In the event that the Seller becomes a Certificate Owner or Investor Certificateholder, the Seller may cancel such Investor Certificates (or interests therein) on any date by providing notice to the Trustee of such cancellation; provided, however, that no Investor Certificates (or interests therein), except those (generally designated as Class A) senior to all other Classes of a particular Series, may be cancelled unless the Seller shall have been advised by the Rating Agencies that such cancellation would not cause a Ratings Event; provided further, that if such cancellation shall occur on or after the last day of any calendar month but prior to the Distribution Date in the
immediately following calendar month, such cancelled Investor Certificates (or interests therein) shall be deemed to continue to accrue interest at the rate applicable to such Investor Certificates (or interests therein) until such immediately following Distribution Date; provided further, however, that any interest that has accrued or shall be deemed to accrue on any Investor Certificates (or interests therein) that are cancelled hereunder shall be paid to, or at the direction of, the Seller, on the Distribution Date immediately following such cancellation.

Simultaneously with any such cancellation provided for in this Section 6.16, the
Class Initial Investor Interest of the applicable Class, the Series Initial Investor Interest of the Series under which such Investor

(a)          The Seller may, at its option, be discharged from its obligations hereunder with respect to any Series or all outstanding Series (the “Defeased Series”), as applicable, on the date the applicable conditions set forth in Section 12.04(c) are satisfied (each a “Defeasance”); provided, however, that the following rights, obligations, powers, duties and immunities shall survive with respect to the Defeased Series until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:  (i) the rights of Holders of Investor Certificates of the Defeased Series to receive, solely from the trust fund provided for in Section 12.04(c), payments in respect of
principal of and interest on such Investor Certificates when such payments are scheduled to be made; (ii) the Seller’s obligations with respect to such Certificates under Sections 6.06(a) and (c) and 6.08; (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Transfer Agent hereunder, including the obligations of the Seller to indemnify the Trustee under Section 7.04 and of the Servicer to pay the Trustee’s fees and expenses under Section 11.05; and (iv) this Section 12.04.  Following any Defeasance, for the purpose of calculating the Minimum Principal Receivables Balance, the Series Minimum Principal Receivables Balance for each such Defeased Series shall equal zero.

(b)          Subject to Section 12.04(c), the Seller at its option may cause Collections allocated to the Defeased Series and available to acquire additional Receivables to be applied to acquire Permitted Investments rather than additional Receivables.

(c)          The following shall be the conditions to each Defeasance under Section 12.04(a): (i) the Seller irrevocably shall have either (A) deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for making the payments described below, (1) U.S. dollars in an amount, or (2) Permitted Investments which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof will provide, not later than the due date of payment thereon, money in an amount, or (3) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient to pay and discharge, and, which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, all remaining scheduled interest and principal payments on all outstanding Investor
Certificates of the Defeased Series on the dates scheduled for such payments in this Agreement and the applicable Supplements or (B) 

 

	
             
 	
            2
 

 

 

taken such other action to provide for the payment and discharge of all remaining scheduled interest and principal payments on all outstanding Investor Certificates of the Defeased Series on the dates scheduled for such payments in this Agreement and the applicable Supplements as each Rating Agency with respect to such Series has confirmed in writing will not cause a Ratings Event; (ii) prior to its first exercise of its right pursuant to this Section 12.04 with respect to a Defeased Series to substitute money, Permitted Investments or other assets for Receivables, the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee (A) an Opinion of Counsel with respect to such deposit and termination to the effect that it will not cause the Trust or any portion thereof to be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation and (B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit and
termination of obligations will not result in the Trust being required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act; (iii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller stating that the Seller reasonably believes that such deposit and termination of obligations will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such certification, adversely affect in any material respect the Holders of any Class with respect to the Defeased Series; and (iv) the Seller shall have received written notice from each Rating Agency that such Defeasance will not cause a Ratings Event and shall have delivered copies of each such written notice to the Servicer and the Trustee.

(d)          On or after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 12.04(c) are satisfied with respect to any Defeased Series, the Trustee shall, at the request and expense of the Seller, execute and deliver such termination statements, reassignments and such other instruments of satisfaction and discharge as may be necessary, and pay, assign, transfer and deliver to or at the direction of the Seller, all assets in any Investor Account relating to such Defeased Series, cash, securities and other property then held by it, in each case for the sole benefit of the Certificateholders of such Defeased Series, under this Agreement (other than any property held by it specifically in satisfaction of any condition in this Section 12.04 with respect to any Defeased Series).

	
             
 	
            IV.
 	
            Effectiveness.
 

This Amendment shall become effective as of October 24, 2005, upon receipt by the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee of the following, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to such party:

(a)          an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer delivered pursuant to Section 13.01(b) of the Agreement indicating that the conditions precedent to this Amendment have been met; and

(b)          counterparts of this Amendment duly executed by the parties hereto.

	
             
 	
            V.
 	
            Miscellaneous.
 

Counterparts.  This Amendment 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 shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

 

 

	
             
 	
            3
 

 

 

 

Governing Law.  This Amendment shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.
