(y) 2.0% per annum and (iii) such Class A Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class A Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class A Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class A Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class A Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

(b) The amount of monthly interest (“Class B Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the
Class B Notes on any Payment Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the
first Payment Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the Class B Note Interest Rate then in effect for the related Interest Period and (iii) the Outstanding Dollar Principal
Amount of the Class B Notes as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date. 
 On the Note Transfer Date preceding
each Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the “Class B Interest Shortfall”), of (x) the Class B Monthly Interest for such Payment Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds
allocated and available to pay such Class B Monthly Interest on such Payment Date. If the Class B Interest Shortfall with respect to any Payment Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Payment Date until such Class B Interest Shortfall is
fully paid, an additional amount (“Class B Additional Interest”) equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from and including the immediately
preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the sum of (x) the Class B Note Interest Rate in effect for the related
Interest Period and (y) 2.0% per annum and (iii) such Class B Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class B Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class B Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class B Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class B Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

  
 23 

 (c) The amount of monthly interest (“Class C Monthly Interest”) distributable
from the Collection Account with respect to the Class C Notes on any Payment Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from and including the immediately
preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the Class C Note Interest Rate then in effect for the related Interest Period and
(iii) the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C Notes as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date; provided, however, that in the event the Class C Note Interest Rate has been modified (as
described in the definition thereof) during the period from and including the preceding Payment Date to but excluding such Payment Date, the rate described in (ii) above shall reflect a weighted average rate calculated on the basis of the
actual number of days each Class C Note Interest Rate was in effect during such period and a year of 360 days. 
 On the Note Transfer Date
preceding each Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the “Class C Interest Shortfall”), of (x) the aggregate Class C Monthly Interest for such Payment Date over (y) the aggregate amount of
funds allocated and available to pay such Class C Monthly Interest on such Payment Date. If the Class C Interest Shortfall with respect to any Payment Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Payment Date until such Class C Interest Shortfall
is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class C Additional Interest”) equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from and including the immediately
preceding Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Payment Date, the Closing Date) to but excluding such Payment Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the sum of (x) the Class C Note Interest Rate in effect for the related
Interest Period and (y) 2.0% per annum and (iii) such Class C Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class C Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class C Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class C Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to Class C Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Account with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes on each Payment Date (the “Monthly Principal”), shall be equal to (a) during the Revolving Period, zero and (b) beginning with the Payment Date in the month following the
month in which the Controlled Accumulation Period or, if earlier, the Early Amortization Period, begins, the least of (i) the Series 2013-2 Available Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such Payment Date,
(ii) for each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Payment Date and (iii) the Nominal Liquidation Amount for such Payment Date (after taking into account any adjustments to
be made on such Payment Date pursuant to Sections 4.05, 4.08 and 4.09).

 24 

 (b) Series 2013-2 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections with respect to any Payment Date shall

that if the amount of Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections for such Payment Date is less than the sum of (w) Reallocation Group A Interest, (x) Reallocation Group A Default Amount, (y) Reallocation Group A Fees and
(z) Reallocation Group A Additional Amounts, then Series 2013-2 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections shall equal the sum of the following amounts for such Payment Date: 
  

	 	(A)	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections and (2) Reallocation Group A Interest and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series 2013-2 Monthly
Interest and the denominator of which is Reallocation Group A Interest; 

  

	 	(B)	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Reallocation Group A Interest and (2) the Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (II) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Series 2013-2 Default Amount and the denominator of which is the Reallocation Group A Default Amount; 

  

	 	(C)	the product of (I) the lesser of (1) Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Reallocation Group A Interest and the Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (2) Reallocation Group
A Fees and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is Series 2013-2 Fees and the denominator of which is Reallocation Group A Fees; and 

  

	 	(D)	the product of (I) Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections less the sum of (1) Reallocation Group A Interest, (2) the Reallocation Group A Default Amount and (3) Reallocation Group A Fees and

(c) If the amount of Reallocation Group A Finance Charge Collections for any Payment Date exceeds the sum of (i) Reallocation Group A
Interest, (ii) the Reallocation Group A Default Amount, (iii) Reallocation Group A Fees and (iv) Reallocation Group A Additional Amounts, then Series 2013-2 Reallocated Finance Charge Collections for such Payment Date shall include an
amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such excess and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the last day of the second preceding Monthly Period (or, with respect to the first Payment
Date, as of the Closing Date) and the denominator of which is the sum of such Nominal Liquidation Amount and the aggregate nominal liquidation amounts for all other Series included in Reallocation Group A as of such last day (or, for Series 2013-2,
with respect to the first Payment Date, as of the Closing Date).

 (h) to make the targeted deposit to the
Class C Reserve Account, if any, pursuant to Section 4.13; 
 (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with
respect to Series 2013-2 and acceleration of the maturity of the Series 2013-2 Notes pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the balance, if any, up to the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount, less the amount of Series

Principal Funding Account pursuant to subsection 4.06(b)(i). 
 Section 4.07 Principal Funding Account; Controlled
Accumulation Period. 
 (a) (i) The Issuer shall cause to be established and maintained, in the name of the Indenture
Trustee, an Eligible Deposit Account (the “Principal Funding Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders. The
Principal Funding Account shall be held by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture. 

(ii) At the written direction of the Servicer (or its agent appointed pursuant to subsection 4.14(b)), funds on deposit in the
Principal Funding Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer (or its agent appointed pursuant to subsection 4.14(b)). All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Indenture Trustee for
the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders; provided that on each Payment Date, all interest and other investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) (“Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds”) on funds on
deposit therein shall be applied as set forth in paragraph (iii) below. Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments that shall mature so that such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or
prior to the following Note Transfer Date. Unless the Servicer directs otherwise, funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account on a Note Transfer Date (which immediately precedes a Payment Date) upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments are
not required to be invested overnight. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of

  
 28 

 
any such Eligible Investment if, 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; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 8.01 of the Indenture,
the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Principal Funding Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture
Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. 

(iii) On each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee
in writing to withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit into the Collection Account all Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds then on deposit in the Principal Funding Account and such Principal Funding Account Investment
Proceeds shall be treated as a portion of Series 2013-2 Available Finance Charge Collections. 
 (iv) Reinvested interest and
other investment income on funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account shall not be considered to be principal amounts on deposit therein for purposes of this Indenture Supplement. 

(b) (i) The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and property from time to time credited
to the Principal Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Principal Funding Account shall be under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding
Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within ten Business Days (or such longer period, so long as the Note Rating Agency Condition is satisfied) establish a new Principal
Funding Account meeting the conditions specified in paragraph (a)(i) above as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any funds or other property to such new Principal Funding Account. 

(ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in Section 3.1 of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer
shall have the power to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer’s or Indenture Trustee’s duties hereunder. 

(c) The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence at the close of business on the last day of the June 2018 Monthly Period;
provided, however, that if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) is less than two months, then the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences may, at the option of the
Transferor, be delayed to the close of business on the last day of the July 2018 Monthly Period and, as a result, the number of Monthly Periods in the Controlled Accumulation Period will equal one. On the Note Transfer Date immediately preceding the
June 2018 Payment Date, the Servicer shall determine the “Controlled Accumulation Period Length,” which shall equal the number of months not less than the number of whole calendar months reasonably expected by the Servicer to be
necessary to accumulate from Series 2013-2 Available Principal 

  
 29 

 
Collections and Shared Excess Available Principal Collections expected to be available to Series 2013-2 from other Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Series during the Controlled
Accumulation Period an amount equal to the Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall not be determined to be less than one month. 

Section 4.08 Investor Charge-Offs. On each Note Transfer Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Series 2013-2 Default Amount, if
any, for the related Payment Date. If, on any Payment Date, the Series 2013-2 Default Amount for the related Monthly Period exceeds the sum of (i) the amount available therefor pursuant to subsection 4.05(e) with respect to such Monthly
Period and (ii) the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to the related Monthly Period applied in accordance with subsection 4.05(e) pursuant to Section 4.09, the Nominal Liquidation Amount will be reduced
by the amount of such excess, but not by more than the Series 2013-2 Default Amount for such Payment Date (such reduction, an “Investor Charge-Off”). 

Section 4.09 Reallocated Principal Collections. On each Payment Date, the Servicer shall apply, to the extent permitted herein, or
shall cause the Indenture Trustee to apply, by written instruction to the Indenture Trustee, Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to such Payment Date, in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the product of (i) the Series 2013-2
Principal Allocation Percentage and (ii) Principal Collections with respect to the related Monthly Period and (b) the Monthly Subordination Amount for the preceding Monthly Period in accordance with the priority set forth in subsections
4.05(a), (b), (d) and (e). On each Payment Date, the Nominal Liquidation Amount shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections for such Payment Date. 

Section 4.10 Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections. 

(a) Series 2013-2 shall be included in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A for the purpose of sharing Shared Excess
Available Finance Charge Collections. 
 (b) Unless otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of Section 4.12 of the Indenture,
Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections with respect to any Monthly Period shall be shared within Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A to cover the applicable Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfalls
for such Monthly Period, if any, and applied on the Note Transfer Date in the immediately succeeding Monthly Period for each Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group Series with a Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall
for such Monthly Period. Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 2013-2 with respect to each Monthly Period shall mean an amount equal to the Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall, if any, with respect
to Series 2013-2 for such Monthly Period; provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A for each
Monthly Period is less than the Aggregate Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period, then Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 2013-2 with respect to such Monthly Period shall
equal the product of (i) Shared Excess Available 

  
 30 

 
Finance Charge Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections Group A for such Monthly Period and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series
Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall with respect to Series 2013-2 for such Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Series Available Finance Charge Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period. 

(c) To the extent that Shared Excess Available Finance Charge Collections exceed the Aggregate Series Available Finance Charge Collections
Shortfall, such excess shall be paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest. 
 Section 4.11 Shared Excess Available Principal
Collections. 
 (a) Series 2013-2 shall be included in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for the purpose of sharing
Shared Excess Available Principal Collections. 
 (b) Unless otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of Section 4.12 of the
Indenture, Shared Excess Available Principal Collections with respect to any Monthly Period shall be shared within Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A to cover the applicable Series Available Principal Collections Shortfalls for
such Monthly Period, if any, and applied on the Note Transfer Date in the immediately succeeding Monthly Period for each Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Series with a Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for such Monthly
Period. Shared Excess Available Principal Collections allocable to Series 2013-2 with respect to each Monthly Period shall mean an amount equal to the Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall, if any, with respect to Series 2013-2 for such
Monthly Period; provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of Shared Excess Available Principal Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for each Monthly Period is less than the Aggregate
Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period, then Shared Excess Available Principal Collections allocable to Series 2013-2 with respect to such Monthly Period shall equal the product of (i) Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections for all Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for such Monthly Period and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall with respect to Series
2013-2 for such Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Series Available Principal Collections Shortfall for such Monthly Period. 

(c) Unless otherwise specified in the Indenture Supplement for any other Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A, any
Shared Excess Available Principal Collections for each Series in Shared Excess Available Principal Collections Group A for any Monthly Period which shall remain after application pursuant to clause (b) above shall be treated as part of the
Reinvestment Amount for the Note Transfer Date in the next succeeding Monthly Period. Shared Excess Available Principal Collections will not be available for application by other Series of Notes that are not included in Shared Excess Available
Principal Collections Group A.

 Section 4.12 Accumulation Reserve Account. 

(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee an Eligible Deposit Account (the “Accumulation
Reserve Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders. The Accumulation Reserve Account shall be held by the Indenture Trustee
in accordance with subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and property from time to time credited to the Accumulation Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof.
The Accumulation Reserve Account shall be under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2013-2 Noteholders. If at any time the Accumulation Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Transferor
shall notify the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified in writing of such ineligibility (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within 30 calendar days (or such longer period, not to exceed 45 calendar days, so long as the
Note Rating Agency Condition is satisfied) establish a new Accumulation Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any funds or other property to such new Accumulation Reserve Account.
The Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Accumulation Reserve Account from time to time in an amount up to the Available Accumulation Reserve Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set
forth in this Indenture Supplement, and (ii) on each Payment Date (from and after the Accumulation Reserve Account Funding Date) prior to the termination of the Accumulation Reserve Account make a deposit into the Accumulation Reserve Account
in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with, subsection 4.05(g). 
 (b) Funds on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve
Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Servicer (or its agent appointed pursuant to subsection 4.14(b)) in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account on any Note Transfer
Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Accumulation Reserve Account on such Note Transfer Date, shall be invested in such investments that shall mature so that such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following
Note Transfer Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment if, 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; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the
Indenture Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 8.01 of the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Accumulation Reserve
Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial
capacity, in accordance with their terms. On each Payment Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding Payment Date on funds on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be retained in
the Accumulation Reserve Account (to the extent that the Available Accumulation Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required Accumulation Reserve Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited in the Collection Account and treated
as Series 2013-2 Available Finance Charge Collections. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Accumulation Reserve Account for any reason 

  
 32 

 
under this Indenture Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit. 

(c) On the Note Transfer Date preceding each Payment Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period and on or before the first
Payment Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, the Servicer shall calculate the “Accumulation Reserve Draw Amount” which shall be equal to the excess, if any, of the Covered Amount with respect to such Payment Date over
the Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds with respect to such Payment Date; provided that such amount shall be reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available for deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account under
subsection 4.05(g) with respect to such Payment Date. 
 (d) In the event that for any Payment Date the Accumulation Reserve Draw
Amount is greater than zero, the Accumulation Reserve Draw Amount, up to the Available Accumulation Reserve Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Accumulation Reserve Account on the related Note Transfer Date by the Indenture Trustee (acting
in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer) and deposited into the Collection Account for application as Series 2013-2 Available Finance Charge Collections for such Payment Date. 

(e) In the event that the Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus on any Payment Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals
from the Accumulation Reserve Account with respect to such Payment Date, is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer) shall withdraw from the Accumulation Reserve Account, and pay to the
Owner Trustee for distribution in accordance with the Trust Agreement an amount equal to such Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus. 
 (f)
Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the day on which the Nominal Liquidation Amount is reduced to zero, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes and acceleration of such Series 2013-2 Notes pursuant
to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, (iii) the first Payment Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, (iv) the Expected Final Payment Date and (v) the termination of the Trust pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the
Indenture Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer) after the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 2013-2 Noteholders which are payable from the Accumulation Reserve Account as provided herein, shall withdraw
from the Accumulation Reserve Account and pay to the holders of the Transferor Interest all amounts, if any, on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account and the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be deemed to have terminated for purposes of this
Indenture Supplement. 
 (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes and
acceleration of such Series 2013-2 Notes, any Accumulation Reserve Account Surplus or other amounts on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Account shall be applied toward payment of any amounts owing with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes before
such amounts are paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest. 

  
 33 

 Section 4.13 Class C Reserve Account. 

(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee an Eligible Deposit Account (the “Class C Reserve
Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds and other property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders. The Class C Reserve Account shall be held by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with
subsection 5.03(c) of the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and property from time to time credited to the Class C Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Class C Reserve
Account shall be under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders. If at any time the Class C Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Transferor shall notify the Indenture Trustee,
and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified in writing of such ineligibility (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within 30 calendar days (or such longer period, not to exceed 45 calendar days, so long as the Note Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied) establish a new Class C Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any funds or other property to such new Class C Reserve Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the direction of
the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Class C Reserve Account from time to time in an amount up to the Available Class C Reserve Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set forth in this Indenture Supplement, and
(ii) make deposits to the Class C Reserve Account from time to time in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with, subsection 4.05(h). 

(b) Funds on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Servicer (or
its agent appointed pursuant to subsection 4.14(b)) in Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account on any Note Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Class C Reserve Account on such Note Transfer
Date, shall be invested in such investments that shall mature so that such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Note Transfer Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity;
provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment if, 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; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to
Section 8.01 of the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Class C Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses
attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. On each Payment Date, all interest and earnings (net of
losses and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding Payment Date on funds on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account shall be retained in the Class C Reserve Account (to the extent that the Available Class C Reserve Account Amount is less
than the Required Class C Reserve Account Amount) and, to the extent the Series 2013-2 Notes have not been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, the balance, if any, shall be paid to the holders of the Transferor
Interest. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Class C Reserve Account for any reason under this Indenture Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on such funds
shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit. 

  
 34 

 (c) The amount targeted to be on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account for any Payment Date will
be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Class C Reserve Account Percentage for the related Monthly Period and (ii) the Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that if an Early Amortization Event or Event of
Default occurs with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes, the amount targeted to be on deposit will be the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C Notes. 

(d) After the Class C Reserve Account Percentage has been increased to a percentage above 0% pursuant to any of clauses (ii) through
(vi) of the definition thereof or pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof, the Class C Reserve Account Percentage shall remain at that percentage until (A) further increased to a higher required percentage specified in clauses
(iii) through (vi) of the definition thereof or in the proviso in the definition thereof or (B) the Payment Date on which the Quarterly Excess Spread Percentage has increased to a level above that for the then current Class C Reserve
Account Percentage or the Quarterly Principal Payment Rate is greater than 60%, in which case the Class C Reserve Account Percentage shall be decreased to the appropriate percentage in clauses (i) through (v) of the definition thereof or
in the proviso in the definition thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Early Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, or an Event of Default with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes has occurred and is continuing, the Class C
Reserve Account Percentage shall no longer be subject to reduction. 
 (e) With respect to any Payment Date, if the amount distributable
pursuant to subsection 4.05(c) exceeds the amount available therefor pursuant to subsection 4.05(c), an amount equal to that deficiency will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and applied in accordance with subsection
4.05(c). 
 (f) If, on and after the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which Collateral is sold following an Event of Default
with respect to the Series 2013-2 Notes and acceleration of such Series 2013-2 Notes pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Indenture, (ii) any date on or after the Expected Final Payment Date on which the amount on deposit in the
Principal Funding Account (to the extent such amount exceeds the sum of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes) plus the aggregate amount on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account with respect
to the Class C Notes equal or exceeds the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C Notes and (iii) the Legal Maturity Date, the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account is insufficient to pay in full the amounts for which
withdrawals are required pursuant to Section 4.06, an amount equal to that deficiency will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and deposited into the Principal Funding Account to pay principal of the Class C Notes. 

(g) If on any Payment Date with respect to which the Series 2013-2 Notes have not been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 of the
Indenture, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit in the Class C Reserve Account, the amount of such excess will be withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and paid to the
holders of the Transferor Interest; provided that, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Section 4.13, if an Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to Series 2013-2 and the maturity of the Series 2013-2
Notes shall have been accelerated under Section 7.02 of the Indenture, upon the earlier to occur of (1) the 

  
 35 

 
payment in full of all principal and interest owing to the Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders and (2) the Legal Maturity Date, any amounts remaining on deposit in the Class
C Reserve Account shall be applied to pay all amounts due and payable on the Class C Notes first, and then, to the extent any funds are remaining, shall be applied to pay all amounts due and payable on the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes,
if any, in that order, each as provided in Section 7.02 of the Indenture. 
 (h) No Transferor shall sell, transfer or assign
any interest in the Class C Reserve Account without (x) the delivery to the Indenture Trustee of an Issuer Tax Opinion and any applicable Master Trust Tax Opinion and (y) providing prior written notice to the Note Rating Agencies of such
assignment. 
 Section 4.14 Investment Instructions. 

(a) Any investment instructions required to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Indenture
Trustee no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture
Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment on the date specified in such investment instruction. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives an investment instruction later than the time required by the first sentence of this
paragraph (a), and the Indenture Trustee is unable to make the applicable investment on the date specified in the such investment instruction, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event
shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date such investment is to be made. 

(b) With respect to investments made by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof, the Servicer may appoint as its agent under a
separate agreement a registered investment advisor and authorize such agent to give instructions on behalf of the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee for funds to be invested and reinvested in one or more Eligible Investments. The Servicer shall
provide the Indenture Trustee with a written direction certifying any such appointment. The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, instructions received from such agent on behalf of the
Servicer. 
 Section 4.15 Determination of LIBOR. 

(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR for the related Interest Period, which shall be the rate for
deposits in United States dollars for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Period) that appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. Upon such determination, the Indenture
Trustee shall notify the Servicer of LIBOR for such LIBOR Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, the rate for the LIBOR Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in
United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Period). The
Servicer shall 

  
 36 

 
request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date
shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the
Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Period). If the banks selected by the
Servicer are not quoting rates as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR for such Interest Period shall be LIBOR in effect for the immediately preceding Interest Period. 

(b) The Servicer shall determine, and promptly notify the Transferor and the Indenture Trustee of, the Class A Note Interest Rate, the
Class B Note Interest Rate and the Class C Note Interest for the applicable Interest Period. The Class A Note Interest Rate, the Class B Note Interest Rate and the Class C Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately
preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by any Series 2013-2 Noteholder by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at (212) 815-6258. 

(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Transferor and the
Servicer by facsimile or electronic transmission of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. 
 Section 4.16 Sale of Collateral for
Series 2013-2 Notes That Are Accelerated or Reach Legal Maturity. 
 (a) If the Series 2013-2 Notes have been accelerated pursuant to
Section 7.02 of the Indenture following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction of the Holders of not less than
66  2⁄3% of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Series 2013-2 Notes will, sell Collateral (or interests therein) in an amount (as determined by
the Issuer and provided to the Indenture Trustee) not to exceed the sum of (i) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the close of business on the day preceding such sale and (ii) the product of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of
the close of business on the day preceding such sale and (B) the Discount Option Percentage. 
 (b) Such a sale will be permitted only
if at least one of the following conditions is met: 
 (i) the Holders of more than 90% of the aggregate Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount of the Series 2013-2 Notes consent; or 
 (ii) the net proceeds of such sale (plus amounts on deposit
in the Issuer Accounts) would be sufficient to pay all amounts due on the Series 2013-2 Notes; or 
 (iii) the Indenture
Trustee in consultation with the Servicer determines that the funds to be allocated to the Series 2013-2 Notes, including (1) Series 2013-2 Available Finance Charge Collections and Series 2013-2 Available Principal Collections and
(2) amounts on deposit in the Issuer Accounts, may not 

  
 37 

 
be sufficient on an ongoing basis to make all payments on the Series 2013-2 Notes as such payments would have become due if such obligations had not been declared due and payable, and Series
2013-2 Noteholders evidencing not less than 66  2⁄3% of the aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Series 2013-2 Notes consent to the sale;
provided that the Issuer will provide the Indenture Trustee with the information reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee to make such determination. 

(c) If the Nominal Liquidation Amount is greater than zero on the Legal Maturity Date (after giving effect to any allocations, deposits and
payments otherwise to be made on that Legal Maturity Date), the Indenture Trustee shall, no later than seven Business Days following the Legal Maturity Date, sell or cause to be sold Collateral (or interests therein) in an amount not to exceed the
sum of (i) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the close of business on the day preceding such sale and (ii) the product of (A) the Nominal Liquidation Amount as of the close of business on the day preceding such sale and
(B) the Discount Option Percentage. 
 (d) Upon the occurrence of such sale, the Nominal Liquidation Amount shall be automatically
reduced to zero and Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections shall no longer be allocated to the Series 2013-2 Notes. Series 2013-2 Noteholders shall receive the proceeds of such sale in an amount not to exceed the Outstanding Dollar
Principal Amount of, plus any Series 2013-2 Monthly Interest due on, such Series 2013-2 Notes. 
 (e) Sale proceeds received with respect to
the Series 2013-2 Notes pursuant to clause (a) or (c) above will be allocated in the following priority: 

first, to the Class A Noteholders, until the Class A Stated Principal Amount and all current and past due
Class A Monthly Interest and Class A Additional Interest has been paid in full; 
 second, to the Class B
Noteholders, until the Class B Stated Principal Amount and all current and past due Class B Monthly Interest and Class B Additional Interest has been paid in full; and 

third, to the Class C Noteholders, until the Class C Stated Principal Amount and all current and past due Class C
Monthly Interest and Class C Additional Interest has been paid in full.

Indenture Trustee or the applicable Noteholders, unless otherwise specified: 
 (i) if the Quarterly Excess Spread Percentage
is less than the Required Excess Spread Percentage; or

Trustee or to the Transferor and the Indenture Trustee by any Series 2013-2 Noteholder; or 
 (v) the failure on the part of
the Transferor to make any payment, transfer or deposit required to be made by it by the terms of the Transfer Agreement on or before the date occurring five (5) Business Days after the date such payment or deposit is required to be made
therein; provided, however, that any such failure caused by a nonwillful act of the Transferor shall not constitute an Early Amortization Event if the Transferor promptly remedies such failure within five (5) Business Days after

 AMERICAN EXPRESS ISSUANCE TRUST II 

CLASS A SERIES 2013-2 FLOATING RATE ASSET BACKED NOTE 

Summary of Terms and Conditions 

This Class A Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its American Express Issuance Trust II, Series
2013-2 (the “Series 2013-2 Notes”), issued under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of March 12, 2013 (as amended and as further amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”),
between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee,” which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by the Indenture Supplement, dated as of
September 24, 2013 (the “Indenture Supplement”), and representing the right to receive certain payments from the Issuer. The term “Indenture,” unless the context otherwise requires, refers to the Indenture as
supplemented by the Indenture Supplement. The Notes are subject to all of the terms of the Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or amended, shall have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant
to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Indenture and this Note, the Indenture shall control. 

The Class B Notes and the Class C Notes will also be issued under the Indenture. 

The Noteholder, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that it will look solely to the property of the Trust allocated to the payment of this
Note in accordance with the Indenture for payment hereunder and that the Indenture Trustee is not liable to the Noteholders for any amount payable under the Note or the Indenture or, except as expressly provided in the Indenture, subject to any
liability under the Indenture. 
 This Note does not purport to summarize the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture for the
interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Indenture Trustee. 

The Expected Final Payment Date is the September 2018 Payment Date, but principal with respect to the Class A Notes may be paid earlier
or later under certain circumstances described in the Indenture. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds to deposit into the Principal Funding Account the Controlled Deposit Amount, then to
the extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Payment Dates with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of the Notes will occur later than the Expected Final
Payment Date. Payments of principal of the Notes shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. 
 Subject to the
terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Transferor may, from time to time, direct the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series, Class or Tranche of Notes or new Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche. 

  
 A-1-5 

 On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class A Noteholder of record
on the related Record Date (except for the final distribution in respect of this Class A Note) such Class A Noteholder’s pro rata share of the amounts held by the Paying Agent that are allocated and available on such Payment
Date to pay interest and principal on the Class A Notes pursuant to the Indenture Supplement. Except as provided in the Indenture with respect to a final distribution, distributions to Series 2013-2 Noteholders shall be made by (i) check
mailed to each Series 2013-2 Noteholder (at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note Register), except that with respect to any Series 2013-2 Notes registered in the name of the nominee of a clearing agency, such distribution shall
be made in immediately available funds and (ii) without presentation or surrender of any Series 2013-2 Note or the making of any notation thereon. Final payment of this Class A Note will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this
Class A Note at the office or agency specified in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the Series 2013-2 Noteholders in accordance with the Indenture. 

On any day occurring on or after the date on which the aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all Outstanding Series of Notes is
reduced to less than 10% of the sum of the highest Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of each such Series at any time, the Transferor (but only if the Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer) shall have the right, but not the
obligation to, redeem all Outstanding Series of Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of each such Series, plus accrued, unpaid and additional interest or principal accreted and unpaid on each such
Series to but excluding the date of redemption; provided, however, that in no event shall such optional redemption occur if 25% or more of the Initial Dollar Principal Amount of any Series of Notes is Outstanding. 

This Class A Note does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferor, American Express Travel Related Services
Company, Inc., American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB, or any Affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. 

Each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time institute against the Issuer, the Transferor or
any Master Trust, or join in instituting against the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law. 
 Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture Supplement, the Class A Notes are issuable only in minimum
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof. The transfer of this Class A Note shall be registered in the Note Register upon surrender of this Class A Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in
a Place of Payment, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Class A Noteholder or such Class A Noteholder’s attorney, and duly authorized in
writing with such signature guaranteed, and thereupon one or more new Class A Notes in any authorized denominations of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms will be issued
to the designated transferee or transferees. 

  
 A-1-6 

 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Class A
Notes are exchangeable for new Class A Notes in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms upon surrender of such Notes to be exchanged at
the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith. 
 The Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee shall
treat the person in whose name this Class A Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
 THIS CLASS A NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK, INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW, 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.

 AMERICAN EXPRESS ISSUANCE TRUST II 

CLASS C SERIES 2013-2 FLOATING RATE ASSET BACKED NOTE 

Summary of Terms and Conditions 

This Class C Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its American Express Issuance Trust II, Series
2013-2 (the “Series 2013-2 Notes”), issued under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of March 12, 2013 (as amended and as further amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”),
between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee,” which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by the Indenture Supplement dated as of
September 24, 2013 (the “Indenture Supplement”), and representing the right to receive certain payments from the Issuer. The term “Indenture,” unless the context otherwise requires, refers to the Indenture as
supplemented by the Indenture Supplement. The Notes are subject to all of the terms of the Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or amended, shall have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant
to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Indenture and this Note, the Indenture shall control. 

The Class A Notes and the Class B Notes will also be issued under the Indenture. 

The Noteholder, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that it will look solely to the property of the Trust allocated to the payment of this
Note in accordance with the Indenture for payment hereunder and that the Indenture Trustee is not liable to the Noteholders for any amount payable under the Note or the Indenture or, except as expressly provided in the Indenture, subject to any
liability under the Indenture. 
 This Note does not purport to summarize the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture for the
interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Indenture Trustee. 

The Expected Final Payment Date is the September 2018 Payment Date, but principal with respect to the Class C Notes may be paid earlier or
later under certain circumstances described in the Indenture. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds to deposit into the Principal Funding Account the Controlled Deposit Amount, then to the
extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Payment Dates with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of the Notes will occur later than the Expected Final Payment
Date. Payments of principal of the Notes shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. 

  
 A-3-5 

 Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Transferor may, from time to time,
direct the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series, Class or Tranche of Notes or new Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche. 

On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class C Noteholder of record on the related Record Date (except for the final
distribution in respect of this Class C Note) such Class C Noteholder’s pro rata share of the amounts held by the Paying Agent that are allocated and available on such Payment Date to pay interest and principal on the Class C Notes
pursuant to the Indenture Supplement. Except as provided in the Indenture with respect to a final distribution, distributions to Series 2013-2 Noteholders shall be made by (i) check mailed to each Series 2013-2 Noteholder (at such
Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note Register), except that with respect to any Series 2013-2 Notes registered in the name of the nominee of a clearing agency, such distribution shall be made in immediately available funds and
(ii) without presentation or surrender of any Series 2013-2 Note or the making of any notation thereon. Final payment of this Class C Note will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class C Note at the office or agency specified
in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the Series 2013-2 Noteholders in accordance with the Indenture. 

On any day occurring on or after the date on which the aggregate Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all Outstanding Series of Notes is
reduced to less than 10% of the sum of the highest Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of each such Series at any time, the Transferor (but only if the Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer) shall have the right, but not the
obligation to, redeem all Outstanding Series of Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of each such Series, plus accrued, unpaid and additional interest or principal accreted and unpaid on each such
Series to but excluding the date of redemption; provided, however, that in no event shall such optional redemption occur if 25% or more of the Initial Dollar Principal Amount of any Series of Notes is Outstanding. 

This Class C Note does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferor, American Express Travel Related Services Company,
Inc., American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB, or any Affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. 

Each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time institute against the Issuer, the Transferor or
any Master Trust, or join in instituting against the Issuer, the Transferor or any Master Trust, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law. 
 Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture Supplement, the Class C Notes are issuable only in minimum
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof. The transfer of this Class C Note shall be registered in the Note Register upon surrender of this Class C Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of
Payment, accompanied by 

  
 A-3-6 

 
a written instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Class C Noteholder or such Class C Noteholder’s attorney, and duly
authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed, and thereupon one or more new Class C Notes in any authorized denominations of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Class C Notes are exchangeable for new Class C Notes in any authorized denominations and of like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Final Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms upon surrender of such Notes to be exchanged at
the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith. 
 The Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee shall
treat the person in whose name this Class C Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected
by notice to the contrary. 
 THIS CLASS C NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW, 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.

If administered by a Committee, such Committee shall be composed of at least two directors, all of whom are “outside directors” within the meaning of the regulations issued under Section 162(m) of the Code and “non-employee” directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Committee members shall serve for such term as the Board may in each case determine and shall be subject to removal at any time by the Board.

 

2.2.   Powers of Committee. The Committee shall have full authority to award, pursuant to the terms of the Plan: (i) Stock Options, (ii) Stock Appreciation Rights, (iii) Restricted Stock, and/or (iv) Other Stock-Based Awards. For purposes of illustration and not of limitation, the Committee shall have the authority (subject to the express provisions of this Plan):

 

(a) to select the officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary to whom Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and/or Other Stock-Based Awards may from time to time be awarded hereunder;

 

(b) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder (including, but not limited to, number of shares, share exercise price or types of consideration paid upon exercise of such options, such as other securities of the Company or other property, any restrictions or limitations, and any vesting, exchange, surrender, cancellation, acceleration, termination, exercise or forfeiture provisions, as the Committee shall determine);

 

(c) to determine any specified performance goals or such other factors or criteria which need to be attained for the vesting of an award granted hereunder;

 

(d) to determine the terms and conditions under which awards granted hereunder are to operate on a tandem basis and/or in conjunction with or apart from other equity awarded under this Plan and cash and non-cash awards made by the Company or any Subsidiary outside of this Plan; and

 

(e) to make payments and distributions with respect to awards (i.e., to “settle” awards) through cash payments in an amount equal to the Repurchase Value.

 

The Committee may not modify or amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right to reduce the exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, below the exercise price as of the date of grant of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right.  In addition, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be granted in exchange for the cancellation or surrender of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other award having a higher exercise price.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Committee shall not grant to any one Holder in any one calendar year awards for more than 408,440 shares in the aggregate.

 

  

3

  

 

2.3.   Interpretation of Plan.

 

(a) Committee Authority. Subject to Section 10, the Committee shall have the authority to adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall from time to time deem advisable to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any award issued under the Plan (and to determine the form and substance of all agreements relating thereto), and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. Subject to Section 10, all decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be made in the Committee’s sole discretion and shall be final and binding upon all persons, including the Company, its Subsidiaries and Holders.

 

(b) Incentive Stock Options. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term or provision of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options (including but not limited to Stock Appreciation rights granted in conjunction with an Incentive Stock Option) or any Agreement providing for Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the Holder(s) affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under such Section 422.

 

Section 3. Stock Subject to Plan.

 

3.1.  Number of Shares. Subject to Section 7.1(d), the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be 2,050,000 shares. Shares of Common Stock under the Plan (“Shares”) may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. If any shares of Common Stock that have been granted pursuant to a Stock Option cease to be subject to a Stock Option, or if any shares of Common Stock that are subject to any Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock award or Other Stock-Based Award granted hereunder are forfeited, or any such award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the Holder in the form of Common Stock, such shares shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and awards under the Plan. Shares of Common Stock that are surrendered by a Holder or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in connection with any award under the Plan, as well as any shares of Common Stock surrendered by a Holder or withheld by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any award under the Plan, shall not be available for subsequent awards under the Plan.

 

3.2.  Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization, Etc. In the event of any common stock dividend payable on shares of Common Stock, Common Stock split or reverse split, combination or exchange of shares of Common Stock, or other extraordinary or unusual event which results in a change in the shares of Common Stock of the Company as a whole, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether such change equitably requires an adjustment in the terms of any award in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits available under the Plan (including number of shares subject to the award and the exercise price) or the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan. Any such adjustments will be made by the Committee, whose determination will be final, binding and conclusive.

Section 4. Eligibility.

 

Awards may be made or granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants who are deemed to have rendered or to be able to render significant services to the Company or its Subsidiaries and who are deemed to have contributed or to have the potential to contribute to the success of the Company and which recipients are qualified to receive options under the regulations governing Form S-8 registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any person who is not an employee of the Company or an employee of a Subsidiary at the time of grant or so qualified as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an award may also be made or granted to a person in connection with his hiring or retention, or at any time on or after the date he reaches an agreement (oral or written) with the Company with respect to such hiring or retention, even though it may be prior to the date the person first performs services for the Company or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no portion of any such award shall vest prior to the date the person first performs such services and the date of grant shall be deemed to be the date hiring or retention commences.

 

Section 5. Stock Options.

 

5.1.   Grant and Exercise. Stock Options granted under the Plan may be of two types: (i) Incentive Stock Options and (ii) Non-qualified Stock Options. Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall contain such terms, not inconsistent with this Plan, or with respect to Incentive Stock Options, not inconsistent with the Plan and the Code, as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options or Non-qualified Stock Options, or both types of Stock Options which may be granted alone or in addition to other awards granted under the Plan. To the extent that any Stock Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option does not so qualify, it shall constitute a separate Non-qualified Stock Option.

 

5.2.   Terms and Conditions. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(a) Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee; provided, however, that an Incentive Stock Option may be granted only within the ten-year period commencing from the Effective Date and may only be exercised within ten years of the date of grant (or five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an optionee who, at the time of grant, owns Common Stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of voting stock of the Company (“10% Shareholder”)).

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchasable under a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant and may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant (or, if greater, the par value of a share of Common Stock); provided, however, that the exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Shareholder will not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.

 

(c) Exercisability. Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee intends generally to provide that Stock Options be exercisable only in installments, i.e., that they vest over time, typically over a three-year period.  The Committee may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time at or after the time of grant in whole or in part, based upon such factors as the Committee determines.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the date of grant of the Option) with respect to which Incentive Stock Options become exercisable for the first time by a Holder during any calendar year (under all such plans of the Company and its Parent and Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000.

 

  

5

  

 

(d) Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment, exercise and waiting period provisions are applicable in a particular case, Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Option by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, which shall be in cash or, if provided in the Agreement, either in shares of Common Stock (including Restricted Stock and other contingent awards under this Plan) or partly in cash and partly in such Common Stock, or such other means which the Committee determines are consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law. Cash payments shall be made by wire transfer, certified or bank check or personal check, in each case payable to the order of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver certificates for shares of Common Stock with respect to which an Option is exercised until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof (except that, in the case of an exercise arrangement approved by the Committee and described in the last sentence of this paragraph, payment may be made as soon as practicable after the exercise).  The Committee may permit a Holder to elect to pay the Exercise Price upon the exercise of a Stock Option by irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell shares of Common Stock (or a sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Stock Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise.

 

(e) Stock Payments. Payments in the form of Common Stock shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. Such payments shall be made by delivery of stock certificates in negotiable form that are effective to transfer good and valid title thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances.

 

(f) Transferability. Except as may be set forth in the next sentence of this Section or in the Agreement, no Stock Option shall be transferable by the Holder other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Holder’s lifetime, only by the Holder (or, to the extent of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Holder’s guardian or legal representative). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder, with the approval of the Committee, may transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option (i) (A) by gift, for no consideration, or (B) pursuant to a domestic relations order, in either case, to or for the benefit of the Holder’s “Immediate Family” (as defined below), or (ii) to an entity in which the Holder and/or members of Holder’s Immediate Family own more than fifty percent of the voting interest, subject to such limits as the Committee may establish and the execution of such documents as the Committee may require, and the transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to the Non-Qualified Stock Option prior to such transfer. The term “Immediate Family” shall mean any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the Holder’s household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent beneficial interest, and a foundation in which these persons (or the Holder) control the management of the assets.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit transfer of an Incentive Stock Option in a manner consistent with applicable tax and securities law upon the Holder’s request.

(g) Termination by Reason of Death. If a Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company or a Subsidiary terminates by reason of death, any Stock Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Stock Option that has vested on the date of death may thereafter be exercised by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Holder under the will of the Holder, for a period of one year (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is shorter.

 

(h) Termination by Reason of Disability. If a Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of Disability, any Stock Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Stock Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is shorter.

 

(i) Termination by Reason of Normal Retirement. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, if such Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company or any Subsidiary terminates due to Normal Retirement, any Stock Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that the portion of such Stock Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of one year (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is shorter.

 

(j) Other Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, if such Holder’s employment by, or association with, the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or Normal Retirement, any Stock Option held by such Holder, unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, shall thereupon automatically terminate, except that, if the Holder’s employment is terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary without cause, the portion of such Stock Option that has vested on the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the Holder for a period of three months (or such other greater or lesser period as the Committee may specify in the Agreement) from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is shorter.

 

(k) Buyout and Settlement Provisions. The Committee may at any time, in its sole discretion, offer to repurchase a Stock Option previously granted, at a purchase price not to exceed the Repurchase Value, based upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to the Holder at the time that such offer is made.

 

(l) Rights as Shareholder.  A Holder shall have none of the rights of a Shareholder with respect to the shares subject to the Option until such shares shall be transferred to the Holder upon the exercise of the Option.

Section 6. Stock Appreciation Rights.

 

6.1.   Grant and Exercise.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights in tandem with an Option or alone and unrelated to an Option. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to participants who have been or are being granted Stock Options under the Plan as a means of allowing such participants to exercise their Stock Options without the need to pay the exercise price in cash. In the case of a Non-qualified Stock Option, a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of such Non-qualified Stock Option. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted only at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option.

 

6.2.   Terms and Conditions. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(a) Exercisability. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, subject, for Stock Appreciation Rights granted in tandem with an Incentive Stock Option, to the limitations, if any, imposed by the Code with respect to related Incentive Stock Options.

 

(b) Termination. All or a portion of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with a Stock Option shall terminate and shall no longer be exercisable upon the termination or after the exercise of the applicable portion of the related Stock Option.

 

(c) Method of Exercise.  Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable upon such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement and, for Stock Appreciation Rights granted in tandem with a Stock Option, by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Stock Option. Upon exercise of all or a portion of a Stock Appreciation Right and, if applicable, surrender of the applicable portion of the related Stock Option, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the SAR Value divided by the Fair Market Value on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

 

 (d) Shares Available Under Plan.  The granting of a Stock Appreciation Right in tandem with a Stock Option shall not affect the number of shares of Common Stock available for awards under the Plan. The number of shares available for awards under the Plan will, however, be reduced by the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of the Stock Option to which such Stock Appreciation Right relates.

 

Section 7. Restricted Stock.

 

7.1. Grant. Shares of Restricted Stock may be awarded either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Stock will be awarded, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the Holder, the time or times within which such awards may be subject to forfeiture (“Restriction Period”), the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof and all other terms and conditions of the awards.

 

  

8

  

 

7.2.   Terms and Conditions. Each Restricted Stock award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(a) Certificates. Restricted Stock, when issued, will be represented by a stock certificate or certificates registered in the name of the Holder to whom such Restricted Stock shall have been awarded. During the Restriction Period, certificates representing the Restricted Stock and any securities constituting Retained Distributions (as defined below) shall bear a legend to the effect that ownership of the Restricted Stock (and such Retained Distributions) and the enjoyment of all rights appurtenant thereto are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions provided in the Plan and the Agreement. Such certificates shall be deposited by the Holder with the Company, together with stock powers or other instruments of assignment, each endorsed in blank, which will permit transfer to the Company of all or any portion of the Restricted Stock and any securities constituting Retained Distributions that shall be forfeited or that shall not become vested in accordance with the Plan and the Agreement.

 

(b) Rights of Holder. Restricted Stock shall constitute issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock for all corporate purposes. The Holder will have the right to vote such Restricted Stock and to exercise all other rights, powers and privileges of a holder of Common Stock with respect to such Restricted Stock, with the exceptions that (i) the Holder will not be entitled to delivery of the stock certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Stock until the Restriction Period shall have expired and unless all other vesting requirements with respect thereto shall have been fulfilled; (ii) the Company will retain custody of the stock certificate or certificates representing the Restricted Stock during the Restriction Period; (iii) the Company will retain custody of all dividends and distributions (“Retained Distributions”) made, paid or declared with respect to the Restricted Stock (and such Retained Distributions will be subject to the same restrictions, terms and conditions as are applicable to the Restricted Stock) until such time, if ever, as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Retained Distributions shall have been made, paid or declared shall have become vested and with respect to which the Restriction Period shall have expired; and (iv) a breach of any of the restrictions, terms or conditions contained in this Plan or the Agreement or otherwise established by the Committee with respect to any Restricted Stock or Retained Distributions will cause a forfeiture of such Restricted Stock and any Retained Distributions with respect thereto.

 

(c) Vesting; Forfeiture. Upon the expiration of the Restriction Period with respect to each award of Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions, terms and conditions (i) all or part of such Restricted Stock shall become vested in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and (ii) any Retained Distributions with respect to such Restricted Stock shall become vested to the extent that the Restricted Stock related thereto shall have become vested. Any such Restricted Stock and Retained Distributions that do not vest shall be forfeited to the Company and the Holder shall not thereafter have any rights with respect to such Restricted Stock and Retained Distributions that shall have been so forfeited.

 

Section 8. Other Stock-Based Awards.

 

Other Stock-Based Awards may be awarded, subject to limitations under applicable law, that are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, shares of Common Stock, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including, without limitation, purchase rights, shares of Common Stock awarded which are not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debentures, or other rights convertible into shares of Common Stock and awards valued by reference to the value of securities of or the performance of specified Subsidiaries. These other stock-based awards may include performance shares or options, whose award is tied to specific performance criteria. Other Stock-Based Awards may be awarded either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other awards under this Plan or any other plan of the Company. Each other Stock-Based Award shall be subject to such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee.

Section 9. Accelerated Vesting and Exercisability.

 

9.1. Non-Approved Transactions.  If any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of the stock of the Company, and the Board does not authorize or otherwise approve such acquisition, then the vesting periods of any and all Stock Options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Plan shall be accelerated and all such Stock Options and awards will immediately and entirely vest, and the respective holders thereof will have the immediate right to purchase and/or receive any and all Common Stock subject to such Stock Options and awards on the terms set forth in this Plan and the respective Agreements respecting such Stock Options and awards. An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires its stock in exchange for property is not treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this Section 9.1.

 

9.2. Approved Transactions.  The Committee may, in the event of an acquisition by any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, together with acquisitions during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons, of assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions, or if any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of the stock of the Company, which has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, (i) accelerate the vesting of any and all Stock Options and other awards granted and outstanding under the Plan, or (ii) require a Holder of any award granted under this Plan to relinquish such award to the Company upon the tender by the Company to Holder of cash in an amount equal to the Repurchase Value of such award. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

 

9.3. Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan or any award granted hereunder to the contrary, no acceleration shall occur with respect to any award to the extent such acceleration would cause the Plan or an award granted hereunder to fail to comply with Code Section 409A.

 

Section 10. Amendment and Termination.

 

The Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend alter, suspend or discontinue any of the provisions of the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuance shall be made that would impair the rights of a Holder under any Agreement theretofore entered into hereunder, without the Holder’s consent, except as set forth in this Plan.

 

  

10

  

 

Section 11. Term of Plan.

 

11.1. Effective Date. The Effective Date of the Plan shall be the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board.  Awards may be granted under the Plan at any time after the Effective Date and before the date fixed herein for termination of the Plan; provided, however, that if the Plan is not approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock cast at a duly held stockholders’ meeting at which a quorum is, either in person or by proxy, present and voting within one year from the Effective Date, then (i) no Incentive Stock Options may be granted hereunder and (ii) all Incentive Stock Options previously granted hereunder shall be automatically converted into Non-qualified Stock Options.

 

11.2. Termination Date. Unless terminated by the Board, this Plan shall continue to remain effective until such time as no further awards may be granted and all awards granted under the Plan are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of Incentive Stock Options may be made only during the ten-year period beginning on the Effective Date.

 

Section 12. General Provisions.

 

12.1. Written Agreements. Each award granted under the Plan shall be confirmed by, and shall be subject to the terms of, the Agreement executed by the Company and the Holder, or such other document as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may terminate any award made under the Plan if the Agreement relating thereto is not executed and returned to the Company within 10 days after the Agreement has been delivered to the Holder for his or her execution.

 

12.2. Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Holder by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

 

12.3. Employees.

 

(a) Engaging in Competition With the Company; Solicitation of Customers and Employees; Disclosure of Confidential Information. If a Holder’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for any reason whatsoever, and within 12 months after the date thereof such Holder either (i) accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise engages in competition with, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) solicits any customers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to do business with or render services to the Holder or any business with which the Holder becomes affiliated or to which the Holder renders services or (iii) uses or discloses to anyone outside the Company any confidential information or material of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of the Company’s policies or any agreement between the Holder and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require such Holder to return to the Company the economic value of any award that was realized or obtained by such Holder at any time during the period beginning on the date that is six months prior to the date such Holder’s employment with the Company is terminated. In such event, Holder agrees to remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of termination (or the sales price of such Shares if the Shares were sold during such six month period) and the price the Holder paid the Company for such Shares.

 

  

11

  

 

(b) Termination for Cause. If a Holder’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for cause, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, require such Holder to return to the Company the economic value of any award that was realized or obtained by such Holder at any time during the period beginning on that date that is six months prior to the date such Holder’s employment with the Company is terminated. In such event, Holder agrees to remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of termination (or the sales price of such Shares if the Shares were sold during such six month period) and the price the Holder paid the Company for such Shares.

 

(c) No Right of Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any award hereunder shall be deemed to confer upon any Holder who is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary any right to continued employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any Holder who is an employee at any time.

 

12.4. Investment Representations; Company Policy. The Committee may require each person acquiring shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Option or other award under the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Holder is acquiring the shares for investment without a view to distribution thereof. Each person acquiring shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Option or other award under the Plan shall be required to abide by all policies of the Company in effect at the time of such acquisition and thereafter with respect to the ownership and trading of the Company’s securities.

 

12.5. Additional Incentive Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting such other or additional incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the granting of Stock Options and the awarding of Common Stock and cash otherwise than under the Plan; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

 

12.6. Withholding Taxes. Not later than the date as of which an amount must first be included in the gross income of the Holder for Federal income tax purposes with respect to any Stock Option or other award under the Plan, the Holder shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any Federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. If permitted by the Committee, tax withholding or payment obligations may be settled with Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the award that gives rise to the withholding requirement. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditioned upon such payment or arrangements and the Company or the Holder’s employer (if not the Company) shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Holder from the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

12.7. Governing Law. The Plan and all awards made and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware (without regard to choice of law provisions).

 

12.8. Other Benefit Plans. Any award granted under the Plan shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or any Subsidiary and shall not affect any benefits under any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation (unless required by specific reference in any such other plan to awards under this Plan).

 

  

12

  

 

12.9. Non-Transferability. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or the Agreement, no right or benefit under the Plan may be alienated, sold, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, exchanged, transferred, encumbranced or charged, and any attempt to alienate, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge, exchange, transfer, encumber or charge the same shall be void.

 

12.10. Applicable Laws. The obligations of the Company with respect to all Stock Options and awards under the Plan shall be subject to (i) all applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, and (ii) the rules and regulations of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed.

 

12.11. Conflicts. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan or an Agreement conflict with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with such requirements. Additionally, if this Plan or any Agreement does not contain any provision required to be included herein under Section 422 of the Code, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein and therein with the same force and effect as if such provision had been set out at length herein and therein. If any of the terms or provisions of any Agreement conflict with any terms or provisions of the Plan, then such terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of the Plan. Additionally, if any Agreement does not contain any provision required to be included therein under the Plan, such provision shall be deemed to be incorporated therein with the same force and effect as if such provision had been set out at length therein.

 

12.12. Certain Awards Deferring or Accelerating the Receipt of Compensation. To the extent applicable, all awards granted, and all Agreements entered into, under the Plan are intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code, which was added by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and relates to deferred compensation under nonqualified deferred compensation plans. The Committee, in administering the Plan, intends, and the parties entering into any Agreement intend, to restrict provisions of any awards that may constitute deferred receipt of compensation subject to Code Section 409A requirements to those consistent with this Section. The Board may amend the Plan to comply with Code Section 409A in the future.

 

12.13. Non-Registered Stock. The shares of Common Stock to be distributed under this Plan have not been, as of the Effective Date, registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws and the Company has no obligation to any Holder to register the Common Stock or to assist the Holder in obtaining an exemption from the various registration requirements, or to list the Common Stock on a national securities exchange or any other trading or quotation system, including Nasdaq.
