subsections 4.09(e)(i), (ii) and (iii) above, and the denominator of which
is equal to the sum of the Available Investor Principal Collections
available for sharing as specified in the related Series Supplement for
each other Series and (2) the Principal Shortfalls for all Series and (B)
the Available Investor Principal Collections, shall remain in the Principal
Account to be treated as Excess Principal Collections and applied to Series
other than this Series 1999-A; and
(v) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the Available
Investor Principal Collections over (B) the applications specified in
subsection 4.09(e)(i) through (iv) above shall be paid to the Holder of the

(ii) with the prior written consent of the Collateral Interest Agent, Excess
Principal Collections from other Series up to the excess of the Partial

SECTION 4.10. Payment of Class A Certificate and Class B Certificate
------------------------------------------------------
Interest. On each Distribution Date and Interest Payment Date, the Paying Agent
--------
shall pay in accordance with Section 5.01 of the Agreement (i) to the Class A
Certificateholders from the Distribution Account the respective amounts owing to
such Class and deposited into the Distribution Account pursuant to subsections
4.09(a)(i), 4.09(e)(i), 4.09(f)(i), 4.13(a), 4.14(a)(i), 4.14(b)(i) and 4.17 of
the Agreement on the related Transfer Date for such Distribution Date and

from the Distribution Account the respective amounts owing to such class and
deposited into the Distribution Account pursuant to subsections 4.09(b)(i),
4.09(e)(ii), 4.09(f)(i), 4.13(c), 4.14(a)(i)(y) and 4.17 of the Agreement on the
related Transfer Date.
SECTION 4.11. Servicer Advances.
-----------------
In the event that, on any Interest Payment Date or any other date
after giving effect to payments to be made on such date pursuant to Section
5.01, a Conduit Purchaser does not have sufficient funds to pay the interest
component of Related Commercial Paper and the dealer fees and commissions due
and payable on such day, the Servicer shall make an advance to the extent that
the Servicer deems such advance recoverable from Finance Charge Collections
pursuant to subsections 4.09(a)(i-a), 4.09(b)(a-i), 4.13(f) and 4.17 hereof in
an amount equal to such deficiency (a "Servicer Advance"), provided, however,
---------------- -------- -------
that the Servicer shall not be obligated to make a remittance as provided in
this Section 4.11 if the related Certificate Agent notifies the Servicer that
the amount with respect to such amount otherwise payable by the Servicer
pursuant to this Section 4.11 will be obtained by such Conduit Purchaser from
the proceeds of Related Commercial Paper issued on such day or from funds
obtained from the related liquidity provider on such day. Amounts required to
be remitted to such Conduit Purchaser pursuant to this Section 4.11 shall be
remitted in immediately available funds to the related Certificate Agent no
later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date due; provided, however
-------- -------
that in lieu of such direct payment by the Servicer, to the extent of available
funds, the Servicer may instruct the Trustee in writing to remit such amounts
from the Investor Percentage of Collections in respect of Finance Charge
Receivables on deposit in the Finance Charge Account, any such payment to be
netted from amounts to be paid pursuant to subsection 4.09(a)(i). The Servicer
shall record in its books and records such withdrawal and the
33
application of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables and net such amounts so
applied from the amounts due under subsection 4.09(a)(i), 4.09(b)(i) or 4.13(f),
whichever is appropriate, hereof on the Transfer Date for such Collection
Period.
SECTION 4.12. Investor Charge-Offs.
--------------------
(a) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Class A
Investor Default Amount. If on any Distribution Date, the Class A Investor
Default Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of the amount
allocated with respect thereto pursuant to subsection 4.09(a)(iii), subsection
4.13(a) and Section 4.14 of the Agreement with respect to the Monthly Period
immediately preceding such Distribution Date, the Collateral Invested Amount
will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not more than the Collateral
Invested Amount for such Distribution Date. In the event that, but for the
limitation on the amount of such reduction in the preceding sentence, such
reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a negative number,
the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested
Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount
would have been reduced below zero. In the event that such reduction 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, pro
---
rata, by the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount would have been
----
reduced below zero, but not more than the Class A Investor Default Amount
for such Distribution Date (a "Class A Investor Charge-Off"). If the Class
---------------------------
A Invested Amount has been reduced by the amount of any Class A Investor Charge-
Off, it will be reimbursed on any Distribution Date (but not by an amount in
excess of the aggregate Class A Investor Charge-Offs) by the amount of Excess
Finance Charge Collections allocated and available for such purpose pursuant to
subsection 4.13(b) of the Agreement.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Class
B Investor Default Amount. If on any Distribution Date, the Class B Investor
Default Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Finance
Charge Collections and Reallocated Principal Collections which are allocated and
available to fund such amount pursuant to subsection 4.13(d) and Section 4.14 of
the Agreement, the Collateral Invested Amount (after giving effect to any
adjustments with respect thereto as described in the preceding paragraph) will
be reduced by the amount of such excess but not more than the Collateral
Invested Amount for such Distribution Date. In the event that, but for the
limitation on the amount of such reduction in the preceding sentence, such
reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a negative number,
the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested
Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount
would have been reduced below zero, but not more than the Class B Investor
Default Amount for such Distribution Date (a "Class B Investor Charge-Off").
---------------------------
The Class B Invested Amount will also be reduced by the amount of Reallocated
Class B Principal Collections in excess of the Collateral Invested Amount
pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Agreement and the amount of any portion of the
Class B Invested Amount allocated to the Class A Certificates to avoid a
reduction in the Class A Invested Amount pursuant to subsection 4.12(a) of the
Agreement. The Class B Invested Amount will thereafter be reimbursed (but not by
an amount in excess of the unpaid principal balance of the Class B Certificates)
on any Distribution Date by the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections
allocated and available for that purpose as described under subsection 4.13(e)
of the Agreement.
34
(c) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall calculate the
Collateral Investor Default Amount. If on any Distribution Date, the Collateral
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of the amount
of Excess Finance Charge Collections which are allocated and available to fund
such amount pursuant to subsection 4.13(h) of the Agreement, the Collateral
Invested Amount (after giving effect to any adjustments with respect thereto as
described in the preceding paragraphs) will be reduced by the amount of such
excess but not more than the Collateral Invested Amount for such Distribution
Date (a "Collateral Investor Charge-Off"). The Collateral Invested Amount will
------------------------------
also be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections pursuant to
Section 4.14 of the Agreement and the amount of any portion of the Collateral
Invested Amount allocated to the Class A Certificates or the Class B
Certificates to avoid a reduction in the Class A Invested Amount, pursuant to
subsection 4.12(a) of the Agreement, or the Class B Invested Amount, pursuant to
subsection 4.12(b) of the Agreement, respectively. The Collateral Invested
Amount will thereafter be reimbursed (but not by an amount in excess of the
unpaid principal balance of the Collateral Invested Amount) on any Distribution
Date by the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and available
for that purpose as described under subsection 4.13(i) of the Agreement.
SECTION 4.13. Excess Finance Charge Collections for the Series 1999-A
-------------------------------------------------------
Certificates. On each Transfer Date, the Servicer will apply or cause the
------------
Trustee to apply Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to the related
Monthly Period, to make the following distributions in the following priority:
(a) an amount equal to the Class A Required Amount, if any, with
respect to the related Monthly Period will be used to fund the Class A Required
Amount and be applied in accordance with subsection 4.09(a) of the Agreement;
(b) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Class A Investor
Charge-Offs, which have not been previously reimbursed (after giving effect to
the allocation with respect to the related Distribution Date of certain other
amounts applied for that purpose) will be distributed to the Holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate on Transfer Dates with respect to the
Revolving Period, but not exceeding the Transferor Interest in Principal
Receivables on such day (after giving effect to any new Principal Receivables
transferred to the Trust on such day) and on Transfer Dates with respect to the
Amortization Period or any Partial Amortization Period, will be deposited in the
Principal Account and treated as a portion of Available Investor Principal
Collections for the related Distribution Date;
(c) an amount equal to Class B Monthly Interest with respect to the
related Monthly Period but which has not been previously deposited in the
Distribution Account for the benefit of the Class B Certificateholders either on
such Transfer Date or on a prior Transfer Date and any other amounts due and
owing on the related Distribution Date pursuant to subsection 4.09(b)(i) of the
Agreement will be deposited into the Distribution Account for payment to the
Class B Certificateholders;
(d) an amount equal to the aggregate Class B Investor Default Amount,
if any, for the related Distribution Date will be distributed to the holder of
the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate on Transfer Dates with respect to the
Revolving Period (but not exceeding the Transferor Interest in Principal
Receivables on such day (after giving effect to any new Principal
35
Receivables transferred to the Trust on such day)), and on Transfer Dates with
respect to the Amortization Period or any Partial Amortization Period will be
deposited in the Principal Account and treated as a portion of Available
Investor Principal Collections for the related Distribution Date;
(e) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Class B
Invested Amount has been reduced for reasons other than the payment of principal
to the Class B Certificateholders (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of
such reductions which have not been previously reimbursed) will be distributed
to the holder of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate on Transfer Dates with
respect to the Revolving Period, but not in an amount exceeding the Transferor
Interest in Principal Receivables on such day (after giving effect to any new
Principal Receivables transferred to the Trust on such day) and on Transfer
Dates with respect to the Amortization Period or any Partial Amortization Period
will be deposited in the Principal Account and treated as a portion of Available
Investor Principal Collections for the related Distribution Date;
(f) first, an amount equal to any unreimbursed Servicer Advances
-----
with respect to Collateral Monthly Interest shall be paid to the Servicer, and
second, an amount equal to the Collateral Monthly Interest (less the amount of
------
any Servicer Advance with respect to Collateral Monthly Interest or any funds
advanced from the Finance Charge Account pursuant to Section 4.11 on the
immediately preceding Interest Payment Date or the preceding Monthly Period) for
such Transfer Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Monthly Interest
----
previously due but not paid to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior
Transfer Date will be paid to the Collateral Interest Holder in accordance with
subsection 5.01(c) of the Agreement;
(g) an amount equal to the Unpaid Investor Monthly Servicing Fee, with
respect to the related Distribution Date, will be paid to the Servicer;
(h) an amount equal to the aggregate Collateral Default Amount, if
any, for the related Distribution Date will be distributed to the holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate on Transfer Dates with respect to the
Revolving Period (but not exceeding the Transferor Interest in Principal
Receivables on such day (after giving effect to any new Principal Receivables
transferred to the Trust on such day)), and on Transfer Dates with respect to
the Amortization Period or any Partial Amortization Period will be deposited in
the Principal Account and treated as a portion of Available Investor Principal
Collections for the related Distribution Date;
(i) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Collateral
Invested Amount has been reduced below the Required Collateral Invested Amount
for reasons other than the payment of principal to the Collateral Interest
Holder (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions which have
not been previously reimbursed) will be distributed to the holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate on Transfer Dates with respect to the
Revolving Period, but not in an amount exceeding the Transferor Interest in
Principal Receivables on such day (after giving effect to any new Principal
Receivables transferred to the Trust on such day) and on Transfer Dates with
respect to the Amortization Period or any Partial Amortization Period will be
deposited in the Principal Account and treated as a portion of Available
Investor Principal Collections for the related Distribution Date;
36
(j) an amount equal to the Class A Increase Cost Amounts for such
Transfer Date remaining unpaid after the application of Class A Available Funds
pursuant to subsection 4.09(a)(iv) on such Transfer Date shall be held in the
Finance Charge Account, invested overnight in Permitted Investments and paid to
the CPA Agent on the related Distribution Date in accordance with the applicable
Certificate Purchase Agreement;
(k) an amount equal to the Class B Increase Cost Amount for such
Transfer Date remaining unpaid after the application of Class B Available Funds
pursuant to subsection 4.09(b)(iii) on such Transfer Date shall be held in the
Finance Charge Account, invested overnight in Permitted Investment and paid to
the CPA Agent on the related Distribution Date in accordance with the
Certificate Purchase Agreement;
(l) an amount equal to the aggregate of any other amounts then
required to be applied pursuant to the Loan Agreement, including, without
limitation, any Collateral Increase Cost Amount, shall be paid to the Collateral
Interest Holder in accordance with the Loan Agreement; and
(m) the balance to the Holder of the Exchangeable Transferor
Certificates.
SECTION 4.14. Reallocated Principal Collections for the Series 1999-A
-------------------------------------------------------
Certificates.
------------
(a) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer will apply or cause the
Trustee to apply an amount, not to exceed the Collateral Invested Amount, equal
to the product of (a)(i) during the Revolving Period, the Collateral Floating
Allocation Percentage or (ii) during an Amortization Period or any Partial
Amortization Period, the Collateral Fixed/Floating Allocation Percentage and (b)
the amount of Collections of Principal Receivables with respect to the related
Monthly Period in the following priority (such collections applied in accordance
with clause (i) below are called "Reallocated Collateral Principal
--------------------------------
Collections"):
-----------
(i) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the excess, if any, of the
Class A Required Amount with respect to such related Monthly Period over
the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to such
related Monthly Period and (y) the Class B Required Amount with respect to
the related Monthly Period which amount shall be applied in priority first
pursuant to subsections 4.09(a)(i) through (iii) of the Agreement and then
pursuant to subsections 4.09(b)(i) and (ii) and 4.13(c) and (d) of the
Agreement; and
(ii) any such collections not applied in the foregoing manner (and
therefore not constituting Reallocated Collateral Principal Collections)
will, on Distribution Dates with respect to the Revolving Period, be
applied as Available Investor Principal Collections.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer will apply or cause the
Trustee to apply an amount, not to exceed the Class B Invested Amount, equal to
the product of (a)(i) during the Revolving Period, the Class B Floating
Allocation Percentage or (ii) during an Amortization Period or any Partial
Amortization Period, the Class B Fixed/Floating Allocation Percentage and (b)
the amount of Collections of Principal Receivables with respect to the related

Required Amount with respect to such related Monthly Period over the sum of
(x) the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to such
related Monthly Period and (y) the amount of Reallocated Collateral
Principal Collections applied with respect thereto for the related Monthly
Period shall be applied in priority pursuant to subsection 4.09(a)(i)
through (iii) of the Agreement; and

Available Investor Principal Collections.
On each Distribution Date the Collateral Invested Amount shall be
reduced by the amount of Reallocated Collateral Principal Collections and by the
amount of Reallocated Class B Principal Collections for such Distribution Date.
In the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to
be a negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero
and the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which the
Collateral Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero. In the event
that the reallocation of Collections of Principal Receivables would cause the
Class B Invested Amount to be a negative number on any Distribution Date,
Collections of Principal Receivables shall be reallocated on such Distribution
Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount which would cause the Class
B Invested Amount to be reduced to zero.
SECTION 4.15. Certificate Principal Balance Increases.

the payment
38
instructions for remittance of the proceeds of such requested Certificate
Principal Balance Increase. The proceeds of such Certificate Principal Balance

previously extended pursuant to this Section 4.16), the Transferor may, by
written notice to the Trustee and the Certificate Agents (an "Extension
---------
Notice"), elect to extend the Revolving Period for the number of months stated
------
in such notice. Such extension shall be effective only if (determined without
regard to such proposed extension), the Transferor shall have obtained not less

(or the portion thereof that is being refinanced) to be conveyed to one or more
Persons (who shall be the holders of a new Series issued substantially
contemporaneously with such prepayment) for a cash purchase price in an amount
equal to the Invested Amount (or the portion thereof that is being refinanced),
and (ii) distributing from the Finance Charge Account, an amount equal to (A)
accrued and unpaid interest on the Invested Amount (or the portion thereof that
is being conveyed) to, but not including the Refinancing Date, plus (B) all
----
other amounts due and owing under the Certificate Purchase Agreement and the
Loan Agreement (together with the amount set forth in clause (i) above, the

Exchangeable Transferor Certificate will represent the interest in the Principal
Receivables not represented by the Class A Certificates, the Class B
Certificates and the Collateral Interest (together the "Investor Certificates")
or any other Series of Certificates. The Exchangeable Transferor Certificate
may be exchanged by the Transferor pursuant to the Agreement for one or

the respective meanings assigned to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
This Class A Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions
and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Class A
Certificateholder, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents and by which the
Class A Certificateholder is bound.
