(iii) If the application of funds to the payment of the principal of another Series of Notes or the release of funds to the Issuer would result in (x) a Series 2011-1 Asset Amount Deficiency or (y) during the Revolving Period, the occurrence of an event that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would become an Amortization Event, all remaining Series 2011-1 Collections shall be transferred to the Series 2011-1 Principal Subaccount up to the amount necessary to eliminate such Series 2011-1 Asset Amount Deficiency or Amortization Event, as applicable; and
(iv) During the Revolving Period, (A) if any other Series of Notes is in its Amortization Period and the Indenture Supplement related to such amortizing Series of Notes requires the Issuer to transfer such remaining Series 2011-1 Collections to pay the principal of such other Series of Notes, all remaining Series 2011-1 Collections to the applicable Series Account with respect to such amortizing Series of Notes; provided, that if more than one other Series of Notes is amortizing and the related Indenture Supplement of each such amortizing Series of Notes requires the Issuer to transfer such remaining Series 2011-1 Collections to pay the principal of such other Series of Notes, pro rata to the applicable Series Account of each such other amortizing Series of Notes based on their respective Series Percentages; and (B) if no transfer of the remaining Series 2011-1 Collections is required pursuant to clause (A), all remaining Series 2011-1 Collections to the Issuer free and clear of the lien of the Indenture and without compliance with Section 12.01(b) of the Indenture.

If Series 2011-1 and any other Series are simultaneously in their respective Amortization Periods or otherwise simultaneously requiring such
14
Exhibit 10.61
payments, such Otherwise Released Collections shall be allocated ratably between each such Series of Notes (including Series 2011-1) based on their respective Series Percentages.

(a) The amount of interest distributable from the Distribution Account with respect to the Series 2011-1 Notes on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the sum of the Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus any Interest Shortfall and any Additional Interest as determined under Section 4.02(b). The monthly interest for any Tranche shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days during the Interest Period then ending that such Tranche was outstanding and the denominator of which is 360 multiplied by (ii) the Series 2011-1 Tranche Rate in effect with respect to the related Tranche multiplied by (iii) the daily average Outstanding Tranche Amount of the related Tranche during the related Interest Period. The amount of interest allocable to the Tranches of any Purchaser Group and due to the Purchasers in the related Purchaser Group shall be determined by each Managing Agent and notified by each Managing Agent to the Administrative Agent, the Servicer, the Issuer, the Paying Agent and the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement.
(b) The “Monthly Interest” for any Distribution Date shall mean the sum of the aggregate unpaid amount, if any, of all unpaid interest determined for each Tranche under Section 4.02(a). On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess (the “Interest Shortfall”), if any, of (x) the Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, then on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Additional Interest”) equal to the product of (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related Interest Period and the denominator of which is 360 multiplied by (B) the applicable Series 2011-1 Tranche Rate multiplied by (C) such Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof that has not been paid to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders from other funds) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Series 2011-1 Notes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed only to the extent permitted by applicable law. From and after the calculation of any Interest Shortfall, Monthly Interest shall be calculated without duplication of any amounts included in the calculation of Additional Interest.

On any Distribution Date and any Decrease Date, (i) during the Revolving Period, if there are funds on deposit in the Series 2011-1 Principal Subaccount, and (ii) during the Amortization Period, the Trustee shall distribute from the Series 2011-1 Principal Subaccount, for application to reduce the Series Outstanding Amount, an amount of principal (the “Monthly Principal”), equal to the lesser of (a) the amount on deposit in the Series 2011-1 Principal Subaccount and (b) the Series Outstanding Amount. All Monthly Principal and the amount of all Decreases shall be paid to the Purchaser Groups ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares as set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement; provided that, during a Term-Out Period with respect to any Purchaser Group, such Purchaser Group’s allocable share of Monthly Principal shall be deposited into its Term-Out Period Account.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Foreign Lockbox Condition to be satisfied shall not, for purposes of determining the rights and remedies of the Series 2011-1 Noteholders under any of the Transaction Documents, be determined to be an Amortization Event, Event of Default or a Servicer Default, so long as (i) the Issuer diligently attempts to remedy such Foreign Lockbox Condition, including by establishing new lockbox accounts and replacing JPMorgan Chase Bank as its current foreign lockbox bank if necessary and (ii) the Servicer continues to cause all Pool Collections deposited into any of the foreign lockbox accounts maintained with JPMorgan Chase Bank’s London Branch or elsewhere to be forwarded to a Lockbox Account in the United States in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents. Each Series 2011-1 Noteholder, by accepting its Series 2011-1 Note, shall be deemed to have agreed to the foregoing notwithstanding any contrary provisions in the other Transaction Documents, and shall also agree that, for purposes of the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, the defined term “Adjusted Aggregate Receivable Balance”, when used in the definition of “Asset Deficiency”, shall mean and be a reference to the “Series 2011-1 Adjusted Receivable Balance.” Each of the Series 2011-1 Noteholders, by accepting its Series 2011-1 Note, shall be deemed to have agreed that delivery of a Lockbox Agreement for the above-described foreign accounts is not a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Supplement and that the Receivables Activity Report need not reflect the use of the term “Series 2011-1 Adjusted Receivable Balance” so long as the Series 2011-1 Adjusted Receivable Balance and the Adjusted Aggregate Receivable Balance
24
Exhibit 10.61
continue to be one and the same calculation.
