revolving credit card accounts owned by BANA with respect to such Monthly Period.


(g)  Documentation of Transfer.  BANA shall timely file in all appropriate filing offices the documents which are necessary or advisable to perfect and maintain the perfection of BACCS's interest in the Conveyed Assets.


(h)  Periodic Finance Charges.  Except (i) as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law or (ii) as is deemed by BANA to be necessary in order for it to maintain its consumer credit card business or a program operated by such consumer credit card business on a competitive basis based on a good faith assessment by it of the nature of the competition in the consumer credit card business or such program, BANA shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the Periodic Finance Charges assessed on the Receivables or other fees charged on any of the Accounts if, such reduction is not also applied to any comparable segment of accounts owned by BANA which have characteristics the same as, or substantially similar to, such Accounts that are subject to such change, except as otherwise restricted by an endorsement, sponsorship, or other agreement between BANA and an unrelated third party or by the terms of the Credit Card Agreements.


(i)  Credit Card Agreements and Credit Card Guidelines.  BANA shall comply with and perform its obligations under the Credit Card Agreements relating to the Accounts and the Credit Card Guidelines except insofar as any failure so to comply or perform would not materially and adversely affect the rights of BACCS, or any of their assigns.  Subject to compliance with each Requirement of Law, BANA may change the terms and provisions of the applicable Credit Card Agreements or the applicable Credit Card Guidelines with respect to any of the Accounts in any respect (including the calculation of the amount, or the timing, of charge‐offs and the Periodic Finance Charges and other fees to be assessed thereon) only if in the reasonable judgment of BANA such change is made applicable to any comparable segment of the revolving credit card accounts owned by BANA which have characteristics the same as, or substantially similar to, such Accounts that are subject to such change, except as otherwise restricted by an endorsement, sponsorship, or other agreement between BANA and an unrelated third party or by the terms of the Credit Card Agreements.


(j)  Annual Opinion.  On March 31 in each calendar year, beginning March 31, 2015, BANA will deliver to BACCS an opinion of counsel (i) stating that no further 



-19-







filing of any financing statement, amendment of financing statement, or continuation statement is then necessary to perfect BACCS's ownership interest in the Receivables, and (ii) stating that no further filing of any financing statement, amendment of financing statement, or continuation statement will be necessary prior to March 31 of the next calendar year to maintain the perfection of BACCS's ownership interest in the Receivables or, if that is not the case, identifying each filing that will be necessary prior to March 31 of that calendar year.


(k)  Name and Type and Jurisdiction of Organization.  BANA shall not change its name or its type or jurisdiction of organization without previously having delivered to BACCS evidence, satisfactory to BACCS, to the effect that all actions have been taken, and all filings have been made, as are necessary to continue and maintain the first priority perfected ownership interest of BACCS in the Conveyed Assets.


(l)  Conveyance of Accounts.  BANA shall not convey, assign, exchange or otherwise transfer any of the Accounts to any Person prior to the termination of this Agreement without the prior consent of BACCS; provided, that BANA shall not convey, assign, exchange or otherwise transfer any Account that is also an Account (as such term is defined in the BACCS/Funding RPA), until such time as such Account becomes a Removed Account (as such term is defined in the BACCS/Funding RPA) or a Defaulted Account (as such term is defined in the BACCS/Funding RPA).
