Rights of Series 2009-VFN Noteholders and Allocation and Application of Collections

Section 5.1 Collections and Allocations

(a) Allocations. Finance Charge Collections, Principal Collections and Defaulted Receivables allocated to Series 2009-VFN pursuant to Article VIII of the Indenture shall be allocated and distributed as set forth in this Article.

(b) Allocations to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders. The Servicer shall on the Date of Processing, allocate to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders the following amounts as set forth below:

(i) Allocations of Finance Charge Collections. The Servicer shall allocate to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders an amount equal to the product of (A) the Allocation Percentage and (B) the aggregate Finance Charge Collections processed on such Date of Processing and shall deposit such amount into the Finance Charge Account, provided that, with respect to each Monthly Period falling in the Revolving Period (and with respect to that portion of each Monthly Period in the Controlled Amortization Period falling on or after the day on which Collections of Principal Receivables equal to the Controlled Amortization Amount have been allocated pursuant to clause 5.1(b)(ii)), so long as the Available Cash Collateral Amount is not less than the Required Cash Collateral Amount on such Date of Processing, Collections of Finance Charge Receivables shall be transferred into the Finance Charge Account only until such time as the aggregate amount so deposited equals the product of (x) [        ] and (y) the sum (the “Target Amount”).

With respect to any Monthly Period when deposits of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables into the Finance Charge Account are limited to deposits up to 1.5 times the Target Amount in accordance with clause (i) above, notwithstanding such limitation and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a) of the Indenture: (1) Reallocated Principal Collections for the related Transfer Date shall be calculated as if the full amount of Finance Charge Collections allocated to the Noteholders during that Monthly Period had been deposited in the Finance Charge Account and applied on such Transfer Date in accordance with subsection 5.4(a); and (2) Collections of Finance Charge Receivables released to Transferor pursuant to such Section 5.1(b)(i) shall be deemed, for purposes of all calculations under this Indenture Supplement, to have been retained in the Finance Charge Account and applied to the items

 

20


specified in subsections 5.4(a) to which such amounts would have been applied (and in the priority in which they would have been applied) had such amounts been available in the Finance Charge Account on such Transfer Date. To avoid doubt, the calculations referred to in the preceding clause (2) include the calculations required by clause (b) of the definition of Collateral Amount and by the definition of Portfolio Yield.

(ii) Allocations of Principal Collections. The Servicer shall allocate to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders the following amounts as set forth below:

(x) Allocations During the Revolving Period.

(1) During the Revolving Period an amount equal to the product of the Allocation Percentage and the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of Processing, shall be allocated to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders and first, if an Optional Amortization Notice has been given or any other Principal Sharing Series is outstanding and in its accumulation period or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account for application, to the extent necessary, as Optional Amortization and as Shared Principal Collections for other Principal Sharing Series on the related Distribution Date, second deposited in the Excess Funding Account to the extent necessary so that the Transferor Amount is not less than the Minimum Transferor Amount and third paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest.

(2) With respect to each Monthly Period falling in the Revolving Period, to the extent that Collections of Principal Receivables allocated to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders pursuant to this clause 5.1(b)(ii) are paid to Transferor, Transferor shall make an amount equal to the Reallocated Principal Collections for the related Transfer Date available on that Transfer Date for application in accordance with Section 5.6.

(y) Allocations During the Controlled Amortization Period. During the Controlled Amortization Period an amount equal to the product of the Allocation Percentage and the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of Processing (the product for any such date is hereinafter referred to as a “Percentage Allocation”) shall be allocated to the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders and transferred to the Principal Account until applied as provided herein; provided, however, that if the sum of such Percentage Allocation and all preceding Percentage Allocations with respect to the same Monthly Period exceeds the Controlled Payment Amount during the Controlled Amortization Period 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 is outstanding and in its accumulation period or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account for application, to the extent necessary, as Shared Principal Collections to other Principal Sharing Series on the related Distribution Date, second deposited in the Excess Funding Account to the extent necessary so that the Transferor Amount is not less than the Minimum Transferor Amount and third paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest.

 

21


(z) Allocations During the Early Amortization Period. During the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to the product of the Allocation Percentage and the aggregate amount of Principal Collections processed on such Date of Processing shall be allocated to the 2009-VFN Noteholders and transferred to the Principal Account until applied as provided herein; provided, however, that after the date on which an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the Note Principal Balance has been deposited into the Principal Account such amount shall be first, if any other Principal Sharing Series is outstanding and in its accumulation period or amortization period, retained in the Principal Account for application, to the extent necessary, as Shared Principal Collections to other Principal Sharing Series on the related Distribution Date, second deposited in the Excess Funding Account to the extent necessary so that the Transferor Amount is not less than the Minimum Transferor Amount and third paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest.

(c) During any period when Servicer is permitted by Section 8.4 of the Indenture to make a single monthly deposit to the Collection Account, amounts allocated to the Noteholders pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and (b) with respect to any Monthly Period need not be deposited into the Collection Account or any Series Account prior to the related Transfer Date, and, when so deposited, (x) may be deposited net of any amounts required to be distributed to Transferor and, if WFCB is Servicer, to Servicer, and (y) shall be deposited into the Finance Charge Account (in the case of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables) and the Principal Account (in the case of Collections of Principal Receivables (not including any Shared Principal Collections allocated to Series 2009-VFN pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Indenture)).

(d) On any date, Servicer may direct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Collection Account or any Series Account any amounts inadvertently deposited in such account that should have not been so deposited.

Section 5.2 Determination of Monthly Interest.

(a) Pursuant to the Class A Note Purchase Agreement, certain Class A Ownership Tranches may from time to time be divided into one or more subdivisions (each, as further specified in the Class A Note Purchase Agreement, a “Class A Funding Tranche”) which will accrue interest on different bases. The amount of monthly interest (“Class A Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Distribution Account with respect to the Class A Notes on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the aggregate amount of interest that accrued over that Distribution Period on each Class A Funding Tranche (plus the aggregate amount of interest that accrued over any prior Distribution Period on any Class A Funding Tranche and has not yet been paid, plus additional interest (to the extent permitted by law) on such overdue amounts at the weighted average interest rate applicable to the related Class A Ownership Tranche during that Distribution Period, and minus any overpayment of interest on the prior Distribution Date as a result of the estimation referred to below), all as determined by Servicer on the related Determination Date. For purposes of such determination, Servicer shall rely upon information provided by the various Administrative Agents pursuant to the Class A Note Purchase Agreement including estimates of the interest to accrue on any Class A Funding Tranche through the related Distribution Date. The interest accrued on any Class A Ownership Tranche (or related

 

22


Class A Funding Tranche) for any Distribution Period shall be determined using the applicable Tranche Rate and shall equal the product of (x) the Weighted Average Class A Principal Balance for that Class A Ownership Tranche (or Class A Funding Tranche), (y) the applicable Tranche Rate and (z) the applicable Day Count Fraction.

(b) The amount of monthly interest (“Class M Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Distribution Account with respect to the Class M Notes on any 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 Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class M Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) the average Class M Principal Balance outstanding during the preceding Monthly Period.

On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the “Class M Deficiency Amount”), of (x) the aggregate amount accrued pursuant to this subsection 5.2(b) as of the prior Distribution Date over (y) the amount of funds actually transferred from the Distribution Account for payment of such amount. If the Class M Deficiency Amount for any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Class M Deficiency Amount is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class M Additional Interest”) equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class M Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) such Class M Deficiency Amount (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class M Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class M Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class M Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class M Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(c) The amount of monthly interest (“Class B Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Distribution Account with respect to the Class B Notes on any 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 Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class B Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) the average Class B Principal Balance outstanding during the preceding Monthly Period.

On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the “Class B Deficiency Amount”), of (x) the aggregate amount accrued pursuant to this subsection 5.2(c) as of the prior Distribution Date over (y) the amount of funds actually transferred from the Distribution Account for payment of such amount. If the Class B Deficiency Amount for any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Class B Deficiency Amount is fully paid, 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 related Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class B Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) such Class B Deficiency Amount (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class B Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class B Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class B Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class B Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

23


(d) The amount of monthly interest (“Class C Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Distribution Account with respect to the Class C Notes on any 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 Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class C Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) the average Class C Principal Balance outstanding during the preceding Monthly Period.

On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the “Class C Deficiency Amount”), of (x) the aggregate amount accrued pursuant to this subsection 5.2(d) as of the prior Distribution Date over (y) the amount of funds actually transferred from the Distribution Account for payment of such amount. If the Class C Deficiency Amount for any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Class C Deficiency Amount is fully paid, an additional amount (“Class C Additional Interest”) equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related Distribution Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Class C Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Distribution Period and (ii) such Class C Deficiency Amount (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class C Noteholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class C Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class C Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class C Noteholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(e) If any distribution of principal is made with respect to any Funding Tranche funded through the issuance of commercial paper notes or accruing interest based on LIBOR other than on (i) the day on which the related funding source, to the extent subject to a contracted maturity date, matures or (ii) or a Distribution Date, or if the Class A Principal Balance of any Ownership Tranche is reduced by an Optional Amortization Amount in an amount greater than the amount (if any) specified in the Class A Note Purchase Agreement with respect to that Ownership Tranche without the applicable number (as specified in the Class A Note Purchase Agreement) of Business Days’ prior notice to the affected Series 2009-VFN Noteholder, and in either case (i) the interest paid by the Class A Noteholder holding that Funding Tranche to providers of funds to it to fund that Funding Tranche exceeds (ii) returns earned by that Class A Noteholder through the related Distribution Date (or, if earlier, the maturity date for the related funding source) by redeployment of such funds in highly rated short-term money market instruments, then, upon written notice (which notice shall be signed by an officer of that Class A Noteholder with knowledge of and responsibility for such matters and shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting the amounts) from such Class A Noteholder to Servicer, such Class A Noteholder shall be entitled to receive additional amounts in the amount of such excess (each, a “Breakage Payment”) on the Distribution Date on or after the date such distribution of principal is made with respect to that Funding Tranche, so long as such written notice is received not later than noon, New York City time, on the Transfer Date related to such Distribution Date. For purposes of calculations under this paragraph, any payment received by a Class A Noteholder later than noon, New York City time, on any day shall be deemed to have been received on the next day.

The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders. If at any time the institution holding the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Transferor shall notify the Indenture Trustee in writing, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall, within ten (10) Business Days, establish a new Finance Charge Account, a new Principal Account and a new Distribution Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Finance Charge Account, new Principal Account and new Distribution Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall make withdrawals from the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account from time to time, in the amounts and for the purposes set forth in this Indenture Supplement. Indenture Trustee at all times shall maintain accurate records reflecting each transaction in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account.

(b) Funds on deposit in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account and the Distribution Account, from time to time shall be invested and reinvested at the direction of the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. The Servicer shall give a written standing instruction for such investments, and amounts in such accounts will not be invested if the Servicer fails to give such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

(c) Section 6.14 of the Indenture shall apply to the Series Accounts.

Section 5.10 Cash Collateral Account.

(a) The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain with an Eligible Institution, which may be the Indenture Trustee in the name of the Trust, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders, a segregated trust account (the “Cash Collateral Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2009-VFN Noteholders. The Indenture 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.

If at any time the institution holding the Cash Collateral Account ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Transferor shall notify the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall, within ten (10) Business Days, establish a new Cash Collateral Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Cash Collateral Account.

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.

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 retained in the Cash Collateral Account (to the extent that the Available Cash Collateral Account Amount is less than the Required Cash Collateral Account Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited into the Finance Charge Account and included in Available Finance Charge Collections for such Transfer Date. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Cash Collateral Account for any reason under this Indenture Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, interest and earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit.

(c) On each Determination Date, Servicer shall calculate the amount (the “Required Draw Amount”) by which the sum of the amounts required to be distributed pursuant to clauses 5.4(a)(i) through (vii) with respect to the related Transfer Date exceeds the amount of Available Finance Charge Collections with respect to the related Monthly Period. If the Required Draw Amount for any Transfer Date is greater than zero, Servicer shall give written notice to the Indenture Trustee 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, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Cash Collateral Account and distributed to fund any deficiency pursuant to clauses 5.4(a)(i) through (vii) (in the order of priority set forth in subsection 5.4(a)).

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.11, the Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Spread Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Spread Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the holder of the Transferor Interest. If at any time the institution holding the Spread Account ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee in writing, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as to which the Rating Agencies may consent) establish a new Spread Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Spread Account.

On each Transfer Date (but subject to subsection 5.11(c)), the Investment Earnings, if any, credited to the Spread Account since the preceding Transfer Date shall be paid to the holders of the Transferor Interest by the Indenture Trustee upon written direction of the Servicer. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Spread Account for any reason under this Indenture Supplement (subject to subsection 5.11(c)), all Investment Earnings shall be deemed not to be available or on deposit; provided that after the maturity of the Series 2009-VFN Notes has been accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, all Investment Earnings credited to the Spread Account shall be added to the balance on deposit in the Spread Account and treated like the rest of the Available Spread Account Amount.

(c) If, on any Transfer Date, the aggregate amount of Available Finance Charge Collections and the amount, if any, withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account available for deposit into the Distribution Account pursuant to subsection 5.10(c), is less than the aggregate amount required to be deposited pursuant to clause 5.4(a)(ix), the Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall withdraw from the Spread Account the amount of such deficiency up to the Available Spread Account Amount and, if the Available Spread Account Amount is less than such deficiency, Investment Earnings credited to the Spread Account, and deposit such amount in the Distribution Account for payment to the Class C Noteholders in respect of interest on the Class C Notes.

(f) If on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to all withdrawals from the Spread Account, the Available Spread Account Amount is less than the Required Spread Account Amount then in effect, Available Finance Charge Collections, to the extent available, shall be deposited into the Spread Account pursuant to clause 5.4(a)(x) up to the amount of the Spread Account Deficiency.

Any investment instructions required to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given in the form of a written standing instruction to the Indenture Trustee no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Indenture Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by the Indenture Trustee after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such day, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day such investment is requested to be made. If investment instructions are not given with respect to funds in any Accounts, such funds shall remain uninvested until instructions are delivered to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 5.13 Determination of LIBOR.

(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date in respect of a Distribution Period, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a period of the Designated Maturity which appears on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. If such rate does not appear on the Designated LIBOR Page, the rate for that Distribution Period Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of the Designated Maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two (2) such quotations are provided, the rate for that Distribution Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two (2) quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that Distribution Period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a period of the Designated Maturity. LIBOR for the first Distribution Period will be determined by straight-line interpolation, based on the actual number of days in such Distribution Period from the date of the initial Class A Incremental Funding to but excluding November 16, 2009, between two rates determined in accordance with the preceding paragraph, one of which will be determined for a maturity of one month and one of which will be determined for a maturity of two months.

(b) LIBOR that may be applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding Distribution Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at (800) 934-6802 or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose by prior written notice by the Indenture Trustee to each Series 2009-VFN Noteholder from time to time.
