The amounts so deposited shall be applied on the Class A/B Expected Principal Payment Date and the Class C Expected Principal Payment Date, respectively, pursuant to subsection 4.4(c) as if the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period had not been suspended.
(c) Each Qualified Maturity Agreement shall terminate at the close of business on the Class C Expected Principal Payment Date; provided, however, that the Issuer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to such Distribution Date, with notice to each Rating Agency, if (i) the Available Reserve Account Amount equals the Required Reserve Account Amount and (ii) one of the following events occurs: (A) the Issuer obtains a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement, (B) the provider of the Qualified Maturity Agreement ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution and the Issuer is unable to obtain a substitute Qualified Maturity Agreement or (C) an Early Amortization Event occurs. In addition, the Issuer may terminate a Qualified Maturity Agreement prior to the later of (i) the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period was scheduled to begin, before giving effect to the suspension of the Controlled Accumulation Period, and (ii) the date to which the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period may be postponed pursuant to Section 4.14 (as determined on the Determination Date preceding the date of such termination), in which case the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period shall be determined as if the Issuer had not elected to suspend such commencement; provided, however, that the available Reserve Account Amount equals the Required Reserve Account Amount.

[ON FILE WITH THE PARTIES TO THE SWAP]
E-1-1
[ON FILE WITH THE PARTIES TO THE SWAP]
E-2-1
The following provisions shall become effective on the date specified in Section 9.9 in the circumstances described therein without an further action by the parties to this Indenture Supplement:
Alternative Definitions
“Controlled Accumulation Amount” means, for any Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of the Class A-1 Note Initial Principal Balance and the Class C-1 Note Initial Principal Balance by (b) 12; provided, however, that if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length is determined to be less than 12 months pursuant to Section 4.14 or 4.15, the amount described in clause (a) of this definition shall be equal to (i) the sum of the Class A-1 Note Initial Principal Balance and the Class C-1 Note Initial Principal Balance divided by (ii) the Controlled Accumulation Period Length; provided, further, that the Controlled Accumulation Amount for any Distribution Date shall not exceed the Note Principal Balance minus any amount already on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account on such Transfer Date.
“Covered Amount” means an amount, determined as of each Transfer Date for any Distribution Period, equal to the sum of (a) the product of (i) the Class A-1 Net Interest Obligation times (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account, up to the Class A-1 Note Principal Balance as of the Record Date preceding such Transfer Date, and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the Class A-1 Note Principal Balance as of the Record Date preceding such Transfer Date plus (b) the product of (i) the Class C-1 Net Interest Obligation times (ii) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account in excess of the Class A-1 Note Principal Balance as of the Record Date preceding such Transfer Date, up to the Class C-1 Note Principal Balance as of the Record Date preceding such Transfer Date, and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the Class C-1 Note Principal Balance as of the Record Date preceding such Transfer Date.
“Required Reserve Account Amount” means, for any Transfer Date on or after the Reserve Account Funding Date, an amount equal to (a) 0.50% of the sum of the Class A-1 Note Principal Balance and the Class C-1 Note Principal Balance or (b) any other amount designated by the Transferor; provided, however, that if such designation is of a lesser amount, the Transferor shall (i) provide the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee with evidence that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and (ii) deliver to the Indenture Trustee a certificate of an Authorized Officer to the effect that, based on the facts known to such officer at such time, in the reasonable belief of the Transferor, such designation will not cause an Early Amortization Event or an event that, after the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would cause an Early Amortization Event to occur with respect to Series 2003-A.
Alternative Section 4.14
Section 4.14 Controlled Accumulation Period. The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence at the beginning of business on May 1, 2007; provided that if the
F-1
Controlled Accumulation Period Length (determined as described below) on any Determination Date on or after the April 2007 Determination Date is less than 12 months, upon written notice to the Indenture Trustee, Transferor and, each Rating Agency, Servicer, at its option, may elect to modify the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences to the first Business Day of the month that is the number of whole months prior to the month in which the Class A/B Expected Principal Payment Date occurs at least equal to the Controlled Accumulation Period Length (so that, as a result of such election, the number of Monthly Periods in the Controlled Accumulation Period will at least equal the Controlled Accumulation Period Length); provided that (i) the length of the Controlled Accumulation Period will not be less than one month, (ii) such determination of the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall be made on each Determination Date on and after the April 2007 Determination Date but prior to the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period, and any election to shorten the Controlled Accumulation Period shall be subject to the subsequent lengthening of the Controlled Accumulation Period to the Controlled Accumulation Period Length determined on any subsequent Determination Date, but the Controlled Accumulation Period shall in no event commence prior to the Controlled Accumulation Date, and (iii) notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture Supplement to the contrary, no election to postpone the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period shall be made after an Early Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any other Series. The “Controlled Accumulation Period Length” will mean a number of whole months such that the amount on deposit in the Principal Accumulation Account is expected to equal or exceed the sum of the Class A-1 Note Principal Balance and the Class C-1 Note Principal Balance, assuming for this purpose that (1) the payment rate with respect to Principal Collections remains constant at the lowest level of such payment rate during the twelve preceding Monthly Periods (or such lower payment rate as 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 Early Amortization Event with respect to any Series will subsequently occur and (4) no additional Series (other than any Series being issued on such date of determination) will be subsequently issued. Any notice by Servicer electing to modify the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall specify (i) the Controlled Accumulation Period Length, (ii) the commencement date of the Controlled Accumulation Period and (iii) the Controlled Accumulation Amount with respect to each Monthly Period during the Controlled Accumulation Period. The Servicer shall calculate the Controlled Accumulation Period Length on each Determination Date prior to the April 2007 Determination Date as necessary to determine the Reserve Account Funding Date.
