2 or both, as directed by the Master Servicer, (i) all funds credited to the
Specified Accounts, from time to time, on the Business Day on which such funds
are so credited (such funds so invested being herein referred to as the
"Specified Account Invested Funds"), and (ii) all funds credited to the Spread
Account, from time to time, on the Business Day on which such funds are so
credited (such funds so invested being herein referred to as the "Spread Account

the aggregate amount of funds that are permitted to be invested hereunder with
WFAL 2 that are Specified Account Invested Funds on any day shall not exceed
twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate amount of Specified Account Invested
Funds on such day. The Indenture Trustee, in addition, shall deliver to WFAL 2
or the Bank pursuant to this Agreement as directed by the Master Servicer, all
funds in the Holding Account, from time to time, on the Business Day on which
such funds are so credited (such funds so held being herein referred to as the

the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, each
of the Bank and WFAL 2, as the case may be, may invest the Invested Funds
received by it in investments selected by it at its discretion (including,
without limitation, in the case of the Bank, the use of such funds in its
operations, or, in the case of WFAL 2, the use of such funds to purchase
Contracts as permitted by its Articles) so long as this Agreement is an Eligible
Investment. Except as specified in paragraphs (b) and (c) below, it shall not be
necessary for the Bank or WFAL 2 to segregate the Invested Funds or the Holding
Account Deposited Funds deposited with it hereunder. If on any date this
Agreement shall cease to be an Eligible Investment or is terminated, then on
such date and on each date thereafter funds in the Specified Accounts will not
be delivered to and invested by the Bank and/or WFAL 2 but will instead be
invested by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments pursuant to the Sale
and Servicing Agreement, funds in the Holding Account will be maintained in such
Account and will not be deposited with the Bank or WFAL 2 pursuant to this
Agreement and funds in the Spread Account will (in each case) not be invested by
the Bank or WFAL 2 but will instead be invested by the Indenture Trustee as
collateral agent in Eligible Investments pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement.
(b) If on any date the Insurer, acting in its sole discretion, shall
have notified the Bank and WFAL 2 and the Indenture Trustee (in its capacity as
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture) in writing that the Specified Account
Invested Funds are to be held in a segregated trust account, then on such date
(or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and
on each day thereafter during the term of this Agreement all Specified Account
Invested Funds shall be held in segregated trust accounts established by the
Indenture Trustee as Eligible Accounts at Bankers Trust Company or at another
depositary institution approved by the Insurer. All Invested Funds held in an
account established pursuant to this paragraph shall be invested in Eligible
Investments, except pursuant to paragraph (a) above, pursuant to instructions by
the Bank or WFAL 2 in its discretion or, in the absence of such
2
3
instructions by the Bank or WFAL 2, as the case may be, or if any Event of
Default shall have occurred and is continuing, pursuant to instructions by the
Insurer.
(c) If on any date the Insurer, acting in its sole discretion, shall
have notified the Bank and WFAL 2 and the Indenture Trustee (in its capacity as
collateral agent) in writing that the Spread Account Invested Funds are to be
held in a segregated trust account, then on such date (or, if such date is not a
Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and on each day thereafter
during the term of this Agreement all Spread Account Invested Funds shall be
held in a segregated trust account established by the Indenture Trustee as an
Eligible Account at Bankers Trust Company or at another depositary institution
approved by the Insurer. All Invested Funds held in an account established
pursuant to this paragraph shall be invested in Eligible Investments, except
pursuant to paragraph (a) above, pursuant to instructions by the Master Servicer
or, in the absence of such instructions, as otherwise provided in Section
5.06(c) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(d) If on any date the Insurer, acting in its sole discretion, shall
have notified the Bank and WFAL 2 and the Indenture Trustee (in its capacity as

Deposited Funds are to be held in a segregated trust account, then on such date
(or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and
on each day thereafter during the term of this Agreement all Holding Account
Deposited Funds shall be held in a segregated trust account established by the
Indenture Trustee as an Eligible Account at Bankers Trust Company or at another
depositary institution approved by the Insurer. All Holding Account Deposited
Funds held in an account established pursuant to this paragraph shall not be
invested.
