long as the Total Enhancement is less than the Required
Enhancement Amount during a Monthly Period, an amount equal to
the sum of (x) the Collateral Floating Percentage of the
product of the Principal Allocation Percentage and the
aggregate amount of Collections of Principal Receivables and
(y) the Class B Principal Percentage of the product of the
Principal Allocation Percentage and the aggregate amount of
Collections of Principal Receivables ("Subordinate Principal
Collections") on each Date of Processing with respect to such
Monthly Period shall be deposited and retained in the
Collection Account during such Monthly Period.
(b) Allocations During the Accumulation Period. During
the Accumulation Period, the Servicer shall, prior to the close of business on
the second Business Day following any Date of Processing, allocate the
following amounts as set forth below:
(i) Allocate to the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder and
deposit and retain in the Collection Account an amount equal
to the product of (A) the Floating Allocation Percentage on
such Date of Processing and (B) the aggregate amount of
Collections of Finance Charge Receivables on such Date of
Processing.
(ii) Allocate to the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder and
deposit and retain in the Collection Account an amount equal
to the product of (x) the Principal Allocation Percentage on
such Date of Processing and (y) the aggregate amount of
Collections of Principal Receivables on such Date of
Processing (for any such date, a "Percentage Allocation");
provided, however, that if the sum of such Percentage
Allocations with respect to the same Monthly Period exceeds
the Controlled Deposit Amount for the related Distribution
Date, then such excess shall not be treated as a Percentage
Allocation and shall be first, if any other Principal Sharing
Series in Group One is outstanding and in its Amortization
Period or Accumulation Period (as such terms are defined in
the Agreement), retained in the Collection Account for
application, to the extent necessary, as Shared Principal
Collections in accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement
to other Series in Group One on the related Distribution Date,
and second paid to the Holders of the Seller Certificates only
if the Seller Amount on such Date of Processing is greater
than the Required Seller Amount (after giving effect to all
Principal Receivables transferred to the Trust on such day and
any amounts deposited in the Excess Funding Account on such
day) and otherwise shall be deposited in the Excess Funding
Account until the Seller Amount is greater than the Required
Seller Amount and applied in accordance with Section 4.02 of
the Agreement and the remainder shall be paid to the Holders
of the Seller Certificates; provided further, however, that if
and for so long as the Total Enhancement is less than the
Required Enhancement Amount during a Monthly Period,
Subordinate Principal Collections with respect to each Date of
Processing with respect to such Monthly Period shall be
retained in the Collection Account during such Monthly Period.

Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder and
deposit and retain in the Collection Account an amount equal
to the product of (A) the Principal Allocation Percentage on
such Date of Processing and (B) the aggregate amount of
Collections of Principal Receivables on such Date of
Processing; provided, however, that after the date on which an
amount of such Collections equal to the Investor Amount has
been deposited into the Collection Account and allocated to
the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral
Interest Holder, the amount determined in accordance with this
subparagraph (ii) in excess thereof shall be first, if any
other Principal Sharing Series in Group One is outstanding and
in its Amortization Period or Accumulation Period (as such
terms are defined in the Agreement), retained in the
Collection Account for application, to the extent necessary,
as Shared Principal Collections in accordance with Section
4.04 of the Agreement to other Series in Group One on the
related Distribution Date, and second paid to the Holders of
the Seller Certificates only if the Seller Amount on such Date
of Processing is greater than the Required Seller Amount
(after giving effect to all Principal Receivables transferred
to the Trust on such day and any amounts deposited in the
Excess Funding Account on such day) and otherwise shall be
deposited in the Excess Funding Account until the Seller

otherwise payable to the Holders of the Seller Certificates shall, unless such
Collections are to be retained in the Collection Account, be deposited in the
Excess Funding Account and applied in accordance with Section 4.02 of the
Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer need not
make daily deposits of Collections into the Collection Account at any time when
the requirements of Section 4.03 of the Agreement are satisfied.
Section 4.2. Determination of Monthly Interest.
23
<PAGE> 25
(a) The amount of monthly interest ("Class A Monthly
Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class
A Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the
product of (i) (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, times
(B) the Class A Certificate Rate and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of
the Class A Certificates as of the close of business on the preceding Record
Date; provided, however, with respect to the April 1998 Distribution Date,
Class A Monthly Interest shall be equal to the interest accrued on the Class A
Initial Investor Amount at the applicable Class A Certificate Rate for the
period from the Closing Date to but excluding April 15, 1998.
On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the "Class A Interest
Shortfall"), of (x) the Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date
over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such
Class A Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date (after giving effect to any
withdrawal from the Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Distribution
Date). If the Class A Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date
is greater than zero, an additional amount ("Class A Additional Interest")
equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
actual number of days from and including the preceding Distribution Date to but
excluding such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, times (B)
the Class A Penalty Rate and (ii) such Class A Interest Shortfall (or the
portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class A Certificateholders)
shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class A Certificates on
each Distribution Date following such Distribution Date to and including the
Distribution Date on which such Class A Interest Shortfall is paid to the Class
A Certificateholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class A
Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to Class A
Certificateholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(b) The amount of monthly interest ("Class B Monthly
Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class
B Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the
product of (i) (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, times
(B) the Class B Certificate Rate and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of
the Class B Certificates as of the close of business on the preceding Record
Date; provided, however, with respect to the April 1998 Distribution Date,
Class B Monthly Interest shall be equal to the interest accrued on the Class B
Initial Investor Amount at the applicable Class B Certificate Rate for the
period from the Closing Date to but excluding April 15, 1998.
On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the "Class B Interest
Shortfall"), of (x) the Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date
over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such
Class B Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date (after giving effect to any
withdrawal from the Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Distribution
Date). If the Class B Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date
is greater than zero, an additional amount ("Class B Additional Interest")
equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
actual number of days in the period from and including the preceding
Distribution Date to but excluding such Distribution Date and the denominator
of which is 360, times (B) the Class B
24
<PAGE> 26
Penalty Rate and (ii) such Class B Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof
which has not been paid to the Class B Certificateholders) shall be payable as
provided herein with respect to the Class B Certificates on each Distribution
Date following such Distribution Date to and including the Distribution Date on
which such Class B Interest Shortfall is paid to the Class B
Certificateholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class B
Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to Class B
Certificateholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(c) The amount of monthly interest ("Collateral Monthly
Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the
Collateral Interest on each Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the
product of (i) (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, times
(B) the Collateral Rate and (ii) the Collateral Investor Amount as of the close
of business on the preceding Record Date; provided, however, with respect to
the April 1998 Distribution Date, Collateral Monthly Interest shall be equal to
the interest accrued on the Collateral Initial Investor Amount at the
applicable Collateral Rate for the periods from the Closing Date to but
excluding April 15, 1998.
On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the "Collateral Interest
Shortfall"), of (x) the Collateral Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date
over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such
Collateral Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date pursuant to subsection
4.7(f) or pursuant to the Loan Agreement. If the Collateral Interest Shortfall
with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, an additional
amount ("Collateral Additional Interest") equal to the product of (i) (A) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period
from and including the preceding Distribution Date to but excluding such
Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Collateral
Rate and (ii) such Collateral Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which
has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder) shall be payable as
provided herein with respect to the Collateral Interest on each Distribution
Date following such Distribution Date to and including the Distribution Date on
which such Collateral Interest Shortfall is paid to the Collateral Interest
Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Collateral Additional
Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder only
to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Section 4.3. Determination of Monthly Principal.
(a) The amount of monthly principal ("Class A Monthly
Principal") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class
A Certificates on each Distribution Date, beginning with the first Distribution
Date with respect to the Accumulation Period or the Rapid Amortization Period,
shall be equal to the least of (x) the Available Investor Principal Collections
on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date,
(y) for each Distribution Date with respect to the Class A Accumulation Period
(and on or prior to the Class A Expected Final Distribution Date), the
Controlled Deposit Amount for such Distribution Date and (z) the Class A
Invested Amount on such Distribution Date.
(b) The amount of monthly principal ("Class B Monthly
Principal")
25
<PAGE> 27
distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class B
Certificates on each Distribution Date, beginning with the Class B Principal
Commencement Date, shall be equal to the least of (x) the Available Investor
Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such
Distribution Date (minus the portion of such Available Investor Principal
Collections applied to Class A Monthly Principal on such Distribution Date),
(y) for each Distribution Date with respect to the Class B Accumulation Period
on or prior to the Class B Expected Final Distribution Date, the Controlled
Deposit Amount for such Distribution Date and (z) the Class B Invested Amount
on such Distribution Date.
(c) The amount, if any, of monthly principal ("Collateral
Monthly Principal") distributable with respect to the Collateral Invested
Amount on each Distribution Date shall equal the following amounts:
(i) on any Distribution Date prior to the
Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid
in full, shall be an amount equal to the lesser of (A) (x)
Collateral Principal Collections with respect to such
Distribution Date plus (y) Available Investor Principal
Collections (not including any amounts specified in clause (d)
of the definition of "Available Investor Principal
Collections") not applied to Class A Monthly Principal or
Class B Monthly Principal on such Distribution Date and (B)
the Enhancement Surplus on such Distribution Date, if any;
(ii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the
Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid
in full, shall be an amount equal to the sum of the Available
Investor Principal Collections (not including any amounts
specified in clause (d) of the definition of "Available
Investor Principal Collections") with respect to such
Distribution Date (minus the portion of such Available
Investor Principal Collections applied to Class A Monthly
Principal and Class B Monthly Principal on such Distribution
Date) and the Collateral Principal Collections with respect to
such Distribution Date; and
(iii) on any Distribution Date, in addition to the
amounts, if any, set forth in items (i) and (ii) above, at the
option of the Seller (as evidenced by written instructions to
the Servicer and the Trustee with a copy to the Collateral
Interest Holder), and after receipt by the Servicer and the
Trustee of a written determination by each Rating Agency that
such action will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of
the then current ratings of the Class A Certificates or the
Class B Certificates, shall be an amount established by the
Seller and consistent with any restrictions set forth in the
determination of the Rating Agency;
provided, however, with respect to any Distribution Date, Collateral Monthly
Principal shall not exceed the Collateral Invested Amount and, with respect to
any Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period and the Accumulation
Period, Collateral Monthly Principal shall be zero except to the extent
otherwise specified in, or pursuant to, clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.
26

Section 4.4. Required Amount.
(a) With respect to each Distribution Date, on the
related Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the "Class
A Required Amount"), if any, by which (a) the sum of (i) Class A Monthly
Interest for such Distribution Date, (ii) any Class A Monthly Interest
previously due but not paid to the Class A Certificateholders on a prior
Distribution Date, (iii) any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution
Date and any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not paid to the

Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, (v) any Class A Servicing Fee
previously due but not paid to the Servicer and (vi) the Class A Investor
Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date exceeds (b) the Class A
Available Funds. In the event that the Class A Required Amount for such
Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice
to the Trustee of such positive Class A Required Amount on the date of
computation and all or a portion of the Excess Spread and the Excess Finance
Charges allocable to Series 1998-A with respect to the related Monthly Period
in an amount equal to the Class A Required Amount for such Distribution Date
shall be distributed from the Collection Account on such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 4.7(a). In the event that the Class A Required Amount for
such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and the amount of
Excess Finance Charges allocable to Series 1998-A with respect to the related
Monthly Period, all or a portion of the Available Cash Collateral Amount with
respect to such Distribution Date in an amount equal to such excess shall be
applied to fund the Class A Required Amount. In the event that the Class A
Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Spread,
the Excess Finance Charges allocated to Series 1998-A with respect to the
related Monthly Period and the Available Cash Collateral Amount with respect to
such Distribution Date, all or a portion of the Reallocated Principal
Collections with respect to such Monthly Period in an amount equal to such
excess shall be distributed from the Collection Account on such Distribution
Date pursuant to Section 4.8(a).
(b) With respect to each Distribution Date on the related
Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the "Class B
Required Amount") equal to the sum of (I) the amount, if any, by which (a) the
sum of (i) Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, (ii) any Class
B Monthly Interest previously due but not paid to the Class B
Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (iii) any Class B Additional
Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest
previously due but not paid to the Class B Certificateholders on a prior
Distribution Date, (iv) the Class B Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date,
and (v) any Class B Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer
exceeds (b) the Class B Available Funds plus (II) the Class B Investor Default
Amount for such Distribution Date. In the event that the Class B Required
Amount for such Distribution Date is greater than zero, all or a portion of
Excess Spread and the Excess Finance Charges allocable to Series 1998-A (other
than Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges applied pursuant to subsection
4.7(a) and (b) with respect to such Distribution Date) with respect to the
related Monthly Period shall be applied to fund the Class B Required Amount.
In the event that the Class B Required Amount for such Distribution Date
exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges allocable to
Series 1998-A with respect to such Monthly Period and available to fund the
Class B Required Amount as provided in the preceding sentence, all or a portion
of the Available Cash Collateral Amount (other than that portion of the
Available Cash
27
<PAGE> 29
Collateral Amount applied to fund the Class A Required Amount with respect to
such Distribution Date) in an amount equal to such excess shall be applied to
fund the Class B Required Amount. In the event that the Class B Required
Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the portion of Excess Spread and
Excess Finance Charges allocated to Series 1998-A with respect to the related
Monthly Period and available to fund the Class B Required Amount, as provided
in the preceding sentence, and the portion of the Available Cash Collateral
Amount with respect to such Distribution Date withdrawn from the Cash
Collateral Account to fund the Class B Required Amount, all or a portion of the
Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Invested Amount
and available therefor with respect to such Monthly Period in an amount equal
to such excess shall be distributed from the Collection Account on such
Distribution Date pursuant to subsection 4.8(b).

Section 4.6. Default Amounts; Investor Charge-Offs.
(a) On each Determination Date commencing with the
Determination Date relating to the April 1998 Distribution Date, the Servicer
shall calculate the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for the related
Distribution Date. If, on any Distribution Date, the Class A Required Amount
for the related Monthly Period exceeds the sum of (x) the amount of
30
<PAGE> 32
Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to such Monthly Period, (y) the
amount of Excess Spread and the Excess Finance Charges allocable to Series
1998-A with respect to such Distribution Date and (z) the Available Cash
Collateral Amount with respect to such Distribution Date, the Collateral
Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more
than the excess of the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution
Date over the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections, Excess Spread and
Excess Finance Charges and the amount withdrawn from the Cash Collateral
Account used to fund the Class A Investor Default Amount 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, 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 Collateral
Invested Amount with respect to such Distribution Date and the amount of
Reallocated Principal Collections, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges and
the amount withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account used to fund the Class A
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date. 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 Class A Invested
Amount shall 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 Collateral Invested Amount
and the Class B Invested Amount for such Distribution Date and the amount of
Reallocated Principal Collections, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges and
the amount withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account used to fund the Class A
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date (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 unreimbursed Class A Investor Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date
by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges allocated and
available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.7(b).
(b) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
calculate the Class B Required Amount, if any, for the related Distribution
Date. If, on any Distribution Date, the Class B Required Amount for such
Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (x) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess
Finance Charges allocated to Series 1998-A with respect to the related Monthly
Period which are not used to fund the Class A Required Amount and Class A
Investor Charge-Offs on the related Distribution Date, (y) the portion, if any,
of the Available Cash Collateral Amount to be withdrawn from the Cash
Collateral Account pursuant to subsection 4.12(c) which is remaining after
applying such amounts to fund any deficiency of amounts payable pursuant to
subsection 4.7(a) with respect to such Distribution Date and (z) the amount of
Reallocated Principal Collections which are available to fund the Class B
Required Amount on such Distribution Date pursuant to subsection 4.8(b), then
the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such excess,
but not by more than the excess of the Class B Investor Default Amount for such
Distribution Date over the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections, Excess
Spread and Excess Finance Charges and the amount withdrawn from the Cash
Collateral Account used to fund the Class B Investor Default Amount for such
Distribution Date. In the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral
Invested Amount to be a
31
<PAGE> 33
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 by more
than the excess, if any, of the Class B Investor Default Amount for such
Distribution Date over the amount of such reduction, if any, of the Collateral
Invested Amount with respect to such Distribution Date and the amount of
Reallocated Principal Collections, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges and
the amount withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account used to fund the Class B
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date (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 unreimbursed Class B Investor Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date
by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges allocated and
available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.7(e).
(c) If, on any Distribution Date, Reallocated Principal
Collections for such Distribution Date are applied pursuant to subsection
4.8(a) or (b), the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of
such Reallocated Principal Collections. 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.
(d) If, on any Distribution Date, the Collateral Default
Amount exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges available
to fund the Collateral Default Amount pursuant to subsection 4.7(h) on such
Distribution Date, then the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced by the
amount of such excess.
Section 4.7. Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charges. The
Servicer shall apply or shall cause the Trustee to apply, on each Distribution
Date, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charges allocated to Series 1998-A 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 such Distribution Date shall be distributed by the Trustee
to fund any deficiency pursuant to subsections 4.5(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), in
that order of priority;
(b) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Class A
Investor Charge-Offs which have not been previously reimbursed as provided in
subsection 4.6(a) (after giving effect to the allocation on such Distribution
Date of any amount for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.6(a)) shall be

shall apply or shall cause the Trustee to apply on each Distribution Date,
Reallocated Principal Collections (applying all such Collections with respect
to the Collateral Invested Amount prior to applying any such Collections with
respect to the Class B Invested Amount and applying no such Collections with
respect to the Class B Invested Amount pursuant to clause (b) below) with
respect to such Distribution Date, to make the following distributions in the
following priority:

Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Invested Amount shall be
treated as a portion of Collateral Principal Collections to be applied in
accordance with subsections 4.5(e) and (g).
Section 4.9. Excess Finance Charges. On each Distribution
Date, (a) the Servicer shall allocate the aggregate amount of all outstanding
Series in Group One that the related Supplements specify are to be treated as a
portion of Excess Finance Charges for such Distribution Date (collectively,
"Excess Finance Charges") as specified in the Supplements for each Series in
Group One and (b) the Servicer shall withdraw (or shall instruct the Trustee in
writing to withdraw) from the Collection Account and pay to the Holders of the

all Series in Group One that the related Supplements specify are Finance Charge
Shortfalls (as defined in the related Supplements) for such Distribution Date.
Excess Finance Charges for any Distribution Date will be allocated to Series

<PAGE> 36
Charge Shortfall for Series 1998-A for such Distribution Date and the
denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Finance Charge Shortfalls (as
defined in the related Supplements) for all the Series in Group One for such

required to be paid, without duplication, pursuant to subsections 4.5(a),
4.5(b), 4.5(c) and 4.7 (except for subsection 4.7(l)(2)) on such Distribution
Date over (b) the sum of Class A Available Funds, Class B Available Funds and
Collateral Available Funds with respect to the related Monthly Period.
Section 4.10 Shared Principal Collections. Subject to
Section 4.04 of the Agreement, Shared Principal Collections for any
Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 1998-A in an amount equal to the
product of (x) the aggregate amount of Shared Principal Collections with
respect to all Series in Group One for such Distribution Date and (y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Principal Shortfall for Series 1998-A
for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount
of Principal Shortfalls for all the Series which are Principal Sharing Series
in Group One for such Distribution Date. The "Principal Shortfall" for Series
1998-A shall be equal to (a) for any Distribution Date with respect to the
Revolving Period and the Rapid Amortization Period, zero, (b) for any
Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period (on or prior to the
Class B Expected Final Distribution Date), the excess, if any, of the
Controlled Deposit Amount with respect to such Distribution Date over the
amount of Available Investor Principal Collections for such Distribution Date
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections)
and (c) for each Distribution Date with respect to the Accumulation Period

Section 4.11. Determination of LIBOR.
(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee shall
determine LIBOR based on the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a
period of the Designated Maturity which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of
11:00 A.M. (London Time) on such date.
(b) If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750,
the Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of quotations of the offered
rates for deposits in United States dollars provided by the Reference Banks at
approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date to
prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of the Designated
Maturity. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the
arithmetic mean of such quotations.
(c) If, on the LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does
not appear on Telerate Page 3750 and only one or none of the Reference Banks
provides such offered quotations, LIBOR will be the rate per annum that the
Trustee determines to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that
three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Servicer are quoting
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.

(d) The Class A Certificate Rate or Class B Certificate
Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding Interest
Periods may be obtained by any Series 1998-A Certificateholder by telephoning
the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at (800) 735-7777.
Section 4.12. Cash Collateral Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the
name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Series
1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder, as their
interests appear herein, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Cash Collateral
Account") bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited
therein are held for the benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and
the Collateral Interest Holder. The Cash Collateral Account shall initially be
established with the Trustee. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Cash Collateral
Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Cash Collateral Account shall be
under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder. The
interest of the Collateral Interest Holder in the Cash Collateral Account shall
be subordinated to the interests of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders as
provided herein and in the Loan Agreement. If at any time the Cash Collateral
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 Cash Collateral Account meeting the conditions specified above as an
Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to
such new Cash Collateral Account. The Trustee, at the direction of the
Servicer, shall make deposits to and withdrawals from the Cash Collateral
Account in the amounts and at the times set forth in this Supplement and the
Loan Agreement. All withdrawals from the Cash Collateral Account shall be made
in the priority set forth below. The Collateral Interest Holder shall not be
entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Assets for any withdrawals from the
Cash Collateral Account except as specifically provided in this Supplement and
the Loan Agreement.
(b) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit
$23,000,000 received by it in immediately available funds pursuant to the Loan
Agreement into the Cash Collateral Account. Funds on deposit in the Cash
Collateral Account shall be invested at the direction of the Servicer by the
Trustee in Cash Collateral Account Investments. Funds on deposit in the Cash
Collateral Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals
from the Cash Collateral 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. No Eligible Investment
shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee
may sell, liquidate or dispose of an Eligible Investment before its maturity,
if so directed by the Servicer, the Servicer having reasonably determined that
the interest of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral
Interest Holder may be adversely affected if such Eligible Investment is held
to its maturity. 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
1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest
36
<PAGE> 38
Holder possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any,
evidencing the Cash Collateral 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 Cash Collateral Account
shall be applied in accordance with the Loan Agreement. For purposes of
determining the availability of funds or the balances in the Cash Collateral
Account for any reason under this Supplement, all investment earnings on such
funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(c) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
calculate the amount (the "Required Draw Amount") by which the amounts
specified in clauses (a) through (e) and (g) of Section 4.7 with respect to the
related Distribution Date exceed the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance
Charges allocated to Series 1998-A with respect to the related Monthly Period.
In the event that for any Distribution Date the Required Draw Amount is greater
than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee and the
Collateral Interest Holder of such positive Required Draw Amount on the related
Determination Date. On the related Transfer Date, the Required Draw Amount, if
any, up to the Available Cash Collateral Amount, shall be withdrawn from the
Cash Collateral Account and distributed to fund any deficiency pursuant to
subsections 4.7(a) through (e) and (g) (in the order of priority set forth in
Section 4.7).
(d) In the event that the Cash Enhancement Surplus on any
Distribution Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from
the Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Distribution Date, and after
giving effect to any payment of Collateral Monthly Principal (or other
reduction of the Collateral Invested Amount) with respect to such Distribution
Date, is greater than zero, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the
instructions of the Servicer, shall withdraw from the Cash Collateral Account,
and apply in accordance with the Loan Agreement, an amount equal to such Cash
Enhancement Surplus.
Section 4.13. Principal Funding Account.
(a)(i) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account (the
"Principal Funding Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Series 1998-A Certificateholders. The Principal Funding Account shall
initially be established with the Trustee.
(ii) At the direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit in
the Principal Funding Account shall be invested by the Trustee in
Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer. All such Eligible
Investments shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Series
1998-A Certificateholders; provided that on each Distribution Date all
interest and other investment income (net of losses and investment
expenses ) ("Principal Funding Investment Proceeds") on funds on
deposit therein shall be applied as set forth in paragraph (iii)
below. Funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall be
invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds
will be available at the close of business on the Transfer Date
preceding the following Distribution Date. No Eligible Investment
shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that
the
37
<PAGE> 39
Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of an Eligible Investment
before its maturity, if so directed in writing by the Servicer, the
Servicer having reasonably determined that the interest of the Series
1998-A Certificateholders may be adversely affected if such Eligible
Investment is held to its maturity. Unless the Servicer directs
otherwise, funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account on a
Transfer Date (which immediately precedes a Distribution Date) upon
the maturity of any Eligible Investments are not required to be
invested overnight.
(iii) On each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall direct
the Trustee to withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit
into the Collection Account all Principal Funding Investment Proceeds
then on deposit in the Principal Funding Account, and such Principal
Funding Investment Proceeds shall be treated as a portion of Class A
Available Funds for such Distribution Date.
(iv) Reinvested interest and other investment income on
funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account shall not be
considered to be principal amounts on deposit therein for purposes of
this Supplement.
(b)(i) The Trustee shall possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Principal
Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Principal Funding
Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee
for the benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders. If, at any
time, the Principal Funding Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit
Account, the Trustee 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 Principal Funding Account meeting the
conditions specified in paragraph (a)(i) above as an Eligible Deposit
Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new
Principal Funding Account.
(ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in
Section 3.01(b) of the Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power,
revocable by the Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments or to
instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the
Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out the
Servicer's or Trustee's duties hereunder. Pursuant to the authority
granted to the Paying Agent in Section 5.01 of this Supplement and
Section 6.07 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent shall have the power,
revocable by the Trustee, to withdraw funds from the Principal Funding
Account for the purpose of making distributions to the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders.
Section 4.14. Class A Accumulation Period. The Class A
Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence on the Accumulation Date;
provided, however, that if the Class A Accumulation Period Length on any
Determination Date (determined as described below) is less than nine months,
upon notice to the Trustee, the Sellers, each Rating Agency and the Collateral
Interest Holder, the Servicer, at its option, may elect to modify the date on
which the Class A Accumulation Period actually commences to the first day of
the month that is a number of months prior to the month in which the Class A
Expected Final Distribution Date occurs at least equal to the Class A
Accumulation Period Length (so that, as a result, the number of Monthly
38
<PAGE> 40
Periods in the Class A Accumulation Period will at least equal the Class A
Accumulation Period Length); provided, however, that (i) the length of the
Class A Accumulation Period will not be less than one month; and (ii)
notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplement to the contrary, no
election to postpone the commencement of the Class A Accumulation Period shall
be made after a Pay Out Event (as defined in the related Supplement) shall have
occurred and is continuing with respect to any other Series. On each
Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the "Class A Accumulation
Period Length," which will mean a number of months such that the amount
available for distribution of principal on the Class A Certificates on the
Class A Expected Final Distribution Date will equal or exceed the Class A
Investor Amount, assuming for this purpose that (1) the payment rate with
respect to Collections of Principal Receivables remains constant at the lowest
level of such payment rate during the twelve preceding Monthly Periods (or such
lower payment rate as the Servicer may select), (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 Pay Out 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 the Servicer electing to modify the commencement of the Class A Accumulation
Period pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall specify (i) the Class A Accumulation
Period Length, (ii) the commencement date of the Class A Accumulation Period
and (iii) the Controlled Accumulation Amount with respect to each Monthly
Period during the Class A Accumulation Period.
Section 4.15. Reserve Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the
name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Series
1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder, an Eligible
Deposit Account (the "Reserve Account") bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder. The
Reserve Account shall initially be established with the Trustee. The Trustee
shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time
to time in the Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Reserve
Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the
benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest
Holder. If at any time the Reserve 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 Reserve Account meeting the
conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer
any cash and/or any investments to such new Reserve Account. The Trustee, at
the direction of the Servicer, shall (i) make withdrawals from the Reserve
Account from time to time for the purposes set forth in this Supplement, and
(ii) on each Distribution Date (from and after the Reserve Account Funding
Date) prior to the termination of the Reserve Account make a deposit into the
Reserve Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in accordance with,
subsection 4.7(l).
(b) Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be
invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Trustee in Eligible
Investments. Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Transfer Date,
after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Reserve Account
39
<PAGE> 41
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
immediately succeeding Transfer Date. The Trustee shall maintain for the
benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest
Holder possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any,
evidencing such Eligible Investments. No Eligible Investment shall be disposed
of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee may sell,
liquidate or dispose of an Eligible Investment before its maturity, if so
directed by the Servicer in writing, the Servicer having reasonably determined
that the interest of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders may be adversely
affected if such Eligible Investment is held to its maturity. On each
Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) accrued since the preceding Distribution Date on funds on deposit in
the Reserve Account shall be retained in the Reserve Account (to the extent
that the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is less than the Required
Reserve Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited in the
Collection Account and treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables
allocable to Series 1998-A. For purposes of determining the availability of
funds or the balance in the Reserve Account for any reason under this
Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, investment
earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(c) On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution
Date with respect to the Accumulation Period (prior to the Class B Expected
Final Distribution Date) and the first Special Payment Date, the Servicer shall
calculate the "Reserve Draw Amount" which shall be equal to the excess, if any,
of the Covered Amount with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment
Date over the Principal Funding Investment Proceeds with respect to such
Distribution Date or Special Payment Date; provided, that such amount will be
reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available for deposit in
the Reserve Account under subsection 4.7(l) with respect to such Distribution
Date.
(d) In the event that for any Distribution Date the
Reserve Draw Amount is greater than zero, the Reserve Draw Amount, up to the
amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, shall be withdrawn from the Reserve
Account on the related Transfer Date by the Trustee (acting in accordance with
the instructions of the Servicer), deposited into the Collection Account and
included in Class A Available Funds for such Distribution Date.
(e) In the event that the Reserve Account Surplus on any
Distribution Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from
the Reserve Account with respect to such Distribution Date, is greater than
zero, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer,
shall withdraw from the Reserve Account, and pay to the Collateral Interest
Holder for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement, an amount equal
to such Reserve Account Surplus.
(f) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the termination of
the Trust pursuant to Article XII of the Agreement, (ii) the day on which the
Class A Investor Amount is paid in full to the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders, (iii) if the Accumulation Period has not commenced, the
occurrence of a Pay Out Event with respect to Series 1998-A and (iv) if the
Accumulation Period has commenced, the earlier of the first Special Payment
Date and the Class A Expected Final Distribution Date, the Trustee, acting in
accordance with the written instructions of the Servicer,
40
<PAGE> 42
after the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders which are payable from the Reserve Account as provided
herein, shall withdraw from the Reserve Account and pay to the Collateral
Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement, all
amounts, if any, on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Reserve Account
shall be deemed to have terminated for purposes of this Supplement.
Section 4.16. Pre-Funding Account.
(a) Establishment of the Pre-Funding Account. The
Servicer hereby directs the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder, to establish and
maintain or cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Trustee,
on behalf of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest
Holder, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Pre-Funding Account"), bearing a
designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for
the benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest
Holder. The Seller does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey
to the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the
Collateral Interest Holder, without recourse, all of its right, title and
interest in, to and under the Pre-Funding Account, any Eligible Investments on
deposit therein and any proceeds of the foregoing. The Pre-Funding Account
shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of
the Series 1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder. If,
at any time, the Pre-Funding Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account,
the Servicer shall direct the Trustee to establish within ten Business Days a
new Pre-Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any
cash and/or any investments from the old Pre-Funding Account to such new
Pre-Funding Account and from the date such new Pre-Funding Account is
established, it shall be the "Pre-Funding Account." In addition, after five
days' notice to the Trustee, the Servicer may direct the Trustee to establish a
new Pre-Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any
cash and/or investments from the old Pre-Funding Account to such new
Pre-Funding Account and from the date such new Pre-Funding Account is
established, it shall be the "Pre-Funding Account." The Trustee, at the
direction of the Servicer, shall make withdrawals and payments from the
Pre-Funding Account from time to time for the purposes set forth in this
Supplement.
(b) Administration of Pre-Funding Account. The Trustee
shall on the Closing Date deposit into the Pre-Funding Account the Initial
Pre-Funded Amount from the proceeds of the sale of the Series 1998-A
Certificates and the Collateral Interest. On the Business Day preceding each
Transfer Date, the Trustee, acting in accordance with written instructions from
the Servicer, shall withdraw from the Pre-Funding Account and deposit into the
Collection Account all interest and other investment income on the Pre-Funded
Amount with respect to the prior Monthly Period. Such investment income shall
be deemed to be Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocated to Series
1998-A. Interest (including reinvested interest) and other investment income
on funds on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account shall not be considered part of
the Pre-Funded Amount for purposes of this Supplement.
(c) Investment of Funds in Pre-Funding Account. Funds on
deposit in the Pre-Funding Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments by
the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, by the Servicer on behalf of
the Trustee) selected at the written direction of the
41
<PAGE> 43
Servicer. Funds on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account on the Closing Date and
thereafter shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that
such funds will be available for withdrawal on the Business Day next succeeding
the next increase in the Invested Amount pursuant to Section 4.17 or, if
earlier, on the next succeeding Transfer Date.
(d) Principal Payments from Pre-Funding Account. In the
event that the Pre-Funded Amount exceeds zero at the end of the Funding Period,
on the first Distribution Date on or after the last day of the Funding Period
the Servicer shall apply or shall cause the Trustee to apply the Pre-Funded
Amount to the payment by the Paying Agent of principal on the Class A
Certificates, the Class B Certificates and the Collateral Interest on a pro
rata basis based on the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount
and the Collateral Invested Amount.
Section 4.17. Increases in Invested Amount. On each
Wednesday during the Funding Period, commencing February 11, 1998, the Invested
Amount shall increase to the extent that the Seller Amount on the preceding day
exceeds the product of (A) the sum of 0.50% and the Required Seller Percentage
on such date and (B) the sum of the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables
in the Trust and amounts on deposit in the Excess Funding Account on such
preceding day; provided, however, that the Invested Amount shall in no event
exceed $1,150,000,000 or increase pursuant to this Section 4.17 by an amount in
excess of the Pre-Funded Amount immediately prior to giving effect to such
increase. Such increase in the Invested Amount shall be allocated to the Class
A Certificates, the Class B Certificates and the Collateral Interest Holder on
a pro rata basis based on the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested
Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount immediately prior to such increase.
Upon any increase in the Invested Amount pursuant to this Section 4.17, the
Servicer shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Pre-Funding
Account and pay to Holders of the Seller Certificates no later than the next
succeeding Business Day an amount equal to the amount of such increase in the
Invested Amount.
ARTICLE V

(a) On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall
distribute to each Class A Certificateholder of record on the related Record

a result of which the interests of the Series 1998-A Certificateholders are

to whether any funds are available pursuant to any Series Enhancement);
provided, however, that a Series Pay Out Event pursuant to this subparagraph

pursuant to any Series Enhancement); or
(f) the Class A Investor Amount shall not be paid in full

then, in the case of any event described in subparagraph (a), (b) or (e), after
the applicable grace period, if any, set forth in such subparagraphs, either
the Trustee or the holders of Investor Certificates (including the Collateral
Interest Holder) of Series 1998-A evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate

Optional Repurchase; Series Termination

option to purchase the interest of the holders of Investor Certificates

Distribution Date following such day.
Section 7.2. Series Termination.
(a) If, on the May 2003 Distribution Date, the Investor
Amount (after giving effect to all changes therein on such date) would be
greater than zero, the Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, within the
40-day period which begins on such Distribution Date, solicit bids for the sale
of Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or
interests therein) in an amount equal to the Investor Amount and accrued and
unpaid interest thereon at the close of business on the last day of the Monthly
Period preceding the Series Termination Date (after giving effect to all
distributions required to be made on the Series Termination Date, except
pursuant to this Section 7.2; provided, however that in no event shall such
amount exceed the Series Percentage of Receivables on the Series Termination
Date). Such bids shall require that such sale shall (subject to Section
7.2(b)) occur on the Series Termination Date. The Seller and the Collateral
Interest Holder shall be entitled to participate in, and to receive from the
Trustee a copy of each other bid submitted in connection with, such bidding
process.
(b) The Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall sell
such Receivables (or interests therein) on the Series Termination Date to the
bidder who made the highest cash purchase offer. The proceeds of any such sale
shall be treated as Collections on the Receivables allocated to the Series
1998-A Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder pursuant to the
Agreement and this Supplement; provided, however, that the Servicer shall
determine conclusively the amount of such proceeds which are allocable to
Finance Charge Receivables and the amount of such proceeds which are allocable
to Principal Receivables. During the period from the May 2003 Distribution
Date to the Series Termination Date, the Servicer shall continue to collect
payments on the Receivables and allocate and deposit such collections in
accordance with the provisions of the Agreement and the Supplements.

to the Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange, or payment,
and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such
other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any
payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an
authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR
VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered
owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.
Evidencing an undivided interest in a trust, the corpus of
which consists of receivables generated from time to time in the
ordinary course of business in a portfolio of revolving consumer
credit card accounts owned by Advanta National Bank (formerly known as
Advanta National Bank USA and prior to that known as Colonial National

Bank) (the "Bank") or any Additional Seller.
No. CUSIP NO.
----- -----------------

(Not an interest in or obligation of Advanta National Bank or
any affiliate thereof, except to the limited extent described herein.)
This certifies that CEDE & CO. (the "Investor
Certificateholder") is the registered owner of an undivided interest in certain
assets of a trust (the "Trust"), created pursuant to the Amended and Restated
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1993, as amended and
restated as of May 23, 1994, and as amended by Amendment Number 1 dated as of
July 1, 1994, between the Bank, as seller (in such capacity, the "Seller") and
servicer (in such capacity, the "Servicer"), and Bankers Trust Company, as
trustee (the "Trustee"), as further amended by Amendment Number 2 dated as of
October 6, 1995 among the Bank, as seller and servicer, the former Advanta
National Bank, as a Seller, and the Trustee (as amended from time to time, the
"Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement") as supplemented by the
Series 1998-A Supplement, dated as of February 6, 1998, by and between the
Bank, as Seller and Servicer, and the Trustee. The Amended and Restated
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Series 1998-A Supplement and any
amendments, exhibits and schedules thereto are collectively referred to herein
as the "Agreement." The corpus of the Trust consists of (i) a portfolio of
<PAGE> 58
receivables (the "Receivables") arising under selected VISA and MasterCard*
consumer credit card accounts or other revolving consumer credit accounts (the
"Accounts") in portfolios of revolving consumer credit accounts owned by any of
the Bank or any Additional Seller, (ii) all monies due or to become due in
payment of the Receivables, all proceeds of the Receivables (other than
investment earnings related to such proceeds), (iii) the right to receive
certain Interchange attributed to cardholder charges for merchandise and
services in the Accounts, (iv) certain amounts recovered from Accounts in which
the Receivables have been written off as uncollectible, (v) proceeds of credit
insurance policies relating to the Receivables and (vi) all monies on deposit
in certain bank accounts of the Trust and the benefits of any type of

drawing on or payment of such Series Enhancement being available only to
Certificateholders of a specified Series or Class unless otherwise indicated in

(including 100% participations) representing undivided interests in a pool of
assets primarily consisting of revolving credit card receivables or consumer
loan receivables (secured and unsecured), and any interests in both such types
of receivables, including securities representing or backed by both such types
of receivables, and other self-liquidating financial assets owned by the Seller
or any affiliate of the Seller and collections thereon. The Bank, as Seller,
conveyed to the Trust all Receivables existing under certain designated
Accounts at the time of the formation of the Trust and all Receivables arising
under such Accounts from time to time thereafter. In addition, the Seller has
conveyed and the Seller may convey in the future all Receivables existing under
certain designated Additional Accounts (including Automatic Additional
Accounts) and all Receivables thereafter arising in such Additional Accounts.
Although a summary of certain provisions of the Agreement is
set forth below, this Class A Certificate does not purport to summarize the
Agreement, is qualified in its entirety by the terms and provisions of the
Agreement and reference is made to that Agreement for information with respect
to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced
hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee. A copy of the
Agreement may be obtained from the Trustee by writing to the Trustee at Four
Albany Street, New York, New York 10006, Attention: Corporate Trust and Agency
Group/Structured Finance Group. To the extent not defined herein, the
capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Agreement.
This Class A Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement to which the Holder of this
Class A Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and is bound.
It is the intent of the Seller and the Class A
Certificateholders that, for federal income taxes, state and local income and
franchise taxes and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income, the Class
A Certificates will be treated as indebtedness secured by the Receivables. The
Servicer by entering into the Agreement and the Seller, the Holder of the Bank
Certificate, each Holder of a Class A Certificate and each Holder of a Class B
Certificate, by acceptance of its Certificate, agrees to treat the Series
1998-A Certificates for purposes of federal
- -------------------------------

A-1-2
<PAGE> 59
income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes, and any other taxes
imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness of the Seller.
Subject to the terms of the Agreement, payments of principal
of the Class A Certificates are limited to the unpaid Class A Investor Amount,
which may be less than the unpaid principal balance of the Class A
Certificates, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. All principal of and
interest on the Class A Certificates is scheduled to be paid by the January
2001 Distribution Date but may be paid earlier. Subject to prior termination
as provided in the Agreement, the interest of the Series 1998-A
Certificateholders in the Trust will terminate following the earliest of (i)
the date on which the Investor Amount is paid in full, (ii) the July 2003
Distribution Date and (iii) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section
12.01 of the Agreement.
The Receivables consist of Principal Receivables which arise
generally from the purchase of goods and services and cash advances and in
respect of Periodic Finance Charges, Overlimit Fees, Late Fees, annual
membership fees and annual service charges, if any, Cash Advance Fees,
transaction charges and all other fees and charges with respect to the Accounts
designated by the Seller to be included in Finance Charge Receivables. This
Certificate is one of a series of Certificates entitled "ADVANTA Credit Card
Master Trust II, Class A Floating Rate Asset Backed Certificates, Series
1998-A" (the "Class A Certificates"), each of which represents a fractional
undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The Trust's assets are
allocated in part to the Holders of the Class A Certificates, in part to the
Holders of the Class B Certificates, in part to the Collateral Interest Holder,
in part to the Holders of Investor Certificates of all other Series and in part
to the Seller as Holder of the Bank Certificate and the Holders of any
Supplemental Certificates outstanding from time to time. The Bank Certificate
and the Holders of any outstanding Supplemental Certificates represent the
Sellers' Interest in the Trust. The Bank Certificate and any outstanding
Supplemental Certificates represent the interest in the Principal Receivables
not represented by the Investor Certificates.
The aggregate interest represented by the Series 1998-A
Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables in the Trust shall not
exceed an amount equal to the Principal Allocation Percentage thereof (as set
forth in the Agreement) at such time. The Initial Investor Amount is
$1,150,000,000. The Invested Amount for any date will equal the sum of the
Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount and the Collateral
Invested Amount. The Class A Initial Invested Amount is $724,500,000. The
Class A Initial Investor Amount is $966,000,000. The Class A Invested Amount
for any date of determination will be an amount equal to (a) the Class A
Initial Invested Amount, plus (b) the amount of any increases in the Class A
Invested Amount during the Funding Period, minus (c) the aggregate amount of
principal payments (other than principal payments made from amounts on deposit
in the Pre-Funding Account on the first Distribution Date following the end of
the Funding Period) made to the Class A Certificateholders on or prior to such
date, minus (d) the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of Class A Investor
Charge-offs for all prior Distribution Dates over the aggregate amount of Class
A Investor Charge-Offs reimbursed prior to such date, minus (e) the Principal
Funding Account Balance.
Interest will be distributed monthly on the 15th day of each
calendar month or, if such 15th day is not a Business Day, payment will be made
on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a "Distribution Date"), commencing
April 15, 1998, in an amount equal to the product of
A-1-3
<PAGE> 60
(i) (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, times (b) the
Class A Certificate Rate, and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the
Class A Certificates as of the preceding Record Date (or, in the case of the
first Distribution Date, as of the Closing Date).
The Class A Certificates will bear interest for each Interest
Period at the rate of 0.04% per annum above LIBOR determined as set forth below
(the "Class A Certificate Rate").
The Trustee will determine LIBOR on February 4, 1998 for the
period from the Closing Date through April 14, 1998 and for each Interest
Period thereafter, on the second London Business Day prior to the Distribution
Date on which such Interest Period commences (each, a "LIBOR Determination
Date"). A "London Business Day" is any day on which dealings in deposits in
United States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market. The Class
A Certificate Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding
Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Trustee at its Corporate
Trust Office at (800) 735-7777.
The determination of LIBOR will be made in accordance with the
following provisions:
(i) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee will
determine LIBOR based on the rate for deposits in United States
dollars for a period of the Designated Maturity which appears on
Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such date.
(ii) If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the
Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of quotations of the offered
rates for deposits in United States dollars provided by the Reference
Banks at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such LIBOR
Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a
period of the Designated Maturity. If at least two such quotations
are provided, LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.
(iii) If, on the LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not
appear on Telerate Page 3750 and only one or none of the Reference
Banks provides such offered quotations, LIBOR will be the rate per
annum that the Trustee determines to be the arithmetic mean of the
offered quotations that three major banks in The City of New York
selected by the Servicer are quoting 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.
"Designated Maturity" as used in the preceding provisions
means, for the initial LIBOR Determination Date, two months, and for each LIBOR
Determination Date thereafter, one month.
On each Distribution Date with respect to the Class A
Accumulation Period, an amount equal to the least of (a) Available Investor
Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such
Distribution Date, (b) the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Distribution Date
and (c) the Class A Invested Amount, will be deposited in the Principal Funding
Account for payment to the Class A Certificateholders on the Class A
A-1-4
<PAGE> 61
Expected Final Distribution Date or on the first Distribution Date with respect
to the Rapid Amortization Period.
On each Distribution Date during the Rapid Amortization Period
until the Class A Investor Amount has been paid in full or the Series
Termination Date occurs, the Class A Certificateholders will be entitled to
receive Available Investor Principal Collections in an amount up to the Class A
Investor Amount.
On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Investor
Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the maximum Invested Amount during the
Revolving Period the Seller will have the option (to be exercised in its sole
discretion) to repurchase the Certificates.
This Class A Certificate does not represent an obligation of,
or an interest in, Advanta Corp., the Bank, any Additional Seller, the Servicer
or any Affiliate of any of them. None of the Class A Certificates, the
Accounts nor the Receivables are deposits or insured or guaranteed by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. 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 herein and in the Agreement.
The Agreement may be amended under certain circumstances by
the Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee, without Certificateholder consent,
provided that (i) the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate to the effect that the Seller reasonably believes that such
amendment will not result in the occurrence of a Pay Out Event or materially
adversely affect the amount or timing of distributions to be made to the
Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class and (ii) written
confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not result in a
reduction or withdrawal of the rating of the Series 1998-A Certificates or the
rating of any other outstanding Series or Class with respect to which it is a
Rating Agency.
The Agreement may be amended by the Servicer, the Seller and
the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of Investor Certificates
evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Investor Amount of the
Investor Certificates of all adversely affected Series, for the purpose of
adding any provisions to, changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of the Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of
Investor Certificateholders of any Series then issued and outstanding;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, distributions to Investor Certificateholders
or deposits of amounts to be so distributed or the amount available under any
Series Enhancement without the consent to any such amendment of each affected
Certificateholder, (b) change the definition of or the manner of calculating
the interest of any Investor Certificateholder without the consent of each
affected Investor Certificateholder, (c) reduce the aforesaid percentage
required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of each Investor
Certificateholder or (d) adversely affect the rating of any Series or Class by
each 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
Investor Amount of the Investor Certificates of such Series or Class.
The Class A Certificates are issuable only in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of
this Class A Certificate shall be
A-1-5
<PAGE> 62
registered in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Class A
Certificate for registration of transfer at any office or agency maintained by
the Transfer Agent and Registrar accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and
Registrar, duly executed by the Holder or his attorney and duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Class A Certificates of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate fractional undivided interest will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Class A Certificate is exchangeable for a
new Class A Certificate evidencing a like aggregate fractional undivided
interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering this Class A Certificate. No
service charge may be imposed for any such exchange, but the Transfer Agent and
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentation of this Class A Certificate for
registration of transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Paying Agent
and the Trustee and any agent of any of them may treat the person in whose name
this Class A Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar
nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary except
in certain circumstances described in the Agreement.
This Class A Certificate shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its
conflict of law provisions.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, or by an
authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee, this Class A Certificate shall
not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose.

This certifies that CEDE & CO. (the "Investor
Certificateholder") is the registered owner of an undivided interest in certain
assets of a trust (the "Trust"), created pursuant to the Amended and Restated
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1993, and as amended

This Class B Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement to which the Holder of this

Certificateholders that, for federal income taxes, state and local income and
franchise taxes and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income, the Class

acceptance of its Certificate, agrees to treat the Series 1998-A Certificates
for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise
taxes, and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness of
the Seller.
Subject to the terms of the Agreement, payments of principal
of the Class B Certificates are limited to the unpaid Class B Investor Amount,
which may be less than the unpaid principal balance of the Class B
Certificates, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. Principal payments on
the Class B Certificates will not be made until the Class A Certificates have
been paid in full. All principal of and interest on the Class B Certificates
is scheduled to be paid by the February 2001 Distribution Date, but may be paid

Master Trust II, Class B Floating Rate Asset Backed Certificates, Series
1998-A" (the "Class B Certificates"), each of which represents a fractional
undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The Trust's assets are
allocated in part to the Holders of the Class B Certificates and in part to the
Holders of the Class A Certificates, in part to the Collateral Interest Holder,
in part to the Holders of Investor Certificates of all other Series and in part
to the Seller as Holder of the Bank Certificate and the Holders of any
outstanding Supplemental Certificates outstanding from time to time. The Bank
Certificate and any outstanding Supplemental Certificates represent the
Sellers' Interest in the Trust. The Bank Certificate and any outstanding
Supplemental Certificates represent the interest in the Principal Receivables
not represented by the Investor Certificates.
THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES ARE SUBORDINATED TO THE CLASS A
CERTIFICATES TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT.
The aggregate interest represented by the Series 1998-A
Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables in the Trust shall not
exceed an amount equal to the Principal Allocation Percentage thereof (as set
forth in the Agreement) at such time. The Initial Investor Amount is
$1,150,000,000. The Invested Amount for any date will equal the sum of the
Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount and the Collateral
Invested Amount. The Class B Initial Invested Amount is $64,687,500. The
Class B Initial Investor Amount is $86,250,000. The Class B Invested Amount
for any date will be an amount equal to (a) the Class B Initial Invested
Amount, plus (b) the amount of any increases in the Class B Invested Amount
during the Funding Period, minus (c) the aggregate amount of principal payments
(other than principal payments made from amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding
Account on the first Distribution Date following the end of the Funding Period)
made to the Class B Certificateholders prior to such date, minus (d) the
excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of Class B Investor Charge-Offs for all
prior Distribution Dates over the aggregate amount of any reimbursement of
Class B Investor Charge-Offs for all Distribution Dates preceding such date,
minus (e) the amount of
A-2-3
<PAGE> 68
Reallocated Principal Collections allocated on all prior Distribution Dates,
minus (f) an amount equal to the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount
has been reduced pursuant to subsection 4.6(a) of the Agreement on all prior
Distribution Dates and plus (g) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance
Charges allocated and available on all prior Distribution Dates for the purpose
of reimbursing amounts deducted pursuant to the foregoing clauses (d), (e) and
(f); provided, however, that the Class B Invested Amount may not be reduced
below zero.
Interest will be distributed monthly on the 15th day of each
calendar month or, if such 15th day is not a Business Day, payment will be made
on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a "Distribution Date"), commencing
April 15, 1998, in an amount equal to the product of (i)(a) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related Interest Period
divided by 360, times (b) the Class B Certificate Rate, and (ii) the
outstanding principal amount of the Class B Certificates as of the preceding
Record Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date as of the Closing
Date).
The Class B Certificates will bear interest for each Interest
Period at the rate of 0.24% per annum above LIBOR determined as set forth below
(the "Class B Certificate Rate").
The Trustee will determine LIBOR on February 4, 1998 for the
period from the Closing Date through April 14, 1998 and for each Interest
Period thereafter, on the second London Business Day prior to the Distribution
Date on which such Interest Period commences (each, a "LIBOR Determination
Date"). A "London Business Day" is any day on which dealings in deposits in
United States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market. The Class
B Certificate Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding
Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Trustee at its Corporate
Trust Office at (800) 735-7777.
The determination of LIBOR will be made in accordance with the
following provisions:
(i) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee will
determine LIBOR based on the rate for deposits in United States
dollars for a period of the Designated Maturity which appears on
Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such date.
(ii) If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the
Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of quotations of the offered
rates for deposits in United States dollars provided by the Reference
Banks at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such LIBOR
Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a
period of the Designated Maturity. If at least two such quotations
are provided, LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.
(iii) If, on the LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not
appear on Telerate Page 3750 and only one or none of the Reference
Banks provides such offered quotations, LIBOR will be the rate per
annum that the Trustee determines to be the arithmetic mean of the
offered quotations that three major banks in The City of New York
selected by the Servicer are quoting 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.
A-2-4
<PAGE> 69
"Designated Maturity" shall mean, for the initial LIBOR
Determination Date, two months and for each LIBOR Determination Date
thereafter, one month.
After the Class A Investor Amount has been paid in full on
each Distribution Date with respect to the Class B Accumulation Period, amounts
equal to the least of (a) Available Investor Principal Collection on deposit in
the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date, (minus the
portion of such Available Investor Principal Collections applied to Class A
Monthly Principal on such Distribution Date), (b) the Controlled Deposit Amount
for such Distribution Date and (c) the Class B Invested Amount, will be
deposited in the Principal Funding Account for payment to the Class B
Certificateholders until the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full.
On each Distribution Date during the Rapid Amortization Period
(following the payment in full of the Class A Certificates) until the Class B
Invested Amount has been paid in full or the Series Termination Date occurs,
the Class B Certificateholders will be entitled to receive Available Investor
Principal Collections (minus the portion of Available Investor Principal
Collections applied to Class A Monthly Principal on such Distribution Date) in
an amount up to the Class B Invested Amount.
On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Investor
Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the maximum Invested Amount during the
Revolving Period, the Seller will have the option (to be exercised in their
sole discretion) to repurchase the Certificates.
This Class B Certificate does not represent an obligation of,
or an interest in, Advanta Corp., the Bank, any Additional Seller, the Servicer
or any Affiliate of any of them. None of the Class B Certificates, the
Accounts nor the Receivables are deposits or insured or guaranteed by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. This
Class B Certificate is limited in right of payment to certain Collections
respecting the Receivables (and certain other amounts), all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.
The Agreement may be amended under certain circumstances by
the Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee, without Certificateholder consent,
provided that (i) the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate to the effect that the Seller reasonably believes that such
amendment will not result in the occurrence of a Pay out Event or materially
adversely affect the amount or timing of distributions to be made to the
Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class and (ii) written
confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not result in a
reduction or withdrawal of the rating of the Series 1998-A Certificates or the
rating of any other outstanding Series or Class with respect to which it is a
Rating Agency.
The Agreement may be amended by the Servicer, the Seller and
the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of Investor Certificates
evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Investor Amount of the
Investor Certificates of all adversely affected Series, for the purpose of
adding any provisions to, changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of the Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of
Investor Certificateholders of any Series then issued and outstanding;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, distributions to
A-2-5
<PAGE> 70
Investor Certificateholders or deposits of amounts to be so distributed or the
amount available under any Series Enhancement without the consent to any such
amendment of each affected Certificateholder, (b) change the definition of or
the manner of calculating the interest of any Investor Certificateholder
without the consent of each affected Investor Certificateholder, (c) reduce the
aforesaid percentage required to consent to any such amendment without the
consent of each Investor Certificateholder or (d) adversely affect the rating
of any Series or Class by each 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 Investor Amount of the Investor Certificates of such
Series or Class.
The Class B Certificates are issuable only in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of
this Class B Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register upon
surrender of this Class B Certificate for registration of transfer at any
office or agency maintained by the Transfer Agent and Registrar accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Transfer Agent and Registrar, duly executed by the Holder or his attorney and
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Class B Certificates
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate fractional undivided
interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Class B Certificate is exchangeable for a
new Class B Certificate evidencing a like aggregate fractional undivided
interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering this Class B Certificate. No
service charge may be imposed for any such exchange, but the Transfer Agent and
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
This Class B Certificate may not be acquired by or for the
account of any benefit plan, trust or account, including an individual
retirement account, that is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974, as amended, or that is described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or an entity whose underlying assets
include plan assets by reason of a plan's investment in such entity (a "Benefit
Plan"). By accepting and holding this Class B Certificate, the Holder hereof
shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit
Plan. By acquiring any interest in this Class B Certificate, the applicable
Certificate Owner or Owners shall be deemed to have represented and warranted
that it or they are not Benefit Plans.
Prior to due presentation of this Class B Certificate for
registration of transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Paying Agent
and the Trustee and any agent of any of them may treat the person in whose name
this Class B Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar
nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary except
in certain circumstances described in the Agreement.
This Class B Certificate shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its
conflict of law provisions.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, or by an
authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee, this
A-2-6
<PAGE> 71
Class B Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement,
