PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

 

WHEREAS, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Performance Undertaking Provider would like the Purchaser Agents to consent, and subject to the terms hereof such Purchaser Agents are willing to consent, to certain rating level exceptions for two of the Eligible Account Banks under the Agreement;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Amendment and Consent; Limitations.

 

1.1.                            Consent. At the request of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Performance Undertaking Provider, the Purchaser Agents hereby consent to and agree that notwithstanding the requirement set forth in the definition of “Eligible Account Bank” with respect to accounts outside the U.S. that the entity have at least two of the three following short-term ratings: at least A-1 by S&P, P-1 by Moody’s and F1 by Fitch, each of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A. (“BBVA”) and Banesto (“Banesto”) shall be considered an Eligible Account Bank for so long as (x) it has at least two of the three following short-term ratings: at least A-2 by S&P, at least P-2 by Moody’s and at least F2 by Fitch, and (y) it meets all other applicable criteria in the definition of Eligible Account Bank.

 

If either BBVA or Banesto fails to satisfy the requirements set forth above, it shall not constitute an “Eligible Account Bank” on the 30th calendar day following the initial date of such failure and the applicable Transaction Party shall transfer the applicable Collection Account(s) to an Eligible Account Bank and redirect all Obligors of the Spanish Portfolio Receivables (as defined below) to make payments to such new account within such 30 day period.

 

 

1.2                               Amendments.  The following paragraph shall be added to the definition of “Concentration Amount” in the Agreement:

 

1.2.1 “and (i) (a) on the monthly Settlement Date falling 6 months after the date Banesto or BBVA fails to satisfy the requirements set forth in the definition of Eligible Account Bank, the Master Servicer shall report the percentage of Collections paid with respect to Eligible Receivables sold under the Spanish RPA (the “Spanish Portfolio Receivables”) that have been paid directly into the then current Spanish Collection Accounts constituting Eligible Account Banks during the prior calendar month as a percentage of all Collections received on Eligible Receivables constituting Spanish Portfolio Receivables during such period (the “Direct Spanish Collection Percentage”) and in the event that the Direct Spanish Collection Percentage reported is less than 75%, an amount equal to the product of (A) the Outstanding Balance of Spanish Portfolio Receivables that qualify as Eligible Receivables and (B) 100% minus the Direct Spanish Collection Percentage and (b) on the monthly Settlement Date falling each month thereafter, an amount equal to the product of (A) the Outstanding Balance of Spanish Portfolio Receivables that qualify as Eligible Receivables and (B) 100% minus the Direct Spanish Collection Percentage, until such time that the Direct Spanish Collection Percentage is equal to or higher than 90%.

 

1.3.                            General Limitations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Transaction Documents, by executing this Amendment and Consent, none of the Purchaser Agents is now consenting to, nor has any Purchaser Agent agreed to consent in the future to, any additional exceptions or amendments to the definitions of “Eligible Account Bank” or “Concentration Amount” or any other provisions of any Transaction Document other than as expressly set forth in Sections 1.1 and 1.2 above.

 

1.4.                            No Waiver of Indemnification, Etc.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, no Purchaser Agent is hereby waiving or releasing, nor have any of them agreed to waive or release in the future, any right or claim to indemnification or reimbursement by, or damages from any of the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Performance Undertaking Provider under any Transaction Document, including without limitation, for any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, judgment, settlement, cost, expense or disbursement resulting or arising directly or indirectly from consents set forth in Section 1.1 above or the amendments set forth in Section 1.2 above.

 

2.                                      Representations.

 

2.1.                            Representations and Warranties. Each of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Performance Undertaking Provider represents and warrants to the other parties hereto that, after giving effect to this Amendment and Consent, each of its representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement, as such representations and warranties apply to such Person, is true and correct  in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date except for representations and warranties stated to refer to a specific earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct as of such earlier date.
