SECTION 4.3. Calculations and Series Allocations.
(a) Allocations of Finance Charge Collections. On each Date of Processing, the Issuer shall allocate to the Noteholders of Series 2014-VFN[—] an amount equal to the product of (A) the Allocation Percentage and (B) the aggregate Finance Charge Collections processed on such Date of Processing. At or prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Transfer Date, the Issuer shall transfer from the Collection Account to the Finance Charge Account, an amount equal to the lesser of the Available Finance Charge Collections for the preceding Monthly Period and the Required Finance Charge Deposit Amount for the preceding Monthly Period (excluding any portion of the Required Finance Charge Deposit Amount described in clauses (f) and (g) of the definition of Required Finance Charge Deposit Amount).
(b) Allocations of Principal Collections. On each Date of Processing, the Issuer shall allocate to the Noteholders of Series 2014-VFN[—] an amount equal to the product of (A) the Allocation Percentage and (B) the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of Processing. Principal Collections allocated to Series 2014-VFN[—] during any Monthly Period in excess of the Investor Principal Collections shall be (i) first, if any Optional Amortization Amounts are outstanding (after giving effect to the deposit of any Additional Funds), deposited in the Principal Account for application, to the extent necessary, to the payment of such Optional Amortization Amounts, and (ii) second, applied as Shared Principal Collections. At or prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Transfer Date, the Issuer
22 | Indenture Supplement Series 2014-VFN[—] |
shall transfer from the Collection Account to the Principal Account, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections to the extent such funds have not been deposited into the Principal Account pursuant to Section 4.4(a) or any other provision of this Agreement.
(c) Calculations and Additional Deposits on Transfer Date. With respect to each Monthly Period falling in the Revolving Period, to the extent that Principal Collections allocated to the Noteholders of Series 2014-VFN[—] pursuant to Section 4.3(b) are paid to the holders(s) of the Transferor Interest, the Issuer shall cause the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest to make an amount equal to the Reallocated Principal Collections for the related Transfer Date available on that Transfer Date for application in accordance with Section 4.7. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a) of the Indenture allowing Collections for any Monthly Period in excess of the Aggregate Required Deposit Amount for such Monthly Period to be distributed to the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest, Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocated to the Series 2014-VFN[—] Noteholders issued pursuant to this Indenture Supplement during that Monthly Period that were released to the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest pursuant to Section 8.4(a) of the Indenture shall be deemed, for purposes of all calculations under this Indenture Supplement, to have been applied as Available Finance Charge Collections to the items specified in Section 4.4(a) to which such amounts would have been applied (and in the priority in which they would have been applied) had such amounts been available in the Collection Account on the related Payment Date. To avoid doubt, the calculations referred to in the preceding sentence include the calculations required by clause (b)(iii) of the definition of Collateral Amount. If on any Transfer Date the Free Equity Amount is less than the Minimum Free Equity Amount after giving effect to all transfers and deposits on that Transfer Date, the Issuer shall cause the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest, on that Transfer Date, to deposit into the Principal Account funds in an amount equal to the amounts of Available Finance Charge Collections that are required to be treated as Available Principal Collections pursuant to Sections 4.4(a)(ix) and (x) but are not available from funds in the Finance Charge Account as a result of the release of Collections to the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest pursuant to Section 8.4(a) of the Indenture.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, (i) funds required to be deposited into the Finance Charge Account or Principal Account pursuant to this Indenture Supplement that would be subsequently transferred to the Distribution Account may instead be directly deposited to the Distribution Account, and (ii) any funds required to be deposited into the Finance Charge Account or Principal Account pursuant to this Indenture Supplement that would be subsequently transferred to the Issuer or the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest shall not be required to be transferred to any Series Account and may be directly paid to the Issuer or the holder(s) of the Transferor Interest pursuant to the priority of payments set forth in this Indenture Supplement.
(e) Allocations of Interchange. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.3(a) or the Indenture, Interchange for each Monthly Period shall be allocated to the Noteholders of the Series issued pursuant to this Indenture Supplement based on the daily average of the Allocation Percentages for Finance Charge Collections for all dates during such Monthly Period, and shall be deposited into the Collection Account not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Payment Date following the related Monthly Period.

If that rate does not appear on that display page, LIBOR for that Interest Period will be the rate per annum shown on page “LIBOR01” of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service or such other page as may replace the LIBOR01 page on that service for the purpose of displaying London
30 | Indenture Supplement Series 2014-VFN[—] |
interbank offered rates of major banks as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date; provided that if at least two rates appear on that page, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the displayed rates and if fewer than two rates are displayed, or if no rate is relevant, the rate for that Interest Period shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London interbank market for the period of the Designated Maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two (2) such quotations are provided, the rate for that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a period of the Designated Maturity.
(b) The Issuer and each Managing Agent (and, with respect to any Class B Advance, the “Lender” (as defined in the Class B Loan Agreement)) may agree that LIBOR for the initial Interest Period for any Advance or any portion of an Interest Period will be determined based on straight-line interpolation between two rates determined in accordance with Section 4.12(a) for two different Designated Maturities, and if straight-line interpolation is to be used to determine the applicable LIBOR, the Issuer shall notify the Indenture Trustee of the applicable Designated Maturities on or before the applicable LIBOR Determination Date.
(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Issuer by facsimile, email or other electronic transmission, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. LIBOR used to calculate the Class A Note Interest Rate (if applicable) and the Class B Note Interest Rate (if applicable) for the then current and the immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at (000) 000-0000 or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose by prior written notice by the Indenture Trustee to each Series 2014-VFN[—] Noteholder from time to time.
