During the Revolving Period, the Floating Allocation Percentage of Principal Collections received each day will be deposited into the Collection Account as Excess Principal Collections no later than two (2) Business Days following the Date of Processing to the extent required to be distributed to other Series on the next succeeding Distribution Date and any excess will be remitted to the Transferor, unless such distribution of Principal Collections would reduce the Transferor Amount as a percentage of the Trust Principal Component below 10% (after giving effect to any new Receivables transferred to the Trust), in which case such amount will be retained in the Collection Account as Undistributed Principal Collections. Any Undistributed Principal Collections remaining in the Collection Account on the next succeeding Distribution Date will be deposited into the Special Funding Account and made available on subsequent Distribution Dates.
(iii) During the Controlled Accumulation Period. During the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Fixed Allocation Percentage of Principal Collections received each day allocable to the Certificateholders' Interest, and any Excess Principal Collections allocable to the Certificates pursuant to Section 4.12 will be deposited by the Servicer into the Principal Funding Account for the benefit of the Class A Certificateholders no later than two (2) Business Days following the Date of Processing until the sum of all such deposits equals the Controlled Deposit Amount; thereafter, the Fixed Allocation Percentage of Principal Collections received each day will be deposited into the Collection Account as Excess Principal Collections to the extent required to be distributed to other Series on the next succeeding Distribution Date.
(iv) During the Rapid Accumulation Period. During the Rapid Accumulation Period, the Fixed Allocation Percentage of Principal Collections received each day allocable to the Certificateholders' Interest, and any Excess Principal Collections allocable to the Certificates pursuant to Section 4.12 will be deposited by the Servicer into the Principal Funding Account for the benefit of the Class B Certificateholders no later than two (2) Business Days following the Date of Processing until the sum of all such deposits equals the Class B Invested Amount; thereafter, the Fixed Allocation Percentage of Principal Collections received each day will be deposited into the Collection Account as Excess Principal Collections to the extent required to be distributed to other Series on the next succeeding Distribution Date.
(v) During any Early Amortization Period and after the Class B Expected Final Payment Date. After the Class B Expected Final Payment Date and during an Early Amortization Period, all Principal Collections received each day allocable to the Certificateholders' Interest, and the Excess Principal Collections allocable to the Certificates will be deposited by the Servicer into the Collection Account no later than two (2) Business Days following the Date of Processing until such deposits equal the amount of principal required to be paid to Certificateholders.
(vi) During the Revolving Period, any Accumulation Period and any Early Amortization Period. During the Revolving Period, any Accumulation Period and any Early Amortization
10
Period, if the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections is required to be allocated in respect of the Available Subordinated Amount pursuant to Section 4.14 of this Agreement, the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections will be deposited by the Servicer into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of the Date of Processing.

SECTION 4.5. Determination of Monthly Interest for the Certificates.
(a) The amount of monthly interest distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class A Certificates ("Class A Monthly Interest") on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Class A Certificate Rate, (ii) the actual number of days in the related Interest Accrual Period divided by 360 and (iii) the Class A Invested Amount; provided, however, with respect to the first Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates, Class A Monthly Interest shall be equal to the product of (A) the Class A Certificate Rate, (B) 39 divided by 360 and (C) the Class A Initial Invested Amount.
(b) The amount of monthly interest distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class B Certificates ("Class B Monthly Interest") on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Class B Certificate Rate, (ii) the actual number of days in the related Interest Accrual Period divided by 360 and (iii) the Class B Invested Amount; provided, however, with respect to the first Distribution Date for the Class B Certificates, Class B Monthly Interest shall be equal to the product of (A) the Class B Certificate Rate, (B) 39 divided by 360 and (C) the Class B Initial Invested Amount.
(c) The amount of monthly interest distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class C Certificates ("Class C Monthly Interest") on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Class C Certificate Rate, (ii) the actual number of days in the related Interest Accrual Period divided by 360 and (iii) the Class C Invested Amount; provided, however, with respect to the first Distribution Date for the Class C Certificates, Class C Monthly Interest shall be equal to the product of (A) the Class C Certificate Rate, (B) 39 divided by 360 and (C) the Class C Initial Invested Amount.
(d) On the second London Banking Day preceding the first day of an Interest Accrual Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), until the Stated Series Termination Date, the Trustee will
11
determine the rate for deposits in United States dollars having a one-month maturity, commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual Period, which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate for such LIBOR Determination Date will be determined on the basis of rates at which deposits in United States dollars having a one-month maturity 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. The Trustee will request the principal London office in each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for such LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations (rounded upward to the nearest 0.015625%). If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for such LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded upward to the nearest 0.015625%) of the rates quoted by major banks in The City of New York, selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York time, on such date for loans in United States dollars having a one-month maturity to leading European banks; provided, however, that if the Trustee is unable to determine a rate in accordance with one of the procedures described above, LIBOR shall be LIBOR as determined on the most recent LIBOR Determination Date. The Class A Certificate Rate and the Class B Certificate Rate applicable to the then current and preceding Interest Accrual Period shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon request. For purposes of calculating LIBOR, "London Banking Day" means any business day on which dealings in deposits in United States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market, "Telerate Page 3750" means the display page currently so designated on the Dow Xxxxx Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying comparable rates or prices) and "Reference Banks" means three major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Servicer.
SECTION 4.6. Determination of Monthly Principal for the Certificates.
(a) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class A Certificates on each Distribution Date during the Controlled Accumulation Period or on the Class A Expected Final Payment Date shall be equal to an amount calculated as the lesser of: (i) the sum of (A) an amount equal to the Fixed Allocation Percentage of all Principal Collections received during the Collection Period immediately preceding the Class A Expected Final Payment Date or Distribution Date, as applicable (calculated without giving effect to the allocation of Excess Principal Collections from other Series, if any, or the allocations from the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections), (B) the amount, if any, of Series 2000-1 Undistributed Principal Collections for such Distribution Date and (C) the Investor Default Amount with respect to such Distribution Date or the Class A Expected Final Payment Date, as applicable, and any reimbursements of unreimbursed Class A Investor Charge-Offs ("Class A Monthly Principal"); provided, however, that with respect to any Distribution Date, Class A Monthly Principal may not exceed the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount; and (ii) the sum of (A) the Controlled Accumulation Amount for the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date, plus (B) any unpaid Accumulation Shortfall related to any prior Collection Period (the "Controlled Deposit Amount").
(b) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class B Certificates (the "Class B Monthly Principal") on each Distribution Date beginning with the Distribution Date on which the Class A Certificates are paid in full, shall be equal to an amount calculated as follows: the sum of (i) an amount equal to the Fixed Allocation Percentage of all Principal Collections received during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date (calculated without giving effect to the allocation of Excess Principal Collections from other Series, if any, or the allocation from the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections), (ii) the amount, if any, of Series 2000-1 Undistributed Principal Collections for such
12
Distribution Date, (iii) the Investor Default Amount with respect to such Distribution Date and any reimbursements of unreimbursed Class B Investor Charge-Offs, and if during an Early Amortization Period, minus (iv) Class A Monthly Principal, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided, however, that with respect to any Distribution Date, Class B Monthly Principal may not exceed an amount equal to the Class B Invested Amount.
(c) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class C Certificates (the "Class C Monthly Principal") on each Distribution Date beginning with the Distribution Date as of which both Classes of Offered Certificates have been paid in full, shall be equal to an amount calculated as follows: the sum of (i) an amount equal to the Fixed Allocation Percentage of all Principal Collections received during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date (calculated without giving effect to the allocation of Excess Principal Collections from other Series, if any, or the allocation from the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections), (ii) the amount, if any, of Series 2000-1 Undistributed Principal Collections for such Distribution Date, (iii) the Investor Default Amount with respect to such Distribution Date and any reimbursements of unreimbursed Class C Investor Charge-Offs, and if during an Early Amortization Period, minus (iv) Class A Monthly Principal and Class B Monthly Principal, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided, however, that with respect to any Distribution Date, Class C Monthly Principal may not exceed an amount equal to the Class C Invested Amount.
(d) With respect to any Distribution Date related to any Accumulation Period or any Early Amortization Period, if (a) the sum of (x) an amount equal to the Fixed Allocation Percentage of all Principal Collections received during the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date, (y) the amount, if any, of Series 2000-1 Undistributed Principal Collections for such Distribution Date and (z) the Investor Default Amount with respect to such Distribution Date and any reimbursements of unreimbursed Class A Investor Charge-Offs, Class B Investor Charge-Offs and Class C Investor Charge-Offs shall exceed (b) the sum of (i) Class A Monthly Principal, (ii) Class B Monthly Principal and (iii) Class C Monthly Principal with respect to any Distribution Date, then such excess amount shall be treated as Excess Principal Collections. If, with respect to a Distribution Date related to any Accumulation Period or Early Amortization Period, the sum of the Class A Monthly Principal, the Class B Monthly Principal and the Class C Monthly Principal is less than the sum of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount, the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class C Invested Amount, the amount of such shortfall shall be the Series 2000-1 Principal Shortfall (the "Series 2000-1 Principal Shortfall") with respect to such Distribution Date.
SECTION 4.7. Establishment and Maintenance of Servicer Cash Collateral Account.
(a) The Servicer Cash Collateral Account. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain or cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Servicer Cash Collateral Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deposit the Initial Servicer Cash Collateral Deposit into the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in the Servicer Cash Collateral Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Servicer Cash Collateral Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Servicer Cash Collateral Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within five (5) Business Days establish a new Eligible Deposit Account as the Servicer Cash Collateral Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Servicer Cash
13
Collateral Account and from the date such new Servicer Cash Collateral Account is established, it shall be the "Servicer Cash Collateral Account."
(b) Application of Funds on Deposit in the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. If for any reason the Servicer fails to deposit to the Collection Account Yield Collections it has received for any Collection Period by the Transfer Date (as indicated on the Monthly Servicer's Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.4(c) of the Agreement), the Trustee shall, on the related Distribution Date, withdraw from the Servicer Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the shortfall required to pay Class A Monthly Interest and Class B Monthly Interest for such Collection Period and deposit such amount in the Collection Account. The Servicer shall be required to remit such amount to the Collection Account immediately upon notice from the Trustee that the Trustee has made a withdrawal and, if no such remittance has been made by the fifth Business Day after the Distribution Date for such Collection Period, an Early Amortization Event shall occur on such fifth Business Day. If the Servicer does remit such amount to the Collection Account by the fifth Business Day after the Distribution Date for such Collection Period, the Trustee shall withdraw such amount from the Collection Account and deposit it into the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. On the Closing Date and on each Distribution Date, all funds on deposit in the Servicer Cash Collateral Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments as directed by the Servicer with maturities not exceeding the succeeding Transfer Date, and all earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on such Eligible Investments shall be paid to the Servicer on the next succeeding Distribution Date (provided that if the Servicer is obligated to remit funds to the Collection Account pursuant to the foregoing sentence, such earnings shall be retained in the Servicer Cash Collateral Account). Upon the termination of the Trust in accordance with Section 12.1(a) of this Agreement, all funds on deposit in the Servicer Cash Collateral Account shall be remitted to the Servicer.
(c) Optional Termination of the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. The Servicer may elect to terminate the Servicer Cash Collateral Account and direct the Trustee to release all funds on deposit in such account to the Servicer if, at any time, any of the following shall occur and be continuing:
(i) the Servicer elects to remit Collections to the Collection Account on a daily basis;
(ii) the ratings assigned by each of Standard & Poor's and Moody's to the short-term debt obligations of Yamaha shall be no lower than "A-1" and "P-1", respectively;
(iii) the ratings assigned by each of Standard & Poor's and Moody's to the short-term debt obligations of DFS shall be no lower than "A-1" and P-1" and Yamaha and DFS shall have agreed in a document satisfactory to the Rating Agencies that DFS shall remit Collections directly to the Collection Account rather than to Yamaha;
(iv) the Servicer provides a letter of credit, surety bond or other similar instrument and related documents meeting the requirements of the Rating Agencies; or
(v) the Servicer obtains written confirmation from each of Standard & Poor's and Moody's that other arrangements satisfactory to such Rating Agencies have been effectuated.
(d) Mandatory Termination of the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. If, on any Determination Date, one-month LIBOR (as calculated by the Trustee on the preceding LIBOR Determination Date pursuant to Section 4.5(d)) shall exceed 15% per annum, then, in such event, the Servicer shall be required to remit all Collections to the Collection Account on a daily basis. After such time, the Servicer Cash Collateral Account shall be terminated and the Trustee shall release all funds on deposit in such account to the Servicer, net of any amount not already in the Collection Account required to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the Certificates, which amount shall be deposited by the Trustee into the Collection Account.
14
In the event that one-month LIBOR (as calculated by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.5(d)) shall be equal to or less than 15% per annum on any Determination Date after the Servicer Cash Collateral Account has been terminated, the Servicer may, but need not, reestablish and maintain the Servicer Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 4.7(a). If the Servicer elects to reestablish and maintain the Servicer Cash Collateral Account, the Servicer shall deposit an amount equal to the Initial Servicer Cash Collateral Deposit into the Servicer Cash Collateral Account. Once such deposit has been made, the Servicer shall no longer be required to deposit Collections into the Collection Account on a daily basis and the Servicer may, but need not, deposit such Collections on a less frequent basis in accordance with Section 4.1(g).
SECTION 4.8. Establishment of the Principal Funding Account for the Certificates.
(a) The Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain or cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Principal Funding Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Principal Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Principal Funding Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2000-1 Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall, within five (5) Business Days, establish a new Eligible Deposit Account as the Principal Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Principal Funding Account and from the date such new Principal Funding Account is established, it shall be, for the Series 2000-1 Certificates, the "Principal Funding Account".
(b) On each Distribution Date during any Accumulation Period, the Servicer shall withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit in the Collection Account all interest and other investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds then on deposit in the Principal Funding Account, which amounts shall be applied pursuant to Section 4.9(a)-(i) as Available Yield Funds.
(c) Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account prior to the Class B Expected Final Payment Date shall be invested by the Trustee (or, if authorized by the Trustee, by the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee) in Eligible Investments determined by the Servicer; provided that the Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of an Eligible Investment before its maturity, at the written direction of the Servicer, if such sale, liquidation or disposal would not result in a loss of all or part of the principal portion of such Eligible Investment or if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment.
(d) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in Section 3.1(b), the Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments or to instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer's or Trustee's duties hereunder. Pursuant to the authority granted to the Paying Agent in Sections 5.1 and 6.6, the Paying Agent shall have the power, revocable by the Trustee, to withdraw funds from the Principal Funding Account for the purpose of making distributions to the Certificateholders.
SECTION 4.9. Application of Funds on Deposit in the Collection Account for the Certificates. On each Transfer Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Trustee in writing to apply, and on the immediately succeeding Distribution Date the Trustee, acting in accordance with such instructions, shall apply, for the Collection Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date, from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (A) an amount equal to the Floating Allocation Percentage of Yield Collections
15

(v) if the Class A Invested Amount is not paid in full on the Class A Expected Final Payment Date or if an Early Amortization Event has otherwise occurred, on each Distribution Date thereafter until the Class A Certificateholders have been paid in full, the amount on deposit in the Collection Account constituting Available Principal Funds, up to a maximum
18
amount on such date equal to the Class A Invested Amount on such date, shall be distributed for payment to the Class A Certificateholders;
(vi) if the Class B Invested Amount is not paid in full on the Class B Expected Final Payment Date or if an Early Amortization Event has otherwise occurred, on each Distribution Date thereafter until the Class B Certificateholders have been paid in full, the amount on deposit in the Collection Account constituting Available Principal Funds, up to a maximum amount on such date equal to the Class B Invested Amount on such date, shall be distributed for payment to the Class B Certificateholders; and

(a) In the event that any such reduction of the Class C Invested Amount would cause the Class C Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Class C Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class C Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not more than the Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date (a "Class B Investor Charge-Off"). To the extent that on any subsequent Distribution Date there remains any Available Yield Funds on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to Sections 4.9(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f), the Servicer will apply such remaining Available Yield Funds as provided in Section 4.9(g) to reimburse the aggregate amount of Class B Investor Charge-Offs not previously reimbursed, up to the amount so available.
(b) In the event that any such reduction of the Class B Invested Amount would cause the Class B Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class A Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not more than the Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date (a "Class A Investor Charge-Off"). To the extent that on any subsequent Distribution Date there remains any Available Yield Funds on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to Sections 4.9(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e), the Servicer will apply such remaining Available Yield Funds as provided in Section 4.9(f) to reimburse the aggregate amount of Class A Investor Charge-Offs not previously reimbursed, up to the amount so available.
(c) To the extent that on any subsequent Distribution Date there remains any Available Yield Funds on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to Sections 4.9(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g), the Servicer will apply such remaining Available Yield Funds as provided in Section 4.9(h) to reimburse the aggregate amount of Class C Investor Charge-Offs not previously reimbursed, up to the amount so available.
SECTION 4.12. Excess Principal Collections. Excess Principal Collections allocated to the Series 2000-1 Certificates for any Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.1(f)(a), and available for
19
distribution to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.9(j)(B), shall mean an amount equal to the product of (x) Excess Principal Collections for all series for such Distribution Date and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series 2000-1 Principal Shortfall for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all series for such Distribution Date. For any Distribution Date during the Revolving Period, Excess Principal Collections from another series allocated to the Series 2000-1 Certificates shall be zero.
SECTION 4.13. Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections. For any Distribution Date during any Accumulation Period or Early Amortization Period, the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections allocated to the Series 2000-1 Certificates, and available for distribution to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.9(j)(B), shall mean an amount equal to the product of (x) the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections for all series for such Distribution Date (after giving effect to Section 4.14) and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series 2000-1 Principal Shortfall for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all Series for such Distribution Date. Except as provided in Section 4.14, for any Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period, the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections allocated to the Series 2000-1 Certificates shall be zero.
SECTION 4.14. Subordination of Transferor Interest In Certain Circumstances. (a) In the event that, on any Determination Date, a Transferor Subordination Event (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing, then the Transferor's right to the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections received during the related Collection Period shall be subordinated to the extent of the applicable Available Subordinated Amount. The amount of the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections equal to the Available Subordinated Amount allocable to the Series 2000-1 Certificates and the certificates of any other Series shall be included in Available Yield Funds and applied as such pursuant to Section 4.9(a)-(i) and the remaining amount of the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections shall then be applied as provided in Section 4.13.
(b) In the event that on any subsequent Determination Date such Transferor Subordination Event shall no longer be continuing, provided that no Early Amortization Event shall have occurred, the right of the Transferor to receive the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections during the related Collection Period shall no longer be subordinated, and the Available Subordinated Amount shall be deemed to be zero again; provided that the Transferor's right to receive the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections shall remain subject to Section 4.13.
In the case of the event described in clause (d)(i) below, the Available Subordinated Amount will be equal to 1% of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount as of the last day of such Collection Period.
In the case of any event described in clause (d)(ii), (d)(iii) or (d)(viii) below, the Available Subordinated Amount will be equal to the dollar amount by which the aggregate balance of such Receivables exceeds the specified percentage therein.
In the case of the event described in clause (d)(iv) below, the Available Subordinated Amount will be equal to the dollar amount by which such sum exceeds the specified percentage therein.
In the case of the event described in clause (d)(v) below, the Available Subordinated Amount will be adjusted each Collection Period thereafter by the aggregate amount of Receivables in those New Accounts included in the Trust which caused such percentage to exceed the specified percentages therein, or alternatively, will not be so adjusted in the event the Transferor provides to the Trustee a letter from each of the Rating Agencies then providing a rating for any Class of Offered Certificates at the Transferor's request that such event will not result in a downgrade or withdrawal of the then current ratings assigned by each of them to any Class of Offered Certificates.
20
In the case of the event described in clause (d)(vi) or (d)(vii) below, the Available Subordinated Amount will be increased by the aggregate amount of Receivables in New Accounts and Dealer Replacement Accounts, or alternatively, will not be so adjusted in the event the Transferor provides to the Trustee a letter from each of the Rating Agencies then providing a rating for any Class of Offered Certificates at the Transferor's request that such event will not result in a downgrade or withdrawal of the then current ratings assigned by each of them to any Class of Offered Certificates.
Should any increase in the Available Subordinated Amount resulting from the occurrence of an event described in clauses (d)(ii)-(d)(viii) below cause the Transferor Amount as a percentage of the Trust Principal Component to be less than the Minimum Transferor Percentage, then the Transferor shall deposit funds in an amount equal to such deficiency to the Collection Account. Any such deposit by the Transferor shall be treated as a Collection and allocated in respect of Yield Collections and Principal Collections as specified in this Article IV. Unless otherwise indicated, the "Available Subordinated Amount" at any time shall be the sum of all Available Subordinated Amounts described below at such time.
(c) The Available Subordinated Amount shall be reduced on any Distribution Date by the amount of the Transferor Percentage of Principal Collections which are applied as Available Yield Funds and shall be reinstated (up to the required Available Subordinated Amount) by the amount of the Available Yield Funds distributed to the Transferor as provided in Section 4.9(i).
(d) A "Transferor Subordination Event" with respect to the Offered Certificates shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events at any time:
(i) the average payment rate determined by dividing the aggregate amount of Collections for each Collection Period by the beginning Pool Balance for each such Collection Period, averaged for any three consecutive Collection Periods, is less than (x) with respect to the Collection Periods included in the period from each November through the next succeeding April, 10% and (y) with respect to the Collection Periods included in the period from each May through the next succeeding October, 13%;
(ii) as of the last day of any Collection Period, the average aggregate balance of Receivables with respect to Products constituting all-terrain vehicles, for the three consecutive Collection Periods immediately preceding such date, calculated as a percentage of the Pool Balance, exceeds 36%;
(iii) as of the last day of any Collection Period, the aggregate balance of Receivables with respect to all Products other than motorcycles/scooters, water vehicles, all-terrain vehicles, outboards and snowmobiles, calculated as a percentage of the Pool Balance, exceeds 10%;
(iv) the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of all dealer "holdbacks" with respect to Products for which there has been no retail sale by the Dealer, plus (y) the aggregate amount of all discounts available to Dealers pursuant to sales programs on Products owed by Yamaha to the Dealers, exceeds 5% of the Pool Balance;
(v) either (x) on an annual basis, the percentage derived by dividing the number of New Accounts added to the Trust during any fiscal year of the Transferor by the number of Accounts in the Trust at the beginning of such year exceeds 8% or (y) on a quarterly basis, the percentage derived by dividing the number of New Accounts added to the Trust during such calendar quarter by the number of Accounts in the Trust at the beginning of such calendar quarter exceeds 5%;
(vi) the annualized rate (averaged for a period of three consecutive Collection Periods) of (x) Defaulted Receivables minus recoveries plus the repossession value of all Products
21
repossessed during each such Collection Period to (y) the beginning Pool Balance for the related Collection Period exceeds 7.5%;
(vii) either (x) on an annual basis, the percentage derived by dividing the number of New Accounts and Dealer Replacement Accounts added to the Trust during any fiscal year of the Transferor by the number of Accounts in the Trust at the beginning of such year exceeds 15% or (y) on a quarterly basis, the percentage derived by dividing the number of New Accounts and Dealer Replacement Accounts added to the Trust during such calendar quarter by the number of Accounts in the Trust at the beginning of such calendar quarter exceeds 5%; and
(viii) as of the last day of any Collection Period prior to the repayment in full of the Series 1998-1 Asset-Backed Certificates, the aggregate balance of Receivables due from a single Dealer, as a percentage of the Pool Balance, exceeds 1%.
