Issuer shall be made no later than the first day of the scheduled Due Period immediately preceding the first Due Period in the Accumulation Period (after giving effect to any prior delay in the commencement of the Accumulation Period pursuant to this Section 2.10).
The Calculation Agent on behalf of the Issuer shall cause such delay if the Calculation Agent determines in good faith that each of the following conditions will be satisfied: (i) the Calculation Agent on behalf of the Issuer delivers to the Indenture Trustee a certificate to the effect that the Calculation Agent on behalf of the Issuer reasonably believes that, based on the payment rate and the anticipated availability of Series Principal Amounts and Reallocated Principal Amounts, the delay in the commencement of the Accumulation Period for the Class A(2009-2) Notes will not result in any Tranche of Notes not being paid in full on the relevant Expected Maturity Date; (ii) such delay is permitted under the Series 2007-CC Series Supplement or any other applicable agreement relating to any Additional Collateral Certificate; and (iii) the Accumulation Amount, the Accumulation Commencement Date and the Accumulation Period Length shall have been adjusted. The Calculation Agent on behalf of the Issuer shall not be required to obtain confirmation from the applicable Note Rating Agencies that such delay in the commencement of the Accumulation Period will not result in a Ratings Effect for any Tranche of Outstanding DiscoverSeries Notes, unless at the time of such delay there is a Tranche of Outstanding DiscoverSeries Notes, which were issued prior to January 1, 2009 and for which the commencement of the Accumulation Period for such Tranche of Notes has already been delayed pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture Supplement. If such confirmation from the applicable Note Rating Agency is not required, the Calculation Agent on behalf of the Issuer shall provide written notice to each applicable Note Rating Agency in the event that the commencement of the Accumulation Period for the Class A(2009-2) Notes is delayed pursuant to this Section 2.10
