pursuant to subsection 4.3(i), exceeds the amount of Finance Charge Collections
-----------------
(including Shared Finance Charge Collections) allocated to Series 1999-A
pursuant to subsection 4.4(a)(i), 4.4(b)(i) or 4.4(c)(i) with respect to such
-------------------- --------- ---------
preceding Monthly Period (whether or not such funds were deposited in the Series
Finance Charge Account) (such deficiency, the "Shortfall"), the Class C Investor
---------
Amount will be reduced by the lesser of (A) the sum of (1) the Investor Default
Amount, plus (2) the amount of any unpaid Deposit Obligation allocable to the
----
Series 1999-A Certificates in respect of the preceding Monthly Period (such sum,
the "Investor Default and Deposit Amount"), and (B) such Shortfall (together
-----------------------------------
with any reduction to the Class C Investor Amount in accordance with subsection
----------
4.5(b), a "Class C Investor Charge-Off"). If such reduction would cause the
------ ---------------------------
Class C Investor Amount to be a negative number, the Class C Investor Amount
will be zero, and the Class B Investor Amount will be reduced by an amount equal
to the excess (if any) of such reduction, over the sum of the Class C Investor
----
Amount prior to the reduction and the Class C Percentage of the Investor Default
Amount (together with any reduction to the Class B Investor Amount in accordance

----------------- ---------------------------
would cause the Class B Investor Amount to be a negative number, the Class B
Investor Amount will be zero, and the Class A Investor Amount will be reduced by
an amount equal to the excess of such reduction over the sum of the Class B
Investor Amount and the Class C Investor Amount prior to the reduction (a "Class
-----
A Investor Charge-Off").
---------------------
(b) On each Transfer Date, an amount of Principal Collections in respect of
the preceding Monthly Period allocated to the Series 1999-A Certificates equal

---------------------
Collections") by the Servicer to the extent necessary to cover Class A
-----------
Certificate Interest, Class B Certificate Interest, the Investor Monthly
Servicing Fee, the Class A Default Amount and the Class B Default Amount to the
extent not covered in full with other amounts available pursuant to Section 4.6.
-----------
On each such Transfer Date, the Class C Invested Amount remaining after any
Class C Investor Charge Offs pursuant to subsection 4.5(a) shall be reduced (but
-----------------
not below zero) by the amount of any Reallocated Principal Collections. If the
amount of Reallocated Principal Collections for any Transfer Date exceeds the
Class C Investor Amount remaining after any Class C Investor Charge Off pursuant
to subsection 4.5(a), then the Class B Investor Amount remaining after any Class
-----------------
B Investor Charge Offs pursuant to subsection 4.5(a) shall be reduced (but not
-----------------
below zero) by the amount of any remaining Reallocated Principal Collections.
Section 4.6 Monthly Payments. On each Determination Date, the Servicer
----------------
shall instruct the Trustee, by delivering the Monthly Payment Instructions and
Notification to Trustee, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, to, and

the applicable grace period set forth in such subparagraphs, either the Trustee
or the Holders of Series 1999-A Certificates evidencing Undivided Interests

interest periods corresponding to each Accrual Period, plus 3.00% per
annum; provided that the Seller may designate a higher fixed or floating
--------
rate upon satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition;
(b) return the Class C Certificates to the Trustee for cancellation,
after which cancellation the interest in the Trust initially evidenced by
the Class C Certificates shall constitute the Collateral Interest but shall

additional rights and benefits not inconsistent with the Agreement and this
Series Supplement as shall be set forth in a Loan Agreement; or

Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate after the Exchange Date in accordance
with the paragraph below.
(d) After (i) the Exchange Date and (ii) receipt by the Transfer Agent and
Registrar of written instructions from Euroclear or Cedel, as the case may be,
directing the Transfer Agent and Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to
either Euroclear's or Cedel's, as the case may be, depositary account a
beneficial interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate in a
principal amount not greater than that of the beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate, the Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall instruct the Clearing Agency to reduce the principal amount of the
Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate and increase the principal amount of
the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate, by the principal amount of the
beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate to be so
transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of Euroclear,
Cedel or any Clearing Agency Participant, as the case may be, a beneficial
24
interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate having a principal
amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate that was reduced upon

Global Certificate to Trustee in exchange for beneficial interests in the
Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate, Trustee shall cancel the Regulation S
Temporary Global Certificate by perforation and shall forthwith destroy it.
(e) Transfers between different Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in

any time to exchange its interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global
Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Certificate, or to transfer
its interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate to a Person
who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Rule
144A Certificate, the Holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of
Euroclear or Cedel and the Clearing Agency, as the case may be, give
directions for the Transfer Agent and Registrar to exchange or cause the
exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of the interest for an
equivalent beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Certificate. Upon receipt
by the Transfer Agent and Registrar of instructions from Euroclear or Cedel
(based on instructions from a Member Organization) or from a Clearing
Agency Participant, as applicable, or the Clearing Agency, as the case may
be, directing the Transfer Agent and Registrar to credit or cause to be
credited a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Certificate equal to the
beneficial interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate to be
exchanged or transferred (such instructions to contain information
regarding the Clearing Agency Participant account to be credited with the
increase, and, with respect to an exchange or transfer of an interest in
the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate, information regarding the
Clearing Agency Participant account to be debited with the decrease), the
Transfer Agent and Registrar shall instruct the Clearing Agency to reduce
the Regulation S Permanent Global Certificate by the aggregate principal
amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Permanent Global
Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, and the Transfer Agent shall
instruct the Clearing Agency, concurrently with the reduction, to increase
the principal amount of the Rule 144A Certificate by the aggregate
principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Permanent
Global Certificate to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or
cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in the
instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Certificate equal to
the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Permanent Global
Certificate.
(ii) If a Certificate Owner holding a beneficial interest in the Rule
144A Certificate wishes at any time to exchange its interest in the Rule
144A Certificate for an interest in a Regulation S Global Certificate, or
to transfer its interest in the Rule 144A Certificate to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the
Regulation S
25
Global Certificate, the Holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of
the Clearing Agency, give directions for the Transfer Agent and Registrar
to exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of the
interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global
Certificate. Upon receipt by the Transfer Agent and Registrar of (A)
instructions given in accordance with the Clearing Agency's procedures from
a Clearing Agency Participant directing the Transfer Agent and Registrar to
credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Regulation S
Global Certificate in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the
Rule 144A Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, (B) a written order
given in accordance with the Clearing Agency's procedures containing
information regarding the account of the depositaries for Euroclear or
Cedel or another Clearing Agency Participant, as the case may be, to be
credited with the increase and the name of the account and (C) certificates
in the forms of Exhibits H and I, respectively, given by the Certificate
---------- -
Owner and the proposed transferee of the interest, the Transfer Agent and
Registrar shall instruct the Clearing Agency to reduce the Rule 144A
Certificate by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in
the Rule 144A Certificate to be so exchanged or transferred and the
Transfer Agent and Registrar shall instruct the Clearing Agency,
concurrently with the reduction, to increase the principal amount of the
Regulation S Global Certificate by the aggregate principal amount of the
beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Certificate to be so exchanged or
transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the
Person specified in the instructions a beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Certificate equal to the reduction in the principal
amount of the Rule 144A Certificate.
(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12, a
----------
placement agent for the Certificates may exchange beneficial interests in
the Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate held by it for interests in
the Rule 144A Certificate only after delivery by the placement agent of
instructions for the exchange substantially in the form of Exhibit J. Upon
---------
receipt of the instructions described in the preceding sentence, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar shall instruct the Clearing Agency to reduce
the principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate to be
so transferred and shall instruct the Clearing Agency to increase the
principal amount of the Rule 144A Certificate and credit or cause to be
credited to the account of the placement agent a beneficial interest in the
Rule 144A Certificate having a principal amount equal to the amount by
which the principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Certificate
was reduced upon the transfer pursuant to the instructions provided in the
first sentence of this subclause.
(iv) If a Book-Entry Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive
Certificate, the Certificates may be exchanged or transferred for one
another only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially
consistent with the provisions of clauses (i) through (iii) above
----------- -----
(including the certification requirements intended to ensure that the
exchanges or transfers comply with Rule 144 or Regulation S under the
Securities Act, as the case may be) and as may be from time to time adopted
by the Trustee upon written instruction from the Seller.
