W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Bank, as Transferor, Servicer and Administrator, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Indenture Trustee and Collateral Agent, and the Trust are parties to the Third Amended and Restated Transfer and Servicing Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2007, as amended by the First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Transfer and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2009 (hereinafter as such agreement may have been, or may from time to time be, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Agreement”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, the Transferor wishes to remove from the Trust all Receivables owned by the Trust in certain designated Accounts (the “Removed Accounts”) and to cause the Trust to reconvey the Receivables of such Removed Accounts, whether now existing or hereafter created, from the Trust to the Transferor; and
WHEREAS, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is willing to accept such designation and to reconvey the Receivables in the Removed Accounts subject to the terms and conditions hereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Transferor and the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, hereby agree as follows:
| 1. | Defined Terms. All terms defined in the Agreement and the Third Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of December 19, 2007, used herein shall have such defined meanings when used herein, unless otherwise defined herein. |
“Removal Cut Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Removed Accounts, March 31, 2011.
“Removal Date” shall mean, with respect to the Removed Accounts designated hereby, May 4, 2011.
“Removal Notice Date” shall mean, with respect to the Removed Accounts, April 20, 2011.
| 2. | Designation of Removed Accounts. Within five Business Days after the Removal Date, or as otherwise agreed upon by the Transferor and the Owner Trustee, on |
1
behalf of the Trust, the Transferor will deliver to the Owner Trustee a computer file containing a true and complete list of all Removed Accounts identified by account number and the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in such Removed Account as of the Removal Cut Off Date, which computer file shall as of the Removal Date modify and amend and be made a part of the Agreement.
| 3. | Conveyance of Receivables. The Trust does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise reconvey to the Transferor, without recourse, on and after the Removal Date, all right, title and interest of the Trust in, to and under the Receivables now existing and hereafter created from time to time in the Removed Accounts identified on Schedule 1 hereto, all Interchange and Recoveries related thereto, all monies due or to become due (including all Finance Charge Receivables) and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto and all proceeds (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction) thereof (the “Removed Collateral”). |
| 4. | Representations and Warranties of the Transferor. The Transferor hereby represents and warrants to the Trust as of the Removal Date: |
| (a) | Legal Valid and Binding Obligation. This Reassignment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Transferor enforceable against the Transferor, in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity); |
| (b) | Satisfaction of Additional Requirements. All of the requirements for the removal of Accounts under the applicable Asset Pool Supplement have been satisfied; and |
| (c) | Required Transferor Amount. The removal of any Receivable of any Removed Accounts on any Removal Date shall not, in the reasonable belief of the Transferor, cause, with respect to the Asset Pool in which such Receivables had been designated for inclusion, an Adverse Effect or the Transferor Amount for such Asset Pool to be less than the Required Transferor Amount for that Asset Pool or the Pool Balance for that Asset Pool to be less than the Minimum Pool Balance for such Monthly Period in which such removal occurs. |
| 5. | Representations and Warranties of the Servicer. No selection procedures believed by the Servicer to be materially adverse to the interests of the Noteholders were utilized in selecting the Removed Accounts to be removed from the Trust and either (I) a random selection procedure was used by the Servicer in selecting the Removed Accounts and only one such removal of randomly selected Accounts shall occur in the then current Monthly Period, (II) the Removed Accounts arose |
2
pursuant to an affinity, private-label, agent-bank, co-branding or other arrangement with a third party that has been cancelled by such third party or has expired without renewal and which by its terms permits the third party to repurchase the Removed Accounts subject to such arrangement, upon such cancellation or non-renewal and the third party has exercised such repurchase right or (III) the Removed Accounts were selected using another method that will not preclude transfers from being accounted for as sales under generally accepted accounting principles or prevent the Trust from continuing to qualify as a qualifying special purpose entity in accordance with SFAS No. 140.
| 6. | Conditions Precedent. The reassignment hereunder of the Receivables in the Removed Accounts and the amendment of the Agreement pursuant to Section 8 of this Reassignment are each subject to: |
| (a) | the satisfaction, on or prior to the Removal Date, of the conditions set forth in Section 2.13(b) of the Agreement; and |
| (b) | the delivery, on or prior to the Removal Date, to the Owner Trustee by the Transferor and the Servicer of an Officer’s Certificate substantially in the form of Schedule 2-A or 2-B hereto to this Reassignment, as applicable. The Owner Trustee may conclusively rely on such Officer’s Certificate, shall have no duty to make inquiries with regard to the matters set forth therein and shall incur no liability in so relying. |
| 7. | Representations and Warranties of the Trust. Since the date of the transfer by the Transferor under the Agreement, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, has not sold, transferred or encumbered any Receivable in any Removed Account or any interest therein. |
| 8. | Amendment of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. The Agreement is hereby amended to provide that all references therein to the “Transfer and Servicing Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed from and after the Removal Date to be a dual reference to the Agreement as supplemented by this Reassignment. All references therein to the Accounts shall be deemed not to include the Removed Accounts designated hereunder and all references to Receivables shall be deemed not to include the Receivables reconveyed hereunder. Except as expressly amended hereby, all of the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and except as expressly provided herein shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with or a consent to noncompliance with any term or provision of the Agreement. |
| 9. | Release. |
