(b) Payment of the BACSC Fee shall be independent of, and shall not be conditioned in any way on, the receipt by BANA(USA) of the Subservicing Fee under the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement.

4. Duties of BACSC. (a) BACSC shall perform all of the duties of BANA(USA) under the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement which BANA(USA) shall request that BACSC perform. In connection with such performance, BACSC shall, as agent for BANA(USA) and the Servicer, take all actions reasonably requested by BANA(USA) to subservice and administer the Receivables arising in the Funding Accounts, to collect and remit to the Servicer payments due under such Receivables and to charge-off as uncollectible such Receivables, in each case in accordance with the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the applicable Credit Card Agreements, the applicable Credit Card Guidelines, and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, BACSC’s customary and usual servicing procedures for servicing credit card receivables comparable to such Receivables. As agent for BANA(USA), BACSC shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through BANA(USA), to do any and all things in connection with such subservicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable and which is permitted of BANA(USA) under the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement.

(b) BACSC shall not be obligated to use separate servicing or administrative procedures, offices, employees, or accounts for any of its duties hereunder, including subservicing the Receivables arising in the Funding Accounts and administering payments in respect of the Funding Accounts, from the procedures, offices, employees, and accounts used by BACSC in connection with its other activities, including servicing other comparable receivables and administering payments in respect of other comparable accounts.

(c) BANA(USA) shall furnish BACSC with any files, records, or documents necessary or appropriate to enable BACSC to carry out its subservicing and administrative duties hereunder. BACSC shall furnish BANA(USA) and the Servicer with any files, records, or documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(d) BACSC shall duly satisfy all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with each related Receivable and the related Funding Account, will maintain in effect all qualifications required under Requirements of Law in order to subservice properly each applicable Receivable and the related Funding Account, and will comply in all material respects with all other Requirements of Law in connection with subservicing and administering each applicable Receivable and the related Funding Account, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on Investor Certificateholders or Master Trust II.

(e) BACSC shall not authorize any rescission or cancellation of any Receivable arising in a Funding Account except in accordance with the applicable Credit Card Guidelines or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority.

(f) BACSC shall not take any action which, or omit to take any action the omission of which, would impair the rights of the Trustee in any Receivable arising in a Funding Account or the rights of MBNA in any Funding Account.

(g) Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of a Funding Account, BACSC shall not take any action to cause any Receivable arising in a Funding Account or any Funding Account to be evidenced by any instrument or chattel paper (as defined in the UCC).

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting to BACSC any right or power with respect to the Funding Accounts or the related Receivables that is more expansive than that granted to BANA(USA) with respect to the servicing and administration of the Receivables arising in the Funding Accounts under the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement.

(i) BACSC shall comply with and perform its obligations in accordance with the Credit Card Agreements and the Credit Card Guidelines in all material respects.

BACSC agrees that all collections and other payments received by BACSC on the Funding Accounts will be held in trust for the Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, until distributed to the Servicer or the Seller, as applicable. Subject to this subsection 4(j), BACSC may commingle Collections on the Receivables arising in the Funding Accounts to the extent permitted of the Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

5. Reimbursement. BACSC shall reimburse, without duplication of any such amount, each of BANA(USA), the Seller and the Servicer for any loss arising from a claim or demand (including any claim for damages and any demand to accept an assignment of any Receivable arising in a Funding Account) that is made against BANA(USA), the Seller or the Servicer under the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that arises from BACSC’s misconduct, negligence, or failure to abide by the terms of this Agreement (including the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement applicable to the Seller or the Servicer and the provisions of the MBNA Delegation of Servicing Agreement applicable to BANA(USA)).
