fifteenth day of the calendar month in which such Additional Issuance Date
occurs to but excluding such Additional Issuance Date and the denominator of
which is 360, times (c) the increase in the Invested Amount after giving effect
to the related Additional Issuance and (d) the Class A Invested Percentage with

Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount are paid in full (the "L/C
Monthly Servicing Fee"), shall be equal to one-twelfth of the product of (a) the
Net Servicing Fee Rate and (b) the L/C Invested Amount, if any, as of the last
day of the Due Period second preceding such Distribution Date.
On each Distribution Date, the Sellers shall pay a portion of
the Servicing Fee with respect to the related Due Period in an amount equal to
one-twelfth of the product of (a) the Servicing Fee Rate, (b) the Sellers'
Participation Amount as of the last day of the Due Period second preceding such
Distribution Date (or, if a Lump Addition occurs or a removal of Accounts
pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Agreement occurs in the following Due Period,
the weighted average of the Sellers' Participation Amount on the date on which
such Lump Addition or removal of Accounts occurs (after giving effect thereto)
and the last day of the second preceding Due Period) and (c) the Series 1999-1
Allocation Percentage for the related Due Period. In no event shall the Trust,

Final Payment Date, all amounts on deposit in the Class A Principal
Funding Account, to the extent of the Class A Invested Amount, shall be
distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A
Certificateholders.
(b) The Servicer shall make (if Citibank (South Dakota) is the
Servicer and the Collection Account is maintained with Citibank (South Dakota))
or shall cause the Trustee to make the following distributions at the following
times from the Class B Interest Funding Account and the Collection Account:
(i) on each Payment Date, all amounts on deposit in the Class

payment to the Class B Certificateholders; and
(ii) on each Special Payment Date and on the Class B Expected
Final Payment Date, all amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
which are to be distributed to the Class B Certificateholders pursuant
to this Series Supplement, to the extent of the principal amount of the
Class B Certificates, shall be distributed to the Paying Agent for
payment to the Class B Certificateholders.
(c) The distributions to be made pursuant to this Section are
subject to the provisions of Sections 2.06, 9.02, 10.01 and 12.02 of the
Agreement and Sections 8.01 and 8.02 of this Series Supplement.
Section 4.08. Investor Charge-Offs. (a) If on any Distribution
Date the Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (x) the
amount of Subordinated Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution
Date, (y) the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to such
Distribution Date and (z) the Available Shared Enhancement Amount with respect
to such Distribution Date, the L/C Invested Amount shall be reduced by the
amount of such excess, but not by more than the Class A Investor Default Amount
for such Distribution Date. In the event that such reduction (but for the
proviso in the definition of L/C Invested Amount) would cause the L/C Invested
Amount to be a negative number, the L/C Invested Amount shall be reduced to
zero, and the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which
the L/C Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not by more than
the excess, if any, of the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution
Date over the amount of such reduction, if any, of the L/C Invested Amount. In
the event that such reduction would cause the Class B Invested Amount to be a
negative number, the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero, and the
36
<PAGE>
Class A Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Class B
Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not by more than the
excess, if any, of the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution
Date over the aggregate amount of the reductions, if any, of the L/C Invested
Amount and the Class B Invested Amount for such Distribution Date pursuant to
this Section 4.08(a) (a "Class A Investor Charge-Off"). Class A Investor
Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed and the Class A Invested Amount
increased (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class A Investor
Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date by the sum of (i) Allocable Miscellaneous
Payments with respect to such Distribution Date and (ii) the amount of Excess
Finance Charge Collections allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to
Section 4.09(b).
(b) If on any Distribution Date the Class B Investor Default
Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (x) the amount of Excess
Finance Charge Collections with respect to such Distribution Date which are
allocated and available to pay the Class B Investor Default Amount pursuant to
Section 4.09(d) and (y) the portion, if any, of the Available Shared Enhancement
Amount with respect to such Distribution Date (after giving effect to any draw
under the L/C (or any withdrawal from the L/C Funding Account) to fund the
Required Draw Amount with respect to such Distribution Date), then the L/C
Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such excess. In the event that
such reduction would cause the L/C Invested Amount to be a negative number, the
L/C Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount
shall be reduced by the amount by which the L/C Invested Amount would have been
reduced below zero (a "Class B Investor Charge-Off"). Class B Investor
Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed and the Class B Invested Amount
increased (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class B Investor
Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date by the sum of (i) Allocable Miscellaneous
Payments with respect to such Distribution Date (but only to the extent such
amount is not required to reimburse Class A Investor Charge-Offs pursuant to
paragraph (a) above) and (ii) the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections
allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to Section 4.09(f).
(c) If on any Distribution Date Subordinated Principal
Collections for such Distribution Date are allocated pursuant to Section
4.10(a), the L/C Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such
allocated Subordinated Principal Collections. In the event that such reduction
would cause the L/C Invested Amount to be a negative number (but for the proviso
of the definition of L/C Invested Amount), the L/C Invested Amount shall be
reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount
by which the L/C Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero.

<PAGE>
(d) If on any Distribution Date the L/C Default Amount for
such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections
with respect to such Distribution Date which are allocated and available to pay
the L/C Default Amount pursuant to Section 4.09(h), then the L/C Invested Amount
shall be reduced by the amount of such excess (an "L/C Charge-Off"). L/C
Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed and the L/C Invested Amount increased
(but not by an amount in excess of the sum of (x) the aggregate L/C Charge-Offs
and (y) the aggregate amount by which the L/C Invested Amount has been reduced
pursuant to Sections 4.08(a),(b) or (c), which in either case have not been
previously reimbursed), on any Distribution Date by the sum of (i) Allocable
Miscellaneous Payments with respect to such Distribution Date (but only to the
extent such amount is not required to reimburse Class A Investor Charge-Offs or
Class B Investor Charge-Offs pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above) and (ii)
the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and available for that
purpose pursuant to Section 4.09(i).
Section 4.09. Excess Finance Charge Collections. The Servicer
shall apply (if Citibank (South Dakota) is the Servicer and the Collection
Account is maintained with Citibank (South Dakota)) or shall cause the Trustee
to apply, on each Distribution Date (or on the related Transfer Date, if so
specified), Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to such Distribution
Date, to make the following distributions in the following priority:
(a) an amount equal to the Required Amount, if any, with
respect to such Distribution Date shall be distributed first to fund
any deficiency pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(i) or (c)(i) (but not
including any amount relating to any Class A Funding Account Shortfall)
and second to pay the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for such
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(ii) or (c)(ii), as the
case may be; provided, however, that at such time as Citibank (South
Dakota) or an Affiliate of Citibank (South Dakota) is no longer the
Servicer, such Excess Finance Charge Collections shall be distributed
second to fund any deficiency in the Class A Monthly Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date and third to pay the Class A Investor Default
Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date;
(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 on such Distribution Date of any amount
for that purpose pursuant to Section 4.08(a)(i)) shall be treated as a
portion of Investor Principal Collections with respect to such
Distribution Date;
38
<PAGE>
(c) an amount equal to (i) Class B Monthly Interest due but
not deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account on such
Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Monthly Interest
previously due but not deposited into the Class B Interest Funding
Account on a prior Distribution Date, (ii) the Cumulative Excess
Interest Amount for such Distribution Date and (iii) the amount of any
Class B Additional Interest due but not deposited into the Class B
Interest Funding Account on such Distribution Date and any Class B
Additional Interest previously due but not deposited into the Class B
Interest Funding Account on a prior Distribution Date, shall be
deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account;
(d) an amount equal to the Class B Investor Default Amount for
such Distribution Date shall be treated as a portion of Investor
Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution Date;
(e) with respect to each Distribution Date following the
Distribution Date on which the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B
Invested Amount are paid in full, provided an Economic Special Payment
Date has occurred, an amount equal to the L/C Monthly Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date shall be distributed to the Servicer (unless
such amount has been netted against deposits to the Collection
Account);
(f) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Class
B Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (c), (d) and (e)
of the definition of "Class B Invested Amount" (but not in excess of
the aggregate amount of such reductions which have not been previously
reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Investor Principal
Collections with respect to such Distribution Date;
(g) an amount equal to the "L/C Fee" (as defined in the L/C
Reimbursement Agreement) for such Distribution Date shall be
distributed to the L/C Issuer in accordance with the provisions of the
L/C Reimbursement Agreement;
(h) an amount equal to the L/C Default Amount for such
Distribution Date shall be treated as a portion of Investor Principal

reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Investor Principal
Collections with respect to such Distribution Date;
39
<PAGE>
(j) with respect to each Distribution Date prior to the
occurrence of an Economic Amortization Event, an amount equal to the
lesser of (i) the balance of such Excess Finance Charge Collections and
(ii) the excess, if any, of the Initial Available L/C Amount over the
Available Enhancement Amount
(A) if before the L/C Funding Date, shall be paid to
the L/C Issuer on the related Distribution Date for
application in accordance with the L/C Reimbursement
Agreement, or
(B) if on or after the L/C Funding Date, shall be
deposited into the L/C Funding Account on the related Transfer
Date for application in accordance with the L/C Reimbursement
Agreement; and
(k) the balance, if any, shall be distributed to the L/C
Issuer on such Distribution Date for application in accordance with the
L/C Reimbursement Agreement.
Section 4.10. Subordinated Principal Collections. The Servicer
shall apply (if Citibank (South Dakota) is the Servicer and the Collection
Account is maintained with Citibank (South Dakota)) or shall cause the Trustee
to apply, on each Distribution Date, Subordinated Principal Collections with
respect to such Distribution Date to make the following distributions in the
following priority:
(a) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Required
Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the
sum of (x) the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect
to such Distribution Date and (y) the Available Shared Enhancement
Amount with respect to such Distribution Date, shall be distributed by
the Servicer or the Trustee to fund any deficiency pursuant to Section
4.06(a)(i) and (a)(ii) or Section 4.06(c)(i) and (c)(ii), as the case
may be (but not including any amount relating to any Class A Funding
Account Shortfall), and, if Citibank (South Dakota) or an Affiliate of
Citibank (South Dakota) is no longer the Servicer, Section 4.06(a)(iii)
or (c)(iii), as the case may be; provided, however, that in the event
the Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of the
Available Shared Enhancement Amount for such Distribution Date and the
amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections and Subordinated Principal
Collections with respect to such Distribution Date, the amount drawn
under the L/C (or withdrawn from the L/C Funding Account) with respect
to such Required Amount and such Excess Finance Charge Collections and
Subordinated Principal Collections shall be applied first to pay
amounts due with respect to such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.06(a)(i) or (c)(i), as the case may be (but not including any amount
relating to any Class A Funding Account Shortfall), and second to pay
the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(ii) or (c)(ii), as the case may be;
provided further that at such time as Citibank (South Dakota) or an
40
<PAGE>
Affiliate of Citibank (South Dakota) is no longer the Servicer, the
amount drawn under the L/C (or withdrawn from the L/C Funding Account)
with respect to such Required Amount and such Excess Finance Charge
Collections and Subordinated Principal Collections shall be applied
second to fund any deficiency in the Class A Monthly Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date and third to pay the Class A Investor Default
Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date; and
(b) the balance, if any, shall be treated as a portion of
Investor Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution Date.
Section 4.11. Credit Enhancement. (a) The Servicer hereby
represents that it has obtained the L/C in favor of the Trustee solely for the
benefit of the Series 1999-1 Certificateholders. The L/C shall permit the
Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) to make drawings from time to time in an
amount up to the Available L/C Amount at such time for the purposes set forth in
Section 4.11(l). The Available L/C Amount will be reduced by the amount of each
such drawing as provided in the definition thereof set forth in Section 2.01(a).
The L/C Issuer shall not be entitled to reimbursement for any draws, interest or
fees with respect to the L/C from the Trust Assets except as specifically
provided herein and in the L/C Reimbursement Agreement.
(b) In the event at any time the short-term debt obligations
of the L/C Issuer are rated below A-1+ by Standard & Poor's or the long-term
debt obligations of the L/C Issuer are rated below Aa3 by Moody's (such event
being referred to as an "L/C Issuer Downgrade") then the Servicer will, within
30 days following such L/C Issuer Downgrade, either
(i) replace the L/C with (x) an irrevocable letter of credit
with a stated amount not less than the then Available L/C Amount and
issued by a successor L/C Issuer, or (y) any other arrangement;
provided, however, that in either case the Rating Agency Condition
shall have been satisfied; or
(ii) cause a draw to be made under the L/C in an amount equal
to the Available L/C Amount and deposit such amount into the L/C
Funding Account;
provided, however, in the event at any time the short-term debt obligations of
the L/C Issuer are rated below A-2 by Standard & Poor's or the long-term debt
obligations of the L/C Issuer are rated below Al by Moody's, the Servicer will
promptly cause a draw to be made under the L/C in an amount equal to the
Available L/C Amount and deposit such amount into the L/C Funding Account.
41
<PAGE>
(c) Before the L/C Funding Date, the Servicer shall establish
and maintain, in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the
benefit of the Series 1999-1 Certificateholders and the L/C Issuer, as their
interests appear herein, one or more Eligible Deposit Accounts (collectively,
the "L/C Funding Account"), each of which bear a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 1999-1
Certificateholders and the L/C Issuer. The Trustee shall possess all right,
title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the L/C Funding
Account and in all proceeds thereof. The L/C Funding Account shall be under the
sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 1999-1
Certificateholders and the L/C Issuer. The interest of the L/C Issuer in the L/C
Funding Account shall be subordinated to the interests of the Series 1999-1
Certificateholders as provided herein and in the L/C Reimbursement Agreement. If
at any time any account constituting the L/C Funding Account ceases to be an
Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall
within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days,
as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Eligible Deposit
Account meeting the conditions specified above, and shall transfer any affected
cash and/or any investments to such new L/C Funding Account. The Trustee, at the
direction of the Servicer, shall (i) on the date on which a draw is made under
the L/C pursuant to Section 4.11(b) (the "L/C Funding Date"), deposit the amount
of such draw in the L/C Funding Account, (ii) from and after the L/C Funding
Date, make withdrawals from the L/C Funding Account from time to time in an
amount up to the Available L/C Funding Amount at such time, for the purposes set
forth in Sections 4.11(k), 4.11(l) and 4.11(m), and (iii) on each Distribution
Date from and after the L/C Funding Date, make a deposit into the L/C Funding
Account in the amount specified in Section 4.09(j) in lieu of paying such amount
to the L/C Issuer. All withdrawals from the L/C Funding Account shall be made in
the priority set forth in this Section 4.11. The L/C Issuer shall not be
entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Assets for any withdrawals from the L/C
Funding Account except as specifically provided herein and in the L/C
Reimbursement Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement or this
Series Supplement, from and after the L/C Funding Date, the L/C Funding Account
shall replace the L/C for all purposes of this Series Supplement. As a result,
unless the context requires otherwise, any reference in this Series Supplement
to a draw under the L/C (including, without limitation, in Section 4.11(m))
shall be deemed to refer to a withdrawal from the L/C Funding Account; provided,
however, that from and after the L/C Funding Date the L/C Issuer shall still be
entitled to receive distributions pursuant to Sections 4.09(g) and (k).
42
<PAGE>
(d.1) Funds on deposit in the L/C Funding Account shall be
invested at the direction of the Servicer (or the L/C Issuer, as provided in the
L/C Reimbursement Agreement) by the Trustee in L/C Funding Account Investments.
Funds on deposit in the L/C Funding Account on any Transfer Date, after giving
effect to any withdrawals from the L/C Funding Account on such Transfer Date,
shall be invested in such investments that will mature so that such funds will
be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. The
proceeds of any such investments shall be invested in such investments that will
mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the
Transfer Date immediately following the date of such investment. The Trustee
shall maintain for the benefit of the Series 1999-1 Certificateholders and the
L/C Issuer possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any,
evidencing the L/C Funding Account Investments. 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 L/C Funding Account shall be
paid to the L/C Issuer for application in accordance with the L/C Reimbursement
Agreement. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balances
in the L/C Funding Account for any reason under this Series Supplement, all
investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on
deposit.
(e) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the amount (the "Required Draw Amount") (determined after giving effect to any
distribution to be made pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(i) or (c)(i), as the case
may be, and Section 4.06(a)(ii) or (c)(ii), as the case may be, on the related
Distribution Date) equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Required Amount, if
any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the amount of Excess
Finance Charge Collections to be allocated and available pursuant to Section
4.09(a) to fund such Required Amount on such Distribution Date.
(f) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the amount (the "Interest Draw Amount") (determined after giving effect to any
distribution to be made pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(i) or (d)(i), as the case
may be, and Section 4.09(c) on the related Distribution Date) of (i) any Class B
Monthly Interest due but not to be deposited into the Class B Interest Funding
Account on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(i) or (d)(i), as
the case may be, or Section 4.09(c), (ii) any Class B Monthly Interest
previously due but not deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account on a
prior Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(i) or (d)(i), as the case
may be, or Section 4.09(c) or this paragraph (f), (iii) any Class B Additional
Interest due but not to be deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account
on such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest previously due but
43
<PAGE>
not deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account on a prior Distribution
Date pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(i) or (d)(i), as the case may be, or Section
4.09(c) or this paragraph (f) and (iv) any Cumulative Excess Interest Amount due
but not to be deposited into the Class B Interest Funding Account on such
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.09(c).
(g) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the amount (the "Default Draw Amount") equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the
Class B Investor Default Amount for the related Distribution Date over (ii) the
amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections to be allocated and available
pursuant to Section 4.09(d) to fund such Class B Investor Default Amount on such
Distribution Date.
(h) On each Determination Date (commencing with the
Determination Date preceding the Class B Principal Commencement Date), the
Servicer shall calculate the amount (the "Reimbursement Draw Amount") equal to
the excess, if any, of (i) the Class B Initial Invested Amount minus the sum of
the aggregate amount of principal payments previously distributed to Class B
Certificateholders over (ii) the Class B Invested Amount on the last day of the
related Due Period (determined after giving effect to any change to be made in
the Class B Invested Amount pursuant to paragraph (c), (d), (e) or (f) of the
definition of "Class B Invested Amount" on the following Distribution Date).
(i) Notwithstanding Section 4.11(h), if either (i) the
Certificateholders' Interest in the Receivables is reassigned to the Sellers
pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Agreement, (ii) Receivables are sold, disposed
of or otherwise liquidated pursuant to Section 9.02 or Section 12.02(c) of the
Agreement or (iii) the Certificateholders' Interest in the Receivables is
purchased by the Sellers pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Agreement or the
Series 1999-1 Certificateholders' Interest is purchased by the Sellers pursuant
to Section 7.01 of this Series Supplement, the Servicer shall not calculate the
Reimbursement Draw Amount with respect to the relevant Distribution Date, but
shall calculate the amount (the "Special Draw Amount") equal to the aggregate
amount of all reductions of the Class B Invested Amount occurring under clauses
(c), (d) or (e) of the definition of "Class B Invested Amount" which have not
been reimbursed prior to such Distribution Date under clause (f) thereof.
(j) Notwithstanding Section 4.11(h) and (i), on the
Determination Date preceding the Economic Special Payment Date, the Servicer
shall not calculate the Reimbursement Draw Amount or the Special Draw Amount
with respect to such Special Payment Date, but shall calculate (i) the amount
(the "Class A Principal Draw Amount") (determined after giving effect to any
distribution to be made pursuant to Section 4.06(f)(i) and 4.07(a)(ii) on such
Special Payment Date) equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Class A
Certificates and (ii) the amount (the "Class B Principal Draw Amount")
(determined after giving effect to any distribution to be made pursuant to
Section 4.06(f)(iii) and 4.07(b)(ii) on such Special Payment Date) equal to the
outstanding principal amount of the Class B Certificates.
44
<PAGE>
(k) In the event that for any Distribution Date, the sum of
any Required Draw Amount, Interest Draw Amount, Default Draw Amount,
Reimbursement Draw Amount, Special Draw Amount, Class A Principal Draw Amount
and Class B Principal Draw Amount (such sum being referred to as the "Total Draw
Amount"), is greater than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice to the
Trustee and the L/C Issuer in substantially the form of Exhibit B of such
positive Total Draw Amount on the related Determination Date (with a copy to the
Rating Agencies). On the related Transfer Date, draws will be made under the L/C
(or withdrawals will be made from the L/C Funding Account, as the case may be)
as follows:
(A) the portion of the Total Draw Amount allocable to the
Required Draw Amount, if any, up to the Available Shared Enhancement
Amount, shall be drawn under the L/C (or withdrawn from the L/C Funding
Account, as the case may be) on the related Transfer Date and
distributed first to fund any deficiency pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(i)
or (c)(i) (but not including any amount relating to any Class A Funding
Account Shortfall) and second to pay the Class A Investor Default
Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.06(a)(ii) or (c)(ii), as the case may be; provided, however, that at
such time as Citibank (South Dakota) or an Affiliate of Citibank (South
Dakota) is no longer the Servicer, the amount of such draw under the
L/C (or withdrawal from the L/C Funding Account) shall be applied in
accordance with and in the priority set forth in Section 4.10(a);
(B) the portion of the Total Draw Amount allocable to the
Interest Draw Amount, if any, up to the Available Shared Enhancement
Amount (determined after giving effect to any draw (or withdrawal)

from the L/C Funding Account, as the case may be) on the related
Transfer Date and immediately deposited by the Trustee into the Class B
Interest Funding Account;
(C) the portion of the Total Draw Amount allocable to the
Default Draw Amount, if any, up to the Available Shared Enhancement
Amount (determined after giving effect to any draw or withdrawal
pursuant to clauses (A) and (B)), shall be drawn under the L/C (or
withdrawn from the L/C Funding Account, as the case may be) on the
related Transfer Date and used to pay the Class B Investor Default
Amount for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.09(d);
45
<PAGE>
(D) the portion of the Total Draw Amount allocable to the
Class A Principal Draw Amount, if any, up to the Available Shared
Enhancement Amount (determined after giving effect to any draw or
withdrawal pursuant to clauses (A), (B) and (C)), shall be drawn under
the L/C (or withdrawn from the L/C Funding Account, as the case may be)
on the related Transfer Date and immediately deposited by the Trustee
into the Class A Principal Funding Account; and
(E) the remainder of the Total Draw Amount, if any, up to the
Available Enhancement Amount (determined after giving effect to any
draw or withdrawal pursuant to clauses (A) through (D)), shall be drawn
under the L/C (or withdrawn from the L/C Funding Account, as the case
may be) on the related Transfer Date and immediately deposited by the
Trustee into the Collection Account for distribution to the Class B
Certificateholders on such Distribution Date.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Series Supplement or in the
Agreement, no draw may be made under the L/C (or withdrawal may be made from the
L/C Funding Account) to fund any Class A Funding Account Shortfall.
(l) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the termination of the
Trust pursuant to Article XII of the Agreement, (ii) the Termination Date, (iii)
the day on which the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount are
paid in full to the Class A Certificateholders and the Class B
Certificateholders and (iv) all draws to be made under the L/C or all
withdrawals from the L/C Funding Account pursuant to Section 4.11(k) with
respect to the Economic Special Payment Date having been made, the Trustee,
acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer, after the prior
payment of all amounts owing to the Class A Certificateholders and the Class B
Certificateholders which are payable by draws under the L/C or withdrawals from
the L/C Funding Account as provided herein, (A) shall terminate the L/C and the
L/C shall be deemed to have been terminated for all purposes of this Series
Supplement, or (B) shall withdraw from the L/C Funding Account for application
in accordance with the L/C Reimbursement Agreement all amounts, if any, on
deposit in the L/C Funding Account, and the L/C Funding Account shall be deemed
to have terminated for purposes of this Series Supplement.
(m) If the L/C Funding Account Surplus on any Distribution
Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from the L/C
Funding Account with respect to such Distribution Date, is greater than zero,
the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trustee, acting in accordance with the
instructions of the Servicer, shall withdraw from the L/C Funding Account and
apply in accordance with the L/C Reimbursement Agreement, an amount equal to
such L/C Funding Account Surplus.
46
<PAGE>
(n) In each case in which a draw is to be made under the L/C
pursuant to Section 4.11(k), the Trustee (or the Servicer as agent of the
Trustee) shall present to the L/C Issuer a drawing certificate in respect of
such draw at or before 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day preceding the Transfer
Date on which such drawing is to be made.
Section 4.12. Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections.
(a) That portion of Group One Investor Finance Charge Collections for any
Distribution Date equal to the amount of Reallocated Investor Finance Charge
Collections for such Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 1999-1 and
will be distributed as set forth in this Series Supplement.
(b) Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections, with
respect to any Distribution Date, shall equal the sum of (i) the aggregate
amount of Series 1999-1 Monthly Interest, Series 1999-1 Default Amount, Series
1999-1 Monthly Fees and Series 1999-1 Additional Amounts for such Distribution
Date and (ii) that portion of excess Group One Investor Finance Charge
Collections to be included in Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections

fourth-to-last Business Day of January 2003; provided, however, that if the
Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) is less than twelve
months, upon notice to the Trustee, the Sellers, the Rating Agency and the L/C
Issuer, the Servicer, at its option, may elect to postpone the date on which the
Accumulation Period actually commences to the fourth-to-last Business Day of any
month that precedes the month that is the number of months prior to the Class A
Expected Final Payment Date, equal to the Accumulation Period Length such that
the number of Monthly Periods in the Accumulation Period will equal or exceed
the Accumulation Period Length. On the Determination Date immediately preceding
the January 2003 Distribution Date, the Servicer will determine the
"Accumulation Period Length" which will equal the number of months such that the
54
<PAGE>
sum of the Accumulation Period Amounts for each Monthly Period, beginning with
(and assigning the largest Accumulation Period Amount to) the Monthly Period
that ends on the day preceding the Class A Expected Final Payment Date, when
aggregated with the Accumulation Period Amounts for each preceding Monthly
Period will equal or exceed the Initial Invested Amount. If the Servicer elects
to postpone the commencement of the Accumulation Period pursuant to this Section
7.03, then on each Determination Date thereafter until the date the Accumulation
Period commences, the Servicer will recalculate the Accumulation Period Length;
provided, however, that (i) the length of the Accumulation Period shall not be
shorter than the period determined as of the first date of determination unless
an additional Series, other than an Excluded Series, shall have been issued
since such date and such Series is in its revolving period; (ii) the length of
the Accumulation Period will not be less than one month; and (iii) no election
to postpone, or further postpone, the commencement of the Accumulation Period
shall be made after an economic amortization event (as defined in the related
Supplement) shall have occurred and is continuing with respect to any other
Series. If the Accumulation Period Length as recalculated on any such
Determination Date exceeds the number of Monthly Periods then scheduled to be
included in the Accumulation Period, the commencement date of the Accumulation
Period will be changed to the later of (x) such Determination Date and (y) the
fourth-to-last Business Day of a month such that the number of Monthly Periods
in the Accumulation Period will equal the recalculated Accumulation Period
Length. Any notice by the Servicer electing to postpone (or further postpone)
the commencement of the Accumulation Period pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall
specify (i) the Accumulation Period Length, (ii) the commencement date of the
Accumulation Period and (iii) the Controlled Amortization Amount with respect to
each Monthly Period.

(the "Trust") created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as
of May 29, 1991 (as amended and supplemented, the "Agreement"), as supplemented

hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee. A copy of the

the unpaid principal balance of the Class A Certificates. The Class A Expected
Final Payment Date is the February 2004 Distribution Date, but principal with
respect to the Class A Certificates may be paid earlier or later under certain
circumstances described in the Agreement and the Series Supplement. If for one
or more months during the Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds to
pay the Controlled Amortization Amount, then to the extent that excess funds are
not available on subsequent Distribution Dates with respect to the Accumulation
Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of the
Class A Certificates will occur later than the Class A Expected Final Payment
Date. If the principal of the Class A Certificates and the Class B Certificates
is not paid in full on or prior to the Termination Date, the Trustee will sell
or cause to be sold on such Termination Date Principal Receivables (and the
related Finance Charge Receivables) (or interests therein) in an amount equal to
110% of the Invested Amount as of such Termination Date, subject to certain
limitations, and shall immediately deposit the Termination Proceeds allocable to

the Agreement which represents the Sellers' Interest.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the

On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to

calendar month (each a "Record Date") such Class A Certificateholder's pro rata
share of such amounts on deposit in the Class A Interest Funding Account or the
Class A Principal Funding Account as are payable to the Class A
Certificateholders pursuant to the Agreement and the Series Supplement.
Distributions with respect to this Class A Certificate will be made by the

Certificate will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class A

or an interest in, the Sellers, the Servicer or any affiliate of any of them and
is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any
other governmental agency or instrumentality. This Class A Certificate is
limited in right of payment to certain Collections with respect to the
Receivables (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set forth

immunities under the Agreement or otherwise.

to time (including in connection with the issuance of a Supplemental
Certificate) by the Servicer, the Sellers and the Trustee, with the consent of
the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investor Certificates of all adversely
affected Series, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Agreement or any Supplement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Investor Certificateholders;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the
amount of or delay the timing of any distributions to be made to Investor
Certificateholders or deposits of amounts to be so distributed or the amount
available under any Series Enhancement without the consent of each affected
Investor Certificateholder, (ii) change the definition of or the manner of
calculating the interest of any Investor Certificateholder without the consent
of each affected Investor Certificateholder, (iii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of each
Investor Certificateholder or (iv) adversely affect the rating of any Series or
Class by the Rating Agency without the consent of the Holders of Investor
Certificates of such Series or Class evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investor Certificates of such Series or
Class. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
amendment which affects the Trustee's rights, duties or immunities under this
Agreement or otherwise.
The Class A Certificates are issuable only in minimum
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of this
Class A Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register upon
surrender of this Class A Certificate for registration of transfer at any office

Certificates. When issued, the Additional Class A Certificates will be identical
in all respects to the other outstanding Class A Certificates and will be

Supplement without preference, priority or distinction.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A Certificates evidencing like aggregate fractional undivided interests as
requested by the Class A Certificateholder surrendering such Class A
Certificates. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the

to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith.
