respect to any Monthly Period need not be deposited into the Collection Account
or any Series Account prior to the related Payment Date, and, when so deposited,
(x) may be deposited net of any amounts required to be distributed to Transferor
and, if GE Capital or an Affiliate thereof is Servicer, any amounts owed to the
Servicer, and (y) shall be deposited into the Finance Charge Account (in the
case of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables) and the Principal Account (in
the case of Collections of Principal Receivables (not including any Shared
Principal Collections allocated to Series 2011-1 pursuant to Section 8.5 of
the Indenture)).
19
(b) Allocations to the Series
2011-1 Noteholders. The Issuer shall on each Date of
Processing, allocate to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders the following amounts as
set forth below:
(i) Allocations of Finance
Charge Collections. The Issuer shall allocate to the Series
2011-1 Noteholders an amount equal to the product of (A) the Allocation
Percentage and (B) the aggregate Finance Charge Collections processed on such
Date of Processing and, subject to Section 4.15, shall
deposit such amount into the Finance Charge Account; provided that, with
respect to each Monthly Period falling in the Revolving Period (and with respect
to that portion of each Monthly Period in the Controlled Accumulation Period
falling on or after the day on which Collections of Principal Receivables equal
to the related Controlled Deposit Amount have been allocated pursuant to Section 4.3(b)(ii) and deposited pursuant
to Section 4.3(a)),
Collections of Finance Charge Receivables shall be transferred into the Finance
Charge Account only until such time as the aggregate amount so deposited equals
the sum (the “Target
Amount”) of (A) the fees payable to the Indenture Trustee, the Trustee
and the Administrator on the related Payment Date, (B) the Monthly Interest on
the related Payment Date, (C) if GE Capital or an Affiliate thereof is not the
Servicer, the Noteholder Servicing Fee (and if GE Capital or an Affiliate
thereof is the Servicer, then the Issuer covenants to pay directly to the
Servicer as payment of the Noteholder Servicing Fee amounts that otherwise would
have been transferred into the Finance Charge Account pursuant to this clause (C)), and (D)
any amount required to be deposited in the Reserve Account and the Spread
Account on the related Payment Date; provided further, that,
notwithstanding the preceding proviso, if on any Business Day the Issuer
determines that the Target Amount for a Monthly Period exceeds the Target Amount
for that Monthly Period as previously calculated by Issuer, then (x) Issuer
shall (on the same Business Day) inform Transferor of such determination, and
(y) within two Business Days thereafter cause Transferor to deposit into the
Finance Charge Account funds in an amount equal to the amount of Collections of
Finance Charge Receivables allocated to the Noteholders for that Monthly Period
but not deposited into the Finance Charge Account due to the operation of the
preceding proviso (but not in excess of the amount required so that the
aggregate amount deposited for the subject Monthly Period equals the Target
Amount); and provided, further, that if on
any Transfer Date the Free Equity Amount is less than the Minimum Free Equity
Amount after giving effect to all transfers and deposits on that Transfer Date,
the Issuer shall cause Transferor, on that Transfer Date, to deposit into the
Principal Account funds in an amount equal
to the amounts of Available Finance Charge Collections that are required to be
treated as Available Principal Collections pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(vi)
and (vii) but
are not available from funds in the Finance Charge Account as a result of the
operation of the second preceding proviso.
20
With
respect to any Monthly Period when deposits of Collections of Finance Charge
Receivables into the Finance Charge Account are limited to deposits up to the
Target Amount in accordance with clause (i) above,
notwithstanding such limitation: (1) “Reallocated Principal
Collections” for the related Transfer Date shall be calculated as if the
full amount of Finance Charge Collections allocated to the Series 2011-1
Noteholders during that Monthly Period had been deposited in the Finance Charge
Account and applied on the related Payment Date in accordance with Section 4.4(a); and
(2) Collections of Finance Charge Receivables released to Transferor pursuant to
clause (i)
above shall be deemed, for purposes of all calculations under this Indenture
Supplement, to have been applied to the items specified in Section 4.4(a) to
which such amounts would have been applied (and in the priority in which they
would have been applied) had such amounts been available in the Finance Charge
Account on the related Payment Date. To avoid doubt, the calculations
referred to in the preceding clause (2) include
the calculations required by clause (b)(iv) of the
definition of Collateral Amount.
(ii) Allocations of Principal
Collections. The Issuer shall allocate to the Series 2011-1
Noteholders the following amounts as set forth below:
(x) Allocations During the
Revolving Period.
(1) During
the Revolving Period an amount equal to the product of the Allocation Percentage
and the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of
Processing, shall be allocated to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders and first, if
any other Principal Sharing Series is outstanding and in its accumulation period
or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account for application, to
the extent necessary, as Shared Principal Collections to other Principal Sharing
Series on the related Payment Date, second deposited in the Excess Funding
Account to the extent necessary so that the Free Equity Amount is not less than
the Minimum Free Equity Amount and third paid to the holders of the Transferor
Interest.
(2) With
respect to each Monthly Period falling in the Revolving Period, to the extent
that Collections of Principal Receivables allocated to the Series 2011-1
Noteholders pursuant to this Section 4.3(b)(ii)
are paid to Transferor, the Issuer shall cause Transferor to make an amount
equal to the Reallocated Principal Collections for the related Transfer Date
available on that Transfer Date for application in accordance with Section
4.7.
(y) Allocations During the
Controlled Accumulation Period. During the Controlled
Accumulation Period an amount equal to the product of the Allocation
Percentage and the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such
Date of Processing (the product for any such date is hereinafter referred to as
a “Percentage
Allocation”) shall be allocated to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders and
transferred to the Principal Account until applied as provided herein; provided, however, that if the
sum of such Percentage Allocation and all preceding Percentage Allocations with
respect to the same Monthly Period exceeds the Controlled Deposit Amount during
the Controlled Accumulation Period for the related Payment Date, then such
excess shall not be treated as a Percentage Allocation and shall be first, if
any other Principal Sharing Series is outstanding and in its accumulation period
or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account for application, to
the extent necessary, as Shared Principal Collections to other Principal Sharing
Series on the related Payment Date, second deposited in the Excess Funding
Account to the extent necessary so that the Free Equity Amount is not less than
the Minimum Free Equity Amount and third paid to the holders of the Transferor
Interest.
21
(z) Allocations During the Early
Amortization Period. During the Early Amortization Period, an
amount equal to the product of the Allocation Percentage and the
aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of Processing
shall be allocated to the 2011-1 Noteholders and transferred to the Principal
Account until applied as provided herein; provided, however, that after
the date on which an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the Note
Principal Balance has been deposited into the Principal Account such amount
shall be first, if any other Principal Sharing Series is outstanding and in its
accumulation period or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account
for application, to the extent necessary, as Shared Principal Collections to
other Principal Sharing Series on the related Payment Date, second deposited in
the Excess Funding Account to the extent necessary so that the Free Equity
Amount is not less than the Minimum Free Equity Amount and third paid to the
holders of the Transferor Interest.
SECTION

Series 2011-1 Noteholder (at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note
Register), except that for any Series 2011-1 Notes registered in the name of the
nominee of a Clearing Agency, such payment shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds and (ii) except as provided in Section 2.7(b) of the
Indenture, without presentation or surrender of any Series 2011-1 Note or the
making of any notation thereon.
SECTION
4.6. Investor
Charge-Offs. On each Determination Date, the Issuer shall
calculate the Investor Default Amount and any Investor Uncovered Dilution Amount
for the preceding Monthly Period. If, on any Transfer Date, the sum
of the Investor Default Amount and any Investor Uncovered Dilution Amount for
the preceding Monthly Period exceeds the amount of Available Finance Charge
Collections allocated with respect thereto pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(vi)
with respect to such Transfer Date, the Collateral Amount will be reduced (but
not below zero) by the amount of such excess (such reduction, an “Investor
Charge-Off”).
SECTION
4.7. Reallocated Principal
Collections. On each Transfer Date, the Issuer shall apply
Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to that Transfer Date, to fund
any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in Sections 4.4(a)(i),

aggregate amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to all the
Excess Allocation Series in Group One for such Monthly Period and (y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Finance Charge Shortfall for Series
2011-1 for such Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the aggregate
amount of Finance Charge Shortfalls for all the Excess Allocation Series in
Group One, in each case with respect to payments to be made on or prior to the
Payment Date following such Monthly Period. The “Finance Charge
Shortfall” for Series 2011-1 for any date on which Excess Finance Charge
Collections are allocated pursuant to Section 8.6 of the

with respect to the next following Payment Date over (b) the
Available Finance Charge Collections with respect to the related Monthly Period
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to Excess Finance Charge
Collections).
26
SECTION

Principal Collections. Subject to Section 8.5 of
the Indenture, Shared Principal Collections allocable to Series 2011-1 with
respect to any Monthly Period will be equal to the product of (x) the aggregate
amount of Shared Principal Collections with respect to all Principal Sharing
Series for such Monthly Period and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the

denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all the
Series which are Principal Sharing Series, in each case with respect to payments
to be made on or prior to the Payment Date following such Monthly
Period. The “Principal Shortfall”
for Series 2011-1 for any date on which Shared Principal Collections are
allocated pursuant to Section 8.5 of the
Indenture will be equal to (a) for any allocation date with respect to the
Revolving Period or any allocation date during the Early Amortization Period
prior to the earlier of (i) the end of the Monthly Period immediately preceding
the Expected Principal Payment Date and (ii) the date on which all outstanding
Series are in early amortization periods, zero, (b) for any allocation date with
respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the excess, if any, of the
Controlled Deposit Amount with respect to the next following Payment Date over the amount of
Available Principal Collections for the related Monthly Period (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections or amounts
available to be treated as Available Principal Collections pursuant to clause (xiii) of
Section 4.4(a))
and (c) for any allocation date on or after the earlier of (i) the end of the
Monthly Period immediately preceding the Expected Principal Payment Date and
(ii) the date on which all outstanding Series are in early amortization periods,
the Note Principal Balance.
SECTION
4.10. Reserve
Account.
(a) On
each Transfer Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) accrued since the preceding Transfer Date on funds on deposit in the
Reserve Account shall be retained in the Reserve Account (to the extent that the
Available Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required Reserve Account
Amount) and any remaining interest and earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) shall be deposited into the Finance Charge Account and included in
Available Finance Charge Collections for the related Monthly
Period. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the
balance in the Reserve Account for any reason under this Indenture Supplement,
except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on
such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(b) On
or before each Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period
and on or before the first Transfer Date with respect to the Early Amortization
Period, the Issuer shall calculate the Reserve Draw Amount; provided, however, that such
amount will be reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available for
deposit in the Reserve Account under Section 4.4(a)(viii) on
the following Payment Date.
(c) If
for any Transfer Date the Reserve Draw Amount is greater than zero, the Reserve
Draw Amount, up to the Available Reserve Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from
the Reserve Account on such Transfer Date by the Issuer and deposited into the
Finance Charge Account for application as Available Finance Charge Collections
on the following Payment Date.
27
(d) If
the Reserve Account Surplus on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to all
deposits to and withdrawals from the Reserve Account with respect to such
Transfer Date, is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee, acting in accordance
with the written instructions of the Issuer, shall withdraw from the Reserve
Account an amount equal to such Reserve Account Surplus and distribute any such
amounts to the holders of the Transferor Interest.
(e) Upon
the earliest to occur of (i) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article VIII of
the Trust Agreement, (ii) the first Transfer Date relating to the Early
Amortization Period and (iii) the Expected Principal Payment Date, the Issuer,
after the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders
that are payable from the Reserve Account as provided herein, shall withdraw
from the Reserve Account all amounts, if any, on deposit in the Reserve Account
and distribute any such amounts to the holders of the Transferor
Interest. The Reserve Account shall thereafter be deemed to have
terminated for purposes of this Indenture Supplement.
SECTION
4.11. Spread
Account.
(a) On
or before each Transfer Date, if the aggregate amount of Available Finance
Charge Collections available for application pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(v) is
less than the aggregate amount required to be deposited pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(v),
the Issuer shall withdraw from the Spread Account the amount of such deficiency
up to the Available Spread Account Amount and if the Available Spread Account
Amount is less than such deficiency, Investment Earnings credited to the Spread
Account and shall apply such amount in accordance with Section
4.4(a)(v).
(b) Unless
an Early Amortization Event occurs, the Issuer will withdraw from the Spread
Account and deposit in the Collection Account for payment to the Class C
Noteholders on the Expected Principal Payment Date for the Class C Notes an
amount equal to the lesser of: (i) the amount on deposit in the
Spread Account after application of any amounts set forth in clause (a) above
and (ii) the Class C Note Principal Balance.
(c) Upon
an Early Amortization Event, the amount, if any, remaining on deposit in the
Spread Account, after making the payments described in clause (a) above, shall
be applied to pay principal on the Class C Notes on the earlier of the Series
Maturity Date and the first Payment Date on which the Class A Note Principal
Balance and the Class B Note Principal Balance have been paid in
full.
(d) On
any day following the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Series
2011-1 that has resulted in the acceleration of the Series 2011-1 Notes, the
Issuer shall withdraw from the Spread Account the Available Spread Account
Amount and deposit such amount in the Distribution Account for payment to the
Series 2011-1 Notes in the following order of priority until all amounts owed to
such Noteholders have been paid in full: (i) the Class C Noteholders, (ii) the
Class A Noteholders and (iii) the Class B Noteholders.
(e) If
on any Payment Date, after giving effect to all withdrawals from the Spread
Account, the Available Spread Account Amount is less than the Required Spread
Account Amount then in effect, Available Finance Charge Collections shall be
deposited into the Spread Account pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(ix) up
to the amount of the Spread Account Deficiency.
28
(f) If,
after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from the Spread Account
with respect to any Payment Date, the amount on deposit in the Spread Account
exceeds the Required Spread Account Amount, the Issuer shall withdraw an amount
equal to such excess from the Spread Account and distribute such amount to the
Transferor. On the date on which the Class C Note Principal Balance
has been paid in full, after making any payments to the Noteholders required
pursuant to Sections
4.11(a), (b), (c) and (d), the Issuer shall
withdraw from the Spread Account all amounts then remaining in the Spread
Account and pay such amounts to the holders of the Transferor
Interest.
SECTION

Accounts. i) To the extent there are uninvested
amounts deposited in the Series Accounts, the Issuer shall cause such amounts to
be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the Issuer that mature no later
than the following Transfer Date.
(b) On
each Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period and on the
first Transfer Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, the Issuer
shall transfer from the Principal Accumulation Account to the Finance Charge
Account the Principal Accumulation Investment Proceeds on deposit in the
Principal Accumulation Account for application as Available Finance Charge

Accumulation Investment Proceeds (including reinvested interest) shall not be
considered part of the amounts on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account
for purposes of this Indenture Supplement.
(d) On
each Transfer Date (but subject to Section 4.11(a)), the
Investment Earnings, if any, credited since the preceding Transfer Date on funds
on deposit in the Spread Account shall be retained in the Spread Account (to the
extent that the Available Spread Account Amount is less than the Required Spread
Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the holders of the
Transferor Interest. For purposes of determining the availability of
funds or the balance in the Spread Account for any reason under this Indenture
Supplement (subject to Section 4.11(a)), all
Investment Earnings shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit; provided that after
the maturity of the Series 2011-1 Notes has been accelerated as a result of an
Event of Default, all Investment Earnings shall be added to the balance on
deposit in the Spread Account and treated like the rest of the Available Spread
Account Amount.
SECTION
4.13. Controlled Accumulation
Period. The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to
commence at the beginning of business on September 22, 2013; provided that if the
Controlled Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) on any
Determination Date is less than or more than the number of months in the
scheduled Controlled Accumulation Period, upon written notice to the Indenture
Trustee, with a copy to each Rating Agency, the Issuer shall either postpone or
accelerate, as applicable, the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period
actually commences, so that, as a result, the number of Monthly Periods in the
Controlled Accumulation Period will equal the Controlled Accumulation Period
Length; provided that the
length of the Controlled Accumulation Period will not be less than one
month. The “Controlled Accumulation
Period Length” will mean a number of whole months such that the amount
available for payment of principal on the Notes on the Expected Principal
Payment Date is expected to equal or exceed the Note Principal Balance, assuming
for this purpose that (1) the payment rate with respect to Principal Collections
remains constant at the lowest level of such payment rate during the twelve
preceding Monthly Periods, (2) the total amount of Principal Receivables in the
Trust (and the principal amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account, if
any) remains constant at the level on such date of determination, (3) no Early
Amortization Event with respect to any Series will subsequently occur and (4) no
additional Series (other than any Series being issued on such date of
determination) will be subsequently issued. Any notice by Issuer
modifying the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period pursuant to
this Section 4.13
shall specify (i) the Controlled Accumulation Period Length, (ii) the
commencement date of the Controlled Accumulation Period and (iii) the Controlled
Accumulation Amount with respect to each Monthly Period during the Controlled
Accumulation Period.

Trustee shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate per annum displayed in
the Bloomberg Financial Markets system as the composite offered rate for London
interbank deposits for a period of the Designated Maturity, as of 11:00 a.m.,
London time, on that date. If that rate does not appear on that
system, LIBOR for that Interest Period will be the rate per annum shown on page
“LIBOR01” of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service or such other page as may
replace the “LIBOR01” page on that service for the purpose of displaying London
interbank offered rates of major banks as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the
LIBOR Determination Date; provided that if at
least two rates appear on that page, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the
displayed rates and if fewer than two rates are displayed, or if no rate is
relevant, the rate for that Interest Period shall be determined on the basis of
the rates at which deposits in United States dollars 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 for the period of the Designated
Maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall request the principal London
office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its
rate. If at least two (2) such quotations are provided, the rate for
that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the
quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations are provided as
requested, the rate for that Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of the
rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Servicer, at
approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United
States dollars to leading European banks for a period of the Designated
Maturity.
(b) The
Class A Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately
preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee
at its corporate trust office at (000) 000-0000 or such other telephone number
as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose by prior
written notice by the Indenture Trustee to each Series 2011-1 Noteholder from
time to time.
(c) On
each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Issuer by
facsimile transmission, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest
Period.

LAW. (a) THIS INDENTURE SUPPLEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING
HEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY
AND PERFORMANCE, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401(1) OF THE

SCHEDULE
I
PERFECTION
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES
AND
COVENANTS (WITH RESPECT TO RECEIVABLES)
(a) In
addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the
Indenture, the Issuer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Indenture
Trustee as follows as of the Closing Date:
(1) The
Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the
applicable UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Indenture Trustee, which
security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such
against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer.
(2) The
Receivables constitute either “accounts” or “general intangibles” within the
meaning of the applicable UCC.
(3) The
Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear
of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.
(4) There
are no consents or approvals required for the pledge of the Receivables to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.
(5) The
Issuer (or the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer) has caused the filing of
all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the
appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security
interest granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture in the
Receivables.
(6) Other
than the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the
Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security
interest in, or otherwise conveyed the Receivables. The Issuer has
not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements
against the Issuer that include a description of the Receivables, except for the
financing statement filed pursuant to the Indenture.
(7) Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Indenture, the representations and warranties set
forth in this Schedule
I shall be continuing, and remain in full force and effect, until such
time as the Series 2011-1 Notes are retired.
(b) The
Indenture Trustee covenants that it shall not, without satisfying the Rating
Agency Condition, waive a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in
this Schedule
I.
(c) The
Issuer covenants that in order to evidence the interests of the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, the Issuer shall take such action, or
execute and deliver such instruments as may be necessary or advisable
(including, without limitation, such actions as are requested by the Indenture
Trustee) to maintain and perfect, as a first priority interest, the Indenture
Trustee’s security interest in the Receivables.
