 28 

 (iv) With respect to each Receivable, all consents, licenses, approvals or

 (c) Notice of
Breach. Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.3 or 2.4, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties hereto, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider as soon as practicable and in any event within three Business Days following such discovery. 
 (d) Transfer of Ineligible Receivables. 
 (i) Automatic Removal. In the event of a breach with respect to a Receivable of any representations and warranties set forth in subsection 2.4(a)(iii), or in the event that a Receivable
is not an Eligible Receivable as a result of the failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in clause (d) of the definition of Eligible Receivable, and any of the

  

 29 

 
following three conditions is met: (A) as a result of such breach or event such Receivable is charged off as uncollectible or the Trust’s rights in, to or under such Receivable or its
proceeds are impaired or the proceeds of such Receivable are not available for any reason to the Trust free and clear of any Lien; (B) the Lien upon the subject Receivable (1) arises in favor of the United States of America or any State or
any agency or instrumentality thereof and involves taxes or liens arising under Title IV of ERISA or (2) has been consented to by the Originator or the Seller; or (C) the unsecured short term debt rating of the Originator is not at least
P-1 by Moody’s and the Lien upon the subject Receivable ranks prior to the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement; then, upon the earlier to occur of the discovery of such breach or event by the Seller or the Servicer or receipt by the Seller
of written notice of such breach or event given by the Trustee, each such Receivable shall be automatically removed from the Trust on the terms and conditions set forth in subsection 2.4(d)(iii) and shall no longer be treated as a
Receivable; provided, that if such Lien does not have a material adverse effect on the collectibility of the Receivables or on the interests of the Certificateholders or Receivables Purchasers of any Series or the Enhancement Provider, the
Seller shall have 10 days within which to remove any such Lien. 
 (ii) Removal After Cure Period. In the
event of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in subsection 2.4(a)(ii)-(vi), other than a breach or event as set forth in clause (d)(i) above, and as a result of such breach the Receivable becomes
charged off or the Trust’s rights in, to or under the Receivable or its proceeds are impaired or the proceeds of such Receivable are not available for any reason to the Trust free and clear of any Lien, then, upon the expiration of 60 days from
the earlier to occur of the discovery of any such event by either the Seller or the Servicer, or receipt by the Seller of written notice of any such event given by the Trustee or any Purchaser Representative, each such Receivable shall be removed
from the Trust on the terms and conditions set forth in subsection 2.4(d)(iii) and shall no longer be treated as a Receivable; provided, however, that no such removal shall be required to be made if, on any day within such
applicable period, such representations and warranties with respect to such Receivable shall then be true and correct in all material respects as if such Receivable had been created on such day. 
 (iii) Procedures for Removal. When the provisions of subsection 2.4(d)(i) or (ii) above
require removal of a Receivable, the Seller shall accept reassignment of each such Receivable (an “Ineligible Receivable”) by directing the Servicer to deduct the principal balance of each such Ineligible Receivable from the
Principal Receivables in the Trust and to decrease the Seller Interest by such amount (but not below zero). On and after the date of such removal, each Ineligible Receivable shall be deducted from the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables used
in the calculation of any Investor/Purchaser Percentage, the Seller Percentage or the Seller Interest. In the event that the exclusion of an Ineligible Receivable from the calculation of the Seller Interest would cause the Seller Interest to be
reduced below the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest, the Seller shall immediately, but in no event later than 10 Business Days after such event, or, if earlier, the next succeeding Distribution Date, make a deposit in the Excess Funding Account

  

 30 

 
(except that the portion of such amount allocable to any Receivables Purchase Series shall be deposited in the Collection Account for the benefit of such Receivables Purchase Series) in
immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount by which the Seller Interest would be reduced below the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest. Upon the reassignment to the Seller of an Ineligible Receivable, the Trust shall automatically
and without further action be deemed to Convey to the Seller, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Trust in and to such Ineligible Receivable (and if all the Receivables of an Account are Ineligible
Receivables, all Receivables then existing and thereafter created in the related Account), all monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all Collections, all Recoveries, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges with respect to such
Ineligible Receivable, and all proceeds of the foregoing and any such reassigned Ineligible Receivable shall no longer be treated as a Receivable. The Trustee shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment, including a
written assignment in substantially the form of Exhibit E-2, and take other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Seller to evidence the Conveyance of such Ineligible Receivable pursuant to this
subsection 2.4(d)(iii). The obligation of the Seller set forth in this subsection 2.4(d)(iii), or the automatic removal of such Receivable from the Trust, as the case may be, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting any
breach of the representations and warranties set forth in the above-referenced subsections with respect to such Receivable available to Certificateholders or Receivables Purchasers or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders or Receivables
Purchasers, except as otherwise specified in any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 (e) Reassignment of Trust
Portfolio. In the event of a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in subsection 2.3(d) or 2.4(a)(i) of this Agreement or subsection 2.1(d) or 2.2(a)(i) of the Purchase Agreement, either (i) the
Trustee or the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests aggregating more than 50% of the aggregate Investor Interests of all Certificate Series or (ii) any Purchaser Representative, by notice then given in writing
to the Seller (and to the Trustee and the Servicer, if given by the Investor Certificateholders or any Purchaser Representative) may direct the Seller to accept reassignment of an amount of Principal Receivables (as specified below) within 60 days
of such notice and the Seller shall be obligated to accept reassignment of such Principal Receivables on a Distribution Date specified by such Person (such Distribution Date, the “Reassignment Date”) occurring within such applicable
period on the terms and conditions set forth below; provided, however, that no such reassignment shall be required to be made if, at any time during such applicable period, the representations and warranties contained in
subsection 2.3(d) and 2.4(a)(i) of this Agreement and Subsection 2.1(d) and 2.2(a)(i) of the Purchase Agreement shall then be true and correct in all material respects. The Trustee shall promptly notify each Purchaser
Representative of any such notice of reassignment, and each Purchaser Representative may, by notice to the Seller and the Trustee, designate the Series it represents as participating in such reassignment. The Seller shall deposit on the Reassignment
Date an amount equal to the reassignment deposit amount for such Receivables in the applicable Series Account, as provided in the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, for distribution to the Investor Certificateholders pursuant to
Article XII or the Receivables Purchasers pursuant to the related

  

 31 

 
Receivables Purchase Agreement or any Enhancement Provider pursuant to the applicable Supplement. The reassignment deposit amount for each Series with respect to which a notice directing
reassignment has been given, unless otherwise stated in the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, shall be equal to (a) in the case of any Certificate Series, (i) the Investor Interest of such Series and, if applicable, the
Enhancement Invested Amount at the end of the day on the last day of the Due Period preceding the Reassignment Date, less the amount, if any, previously allocated for payment of principal to such Certificateholders on the related Distribution Date
in the Due Period in which the Reassignment Date occurs, plus (ii) an amount equal to all interest accrued but unpaid on the Investor Certificates and, if applicable, the Enhancement Invested Amount of such Series at the applicable
Certificate Rate through such last day, less the amount, if any, previously allocated for payment of interest to the Certificateholders of such Series on the related Distribution Date in the Due Period in which the Reassignment Date occurs, and
(b) in the case of any Receivables Purchase Series, all principal and accrued interest on such Receivables Purchase Series through such Reassignment Date and all accrued and unpaid fees and expenses and unreimbursed Loss Amounts under the
related Receivables Purchase Agreement. Payment of the reassignment deposit amount with respect to each Series and all other amounts in the applicable Series Account in respect of the preceding Due Period shall be considered a prepayment in full of
the interest in the Receivables represented by such Series. On the Distribution Date on which such amount has been deposited in full into the applicable Series Account, Receivables with an aggregate principal balance equal to the aggregate Investor
Interests and Receivables Purchase Interests of all Series with respect to which a notice directing reassignment has been given and all monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all Collections, all Recoveries, and all proceeds of such
Receivables be released to the Seller after payment of all amounts otherwise due hereunder on or prior to such dates and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation
or warranty, as shall be prepared by and as are reasonably requested by the Seller to vest in the Seller, all right, title and interest of the Trust in and to the Receivables then existing and thereafter created in the related Accounts, all monies
due or to become due with respect thereto, all Collections, all Recoveries, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges with respect to such Receivables, and all proceeds of the foregoing. If the Trustee, the Investor Certificateholders or the
Purchaser Representatives give notice directing the Seller to accept reassignment as provided above, the obligation of the Seller to accept reassignment of the Receivables and pay the reassignment deposit amount pursuant to this
subsection 2.4(e) shall constitute the sole remedy respecting a breach of the representations and warranties contained in subsections 2.3(d) and 2.4(a)(i) available to the Investor Certificateholders, the Trustee on
behalf of the Investor Certificateholders or the Receivables Purchasers. 
 Section 2.5 Covenants of the Seller. The
Seller hereby covenants that: 
 (a) Receivables to be Accounts. The Seller will take no action to cause any Receivable
to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction). Each Receivable shall be payable pursuant to a contract which does not create a Lien on any goods purchased thereunder. The Seller will take no
action to cause any Receivable to be anything other than an “account,” or a “general intangible” or the “proceeds” of either for purposes of the UCC as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction. 
  

 32 

 (b) Security Interests. Except for the Conveyances contemplated hereunder, the Seller
will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any Receivable, whether now existing or hereafter created, or any interest therein; the Seller will promptly notify the
Trustee of the existence of any Lien on any Receivable; and the Seller shall defend the right, title and interest of the Trust in, to and under the Receivables, whether now existing or hereafter created, against all claims of third parties claiming
through or under the Seller or the Originator; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection 2.5(b) shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit the Seller from suffering to exist upon any of the Receivables any Liens for
municipal and other local taxes if such taxes shall not at the time be due and payable or if the Seller or the Originator, as applicable, shall currently be contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and shall have set
aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto. 
 (c) Cardholder Agreements and Cardholder Guidelines. The
Seller shall enforce the covenant in the Purchase Agreement requiring the Originator to comply with and perform its obligations under the Cardholder Agreements relating to the Accounts and the Cardholder Guidelines except insofar as any failure to
comply or perform would not materially and adversely affect the rights of the Trust, the Certificateholders, any Enhancement Provider or any Receivables Purchasers. The Seller may permit the Originator to change the terms and provisions of the
Cardholder Agreements or the Cardholder Guidelines in any respect (including, without limitation, the reduction of the required minimum monthly payment, the calculation of the amount, or the timing, of charge-offs and the periodic finance charges
and other fees to be assessed thereon), unless such change would have a material adverse effect on the collectibility of the Receivables; provided, however, that the Seller may not permit the Originator to change the required minimum
monthly payment or periodic finance charge (collectively, a “Yield Change”) unless, after five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Rating Agency of a Yield Change, the Rating Agency shall have provided written notice to the
Seller that the Rating Agency Condition shall be satisfied or unless such Yield Change is mandated by applicable law. 
 (d)
Account Allocations. In the event that the Seller is unable for any reason to transfer Receivables to the Trust in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, by reason of the application of the provisions
of Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(b) or by an order by any federal or state governmental agency having regulatory authority over the Seller or any court of competent jurisdiction that the Seller not transfer any additional Principal
Receivables to the Trust) then, in any such event, (A) the Seller agrees to allocate and pay to the Trust, after the date of such inability, all Collections with respect to Principal Receivables, and all amounts which would have constituted
Collections with respect to Principal Receivables but for the Seller’s inability to transfer such Receivables (up to an aggregate amount equal to the amount of Principal Receivables in the Trust on such date); (B) the Seller agrees to have
such amounts applied as Collections in accordance with Article IV; and (C) for only so long as all Collections and all amounts which would have constituted Collections are allocated and applied in accordance with
clauses (A) and (B) above, Principal Receivables (and all amounts which would have constituted Principal Receivables but for the Seller’s inability to transfer Receivables to the Trust) that are charged off as
uncollectible in accordance with this Agreement shall continue to be allocated in accordance with Article IV, and all amounts that would have

  

 33 

 
constituted Principal Receivables but for the Seller’s inability to transfer Receivables to the Trust shall be deemed to be Principal Receivables for the purpose of calculating (i) the
applicable Investor/Purchaser Percentage with respect to any Series and (ii) the Aggregate Investor/Purchaser Interest thereunder. If the Seller is unable pursuant to any Requirement of Law to allocate Collections as described above, the Seller
agrees that it shall in any such event allocate, after the occurrence of such event, payments on each Account with respect to the principal balance of such Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Account and to have such payments
applied as Collections in accordance with Article IV. The parties hereto agree that Finance Charge Receivables, whenever created, accrued in respect of Principal Receivables that have been conveyed to the Trust, or that would have been
conveyed to the Trust but for the above described inability to transfer such Receivables, shall continue to be a part of the Trust notwithstanding any cessation of the transfer of additional Principal Receivables to the Trust and Collections with
respect thereto shall continue to be allocated and paid in accordance with Article IV. 
 (e) Delivery of
Collections. The Seller agrees to pay to the Servicer all payments received by the Seller in respect of the Receivables as soon as practicable after receipt thereof by the Seller.

notify the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider after becoming aware of any Lien on any Receivable.

under this Agreement to be complete and accurate in all material respects.

shall notify the Trustee, each Rating Agency and each Purchaser Representative of any Early Amortization Event or Servicer Default of which it has knowledge, promptly upon obtaining such knowledge. 
 (j) Offices, Records and Books of Account. The Seller will keep its principal place of business and chief executive office and the
office where it keeps its records concerning the Receivables at the address of the Seller set forth under its name on the signature page to the Agreement or, upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative,
at any other locations in jurisdictions where all actions reasonably requested by the Trustee and any Purchaser Representative to protect and perfect the interest in the Receivables have been taken and completed. The Seller also will maintain and
implement administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing Receivables and related Cardholder Agreements in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and
maintain all documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit the daily identification of each Receivable and all
Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable). 
  

 34 

 (k) Amendments to Purchase Agreement. The Seller shall make no amendment to the
Purchase Agreement that would adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Investor Certificateholders, any Receivables Purchaser or any Enhancement Provider. Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Purchase Agreement,

 35 

 (vi) ensure that its assets are not commingled with those of the Originator,
the Servicer, or any other Person;

Trustee, enforce (for the benefit of the Trust) the obligations of the Originator under the Purchase Agreement. 
 Section 2.6 Addition of Accounts. 
 (a) Required Additions. If, either (i) the average of the
Seller Interest over any 30 day period ending on the last day of the Due Period is less than the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest or (ii) on the last Business Day of any Due Period occurring on or prior to the Series Termination Date of any
Certificate Series outstanding prior to the Effective Date , the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables is less than the Minimum Aggregate Principal Receivables on such date, the Seller shall on or prior to the close of business on the 10th
Business Day following the last Business Day of such Due Period (the “Required Designation Date”), unless the Seller Interest exceeds the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest or the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables exceeds the
Minimum Aggregate Principal Receivables, as the case may be, in either case as of the close of business on any day after the last Business Day of such Due Period

  

 36 

 
and prior to the Required Designation Date, designate additional Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts as of the Required Designation Date (“Additional Accounts”) or any
earlier date in a sufficient amount such that after giving effect to such addition, the Seller Interest as of the close of business on the Addition Date is at least equal to the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest on such date and the aggregate amount
of Principal Receivables equals or exceeds the Minimum Aggregate Principal Receivables on such date. The failure of any condition set forth in paragraph (c) or (d) below as the case may be, shall not relieve the Seller of its
obligation pursuant to this paragraph; provided, however, that the failure of the Seller to transfer Receivables to the Trust as provided in this paragraph solely as a result of the unavailability of a sufficient amount of Eligible
Receivables shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement; provided further, that any such failure which has not been timely cured will nevertheless result in the occurrence of a Series Early Amortization Event with respect to each
Series for which, pursuant to the Supplement therefor, a failure by the Seller to convey Receivables in Additional Accounts to the Trust by the day on which it is required to convey such Receivables constitutes a “Series Early Amortization
Event” (as defined in such Supplement). 
 (b) Permitted Additions. The Seller may from time to time, at its sole
discretion, subject to the conditions specified in paragraph (c) or (d) below, as the case may be, designate additional Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts in either case as of the applicable Addition Date.

 (c) Automatic Additional Accounts. (i) The Seller may from time to time, at its sole discretion, subject to and
in compliance with the limitations specified in clause (ii) below and the applicable conditions specified in paragraph (d) below, designate Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts as of the applicable Addition Date.

 (ii) Unless each Rating Agency otherwise consents, the Receivables in such Automatic Additional Accounts plus the Receivables
in Additional Accounts added pursuant to Section 2.6(a), without satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition described under Section 2.6(d)(vi), shall not exceed during any of the three consecutive Monthly Periods commencing
in January, April, July and October of each calendar year, commencing in July 1994 (each, a “Quarterly Period”), the amount of Receivables equal to 10% of the Receivables as of the first day of the calendar year during which such
Quarterly Period commences (or the Addition Date occurring on May 4, 1994, in the case of 1994) and during each 12 month period ending as of the most recent Addition Date shall not exceed the amount of Receivables equal to 15% of the
Receivables as of the first day of such 12 month period (collectively, the “Aggregate Addition Limit”). Additionally, the conditions set forth in Section 2(d)(ii), 2(d)(vii) and 2(d)(viii) shall only be
required to be delivered on the last day of any Due Period in which Receivables have been conveyed to the Trust pursuant to this Section 2.6(c). Following the addition of any such Automatic Additional Accounts and any Additional Accounts
made pursuant to Section 2.6(a), the Servicer shall provide information (x) to Moody’s with respect to such Additional Accounts not later than the last Business Day of the month following the Quarterly Period in which such
addition occurs in the form approved from time to time by Moody’s and the Servicer and (y) to any Rating Agency such information as shall be requested by such Rating Agency with respect to such Additional Accounts. 
  

 37 

 (d) Conditions to Additions. The Seller agrees that any such Conveyance of
Receivables from Additional Accounts under subsection 2.6(a), (b) or (c) shall satisfy the following conditions (to the extent provided below) (provided, however, that the conditions set forth in

Additional Accounts conveyed on such Addition Date until the termination of the Trust, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all Collections, all Recoveries, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges with respect to the
Receivables, and all proceeds of the foregoing upon such creation; and (z) if the Assignment constitutes the grant of a security interest to the Trust in such property, upon the filing of financing statements as described in

 (e)
No account shall be added to the Trust hereunder if such addition would be prohibited by or inconsistent with the terms of any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 Section 2.7 Removal of Accounts. 
  

 39 

 (a) Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Seller may, but shall not be obligated
to, designate Accounts the Receivables of which will be removed from the Trust (“Removed Accounts”); provided, however, that the Seller shall not make more than one such designation in any Due Period. On or before the
fifth Business Day (the “Removal Notice Date”) prior to the date on which the Receivables in the designated Removed Accounts will be reassigned by the Trust to the Seller (the “Removal Date”), the Seller shall give
the Trustee, the Servicer, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider written notice that the Receivables from such Removed Accounts are to be removed from the Trust and reassigned to it. 
 (b) The Seller shall be permitted to designate and require reassignment to it of the Receivables from Removed Accounts only upon
satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) the removal of any Receivables of any Removed Accounts on any

Obligor in connection with the Receivables, the Accounts, the Cardholder Agreements or other agreement or instrument relating thereto. 
 Section 2.10 Discount Option. 
 (a) The Seller shall have the option to designate at any time and from
time to time a percentage or percentages from 0% to 4%, which may be a fixed percentage or a variable percentage based on a formula, but in no event greater than 4% (the “Discount Percentage”), of all or any specified portion of

Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such designation.

interest or penalties with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith). The Servicer shall be required to pay such expenses for its own account and shall not be entitled to any payment therefor other than the Monthly Servicing
Fee.

initial Servicer, hereby makes, and any Successor Servicer by its appointment hereunder shall make, the following representations, warranties and covenants (the representations and warranties below to be modified, if appropriate, with respect to any

Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of a Receivable, the Servicer will take no action to cause any Receivable to be evidenced by any “instrument” (as defined in the UCC). 
 (k) Total Systems Failure. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement
Provider of any Total Systems Failure and shall advise the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative of the estimated time required in order to remedy such Total Systems Failure and of the estimated date on which a monthly Servicer’s report can
be delivered. Until a Total Systems Failure is remedied, the Servicer will (i) furnish to the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider such periodic status reports and other information relating to such Total Systems
Failure as the Trustee, any Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider may reasonably request and (ii) promptly notify the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider if the Servicer believes that such
Total Systems Failure cannot be remedied by the estimated date, which notice shall include a description of the circumstances which gave rise to such delay, and the action proposed to be taken in response thereto, and a revised estimate of the date
on which a monthly Servicer’s report can be delivered. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider when a Total Systems Failure has been remedied. 
 (l) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. The Servicer will not add or terminate any Depository Bank, or make any change in its
instructions to Obligors regarding the method by which payments are to be made in respect of Receivables, unless the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider shall have received notice of such addition, termination or
change and copies of Depository Bank Agreements with each new Depository Bank, duly executed by the Originator, assigned to the Seller and duly acknowledged by such Depository Bank, or such other notice or acknowledgments as the Trustee, each
Purchaser Representative or each Enhancement Provider may reasonably request. The names and addresses of all the Depository Banks, together with the account numbers of the Initial Depository Accounts of the Servicer at such Depository Banks, are
specified in Schedule II hereto (or at such other Depository Banks and/or with such other Initial Depository Accounts as have been notified to the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative in accordance with this subsection.) 
 Section 3.4 Reports and Records for the Trustee.

 Section 3.5 Annual Servicer’s Certificate. On or prior to the date of the delivery of
each accountant’s report pursuant to Section 3.6(a), the Servicer will deliver to the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider an Officer’s Certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit F stating that (a) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the prior calendar year and of its performance under this Agreement was made under the supervision of the officer signing such certificate and (b) to
the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fully performed all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such period, or, if there has been a default in the performance of any such obligation, specifying
each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. A copy of such certificate may be obtained by any Investor Certificateholder or any Receivables Purchaser by a request in writing to the Trustee addressed to the Corporate
Trust Office, or as set forth in any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 Section 3.6 Annual Independent
Accountants’ Servicing Report. (a) On or before May 30 of each calendar year, beginning with May 30, 1994, the Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent certified public accountants (who may also render
other services to the Servicer, the Seller or the Originator) to furnish a report to the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider, to the effect that such firm has made a study and evaluation, in accordance with the
procedures specified in Exhibit G, of the Servicer’s internal accounting controls relative to the servicing of Accounts under this Agreement, any Supplement and any Receivables Purchase Agreement for the prior calendar year, and
that, on the basis of such study and evaluation, such firm is of the opinion (assuming

  

 46 

 
the accuracy of any reports generated by the Servicer’s third party agents) that the system of internal accounting controls in effect on the date set forth in such report, relating to
servicing procedures performed by the Servicer, taken as a whole, was sufficient for the prevention and detection of errors and irregularities in amounts that would be material to the financial statements of Charming Shoppes, Inc. or the assets of
the Trust and that such servicing was conducted in compliance with this Agreement during the period covered by such report, except for such exceptions, errors or irregularities as such firm shall believe to be immaterial to the financial statements
of Charming Shoppes, Inc. or immaterial to the assets of the Trust and such other exceptions, errors or irregularities as shall be set forth in such report. The Servicer shall investigate and correct such material exceptions, errors or
irregularities at its own expense. A copy of such report may be obtained by any Investor Certificateholder or Receivables Purchaser by a request in writing to the Trustee addressed to the Corporate Trust Office or as set forth in any Supplement or
Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 (b) On or before May 30 of each calendar year, beginning with May 30, 1994, the
Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent certified Public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or the Originator) to furnish a report to the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative and
each Enhancement Provider, prepared using generally accepted auditing standards, to the effect that such firm has compared the mathematical calculations of each amount set forth in the monthly certificates forwarded by the Servicer pursuant to
subsection 3.4(b) during the prior calendar year with the Servicer’s computer reports which were the source of such amounts and that on the basis of such comparison, such firm is of the opinion that such amounts are in agreement,
except for such exceptions as it believes to be immaterial to the accuracy of the information set forth in such certificates of the Servicer and such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such report. A copy of such report may be obtained by any
Investor Certificateholder or Receivables Purchaser by a request in writing to the Trustee addressed to the Corporate Trust Office or as set forth in any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 Section 3.7 Tax Treatment. The Seller has structured this Agreement, the Investor Certificates and the Receivables Purchase
Interests with the intention that the Investor Certificates and the Receivables Purchase Interests will qualify under applicable federal, state and local tax law as indebtedness. The Seller, the Servicer, the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller
Certificate, each Investor Certificateholder, each Certificate Owner and each Receivables Purchaser agree to treat and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of the Investor Certificates (or beneficial interest therein) or the Receivables
Purchase Interests as indebtedness for purposes of federal, state and local income or franchise taxes and any other tax imposed on or measured by income. Each Investor Certificateholder and the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate, by
acceptance of its Certificate, each Certificate Owner, by acquisition of a beneficial interest in a Certificate, and each Receivables Purchaser, by its purchase of a Receivables Purchase Interest, agree to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 3.7. Each Certificateholder agrees that it will cause any Certificate Owner acquiring an interest in a Certificate through it to comply with this Agreement as to treatment as indebtedness under applicable tax law, as described in
this Section 3.7. 
  

 47 

 Section 3.8 Notices to the Seller. In the event that Spirit of America National
Bank is no longer acting as Servicer, any Successor Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 10.2 shall deliver or make available to the Seller each certificate and report required to be prepared, forwarded or delivered thereafter pursuant
to Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6.

receive the Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this Article IV to be deposited in the Collection Account or the Excess Funding Account or to be paid to the Investor Certificateholders of such
Certificate Series; provided, however, that the aggregate interest represented by such Certificate Series at any time in the Principal Receivables shall not exceed an amount equal to the Investor Interest at such time. The Exchangeable
Seller Certificate shall represent the remaining undivided interest in the Trust (provided, that the Trust shall not include any undivided percentage ownership interest in Receivables to the extent sold by the Trust pursuant to any
Receivables Purchase Agreement), including the right to receive the Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this Article IV to be paid to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate;
provided, however, that the aggregate interest represented by such Exchangeable Seller Certificate at any time in the Principal Receivables shall not exceed the Seller Interest at such time and such Exchangeable Seller Certificate
shall not represent any interest in the Collection Account or the Excess Funding Account, except as provided in this Agreement, or the benefits of any Enhancement issued with respect to any Certificate Series, except as set forth in the related
Supplement. 
 (b) Each Receivables Purchase Interest shall represent undivided interests in the Receivables, including the
benefits of any Enhancement issued with respect to such Receivables Purchase Interest and the right to receive the Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this Article IV to be deposited in the
Collection Account or to be paid to the Receivables Purchasers of such Receivables Purchase Interest; provided, however, that the aggregate interest represented by such Receivables Purchase Interest at any time in the Principal
Receivables shall not exceed an amount equal to the Receivables Purchase Interest at such time. 
 Section 4.2
Establishment of Accounts. 
 (a) The Collection Account. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and any Receivables Purchasers, shall establish and maintain, with an office or branch of a Qualified Depository Institution, in the name of the Trustee and on behalf of the Trust, a segregated account (the “Collection Account”)
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, any Receivables Purchasers and any Enhancement Provider. The Trustee, for the ratable benefit of the Investor
Certificateholders in accordance with their Investor Interests, the Receivables Purchasers, to the

  

 48 

 
extent of their undivided interest in the Receivables, the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate (to the extent of the Seller Interest), the Originator (to the extent of the Originator
Deferred Payments) and any Enhancement Provider to the extent of any Enhancement Invested Amount, shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Collection Account and in all proceeds thereof. The
Collection Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Investor Certificateholders, the Receivables Purchasers, the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate and any Enhancement Provider to
the extent of any Enhancement Invested Amount, as set forth above. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Servicer agrees that it shall have no right of set-off or banker’s lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any
funds held in the Collection Account for any amount owed to it by the Trustee, the Trust, the Seller, the Originator, or any Certificateholder, Receivables Purchaser, Purchaser Representative or Enhancement Provider. Upon the occurrence of an Early
Amortization Event with respect to any Series, Collections shall be withdrawn from the Initial Depository Accounts and deposited in the Collection Account as specified in Section 4.3(a). Pursuant to authority granted to it hereunder, the
Servicer shall have the power to instruct the Trustee or such Qualified Depository Institution to withdraw funds from the Collection Account for the purpose of carrying out the Servicer’s duties hereunder; provided, that upon the
occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any Receivables Purchase Series, if so authorized pursuant to the related Receivables Purchase Agreement for such Receivables Purchase Series, the related Purchaser Representative shall have
the power to instruct the Trustee or such Qualified Depository Institution (to the extent of the undivided interest of the related Receivables Purchase Series in the Receivables and Collections thereof) to withdraw funds from the Collection Account
as authorized pursuant to such Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 (b) Series Accounts. Any Supplement or Receivables
Purchase Agreement may provide for additional accounts (“Series Accounts”) for the purpose of allocation and distribution of amounts allocated hereunder for the related Series. 
 (c) Administration of the Collection Account. Funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall at all times be invested in Permitted
Investments. Any such investment shall mature and such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to the next following Distribution Date; provided, that if, upon the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any
Receivables Purchase Series, the Purchaser Representative is authorized pursuant to the related Receivables Purchase Agreement for such Receivables Purchase Series to direct the Trustee to withdraw funds from the Collection Account prior to the next
succeeding Distribution Date, the portion of such amounts in the Collection Account allocable to such Series must be invested in investments which mature on or prior to such day upon which such withdrawal of funds is authorized. Subject to the
conditions set forth herein, the Servicer shall have the authority to instruct the Trustee with respect to the investment of such funds. At the end of each month, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit
in the Collection Account shall be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables. 
  

 49 

 Section 4.3 Collections and Allocations. 
 (a) Collections. The Seller and the Servicer hereby agree: (i) (A) to cause all Collections which may be sent by Obligors
by mail to be delivered to the Administrative Servicer; (B) to cause the Administrative Servicer to deposit all such Collections into the Initial Depository Account within two Business Days of receipt by the Administrative Servicer; and
(C) upon the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any Series, to cause all such payments to be deposited into the Collection Account within two Business Days of deposit of such payment into the Initial Depository Account;
and (ii) (A) to cause all Store Payments to be deposited in the related Store Account; (B) to cause all such Store Payments to be deposited into the Initial Depository Account within two Business Days of deposit of such payments into
a Store Account; and (C) upon the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any Series, to cause all such Store Payments to be deposited into the Collection Account within two Business Days of deposit of such Store Payments into
the Initial Depository Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the certificates of deposit, short-term deposits or commercial paper or the long-term unsecured debt obligations (other than any obligation whose rating is based on collateral or
on the credit of a Person other than the Servicer) of the Servicer shall have a credit rating from Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s of P-1 and A-1+ (or, from and after the Series Termination Date for all Certificate Series
outstanding prior to the Effective Date, A-1), respectively, in the case of the certificates of deposit, short-term deposits or commercial paper, or a rating from Moody’s of at least Aa3 and from Standard & Poor’s of at least AA-
in the case of the long term unsecured debt obligations, all amounts deposited into the Initial Depository Account on any Business Day shall on the same Business Day be withdrawn from the Initial Depository Account and deposited into the Collection
Account. 
 The Servicer hereby agrees not to deposit or otherwise credit, or cause or permit to be so deposited or credited, to
the Collection Account or the Initial Depository Account cash or cash proceeds other than Collections of Receivables. The Seller and Servicer agree to clearly and unambiguously identify each Account (including any Additional Account designated
pursuant to Section 2.6) in its computer or other records to reflect that an interest in the Receivables arising in such Account has been sold pursuant to this Agreement and any Receivables Purchase Agreements and shall, prior to the
sale or transfer to a third party of any Receivable held in its custody, examine its computer and other records to determine that an interest in such Receivable has not been sold. 
 (b) Series Allocations. The Servicer shall allocate Collections of Principal Receivables, Collections of Finance Charge Receivables
and Loss Amounts to each Certificate Series, each Receivables Purchase Series and to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate, based on the Investor/Purchaser Percentage for each such Series and the Seller Percentage for the Exchangeable
Seller Certificate, in accordance with this Article IV and shall withdraw the required amounts from the Collection Account or the Initial Depository Account or the Excess Funding Account to pay such amounts in accordance with this
Article IV and any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Servicer shall make such deposits or payments on the date indicated therein by wire transfer or as otherwise provided in the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase
Agreement with respect to any Series. 
  

 50 

 (c) Allocations for the Exchangeable Seller Certificate. Throughout the existence of
the Trust, unless otherwise stated in any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Servicer shall allocate to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate an amount equal to the sum of (i) the product of (A) the Seller
Percentage and (B) the aggregate amount of such Collections allocated to Principal Receivables and Finance Charge Receivables, respectively, in respect of each Due Period, and (ii) any additional amounts out of the Aggregate
Investor/Purchaser Interest allocated to the “Seller Interest” pursuant to any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement; provided that such allocation shall be subject to subsection 4.3(h). Unless otherwise stated in any
Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Servicer need not deposit this amount or any other amounts so allocated to the Exchangeable Seller Certificate or the Deferred Originator Payments pursuant to any Supplement or Receivables Purchase
Agreement into the Collection Account and shall pay such amounts as collected to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate or the Originator (as applicable); provided, however, the Servicer shall be entitled to deduct from such
amounts and retain an amount equal to the unpaid portion of any Seller Monthly Servicing Fee then due and payable. 
 (d)
Adjustments for Miscellaneous Credits and Fraudulent Charges. With respect to each Due Period, the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables (i) which were created in respect of merchandise refused or returned by the Obligor thereunder
or as to which the Obligor thereunder has asserted a counterclaim or defense, (ii) which were reduced by the Servicer by any rebate, refund, charge-back or adjustment (including Servicer errors) or (iii) which were created as a result of a
fraudulent or counterfeit charge (with respect to such Due Period, the “Dilution Amount”) will be allocated to each Series based upon the Series Percentage for such Series. The Series Dilution Amount for each Receivables Purchase
Series will be provided for in the related Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 Unless otherwise provided in the related
Supplement, on the last day of each Due Period, the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables used to calculate the Seller Interest will be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of the Series Dilution Amounts for each outstanding Certificate Series
for such Due Period. If such reduction would cause the Seller Interest to be less than the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest, the Seller shall promptly, but in no event later than 10 Business Days after such last day, either (i) make a deposit
in the Excess Funding Account in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount by which the Seller Interest would be reduced below the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest, (ii) Convey Receivables arising in Additional Accounts to
the Trust, and/or (iii) instruct the Servicer to deposit (or cause to be deposited) all or a portion of the Seller Allocations in the Excess Funding Account, such that upon such deposit and/or Conveyance the Seller Interest shall be greater
than the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest. 
 (e) Excess Funding Account. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Investor
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, a segregated trust account with a Qualified Depository Institution bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders (the “Excess Funding Account”). The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Excess Funding Account and in all

  

 51 

 
proceeds thereof. The Excess Funding Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, the Servicer agrees that it shall have no right of setoff or banker’s lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any funds held in the Excess Funding Account for any amount owed to it by the Trustee, the Trust, any
Certificateholder, any Receivables Purchaser or any Enhancement Provider. If, at any time, the institution holding the Excess Funding Account ceases to be a Qualified Depository Institution, the Trustee upon notice by Servicer (or the Servicer on
its behalf) shall promptly establish a new Excess Funding Account with a Qualified Depository Institution meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any cash or any investments to such new Excess Funding Account and from the date such new
Excess Funding Account is established, it shall be the “Excess Funding Account.” 
 Funds on deposit in the Excess
Funding Account shall at the direction of the Servicer be invested by the Trustee in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer. All such Permitted Investments shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders. The
Trustee shall maintain for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing such Permitted Investments. Funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account on any date (after giving
effect to any withdrawals from the Excess Funding Account on such date) will be invested in Permitted Investments that will mature so that funds will be available at the close of business on the Distribution Date following such date. On each
Determination Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Trustee to withdraw on the related Distribution Date from the Excess Funding Account and deposit in the Collection Account all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) on funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account, for application as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables (allocable to the Certificates Series pro rata based on the Investor/Purchaser Percentage of each Certificate Series
until paid in full) with respect to the prior Due Period. Interest (including reinvested interest) and other investment income and earnings on funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account shall not be considered part of the Excess Funding Amount
for purposes of this Agreement. On any Determination Date on which no Certificate Series is in an Accumulation Period or Amortization Period, the Servicer shall determine the amount by which the Seller Interest exceeds the Aggregate Minimum Seller
Interest on such date and shall instruct the Trustee to withdraw such amount from the Excess Funding Account on the related Distribution Date and pay such amount to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate; provided that such
allocation shall be subject to subsection 4.3(h). On any Determination Date on which one or more Certificate Series is in an Accumulation Period or Amortization Period, the Servicer shall determine the aggregate amount of Principal
Shortfalls, if any, with respect to each such Certificate Series that is a Principal Sharing Series (after giving effect to the allocation and payment provisions in the Supplement with respect to each such Certificate Series), and the Servicer shall
instruct the Trustee to withdraw such amount (up to the Excess Funding Amount) from the Excess Funding Account on the succeeding Distribution Date and allocate such amount among each such Certificate Series as Shared Principal Collections as
specified in each related Supplement. 
 (f) Shared Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date, (i) the
Servicer shall allocate Shared Principal Collections to each Principal Sharing Series in a Group, pro rata, in

  

 52 

 
proportion to the Principal Shortfalls, if any, with respect to each such Series and (ii) the Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account or the Excess Funding Account and pay to the
Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the aggregate amount for all such Series of Collections of Principal Receivables that the related Supplements or this Agreement specify are to be
treated as “Shared Principal Collections” for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount for all such Series that the related Supplements specify are “Principal Shortfalls” for such Distribution Date;
provided, however, that such amounts shall be paid to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate only if the Seller Interest for such Determination Date (determined after giving effect to any Principal Receivables transferred to
the Trust on such date) exceeds the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest; and provided further that, if on any Distribution Date the Seller Interest is less than or equal to the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest, the Servicer will not
distribute to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate any Shared Principal Collections then on deposit in the Collection Account that otherwise would be distributed to such Holder, but shall deposit such funds in the Excess Funding
Account. 
 (g) Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections. On each Distribution Date, (i) the Servicer shall allocate
Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to the Certificate Series in a Group to each Certificate Series in such Group, pro rata, in proportion to the Finance Charge Shortfalls, if any, with respect to each such
Certificate Series and (ii) the Servicer shall withdraw (or shall instruct the Trustee to withdraw) from the Collection Account and pay to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the
aggregate amount for all outstanding Certificate Series in a Group of the amounts that the related Supplements specify are to be treated as “Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections” for such Distribution Date over (y) the
aggregate amount for all outstanding Certificate Series in such Group that the related Supplements specify are “Finance Charge Shortfalls” for such Distribution Date; provided, however, that such payment shall be
subject to subsection 4.3(h); and provided further that the sharing of Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections among Certificate Series in a Group will continue only until such time, if any, at which the Seller shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that, in the reasonable belief of the Seller or its counsel, the continued sharing of Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections among Certificate Series in any Group would have adverse regulatory
implications with respect to the Originator. Following the delivery by the Seller of such an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee there will not be any further sharing of such Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections among Certificate Series in
any Group. 
 (h) Deferred Originator Payments. If the aggregate Seller Allocations for any Due Period (less any portion
of such Seller Allocations deposited in the Excess Funding Account) exceed the Seller Required Return, such excess shall (notwithstanding subsections 4.3(c), 4.3(e) and 4.3(g)) instead constitute Deferred Originator Payments and
be allocated and paid by the Servicer to the Originator. 
  

 53 

 ARTICLE V 
 DISTRIBUTIONS AND REPORTS TO RECEIVABLES 
 PURCHASERS AND CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

 Distributions shall be made to, and reports shall be provided to, Certificateholders and Receivables Purchasers of each
Series as set forth in the applicable Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 THE CERTIFICATES AND RECEIVABLES PURCHASE INTERESTS 
 Section 6.1 Certificates. The Investor Certificates of each Certificate Series may be issued, (i) if not issued to a United States Person and such Certificate Series otherwise meets the
requirements specified in Treas. Reg. §5f.163-1, in bearer form (“Bearer Certificates”) with attached interest coupons and any other applicable coupon (collectively, the “Coupons”) or (ii) in fully
registered form (“Registered Certificates”) and shall be substantially in the form of the exhibits with respect thereto attached to the related Supplement. The Exchangeable Seller Certificate shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A. The Investor Certificates and the Exchangeable Seller Certificate shall, upon issue pursuant hereto or to Section 6.9 or Section 6.10, be executed and delivered by the Seller to the Trustee for
authentication and redelivery as provided in Sections 2.1 and 6.2. Any Investor Certificate shall be issuable in a minimum denomination of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof, unless otherwise specified in any Supplement,
and shall be issued upon original issuance in an aggregate original principal amount equal to the Initial Investor Interest for the related Certificate Series. The Exchangeable Seller Certificate shall be initially issued as a single certificate to
the Seller. Each Certificate shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by a duly authorized signatory. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signature of the individual who was, at the time when such
signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee shall not be rendered invalid, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or does not hold such
office at the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
for herein, executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication, except that Bearer Certificates shall be dated the related Closing Date. 
 Section 6.2 Authentication of Certificates. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver any Series of Investor Certificates, upon
the written order of the Seller, to such Person as shall be designated by the Seller, against payment to the Seller of the applicable Initial Investor Interest (net of any discount). Upon the receipt of such payment and the issuance of the Investor
Certificates, such Investor Certificates shall be fully paid and non-assessable. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Exchangeable Seller Certificate to the Seller simultaneously with the initial Conveyance to the Trust of Receivables.
Upon an Exchange as provided in Section 6.9 and the satisfaction of certain other conditions specified therein, the Trustee shall authenticate

  

 54 

 
and deliver the Investor Certificates of additional Certificate Series (with the designation provided in the related Supplement), upon the order of the Seller, to the persons designated in such
Supplement. Upon the order of the Seller, the Certificates of any Certificate Series shall be duly authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee, in authorized denominations equal to (in the aggregate) the Initial Investor Interest of such
Certificate Series. If specified in the related Supplement for any Certificate Series, the Trustee shall authenticate Book-Entry Certificates that are issued upon original issuance thereof, upon the written order of the Seller, to a Clearing Agency
or its nominee as provided in Section 6.10 against payment of the purchase price thereof. If specified in the related Supplement for a Certificate Series, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver outside the United States the Global
Certificate that is issued upon original issuance thereof. 
 Section 6.3 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of
Certificates. 
 (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the office or agency to be maintained by a transfer agent and
registrar (the “Transfer Agent and Registrar”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.16, a register (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall provide for the registration of the Investor Certificates of each Certificate Series (unless otherwise provided in the related Supplement) and of transfers and exchanges of the Investor Certificates
as herein provided. First Union National Bank, is hereby initially appointed Transfer Agent and Registrar for the purposes of registering the Investor Certificates and transfers and exchanges of the Investor Certificates as herein provided. Any
reference in this Agreement to the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall include any co-transfer agent and co-registrar including, if and so long as any Series is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such exchange shall so require, a co-transfer
agent and co-registrar in Luxembourg, unless the context otherwise requires. The Trustee shall be permitted to resign as Transfer Agent and Registrar upon 30 days’ written notice to the Servicer. In the event that the Trustee shall no longer be
the Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Trustee shall appoint a successor Transfer Agent and Registrar. 
 The Trustee may revoke
such appointment, or any subsequent appointment, and remove the Transfer Agent and Registrar if the Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Transfer Agent and Registrar has failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
material respect. The Transfer Agent and Registrar shall be permitted to resign as Transfer Agent and Registrar upon 30 days’ notice to the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative; provided, that such
resignation shall not be effective and the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall continue to perform its duties as Transfer Agent and Registrar until the Trustee has appointed a successor Transfer Agent and Registrar reasonably acceptable to the
Seller. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Transfer Agent and
Registrar, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of like aggregate Undivided Trust Interests. Registered Certificates,
including Registered Certificates received in exchange for Bearer Certificates, may not be exchanged for Bearer Certificates. At the option of the Holder of a Bearer Certificate, subject to applicable

laws and regulations, Bearer Certificates may be exchanged for other Bearer Certificates or Registered Certificates (of the same Certificate Series) of authorized denominations of like aggregate
Undivided Trust Interests, upon surrender of the Bearer Certificates to be exchanged at an office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar located outside the United States. Each Bearer Certificate surrendered pursuant to this Section shall
have attached thereto all unmatured Coupons; provided, that any Bearer Certificate, so surrendered after the close of business on the Record Date preceding the relevant payment date after the expected final payment date need not have attached
the Coupon relating to such payment date (in each case as specified in the related Supplement). 
 At the option of an Investor
Certificateholder, Registered Certificates may be exchanged for other Registered Certificates of the same Certificate Series in authorized denominations of like aggregate Undivided Trust Interests in the Trust, upon surrender of the Registered
Certificates to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar maintained for such purpose. 
 Whenever any Investor Certificates of any Certificate Series are so surrendered for exchange, the Seller shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and (unless the Transfer Agent and Registrar is different than the Trustee, in which
case the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall) deliver (in the case of Bearer Certificates, outside the United States), the Investor Certificates of such Certificate Series which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every
Investor Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed by the
Certificateholder thereof or his attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing. 
 The preceding provisions of this
Section 6.3 notwithstanding, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Investor Certificate of any Certificate Series for a period of 15 days
preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Investor Certificates of such Certificate Series. 
 Unless otherwise
provided in the related Supplement, no service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates. 
 All Investor Certificates (together with any
Coupons) surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled by the Transfer Agent and Registrar and disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. The Trustee shall cancel and destroy any Global Certificate upon its
exchange in full for Definitive Euro-Certificates and shall deliver a certificate of destruction to the Seller. Such certificate shall also state that a certificate or certificates of a Foreign Clearing Agency to the effect referred to in
Section 6.13 was received with respect to each portion of the Global Certificate exchanged for Definitive Euro-Certificates. 
 The Seller shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as applicable, Bearer Certificates and Registered Certificates in such amounts and at such times as are necessary
to enable the Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under this Agreement and the Certificates.

 (b) Except as provided in Section 6.9 or in any Supplement, in no event shall
the Exchangeable Seller Certificate or any interest therein be transferred hereunder, in whole or in part to a person other than the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller, unless the Seller shall have consented in writing to such transfer and unless
the Trustee shall have received a Tax Opinion. 
 (c)(i) Registration of transfer of Investor Certificates containing a legend
substantially to the effect set forth on Exhibit H-1 shall be effected only if such transfer (x) is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or is exempt from the registration requirements under
the Securities Act, and (y) is made to a Person which is not an employee benefit plan, trust or account, including an individual retirement account, that is subject to ERISA or that is described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or an
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in such entity (a “Benefit Plan”). In the event that registration of a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the
registration requirements under the Securities Act, the transferor or the transferee shall deliver, at its expense, to the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee, an investment letter from the transferee, substantially in the form of the investment
and ERISA representation letter attached hereto as Exhibit H-2, and no registration of transfer shall be made until such letter is so delivered. 
 Investor Certificates issued upon registration or transfer of, or Investor Certificates issued in exchange for, Investor Certificates bearing the legend referred to above shall also bear such legend
unless the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar receive an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to each of them, to the effect that such legend may be removed. 
 Whenever an Investor Certificate containing the legend referred to above is presented to the Transfer Agent and Registrar for registration
of transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall promptly seek instructions from the Servicer regarding such transfer and shall be entitled to receive instructions signed by a Servicing Officer prior to registering any such transfer. The Seller
hereby agrees to indemnify the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee and to hold each of them harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with
actions taken or omitted by them in relation to any such instructions furnished pursuant to this clause (i). 
 (ii)
Registration or transfer of Investor Certificates containing a legend to the effect set forth in Exhibit H-3 shall be effected only if such transfer is made to a Person which is not a Benefit Plan. By accepting and holding any such
Investor Certificate, an Investor Certificateholder shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan. By acquiring any interest in a Book-Entry Certificate which contains such legend, a Certificate Owner shall be
deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan. 
  

 57 

 (iii) if so requested by the Seller, the Trustee will make available to any prospective
purchaser of Investor Certificates who so requests, a copy of a letter provided to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Seller relating to the transferability of any Series to a Benefit Plan. 
 (d) The Transfer Agent and Registrar shall maintain at its expense in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York and, if and so long as
any Certificate Series is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, Luxembourg shall maintain at Seller’s expense (and subject to this Section 6.3, if specified in the related Supplement for any Certificate Series, any other city
designated in such Supplement) an office or offices or an agency or agencies where Investor Certificates of such Certificate Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (except that Bearer Certificates may not be surrendered
for exchange at any such office or agency in the U.S.). 
 (e) Nothwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 6.3, Seller shall not execute, and (if given prior written notice by the Servicer of the inability of the Seller to execute any Subject Instrument by operation of this clause (e)) the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall not
register the transfer of, any Subject Instrument if after giving effect to the execution or transfer of such Subject Instrument, there would be more than 100 Private Holders. No transfer, assignment or other conveyance of, or sale of a participation
interest in, a Subject Instrument shall be permitted unless the Transfer Agent and Registrar is permitted to register the same in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. Additionally, no Subject Instrument, or portion thereof, shall be
transferred on or through (i) an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code and any proposed, temporary or final treasury regulation thereunder, including, without
limitation, an over-the-counter market or an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations or (ii) “secondary market” or “substantial equivalent thereof” within the meaning of
Section 7704(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any proposed, temporary or final treasury regulation thereunder, including a market wherein interests in the Trust are regularly quoted by any Person making a market in such interests and a
market wherein any Person regularly makes available bid or offer quotes with respect to interests in the Trust and stands ready to effect buy or sell transactions at the quoted prices for itself or on behalf of others. Any attempted transfer,
assignment, conveyance, participation or subdivision in contravention of the preceding restrictions, as reasonably determined by the Seller, shall be void ab initio and the purported transferor, seller or subdivider of such Subject Instrument shall
be treated as the Holder of such Subject Instrument for all purposes of this Agreement. 
 Section 6.4 Mutilated,
Destroyed, or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate (together, in the case of Bearer Certificates, with all unmatured Coupons (if any) appertaining thereto) is surrendered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar, or the Transfer
Agent and Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them
to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Seller shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and (unless the Transfer Agent and Registrar
is different from the Trustee, in which case the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall) deliver (in

  

 58 

 
compliance with applicable law, and in the case of Bearer Certificates, outside the United States), in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of like tenor and aggregate Undivided Trust Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 6.4, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. 
 Section 6.5 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Registered Certificate for registration of transfer, the
Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Registered Certificate is registered as the owner of such Registered Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to any Supplement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and treat the bearer of a Bearer Certificate or Coupon as the owner of such Bearer Certificate or Coupon for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the terms
of the applicable Supplement and for all purposes whatsoever; and in any such case neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided,
however, for purposes of voting or the giving of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Investor Certificates owned by the Originator, the Seller, the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Investor Certificates which a
Responsible Officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Investor Certificates so owned that have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded as outstanding, if the pledgee establishes to
the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Investor Certificates and that the pledgee is not the Originator, the Seller, the Servicer or an Affiliate thereof. 
 Section 6.6 Appointment of Paying Agent. 
 (a) The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Investor Certificateholders from the appropriate account or accounts maintained for the benefit of Investor Certificateholders as specified in any
Supplement. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from such appropriate account or accounts for the purpose of making distributions referred to above and shall report such withdrawals to the Trustee. The Trustee (or the
Servicer if the Trustee is the Paying Agent) may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent, if the Trustee (or the Servicer if the Trustee is the Paying Agent) determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform
its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or for other good cause. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Trustee and any co-paying agent chosen by the Seller and acceptable to the Trustee, including, if and so long as any
Certificate Series is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such exchange so requires, a co-paying agent in Luxembourg or another Western European city. The Trustee shall

  

 59 

 
be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Servicer. In the event that the Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Trustee shall appoint a successor
to act as Paying Agent who shall be acceptable to the Seller and the Trustee. The provisions of Sections 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3 shall apply to the Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Trustee shall
act as Paying Agent. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise. 
 (b) The Trustee shall cause the Paying Agent (other than itself) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent will
hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Investor Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Investor Certificateholders, and shall agree, and if
the Trustee is the Paying Agent it hereby agrees, that it shall comply with all requirements of the Code regarding the withholding by the Trustee of payments in respect of federal income taxes due from Certificate Owners (consistent with the
treatment of the Investor Certificates as debt instruments for federal income tax purposes). 
 Section 6.7 Access to
List of Certificateholders’ and Receivables Purchasers’ Names and Addresses. The Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished by the Transfer Agent and Registrar to the Servicer or the Paying Agent, within five Business Days after
receipt by the Trustee of a request therefor from the Servicer or the Paying Agent, respectively, in writing, a list in such form as the Servicer or the Paying Agent may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Registered
Certificateholders and Receivables Purchasers as of the most recent Record Date. Unless otherwise provided in the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests aggregating
not less than 10% of the Undivided Trust Interest of any Certificate Series or Receivables Purchasers whose Receivables Purchase Interest evidences not less than 10% of the Receivables Purchase Interest of any Receivables Purchase Series or any
Purchaser Representative (the “Applicants”) may apply in writing to the Trustee, and if such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Investor Certificateholders of any Certificate Series and other
Receivables Purchasers of any Receivables Purchase Series with respect to their rights under this Agreement and is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee, after having been adequately
indemnified by such Applicants for its costs and expenses, shall afford or shall cause the Transfer Agent and Registrar to afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent list of Registered Certificateholders or
Receivables Purchasers of such Series or all outstanding Series, as applicable, held by the Trustee and shall give the Servicer notice that such request has been made, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application. The Trustee
shall keep in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of Certificateholders and Receivables Purchasers. Every Registered Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Registered Certificate, and every
Receivables Purchaser, by its purchase of a Receivables Purchase Interest, agrees with the Trustee that neither the Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, nor any of their respective agents shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure
of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Registered Certificateholders or the Receivables Purchasers hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was obtained.

 Section 6.8 Authenticating Agent. 
 (a) The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents with respect to the Certificates which shall be authorized to act on behalf of
the Trustee in authenticating the Certificates in connection with the issuance, delivery, registration of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Certificates. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the
Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the Seller. 
 (b) Any institution succeeding to the
corporate agency business of an authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent. 
 (c) An authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Seller. The Trustee may
at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Seller. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an
authenticating agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Trustee or the Seller, the Trustee promptly may appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested
with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless acceptable to the Trustee and the Seller.

 (d) The Trustee agrees to pay each authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this
Section 6.8, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed and the Servicer shall reimburse the Trustee for such reasonable payments actually made, subject to the provisions of Section 11.5. 
 (e) The provisions of Sections 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent.

  

 61 

 (f) Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section 6.8, the Certificates may
have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 
 This is one of the certificates described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

 Section 6.9
Tender of Exchangeable Seller Certificate. 
 (a) Upon any Exchange (as defined below) the Trustee shall issue to the
Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate under Section 6.1, for execution and redelivery to the Trustee for authentication under Section 6.2, one or more new Series of Investor Certificates. Any such Series of Investor
Certificates shall be substantially in the form specified in the related Supplement and shall bear, upon its face, the designation for the Certificate Series to which it belongs, as selected by the Seller. Except as specified in any Supplement for a
related Certificate Series, all Investor Certificates of any Certificate Series shall rank pari passu and be equally and ratably entitled as provided herein to the benefits hereof (except that the Enhancement and any Series Accounts provided
for any Certificate Series shall not be available for any other Certificate Series) without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time or times of authentication and delivery, all in accordance with the terms and provisions of
this Agreement and the related Supplement. 
 (b) The Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate may tender the Exchangeable
Seller Certificate to the Trustee in exchange for (i) one or more newly issued Series of Investor Certificates and (ii) a reissued Exchangeable Seller Certificate (any such tender, a “Seller Exchange”). In addition, to the
extent permitted for any Series of Investor Certificates as specified in the related Supplement, the Investor Certificateholders of such Certificate Series may tender their Investor Certificates and the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate
may tender the Exchangeable Seller Certificate to the Trustee pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in such Supplement in exchange for (i) one or more newly issued Series of Investor Certificates and (ii) a reissued Exchangeable
Seller Certificate (an “Investor Exchange”). The Seller Exchange and Investor Exchange are referred to collectively herein as an “Exchange.” The Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate may perform an Exchange
by notifying the Trustee in writing at least five days in advance (an “Exchange Notice”) of the date upon which the Exchange is to occur (an “Exchange Date”). Any Exchange Notice shall state the designation of any
Certificate Series to be issued on the Exchange Date and, with respect to each such Certificate Series: (a) its Initial Investor Interest (or the method for calculating such Initial Investor Interest), which at any time may not be greater than
the current principal amount of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate at such time, (b) its Certificate Rate (or the method for allocating interest payments or other cash flows to such Certificate Series), if any, and (c) the Enhancement
Provider, if any, with respect to such Certificate Series. The Seller shall also notify each Purchaser Representative of an Exchange in writing at least five days in advance of the date upon which the Exchange is to occur specifying the Exchange
Date, the designation of any Certificate Series to be issued on the Exchange Date and the Initial Investor Interest (or the method for calculating such Initial Investor Interest) of such Certificate Series. On the Exchange Date, the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver any such Series of Investor Certificates only upon delivery

  

 62 

 
to it of the following: (a) a Supplement satisfying the criteria set forth in subsection 6.9(c) executed by the Seller and specifying the Principal Terms of such Certificate
Series, (b) the applicable Enhancement, if any, (c) the agreement, if any, pursuant to which the Enhancement Provider agrees to provide the Enhancement, if any, (d) written confirmation that the Rating Agency Condition has been
satisfied with respect to the Exchange, (e) an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller, a copy of which shall be delivered to each Purchaser Representative, that on the Exchange Date, after giving effect to the Exchange, the Seller Interest
will be at least equal to the Aggregate Minimum Seller Interest and the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables will be at least equal to the Minimum Aggregate Principal Receivables, and (f) the existing Exchangeable Seller Certificate or
applicable Investor Certificates, as the case may be. If any Certificate Series or Receivables Purchase Series is outstanding, it is a condition to the issuance of any newly created Series of Investor Certificates that the Trustee and (if any such
outstanding Certificate Series is rated) each Rating Agency shall have received an Opinion of Counsel that, (i) the issuance of such new Series of Investor Certificates will not cause the Trust to be treated as an association (or publicly
traded partnership) taxable as a corporation and (ii) the issuance of the newly issued Series of Investor Certificates will not adversely affect the federal income tax characterization of any outstanding Investor Certificates or Receivables
Purchase Interests. Upon satisfaction of such conditions, the Trustee shall cancel the existing Exchangeable Seller Certificate or applicable Investor Certificates, as the case may be, and issue, as provided above, such Series of Investor
Certificates and a new Exchangeable Seller Certificate, dated the Exchange Date. There is no limit to the number of Exchanges that may be performed under this Agreement. 
 (c) In conjunction with an Exchange, the parties hereto shall execute a Supplement, which shall specify the relevant terms with respect to any newly issued Series of Investor Certificates, which may
include without limitation: (i) its name or designation, (ii) an Initial Investor Interest and Series Investor Interest or the method of calculating the Initial Investor Interest or the Series Investor Interest, as the case may be,
(iii) the Certificate Rate (or formula for the determination thereof), (iv) the Closing Date, (v) the rating agency or agencies rating such Certificate Series, (vi) the interest payment date or dates and the date or dates from
which interest shall accrue, (vii) the name of the Clearing Agency, if any, (viii) the method of allocating Collections with respect to Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables and Loss Amounts for such Certificate Series and the
method by which the principal amount of Investor Certificates of such Certificate Series shall amortize or accrete, (ix) the names of any accounts to be used by such Certificate Series and the terms governing the operation of any such accounts,
(x) the Investor Monthly Servicing Fee, (xi) the Minimum Seller Interest (if any), (xii) the Enhancement Provider, if applicable, and the terms of any Enhancement with respect to such Certificate Series, (xiii) the base rate
applicable to such Certificate Series, (xiv) the terms on which the Certificates of such Series may be repurchased or remarketed to other investors, (xv) the Series Termination Date, (xvi) any deposit into any account provided for
such Certificate Series, (xvii) the priority of such Certificate Series with respect to any other Series, (xviii) the rights, if any, of the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate that have been transferred to the holders of such
Certificate Series, (xix) the Pool Factor, (xx) the Minimum Aggregate Principal Receivables, (xxi) whether such Certificate Series will be part of a Group, and (xxii) any other relevant terms (including whether or not such
Certificate Series will be

  

 63 

 
pledged as collateral for the issuance of any other securities, including commercial paper) (all such terms, the “Principal Terms” of such Certificate Series). The terms of such
Supplement may modify or amend the terms of this Agreement solely as applied to such new Certificate Series. 
 Section 6.10 Book-Entry Certificates. Unless otherwise provided in any related Supplement, the Investor Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of typewritten Certificates representing Book-Entry
Certificates, to be delivered to the depository specified in such Supplement (the “Depository”) which shall be the Clearing Agency by or on behalf of such Certificate Series. The Investor Certificates of each Certificate Series
shall, unless otherwise provided in the related Supplement, initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency. No Certificate Owner shall receive a definitive certificate representing such
Certificate Owner’s interest in the related Series of Investor Certificates, except as provided in Section 6.12. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Investor Certificates of any Certificate Series (“Definitive
Certificates”) have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 6.12: 
 (i) the
provisions of this Section 6.10 shall be in full force and effect with respect to each such Certificate Series; 
 (ii) the Seller, the Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all purposes (including the
making of distributions on the Investor Certificates of each such Certificate Series) as the authorized representatives of the Certificate Owners; 
 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 6.10 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall control with respect to
each such Certificate Series; and 
 (iv) the rights of Certificate Owners of each such Certificate Series shall
be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and the applicable Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency
Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement applicable to a Certificate Series, unless and until Definitive Certificates of such Certificate Series are issued pursuant to Section 6.12, the initial Clearing Agency will make
book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the Investor Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants. 
 Section 6.11 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this
Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 6.12, the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Investor
Certificates to the Clearing Agency for distribution to Holders of Investor Certificates. 
  

 64 

 Section 6.12 Definitive Certificates. If (i) (A) the Seller advises
the Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency for any Certificate Series is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities under the applicable Depository Agreement, and (B) the Trustee or the Seller is unable to locate
a qualified successor, (ii) the Seller, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to any Certificate Series or (iii) after the occurrence of a
Servicer Default, Certificate Owners of a Certificate Series representing beneficial interests aggregating more than 66-2/3% of the Investor Interest of such Certificate Series advise the Trustee and the applicable Clearing Agency through the
applicable Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the applicable Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners of
such Certificate Series, through the applicable Clearing Agency Participants, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners of such Certificate Series requesting the same. Upon surrender
to the Trustee of the Investor Certificates of such Certificate Series by the applicable Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the applicable Clearing Agency for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive
Certificates of such Certificate Series. Neither the Seller nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Certificates of such Certificate Series, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the applicable Clearing Agency shall cease and the functions relating to registration, transfers and payment contained in
Article VI hereof shall be performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates of such Certificate Series as
Certificateholders of such Certificate Series hereunder. 
 Section 6.13 Global Certificate; Exchange Date.

 (a) If specified in the related Supplement for any Series, the Investor Certificates for such Series will initially be issued
in the form of a single temporary global Certificate (the “Global Certificate”) in bearer form, without interest coupons, in the denomination of the entire aggregate principal amount of such Series and substantially in the form set
forth in the exhibit with respect thereto attached to the related Supplement. The Global Certificate will be executed by the Seller and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same effect
as the Definitive Certificates. The Global Certificate may be exchanged as described below for Bearer or Registered Certificates in definitive form (the “Definitive Euro-Certificates”). 
 (b) The Manager shall, upon its determination of the date of completion of the distribution of the Investor Certificates of such Series, so
advise the Trustee, the Seller, the Depositaries, and each Foreign Clearing Agency forthwith. Without unnecessary delay, but in any event not prior to the Exchange Date, the Seller will execute and deliver to the Trustee at its designated agent
outside the United States definitive Bearer Certificates in an aggregate principal amount equal to the entire aggregate principal amount of such Series. All Bearer Certificates so issued and delivered will have Coupons attached. The Global
Certificate may be exchanged for

  

 65 

 
an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Euro-Certificates only on or after the Exchange Date. An investor that is a U.S. Person may exchange the portion of the Global Certificate
beneficially owned by it only for an equal aggregate principal amount of Registered Certificates bearing the applicable legend set forth in the form of Registered Certificates attached to the related Supplement and having a minimum denomination of
$500,000, which may be in temporary form if the Seller so elects. The Seller may waive the $500,000 minimum denomination requirement if it so elects. Upon any demand for exchange for Definitive Euro-Certificates in accordance with this paragraph,
the Seller shall cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver the Definitive Euro-Certificates to the Holder (x) outside the United States, in the case of Bearer Certificates, and (y) according to the instructions of the Holder, in the
case of Registered Certificates, but in either case only upon presentation to the Trustee of a written statement substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 with respect to the Global Certificate or portion thereof being exchanged, Signed
by a Foreign Clearing Agency and dated on the Exchange Date or a subsequent date, to the effect that it has received in writing or by tested telex a certification substantially in the form of (i) in the case of beneficial ownership of the
Global Certificate or a portion thereof being exchanged by a United States investor pursuant to the second preceding sentence, the certificate in the form of Exhibit I-2 signed by the Manager which sold the relevant Certificates or
(ii) in all other cases, the certificate in the form of Exhibit I-3, the certificate referred to in this clause (ii) being dated on the earlier of the first actual payment of interest in respect of such Certificates and
the date of the delivery of such Certificate in definitive form. Upon receipt of such certification, the Trustee shall cause the Global Certificate to be endorsed in accordance with paragraph (d) below. Any exchange as provided in this
Section shall be made free of charge to the Holders and the beneficial owners of the Global Certificate and to the beneficial owners of the Definitive Euro-Certificates issued in exchange, except that a person receiving Definitive Euro-Certificates
must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such person does not receive such Definitive Euro-Certificates in person at the offices of a Foreign Clearing Agency. 
 (c) The delivery to the Trustee by a Foreign Clearing Agency of any written statement referred to above may be relied upon by the Seller and
the Trustee as conclusive evidence that a corresponding certification or certifications has or have been delivered to such Foreign Clearing Agency pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 (d) Upon any such exchange of all or a portion of the Global Certificate for a Definitive Euro-Certificate or Certificates, such Global
Certificate shall be endorsed by or on behalf of the Trustee to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Definitive Euro-Certificates. Until so exchanged in full, such Global
Certificate shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as Definitive Euro-Certificates authenticated and delivered hereunder except that the beneficial owners of such Global Certificate shall not be entitled to
receive payments of interest on the Certificates until they have exchanged their beneficial interests in such Global Certificate for Definitive Euro-Certificates.

 Section 6.14 Meetings of Certificateholders. 
 (a) If at the time any Bearer Certificates are issued and outstanding with respect to any Series to which any meeting described below
relates, the Servicer or the Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Investor Certificateholders of any Certificate Series or of all Certificate Series, to be held at such time and at such place as the Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be,
shall determine, for the purpose of approving a modification of or amendment to, or obtaining a waiver of any covenant or condition set forth in, this Agreement, any Supplement or the Investor Certificates or of taking any other action permitted to
be taken by Investor Certificateholders hereunder or under any Supplement. Notice of any meeting of Investor Certificateholders, setting forth the time and place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting,

of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, commence or have commenced against it (unless dismissed within thirty days) as debtor a proceeding under any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make any assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily
suspend payment of its obligations; 
 then, so long as such Servicer Default shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee, or the Holders
of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests and Purchaser Representatives of Receivables Purchase Series aggregating more than 66-2/3% of the Aggregate Investor/Purchaser Interest, by notice then given in writing to the Servicer,
and each Purchaser Representative (and to the Trustee if given by the Investor Certificateholders or the Purchaser Representatives) (a “Servicer Termination Notice”), may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer
as Servicer under this Agreement. The Trustee shall promptly notify any Enhancement Provider of any such Servicer Default. 
 After receipt by the Servicer of such Servicer Termination Notice, and on the date that a Successor Servicer shall have been appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.2, all authority and power of the Servicer under this
Agreement shall pass to and be vested in a Successor Servicer; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered (upon the failure of the Servicer to cooperate) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments upon the failure of the Servicer to execute or deliver such documents or instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such transfer of servicing rights and obligations. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee and such Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing

  

 78 

 
hereunder including, without limitation, the transfer to such Successor Servicer of all authority of the Servicer to service the Receivables provided for under this Agreement, including, without
limitation, all authority over all Collections which shall on the date of transfer be held by the Servicer for deposit, or which have been deposited by the Servicer, in the Collection Account or any Series Account, or which shall thereafter be
received with respect to the Receivables, and in assisting the Successor Servicer in enforcing all rights to Insurance Proceeds applicable to the Trust. The Servicer shall promptly transfer its electronic records or electronic copies thereof
relating to the Receivables to the Successor Servicer in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request and shall promptly transfer to the Successor Servicer all other records, correspondence and documents necessary for the
continued servicing of the Receivables in the manner and at such times as the Successor Servicer shall reasonably request. To the extent that compliance with this Section 10.1 shall require the Servicer to disclose to the Successor
Servicer information of any kind which the Servicer reasonably deems to be confidential, the Successor Servicer shall be required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality agreements as the Servicer shall deem necessary to protect
its interests. The Servicer shall, on the date of any servicing transfer, transfer all of its rights and obligations under any Enhancement with respect to any Series to the Successor Servicer. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delay in or failure of performance referred to in subsection 10.1(a), for a cumulative period
of ten Business Days, or under subsection 10.1(b) or (c), for a cumulative period of sixty Business Days, shall not constitute a Servicer Default if such delay or failure could not be prevented by the exercise of reasonable
diligence by the Servicer and such delay or failure was caused by an act of God or the public enemy, acts of declared or undeclared war, public disorder, rebellion, riot or sabotage, epidemics, landslides, lightning, fire, hurricanes, tornadoes,
earthquakes, nuclear disasters or meltdowns, floods, power outages or similar causes. The preceding sentence shall not relieve the Servicer from using its best efforts to perform its obligations in a timely manner in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and the Servicer shall provide the Trustee, any Enhancement Provider, the Seller, and each Purchaser Representative with an Officer’s Certificate giving prompt notice of such failure or delay by it, together with a description of
the cause of such failure or delay and its efforts so to perform its obligations. 
 Section 10.2 Trustee to Act;
Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) On and after the occurrence of a Servicer Default pursuant to Section 10.1 or a
resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.5, the Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing functions under this Agreement until the date of the appointment of a Successor Servicer hereunder. The Trustee shall notify each
Rating Agency of such removal of the Servicer. The Trustee shall, as promptly as possible after the giving of a Servicer Termination Notice appoint a successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”), and such Successor Servicer shall
accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Trustee. Purchaser Representatives for each Receivables Purchase Series and each Enhancement Provider, if any, must consent in writing to any Successor Servicer. The Trustee
may obtain bids from any potential successor servicer. Any Successor Servicer shall not be an Affiliate of any Purchaser Representative so long as any Certificate Series is outstanding. If (i) the Trustee is unable to

  

 79 

 
obtain any bids from any potential successor servicer, or if no such bid is acceptable to Purchaser Representatives representing each Receivable Purchase Series, and (ii) the Servicer
delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that it cannot in good faith cure the Servicer Default which gave rise to a transfer of servicing, and if the Trustee is legally unable to act as Successor Servicer, then the
Trustee shall notify each Investor Certificateholder, each Purchaser Representative and any Enhancement Provider of the proposed sale of the Receivables and shall provide each Receivables Purchaser and Enhancement Provider an opportunity to bid on
the Receivables and shall offer the Seller the right of first refusal to purchase the Receivables on terms equivalent to the best purchase offer as determined by the Trustee, but in no event less than an amount equal to the Aggregate
Investor/Purchaser Interest an the date of such purchase (including, with respect to any Series, any unreimbursed Loss Amounts allocated to such Series to the extent such amounts are required to be reimbursed pursuant to the related Supplement or
Receivables Purchase Agreement) plus all interest accrued but unpaid on all of the outstanding Investor Certificates at the applicable Certificate Rate, all interest accrued but unpaid with respect to all outstanding Receivables Purchase
Interests at the applicable rate, and all fees and expenses under any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement due but unpaid through the date of such purchase; provided, however, that if the short-term deposits or long-term
unsecured debt obligations of the Seller (or if neither such deposits nor such obligations of the Seller are rated by Moody’s, if Moody’s is a Rating Agency with respect to any Certificate Series outstanding, then of the holding company of
the Seller so long as such holding company shall be Charming Shoppes, Inc.) are not rated at the time of such purchase at least P-3 or Baa-3, respectively, by Moody’s, if Moody’s is a Rating Agency with respect to any Certificate Series
outstanding, no such purchase by the Seller shall occur unless the Seller shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee that such purchase would not constitute a fraudulent conveyance of the Seller. The proceeds of such
sale shall be deposited in the Collection Account or any Series Account, as provided in the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, for distribution to the Investor Certificateholders of each outstanding Certificate Series and the
Receivables Purchasers of each outstanding Receivables Purchase Series, pursuant to Section 12.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint as the Successor
Servicer hereunder any established financial institution having, in the case of an entity that is subject to risk-based capital adequacy requirements, risk-based capital of at least $50,000,000 or, in the case of an entity that is not subject to
risk-based capital requirements, a net worth of not less than $50,000,000, and whose regular business includes the servicing of credit card receivables. 
 (b) Upon its appointment, the Successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer. Any Successor Servicer, by
its acceptance of its appointment, will automatically agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of each Supplement, Receivables Purchase Agreement and Enhancement. 
  

 80 

 (c) In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee shall be entitled to
such compensation, or may make such arrangements for the compensation of the Successor Servicer out of Collections, as it and such Successor Servicer shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the
Monthly Servicing Fee permitted to the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.2. The Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate agrees that if the Servicer is terminated hereunder, it will agree to deposit a portion of the Collections in
respect of Finance Charge Receivables that it is entitled to receive pursuant to Article IV to pay its share of the compensation of the Successor Servicer. 
 (d) All authority and power granted to the Successor Servicer under this Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 12.1 and shall pass
to and be vested in the Seller and, without limitation, the Seller is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Successor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do and
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such transfer of servicing rights. The Successor Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Seller in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of
the Successor Servicer to conduct servicing on the Receivables. The Successor Servicer shall transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Seller in such electronic form as the Seller may reasonably request and shall transfer
all other records, correspondence and documents to the Seller in the manner and at such times as the Seller shall reasonably request. To the extent that compliance with this Section 10.2 shall require the Successor Servicer to disclose
to the Seller information of any kind which the Successor Servicer deems to be confidential, the Seller shall be required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality agreements as the Successor Servicer shall deem necessary to protect
its interests. 
 Section 10.3 Notification of Servicer Default and Successor Servicer. Within two Business Days
after the Servicer becomes aware of any Servicer Default, the Servicer shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Trustee, each Purchaser Representative, each Rating Agency and each Enhancement Provider. Upon any termination or appointment of a
Successor Servicer pursuant to this Article X, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to each Purchaser Representative, each Rating Agency and each Enhancement Provider. 
 Section 10.4 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests aggregating not
less than 66-2/3% of the Investor Interest of any Certificate Series outstanding, or any Purchaser Representative for any Receivables Purchase Series, adversely affected by a default by the Servicer or the Seller in the performance of its
obligations hereunder may waive such default and its consequences on behalf of such Series, except a default in the failure to make any required deposits or payment of interest or principal relating to such Series pursuant to Article IV
which default does not result from the failure of the Paying Agent to perform its obligations to make any required deposits or payments of interest and principal in accordance with Article IV. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such
default shall cease to exist, and any default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except
to the extent expressly so waived. 
  

 81 

 ARTICLE XI 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 11.1 Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of any Servicer Default of which it has actual knowledge and after the curing of all Servicer
Defaults which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, each Supplement and each Receivables Purchase Agreement. If a Responsible Officer has received written notice
that a Servicer Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (b) Subject to
subsection 11.1(a), no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided,
however, that: 
 (i) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in
good faith in accordance with the direction of Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests aggregating more than 50% of the Investor Interest of any Certificate Series or any Purchaser Representative, relating to the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee in relation to the related Series, under this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase
Agreement; and 
 (iii) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure by the Servicer referred
to in Section 10.1 unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice of such failure from the Servicer or any Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided
Trust Interests aggregating not less than 10% of the Investor Interest of any Certificate Series adversely affected thereby, any Purchaser Representative or any Enhancement Provider. 
 (c) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of
its duties under this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, unless adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is reasonably assured and provided to it, and none of
the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase
Agreement except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables
Purchase Agreement. 
  

 82 

 (d) Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement and not prohibited by any
Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trustee shall take no action reasonably likely to impair the interests of the Trust in any Receivable now existing or hereafter created or to impair the value of any Receivable now existing or
hereafter created. 
 (e) Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and each Supplement and Receivables Purchase Agreement,
the Trustee shall have no power to vary the corpus of the Trust including, without limitation, the power to (i) accept any substitute obligation for a Receivable initially assigned to the Trust under Section 2.1 or 2.6
hereof, (ii) add any other investment, obligation or security to the Trust, except for an addition permitted under Section 2.6, (iii) withdraw from the Trust any Receivables, except for a withdrawal permitted under
Section 2.7, 9.2, 10.2, 12.1 or 12.2 or Article IV or subsections 2.4(d) or 2.4(e), or (iv) Convey any interest in Receivables, except pursuant to a
Receivables Purchase Agreement. 
 (f) In the event that the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall fail to
perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required to be performed by the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be obligated promptly to perform such
obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required. 
 (g) If the Seller has agreed to transfer any of its credit card
receivables (other than the Receivables) to another Person, upon the written request of the Seller, and 10 Business Days’ notice to each Purchaser Representative, the Trustee shall enter into such intercreditor agreements with the transferee of
such receivables as are customary and necessary to identify separately the rights, if any, of the Trust and such other Person in the Seller’s credit card receivables, and shall provide to each Purchaser Representative a copy of each such
intercreditor agreement; provided, that the Trustee shall not be required to enter into any intercreditor agreement which could adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders, the Receivables Purchasers, or any Enhancement Provider,
and, upon the request of the Trustee, any Purchaser Representative or any Enhancement Provider, the Seller shall deliver to it an Opinion of Counsel (with a copy to each Purchaser Representative) on any matters relating to such intercreditor
agreement, reasonably requested by the Trustee, any Purchaser Representative or any Enhancement Provider. 
 (h) The Trustee
shall notify each Purchaser Representative and Enhancement Provider of any Early Amortization Event of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, promptly upon obtaining such knowledge. 
 Section 11.2 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.1 or in any
Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement: 
 (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in acting, or
in refraining from acting, in accord with any written assignment of Receivables in Additional

  

 83 

 
Accounts, the initial report, the Monthly Servicer Report, the annual Servicer’s certificate, the monthly payment instructions, the monthly Certificateholder’s statement, any
resolution, Officer’s Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented to it pursuant to this Agreement by the proper party or parties; provided, that if Spirit of America National Bank is not the Servicer at the time the Trustee receives any such paper or document, the Trustee shall
provide a copy of such document to the Seller; 
 (b) the Trustee may consult with counsel, and any Opinion of Counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel; 
 (c) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, any Supplement, any
Receivables Purchase Agreement or any Enhancement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the Investor Certificateholders or any Purchaser Representative unless
such Investor Certificateholders or Purchaser Representative shall have offered and provided to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained
herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon the occurrence of any Servicer Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables
Purchase Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of its own affairs; 
 (d) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement; 
 (e) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts of matters stated in any written assignment of Receivables in Additional Accounts, the initial report, the Monthly Servicer
Report, the annual Servicer’s certificate, the monthly payment instructions and notification to the Trustee, the monthly Certificateholder’s statement, any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Trust Interests aggregating more than 50% of the Investor Interest, any Purchaser Representative
or Enhancement Provider for any Series, in each case that could be adversely affected thereby if the Trustee does not perform such acts; 
 (f) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian to the extent not otherwise prohibited
by any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, attorney or custodian appointed with reasonable care by it hereunder; and 
  

 84 

 (g) except as may be required by subsection 11.1(a), the Trustee shall not be
required to make any initial or periodic examination of any documents or records related to the Receivables or the Accounts for the purpose of establishing the presence or absence of defects or the compliance by the Seller with its representations
and warranties or for any other purpose. 
 Section 11.3 Trustee Not Liable for Recitals in Certificates. The
Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates). Except as set forth in Section 11.15, the Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates) or of any Receivable or related document. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall not
be accountable for the use or application by the Seller of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Seller in respect of the Receivables or deposited in or withdrawn from
the Collection Account, the Excess Funding Account or any Series Account (or any other account hereafter established to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the terms of this Agreement) by the Servicer. 
 Section 11.4 Trustee May Own Certificates and Purchase Receivables. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may
become the owner or pledgee of Investor Certificates, or may purchase Receivables Purchase Interests, with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Trustee. 
 Section 11.5 The Servicer to Pay Trustee’s Fees and Expenses. The Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive
reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by it in the execution of the Trust hereby created and in the exercise and
performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and the Servicer shall pay or reimburse the Trustee (without reimbursement from the Collection Account, the Excess Funding Account, any Series Account or otherwise) upon its
request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct and except as provided in the following sentence. If the Trustee is appointed Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 10.2, the provisions of this Section 11.5 shall not apply to expenses, disbursements and
advances made or incurred by the Trustee in its capacity as Successor Servicer. 
 The obligations of the Servicer under this
Section 11.5 shall survive the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Section 11.6 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee hereunder (or, alternatively, a Person which is the direct or indirect parent corporation of the Trustee) shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least Baa3 by Moody’s and BBB- by Standard &

  

 85 

 
Poor’s, having, in the case of an entity that is subject to risk-based capital adequacy requirements, risk-based capital of at least $50,000,000 or, in the case of an entity that is not
subject to risk-based capital adequacy requirements, a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and, prior to its appointment hereunder, must be acceptable to each
Purchaser Representative. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section 11.6, the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 11.6, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 11.7. 
 Section 11.7 Resignation or Removal of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee may
at any time resign and be discharged from the Trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Seller, the Servicer, each Enhancement Provider, the Rating Agencies and each Purchaser Representative. Upon receiving such notice of
resignation, the Servicer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. Any successor Trustee shall not
be an Affiliate of any Purchaser Representative so long as any Certificate Series is outstanding. The Servicer shall deliver a copy of such instrument to each Purchaser Representative. Any such appointment shall be subject to the prior written
consent of each Purchaser Representative. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, upon notice to the Seller, the Servicer and each
Purchaser Representative, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. 
 (b) If
at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Seller, the Servicer or any Purchaser Representative, or if at any
time the Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property
or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Seller, the Servicer or any Purchaser Representative may, but shall not be required to, upon 10 days’ prior written notice to the others, remove the Trustee and
then the Servicer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee. Any successor Trustee shall not be an
Affiliate of any Purchaser Representative so long as any Certificate Series is outstanding. The Servicer shall deliver a copy of such instrument to each Purchaser Representative. Any such appointment shall be subject to the prior written consent of
the Servicer, each Purchaser Representative and each Enhancement Provider. 
  

 86 

 (c) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.7 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 11.8 hereof and any liability of the Trustee arising hereunder
shall survive such appointment of a successor trustee. 
 Section 11.8 Successor Trustee. 
 (a) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 11.7 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Seller, the
Servicer, each Purchaser Representative and its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver to
the successor trustee all documents and statements held by it hereunder, and the Seller and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments requested by any Purchaser Representative or otherwise required or contemplated hereunder
or under any Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder and under each
Supplement and Receivables Purchase Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein and therein. 
 (b) No
successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 11.8 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.6 hereof. 
 (c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 11.8, such successor trustee shall mail
notice of such succession hereunder to each Purchaser Representative, Rating Agency and Enhancement Provider and to all Investor Certificateholders at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. 
 Section 11.9 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it
may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.6 hereof without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. 
 Section 11.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Trustee shall

  

 87 

 
have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of
the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 11.10, such
powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 11.6
and no notice to Certificateholders, Receivables Purchasers or any Purchaser Representatives of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 11.8 hereof. 
 (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions
and conditions: 
 (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be
conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such
act), except to the extent that under any laws of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or
co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee; 
 (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable
by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and 
 (iii) the Trustee may at any time accept
the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. 
 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the
Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the
conditions of this Article XI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Servicer and each Purchaser Representative. 
 (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect to this Agreement on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent
permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee. 
  

 88 

 Section 11.11 Tax Return. In the event the Trust shall be required to file tax

 TERMINATION 
 Section 12.1 Termination of Trust. 
 (a) The Trust and the respective obligations and responsibilities of
the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to Receivables Purchasers and Certificateholders as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate, except with respect to the duties
described in Sections 7.4, 8.4 and 11.5 and subsection 12.3(b), on the Trust Termination Date; provided, however, that the Trust shall not terminate on the date specified in
clause (b)(i) of the definition of “Trust Termination Date” if each of the Servicer and the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate notify the Trustee in writing, not later than 5 Business Days preceding such date, that
they desire that the Trust not terminate on such date, which notice (such notice, a “Trust Extension”) shall specify the date on which the Trust shall terminate (such date, the “Extended Trust Termination Date”);
provided, however, that the Extended Trust Termination Date shall be not later than December 24, 2007. The Servicer and the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate may, on any date following the Trust Extension, so long as
no Certificate Series is outstanding and no Receivables Purchase Interests are outstanding, deliver a notice in writing to the Trustee changing the Extended Trust Termination Date. 
 (b) In the event that (i) the Trust has not terminated by the last Distribution Date occurring in the second month preceding the Trust
Termination Date, and (ii) (A) the Investor Interest and, if applicable, the Enhancement Invested Amount of any Certificate Series or the Receivables Purchase Interest of any Receivables Purchase Series (after giving effect to all
transfers, withdrawals, deposits and drawings to occur on such date and the payment of principal on any Series of Certificates or with respect to any Receivables Purchase Interest to be made on the related Distribution Date during such month
pursuant to Article IV, any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement) are greater than zero or (B) Loss Amounts allocated to any Series to the extent such amounts can be reimbursed pursuant to the related Supplement or
Receivables Purchase Agreement remain unreimbursed, or (C) any party to a Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement is owed accrued interest, fees or expenses, the Servicer shall sell within 30 days after such Distribution Date all the
Receivables. The proceeds of any sale shall be treated as Collections on the Receivables and shall be allocated and deposited in accordance with Article IV, each Supplement and each Receivables Purchase Agreement;

  

 92 

 
provided, however, that the Trustee shall determine conclusively in its sole discretion the amount of such proceeds which are allocable to Finance Charge Receivables and the amount of
such proceeds which are allocable to Principal Receivables. During such thirty day period, the Servicer shall continue to collect payments on the Receivables and allocate and deposit such payments in accordance with the provisions of
Article IV. 
 (c) All principal, interest, fees and expenses with respect to any Series shall be due and payable no
later than the applicable Series Termination Date. Unless otherwise provided in a Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, in the event that the Investor Interest and, if applicable, the Enhancement Invested Amount of any Certificate Series, or
any Receivables Purchase Interest is greater than zero on its Series Termination Date (after giving effect to all transfers, withdrawals, deposits and drawings to occur on such date and the payment of principal, interest and fees to be made on such
Series on such date), the Trustee will sell or cause to be sold, and pay the proceeds to all Certificateholders of such Certificate Series or Receivables Purchasers of such Receivables Purchase Interest all pro rata in final payment of all principal
of and accrued interest on such Series, and all accrued and unpaid fees and expenses and unreimbursed Loss Amounts (to the extent such amounts can be reimbursed pursuant to the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement) under the related
Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement, an amount of Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or interests therein) up to 110% of the sum of the Investor Interest and the Enhancement Invested Amount, if any, or the
Receivables Purchase Interest of such Series at the close of business on such date; provided, that such amount shall include any unreimbursed Loss Amounts payable to such Certificateholders or Receivables Purchasers to the extent such amounts
can be reimbursed pursuant to the related Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller shall be permitted to purchase such Receivables in such case and shall have a right of first refusal with respect thereto. Any proceeds of such sale
in excess of such principal, interest, fees and expenses and unreimbursed Loss Amounts paid, shall be paid to the Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate. Upon such Series Termination Date with respect to the applicable Series, final payment
of all amounts allocable to any Investor Certificates or, if applicable, Enhancement Invested Amounts of such Certificate Series or Receivables Purchase Interests of such Receivables Purchasers shall be made in the manner provided in
Section 12.3. 
 Section 12.2 Optional Purchase. 
 (a) If so provided in any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, cause a final
distribution to be made in respect of the related Series on a Distribution Date specified in such Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement by depositing into the Collection Account or the applicable Series Account, not later than such
Distribution Date, for application in accordance with Section 12.3 (in the case of a Certificate Series) or as provided in such Receivables Purchase Agreement, the amount specified in such Supplement or Receivables Purchase Agreement.

 (b) The amount deposited pursuant to subsection 12.2(a) shall be paid on the related Distribution Date to the
Investor Certificateholders of the related Certificate Series pursuant to Section 12.3 or Receivables Purchasers of the related Receivables Purchase Series. All

  

 93 

 
Certificates of a Certificate Series which are to be redeemed by the Trust pursuant to subsection 12.2(a) shall be canceled by the Transfer Agent and Registrar and be disposed of in a
manner satisfactory to the Trustee and the Seller. The Investor Interest of each Certificate Series which is redeemed by the Trust pursuant to subsection 12.2(a), and the Receivables Purchase Interests which are repurchased by the Trust
pursuant to subsection 12.2(a), shall, for the purposes of the definition of “Seller Interest,” be deemed to be equal to zero on the Distribution Date following the making of the deposit, and the Seller Interest shall thereupon
be deemed to have been increased by the Investor Interest of such Certificate Series or the repurchased Receivables Purchase Interest. 
 Section 12.3 Final Payment with Respect to Any Certificate Series. 
 (a) Written notice of any
termination, specifying the Distribution Date upon which the Investor Certificateholders of any Certificate Series may surrender their Certificates for payment of the final distribution with respect to such Certificate Series and cancellation, shall
be given (subject to at least two Business Days’ prior notice from the Servicer to the Trustee) by the Trustee to Investor Certificateholders of such Certificate Series mailed not later than the fifth day of the month of such final distribution
(or in the manner provided by the Supplement relating to such Certificate Series) specifying (i) the Distribution Date (which shall be the Distribution Date in the month (x) in which the deposit is made pursuant to
subsection 2.4(e), 9.2(b), 10.2(a), or 12.2(a) of this Agreement or such other section as may be specified in the related Supplement, or (y) in which the related Series Termination Date occurs) upon which
final payment of such Investor Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Investor Certificates at the office or offices therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date
otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Investor Certificates at the office or offices therein specified. The Trustee shall give such notice to the Transfer
Agent and Registrar and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to such Investor Certificateholders. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding the termination of the Trust pursuant to subsection 12.1(a) or the occurrence of the Series Termination Date with respect to any Certificate Series, all funds then on deposit in the Collection Account, the Excess Funding
Account or any Series Account applicable to the related Certificate Series shall continue to be held in trust for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders of the related Certificate Series, and the Paying Agent or the Trustee shall pay such
funds to the Certificateholders of the related Certificate Series upon surrender of their Certificates. In the event that all of the Investor Certificateholders of any Certificate Series shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within
six months after the date specified in the above-mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Investor Certificateholders of such Certificate Series upon receipt of the appropriate records from the
Transfer Agent and Registrar to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Seller upon written request any funds held by them for the
payment of principal or interest which remains unclaimed for two years. After payment to the Seller, Investor Certificateholders entitled to the such funds may seek recovery only from the Seller as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned
property law designates another Person. 
  

 94 

 (c) All Certificates surrendered for payment of the final distribution with respect to such
Certificates and cancellation shall be canceled by the Transfer Agent and Registrar and be disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee and the Seller. 
 Section 12.4 Termination of Rights of Holder of Exchangeable Seller Certificate. Upon the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 12.1, and after payment of all amounts due
hereunder on or prior to such termination and the surrender of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate, the Trustee shall execute a written reconveyance substantially in the form of Exhibit J pursuant to which it shall reconvey to the Holder
of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate (without recourse, representation or warranty) all right, title and interest of the Trust in the Receivables, whether then existing or thereafter created, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto,
all Collections, all Recoveries, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Trust with respect to the Receivables, all rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Trust under the Purchase Agreement and all proceeds of the foregoing,
except for amounts held by the Trustee pursuant to subsection 12.3(b). The Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer and assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Holder of
the Exchangeable Seller Certificate to vest in such Holder all right, title and interest which the Trust had in the Receivables.

 (a) The Seller and any Affiliate of Seller that is a Holder of the Exchangeable Seller Certificate may at Seller’s option be discharged from its obligations hereunder with respect to any Certificate Series or all outstanding
Certificate Series (the “Defeased Series”) on the date the applicable conditions set forth in subsection 12.5(c) are satisfied (a “Defeasance”); provided, however, that the following
rights, obligations, powers, duties and immunities shall survive with respect to the Defeased Series until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of the Holders of Investor Certificates of the Defeased Series to receive,
solely from the trust fund provided for in subsection 12.5(c), payments in respect of principal of and interest on such Investor Certificates when such payments are due; (ii) the right of any Enhancement Provider to the repayment of
any amount due to it under the applicable Enhancement and Supplement, including interest thereon; (iii) the Seller’s obligations with respect to such Certificates under Sections 6.3 and 6.4; (iv) the rights,
powers, trusts, duties, and immunities of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar hereunder; and (v) this Section 12.5. 
 (b) Subject to Section 12.5(c), the Seller at its option may cause Collections allocated to the Defeased Series and available to purchase Principal Receivables to be applied to purchase
Permitted Investments rather than Principal Receivables. 
 (c) The following shall be the conditions to Defeasance under
subsection 12.5(a): 
 (i) The Seller irrevocably shall have deposited or caused to be deposited with
the Trustee (such deposit to be made from other than the Seller’s or any Affiliate of the Seller’s funds), under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for
making the payments described

  

 95 

 
below, (A) Dollars in an amount, or (B) Permitted Investments which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof will provide, not later than the due date

outstanding Investor Certificates of the Defeased Series on the dates scheduled for such payments in this Agreement and the applicable Supplements and all amounts owing to the Enhancement Providers with respect to the Defeased Series; 
 (ii) prior to its first exercise of its right pursuant to this Section 12.5 with respect to a Defeased Series to
substitute money or Permitted Investments for Receivables, if any Series of Investor Certificates are outstanding that were characterized as debt at the time of their issuance, the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee a Tax Opinion with
respect to such deposit and termination of obligations and (in any case) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit and termination of obligations will not result in the Trust being required to register as an “investment
company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act; 
 (iii) the Seller shall have delivered to the
Trustee and any Enhancement Provider an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller stating the Seller reasonably believes that such deposit and termination of obligations will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such
certification, then cause an Early Amortization Event with respect to any Series or any event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would result in the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any Series; and
(iv) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and the Seller shall have delivered copies of such written notice to the Servicer and the Trustee.

notice to each Purchaser Representative (along with a copy of the form of the proposed amendment), without the consent of any Purchaser Representative, Investor Certificateholder or Receivables Purchaser; provided, that such action shall not,
as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel for the Seller addressed and delivered to the Trustee and each Purchaser Representative, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Investor Certificateholder, any Receivables Purchaser or any

recognized by any Investor Holder; (ii) a certificate that such amendment or modification would not materially and adversely affect any Investor Certificateholder, Receivables Purchaser or any Enhancement Provider; provided that no such
