Volcker Rule Considerations

The American Express Credit Account Master Trust is not now, and immediately following the issuance of the Series 201[•]-[•] certificates will not be, a “covered fund” for purposes of regulations adopted under Section 13 of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, commonly known as the “Volcker Rule.” In reaching this conclusion, although other statutory or regulatory exemptions under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, may be available, we have relied on the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act.

This summary highlights selected information about the certificates and does not contain all the information that you need to consider in making your investment decision. You should carefully read this entire document before you purchase any certificates.

Risk Factors

Investment in the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates involves certain risks. You should consider carefully the risk factors beginning on page [●] of this prospectus.

The Issuing Entity

American Express Credit Account Master Trust is the issuing entity of the certificates. It was formed in 1996 pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement. This agreement, as it has been amended and restated from time to time, most recently as of [            ] [    ], 2015 and as may be further amended from time to time, is among American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., as servicer, American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC and American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC, as transferors, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee.

We refer to the American Express Credit Account Master Trust as the “trust” or the “issuing entity.”

The trust is a master trust under which multiple series of certificates may be issued. The trust issues each series pursuant to a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement. The terms of a series are set forth in the series supplement.

Some classes or series may not be offered by this prospectus. They may be offered, for example, in a private placement offering.

Account Owners and Sponsors

The receivables owned by the trust will arise in designated credit or charge accounts owned by American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB or any of their affiliates.

Centurion

American Express Centurion Bank, a Utah industrial loan bank, owns credit card and other credit or charge accounts from which receivables are transferred to American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” and “Description of the Purchase Agreements.”

We refer to American Express Centurion Bank as “Centurion.”

FSB

American Express Bank, FSB, a federal savings bank, owns credit card and other credit or charge accounts from which receivables are transferred to American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” and “Description of the Purchase Agreements.”

We refer to American Express Bank, FSB as “FSB” and, together with Centurion, the “account owners” or the “banks.”

Servicer

American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. is the servicer of the trust. As servicer, it is responsible for servicing, managing and making collections on the receivables in the trust. See “Transaction Parties — Servicer” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Collection and Other Servicing Procedures” in this prospectus.

In limited cases, the servicer may resign or be removed, and either the trustee or a third party may be appointed as the new servicer. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Servicer Default” in this prospectus.

The servicer receives a servicing fee from the trust, and each series is obligated to pay a portion of that fee. See “Series Provisions — Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses” in this prospectus for a description of the monthly servicing fee allocated to each series of certificates.

Offered Securities

American Express Credit Account Master Trust is offering:

$[●] of Class A certificates; and

$[●] of Class B certificates.

In this document, references to Series 201[●]-[●] certificates include only the Class A certificates and Class B certificates and references to Series 201[●]-[●] include the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the collateral interest.

Only the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates are offered by this prospectus.

Beneficial interests in the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates may be purchased in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

The Series 201[●]-[●] certificates are expected to be issued on [●] [●], 201[●].

Distribution Dates

Distribution dates for the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will commence [●] [●], 201[●] and, after that, will be the 15th day of each month, if the 15th is a business day and, if not, the following business day.

Interest

Interest on the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will be paid on each distribution date.

The Class A certificates will bear interest at [[●]-month LIBOR as determined each month plus] [●]% per year. The Class B certificates will bear interest at [[●]-month LIBOR as determined each month plus] [●]% per year.

[Include for floating rate certificates: LIBOR for each interest period will be determined on the second business day before the beginning of that interest period. LIBOR for the initial interest period, however, will be determined two business days before the issuance date of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates. For calculating LIBOR only, a business day is any day that U.S. dollar deposits are transacted in the London interbank market.

LIBOR will be the rate appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or such other page as may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying comparable rates or prices) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that date for deposits in U.S. dollars for a [●]-month period. If that rate does not appear on that page, the servicer will request four prime banks (selected by the servicer) in the London interbank market to provide quotations of their rates for U.S. dollar deposits for a [●]-month period, at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day. LIBOR will then be the average of those rates. However, if less than two rates are provided, LIBOR will be the average of the rates for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a [●]-month period offered by four major banks (selected by the servicer) in New York City, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day.

Interest on the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates for any distribution date will be calculated as follows:

		Number of		Rate for
Principal amount at end of prior month	X	days in interest period	X	interest period
		360

You may obtain the interest rate for the current period and immediately preceding period by telephoning the trustee at (212) 815-6258.]

[Include for fixed rate certificates: Interest on the Class A certificates for any distribution date will equal one-twelfth the product of:

4

• the Class A certificate rate; and

• the principal amount of the Class A certificates as of the related record date.

For the first distribution date, however, interest on the Class A certificates will equal $[●].

Interest on the Class B certificates for any distribution date will equal one-twelfth the product of:

• the Class B certificate rate; and

• the principal amount of the Class B certificates as of the related record date.

For the first distribution date, however, interest on the Class B certificates will equal $[●].]

See “Series Provisions — Interest Payments” in this prospectus for a discussion of the determination of amounts available to pay interest[, including how and when LIBOR will be determined].

No payment of interest will be made on the Class B certificates until the required payment of interest has been made on the Class A certificates. See “—Credit Enhancement” and “Series Provisions — Subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Collateral Interest” in this prospectus.

Principal

Principal of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates is expected to be paid in full on the [●] 201[●] distribution date, which is the expected final payment date. On approximately [●] [●], 201[●], we are scheduled to begin accumulating collections of principal receivables for payment to you, but we may begin accumulating at a later date.

Although the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates are expected to be paid on the date noted above, principal may be paid earlier or later.

There is no penalty for early or late payment of principal. If certain adverse events known as pay-out events occur, principal may be paid earlier than expected. If collections of the credit card receivables are less than expected or are collected more slowly than expected, then principal payments may be delayed. No principal will be paid on the Class B certificates until the Class A certificates are paid in full.

The final payment of principal and interest on the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will be made no later than the [●] 201[●] distribution date.

See “Maturity Considerations” and “Series Provisions — Allocation Percentages” and “— Principal Payments” in this prospectus for a discussion of the determination of amounts available to pay principal.

The Collateral Interest

At the same time the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates are issued, the trust will issue an interest in the assets of the trust known as the collateral interest. The initial amount of the collateral interest is $[●], which represents [●]% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates plus the collateral interest.

The holder of the collateral interest will have voting and certain other rights as if the collateral interest were a subordinated class of certificates. The collateral interest will be subordinated to the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates.

The collateral interest is not offered by this prospectus.

Credit Enhancement

Subordination

Subordination of the Class B certificates provides credit enhancement for the Class A certificates. Subordination of the collateral interest provides credit enhancement for both the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates. In addition, the portion of the collateral interest that exceeds the collateral senior invested amount provides credit enhancement for the portion of the collateral interest represented by the collateral senior invested amount. If, on any distribution date, there are insufficient funds available to make required Class A certificate payments, certain funds that would otherwise be used to make required collateral interest and Class B certificate payments will be used to make required Class A certificate payments, and the collateral invested amount and the Class B invested amount will be reduced accordingly. Similarly, if on any distribution date, there are insufficient funds available to make required Class B certificate payments, certain funds that would otherwise be used to make required collateral interest payments will be used to make required Class B certificate payments, and the collateral invested amount will be reduced accordingly. Similarly, if on any distribution date, there are insufficient funds available to make certain required payments on the portion of the collateral interest represented by the collateral senior invested amount, certain funds that would otherwise be used to make required collateral interest payments will be used to make those required payments on the portion of the collateral interest represented by the collateral senior invested amount, and the collateral invested amount will be reduced accordingly. The collateral invested amount and the Class B invested amount must be reduced to zero before the Class A invested amount will suffer any loss of principal. The collateral invested amount must be reduced to zero before the Class B invested amount will suffer any loss of principal.

Credit enhancement for the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates is for the benefit of Series 201[●]-[●] only and you are not entitled to the benefits of any credit enhancement available to other series.

See “Series Provisions — Reallocation of Cash Flows,” “—Application of Collections” and “— Defaulted Receivables; Investor Charge-Offs” in this prospectus for a description of the events which may lead to a reduction of the Class A invested amount, the Class B invested amount and the collateral invested amount.

[Derivative Agreement], [Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement]

[A derivative agreement may serve as an additional source of funds to pay [principal of or interest] on the [Class [●]]/[Series 201[●]-[●]] certificates.]

[A supplemental credit enhancement agreement may serve as an additional source of funds to pay [principal of or interest on] the [Class [●]]/[Series 201[●]-[●]] certificates.]

Other Interests in the Trust

Other Series of Certificates

The trust has issued other series of certificates and expects to issue additional series. The trust may also issue additional Series 201[●]-[●] certificates in the future. You can review a summary of each series previously issued and currently outstanding under the caption “Annex III: Other Series” included at the end of this prospectus. Future series and any additional Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will be issued without prior notice to, or review or consent by, you or any other certificateholder. We cannot assure you that the terms of any future series or issuance of additional Series 201[●]-[●] certificates might not have an impact on the timing or amount of payments received by a certificateholder.

The Transferors’ Interest

The interest in the trust not represented by your series or by any other series is the transferors’ interest, which is held by the transferors. The transferors’ interest may be held either in certificated form represented by the transferor certificates or in uncertificated form. Any reference in this prospectus to the transferor certificates means the transferors’ interest as held in either certificated or uncertificated form. The transferors’ interest does not provide credit enhancement for your series or any other series.

Trust Assets

The Trust Portfolio

The primary assets of the trust are receivables in designated consumer American Express^® credit card accounts and Pay Over Time revolving credit features associated with charge card accounts and, in the future, may include other charge or credit accounts or features or products.* The receivables consist of principal receivables and finance charge receivables.

The following information is as of [●] [●], 201[●]:

• Total receivables in the trust:

$[●]

• Principal receivables in the trust:

$[●]

* American Express is a federally registered servicemark of American Express Company and its affiliates.

7

• Finance charge receivables in the trust:

$[●]

• Accounts designated to the trust:

[●]

• Account billing addresses: generally all 50 states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico

Additional information regarding the receivables in the trust portfolio is provided in Annex I to this prospectus, which forms an integral part of this prospectus.

See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses” and “The Accounts” in this prospectus.

Certificateholders will not be notified of any changes to the composition of the assets in the trust due to additions or removals of receivables. However, monthly reports containing certain information relating to the certificates and the collateral securing the certificates will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These reports will not be sent to certificateholders. See “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus for information as to how these reports may be accessed.

Subject only to the eligibility criteria established in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement, the account owners have the discretion to select the accounts to be designated to the trust. All receivables in the accounts when designated to the trust were transferred to the trust and all new receivables generated in those accounts have been and will be transferred automatically to the trust.

The receivables transferred to the trust are the trust’s primary assets. The total amount of receivables in the trust fluctuates daily as new receivables are generated and payments are received on existing receivables.

The trust’s assets also include or may include:

• funds collected on the receivables;

• monies and investments in the trust’s bank accounts;

• the right to receive certain issuer rate fees attributed to the receivables;

• recoveries (net of collection expenses) and proceeds of credit insurance policies relating to the receivables; and

• credit enhancement that varies from one series to another and, within a series, may vary from one class to another.

Additional assets may be transferred to the trust as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” in this prospectus. The transferors may add additional receivables to the trust at any time without limitation, provided that the receivables are eligible receivables, the transferors reasonably believe that the addition will not result in an adverse effect, and the rating agencies confirm the ratings on the outstanding certificates. Under certain limited circumstances, the transferors may be obligated to add additional receivables to the trust if required to maintain the required minimum principal balance.

The transferors may also remove receivables that previously were transferred to the trust as described in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Removal of Accounts” in this prospectus, provided that

• the transferors reasonably believe that the removal will not result in an adverse effect,

• the rating agencies confirm the ratings on the outstanding certificates,

8

• the receivables subject to removal are selected randomly, and

• only one removal occurs each month.

If a transferor breaches certain representations and warranties relating to the eligibility of receivables included in the trust, however, that transferor may be required to remove immediately those receivables from the trust. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus.

Finally, on the date when any receivable in an account is charged off as uncollectible, the trust automatically transfers those receivables back to the applicable transferor.

Asset Representations Review

Under certain circumstances, investors in the certificates may direct an asset representations reviewer to perform a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent (i.e., 60 days past the date a payment amount is first due under the applicable card member agreement) and the accounts relating to such receivables for compliance with certain representations and warranties on the receivables and the accounts. [        ] has been engaged to serve as the asset representations reviewer with respect to the receivables in the Trust Portfolio.

[The asset representations reviewer will be paid an annual fee of $[●] by the transferors, or the sponsors on behalf of the transferors, in accordance with the asset representations review agreement[, subject to an additional step-up.] However, the annual fee does not include the fees and expenses payable to the asset representations reviewer in connection with an asset representations review. Under the asset representations review agreement, the asset representations reviewer will be entitled to receive a fee in connection with an asset representations review of [$[●] per hour][insert any other fee methodology agreed upon by the asset representations reviewer and the transferors][, subject to a cap of $[●] per review], which fee will be paid by the transferors, or the sponsors at the direction of the transferors.

See “Asset Representations Review” in this prospectus.

Collections by the Servicer

The servicer will collect payments on the receivables, will deposit (or cause to be deposited) those collections in the collection account and will keep track of those collections that are finance charge receivables and those that are principal receivables.

Allocations to you and your Series

The following discussion is a simplified description of certain allocation provisions and is qualified by the full descriptions of these provisions in this prospectus.

Each month, the servicer will allocate collections of finance charge receivables, collections of principal receivables and the amount of principal receivables that are not collected and are written off as uncollectible, called the defaulted amount. Set forth below, is a brief description of how these finance charge collections, principal collections and the defaulted amount are allocated to you and your series, addressed in four steps. Allocations of finance charge collections involve each of Steps 1, 2, 3 and 4. However, allocations of principal collections and the defaulted amount involve only Steps 1, 2 and 4.

You are entitled to receive payments of interest and principal based upon allocations to your series. The invested amount, which is the primary basis for allocations to your series, is the sum of:

(a) the Class A invested amount,

(b) the Class B invested amount and

(c) the collateral invested amount.

The Class A invested amount, the Class B invested amount and the collateral invested amount will initially equal the outstanding principal amount of the Class A certificates, the Class B certificates and the collateral interest. The invested amount of a series or class will decline, however, as a result of principal payments and may decline if the defaulted amount is not covered by collections of finance charges allocated to your series or for other reasons. If the invested amount of your series or class declines, amounts allocated and available for payment to you will be reduced.

For a description of the events which may lead to these reductions, see “Series Provisions — Reallocation of Cash Flows” in this prospectus.

Step 1: Allocations Among Series

Finance Charge Collections, Principal Collections and the Defaulted Amount: Each month, the servicer will allocate finance charge collections, principal collections and the defaulted amount among:

• your series, based on the size of its invested amount at that time (which is initially $[●], but may be reduced or increased); and

• other outstanding series, based on the sizes of their respective invested amounts at that time.

Step 2: Allocations Within Your Series

Finance Charge Collections, Principal Collections and the Defaulted Amount: Finance charge collections, principal collections and the defaulted amount that are allocated to your series in Step 1 will then be further allocated, based on varying percentages, between:

• your series, based on the size of its invested amount; and

• the holders of the transferor certificates, which will receive the remainder of these finance charge collections, principal collections and the defaulted amount.

Step 3: Reallocations Among Series

Finance Charge Collections: Collections of finance charge receivables allocated to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the collateral interest in Step 2 will then be combined with the collections of finance charge receivables allocated to any other series in group [I/II]. Group [I/II] is a group of series which share finance charge collections pro rata, based upon the relative size of the required payments to each series in group [I/II] as compared to the total required payments of all series in group [I/II]. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Reallocations Among Different Series Within a Reallocation Group” in this prospectus.

Upon issuance, Series 201[●]-[●] will be the [●] outstanding series issued by the trust in group [I/II]. Any issuance of a new series in group [I/II], or any increase in the invested amount of any outstanding series in group [I/II] due to issuance of additional certificates of that series, may reduce or increase the amount of finance charge collections allocated to your series.

Step 4: Final Allocations Among Class A, Class B and the Collateral Interest

Finance Charge Collections, Principal Collections and the Defaulted Amount: The finance charge collections reallocated in Step 3, together with the principal collections and the defaulted amount allocated in Step 2, will then be further allocated, based on varying percentages, among:

• the Class A certificates, based on the Class A invested amount (which is initially $[●], but may be reduced or increased);

• the Class B certificates, based on the Class B invested amount (which is initially $[●], but may be reduced or increased); and

• the collateral interest, based on the collateral invested amount (which is initially $[●], but may be reduced or increased).

See “Series Provisions — Allocation Percentages” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Reallocations Among Different Series Within a Reallocation Group” in this prospectus.

Application of Collections

Finance Charge Collections and Excess Spread

Each month, collections of finance charge receivables allocated to the Class A certificates, the Class B certificates and the collateral interest, and the excess spread that may remain, will generally be applied as follows:

See “Series Provisions — Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” in this prospectus.

11

Principal Collections

Each month, your series’ share of principal collections will generally be applied as follows:

See “Maturity Considerations,” “Series Provisions — Principal Payments” and “— Application of Collections” in this prospectus.

12

Fees and Expenses Payable from Collections

• Fees and expenses payable from collections of finance charge receivables: 2.0% of invested amount paid to the servicer (as described below).

• Fees and expenses payable from collections of principal receivables: servicing fee shortfall

Servicing Fee

The servicer is entitled to receive a monthly servicing fee as compensation for its servicing activities and as reimbursement for any expenses incurred by it as servicer. For each month, the servicing fee will equal one-twelfth of the product of:

• 2.0% per year; and

• the invested amount for the related monthly period.

The servicing fee will be allocated among the transferors’ interest and the certificateholders.

Revolving Period

The revolving period begins on the closing date and ends on the day before the commencement of the controlled accumulation period or, if earlier, the early amortization period. During the revolving period, no principal payments will be made to or for the benefit of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders or the holder of the collateral interest. Unless a pay-out event has occurred, the controlled accumulation period is scheduled to begin at the close of business on the last day of the [●] 201[●] monthly period, but may be delayed as described herein.

[Prefunding Period

Provide the prefunding amount in the prefunding account, the date by which the invested amount is expected to equal the aggregate principal amount of the certificates and any other information required by Item 1103(a)(5) of Regulation AB.]

Pay-Out Events

Certain adverse events called pay-out events might lead to the end of the revolving period or controlled accumulation period and the start of an early amortization period. A pay-out event may affect more than one series.

The pay-out events for your series are described in “Series Provisions — Pay-Out Events” in this prospectus. In addition, see “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Transferor Insolvency” in this prospectus for a discussion of the consequences of an insolvency or receivership of any transferor.

Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections

Collections of finance charge receivables allocated to each series in group [I/II] will be combined and will be available for certain required payments to all series in group [I/II]. These amounts will be reallocated pro rata, based on the size of the required payment for each of the series in group [I/II] as compared with the total required payments for all of the series in group [I/II]. Any issuance of a new series in a reallocation group, or any increase in the invested amount of any outstanding series in a reallocation group due to an issuance of additional certificates of that series, may reduce or increase the amount of finance charge collections allocated to any other series of certificates in that group.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Reallocations Among Different Series Within a Reallocation Group” and “Risk Factors — Issuances of additional series by the trust may adversely affect your certificates” in this prospectus.

13

Shared Principal Collections

Your series will be included in a group of series designated as “principal sharing series.” To the extent that collections of principal receivables allocated to your series are not needed to make payments or deposits to a trust account for the benefit of your series, these collections will be applied to cover principal payments for other principal sharing series, if any. Any reallocation for this purpose will not reduce the invested amount for your series. In addition, you may receive the benefits of collections of principal receivables and certain other amounts allocated to other principal sharing series. However, there can be no assurance that the trust will issue additional principal sharing series designated to share collections of principal receivables with your series.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series” in this prospectus.

Excess Finance Charge Collections

Your series will be included in a group of series designated as “excess allocation series.” To the extent that collections of finance charge receivables allocable to your series exceed the amount necessary to make required payments for your series payable from collections of finance charge receivables, such excess collections may be applied to cover shortfalls of collections of finance charge receivables allocable to other excess allocation series. In addition, you may receive the benefits of collections of finance charge receivables allocated to other excess allocation series designated to share collections of finance charge receivables with your series. However, there can be no assurance that the trust will issue additional excess allocation series designated to share collections of finance charge receivables with your series.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections Among Excess Allocation Series” in this prospectus.

Optional Repurchase

So long as a transferor is the servicer or an affiliate of the servicer, that transferor will have the option to repurchase your Series 201[●]-[●] certificates when the invested amount for your series has been reduced to 5% or less of the initial invested amount for your series. See “Series Provisions — Optional Repurchase” in this prospectus.

Series Termination

If on the distribution date which is two months prior to the Series 201[●]-[●] termination date, the invested amount exceeds zero, the servicer will, within the 40-day period beginning on such date, solicit bids for the sale of interests in the principal receivables or certain principal receivables, together in each case with the related finance charge receivables, in an amount equal to the invested amount at the close of business on the last day of the monthly period preceding the Series 201[●]-[●] termination date. The servicer will sell such receivables on the Series 201[●]-[●] termination date to the bidder who provided the highest cash purchase offer and will deposit the proceeds of such sale in the collection account for allocation to Series 201[●]-[●]. See “Series Provisions — Series Termination” in this prospectus.

Registration

The Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will be in book-entry form and will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of The Depository Trust Company. Except in limited circumstances, you will not receive a definitive certificate representing your interest. See “Description of the Certificates — Definitive Certificates” in this prospectus.

You may elect to hold your Series 201[●]-[●] certificates through DTC, in the United States, or Clearstream Banking or the Euroclear System in Europe. See “Description of the Certificates — Book-Entry Registration” in this prospectus.

14

Tax Status

Subject to important considerations described under “Tax Matters” in this prospectus, Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, as special tax counsel to the transferors, is of the opinion that under existing law your certificates will be characterized as debt for federal income tax purposes. By your acceptance of a certificate, you will agree to treat your certificates as debt for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes. See “Tax Matters” in this prospectus for additional information concerning the application of federal income tax laws.

ERISA Considerations

Subject to important considerations described under “ERISA Considerations” in this prospectus, the Class A certificates are eligible for purchase by persons investing assets of employee benefit plans or individual retirement accounts.

For reasons discussed under “ERISA Considerations” in this prospectus, the Class B certificates are not eligible for purchase by persons investing assets of employee benefit plans or individual retirement accounts, other than insurance companies investing assets solely of their general accounts.

15

Risk Factors

You should consider the following factors before you decide whether or not to purchase the certificates.

There is no public market for the certificates. As a result, you may be unable to sell your certificates or the price of the certificates may suffer.

The underwriters may assist in resales of the certificates but they are not required to do so. A secondary market for any certificates may not develop. If a secondary market does develop, it might not continue or it might not be sufficiently liquid to allow you to resell any of your certificates.

In addition, some certificates have a more limited trading market and experience more price volatility. There may be a limited number of buyers when you decide to sell those certificates. This may affect the price you receive for the certificates or your ability to sell the certificates.

Moreover, events in the financial markets, including increased illiquidity, de-valuation of various assets in secondary markets and the lowering of ratings on certain asset-backed securities, may adversely affect the liquidity and/or reduce the market price of your certificates.

You should not purchase certificates unless you understand and know you can bear these investment risks and you should consider that general market conditions may adversely affect the liquidity, marketability and overall market value of your certificates.

Some interests could have priority over the trustee’s interest in the receivables, which could cause delayed or reduced payments to you.

Representations and warranties are made that the trustee has a perfected interest in the receivables. If any of these representations and warranties were found not to be true, however, payments to you could be delayed or reduced.

In addition, the transaction documents permit certain tax liens to have priority over the trustee’s perfected interest in the receivables. If any of these tax liens were to arise, or if other interests in the receivables were found to have priority over those of the trustee, you could suffer a loss on your investment.

Furthermore, if a conservator or receiver for either bank, the transferors or a bankruptcy trustee for TRS or for either transferor were to argue that any of its administrative expenses relate to the receivables or the transaction documents, those expenses could be paid from collections on the receivables before the trustee receives any payments, which could result in losses on your investment.

The trustee may not have a perfected interest in collections commingled by the servicer or any subservicer with its own funds, which could cause delayed or reduced payments to you.

The servicer is obligated to deposit collections into the collection account no later than the second business day after the date of processing for those collections. In the event that certain conditions are met, however, the servicer is permitted to hold all collections received during a monthly period and to make only a single deposit of those collections on the following distribution date. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Deposits in Collection Account.”

All collections that the servicer is permitted to hold are commingled with its other funds or the funds of a subservicer and used for its own benefit. The trustee may not have a perfected interest in these amounts, and thus payments to you could be delayed or reduced if the servicer or any subservicer were to become bankrupt, enter conservatorship or receivership, were to become insolvent, or were to fail to perform its obligations under the transaction documents.

16

The conservatorship, receivership, bankruptcy, or insolvency of Centurion, FSB, TRS, a transferor, the trust, or any of their affiliates could result in accelerated, delayed, or reduced payments to you.

Centurion is a Utah industrial loan bank and FSB is a federal savings bank, and the deposits of each bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). If certain events occur involving either bank’s financial condition or the propriety of its actions, the FDIC could be appointed as conservator or receiver for that bank and, in that capacity, could exercise broad powers over that bank and its assets, obligations, and operations.

Prior to April 16, 2004, Centurion transferred receivables directly to the trustee. Since April 16, 2004, receivables have been transferred by Centurion to RFC III, and by RFC III to the trustee, and receivables have been transferred by FSB to RFC IV, and by RFC IV to the trustee.

Each transfer of receivables by Centurion is treated by Centurion as a sale, and each transfer of receivables by FSB is treated by FSB as a sale. The FDIC or other interested parties, however, could take the position that any of these transfers constitutes only the grant of a security interest under applicable law, that the applicable bank continues to own receivables, and that the FDIC as conservator or receiver for either bank should control and administer the receivables transferred by that bank.

Under the current version of the FDIC’s regulation on securitization transactions, the FDIC has surrendered its rights to reclaim, recover, or recharacterize a depository institution’s transfer of financial assets (such as the receivables) with respect to obligations of a revolving trust or a master trust if:

• one or more obligations were issued by the trust as of September 27, 2010;

• the transfer satisfied specified conditions for sale accounting treatment under generally accepted accounting principles in effect for reporting periods before November 15, 2009;

• the transfer involved a securitization of the financial assets;

• the depository institution received adequate consideration for the transfer; and

• the financial assets were not transferred fraudulently, in contemplation of the depository institution’s insolvency, or with the intent to hinder, delay, or defraud the depository institution or its creditors.

Each transfer of receivables by Centurion and FSB has been intended to satisfy all of these conditions.

If any of these conditions were found not to have been met, then a statutory injunction automatically preventing the trustee and the certificateholders from exercising their rights, remedies, and interests for up to 90 days would apply. The delay caused by this injunction could result in losses to you.

In addition, the FDIC as conservator or receiver for Centurion or FSB could seek to reclaim, recover, or recharacterize the transfer of the receivables by Centurion or FSB. If the FDIC were successful, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, would limit any damages to “actual direct compensatory damages” determined as of the date that the FDIC was appointed as conservator or receiver for Centurion or FSB. The FDIC may not be subject to an express time limit in deciding whether to take these actions, and a delay by the FDIC in making a decision could result in losses on your investment. If the FDIC were successful in any of these actions, moreover, you may not be entitled under applicable law to the full amount of your damages.

Even if the FDIC did not reclaim, recover, or recharacterize the transfer of the receivables by Centurion or FSB, payments to you could be delayed or reduced if either bank entered conservatorship or receivership.

For instance, the FDIC may argue that the statutory injunction nevertheless applies to automatically prevent the trustee and the certificateholders from exercising their rights, remedies, and interests for up to 90 days. The FDIC also may be able to obtain a stay of any action to enforce the transaction documents or the certificates beyond the

17

90-day statutory period. The FDIC also may require that its claims process be followed before payments on the receivables are released. The delay caused by any of these actions could result in losses to you.

The FDIC, moreover, may have the power to choose whether or not the terms of the transaction documents will continue to apply. Thus, regardless of what the transaction documents provide, the FDIC could:

• prevent or limit the commencement of an early amortization period or a rapid accumulation period, or instead do the opposite and require those to commence;

• prevent or limit the early liquidation of the receivables and the termination of the trust, or instead do the opposite and require those to occur; or

• prevent or limit the continued transfer of receivables, or instead do the opposite and require those to continue.

If any of these events were to occur, payments to you could be delayed or reduced. You also may suffer a loss if the FDIC were to argue that any term of the transaction documents violates applicable regulatory requirements.

RFC III is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Centurion. RFC IV is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FSB. Certain banking laws and regulations may apply not only to Centurion and FSB but to their subsidiaries as well. If RFC III or RFC IV were found to have violated any of these laws or regulations, you could suffer a loss on your investment.

Arguments also may be made that the FDIC’s rights and powers extend to the servicer, RFC III, RFC IV, and the trust and that, as a consequence, the FDIC could repudiate or otherwise directly affect the rights of certificateholders under the transaction documents. If the FDIC were to take this position, losses to you could result.

In addition, no assurance can be given that the FDIC would not attempt to exercise control over the receivables or the other assets of RFC III, RFC IV, or the trust on an interim or a permanent basis. If this were to occur, payments to you could be delayed or reduced.

RFC III, RFC IV, and the trust have been established so as to minimize the risk that any of them would become insolvent or enter bankruptcy. Nevertheless, each of them may be eligible to file for bankruptcy, and no assurance can be given that the risk of insolvency or bankruptcy has been eliminated. If RFC III, RFC IV, or the trust were to become insolvent or were to enter bankruptcy, or a receiver or conservator were appointed for RFC III, RFC IV, or the trust, you could suffer a loss on your investment. Risks also exist that, if RFC III, RFC IV, or the trust were to enter bankruptcy, or a receivership, conservatorship or similar insolvency proceeding were to be commenced against any of their assets, any of the others and their assets (including the receivables) would be treated as part of the bankruptcy estate.

If TRS or any of its affiliates were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, the court could exercise control over the receivables or the other assets of RFC III, RFC IV, or the trust on an interim or a permanent basis. If this were to occur, payments to you could be delayed or reduced. The court, moreover, may have the power to choose whether or not the terms of the transaction documents will continue to apply. Thus, regardless of what the transaction documents provide, the court could:

• authorize TRS to stop servicing the receivables or to stop providing administrative services for RFC III or RFC IV;

• prevent the appointment of a successor servicer for the trust or the appointment of a successor administrator for RFC III or RFC IV;

• alter the terms on which TRS continues to service the receivables or to provide administrative services for RFC III or RFC IV, including the amount of fees paid to TRS;

18

• order that RFC III, and RFC IV and its assets (including the receivables) be substantively consolidated with the bankruptcy estate of TRS or any of its affiliates;

• order that the receivables are necessary for TRS or any of its affiliates to reorganize;

• impose a temporary or preliminary stay with respect to the receivables (or collections thereon) or exercise remedies under the transaction documents in order to afford itself time to ascertain the facts and apprise itself of the law;

• prevent or limit the commencement of an early amortization period or a rapid accumulation period, or instead do the opposite and require those to commence;

• prevent or limit the early liquidation of the receivables and the termination of the trust, or instead do the opposite and require those to occur; or

• prevent or limit the continued transfer of receivables, or instead do the opposite and require those to continue.

If any of these events were to occur, payments to you could be delayed or reduced. You also may suffer a loss if the FDIC were to argue that any term of the transaction documents violates applicable regulatory requirements.

In addition, you could suffer a loss on your investment if an orderly liquidation of TRS, the banks, or certain of its subsidiaries, the issuing entity, the transferors or any affiliate affected by these transactions were commenced under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). In such a liquidation, the FDIC would be appointed as receiver and could exercise broad powers similar to those available to it as receiver under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Although some of the protections afforded to creditors under the Bankruptcy Code are included in the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC would have wide discretion and would be subject to only limited judicial review, and the proceedings, standards, powers of the receiver and many other substantive provisions of the orderly liquidation authority differ from those of the Bankruptcy Code in several respects. In addition, creditors generally would not be entitled to recover more than the amount that they would have received in a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. Because the legislation remains subject to clarification through FDIC regulations and has yet to be applied by the FDIC in any receivership, it is unclear exactly what impact these provisions will have on any particular company, including the trust, TRS, the transferors or their affiliates. Furthermore, there is uncertainty about which companies will be subject to the orderly liquidation authority rather than the Bankruptcy Code. For a company to become subject to the orderly liquidation authority, the Secretary of the Treasury (in consultation with the President of the United States) must determine, among other things, that the company is in default or in danger of default, the failure of such company and its resolution under the Bankruptcy Code would have serious adverse effects on financial stability in the United States, no viable private sector alternative is available to prevent the default of the company and an orderly liquidation authority proceeding would mitigate these adverse effects.

Regardless of any decision made by the FDIC or ruling made by a court, moreover, the mere fact that Centurion, FSB, TRS, RFC III, RFC IV, the trust, or any of their affiliates has become insolvent or entered conservatorship, receivership, or bankruptcy could have an adverse effect on the value of the receivables and on the liquidity and value of the certificates.

If a condition required under the FDIC’s Securitization Rule described above were not met (including as a result of future amendments to the Securitization Rule), the banks have taken and will take the necessary actions to ensure that the trustee has a perfected interest in the receivables. Regardless of this perfected interest, if a conservator, a receiver, or a bankruptcy trustee were appointed for the banks, TRS, the transferors or the trust, and if the administrative expenses of the conservator, the receiver, or the bankruptcy trustee were found to relate to the receivables or the transaction documents, those expenses could be paid from collections on the receivables before the trustee receives any payments, which could result in losses on your investment. See “— Some interests could have priority over the trustee’s interest in the receivables, which could cause delayed or reduced payments to you” above.

19

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA), and policy statements issued by the FDIC provide that the FDIC should respect a security interest granted by a bank where the security interest (a) is validly perfected before the bank’s insolvency and (b) was not taken in contemplation of the bank’s insolvency or with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud the bank or its creditors.

FDIC staff positions taken prior to the passage of FIRREA do not suggest that the FDIC would interrupt the timely transfer to the trust of payments collected on the receivables; however, these positions were taken prior to the adoption of, and the amendments to, the FDIC’s Securitization Rule, and the FDIC has not expressed its position since that time. Furthermore, the statutory injunction described above could apply to automatically prevent the trustee and the certificateholders from exercising their rights, remedies, and interests for up to 90 days. The FDIC also may be able to obtain a stay of any action to enforce the transaction documents or the certificates beyond the 90-day statutory period.

If the FDIC were to assert a different position, your payments of outstanding principal and interest could be delayed and possibly reduced. For example, in addition to the powers of the FDIC described above, under the FDIA, the FDIC could:

• require the trustee to go through an administrative claims procedure to establish its right to those payments;

• request a stay of proceedings or enforcement actions against the banks or their assets; or

• reject the banks’ sales contracts and limit the trust’s or the transferors’ resulting claim to “actual direct compensatory damages.”

Regulatory action could result in losses or delay in payments.

Centurion is regulated, supervised and regularly examined by the Utah Department of Financial Institutions (UDFI) and the FDIC. FSB is regulated, supervised and regularly examined by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). TRS is a bank holding company and, as such, is regulated, supervised and regularly examined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Beginning in July 2011, TRS, the banks and other credit card issuers became subject to supervision, examination and enforcement by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) with respect to the marketing and sale of consumer financial products and compliance with certain federal consumer financial laws, including, among others, the Consumer Financial Protection Act and the Truth in Lending Act. See “— Financial regulatory reforms could adversely impact the trust or your certificates, including by impeding origination or collection efforts, changing account holder use patterns, or reducing collections.” These regulatory authorities, as well as others, have broad powers of enforcement with respect to the banks, TRS and their affiliates.

If any regulatory authority were to conclude that an obligation under the transaction documents were an unsafe or unsound practice or violated any law, regulation, written condition, or agreement applicable to a bank or its affiliates, that authority may have the power to order that bank or the related affiliate to rescind the transaction document, to refuse to perform the obligation, to amend the terms of the obligation, to sell or transfer assets, or to take any other action determined by that authority to be appropriate. In addition, that bank or the related affiliate probably would not be liable to you for contractual damages for complying with such an order, and you would be unlikely to have any recourse against the regulatory authority. Therefore, if such an order were issued, payments to you could be delayed or reduced.

In one case, the OCC issued a cease and desist order against a national banking association that was found to have been servicing credit card receivables on terms that were inconsistent with safe and sound banking practices. That order required the financial institution to cease performing its duties as servicer within approximately 120 days, to immediately withhold and segregate funds from collections for payment of its servicing fee (notwithstanding the priority of payments in the securitization documents and the perfected security interest of the relevant trust in those funds), and to increase its servicing fee percentage above that which was specified in the securitization documents.

20

The banks have no reason to believe that their servicing arrangements are contrary to safe and sound banking practices or otherwise violate any law, regulation, written condition, or agreement applicable to the banks or their affiliates. If a regulatory authority were to conclude otherwise, however, you could suffer a loss on your investment.

Financial regulatory reforms could adversely impact the trust or your certificates, including by impeding origination or collection efforts, changing account holder use patterns, or reducing collections.

The Dodd-Frank Act, which was enacted in July 2010, is comprehensive in scope and contains a wide array of provisions intended to govern the practices and oversight of financial institutions and other participants in the financial markets. The Dodd-Frank Act has resulted in increased scrutiny and oversight of consumer financial services and products, primarily through the establishment of the CFPB. The CFPB has broad rulemaking and enforcement authority over providers of credit, savings and payment services and products and authority to prevent “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts or practices. The CFPB has the authority to write regulations under federal consumer financial protection laws, and to enforce those laws against and examine for compliance large financial institutions like the American Express, TRS, Centurion and FSB. It is also authorized to collect fines and require consumer restitution in the event of violations, engage in consumer financial education, track consumer complaints, request data and promote the availability of financial services to underserved consumers and communities. The ultimate impact of this heightened scrutiny is uncertain, but it has resulted in, and could continue to result in, changes to pricing, practices, products and procedures. It could also result in increased costs related to regulatory oversight, supervision and examination, additional remediation efforts and possible penalties. See “Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables — Consumer Protection Laws.”

On August 27, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted final rules that significantly modify the existing regulations that govern disclosure requirements, offering processes and periodic reporting for asset-backed securities, including those offered under the banks’ credit card securitization program. The new rules will change the disclosure requirements and offering process for credit card securitizations and the eligibility criteria for shelf registration statements for securitizations that are initially offered and sold on or after November 23, 2015. Among other changes, the final rules will require a certification from the chief executive officer of the depositor concerning the disclosure contained in the prospectus and the structure of the securitization at the time of each offering from a shelf registration statement, and appointment of an asset representations reviewer to review assets that are sixty (60) or more days delinquent for compliance with related representations and warranties in the related underlying transaction agreements when delinquency rates rise above a certain level and when a requisite percentage of investors vote to conduct such a review. The adopted rules were originally proposed on April 7, 2010 and re-proposed on July 26, 2011. A number of rules proposed by the SEC in 2010 and 2011, such as requiring group-level data for the underlying assets in credit card securitizations, were not adopted in the final rulemaking but may be implemented by the SEC in the future. We are still assessing the impact of the new rules, and the possibility of continued rulemaking, on the banks’ credit card securitization program.

On October 21 and 22, 2014, the Federal Reserve, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the FDIC, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, the OCC, and the SEC approved a final risk retention rule that generally mandates a minimum five percent risk retention requirement for securitizations, including credit card securitizations, that are issued on or after December 24, 2016. [The banks have not yet determined whether their existing forms of risk retention will satisfy the final regulatory requirements or whether structural changes will be necessary. Such risk retention requirements may impact the banks’ ability or desire to issue asset-backed securities in the future.] [See “Transaction Parties — Credit Risk Retention” in this prospectus for information on how the banks comply with these risk retention requirements.]

Many of the provisions under the Dodd-Frank Act have begun to be phased in or will be phased in over the next several months or years and will be subject both to further rulemaking and the discretion of applicable regulatory bodies; the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act will depend significantly upon the content and implementation of the rules and regulations issued on its mandate. It is not yet clear how the Dodd-Frank Act and its associated rules and regulations will impact the asset-backed securities market and credit card lending generally and the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates and their respective businesses and assets specifically. No assurance can be given that the new standards will not have an adverse impact on the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act and this new regulatory regime, it may be more difficult for Centurion, FSB or their affiliates to originate additional accounts or for the servicer to collect payments on the receivables, and finance charges and other fees that they can charge on credit card account balances may be reduced, which could

21

reduce the effective yield of revolving credit card accounts and result in a pay-out event and acceleration of payment or reduced payment on the certificates.

Changes to consumer protection laws, including in the application or interpretation thereof, may impede origination or collection efforts, change account holder use patterns, or reduce collections, any of which may result in acceleration of or reduction in payment on the certificates.

Credit card receivables that do not comply with consumer protection laws may not be valid or enforceable under their terms against the obligors of those credit card receivables.

Federal and state consumer protection laws regulate the creation and enforcement of consumer loans, including credit card receivables. For instance, the federal Truth in Lending Act was amended by the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 (“Credit CARD Act”) to require additional disclosure and impose certain substantive requirements relating to marketing, underwriting, pricing and billing. While Centurion, FSB and their affiliates have made certain changes to their card product terms and practices that are designed to comply with, and mitigate the impact of the changes required by, the Credit CARD Act, there is no assurance that such changes will continue to be successful. The long-term impact of the Credit CARD Act on Centurion, FSB and their affiliates will depend upon a number of factors, including their ability to successfully implement their business strategies, consumer behavior and the actions of American Express’ competitors, which are difficult to predict at this time.

Congress, the states and regulatory agencies also could further regulate the credit card and consumer credit industry in ways that make it more difficult for Centurion, FSB or their affiliates to originate additional accounts or for the servicer to collect payments on the receivables, that reduce the finance charges and other fees that Centurion, FSB or their affiliates as owners of the accounts can charge on credit card account balances, or that cause account holders to decrease their use of credit cards. Further, changes in the regulatory application or judicial interpretation of the laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions, including Centurion, FSB and TRS, could impact the manner in which they conduct their business. The regulatory environment in which financial institutions, including Centurion, FSB and TRS, operate has become increasingly complex and robust, and following the financial crisis of 2008, supervisory efforts to apply relevant laws, regulations and policies have become more intense. Congress and regulators, as well as various consumer advocacy groups, have continued to focus their attention on certain practices of credit card issuers, such as unfair and deceptive business practices, increases in annual percentage rates, changes in the terms of the account, and the types and levels of fees and financial charges charged by card issuers for, among other things, late payments, returned checks, payments by telephone, copies of statements and the like. See “— Financial regulatory reforms could adversely impact the trust or your certificates, including by impeding origination or collection efforts, changing account holder use patterns, or reducing collections.”

Each of the transferors, Centurion and FSB makes representations and warranties about its compliance with legal requirements. Each of the transferors also makes certain representations and warranties in the pooling and servicing agreement about the validity and enforceability of the accounts and the receivables. However, the trustee will not make any examination of the receivables or the records about the receivables for the purpose of establishing the presence or absence of defects, compliance with such representations or warranties, or for any other purpose. However, under certain circumstances, investors in the Series 201[•]-[•] certificates and all other outstanding series issued by the issuing entity will have the right to vote to initiate a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent and the accounts relating to such receivables for compliance with the certain representations and warranties on the receivables and the accounts. If certain representations or warrants, including the representations and warranties regarding compliance with legal requirements, validity and enforceability, are breached, the only remedy is that the transferors or the servicer, as the case may be, must accept reassignment of receivables affected by the breach. See “Description of the Purchase Agreements — Representations and Warranties,” “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties” and “— Asset Representations Review.”

As a result of the Credit CARD Act, other consumer protection laws and regulations, including rules adopted in December 2008 by the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of Thrift Supervision and the National Credit Union Administration, any future consumer protection laws or regulations, and changes in the regulatory application or judicial interpretation of the foregoing, it may be more difficult for Centurion, FSB or their affiliates to originate

22

additional accounts or for the servicer to collect payments on the receivables, and the finance charges and other fees that Centurion, FSB or their affiliates can charge on credit card account balances may be reduced. Furthermore, account holders may choose to use credit cards less as a result of these consumer protection laws. Each of these results, independently or collectively, may reduce the effective yield of revolving credit card accounts and could result in a pay-out event and an acceleration of payment or reduced payment on the certificates. See “Description of the Certificates — Pay-Out Events and Reinvestment Events” and “Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables — Consumer Protection Laws.”

Changes to federal or state bankruptcy or debtor laws may impede collection efforts or alter timing and amount of collections, which may result in acceleration or reduction in payment of your certificates.

If an account holder sought protection under federal or state bankruptcy or debtor relief laws, a court could reduce or discharge completely the account holder’s obligations to repay amounts due on its revolving credit card account. As a result, the related credit card receivables arising in that credit card account would be written off as uncollectible. You could suffer a loss if no funds were available from credit enhancement or other sources and collections of finance charge receivables allocated to the certificates to cover the applicable defaulted amount. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Defaulted Receivables; Rebates and Fraudulent Charges” in this prospectus.

Regulation of payment card networks could adversely impact the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates.

The Dodd-Frank Act prohibits payment card networks from restricting merchants from offering discounts or incentives to encourage customers to pay with particular forms of payment such as cash, check, credit or debit cards, so long as offers to encourage credit or debit card do not discriminate on the basis of the network or issuer. Further, to the extent required by federal law or applicable state law, the discount or incentive must be offered to all prospective buyers and must be clearly and conspicuously disclosed. The Dodd-Frank Act also permits U.S. merchants to establish minimum purchase amounts of no more than $10 for credit card purchases, provided that the merchants do not discriminate between networks or issuers. Federal government agencies and institutions of higher learning are also permitted to establish maximum amounts for credit card purchases provided they do not discriminate between networks or issuers. As a result of these new laws, customers may be incentivized by merchants to move away from the use of charge and credit card products to other forms of payment, such as debit cards. In addition, a number of lawsuits have been filed by merchants seeking to overturn some of the existing state laws in the United States banning credit card surcharges.

The impact of the evolving regulatory environment on American Express’ business and operations, including in connection with the matters discussed above, depends up on a number of factors including final implementing regulations, guidance and interpretations of regulatory agencies, supervisory actions and priorities, the actions of American Express’ competitors and other marketplace participants, and the behavior of consumers. The evolving regulatory environment may increase compliance costs or result in a reduction of transactions processed on the American Express networks or merchant discount revenues from such transactions, which could materially and adversely impact the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates, including the ability to generate new receivables, the level of receivables, including finance charge receivables, held in the trust or the amount of certificates issued in the future.

Payment patterns of account holders may not be consistent over time and variations in these payment patterns may result in reduced payment of principal, or receipt of payment of principal earlier or later than expected.

The receivables may be paid at any time. We cannot assure you that the creation of additional receivables in the accounts will occur or that any particular pattern of account holder payments will occur. The timing of the payment of principal on your certificates may be different than expected if the principal payment pattern of the receivables is different than expected or if certain adverse events happen to an account owner, a transferor or the trust. A significant decline in the amount of receivables generated could result in the occurrence of a pay-out event for one or more series. If a pay-out event occurs for your series, you could receive payment of principal sooner than expected. Centurion’s and FSB’s ability to compete in the current industry environment will affect its ability to generate new receivables and might also affect payment patterns on the receivables.

23

In addition to other factors discussed elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, changes in finance charges can alter the monthly payment rates of accountholders. A significant decrease in monthly payment rates could slow the return or accumulation of principal during an amortization or an accumulation period.

One development which affects the level of finance charge collections is the increased convenience use of credit cards. Convenience use means that the customers pay their account balances in full on or prior to the due date. The customer, therefore, avoids all finance charges on his account. This decreases the effective yield on the accounts and could cause an early payment of your certificates.

The account owners may not be able to generate new receivables, or the transferors may not be able to designate new accounts to the trust when required by the pooling and servicing agreement. This could result in an acceleration of or reduction on payments on your certificates.

The trust’s ability to make payments on the certificates will be impaired if sufficient new receivables are not generated by Centurion or FSB, as applicable. We do not guarantee that new receivables will be created, that any receivables will be added to the trust or that receivables will be repaid at a particular time or with a particular pattern.

The pooling and servicing agreement requires that the balance of principal receivables in the trust not fall below a specified level. If the level of principal receivables does fall below the required level, an early payment of your certificates could occur. To maintain the level of principal receivables in the trust, the transferors periodically add receivables through the designation of additional accounts for inclusion in the trust. There is no guarantee that the transferors will have enough receivables to add to the trust. If the transferors are not able to add additional accounts when required, an early payment of your certificates will occur.

See “Maturity Considerations” in this prospectus.

Social, economic and geographic factors can affect credit card payments and may cause a delay in or default on payments.

Changes in credit card use, payment patterns and the rate of defaults by cardholders may result from a variety of social, economic and geographic factors. Social factors include changes in consumer confidence levels and attitudes towards incurring debt, the public’s perception of the use of credit cards and changing attitudes about incurring debt and the stigma of personal bankruptcy. Economic factors include the rates of inflation, the unemployment rates and the relative interest rates offered for various types of loans. Moreover, adverse changes in economic conditions in states where cardholders are located, terrorist acts against the United States or other nations, the commencement of hostilities between the United States and a foreign nation or nations or natural disasters could have a direct impact on the timing and amount of payments on your certificates. In particular, economic conditions or other factors affecting states with high concentrations of cardholders could adversely impact the delinquency or credit loss experience of the Trust Portfolio and could result in delays in payments or losses on the certificates. See “The Receivables—Composition by Geographic Distribution” in this prospectus.

Uncertain expectations for a global economic recovery have had, and may continue to have, an adverse effect on American Express and its affiliates, in part because American Express is very dependent upon consumer and business behavior. A prolonged period of slow economic growth or deterioration in economic conditions could change customer behaviors, including spending on American Express’ cards and the ability and willingness of Card Members to pay amounts owed to American Express. Factors such as consumer spending, business investment, government spending, interest rates, surcharges merchants may apply for the use of a credit card, the volatility and strength of the capital markets and inflation all affect the business and economic environment and could result in declines in credit and charge card usage and result in adverse changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates.

We cannot predict what further effect the factors and circumstances discussed above, should they continue, will have on repayment patterns or card use and, consequently, the timing and amount of payments on your series. Any

24

reductions in the amount or timing of interest or principal payments will reduce the amount available for distribution on the certificates.

Competition in the credit card and payments industry may result in a decline in Centurion’s or FSB’s ability to generate new receivables. This may result in the payment of principal earlier or later than the expected final payment date, or in reduced amounts.

The credit card industry is highly competitive. The American Express-branded proprietary credit card programs operated by American Express and its affiliates encounter substantial and intense competition. As a card issuer, American Express competes in the United States with financial institutions (such as Citibank, Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Capital One Financial) that issue general purpose charge and revolving credit cards, and Discover Financial Services, which issues the Discover Card on the Discover Business Services network. Competition also exists from businesses that issue their own cards or otherwise extend credit to their customers, such as retailers and airline associations, although these cards are generally accepted only at limited locations.

Most financial institutions that offer demand deposit accounts also issue debit cards to permit depositors to access their funds and have replaced ATM cards with such general purpose debit cards bearing either the VISA or MasterCard logo. While initially marketed as replacements for cash and checks, debit cards are also perceived as an alternative to credit and charge cards. Some bank debit cards even offer reward programs and other benefits. As a result, in recent years the purchase volume and number of transactions made with debit cards in the United States has increased significantly and has grown more rapidly than credit and charge card transactions. However, new regulations affecting debit cards may have an adverse impact on their use.

The payments industry includes charge, credit and debit card networks and issuers, paper-based transactions (e.g., cash and checks), bank transfer models (e.g., wire transfers and ACH, as well as evolving alternative payment mechanisms, systems and products, such as aggregators and web-based payment platforms (e.g., PayPal, Square and Amazon), wireless payment technologies, digital currencies, prepaid systems, gift cards and other systems linked to payment cards. As the payments industry continues to evolve, increasing competition comes from non-traditional players, such as online networks, telecom providers, and software-as-a-service providers, who leverage new technologies and customers’ existing charge and credit card accounts and bank relationships to create payment or other fee-based solutions.

The principal competitive factors that affect the card-issuing business are:

• the features and the quality of the services, including rewards programs and digital resources, provided to card members;

• the number, spending characteristics and credit performance of card members;

• the quantity, diversity and quality of the establishments that accept a card;

• the cost of cards and card member services to card members;

• the pricing, payment and other card account terms and conditions;

• the number and quality of other payment cards and other forms of payment, such as debit cards, available to card members;

• the success of targeted marketing and promotional campaigns;

• reputation and brand recognition;

• the ability of issuers to manage credit and interest rate risk throughout the economic cycle;

• the ability of issuers to implement operational and cost efficiencies;

25

• the quality of customer service; and

• the level and effectiveness of advertising investments.

American Express-branded cards are issued on the American Express network. As a network, TRS competes in the payments industry with other card networks, including, among others, VISA, MasterCard, Diners Club International^® and Discover^® (primarily in the United States).

The competitive nature of the payments and credit card industries may result in reduced amounts of finance charge receivables collected and available to pay interest on the certificates. This competition also may affect Centurion’s and FSB’s ability to originate new accounts and generate new receivables. Such events could cause a pay-out event to occur and an early payment of your certificates.

See “Description of the Certificates — Pay-Out Events and Reinvestment Events” in this prospectus.

Changes in or termination of co-branding arrangements may affect the performance of the trust’s receivables and cardholder usage, and, consequently, the timing and amount of payments on your series.

Centurion and FSB enter into co-branding arrangements with certain retail and services companies, some of which, if not extended, are scheduled to expire while the certificates are outstanding. Under co-branding arrangements, participating cardholders earn “points” or other benefits, such as frequent flyer miles, hotel loyalty points and cash back, that may be redeemed with the co-branding partner or other parties. These arrangements are entered into for a fixed period, generally ranging from five to ten years, and will terminate in accordance with their terms, including at the end of the fixed period unless extended or renewed at the option of the parties, or upon early termination as a result of an event of default. The co-branded receivables in the trust have, as a whole, had higher payment rates and lower losses as compared to the general population of Centurion and FSB’s portfolio of credit card receivables. The competition among credit card issuers and networks for attractive co-brand card partnerships is quite intense because these partnerships can generate high-spending loyal cardholders.

Co-branded receivables currently represent approximately [•]% of receivables in the Trust Portfolio. Currently, the two largest co-branding arrangements are with Delta Air Lines and Costco Wholesale Corporation (“Costco”). American Express recently announced that its U.S. co-branding arrangement with Costco will not be renewed and is set to expire on March 31, 2016. Costco co-branded receivables currently represent approximately [•]% of the receivables in the Trust Portfolio.

The volume of receivables generated under a co-branding arrangement could decline significantly, including as a result of a general decline in the business or financial condition of the co-brand partner. Upon expiration or other termination of a co-branding arrangement, including the expiration of the co-branding agreement with Costco, cardholders may change their credit card usage to card programs of issuers other than Centurion or FSB. In addition, some of the co-branding arrangements provide that, upon expiration or termination, the co-brand partner may purchase or designate a third party to purchase the co-branded accounts and the related receivables generated with respect to its program, which may include receivables in the trust. The co-branding agreement with Costco contains such a provision, although the terms of any sale of Costco co-branded accounts and the related receivables will depend on a series of decisions and negotiations among Costco, American Express and Costco’s new co-brand card issuing partner.

Following any of such events, if Centurion or FSB were unable to provide receivables of a similar quality arising under newly designated additional accounts, the performance of the trust’s receivables would suffer. This could result in a reduction in the amount or timing of interest or principal payments on trust receivables and could result in a reduction of the amount available for distribution on the certificates of your series or in early amortization of your series.

A significant disruption or breach in the security of our information technology systems or an increase in fraudulent activity using American Express-branded cards could lead to reputational damage to the brand and could reduce the use and acceptance of American Express-branded cards, which could adversely affect the

26

ability to generate new receivables, the level of the receivables held in the trust or the amount of certificates issued in the future.

American Express, its affiliates and other third parties process, transmit and store Card Member account information. Information security risks for large financial institutions like American Express have generally increased in recent years. American Express has identified four categories of “threat actors” that it currently believes pose the greatest risk, namely cyber criminals, nation state sponsored groups, determined insiders and “hacktivists” or social objectors. These threat actors are using increasingly sophisticated methods to capture various types of information relating to Card Members’ accounts, including membership rewards accounts, to engage in illegal activities such as fraud and identity theft, to disrupt information technology systems, and to expose and exploit potential security and privacy vulnerabilities in corporate systems and websites. As outsourcing and specialization of functions within the payments industry increase, there are more third parties involved in processing transactions using American Express-branded cards and there is a risk the confidentiality, privacy and/or security of data held by third parties, including merchants that accept American Express-branded cards and American Express’ business partners, may be compromised, which could lead to unauthorized transactions on American Express’ cards. American Express develops and maintains systems and processes to detect and prevent data breaches and fraudulent activity, but the development and maintenance of these systems are costly and require ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies and regulatory requirements change and efforts to overcome security measures become more sophisticated. Despite these efforts, the possibility of data breaches, malicious social engineering and fraudulent or other malicious activities cannot be eliminated entirely.

American Express’ information technology systems, including its transaction authorization, clearing and settlement systems, may experience service disruptions or degradation because of technology malfunction, sudden increases in customer transaction volume, natural disasters, accidents, power outages, telecommunications failures, fraud, denial-of-service and other cyber-attacks, terrorism, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, or similar events. For example, American Express and other U.S. financial services providers have been targets of distributed denial-of-service attacks from sophisticated third parties. Service disruptions could prevent access to online services and account information, compromise company or customer data, and impede transaction processing and financial reporting.

If these information technology systems experience a significant disruption or breach or if actual or perceived fraud levels or other illegal activities involving American Express-branded cards were to rise due to a data breach at a business partner, merchant or other market participant, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, it could lead to regulatory intervention (such as mandatory card reissuance), increased litigation and remediation costs, greater concerns of customers relating to the privacy and security of their data, and reputational and financial damage to the American Express brand, which could reduce the use and acceptance of American Express-branded cards, and have an adverse impact on the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates, including the level of receivables held in the trust or the amount of certificates issued in the future. If such disruptions or breaches are not detected immediately, their effect could be compounded. Data breaches and other actual or perceived failures to maintain confidentiality, privacy and/or security of data may also negatively impact the assessment of American Express, TRS and its U.S. banking subsidiaries by banking regulators.

Successful cyber-attack or data breaches at other large financial institutions, large retailers or other market participants, whether or not American Express is impacted, could lead to general loss of customer confidence that could negatively affect American Express, including harming the market perception of the effectiveness of American Express’ security measures or the financial system in general, which could result in reduced use of American Express products and services, and have an adverse impact on the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates, including the level of receivables held in the trust or the amount of certificates issued in the future. Although American Express has insurance against cyber-risks and attacks, it may not be sufficient to offset the impact of a material loss event.

Disruptions in American Express’ global network systems could impact the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates.

The transaction authorization, clearing and settlement systems utilized by American Express and its affiliates may experience service interruptions as a result of technology malfunction, fire, natural disasters, power loss,

27

disruptions in long distance or local telecommunications access, fraud, terrorism, climate change or accident. A disaster or other problem at American Express facilities could interrupt services. Terrorists, activists or hackers may also attack these facilities or systems, leading to service interruptions, increased costs or data security compromises. Additionally, American Express relies on third-party service providers, merchants, processors, aggregators, GNS partners and other third parties for the timely transmission of information across its global network. Inadequate infrastructure in lesser developed countries could also result in service disruptions. If a service provider fails to provide the required communications capacity or services, as a result of natural disaster, operational disruption, terrorism, hacking or other cybersecurity incidents or any other reason, the failure could interrupt services, adversely affect the perception of the American Express brands’ reliability and adversely impact the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates, including the ability to generate new receivables, the level of receivables in the trust, collections of such receivables and the amount of certificates issued in the future, which could result in a pay-out event and acceleration of payment or reduced payment on your certificates.

Ongoing legal proceedings regarding provisions in American Express’ merchant contracts have required, and could in the future require, changes to those provisions that could adversely impact the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates.

The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) and certain state attorneys general have brought an action against American Express alleging that the provisions in American Express’ card acceptance agreements with merchants that prohibit merchants from discriminating against American Express’ card products at the point of sale violate the U.S. antitrust laws. VISA and MasterCard, which were also defendants in the DOJ and state action, entered into a settlement and have been dismissed as parties pursuant to that agreement, which was approved by the court. The settlement enjoins VISA and MasterCard from entering into contracts that prohibit merchants from engaging in various actions to steer cardholders to other cards products or payment forms at the point of sale. On February 19, 2015, the trial court found that such provisions were anticompetitive and on April 30, 2015 issued an injunction requiring American Express to change the challenged provisions. The trial and appellate courts denied American Express’ request for a stay of the injunction and the injunction will become effective on July 20, 2015. As a result, American Express will have to change its merchant agreements in a way that exposes its card products to increased steering and other forms of discrimination that could impair the Card Member experience during the pendency of our appeal and potentially thereafter. American Express is vigorously pursuing an appeal of the decision and judgment. In addition, American Express is a defendant in a number of actions, including proposed class actions, filed by merchants that challenge the non-discrimination and honor-all-cards provisions in American Express’ card acceptance agreements. In December 2013, American Express agreed to settle these merchant class actions and the settlement agreement has been preliminarily approved by the court. There can be no assurance that the court will grant final approval of the settlement agreement, which can be impacted by objections to the settlement agreement by plaintiffs and other parties, as well as by the appeals process. A description of these legal proceedings is contained in “Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables — Legal Proceedings” in this prospectus.

No assurance can be given that the consequences of the outcomes in these proceedings against American Express would not have an adverse impact on the trust, TRS, the banks, the transferors or their affiliates, including the ability to generate new receivables, the level of receivables, including finance charge receivables, held in the trust or the amount of certificates issued in the future.

Centurion and FSB may change the terms of the credit card accounts in a way that reduces or slows collections. These changes may result in reduced, accelerated or delayed payments to you.

As owners of the accounts, Centurion and FSB retain the right to change various credit card account terms (including finance charges and other fees it charges and the required minimum monthly payment). A pay-out event could occur if Centurion or FSB, as applicable, reduced the finance charges and other fees it charges, and a corresponding decrease in finance charges resulted. In addition, changes in the credit card account terms may alter payment patterns. If payment rates decrease significantly at a time when you are scheduled to receive principal, you might receive principal more slowly than expected.

Neither Centurion nor FSB will reduce the interest rate it charges on the receivables or other fees if that action would result in a payout event, unless it is required by law to do so or it determines that such reduction is necessary

28

to maintain its credit card business on a competitive basis, based on its good faith assessment of its business competition.

Neither Centurion nor FSB has restrictions on its ability to change the terms of the credit card accounts except as described above or in this prospectus. Changes in relevant law, changes in the marketplace or prudent business practices could cause Centurion or FSB, as applicable, to change credit card account terms.

Credit card rates may decline without a corresponding change in the amounts needed to pay the certificates, which could result in a delay or reduction in payments of your certificates.

Some accounts may have finance charges set at a variable rate based on a designated index (for example, the prime rate). A series or class of certificates may bear interest either at a fixed rate or at a floating rate based on a different index. If the rate charged on the accounts declines, collections of finance charge receivables may be reduced without a corresponding reduction in the amounts payable as interest on the certificates and other amounts paid from collections of finance charge receivables. This could result in delayed or reduced principal and interest payments to you.

The market value of the certificates could decrease if the ratings of the certificates are lowered or withdrawn or if there is an unsolicited issuance of a lower rating.

The initial rating of a certificate addresses the likelihood of the payment of interest on that certificate when due and the ultimate payment of principal of that certificate by its legal maturity date. The ratings do not address the likelihood of the payment of principal of a certificate on its expected final payment date. In addition, the ratings do not address the likelihood of early payment or acceleration of a certificate, which could be caused by a pay-out event.

The ratings of the certificates are not a recommendation to buy, hold or sell the certificates. The ratings of the certificates may be lowered or withdrawn entirely at any time by the applicable rating agency without notice from Centurion, FSB, TRS or the transferors to certificateholders of such change in rating. In addition, a rating agency could choose to provide an unsolicited rating on a series, class or tranche of certificates, without notice to or from the banks, TRS, the transferors or the issuing entity, and that unsolicited rating could be lower than the ratings provided by the other rating agencies. If a series, class or tranche of certificates has had its ratings lowered or withdrawn, or if a series, class or tranche of certificates has received an unsolicited rating that is lower than the other ratings of such series, class or tranche of certificates, the market value of the certificates could decrease.

Issuances of additional series or additional certificates in outstanding series by the trust may adversely affect your certificates.

The trust is a master trust that has issued other series of certificates and is expected to issue additional series from time to time. The trust may also “reopen” or later issue additional certificates in an outstanding series, including Series 201[•]-[•], as described under “Series Provisions — Additional Issuances of Series 201[•]-[•] Certificates.” All such certificates are payable from the receivables in the trust. The trust may issue additional series or additional certificates in an outstanding series with terms that are different from your series without notice to you (or the existing certificateholders) and without your (or their) prior review or consent. Before the trust can issue a new series, or additional certificates in an outstanding series, each rating agency that has rated an outstanding series must confirm in writing that the issuance of the new series or additional certificates will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its earlier rating. Nevertheless, the issuance of a new series, or additional certificates in an outstanding series, could affect the timing and amounts of payments on any outstanding certificates.

The owners of the certificates of any new series or of any additional certificates issued in an outstanding series will have voting rights that will reduce the percentage interest represented by your certificates. Such voting rights may relate to the ability to approve waivers and give consents. The actions which may be affected include directing the appointment of a successor servicer following a servicer default, amending the pooling and servicing agreement and directing a reassignment of the entire portfolio of accounts.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Groups of Series” in this prospectus.

Addition of accounts to the trust may decrease the credit quality of the assets securing the repayment of your certificates. If this occurs, your receipt of payments of principal and interest may be reduced, delayed or accelerated.

The assets of the trust change every day. The transferors may choose, or may be required, to add receivables to the trust. The accounts from which these receivables arise may have different terms and conditions from the accounts already designated to the trust. For example, the new accounts may have higher or lower fees or interest rates or different payment terms. We cannot guarantee that new accounts will be of the same credit quality as the accounts currently or historically designated to the trust. If the credit quality of the assets in the trust were to deteriorate, the trust’s ability to make payments on the certificates could be adversely affected. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” in this prospectus.

Any amounts in a prefunding account that are not invested in receivables may result in an early return of principal and may create a reinvestment risk for you.

The transferors may, in connection with any series, create a prefunding account and deposit a portion of the proceeds of the series into the account. Moneys in the account will be invested in additional principal receivables. Any money in the prefunding account not used by a specific date, however, must be paid to the holders of the certificates of that series. This payment will result in an early return of principal. In such an event, the transferors do not expect to pay a prepayment penalty or premium.

If you receive an early payment of principal at a time when prevailing interest rates are relatively low, you may not be able to reinvest the proceeds in a comparable security with an effective interest rate equivalent to that of your certificates.

The Issuing Entity

American Express Credit Account Master Trust, also referred to as the issuing entity or the trust, was formed in 1996 pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement. This pooling and servicing agreement, as amended and restated as of April 16, 2004, as of January 1, 2006 and as of [        ] [    ], 2015, and as may be further amended from time to time, is among American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., or TRS, as servicer, RFC III and RFC IV, as transferors, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee. The trust does not have any officers or directors.

Prior to April 16, 2004, Centurion transferred receivables directly to the trustee. Prior to April 16, 2004, Centurion also transferred receivables to Credco, which in turn transferred receivables to RFC II, which then transferred receivables to the trustee. As permitted by the pooling and servicing agreement, the pooling and servicing agreement was amended and restated as of April 16, 2004 (the “substitution date”) to substitute RFC III as transferor in place of Centurion. In addition, the pooling and servicing agreement was amended to designate FSB as an account owner and RFC IV as a transferor. RFC II ceased transferring receivables to the trustee but remained a transferor until [        ] [    ], 2015 (the “RFC II removal date”), when the pooling and servicing agreement was amended and restated again, in part to remove RFC II as a transferor.

On the substitution date, Centurion entered into a purchase agreement with RFC III and FSB entered into a purchase agreement with RFC IV. Under the purchase agreements, each of Centurion and FSB sold its existing right, title and interest in, and on an ongoing basis will sell, the receivables in the designated accounts to RFC III and RFC IV, respectively. RFC III and RFC IV, as transferors under the pooling and servicing agreement, in turn transfer the receivables to the trust.

The trust, as a master trust, previously has issued other series of asset backed certificates and expects to issue additional series from time to time.

The trust’s activities are limited to:

• acquiring and holding the receivables and the other trust assets and the proceeds from these assets;

• issuing certificates;

• making payments on the certificates; and

• engaging in other activities that are necessary or incidental to accomplish these limited purposes.

Consequently, the trust does not and is not expected to have any source of capital resources other than the trust assets. The trust is formed under and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The fiscal year for the trust will end on December 31 of each year.

Each transferor, being Centurion and RFC II prior to the substitution date, being RFC II, RFC III and RFC IV on and after the substitution date but prior to the RFC II removal date, and being RFC III and RFC IV and any additional transferor on and after the RFC II removal date, has conveyed and will convey to the trust, without recourse, its interest in all receivables arising under the portfolio of accounts in the trust. The receivables consist of all amounts charged by account holders for goods and services and cash advances, called principal receivables, and all related periodic rate finance charges, annual membership fees, cash advance fees, late charge fees, returned check charges, overlimit fees, Issuer Rate Fees, and any other fees and charges billed on the accounts from time to time, collectively called finance charge receivables.

The trust assets consist of such receivables, all monies due or to become due thereunder, the proceeds of the receivables, all monies and other property on deposit in certain accounts maintained for the benefit of the certificateholders and Recoveries (net of collection expenses) received by the servicer including proceeds from the sale or securitization of Defaulted Receivables and proceeds of credit insurance policies relating to such receivables

31

and related property conveyed to the trustee pursuant to an assignment, the right to receive Issuer Rate Fees attributed to the receivables, all monies on deposit in the Collection Account, the Special Funding Account and in certain accounts maintained for the benefit of the certificateholders, any series enhancements, and all of each transferor’s legal rights and remedies under the purchase agreements. Uniform Commercial Code financing statements have been and will be filed, to the extent appropriate, to perfect the ownership or security interests of the trust and the trustee described herein.

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, a transferor will have the right (subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth therein), and in some circumstances will be obligated, to designate from time to time additional eligible accounts to be included as accounts and to transfer to the trust all receivables of such additional accounts, whether such receivables are then existing or thereafter created. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” in this prospectus.

A transferor also has the right (subject to certain limitations and conditions) to require the trustee to reconvey all receivables in accounts designated by that transferor for removal, whether such receivables are then existing or thereafter created. Once an account is removed, receivables existing under that account are not transferred to the trust. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Removal of Accounts” in this prospectus.

Throughout the term of the trust, the accounts from which the receivables arise will be the accounts designated on the Initial Cut-Off Date plus any Additional Accounts minus any accounts that have been removed. With respect to each series of certificates issued by the trust, the transferors will represent and warrant that, as of the related selection dates, such receivables meet certain eligibility requirements.

Additional information regarding the receivables in the Trust Portfolio is provided in Annex I to this prospectus, which forms an integral part of this prospectus.

The Trust Portfolio

General

The primary assets of the trust are receivables generated from time to time in a portfolio of designated consumer American Express credit card accounts and Pay Over Time revolving credit features associated with charge card accounts and, in the future, may include other charge or credit accounts or products.

Additional information regarding the receivables in the Trust Portfolio is provided in Annex I to this prospectus, which forms an integral part of this prospectus.

Static Pool Information

Static pool information regarding the performance of the receivables in the Total Portfolio is provided in Annex II to this prospectus, which forms an integral part of this prospectus.

Pool Asset Review

As required under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the transferors are responsible for performing a review of the receivables in the Trust Portfolio and the disclosure relating to those receivables required to be included in this prospectus by Item 1111 of Regulation AB. The review, which is conducted by the transferors and their affiliates as described further below, primarily consists of the periodic review of internal data systems, including the related financial controls and processes, and the review of information relating to the receivables included in this prospectus, including both quantitative data and certain qualitative or factual disclosure.

32

The review described below is designed and effected to provide reasonable assurance that the disclosure regarding the receivables in the Trust Portfolio in this prospectus, including the information provided in Annex I and Annex II to this prospectus, is accurate in all material respects.

Review of Data Flow and Controls

Centurion, FSB and their affiliates have data collection systems that, together, are designed to process and validate all incoming financial transactions for U.S. credit and charge Card Members and service establishments, including Card Member spending and other activity such as remittances, fees, account adjustments and merchant transactions. Centurion, FSB and their affiliates have established controls over these data collection systems to provide reasonable assurance regarding the completeness, accuracy, validity and timeliness of data received and sent by the data collection systems.

Data relating to Card Member spending and remittance activity is output from the data collection systems to the servicer’s account servicing platform, which accumulates and processes spending and other activity for American Express’ credit and charge Card Members. The servicer and its affiliates have established controls over the account servicing platform to provide reasonable assurance regarding the completeness, accuracy, validity and timeliness of the data received and sent by the account servicing platform.

Data generated by the account servicing platform is sent to the servicer’s securitization technology system. The securitization technology system also utilizes data provided by an internal risk information management system, including Card Members’ credit bureau information. Within the securitization technology system, information relating to the accounts in the Trust Portfolio is processed and consolidated for reporting purposes, including for the inclusion in this prospectus of data relating to the receivables in the Trust Portfolio. The servicer and its affiliates have established controls over the securitization technology system to provide reasonable assurance regarding the completeness, accuracy, validity and timeliness of the data input from the account servicing platform to the securitization technology system.

As described above, Centurion, FSB, the servicer and their affiliates have developed financial controls over the data collection systems, the account servicing platform and the securitization technology system to provide reasonable assurance regarding the completeness, accuracy and timeliness of data received by and exchanged between these systems. Included among these are controls to validate, confirm, balance, reconcile and calculate data as it moves through the systems. Discrepancies identified by these controls are recorded, investigated and resolved. Internal risk management standards developed by Centurion, FSB, the servicer and their affiliates require the periodic testing of these controls using predetermined sampling methodologies. The sample size used for testing each control is based on the frequency with which that control operates and whether the control is automated or manual. Centurion, FSB, the servicer and their affiliates have determined that the frequency with which these controls are tested and the testing methods used provide reasonable assurance that the data generated by these systems is accurate in all material respects. In addition to periodic testing of the controls, the internal departments that oversee the controls certify to the effectiveness of the controls on a quarterly or annual basis, depending on the type of control.

Review of Data and Other Disclosure

The transferors and their affiliates use information generated by the securitization technology system to create reports used to populate the tables included in Annex I and Annex II to this prospectus. The transferors and their affiliates, with the assistance of a third party, conduct a review of the quantitative data in those tables in which the data presented is compared with the reports generated by the securitization technology system and certain recalculations are performed. The transferors attribute all findings and conclusions of the review to themselves.

Disclosure in this prospectus consisting of qualitative or factual information regarding the receivables in the Trust Portfolio was reviewed and approved by those officers and employees of Centurion, FSB, the servicer, the transferors and their affiliates who are knowledgeable about such information.

33

Underwriting and Authorization Process

The underwriting and authorization procedures applicable to the accounts are described under “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses — Underwriting and Authorization Process” in this prospectus. Centurion, FSB and their affiliates regularly engage in activities that are designed to monitor and measure compliance with established credit underwriting and authorization policies, including testing of automated approval systems. These activities are overseen by an individual credit risk committee and a number of its specialized subcommittees. This committee is responsible for the design and implementation of credit processes and credit risk controls, including in the areas of authorizations, new account approval, credit line management, risk modeling, identification, monitoring and measurement of risk, and escalation of risk issues. Among other functions, this committee and its subcommittees review and approve underwriting and customer management policies, monitor adherence to these policies and monitor performance of credit risk processes.

On a quarterly basis, employees of Centurion, FSB and their affiliates conduct a review to validate the accuracy of the proprietary risk score used in the underwriting and authorization process to predict future credit performance. The results of this validation are evaluated by the modeling subcommittee to determine whether adjustments to the individual credit risk model should be made. Using an automated system that operates on a daily basis, Centurion, FSB and their affiliates verify that the applications approved and credit lines granted by the automated system have correctly applied the decision logic established by the system’s designers. On a monthly basis, employees of Centurion, FSB and their affiliates measure the outcomes of the underwriting and authorization systems and specified portfolio level statistics against pre-set escalation metrics. Issues are escalated in accordance with policy to the individual credit risk committee or the appropriate subcommittee for evaluation to determine whether any changes to policies, strategies or models should be made.

[If applicable, describe the nature of the review of additional pool assets added to the Trust Portfolio that were originated using materially different underwriting criteria performed by the transferors and whether those assets deviate from disclosed underwriting criteria or other criteria.]

Conclusion of Review

After undertaking the review described above, the transferors have concluded that they have reasonable assurance that the disclosure regarding the receivables in the Trust Portfolio in this prospectus, including the information provided in Annex I and Annex II to this prospectus, is accurate in all material respects.

Repurchases and Replacements

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, each transferor makes certain representations and warranties to the trust about the receivables. If a transferor materially breaches certain of those representations or warranties, under certain circumstances, all of the Ineligible Receivables will be reassigned to such transferor and the related accounts will no longer be included in the Trust Portfolio. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus.

Under the purchase agreements, each of Centurion and FSB, respectively, makes certain representations and warranties to the applicable purchaser about the receivables. If Centurion or FSB, as applicable, breaches certain of those representations or warranties and, as a result, the respective purchaser is required under the pooling and servicing agreement to accept a reassignment of the related Ineligible Receivables as described above, then Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will accept reassignment of such Ineligible Receivables. See “Description of the Purchase Agreements — Repurchase Obligations” in this prospectus.

In the past three years, no assets securitized by the sponsors were the subject of a demand for reassignment or repurchase for breach of representations and warranties. All such demands for reassignment or repurchase are disclosed on Form ABS-15G and on the trust’s monthly distribution reports on Form 10-D. The most recent Form ABS-15G covering the receivables in the trust was filed on [●] [●], 201[●] under CIK number 0000949349.

Under certain circumstances, investors in the certificates may direct an asset representations reviewer to perform a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent and the accounts relating to such receivables for compliance with certain representations and warranties on the receivables and the accounts. See “Asset Representations Review” in this prospectus.

34

The Accounts

The receivables have arisen or will arise in certain revolving credit accounts that have been selected from the Total Portfolio, in each case, on the basis of criteria set forth in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement. An account in the Total Portfolio must be an Eligible Account to be selected for inclusion in the portfolio of accounts, the receivables of which will be owned by the trust. The accounts include and may include all related accounts that satisfy certain conditions set forth in the pooling and servicing agreement or are originated as a result of (a) a credit or charge card being lost or stolen or (b) the conversion of an account into another type of Eligible Account.

Accounts which relate to bankrupt obligors or certain charged-off receivables may be designated as accounts provided that the amount of principal receivables in any such account is deemed to be zero for purposes of all allocations under the pooling and servicing agreement.

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, in certain circumstances, the transferors will be obligated (subject to certain limitations and conditions) to designate, from time to time, eligible accounts to be included as accounts, the receivables of which will ultimately be conveyed to the trust. None of the transferors owns accounts. If any transferor is required to designate accounts to the trust, it may give notice of the required addition directly or indirectly, as the case may be, to Centurion or FSB, as applicable. Under the applicable purchase agreement, Centurion or FSB will be obligated to designate accounts as requested. In addition, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, may, with the consent of the applicable transferor designate accounts and sell the receivables in those accounts to such transferor. See “The Purchase Agreements” in this prospectus. Such accounts designated for the trust must meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement as of the applicable selection date. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Additions of Accounts” in this prospectus for a more detailed discussion of the circumstances and manner in which the receivables arising in Additional Accounts will be conveyed to the trust.

As of each date with respect to which any transferor transfers any receivables arising in Additional Accounts, such transferor will represent and warrant to the trust that such receivables meet the eligibility requirements set forth in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Conveyance of Receivables” in this prospectus. The eligibility of accounts is assessed only on the applicable selection date, while the eligibility of receivables is assessed only on the applicable selection date (in the case of receivables then existing in Additional Accounts on such date) or as of the date of creation (in the case of new receivables arising in an account). Accordingly, there can be no assurance that all of such accounts and receivables will continue to meet the eligibility requirements as of any subsequent date, including any subsequent series closing date.

Subject to certain limitations and restrictions, the transferors may also designate certain accounts for removal from the trust, in which case the receivables of the removed accounts will be reassigned to the transferors. Throughout the term of the trust, the receivables in the trust will consist of receivables generated under the accounts (including Additional Accounts). Such receivables will not include the receivables generated under removed accounts.

Centurion and FSB transfer to RFC III and RFC IV, respectively, and RFC III and RFC IV in turn transfer to the trust, the Issuer Rate Fees. Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, these Issuer Rate Fees are treated as collections of finance charge receivables. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses — Issuer Rate Fees” above.

Transaction Parties

Account Owners and Sponsors

Centurion

Centurion is a sponsor of the trust and, as such, organizes and initiates the asset-backed securities transactions of the trust. Centurion also is an account owner of certain consumer credit or charge card accounts or features, the receivables of which are included in the trust. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses” in this prospectus. In addition, on behalf of TRS as servicer, Centurion performs limited servicing functions with respect to receivables in the trust. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Collection and Other Servicing Procedures” in this prospectus for a description of certain matters relating to the servicing functions provided by Centurion.

Centurion has been involved in the securitization of consumer credit card receivables since 1996, when it formed the trust. In addition, Centurion is an account owner of certain charge accounts, the receivables of which are included in the American Express Issuance Trust II, which securitizes consumer and small business charge receivables. The American Express Issuance Trust II was formed in 2012, but Centurion has been involved in the securitization of charge receivables since 1998, first in connection with the American Express Master Trust and then in connection with the American Express Issuance Trust.

Centurion is an industrial loan bank incorporated under Utah laws in 1987. It received FDIC insurance in 1989. Its principal office is located at 4315 South 2700 West, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, and its telephone number is (801) 945-2000. Centurion is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TRS.

Centurion is the surviving company of a 1996 merger with an affiliated bank which was also named American Express Centurion Bank. Prior to the merger, the affiliated bank was one of the transferors. In connection with the merger, Centurion assumed all of the rights and obligations of the affiliated bank with respect to the accounts owned by it.

FSB

FSB is a sponsor of the trust and, as such, organizes and initiates the asset-backed securities transactions of the trust. FSB also is an account owner of certain consumer credit or charge card accounts or features, the receivables of which are included in the trust. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses” in this prospectus. In addition, on behalf of TRS as servicer, FSB performs limited servicing functions with respect to receivables in the trust. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Collection and Other Servicing Procedures” in this prospectus for a description of certain matters relating to the servicing functions provided by FSB.

FSB has been involved in the securitization of consumer credit card receivables since 2004, when it was added as an account owner. In addition, FSB is an account owner of certain charge accounts, the receivables of which are included in the American Express Issuance Trust II, which securitizes consumer and small business charge receivables. Centurion had previously been involved in the securitization of charge receivables in connection with the American Express Issuance Trust, which was formed in 2005.

FSB was chartered by the OTS under the laws of the United States of America as a federal savings bank in 2000 and received FDIC insurance in 2000. Its principal office is located at 4315 South 2700 West, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, and its telephone number is (801) 945-3000. FSB is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TRS.

In December 2003, FSB and certain of its affiliates received OTS approval to, among other things, transfer ownership of FSB from American Express Financial Corporation to TRS, relocate its headquarters from Minneapolis, Minnesota to Salt Lake City, Utah, and amend its business plan to permit FSB to offer certain credit, charge and consumer lending products, small business loans, mortgages and mortgage-related products and a transactional website. The implementation of the changes to FSB’s business plan began in the first quarter of 2004 with the transfer of certain credit card and charge accounts from Centurion to FSB.

36

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the responsibility and authority of the OTS to supervise federal savings associations, including FSB, was transferred to the OCC in July 2011.

Depositors and Transferors

RFC III

RFC III, a depositor and transferor, was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 11, 2004. Its sole member is Centurion. RFC III was formed for the limited purpose of issuing securities of the type offered hereby, purchasing, holding, owning and selling receivables and any activities incidental to and necessary or convenient for the accomplishment of such purposes. Neither Centurion, as sole member of RFC III, nor RFC III’s board of directors, intends to change the business purpose of RFC III.

Since its formation, RFC III has been engaged in these activities solely as (i) the purchaser of receivables from Centurion pursuant to the related purchase agreement, (ii) a transferor of receivables to the issuing entity pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, (iii) the holder of the Transferors’ Interest in the issuing entity and (iv) a transferor that executes underwriting, subscription and purchase agreements in connection with each issuance of certificates. RFC III may also act as a depositor for other master trusts or other securitization special purpose entities affiliated with Centurion, but has not done so to date.

A description of RFC III’s obligations as a transferor of the receivables to the trust can be found in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Conveyance of Receivables,” “— Representations and Warranties,” “— Addition of Accounts” and “— Removal of Accounts” in this prospectus.

RFC III was initially capitalized by a cash contribution from Centurion. Pursuant to a revolving credit agreement, RFC III may borrow funds from Centurion for the sole purpose of purchasing receivables from Centurion under the related purchase agreement. Under the revolving credit agreement, payments from RFC III are due only to the extent that those funds are not required for any other purpose and so long as the payment will not cause RFC III to default under the pooling and servicing agreement.

RFC III’s executive offices are located at 4315 South 2700 West, Room 3020-3, 02-01-03, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, and its telephone number is (801) 945-2550.

RFC IV

RFC IV, a depositor and transferor, was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 11, 2004. Its sole member is FSB. RFC IV was formed for the limited purpose of issuing securities of the type offered hereby, purchasing, holding, owning and selling receivables and any activities incidental to and necessary or convenient for the accomplishment of such purposes. Neither FSB, as sole member of RFC IV, nor RFC IV’s board of directors, intends to change the business purpose of RFC IV.

Since its formation, RFC IV has been engaged in these activities solely as (i) the purchaser of receivables from FSB pursuant to the related purchase agreement, (ii) a transferor of receivables to the issuing entity pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, (iii) the holder of the Transferors’ Interest in the issuing entity and (iv) a transferor that executes underwriting, subscription and purchase agreements in connection with each issuance of certificates. RFC IV may also act as a depositor for other master trusts or other securitization special purpose entities affiliated with FSB, but has not done so to date.

A description of RFC IV’s obligations as a transferor of the receivables to the trust can be found in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Conveyance of Receivables,” “— Representations and Warranties,” “— Additions of Accounts” and “— Removal of Accounts” in this prospectus.

RFC IV was initially capitalized by a cash contribution from FSB. Pursuant to a revolving credit agreement, RFC IV may borrow funds from FSB for the sole purpose of purchasing receivables from FSB under the related purchase agreement. Under the revolving credit agreement, payments from RFC IV are due only to the extent that

37

those funds are not required for any other purpose and so long as the payment will not cause RFC IV to default under the pooling and servicing agreement.

RFC IV’s executive offices are located at 4315 South 2700 West, Room 1100, 02-01-46, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, and its telephone number is (801) 945-2068.

[Credit Risk Retention]

[Include after compliance date for risk retention rules: In accordance with the credit risk retention requirements of Regulation RR issued by the SEC, Centurion and FSB, directly as sponsors, or RFC III and RFC IV, as depositors and as wholly-owned affiliates of the sponsors, are required to retain an economic interest in the credit risk of the receivables in the trust. The sponsors and the depositors intend to satisfy the risk retention requirements by maintaining a seller’s interest in the trust, calculated in accordance with Regulation RR, that will equal not less than five percent of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all investor certificates, other than any certificates that have been at all times held by the sponsors or one or more wholly-owned affiliates of the sponsors. For purpose of the calculation described in the preceding sentence, a wholly-owned affiliate of either sponsor will include any person, other than the issuing entity, that directly or indirectly, wholly controls (i.e. owns 100% of the equity in such sponsor), is wholly controlled by, or is wholly under common control with, such sponsor.

The required seller’s interest will be maintained by the sponsors and the depositors through depositors’ ownership of the Transferors’ Interest, which represents the interest in the trust not represented by your series or by any other series. The Transferors’ Interest is entitled to share in allocations of certain amounts, including finance charge collections, principal collections and defaults, as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Allocations.” The amount of principal receivables in the master trust will vary each day as new principal receivables are created and others are paid or charged off as uncollectible. Therefore, the amount of the Transferors’ Interest will fluctuate each day to reflect the changes in the amount of the principal receivables in the trust. In addition, the Transferors’ Interest will generally increase to reflect reductions in the invested amount of any series, including as the result of payments of principal, and will generally decrease as a result of the issuance of a new series of investor certificates or of additional investor certificates in an outstanding series. The sponsors and the depositors will not sell or otherwise transfer an interest in the Transferors’ Interest in a manner that is prohibited under the Regulation RR, nor will they enter into any prohibited hedging arrangement with respect to the Transferors’ Interest.

For purposes of compliance with Regulation RR, the seller’s interest will equal the excess of the aggregate amount of principal receivables in the trust over the aggregate investor interest in receivables for all outstanding series of certificates. As of the closing date, through the ownership of the Transferors’ Interest, we expect to have a seller’s interest equal to $[•], which will equal [•]% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all investor certificates, other than any certificates that have been at all times held by the sponsors or one or more wholly-owned affiliates of the sponsors. For purposes of determining the seller’s interest on the closing date, we have used the aggregate principal balance of the receivables in the trust as of [insert date not more than 60 days prior to the date of first use of disclosure] and the principal balance of the certificates expected to be outstanding as of the closing date, including $[•] of Series 201[•]-[•] certificates. Approximately [•]% of the seller’s interest is allocated to RFC III, and approximately [•]% of the seller’s interest is allocated to RFC IV, in each case as of the closing date. The issuing entity will disclose on Form 8-K within a reasonable time after the closing date the amount of the seller’s interest as of the closing date and the allocation of the seller’s interest to each transferor, in each case if materially different from that disclosed in this prospectus. In addition, the transferors will disclose in each of the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D the amount of the seller’s interest as of each measurement date described below.

The seller’s interest will be calculated as a percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all investor certificates, other than any certificates that have been at all times held by the sponsors or one or more wholly-owned affiliates of the sponsors, as of [insert applicable measurement date]. If such percentage is not increased to at least five percent by [insert applicable cure date not to exceed one month], the sponsors and the depositors will fail to satisfy [the credit risk retention rules]. However, the sponsors and the depositors will not violate [the credit risk retention rules] if the required seller’s interest falls below five percent of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all investor certificates, other than any certificates that have been at all times held by the sponsors or one or more wholly-owned affiliates of the sponsors, if an early amortization period commences for all outstanding certificates and the sponsors and the depositors were in compliance with the risk retention requirements as of the commencement of early amortization, and no additional certificates are issued thereafter.]

Servicer

TRS is the servicer of the trust. As servicer, it is responsible for servicing, managing and making collections on the receivables in the trust. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Collection and Other Servicing Procedures” in this prospectus. TRS has outsourced certain functions to affiliated and unaffiliated third parties, but it remains responsible for the overall servicing process. For information about certain affiliated and unaffiliated third party vendors that provide these services, including Centurion and FSB, see “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Outsourcing of Servicing” in this prospectus.

TRS, a company incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on May 3, 1982, is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Express Company and the direct parent company of Centurion, FSB, RFC II and American Express Credit Corporation (“Credco”). TRS, directly or through its subsidiaries, provides a variety of products and services, including the charge card accounts, consumer loans, American Express^® Travelers Cheques, consumer

38

travel products and services, database marketing and management and insurance. TRS’ principal office is located at 200 Vesey Street, New York, New York 10285-4405, and its telephone number is (212) 640-2000.

Bank Holding Company Status

American Express Company and TRS are bank holding companies under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (“BHC Act”) and have elected to be treated as financial holding companies under the BHC Act. As bank holding companies under the BHC Act, American Express Company and TRS are subject to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

The Trustee

The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, is the trustee under the pooling and servicing agreement. Its principal corporate trust office is located at 101 Barclay Street, Floor 7 West, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration — Asset Backed Securities, New York, New York 10286. The Bank of New York Mellon has been, and currently is, serving as indenture trustee and trustee for numerous securitization transactions and programs involving pools of credit card receivables.

In the ordinary course of business, The Bank of New York Mellon is named as a defendant in or made a party to pending and potential legal actions. In connection with its role as trustee of certain residential mortgage-backed securitization (“RMBS”) transactions, The Bank of New York Mellon was named as a defendant in a lawsuit brought in New York State court on June 18, 2014 by a group of institutional investors. This lawsuit alleges that the trustee had expansive duties under the governing agreements, including the duty to investigate and pursue breach of representation and warranty claims against other parties to the RMBS transactions. While it is inherently difficult to predict the eventual outcomes of pending actions, The Bank of New York Mellon denies liability and intends to defend the litigation vigorously.

The Bank of New York Mellon has provided the above information for purposes of complying with Regulation AB. Other than the previous two paragraphs and the first three sentences under “Prospectus Summary — Trustee” in this prospectus, The Bank of New York Mellon has not participated in the preparation of, and is not responsible for, any other information contained in this prospectus.

The transferors, the servicer, the account owners and their respective affiliates may from time to time enter into normal banking and trustee relationships with the trustee and its affiliates. The trustee or the transferors may hold certificates in their own names; however, any certificates so held shall not be entitled to participate in any decisions made or instructions given to the trustee by the certificateholders as a group. In addition, for purposes of meeting the legal requirements of certain local jurisdictions, the trustee shall have the power to appoint, with the consent of the transferors (who shall not unreasonably withhold their consent), a co-trustee or separate trustees of all or any part of the trust. In the event of such appointment, all rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be conferred or imposed upon the trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly or, in any jurisdiction in which the trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform certain acts, singly upon such separate trustee or co-trustee, who shall exercise and perform such rights, powers, duties and obligations solely at the direction of the trustee.

See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — The Trustee” in this prospectus.

Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses

General

The receivables transferred to the trust are generated from transactions made by holders of consumer American Express revolving credit card accounts and “Pay Over Time” revolving credit features associated with American Express charge card accounts, all issued by Centurion or FSB. Cards issued by Centurion and FSB are accepted worldwide, and may be used for the purchase of merchandise and services.

39

Subject to certain conditions, the transferors may convey to the trust receivables arising in charge or credit accounts or other charge or credit products that may be of a type not currently included as accounts. Such accounts and products may be originated, underwritten, used or collected in a different manner than the accounts described below and may differ with respect to loss and delinquency experience, revenue experience and historical payment rates. Such accounts and products may also have different terms than the accounts described below and may be subject to different servicing, charge-off and collection practices. Consequently, the addition to the trust of receivables arising in such accounts or from such products could have the effect of reducing the Portfolio Yield.

Credit Card Accounts. American Express credit card accounts may be used to purchase merchandise and services from merchants accepting American Express credit cards, to transfer balances from other credit accounts or to obtain cash advances. American Express credit card accounts are primarily solicited through direct mail, inbound and outbound telemarketing, online and other remote marketing channels. Offers are made to existing Card Members and to non-Card Members. In addition, FSB offers American Express credit card accounts that are originated under affinity or co-branded programs between one of the American Express banks and certain unaffiliated entities, which can include in-person marketing. Centurion and FSB also run print, radio, television and online advertisements for American Express credit card accounts and have a toll-free telephone number and online channels for requests for information and applications. Receivables may also be generated by soliciting the transfer of account balances from American Express’ competitors’ accounts.

Pay Over Time Features. Certain charge card account holders in good standing may be eligible to use one or more Pay Over Time features. Sign & Travel, the Extended Payment Option, and Select & Pay Later are the three Pay Over Time features a Card Member may qualify for or enroll in at this date. Each Pay Over Time feature allows charge Card Members enrolled in the feature to pay off certain eligible charges over time, while all other non-eligible charges remain due in full upon receipt of the statement by the Card Member. The majority of Card Member’s Pay Over Time balances are capped at $35,000. Card Members who enroll in Sign & Travel have all eligible travel-related charges (such as airline and cruise ship tickets, hotels, car rentals and foreign charges) automatically placed into a Pay Over Time balance. Card Members who enroll in the Extended Payment Option have all charges of $100 or more (except for cash and certain other transactions) automatically placed into a Pay Over Time balance. Card Members who use Select & Pay Later have charges of $100 or more (except for cash and certain other transactions) placed into a Pay Over Time balance by request, subject to approval.

Underwriting and Authorization Process

Underwriting. On an ongoing basis, Centurion and FSB adopt and evaluate policies for underwriting and authorizations. They contract with TRS for services, including the development and implementation of systems and specifications for underwriting and authorizations.

Centurion and FSB evaluate applications for American Express credit card accounts using a framework that evaluates available information to predict the risk of each applicant. The framework uses proprietary risk scoring decision models and other risk criteria applied through application of underwriting policies. Underwriting policies reflect the banks’ risk tolerance levels, which take account of factors including the current and future macro-economic environments. The performance trends of accounts originated at different score cut-off levels as compared to projected performance are monitored and evaluated to refine the scoring and identify enhancements to the framework.

Evaluations of applications consider, among other factors, information from credit bureaus (including one or more of Experian, Inc., Trans Union Corporation and Equifax Credit Information Services), commercially available risk scores, internal and external credit history, each applicant’s relationship and history with American Express and other information, which is either publicly available or provided by the applicant in response to the application process or by third parties. The underwriting process also verifies that the information on the application is accurate, is provided by the true applicant and incorporates legal requirements.

Virtually all underwriting and authorization decisions use an automated system to capture the relevant information, execute the scoring logic, compare the proprietary risk scores against cut-off levels, apply business rules and legal requirements and then execute the approve or decline decision. In specified circumstances, including for certain product applications or where certain information is unavailable, the framework incorporates manual

40

decision-making by a dedicated, specialized and experienced team to evaluate the available information to predict risk, applying the same underwriting standard.

Credit limits are determined based upon the Card Member’s past spending patterns in relation to available credit, the Card Member’s payment behavior and the proprietary risk assessment, as well as the Card Member’s experience with other creditors and personal resources. Credit limits are assigned at the time a new account is approved. Centurion and FSB reevaluate credit limits proactively and reactively, based on monitoring the Card Member’s account activity, or after a Card Member initiates a request for a line increase. In both cases the evaluation includes a risk assessment. A stricter policy is applied to customer requests for a higher credit limit made by customers shortly after account openings (e.g., within 60 days).

The credit limits for American Express credit card accounts generally range from $500 to $50,000.

Credit Monitoring. To monitor and control the quality of the portfolio, accounts are monitored monthly, including by obtaining refreshed credit bureau information. The banks use behavioral scoring models to score each active account on its monthly cycle date. The behavioral scoring models are used to dynamically evaluate whether or not credit limits should be increased or decreased.

Point of Sale Authorization. The banks use an automated process to approve or decline transactions at the point of sale based on proprietary risk models. Merchant point-of-sale and online terminals connect with a proprietary authorization system. Card Member transactions are passed through the authorization system which considers the credit limit and other behavioral and risk factors to determine whether each transaction should be approved or declined.

Fraud. The banks contract with TRS to monitor and manage the risk of different types of fraud. TRS uses a variety of tools and proprietary models to identify suspicious transactions resulting from different types of fraud, such as fraud rings, new account fraud and transactional fraud.

Pay Over Time Features. Centurion or FSB, as appropriate, allows qualifying charge Card Members to pay certain charges over time using the Sign & Travel, Extended Payment Option, and/or Select & Pay Later features. While there generally is no preset spending limit on the charge card account, the total of a Card Member’s Pay Over Time balances generally may not exceed $35,000. This Pay Over Time limit is set at the account level and therefore is shared across all Pay Over Time features in which the account is enrolled. It is not a committed line of credit but a cap that the Pay Over Time balance may not exceed. If a purchase eligible to be paid over time would cause the total Pay Over Time balance to exceed that amount, then the transaction will not be added to the Pay Over Time balance but instead to the account’s due in full balance. Charge transactions are subject to approval at the time of utilization through a credit authorization process prior to being approved.

Billing and Payments

Consumer accounts owned by Centurion and FSB have various billing and payment structures, including various annual fees and monthly finance charges. Each account holder is subject to an agreement governing the terms and conditions of the American Express credit card account and any applicable Pay Over Time feature. Pursuant to each such agreement, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, reserves the right to add, change or terminate any terms, conditions, services or features of the account (including increasing or decreasing monthly finance charges on new transactions, fees or minimum payments). Such changes are subject to the requirements of applicable laws, including the Credit CARD Act, and to certain limitations in the pooling and servicing agreement described herein. Any announced increase in the formula used to calculate the APR, or other change making the terms of an account more stringent, generally becomes effective on a designated future date.

Credit Card Accounts. Generally, an American Express credit card account holder is charged:

(i)        An annual fee of $0.00 to $450.00.

41

(ii)        Finance charges on purchases, cash advances, and balance transfers, based on variable APRs equal to an index (currently the prime rate) plus a margin. The margin for purchases currently range from 4.99% to 18.99%, depending on the Card Member’s tenure, spending and payment patterns and type of product. The margin for cash advances is currently 21.99%. Credit card account holders who violate certain payment terms may be subject to a penalty APR with a current margin of 23.99%. A number of products have 0.00% introductory APRs and low non-variable APRs for balance transfers. Very few products have standard non-variable APRs, currently ranging generally from 9.99% to 18.99%.

(iii)        Amounts payable for certain uses of the American Express credit card, including balance transfer fees of the greater of $5.00 or 3% of the transfer amount, the standard network fee of 3% on cash advances obtained through an automated teller machine, with a $5.00 minimum charge and a 1% fee for obtaining American Express Travelers Cheques. Certain cards also have foreign exchange fees equal to 2.7% of each transaction after conversion to US dollars.

(iv)        If applicable, insufficient funds fees, late fees and other fees.

American Express credit card accounts are billed on a cycle basis. Payments on the American Express credit card accounts are generally applied, up to the minimum payment due, first to the balance with the lowest interest rate, and then to balances with higher interest rates. After the minimum payment has been paid, payments are applied to the balance with the highest interest rate, and then to balances with lower interest rates. Within each balance, payments are applied first to finance charges, then fees, then principal. If there is any past due amount, that amount is paid first. American Express credit card holders are required to make a minimum payment each cycle. The calculation of the minimum payment starts with the highest of (1) interest charged on the statement plus 1% of the new balance (excluding any overlimit amount, late fees and interest); or (2) $35; then late fees, 1/24th of any overlimit amount, and any amounts past due are added, provided that the minimum payment will not exceed the new balance.

Pay Over Time Features. There is no annual fee or other fee imposed for Pay Over Time features, except for finance charges accrued on Pay Over Time balances. The APR applicable to the Pay Over Time features is a variable rate determined based on the card product the Card Member has. Currently, except for Centurion Card Members who are given a Prime + 5.99% APR when they enroll in Select & Pay Later and Card Members who may benefit from promotional APRs from time to time, most Card Members enrolled in a Pay Over Time feature have an APR equal to the prime rate plus a margin of either 11.99% or 14.99%. To the extent a Card Member enrolled in Select & Pay Later decide to enroll in additional Pay Over Time features, the APR applicable to the Select & Pay Later feature will apply to those additional features. Charge Card Members with a Pay Over Time balance who violate certain payment terms may be subject to a penalty APR, with a current margin of 23.99%, applied to their overall Pay Over Time balance. Pay Over Time balances are billed on a cycle basis at the same time as the Card Member’s charge card account. Currently, payments made on charge card accounts with a Pay Over Time balance are generally applied first to past due Pay Over Time balances, second to past due Pay in Full balances, third to current Pay Over Time minimum payments due, fourth to current Pay in Full balances, and finally, to Pay Over Time balances exceeding the Pay Over Time minimum due. Charge Card Members with a Pay Over Time balance are required to make a minimum payment of their Pay Over Time new balance each cycle, in addition to the Pay in Full balance. Provided that it will not exceed the Pay Over Time new balance, the Pay Over Time minimum due is equal to the sum of (1) any amount past due, and (2) the greater of (i) current billed finance charges plus 1% of the Pay Over Time new balance (excluding current billed finance charges), or (ii) $35.

Collection Efforts

Efforts to collect delinquent American Express credit card accounts and Sign & Travel/ Extended Payment Option accounts are made by the appropriate issuing bank, TRS and collection agencies and attorneys retained by such issuing bank. Under current practice, Centurion and FSB include a request for payment of overdue amounts on all billing statements upon delinquency. Each of Centurion and FSB uses its proprietary risk evaluation systems to determine the appropriate collection strategy. Account holders may be contacted by either a letter or a telephone call when the account becomes delinquent or sooner based on a number of factors, including the account holder’s tenure and the amount owed in relation to prior spending and payment behavior. An account is generally considered to be delinquent if the minimum payment specified in the account holder’s most recent billing statement is not

42

received by the due date. If it is determined that the account holder is unable to pay the outstanding balance, the account is “pre-empted” — i.e., the card is cancelled, credit privileges are revoked, and more intensive collection action is initiated. For all other account holders, credit privileges are generally cancelled no later than 90 days from initial billing. If an account remains delinquent, it may be sent to collection agencies or attorney firms to continue collection efforts including letters, telephone calls, and legal action. Centurion and FSB, respectively, may enter into arrangements with account holders to extend or otherwise change payment schedules to maximize collections. Each of Centurion and FSB may sell its rights to certain collections to its affiliates, collection agencies, or debt buyers.

Generally, it is Centurion’s and FSB’s practices to cause the receivables in an account to be charged off no later than the date on which such account becomes seven contractual payments past due (i.e., approximately 180 days past the first due date), although charge-offs may be made earlier in some circumstances, such as confirmed bankruptcies. The credit evaluation, servicing, charge-off and collection practices of Centurion and FSB may change over time in accordance with its business judgment and applicable law.

Issuer Rate Fees

Centurion and FSB, in their capacities as issuers of American Express cards, receive certain fees (referred to in this prospectus as “Issuer Rate Fees”), collected by the American Express network, in connection with account holder charges for merchandise and services. These Issuer Rate Fees are individually negotiated directly between Centurion or FSB, as applicable, and TRS, and may change from time to time. The amount of Issuer Rate Fees included in finance charge collections for each Monthly Period during calendar year 201[●], as a percentage of total finance charge collections for each such Monthly Period (excluding collections of discount option receivables), ranged from a high of [●]% to a low of [●]%.

Issuer Rate Fees payable to Centurion and FSB will be allocated and sold to RFC III and RFC IV, respectively, for each month in an amount equal to the sum of:

• the product of:

• the rate at which Issuer Rate Fees accrued to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, during the second preceding Monthly Period on credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, multiplied by

• a fraction,

• the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by TRS or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which Issuer Rate Fees did not accrue to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and

• the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by

• new principal receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the accounts that constitute credit accounts, plus

• the product of:

• the rate at which Issuer Rate Fees accrued to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, during the second preceding Monthly Period on charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, multiplied by

• a fraction,

43

• the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by TRS or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which Issuer Rate Fees did not accrue to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and

• the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by

• new principal receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the accounts that constitute charge accounts or lines of credit.

This calculation represents an estimate of the actual Issuer Rate Fees payable to Centurion and FSB from time to time in respect of the receivables and may be greater or less than the actual amount of Issuer Rate Fees so payable. Each of Centurion and FSB will be required, pursuant to the terms of the related purchase agreement, to transfer to RFC III and RFC IV, respectively, and RFC III and RFC IV will in turn be required, pursuant to the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement, to transfer to the trust for the benefit of the certificateholders, these Issuer Rate Fees. Issuer Rate Fees, if any, will be included in collections of finance charge receivables pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement for purposes of determining the amount of finance charge collections and allocating such collections and payments to the certificates. Issuer Rate Fees, if any, will also be included in finance charge receivables for purposes of calculating the average yield on the portfolio of accounts included in the trust applicable to any series of certificates.

[Underwriting Criteria for any Additional Originators]

[If applicable, describe underwriting criteria for accounts that are originated by an originator other than Centurion or FSB.]

Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds from the sale of the certificates offered hereby, before the deduction of expenses, will be paid to the transferors. RFC III will use these proceeds to purchase additional receivables from Centurion or for its general company purposes, including repayment of loans made from time to time by Centurion to RFC III, and RFC IV will use these proceeds to purchase additional receivables from FSB or for its general company purposes, including repayment of loans made from time to time by FSB to RFC IV. Each of Centurion and FSB will use such amounts received from RFC III or RFC IV, respectively, for general corporate purposes.

Maturity Considerations

The pooling and servicing agreement and the Series 201[•]-[•] supplement for this series provide that the Class A certificateholders will not receive payments of principal until the Expected Final Payment Date, or earlier in the event of a Pay-Out Event which results in the commencement of the Early Amortization Period. Class A certificateholders will receive payments of principal on each Special Payment Date until the Class A Invested Amount has been paid in full or the Series 201[•]-[•] Termination Date has occurred. The Class B certificateholders will not begin to receive payments of principal until the final principal payment on the Class A certificates has been made. The holder of the Collateral Interest will not begin to receive payments of principal until the final principal payment on the Class B certificates has been made.

On each Distribution Date during the Controlled Accumulation Period, amounts equal to the least of:

(a)    Available Principal Collections (see “Series Provisions — Principal Payments” in this prospectus) for the related Monthly Period on deposit in the Collection Account,

(b)    the Controlled Deposit Amount, and

(c)    the sum of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount

44

will be deposited in the Principal Funding Account for Series 201[●]-[●] held by the trustee until the Expected Final Payment Date or the first Special Payment Date. See “Series Provisions — Principal Payments” in this prospectus for a discussion of the circumstances under which the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period may be delayed.

Subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, the transferors may, at or after the time at which the Controlled Accumulation Period begins for Series 201[●]-[●], cause the trust to issue another series (or some portion thereof, to the extent that the full principal amount of such other series is not otherwise outstanding at such time) as a paired series with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] to be used to finance the increase in the Transferor Amount caused by the accumulation of principal in the Principal Funding Account with respect to Series 201[●]-[●]. Although no assurances can be given as to whether such other series will be issued and, if issued, the terms thereof, the outstanding principal amount of such series may vary from time to time (whether or not a Pay-Out Event occurs with respect to Series 201[●]-[●], and the interest rate with respect to certificates of such other series may be established on its date of issuance and may be reset periodically. Further, since the terms of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will vary from the terms of such other series, the Pay-Out Events or Reinvestment Events with respect to such other series will vary from the Pay-Out Events with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] and may include Pay-Out Events or Reinvestment Events which are unrelated to the status of the transferors or the servicer or the receivables, such as Pay-Out Events or Reinvestment Events related to the continued availability and rating of certain providers of series enhancement to such other series. If a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event does occur with respect to any such paired series prior to the payment in full of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest, the final payment of principal to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest may be delayed.

Should a Pay-Out Event occur with respect to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest and the Early Amortization Period begin, any amount on deposit:

(a)    in the Principal Funding Account will be paid to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders on the first Special Payment Date, and the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest will be entitled to receive Available Principal Collections on each Distribution Date with respect to such Early Amortization Period as described herein until the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount are paid in full or until the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date occurs, and

(b)    in the Special Funding Account will be released and treated as Shared Principal Collections to the extent needed to cover principal payments due to or for the benefit of any series, including Series 201[●]-[●] entitled to the benefits of Shared Principal Collections. See “Series Provisions — Pay-Out Events” in this prospectus.

The ability of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest to receive payments of principal on the Expected Final Payment Date depends on the payment rates of the receivables, the amount of outstanding receivables, delinquencies, charge-offs and new borrowings on the accounts, the potential issuance by the trust of additional series and the availability of Shared Principal Collections. Monthly payment rates of the receivables may vary because, among other things, account holders may fail to make required minimum payments, may only make payments as low as the minimum required amount or may make payments as high as the entire outstanding balance. Monthly payment rates may also vary due to seasonal purchasing and payment habits of account holders and due to changes in any terms of incentive programs in which account holders participate. See the table entitled “Account Holder Monthly Payment Rates of the Trust Portfolio” under “The Trust Portfolio — Payment Rates” in Annex I to this prospectus. The transferors cannot predict, and no assurance can be given, as to the account holders’ monthly payment rates that will actually occur in any future period, as to the actual rate of payment of principal of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest or whether the terms of any subsequently issued series might have an impact on the amount or timing of any such payment of principal. See “Risk Factors — Payment patterns of account holders may not be consistent over time and variations in these payment patterns may result in reduced payment of principal, or receipt of payment of principal earlier or later than expected” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series” in this prospectus.

45

In addition, the amount of outstanding receivables and the delinquencies, charge-offs and new borrowings on the accounts may vary from month to month due to seasonal variations, the availability of other sources of credit, legal factors, general economic conditions and spending and borrowing habits of individual account holders. There can be no assurance that collections of principal receivables with respect to the Trust Portfolio, and thus the rate at which Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest could expect to receive payments of principal on the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest during an Early Amortization Period or the rate at which the Principal Funding Account could be funded during the Controlled Accumulation Period, will be similar to the historical experience set forth in the table entitled “Account Holder Monthly Payment Rates of the Trust Portfolio” under “The Trust Portfolio — Payment Rates” in Annex I to this prospectus. As described under “Series Provisions — Principal Payments” in this prospectus, the transferors may shorten the Controlled Accumulation Period and, in such event, there can be no assurance that there will be sufficient time to accumulate all amounts necessary to pay the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount on the Expected Final Payment Date. In addition, the trust, as a master trust, has issued, and from time to time may issue, additional series, and there can be no assurance that the terms of any such series might not have an impact on the timing or amount of payments received by the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders. Further, if a Pay-Out Event occurs and the Early Amortization Period begins, the average life and maturity of the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates could be significantly reduced, thereby reducing the anticipated yield on such certificates.

Due to the reasons set forth above, there can be no assurance that deposits in the Principal Funding Account will be made on or prior to the Expected Final Payment Date in an amount equal to the sum of the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount or that the actual number of months elapsed from the date of issuance of the Class A certificates and Class B certificates to their respective final distribution dates will equal the expected number of months. See “Risk Factors — Payment patterns of account holders may not be consistent over time and variations in these payment patterns may result in reduced payment of principal, or receipt of payment of principal earlier or later than expected” in this prospectus.

Series Provisions

On or about [●] [●], 201[●], the trust will issue $[●] of Class A Series 201[●]-[●] [Floating Rate][●]% Asset Backed Certificates and $[●] of Class B Series 201[●]-[●] [Floating Rate][●]% Asset Backed Certificates. In addition, the trust will issue a specified undivided Collateral Interest in the trust assets in an initial amount equal to [●]% of the Initial Invested Amount which will be subordinated to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates as described herein. The Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest will be issued pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement and the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement specifying the principal terms of the certificates, the forms of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus are a part. The following summary describes certain terms applicable to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally” in this prospectus for additional information concerning the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates, the Collateral Interest and the pooling and servicing agreement.

Interest Payments

Interest on the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates will accrue from the closing date on the outstanding principal balances of the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates at the Class A certificate rate and Class B certificate rate, respectively. Interest will be distributed on each Distribution Date, beginning [●] [●], 201[●] to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders in whose names the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates were registered on the relevant Record Date. Interest for any Distribution Date will accrue from and including the preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and including the closing date) to but excluding such Distribution Date. [Interest on the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.]

[Include for floating rate certificates: On each Distribution Date, interest due to the Class A certificateholders will be equal to the product of:

(i)    the actual number of days in the related Interest Period divided by 360,

(ii)   the Class A certificate rate for that Interest Period, and

46

(iii)  the outstanding principal balance 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).

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Class A certificates will equal the interest accrued on the initial principal amount of the Class A certificates at the Class A certificate rate for the initial Interest Period.]

[Include for fixed rate certificates: On each Distribution Date, interest due to the Class A certificateholders will be equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(i)    the Class A certificate rate; and

(ii)    the outstanding principal balance 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).

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Class A certificates will equal $[●].]

Interest due on the Class A certificates but not paid on any Distribution Date will be payable on the next succeeding Distribution Date together with additional interest on such amount at the Class A certificate rate plus 2% per year. Such additional interest shall accrue on the same basis as interest on the Class A certificates, and shall accrue from the Distribution Date such overdue interest became due, to but excluding the Distribution Date on which such additional interest is paid.

The Class A certificates will bear interest from and including the closing date to but excluding [●] [●], 201[●], and during each Interest Period thereafter, at the rate of [●]% per year [above LIBOR prevailing on the related LIBOR Determination Date with respect to each such period].

On each Distribution Date, Class A Outstanding Monthly Interest due but not paid to the Class A certificateholders and any Class A Additional Interest will be paid, to the extent funds are available, to the Class A certificateholders. Payments to the Class A certificateholders in respect of interest on the Class A certificates on any Distribution Date will be funded from Class A Available Funds for the related Monthly Period. To the extent Class A Available Funds allocated to the holders of the Class A certificates for such Monthly Period are insufficient to pay such interest, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and Reallocated Principal Collections allocable first to the Collateral Invested Amount and then the Class B Invested Amount will be used to make such payments.

[Include for floating rate certificates: On each Distribution Date, interest due to the Class B certificateholders will be equal to the product of:

(i)    the actual number of days in the related Interest Period divided by 360,

(ii)   the Class B certificate rate for that Interest Period, and

(iii)  the outstanding principal balance 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).

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Class B certificates will equal the interest accrued on the initial principal amount of the Class B certificates at the Class B certificate rate for the initial Interest Period.]

[Include for fixed rate certificates: On each Distribution Date, interest due to the Class B certificateholders will be equal to one–twelfth of the product of:

(i)    the Class B certificate rate; and

(ii)    the outstanding principal balance 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).

47

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Class B certificates will equal $[●].]

Interest due on the Class B certificates but not paid on any Distribution Date will be payable on the next succeeding Distribution Date together with additional interest on such amount at the Class B certificate rate plus 2% per year. Such additional interest shall accrue on the same basis as interest on the Class B certificates, and shall accrue from the Distribution Date such overdue interest became due, to but excluding the Distribution Date on which such additional interest is paid.

The Class B certificates will bear interest from and including the closing date to but excluding [●] [●], 201[●], and during each Interest Period thereafter, at the rate of [●]% per year [per year above LIBOR prevailing on the related LIBOR Determination Date with respect to each such period].

On each Distribution Date, Class B Outstanding Monthly Interest due but not paid to the Class B certificateholders and any Class B Additional Interest will be paid, to the extent funds are available, to the Class B certificateholders. Payments to the Class B certificateholders in respect of interest on the Class B certificates on any Distribution Date will be funded from Class B Available Funds for the related Monthly Period. To the extent Class B Available Funds allocated to the holders of the Class B certificates for such Monthly Period are insufficient to pay such interest, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Invested Amount and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount or reimburse Class A Investor Charge-Offs will be used to make such payments.

[Include for floating rate certificates: Interest will accrue on the Collateral Senior Invested Amount at the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate from the closing date. Interest will be distributed on each Distribution Date, beginning [●] [●], 201[●], to the holder of the Collateral Interest in an amount equal to the product of:

(i)    the actual number of days in the related Interest Period divided by 360,

(ii)   the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate; for that Interest Period, and

(iii)  the Collateral Senior Invested Amount.

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Collateral Senior Invested Amount will accrue on the Collateral Senior Initial Invested Amount at the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate for the initial Interest Period. The Collateral Interest will also provide for additional interest as provided herein and in the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement.]

[Include for fixed rate certificates: Interest will accrue on the Collateral Senior Invested Amount at the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate from the closing date. Interest will be distributed on each Distribution Date, beginning [●] [●], 201[●], to the holder of the Collateral Interest in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(i)    the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate; and

(ii)   the Collateral Senior Invested Amount.

For the first Distribution Date, however, interest on the Collateral Senior Invested Amount will equal $[●]. The Collateral Interest will also provide for additional interest as provided herein and in the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement.]

On each Distribution Date, Collateral Senior Outstanding Minimum Monthly Interest due but not paid to the holder of the Collateral Interest and any Collateral Senior Additional Interest will be paid, to the extent funds are available, to the holder of the Collateral Interest. Payments to the holder of the Collateral Interest in respect of interest on the Collateral Senior Invested Amount on any Distribution Date will be funded from Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections, but only after such amounts are applied to make certain other payments. To the extent Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to the holder of the Collateral Interest for

48

such Monthly Period are insufficient to pay such interest, Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the portion of Collateral Invested Amount not represented by the Collateral Senior Invested Amount and not required to make certain other payments will be used to make such interest payments to the holder of the Collateral Interest.

[The Class A certificate rate, the Class B certificate rate and the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate applicable to the then current and immediately preceding interest periods may be obtained by telephoning the trustee at its corporate trust office at (212) 815-6258.]

Principal Payments

The Revolving Period begins on the closing date and ends on the day before the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period or, if earlier, the Early Amortization Period. During the Revolving Period, no principal payments will be made to or for the benefit of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders or the holder of the Collateral Interest. Unless a Pay-Out Event has occurred, the Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to begin at the close of business on the last day of the [●] 201[●] Monthly Period, but may be delayed as described herein, and ends on the earliest to occur of:

(a)    the commencement of an Early Amortization Period,

(b)    the payment in full of the Invested Amount and

(c)    the Expected Final Payment Date.

During the Controlled Accumulation Period (on or prior to the Expected Final Payment Date), principal will be deposited in the Principal Funding Account as described below and on the Expected Final Payment Date will be distributed to Class A certificateholders up to the Class A Invested Amount and then to Class B certificateholders up to the Class B Invested Amount.

On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the trustee will deposit in the Principal Funding Account an amount equal to the least of:

(a)    Available 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 sum of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount,

until the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account equals the sum of the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount. Amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding Account will be paid to the Class A certificateholders and, if the amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account exceeds the Class A Invested Amount, to the Class B certificateholders on the Expected Final Payment Date. No principal payments will be made in respect of the Collateral Invested Amount until the final principal payment has been made to the Class A certificateholders and the Class B certificateholders.

The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to begin at the close of business on the last day of the [●] 201[●] Monthly Period. However, the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually begins may be delayed if — after making a calculation prescribed by the pooling and servicing agreement — the servicer determines, in effect, that enough Shared Principal Collections are expected to be available for your series from principal sharing series that will be in their revolving periods during the Controlled Accumulation Period to delay the start of the Controlled Accumulation Period, without affecting the payment in full of the certificates of your series by the Expected Final Payment Date. This calculation will take into account the then-current principal payment rate on the accounts and the principal amount of principal sharing series that are entitled to share principal with
Series 201[●]-[●].

49

If the beginning of your series’ Controlled Accumulation Period is delayed and then a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event occurs with respect to any outstanding principal sharing series, your series’ Controlled Accumulation Period will start on (i) the first day of the Monthly Period immediately succeeding the date on which the Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event occurred or, if sooner, (ii) the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period is then scheduled to start.

If a Pay-Out Event with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] occurs during the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Early Amortization Period will commence and any amount on deposit in the Principal Funding Account will be paid first to the Class A certificateholders on the first Special Payment Date and then, after the Class A Invested Amount is paid in full, to the Class B certificateholders.

If, on the Expected Final Payment Date, monies on deposit in the Principal Funding Account are insufficient to pay the Class A Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount or if there are insufficient collections of principal receivables to pay the Collateral Invested Amount, a Pay-Out Event will occur and the Early Amortization Period will commence.

On each Distribution Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period until the Class A Invested Amount has been paid in full or the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date occurs, the holders of the Class A certificates will be entitled to receive Available Principal Collections in an amount up to the Class A Invested Amount. After payment in full of the Class A Invested Amount, the holders of the Class B certificates will be entitled to receive, on each Distribution Date, Available Principal Collections until the earlier of the date the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full and the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date. After payment in full of the Class B Invested Amount, the holder of the Collateral Interest will be entitled to receive, on each Distribution Date, Available Principal Collections until the earlier of the date the Collateral Invested Amount is paid in full and the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date.

Credit Enhancement

The presence of credit enhancement for a class is intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by certificateholders of such class of the full amount of principal and interest and to decrease the likelihood that such certificateholders will experience losses. However, the credit enhancement, if any, for a series will not provide protection against all risks of loss and will not guarantee repayment of the entire principal balance of the certificates and interest thereon. If losses occur that exceed the amount covered by the credit enhancement or that are not covered by the credit enhancement, certificateholders will bear their allocable share of such losses. In addition, if specific credit enhancement is provided for the benefit of more than one class or series, certificateholders of any such class or series will be subject to the risk that such credit enhancement will be exhausted by the claims of certificateholders of other classes or series.

Subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Collateral Interest

With respect to Series 201[●]-[●], credit enhancement is provided in the form of subordination.

The Class B certificates and the Collateral Interest will be subordinated to the extent necessary to fund certain payments with respect to the Class A certificates. In addition, the Collateral Interest will be subordinated to the extent necessary to fund certain payments with respect to the Class B certificates. Certain principal payments otherwise allocable to the Class B certificateholders may be reallocated to the Class A certificateholders and the Class B Invested Amount may be reduced.

Similarly, certain principal payments otherwise allocable to the Collateral Interest may be reallocated to the Class A certificateholders, the Class B certificateholders and, to the extent the Collateral Invested Amount exceeds the Collateral Senior Invested Amount, the holder of the Collateral Interest, and all such principal reallocations will reduce the Collateral Invested Amount. If the Collateral Invested Amount is reduced to zero, holders of the Class B certificates will bear directly the credit and other risks associated with their interest in the trust. To the extent the Class B Invested Amount is reduced, the percentage of collections of finance charge receivables allocated to the Class B certificateholders in subsequent Monthly Periods will be reduced. Moreover, to the extent the amount of such reduction in the Class B Invested Amount is not reimbursed, the amount of principal distributable to the

50

Class B certificateholders will be reduced. If the Class B Invested Amount is reduced to zero, the Class A certificateholders will bear directly the credit and other risks associated with their undivided interest in the trust. In the event of a reduction in the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount or the Collateral Invested Amount, the amount of principal and interest available to fund payments with respect to the Class A certificates and the Class B certificates will be decreased. See “— Allocation Percentages,” “— Reallocation of Cash Flows” and “— Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” below.

Allocation Percentages

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer will allocate among Series 201[●]-[●] and all other series outstanding all collections of finance charge receivables and principal receivables and the Defaulted Amount with respect to such Monthly Period as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Allocations” in this prospectus and, with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] specifically, as described below.

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, during each Monthly Period, the servicer will allocate to Series 201[●]-[●] its Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections, Series Allocable Principal Collections and Series Allocable Defaulted Amount.

The Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections and the Series Allocable Defaulted Amount for Series 201[●]-[●] with respect to any Monthly Period will be allocated to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest based on the Floating Allocation Percentage and the remainder of such Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections and Series Allocable Defaulted Amount will be allocated to the interest of the holders of the Transferor Certificates.

Investor Finance Charge Collections (which for any Monthly Period is equal to the product of the Floating Allocation Percentage and the Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections) will be reallocated among all series, including Series 201[●]-[●], in the [first/second] group of series known as Group [I/II] as set forth in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Reallocations Among Different Series Within a Reallocation Group” in this prospectus. Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and the Investor Default Amount will be further allocated among the Class A certificateholders, the Class B certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest in accordance with the Class A Floating Percentage, the Class B Floating Percentage and the Collateral Floating Percentage, respectively.

Series Allocable Principal Collections for Series 201[●]-[●] will be allocated to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest based on the Principal Allocation Percentage and the remainder of such Series Allocable Principal Collections will be allocated to the holders of the Transferor Certificates. Such principal collections so allocated to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest will be further allocated to the Class A certificateholders, the Class B certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest based on the Class A Principal Percentage, the Class B Principal Percentage and the Collateral Principal Percentage, respectively.

Principal Funding Account

The servicer will establish and maintain in the name of the trustee, on behalf of the trust, the Principal Funding Account as an Eligible Deposit Account held for the benefit of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders. During the Controlled Accumulation Period, the servicer will transfer collections in respect of principal receivables allocated to Series 201[●]-[●], Shared Principal Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and other amounts described herein to be treated in the same manner as collections of principal receivables from the Collection Account to the Principal Funding Account as described below under “—Application of Collections.”

Unless a Pay-Out Event has occurred and the Early Amortization Period has begun with respect to Series 201[●]-[●], all amounts on deposit in the Principal Funding Account on any Distribution Date (after giving effect to any deposits to, or withdrawals from, the Principal Funding Account to be made on such Distribution Date) will be invested through the following Distribution Date by the trustee at the direction of the servicer in Eligible Investments or, if no such direction is provided, will remain uninvested. On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the interest and other investment income (net of investment expenses and losses) earned on such investments will be withdrawn from the Principal Funding Account and will be treated as a portion of Class A Available Funds. If such investments with respect to any such Distribution Date yield less than the Covered Amount, such shortfall will be funded from Class A Available Funds (including a withdrawal from the Reserve Account, if necessary, as described below under “—Reserve Account”) and from Class B Available Funds.

52

The Available Reserve Account Amount at any time will be limited and there can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be available to fund any such shortfall.

Reserve Account

The servicer will establish and maintain in the name of the trustee, on behalf of the trust, an Eligible Deposit Account for the benefit of the Class A certificateholders, the Class B certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest. The Reserve Account is established to assist with the subsequent distribution of interest on the Class A certificates as provided in this prospectus during the Controlled Accumulation Period. On each Distribution Date from and after the funding of the Reserve Account begins, but prior to the termination of the Reserve Account, the trustee, acting pursuant to the servicer’s instructions, will apply Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] (in the order of priority described below under “—Application of Collections — Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items”) to increase the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account (to the extent such amount is less than the Required Reserve Account Amount).

On each Distribution Date, after giving effect to any deposit to be made to, and any withdrawal to be made from, the Reserve Account on such Distribution Date, the trustee will withdraw from the Reserve Account an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account over the Required Reserve Account Amount and shall distribute such excess to the holder of the Collateral Interest.

If the Reserve Account has not terminated as described below, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Distribution Date (after giving effect to any deposits to, or withdrawals from, the Reserve Account to be made on such Distribution Date) will be invested to mature on or before the following Distribution Date by the trustee at the direction of the servicer in Eligible Investments or, if no such direction is provided, will remain uninvested. The interest and other investment income (net of investment expenses and losses) earned on such investments will be retained in the Reserve Account (to the extent the amount on deposit therein is less than the Required Reserve Account Amount) or deposited in the Collection Account and treated as collections of finance charge receivables allocable to Series 201[●]-[●].

On or before each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period (on or prior to the Expected Final Payment date) and on the first Special Payment Date (if such Special Payment Date occurs on or prior to the Expected Final Payment Date), a withdrawal will be made from the Reserve Account, and the amount of such withdrawal will be deposited in the Collection Account and included in Class A Available Funds in an amount equal to the lesser of:

(a)   the Available Reserve Account Amount for such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date, and

(b)   the amount, if any, by which the Covered Amount for such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date exceeds the investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses), if any, in the Principal Funding Account for the related Distribution Date;

provided that the amount of such withdrawal will be reduced to the extent that funds otherwise would be available to be deposited in the Reserve Account on such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date. On each Distribution Date, the amount available to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account will equal the Available Reserve Account Amount.

The Reserve Account will be terminated following the earliest to occur of:

(a)   the termination of the trust pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement,

(b)   the date on which the Invested Amount is paid in full, and

(c)   if the Controlled Accumulation Period has not commenced, the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] or, if the Controlled Accumulation Period has commenced, the earlier of the first Special Payment Date and the Expected Final Payment Date.

53

Upon the termination of the Reserve Account, all amounts on deposit therein (after giving effect to any withdrawal from the Reserve Account on such date as described above) will be distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest. Any amounts withdrawn from the Reserve Account and distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest as described above will not be available for distribution to the Class A certificateholders and the Class B certificateholders.

Reallocation of Cash Flows

Class A Required Amount

On each Determination Date, the servicer will calculate the Class A Required Amount. If the Class A Required Amount is greater than zero, the following reallocations will occur:

• Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and available for such purpose will be used to fund the Class A Required Amount for the related Distribution Date;

• if such Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections are insufficient to fund the Class A Required Amount, Reallocated Principal Collections allocable first to the Collateral Interest and then to the Class B certificates will be used to fund the remaining Class A Required Amount; and

• if Reallocated Principal Collections for the related Monthly Period, together with Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●], are insufficient to fund the Class A Required Amount for such related Monthly Period, then the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess (but not by more than the Class A Investor Default Amount for such related Distribution Date).

In the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero (but not by more than the excess of the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date over the amount of such reduction, if any, of the Collateral Invested 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 will be reduced to zero and the Class A Invested Amount will 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 amount of the reductions, if any, of the Collateral Invested Amount and the Class B Invested Amount with respect to such Distribution Date as described above). Any such reduction in the Class A Invested Amount may have the effect of slowing or reducing the return of principal and interest to the Class A certificateholders. In such case, the Class A certificateholders will bear directly the credit and other risks associated with their undivided interest in the trust. See “— Defaulted Receivables; Investor Charge-Offs” below.

Reductions of the Class A Invested Amount and Class B Invested Amount will thereafter be reimbursed and the Class A Invested Amount and Class B Invested Amount increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] and available to reimburse such reductions. See “Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” below. When such reductions of the Class A Invested Amount and Class B Invested Amount have been fully reimbursed, reductions of the Collateral Invested Amount will be reimbursed and the Collateral Invested Amount increased in a similar manner.

Class B Required Amount

On each Determination Date, the servicer will calculate the Class B Required Amount. If the Class B Required Amount is greater than zero, the following reallocations will occur:

54

• Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount or reimburse Class A Investor Charge-Offs will be used to fund the Class B Required Amount for the related Distribution Date;

• if such Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections are insufficient to fund the Class B Required Amount, Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Interest and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount will then be used to fund the remaining Class B Required Amount; and

• if such Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Interest for the related Monthly Period are insufficient to fund the remaining Class B Required Amount, then the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such insufficiency (but not by more than the Class B Investor Default Amount for such related Distribution Date).

In the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero (but not by more than the excess of the Class B Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date over the amount of such reduction of the Collateral Invested Amount). Any such reduction in the Class B Invested Amount may have the effect of slowing or reducing the return of principal and interest to the Class B certificateholders. In that case, the Class B certificateholders will bear directly the credit and other risks associated with their undivided interests in the trust. See “— Defaulted Receivables; Investor Charge-Offs” below.

Collateral Senior Required Amount

On each Determination Date, the servicer will calculate the Collateral Senior Required Amount. If the Collateral Senior Required Amount is greater than zero, Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Interest and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount or the Class B Required Amount will be used to fund the Collateral Senior Required Amount. Reallocated Principal Collections will only be applied to fund the Collateral Senior Required Amount to the extent the Collateral Invested Amount will be no lower than the Collateral Senior Invested Amount following the reduction in the Collateral Invested Amount.

Application of Collections

Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items

On each Distribution Date, the trustee, acting pursuant to the servicer’s instructions, will apply the Class A Available Funds, Class B Available Funds and Collateral Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Account in the following priority:

(A) an amount equal to the Class A Available Funds will be distributed in the following priority:

(i)  an amount equal to Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A Outstanding Monthly Interest, plus the amount of any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class A certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Class A certificateholders;

(ii)  if TRS or an affiliate of TRS is no longer the servicer, an amount equal to the Class A Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the servicer on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the servicer;

(iii)  an amount equal to the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date will be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date; and

55

(iv)  the balance, if any, shall constitute Excess Spread and shall be allocated and distributed as described under “—Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” below.

(B)  an amount equal to the Class B Available Funds will be distributed in the following priority:

(i)  an amount equal to Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Outstanding Monthly Interest, plus the amount of any Class B Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Class B certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the Class B certificateholders;

(ii)  if TRS or an affiliate of TRS is no longer the servicer, an amount equal to the Class B Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the servicer on a prior Distribution Date, will be distributed to the servicer; and

(iii)  the balance, if any, shall constitute Excess Spread and shall be allocated and distributed as described under “—Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” below.

(C)  an amount equal to the Collateral Available Funds will be distributed in the following priority:

(i)  if TRS or an affiliate of TRS is no longer the servicer, an amount equal to the Collateral Interest Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Interest Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the servicer on a prior Distribution Date, will be paid to the servicer; and

(ii)  the balance, if any, will constitute a portion of Excess Spread and will be allocated and distributed as described under “—Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections” below.

Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections

On each Distribution Date, the trustee, acting pursuant to the servicer’s instructions, will apply Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] for 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, for such Distribution Date will be used to fund the Class A Required Amount, and if the Class A Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●], such Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections will be applied:

• first, to pay shortfalls in the payment of amounts described in clause (A)(i) under “—Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items” in this prospectus,

• second, to pay shortfalls in the payment of amounts described in clause (A)(ii) under “—Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items” in this prospectus, and

• third, to pay shortfalls in the payment of amounts described in clause (A)(iii) under “—Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items” in this prospectus;

(b)  an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Class A Investor Charge-Offs that have not been previously reimbursed will be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date as described under “—Payments of Principal” in this prospectus;

(c)  an amount equal to the interest accrued with respect to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Class B certificates not otherwise distributed to the Class B certificateholders on such Distribution Date will accrue at the Class B certificate rate and be paid to Class B certificateholders, except that any such interest previously due but not paid will accrue at the Class B certificate rate plus 2% per year;

56

(d)  an amount equal to the Class B Required Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date will be (I) used to fund the Class B Required Amount and applied first, to pay shortfalls in the payment of amounts described in clause (B)(i) under “—Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items” in this prospectus, and second, to pay shortfalls in the payment of amounts described in clause (B)(ii) under “—Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items” in this prospectus and then (II) treated up to the Class B Investor Default Amount, as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(e)  an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Class B Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of Class B Invested Amount (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions that have not been previously reimbursed) will be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(f)  an amount equal to Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest on a prior Distribution Date and any Collateral Senior Additional Interest will be distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest;

(g)  an amount equal to the Monthly Servicing Fee due but not paid to the servicer on such Distribution Date or a prior Distribution Date shall be paid to the servicer;

(h)  an amount equal to the Collateral Default Amount shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(i)  an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of Collateral Invested Amount (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions that have not been previously reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(j)  on each Distribution Date from and after the date on which the Reserve Account is funded, but prior to the date on which the Reserve Account terminates as described under “— Reserve Account” above, an amount up to the excess, if any, of the Required Reserve Account Amount over the Available Reserve Account Amount shall be deposited into the Reserve Account; and

(k)  the balance, if any, will be distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest.

Payments of Principal

On each Distribution Date, the trustee, acting pursuant to the servicer’s instructions, will distribute Available Principal Collections (see “— Principal Payments” above) on deposit in the Collection Account in the following priority:

(i)  on each Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period, all such Available Principal Collections will be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series” in this prospectus;

(ii)  on each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, all such Available Principal Collections will be distributed or deposited in the following priority:

(A)  an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Controlled Deposit Amount and (y) the sum of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount will be deposited in the Principal Funding Account;

57

(B)   for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full, an amount up to the Collateral Invested Amount will be paid to the holder of the Collateral Interest; and

(C)  for each Distribution Date, the balance, if any, of Available Principal Collections not applied pursuant to paragraphs (A) and (B) (as applicable) above will be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series” in this prospectus; and

(iii)  on each Distribution Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, all such Available Principal Collections will be distributed as follows:

(A)  an amount up to the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount will be distributed to the Class A certificateholders;

(B)  for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class A Invested Amount is paid in full, an amount up to the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount will be distributed to the Class B certificateholders;

(C)  for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full, an amount up to the Collateral Invested Amount will be distributed to the holder of the Collateral Interest; and

(D)  for each Distribution Date, the balance, if any, of Available Principal Collections not applied pursuant to paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) (as applicable) above will be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied as described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series” in this prospectus.

Defaulted Receivables; Investor Charge-Offs

On each Determination Date, the servicer will calculate the Investor Default Amount for the related Distribution Date. An amount equal to the Class A Investor Default Amount for each Distribution Date will be paid from Class A Available Funds, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and from Reallocated Principal Collections, if applicable, and applied as described above in “—Application of Collections — Payment of Interest, Fees and Other Items.” An amount equal to the Class B Investor Default Amount for each Distribution Date will be paid from Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] and from Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Invested Amount, if applicable, and applied as described above in “—Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections.”

Class A Investor Charge-Offs

On each Distribution Date, if the Class A Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (i) Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] and (ii) Reallocated Principal Collections, the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more than 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 will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount will 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 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 will be reduced to zero, and the Class A Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount by which

58

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 amount of the reductions, if any, of the Collateral Invested Amount and of the Class B Invested Amount with respect to such Distribution Date as described above. A reduction in the Class A Invested Amount as described in the preceding sentence is a “Class A Investor Charge-Off.” Such Class A Investor Charge-Offs will reduce the amounts allocable and available for payment and may have the effect of slowing or reducing the return of principal to your series. If the Class A Invested Amount has been reduced by the amount of any Class A Investor Charge-Offs, it will thereafter be increased on any Distribution Date (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate Class A Investor Charge-Offs) by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] available for such purpose as described above under “— Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections.”

Reductions in Class B Invested Amount and Collateral Invested Amount

On each Distribution Date, if the Class B Required Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (i) Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount or reimburse Class A Investor Charge-Offs, and (ii) Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Interest and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount, then the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more than 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 negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount will 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 for such Distribution Date. A reduction in the Class B Invested Amount as described in the preceding sentence is a “Class B Investor Charge-Off.”

The Class B Invested Amount will also be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections in excess of the Collateral Invested Amount and the amount of any portion of the Class B Invested Amount allocated to the Class A certificates to avoid a reduction in the Class A Invested Amount. Any reductions in the Class B Invested Amount will reduce the amounts allocable and available for payment and may have the effect of slowing or reducing the return of principal to your series. The Class B Invested Amount will thereafter be increased on any Distribution Date (but not by an amount in excess of the amount of such reductions in the Class B Invested Amount) by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] available for such purpose as described above under “—Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections.”

On each Distribution Date, if the Collateral Default Amount for such Distribution Date exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] which is allocated and available to fund such amount as described above under “—Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections,” the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess but not by more than the lesser of the Collateral Default Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount for such Distribution Date. A reduction in the Collateral Invested Amount as described in the preceding sentence is a “Collateral Charge-Off.”

The Collateral Interest will also be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections and the amount of any portion of the Collateral Invested Amount allocated to the Class A certificates to avoid a reduction in the Class A Invested Amount or to the Class B certificates to avoid a reduction in the Class B Invested Amount. Any reductions in the Collateral Invested Amount will reduce the amounts allocable and available for payment and may have the effect of slowing or reducing the amount of payments to your series. The Collateral Invested Amount will thereafter be increased on any Distribution Date (but not by an amount in excess of the amount of such reductions in the Collateral Invested Amount) by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[●]-[●] allocated and available for that purpose as described above under “—Application of Collections — Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections.”

59

Paired Series

Series 201[●]-[●] may be paired with one or more other series (each called a “paired series”) at or after the commencement of the Controlled Accumulation Period if the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. As funds are accumulated in the Principal Funding Account, the invested amount in the trust of such paired series will increase by up to a corresponding amount. Upon payment in full of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates, assuming that there have been no unreimbursed charge-offs with respect to any related paired series, the aggregate invested amount of such related paired series will have been increased by an amount up to an aggregate amount equal to the Invested Amount paid to or deposited for the benefit of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders after the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates were paired with the paired series. The issuance of a paired series will be subject to the conditions described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — New Issuances” in this prospectus. There can be no assurance, however, that the terms of any paired series might not have an impact on the timing or amount of payments received by the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders. See “Risk Factors — Issuances of additional series by the trust may adversely affect your certificates” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Paired Series” in this prospectus.

Additional Issuances of Series 201[●]-[●] Certificates

The pooling and servicing agreement allows the transferors to “reopen” or later increase the amount of an outstanding series, including Series 201[●]-[●], without notice by issuing and selling additional certificates subject to the same terms as the original certificates of the related outstanding series. Any additional Series 201[●]-[●] certificates will be treated, for all purpose, like the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates that we are offering in this prospectus, except that any new Series 201[●]-[●] certificates may begin to bear interest on a later date. Additional Series 201[●]-[●] certificates may be issued only if the conditions to issuance described in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — New Issuances” in this prospectus are satisfied.

Pay-Out Events

The Pay-Out Events with respect to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest will include each of the following:

(a)    the occurrence of an insolvency event (as such term is defined in this prospectus) with respect to any transferor or other holder of the original transferor certificate;

(b)    the trust becomes an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;

(c)    a failure on the part of any transferor:

(i)    to make any payment or deposit required under the pooling and servicing agreement or the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement within five Business Days after the day such payment or deposit is required to be made; or

(d)    any representation or warranty made by any transferor in the pooling and servicing agreement or the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement or any information required to be given by any transferor to the trustee to identify the accounts proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or delivered and continues to be incorrect in any material respect for a period of 60 days after written notice and as a result of which the interests of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest are materially and adversely affected; provided, however, that a Pay-Out Event shall not be deemed to occur thereunder if a transferor has repurchased the related receivables or all such receivables, if applicable, during such period (or such longer

60

period as the trustee may specify not to exceed an additional 60 days) in accordance with the provisions of the pooling and servicing agreement;

(e)    a failure by a transferor to convey receivables in additional accounts to the trust within five Business Days after the day on which it is required to convey such receivables pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement or the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement;

(i)    any transferor is unable for any reason to transfer receivables to the trust in accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement or the Series 201[●]-[●] supplement;

(j)    the occurrence of an insolvency event as defined in the related purchase agreement relating to any account owner; and

(k)    any account owner is unable for any reason to transfer receivables to the related transferor in accordance with the related purchase agreement.

In the case of any event described above in subparagraph (c), (d) or (f), after the applicable grace period, if any, set forth in such subparagraphs, either the trustee or the holders of Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the Collateral Interest by notice then given in writing to the transferors and the servicer (and to the trustee if given by the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest) may declare that a Pay-Out Event has occurred with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] as of the date of such notice, and, in the case of any event described in subparagraph (b), (e), (g) or (h), a Pay-Out Event shall occur with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] without any notice or other action on the part of the trustee immediately upon the occurrence of such event.

In the case of any event described in subparagraph (a), (i), (j) or (k), a Pay-Out Event shall occur with respect to Series 201[●]-[●] without any notice or other action on the part of the trustee, the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders or the holder of the Collateral Interest immediately upon the occurrence of such event (or, in the case of clause (y) below, immediately following the expiration of the 60-day grace period), but only to the extent that:

(x)    as of the date of such event, the average of the Monthly Receivables Percentage for the immediately preceding three Monthly Periods is equal to or greater than 10%, or

(y)    as of the date of such event, the average of the Monthly Receivables Percentage for the immediately preceding three Monthly Periods is less than 10%, and within 60 days following the occurrence of the related insolvency event or inability to transfer receivables, the aggregate amount of principal receivables outstanding in the trust does not at least equal the Required Minimum Principal Balance (without giving effect to principal receivables attributable to the transferor or the account owner with respect to which the insolvency event or the inability to transfer receivables has occurred).

[If applicable describe Reinvestment Events]

61

Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses

The share of the Servicing Fee allocable to Series 201[●]-[●] for any Distribution Date, called the Monthly Servicing Fee, will be equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(a)    the Servicing Fee Rate, and

(b)    the Servicing Base Amount.

The share of the Monthly Servicing Fee allocable to the Class A certificateholders for any Distribution Date, called the Class A Servicing Fee, shall be equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(a)    the Class A Floating Percentage,

(b)    the Servicing Fee Rate, and

(c)    the Servicing Base Amount.

The share of the Monthly Servicing Fee allocable to the Class B certificateholders for any Distribution Date, called the Class B Servicing Fee, shall be equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(a)    the Class B Floating Percentage,

(b)    the Servicing Fee Rate, and

(c)    the Servicing Base Amount.

The share of the Monthly Servicing Fee allocable to the holder of the Collateral Interest for any Distribution Date, called the Collateral Interest Servicing Fee, shall be equal to one-twelfth of the product of:

(a)    the Collateral Floating Percentage,

(b)    the Servicing Fee Rate, and

(c)    the Servicing Base Amount.

The remainder of the Servicing Fee shall be paid by the holders of the Transferor Certificates or the certificateholders of other series (as provided in the related supplements). In no event will the trust, the trustee, the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders or the holder of the Collateral Interest be liable for the share of the Servicing Fee to be paid by the holders of the Transferor Certificates or the certificateholders of any other series.

The servicer will pay from its servicing compensation certain expenses incurred in connection with servicing the receivables including, without limitation, payment of the fees and disbursements of the trustee, paying agent, transfer agent and registrar and independent accountants

Optional Repurchase

So long as a transferor is the servicer or an affiliate of the servicer, on any Distribution Date occurring on or after the date that the sum of the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount is reduced to an amount equal to 5% of the initial outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Class A certificates, the Class B certificates and the Collateral Interest or less, that transferor will have the option to repurchase the Class A certificateholders’ interest, the Class B certificateholders’ interest and the Collateral Interest. The purchase price will be equal to the sum of the Adjusted Invested Amount and accrued and unpaid interest on the Class A certificates, the Class B certificates and the Collateral Interest (and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to interest amounts that were due but not paid on such Distribution Date or any prior Distribution Date) through

62

(a) if the day on which such repurchase occurs is a Distribution Date, the day preceding such Distribution Date or (b) if the day on which such repurchase occurs is not a Distribution Date, the day preceding the Distribution Date next following such day. Such proceeds will be allocated first to pay amounts due to the Class A certificateholders, then, to pay amounts due to the Class B certificateholders and finally, to pay amounts due to the holder of the Collateral Interest. Following any such repurchase, the Receivables will be assigned to the transferors and the Class A certificateholders, the Class B certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest will have no further rights with respect thereto. In the event that the transferors fail for any reason to deposit the aggregate purchase price for such receivables, the trust will continue to hold the receivables and payments will continue to be made to the Class  A certificateholders, Class B certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest as described herein.

Series Termination

If on the Distribution Date which is two months prior to the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date, the Invested Amount (after giving effect to all changes therein on such date) exceeds zero, the servicer will, within the 40-day period beginning on such date, solicit bids for the sale of interests in the principal receivables or certain principal receivables, together in each case with the related finance charge receivables, in an amount equal to the Invested Amount at the close of business on the last day of the Monthly Period preceding the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date (after giving effect to all distributions required to be made on the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date other than from the proceeds of the sale). No transferor, any affiliate thereof, any agent thereof or any other party consolidated with such transferor for purposes of United States generally accepted accounting principles will be entitled to participate in such bidding process or to purchase the receivables; provided, however, that, to the extent the holder of the Collateral Interest is not a transferor, an affiliate thereof, an agent thereof or any other party consolidated with a transferor for purposes of United States generally accepted accounting principles, the holder of the Collateral Interest may participate in such bidding process. Upon the expiration of such 40-day period, the trustee will determine (a) which bid is the highest cash purchase offer and (b) the amount which otherwise would be available in the Collection Account on the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date for distribution to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificate-holders and the holder of the Collateral Interest. The servicer will sell such receivables on the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date to the bidder who provided the highest cash purchase offer and will deposit the proceeds of such sale in the Collection Account for allocation (together with the amount which otherwise would be available in the Collection Account on the Series 201[●]-[●] Termination Date for distribution to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholders and the holder of the Collateral Interest) to Series 201[●]-[●].

Reports

No later than the second Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, the servicer will forward to the trustee, the paying agent, the transferors, each Rating Agency and the holder of the Collateral Interest, a monthly report prepared by the servicer setting forth certain information with respect to the trust, the Class A certificates, the Class B certificates and the Collateral Interest, including:

(a)    the aggregate amount of principal receivables and finance charge receivables in the trust as of the end of such Monthly Period;

(b)    the Class A Invested Amount, the Class B Invested Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount at the close of business on the last day of the preceding Monthly Period;

(c)    the Series Allocation Percentage, the Floating Allocation Percentage, the Class A Floating Percentage, the Class B Floating Percentage and the Collateral Floating Percentage and the Principal Allocation Percentage, the Class A Principal Percentage, the Class B Principal Percentage and the Collateral Principal Percentage;

(d)    the amount of collections of principal receivables and finance charge receivables processed during the related Monthly Period and the portion thereof allocated to the interest of the holders of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and the holder of the Collateral Interest;

(e)    the aggregate outstanding balance of accounts that were 31, 61, 91 and 121 days or more delinquent as of the end of such Monthly Period;

63

(f)    the Class A Investor Default Amount, the Class B Investor Default Amount and the Collateral Default Amount and the Defaulted Amount with respect to the related Distribution Date;

(g)    the aggregate amount, if any, of Class A Investor Charge-Offs, Class B Investor Charge-Offs, any reductions in the Class B Invested Amount pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of Class B Invested Amount, and the amounts by which the Collateral Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of Collateral Invested Amount and any Class A Investor Charge-Offs, Class B Investor Charge-Offs or Collateral Charge-Offs reimbursed on the related Monthly Period, for such Monthly Period;

(h)    the Monthly Servicing Fee, Class A Servicing Fee, Class B Servicing Fee and Collateral Interest Servicing Fee for such Monthly Period;

(i)    the Series Adjusted Portfolio Yield for such Monthly Period;

(j)    the Base Rate for such Monthly Period;

(k)    Reallocated Principal Collections; and

(1)    Shared Principal Collections.

Description of the Certificates

General

The certificates will evidence undivided beneficial interests in the trust assets allocated to such certificates, representing the right to receive from such trust assets funds up to (but not in excess of) the amounts required to make payments of interest and principal in the manner described below. The certificates will be available for purchase in minimum denominations of $[1,000] and integral multiples thereof in book-entry form.

Payments of interest and principal will be made on each related interest payment date to the certificateholders in whose names the certificates were registered on the last day of the calendar month preceding such interest payment date, known as the record date.

Book-Entry Registration

The certificates offered by this prospectus will be delivered in book-entry form. This means that, except in the limited circumstances described in “— Definitive Certificates” below, purchasers of certificates will not be entitled to have the certificates registered in their names. Furthermore, these purchasers will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the certificates in definitive paper form. Instead, upon issuance, all the certificates of a class will be represented by one or more fully registered permanent global certificates, without interest coupons.

Each global certificate will be deposited with a securities depository named The Depository Trust Company and will be registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co. No global certificate representing book-entry certificates may be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC, or by a nominee of DTC to another nominee of DTC. Thus, DTC or its nominee will be the only registered holder of the certificates and will be considered the sole representative of the beneficial owners of certificates for purposes of the pooling and servicing agreement.

The registration of the global certificates in the name of Cede & Co. will not affect beneficial ownership and is performed merely to facilitate subsequent transfers. The book-entry system, which is also the system through which most publicly traded common stock is held, is used because it eliminates the need for physical movement of securities. The laws of some jurisdictions, however, may require some purchasers to take physical delivery of their certificates in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to own or transfer book entry certificates.

64

Purchasers of certificates in the United States may hold interests in the global certificates through DTC, either directly, if they are participants in that system — such as a bank, brokerage house or other institution that maintains securities accounts for its customers with DTC or its nominee — or otherwise indirectly through a participant in DTC. Purchasers of certificates in Europe may hold interests in the global certificates through Clearstream Banking or through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear system.

Because DTC will be the only registered owner of the global certificates, Clearstream Banking and Euroclear will hold positions through their respective U.S. depositories, which in turn will hold positions on the books of DTC.

As long as the certificates are in book-entry form, they will be evidenced solely by entries on the books of DTC, its participants and any indirect participants. DTC will maintain records showing:

• the ownership interests of its participants, including the U.S. depositories; and

• all transfers of ownership interests between its participants.

The participants and indirect participants, in turn, will maintain records showing:

• the ownership interests of their customers, including indirect participants, that hold the certificates through those participants; and

• all transfers between these persons.

Thus, each beneficial owner of a book-entry certificate will hold its certificate indirectly through a hierarchy of intermediaries, with DTC at the “top” and the beneficial owner’s own securities intermediary at the “bottom.”

The trust, the trustee and their agents will not be liable for the accuracy of, and are not responsible for maintaining supervising or reviewing DTC’s records or any participant’s records relating to book-entry certificates. The trust, the trustee and their agents also will not be responsible or liable for payments made on account of the book-entry certificates.

Until definitive certificates are issued to the beneficial owners as described under “—Definitive Certificates” in this prospectus, all references to “holders” of certificates means DTC. The trust, the trustee and any paying agent or transfer agent and registrar may treat DTC as the absolute owner of the certificates for all purposes.

Beneficial owners of book-entry certificates should realize that the trust will make all distributions of principal and interest on the certificates to DTC and will send all required reports and notices solely to DTC as long as DTC is the registered holder of the certificates. DTC and the participants are generally required by law to receive and transmit all distributions, notices and directions from the trustee to the beneficial owners through the chain of intermediaries.

Similarly, the trustee will accept notices and directions solely from DTC. Therefore, in order to exercise any rights of a holder of certificates under the pooling and servicing agreement, each person owning a beneficial interest in the certificates must rely on the procedures of DTC and, in some cases, Clearstream Banking or Euroclear. If the beneficial owner is not a participant in that system, then it must rely on the procedures of the participant through which that person owns its interest. DTC has advised the trust that it will take actions under the pooling and servicing agreement only at the direction of its participants, which in turn will act only at the direction of the beneficial owners. Some of these actions, however, may conflict with actions it takes at the direction of other participants and beneficial owners.

Notices and other communications by DTC to participants, by participants to indirect participants, and by participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them.

Beneficial owners of book-entry certificates should also realize that book-entry certificates may be more difficult to pledge because of the lack of a physical certificate. Beneficial owners may also experience delays in

65

receiving distributions on their certificates since distributions will initially be made to DTC and must be transferred through the chain of intermediaries to the beneficial owner’s account.

The Depository Trust Company

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law and is a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law. DTC is also a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC was created to hold securities deposited by its participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among its participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of the participants, thus eliminating the need for physical movement of securities. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Clearstream Banking

Clearstream Banking is registered as a bank in Luxembourg and is regulated by the Banque Centrale du Luxembourg, the Luxembourg Central Bank, which supervises Luxembourg banks. Clearstream Banking holds securities for its customers and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions by electronic book-entry transfers between their accounts.

Indirect access to Clearstream Banking is available to other institutions that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with an account holder of Clearstream Banking.

Euroclear

Euroclear was created in 1968 to hold securities for participants of Euroclear and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear participants through simultaneous electronic bookentry delivery against payment. This system eliminates the need for physical movement of securities and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear includes various other services, including securities lending and borrowing and interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. The Euroclear system is operated by Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V. The Euroclear operator conducts all operations. All Euroclear securities clearance accounts and Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear operator. The Euroclear operator establishes policy for Euroclear on behalf of Euroclear participants. Euroclear participants include banks, including central banks, securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the underwriters. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear participant, either directly or indirectly.

Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System and applicable Belgian law. These Terms and Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear, and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific securities to specific securities

clearance accounts. The Euroclear operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear participants, and has no record of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear participants.

Distributions on Book-Entry Certificates

The trust will make distributions of principal of and interest on book-entry certificates to DTC. These payments will be made in immediately available funds by the trust’s paying agent, The Bank of New York Mellon, at the office of the paying agent in New York City that the trust designates for that purpose.

In the case of principal payments, the global certificates must be presented to the paying agent in time for the paying agent to make those payments in immediately available funds in accordance with its normal payment procedures.

Upon receipt of any payment of principal of or interest on a global certificate, DTC will immediately credit the accounts of its participants on its book-entry registration and transfer system. DTC will credit those accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to the participants’ respective beneficial interests in the stated principal amount of the global certificate as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by participants to beneficial owners of book-entry certificates will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of those participants.

Distributions on book-entry certificates held beneficially through Clearstream Banking will be credited to cash accounts of Clearstream Banking customers in accordance with its rules and procedures, to the extent received by its U.S. depository.

Distribution on book-entry certificates held beneficially through Euroclear will be credited to the cash accounts of Euroclear participants in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, to the extent received by its U.S. depository.

In the event definitive certificates are issued, distributions of principal of and interest on definitive certificates will be made directly to the holders of the definitive certificates in whose names the definitive certificates were registered at the close of business on the related Record Date.

Global Clearance and Settlement Procedures

Initial settlement for the certificates will be made in immediately available funds. Secondary market trading between DTC participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC’s rules and will be settled in immediately available funds using DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System. Secondary market trading between Clearstream Banking customers and/or Euroclear participants will occur in the ordinary way in accordance with the applicable rules and operating procedures of Clearstream Banking and Euroclear. Such secondary market trading will be settled using the procedures applicable to conventional eurobonds in immediately available funds.

Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream Banking customers or Euroclear participants, on the other, will be effected in DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of the relevant European international clearing system by the U.S. depositories. However, cross-market transactions of this type will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in that system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines, European time. The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depository to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving certificates in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Clearstream Banking customers and Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to DTC.

67

Because of time-zone differences, credits to certificates in Clearstream Banking or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a DTC participant will be made during subsequent securities settlement processing and will be credited the business day following a DTC settlement date. The credits to or any transactions in the certificates settled during processing will be reported to the relevant Euroclear participants or Clearstream Banking customers on that business day. Cash received in Clearstream Banking or Euroclear as a result of sales of certificates by or through a Clearstream Banking customer or a Euroclear participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date, but will be available in the relevant Clearstream Banking or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.

Although DTC, Clearstream Banking and Euroclear have agreed to these procedures in order to facilitate transfers of certificates among participants of DTC, Clearstream Banking and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform these procedures and these procedures may be discontinued at any time.

Definitive Certificates

Beneficial owners of book-entry certificates may exchange those certificates for definitive certificates registered in their name only if:

• DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for the global certificates or ceases to be a registered “clearing agency” and the trust is unable to find a qualified replacement for DTC;

• the transferors, at their option, elect to terminate the book-entry system through DTC; or

• after the occurrence of a servicer default, certificate owners evidencing not less than 50% of the unpaid outstanding principal amount of the certificates advise the trustee and DTC that the continuation of a book-entry system is no longer in the best interests of those certificate owners.

If any of these three events occurs, DTC is required to notify the beneficial owners through the chain of intermediaries that the definitive certificates are available. The appropriate global certificate will then be exchangeable in whole for definitive certificates in registered form of like tenor and of an equal aggregate stated principal amount, in specified denominations. Definitive certificates will be registered in the name or names of the person or persons specified by DTC in a written instruction to the registrar of the certificates. DTC may base its written instruction upon directions it receives from its participants. Thereafter, the holders of the definitive certificates will be recognized as the “holders” of the certificates under the pooling and servicing agreement.

Definitive certificates will be transferable and exchangeable at the offices of the transfer agent and registrar, which will initially be the trustee. No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the transfer agent and registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection with that registration.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally

Conveyance of Receivables

RFC III and RFC IV, as transferors to the trust (and Centurion and RFC II, as former transferors to the trust), have sold and assigned to the trust their interest in the receivables in the accounts existing at the applicable cut-off dates, all receivables thereafter created from time to time under the accounts, all Recoveries allocable to the trust and the proceeds of all of the foregoing. From time to time, RFC III and RFC IV may assign to the trust the receivables in designated Additional Accounts existing at the close of business on the applicable cut-off-dates. In addition, each of RFC III and RFC IV may assign to the trust all insurance proceeds, all Recoveries allocable to the trust, and the proceeds of all of the foregoing.

68

Representations and Warranties

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, RFC III and RFC IV make representations and warranties to the trust and the trustee about the receivables, to the effect, among other things, that:

(i)          as of the applicable cut-off date with respect to the accounts, the list of accounts and information concerning the accounts provided by it is accurate and complete in all material respects, with certain permitted exceptions;

(ii)         each receivable conveyed by it to the trust has been conveyed free and clear of any lien or encumbrance, except liens permitted by the pooling and servicing agreement;

(iii)         all governmental authorizations, consents, orders or approvals required to be obtained, effected or given by it in connection with the conveyance of receivables to the trust have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect;

(iv)         as of each applicable selection date, each account was an Eligible Account;

(v)         as of each applicable selection date, each of the receivables then existing in the accounts was an Eligible Receivable; and

(vi)         as of the date of creation of any new receivable, such receivable is an Eligible Receivable.

If a transferor materially breaches any representation and warranty described in this paragraph, and such breach remains uncured for 60 days (or such longer period as to which the servicer and the trustee agree) after the earlier to occur of the discovery of the breach by such transferor and receipt of written notice of the breach by such transferor, and the breach has a material adverse effect on the certificateholders’ interest in such receivable, all of the Ineligible Receivables will be reassigned to such transferor on the terms and conditions set forth below. In such case, the account will no longer be included as an account in the Trust Portfolio.

An Ineligible Receivable will be reassigned to the related transferor on or before the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises by the servicer deducting the portion of such Ineligible Receivable that is a principal receivable from the aggregate amount of principal receivables used to calculate the Transferor Amount. In the event that the exclusion of an Ineligible Receivable from the calculation of the Transferor Amount would cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount, on the Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises, such transferor will make a deposit into the Special Funding Account in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount by which the Transferor Amount would be reduced below the Required Transferor Amount.

The reassignment of any Ineligible Receivable to the related transferor, and the obligation of such transferor to make deposits into the Special Funding Account as described in the preceding paragraph, is the sole remedy respecting any breach of the representations and warranties described in the preceding paragraphs with respect to such receivable available to the certificateholders or the trustee on behalf of the certificateholders.

Each transferor will also make representations and warranties to the trust to the effect, among other things, that, as of each series closing date:

(i)         it is a corporation or a limited liability company, as applicable;

(ii)         it has the authority to consummate the transactions contemplated by the pooling and servicing agreement and each supplement; and

(iii)         the pooling and servicing agreement and each supplement constitute:

(a)         a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of such transferor and

(b)         a valid sale, transfer and assignment to the trust of all right, title and interest of such transferor in the receivables, whether then existing or thereafter created and the proceeds thereof (including proceeds in any of the accounts established for the benefit of the certificateholders) and in recoveries or the grant of a first-priority perfected security interest under the applicable UCC in such receivables and the proceeds thereof (including proceeds in any of the accounts established for the benefit of the certificateholders) and in Recoveries, which is effective as to each receivable then existing on such date.

In the event of a material breach of any of the representations and warranties described in the above paragraphs that has a material adverse effect on the certificateholders’ interest in the receivables or the availability of the proceeds thereof to the trust (which determination will be made without regard to whether funds are then available

69

pursuant to any series enhancement), either the trustee or certificateholders holding certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding certificates, by written notice to the transferors and the servicer (and to the trustee if given by the certificateholders), may direct the related transferor to accept the reassignment of the receivables in the trust within 60 days of such notice, or within such longer period specified in such notice. Such transferor will be obligated to accept the reassignment of such receivables on the Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises. Such reassignment will not be required to be made, however, if:

(i)         at the end of such applicable period, the representations and warranties shall then be true and correct in all material respects, and

(ii)         any material adverse effect caused by such breach shall have been cured.

The price for such reassignment will be an amount equal to the sum of the amounts specified therefor with respect to each series in the related supplement. The payment of such reassignment price in immediately available funds will be considered a payment in full of the certificateholders’ interest and such funds will be distributed upon presentation and surrender of the certificates. If the trustee or certificateholders give a notice as provided above, the obligation of the related transferor to make any such deposit will constitute the sole remedy respecting a breach of the representations and warranties available to certificateholders or the trustee on behalf of certificateholders. See “Description of the Purchase Agreements — Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus.

On each series closing date, the trustee will authenticate and deliver one or more certificates representing the series or class of certificates, in each case against payment to the transferors of the net proceeds of the sale of the certificates. In the case of the first series closing date, the trustee delivered the original transferor certificate, representing the Transferors’ Interest.

In connection with each transfer of receivables to the trust, the computer records relating to such receivables will be marked to indicate that those receivables have been conveyed to the trust. In addition, the trustee will be provided with a computer file or a microfiche list containing a true and complete list showing for each account, as of the applicable cut-off date:

(i)         its account number and

(ii)         except in the case of new accounts and the list delivered on the substitution date, the aggregate amount of receivables in such account.

The transferors, Centurion and FSB will retain and will not deliver to the trustee any other records or agreements relating to the accounts or the receivables, as applicable. Except as set forth above, the records and agreements relating to the accounts and the receivables will not be segregated from those relating to other credit accounts and receivables, and the physical documentation relating to the accounts or receivables will not be stamped or marked to reflect the transfer of receivables to the transferor or the trust. Each transferor has filed and is required to file UCC financing statements for the transfer of the receivables to the trust meeting the requirements of applicable state law. See “Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables” in this prospectus.

It is not required or anticipated that the trustee will make any initial or periodic general examination of the receivables or any records relating to the receivables for the purpose of establishing the presence or absence of defects, the compliance by Centurion, FSB and the transferors of their respective representations and warranties or for any other purpose. In addition, it is not anticipated or required that the trustee will make any initial or periodic general examination of the servicer for the purpose of establishing the compliance by the servicer with its representations or warranties or the performance by the servicer of its obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement, any supplement or for any other purpose. The servicer, however, will deliver to the trustee on or before March 31 of each calendar year an opinion of counsel with respect to the validity of the interest of the trust in and to the receivables and certain other components of the trust.

70

Resolution of Repurchase Disputes

As discussed under “Description of the Purchase Agreements — Repurchase Obligations” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties,” upon the breach of certain representations or warranties made on the receivables or the related accounts, the sponsors or the transferors, as applicable, may be required to accept the reassignment of the receivables with respect to a which breach occurred. If the trustee or any Series 201[●]-[●] certificateholder (the “requesting party”) requests that a sponsor or a transferor, as applicable (the “representing party”), accept reassignment of any receivable pursuant to the applicable purchase agreement or the pooling and servicing agreement due to an alleged breach of a representation or warranty, and the repurchase request has not been fulfilled or otherwise resolved within 180 days of the receipt of notice of such request by the sponsor or transferor, as applicable, then the requesting party will have the right to refer the matter, at its discretion, to either mediation or third-party arbitration, and the representing party will agree to the selected resolution method.

The requesting party must provide the representing party written notice of its intention to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration within 30 days of the conclusion of the 180-day period described above. If the requesting party is a certificateholder but is not a record holder (including if such certificateholder owns a beneficial interest in a certificates in book-entry form), in connection with submitting a repurchase request, such requesting party will be required to provide (i) a written certification that it is a beneficial owner of certificates and (ii) one other form of documentation, such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from a broker or dealer or other similar document to verify that the certificateholder is, in fact, a beneficial owner of certificates.

If the requesting party selects mediation as the resolution method, the mediation will be administered by a nationally recognized mediation association, and the fees and expenses of the mediation shall be allocated as mutually agreed upon by the representing party and the requesting party as part of the mediation. The mediator(s) will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”).

If the requesting party selects third-party arbitration as the resolution method, the third-party arbitration will be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration association mutually agreed upon by the representing party and the requesting party. The arbitrator(s) will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the AAA. The arbitrator(s) will determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of the third-party arbitration. By selecting arbitration, the requesting party will give up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury. No person may bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration.

The following provisions will apply to both mediations and third-party arbitrations:

• Any mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York.

• Notwithstanding this dispute resolution provision, the parties will have the right to seek provisional or ancillary relief from a competent court of law, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or attachment order, provided such relief would otherwise be available by law.

• The details and/or existence of any unfulfilled repurchase request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve an unfulfilled repurchase request, and any discovery taken in connection with any arbitration, will be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding; provided, however, that any discovery taken in any arbitration will be admissible in that particular arbitration. Such information will be kept strictly confidential and will not be disclosed or discussed with any third party (excluding a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with the related resolution procedure), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a dispute resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient will promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and will provide the other party with the opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

A requesting party may not initiate a mediation or arbitration as described above with respect to a receivable that is, or has been, the subject of an ongoing or previous mediation or arbitration (whether by that requesting party or another requesting party) but will have the right to join an existing mediation or arbitration with respect to that receivable if the mediation or arbitration has not yet concluded.

The Transferor Certificates; Additional Transferors

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the transferors may exchange a portion of the original transferor certificate for a Supplemental Certificate for transfer or assignment to a person designated by the transferors upon the execution and delivery of a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement (which supplement shall be subject to the amendment section of the pooling and servicing agreement to the extent that it amends any of the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement; see “— Amendments”); provided that prior to such transfer or assignment:

(a)        the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied,

(b)        each transferor shall have delivered to the trustee an officer’s certificate to the effect that such transferor reasonably believes that such transfer or assignment will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such certification, have an Adverse Effect,

(c)        the transferors shall have delivered to the trustee a Tax Opinion with respect to such transfer or assignment,

(d)        the aggregate amount of principal receivables in the trust as of the date of such transfer or assignment will be greater than the Required Minimum Principal Balance as of such date, and

(e)        the transferors or other holders of the original transferor certificate as of the date of such transfer or assignment shall have a remaining interest in the trust of not less than, in the aggregate, 2% of the total amount of principal receivables and funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account, the principal funding account and any other similar account.

The primary purpose for such a transfer would be to convey an interest in the original transferor certificate to another person. Any transfer or assignment of a Supplemental Certificate is subject to the condition set forth in (c) above.

If an affiliate of the transferors owns Eligible Accounts, the receivables of which are eligible for transfer to the trust, the transferors may wish to designate such affiliate to be included as a “transferor” under the pooling and servicing agreement (by means of an amendment to the pooling and servicing agreement that will not require the consent of any certificateholder; see “—Amendments” below). In connection with the designation of an additional

71

transferor, the transferors will surrender the Transferor Certificate to the trustee in exchange for a newly issued Transferor Certificate modified to reflect such additional transferor’s interest in the Transferors’ Interest; provided, however, that:

(i)        the conditions set forth in clauses (a), (c) and (e) in the preceding paragraph with respect to a transfer of a Supplemental Certificate shall have been satisfied with respect to such designation and transfer, and

(ii)        any applicable conditions described in “— Additions of Accounts” below shall have been satisfied with respect to the transfer of receivables by any additional transferor to the trust. Following the inclusion of an additional transferor, the additional transferor will be treated in the same manner as a transferor, and each additional transferor generally will have the same obligations and rights as a transferor described herein.

Additions of Accounts

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, the transferors (without independent verification of their authority) may designate from time to time Additional Accounts to be included as accounts in the trust. Subject only to the eligibility requirements in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement and applicable regulatory guidelines, the account owners have the discretion to select the accounts from the Total Portfolio for addition to the Trust Portfolio. In connection with any such designation, the transferors will convey to the trust all of their respective interests in all receivables arising from those Additional Accounts. The conveyance by any transferor is subject to the following conditions, among others:

• each such Additional Account must be an Eligible Account, and

• except for the addition of new accounts,

(a)        the selection of the Additional Accounts is done in a manner which the relevant transferor reasonably believes will not result in an Adverse Effect, and

(b)        the Rating Agency Condition will have been satisfied.

The transferors will be obligated to designate Additional Accounts (to the extent available) if the aggregate amount of principal receivables in the trust at the end of any Monthly Period is less than the Required Minimum Principal Balance as of the end of that Monthly Period.

Any Additional Accounts designated to the trust will be selected from accounts owned by Centurion or FSB. Therefore, if Additional Accounts are to be designated, a transferor shall, under the applicable purchase agreement, request that Centurion or FSB, as applicable, designate accounts which qualify as Eligible Accounts to such transferor. Such transferor will then designate such accounts to the trust.

Each Additional Account must be an Eligible Account as of the applicable selection date. Because Additional Accounts may be created after the applicable selection dates with respect to the accounts already in the Trust Portfolio, they may not be of the same credit quality as the accounts currently in the Trust Portfolio. The Additional Accounts may have been originated at a later date using credit, origination or underwriting criteria different from those which were applied to the accounts currently in the Trust Portfolio. Furthermore, they may have been acquired from another revolving credit issuer or entity that had different credit, origination or underwriting criteria. Consequently, the performance of such Additional Accounts may be better or worse than the performance of the accounts already in the Trust Portfolio.

72

Removal of Accounts

On any day of any Monthly Period, the transferors (without independent verification of their authority) may, but shall not be obligated to, acquire all receivables and proceeds thereof with respect to removed accounts. The removal could occur for a number of reasons, including a determination by the transferors that the trust contains more receivables than the transferors are obligated to retain in the trust under the pooling and servicing agreement and any applicable supplements and a determination that the transferors do not desire to obtain additional financing through the trust at such time.

The transferors are permitted to designate and require reassignment of the receivables from removed accounts upon satisfaction of the conditions listed in the pooling and servicing agreement, including:

• delivery by the transferors to the trustee of a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete list of all removed accounts, such accounts to be identified by, among other things, account number and their aggregate amount of receivables;

• the delivery by each transferor to the trustee of an officer’s certificate to the effect that, in the reasonable belief of such transferor,

(i)        no selection procedure believed by such transferor to be materially adverse to, or materially beneficial to, the interests of the certificateholders or such transferor was utilized in removing the removed accounts from among any pool of accounts of a similar type,

(ii)        such removal will not have an Adverse Effect, and

(iii)        such removal will not result in the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event;

• at least eight Business Days prior to the removal, the transferors shall have delivered written notice of the removal to each Rating Agency and the trustee; and

• the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such removal.

In addition, the transferors’ designation of any account as a removed account shall be random, unless the removed accounts are accounts (i) originated or acquired under a specific affinity agreement, private label agreement, merchant agreement, co-branding agreement or other program which is co-owned, operated or promoted, provided that such agreement has terminated in accordance with the terms therein or (ii) being removed due to other circumstances caused by requirements of agreements in which the right to such removed accounts or control thereof is determined by a party or parties to such agreements other than the transferors, any affiliate of the transferors or any agent of the transferors.

Discount Option

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the transferors may at any time and from time to time designate a fixed or variable percentage, known as the discount percentage, of the amount of principal receivables existing and arising in all or any specified portion of the accounts on and after the date such designation becomes effective to be treated as finance charge receivables, which will be called discount option receivables. Although there can be no assurance that the transferors will do so, such designation may occur because the transferors determine that the exercise of the discount option is needed to provide a sufficient yield on the receivables to cover interest and other amounts due and payable from collections of finance charge receivables or to avoid the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event relating to the reduction of the average yield on the portfolio of accounts in the trust, if the related supplement provides for such a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event. The existence of discount option receivables will result in an increase in the amount of collections of finance charge receivables, a reduction in the balance of principal receivables outstanding and a reduction in the Transferor Amount.

73

After any such designation, pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, the transferors may, without notice to or consent of the certificateholders, from time to time increase, reduce or withdraw the percentage of receivables subject to such designation. The transferors must provide 30 days prior written notice to the servicer, the trustee, each Rating Agency and any provider of Series Enhancement of any such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal. Such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal will become effective on the date specified therein only if:

• each transferor delivers to the trustee and certain providers of series enhancement a certificate of an authorized officer of that transferor to the effect that, based on the facts known to that transferor at the time, such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal will not at the time of its occurrence cause a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event or an event that, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event, to occur with respect to any series,

• the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal, and

• only in the case of a reduction or withdrawal of the discount percentage, the transferors will have:

(i)        delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that such reduction of the percentage of discount option receivables will not adversely affect the tax characterization as debt of any certificates of any outstanding series or class that were characterized as debt at the time of their issuance and

(ii)        in certain circumstances, obtained the prior written consent of each provider of series enhancement entitled to consent thereto.

On the Date of Processing of any collections on or after the date the exercise of the discount option takes effect, the product of:

• the discount percentage then in effect, and

• collections of receivables with respect to the accounts on or after the date such option is exercised that otherwise would be principal receivables,

will be deemed collections of finance charge receivables and will be applied accordingly.

The transferors have increased and decreased the discount percentage from time to time, but the discount percentage is currently 0%.

Premium Option

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the transferors may at any time and from time to time designate a specified fixed or variable percentage, known as the premium percentage, of the amount of finance charge receivables existing arising in all or any specified portion of the accounts existing on and after the date such designation becomes effective to be treated as principal receivables, which will be called premium receivables. Although there can be no assurance that the transferors will exercise the option to designate premium receivables, the transferors may do so if, among other things, the transferors determine that the exercise of such option is needed to cover shortfalls of the principal receivables available to make scheduled principal payments on the certificates or scheduled deposits into the principal funding account, as applicable, or to avoid the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event relating to the existence of such shortfalls. Any such designation would result in an increase in the amount of collections of principal receivables and a lower yield on the portfolio with respect to collections of finance charge receivables than would otherwise occur.

After any such designation, pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, the transferors may, without notice to or consent of the certificateholders, from time to time increase, reduce or withdraw the premium percentage. The transferors must provide 30 days prior written notice to the servicer, the trustee, each Rating Agency and any

74

provider of series enhancement of any such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal. Such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal will become effective on the date specified therein only if:

• each transferor delivers to the trustee and certain providers of series enhancement a certificate of an authorized officer of that transferor to the effect that, based on the facts known to that transferor at the time, such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal will not at the time of its occurrence cause a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event or an event that, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event, to occur with respect to any series,

• the Rating Agency Condition will have been satisfied with respect to such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal,

• in the case of a designation or increase of the premium percentage, the transferors will have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that such designation or increase of the premium percentage will not adversely affect the tax characterization as debt of any certificates of any outstanding series or class that were characterized as debt at their time of issuance, and

• in certain circumstances, the transferors will have obtained the prior written consent of each provider of series enhancement entitled to consent thereto.

On the Date of Processing of any collections on or after the date the exercise of the premium option takes effect, the product of:

• the premium percentage then in effect, and

• collections of receivables with respect to the accounts on or after the date such option is exercised that otherwise would be finance charge receivables, will be deemed collections of principal receivables and will be applied accordingly, unless otherwise provided in the related supplement.

The premium percentage is currently 0%.

Indemnification

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the servicer will indemnify the trust and the trustee from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained arising out of certain of the servicer’s actions or omissions with respect to the trust pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement.

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, each transferor has agreed to be liable directly to an injured party for the entire amount of any liabilities of the trust (other than those incurred by a certificateholder in the capacity of an investor in the certificates of any series) arising out of or based on each of the arrangements created by the pooling and servicing agreement and the actions of each transferor taken pursuant thereto as though the pooling and servicing agreement created a partnership under the New York Uniform Partnership Act in which each transferor was a general partner.

Except as provided in the two preceding paragraphs, the pooling and servicing agreement provides that neither the transferors nor the servicer nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents will be under any other liability to the trust, the trustee, the certificateholders, any provider of Series Enhancement or any other person for any action taken, or for refraining from taking any action, in good faith pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement. However, neither the transferors nor the servicer will be protected against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence of any such person in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties thereunder.

In addition, the pooling and servicing agreement provides that the servicer is not under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its servicing responsibilities under the pooling and servicing agreement. The servicer may, in its sole discretion, undertake any such legal action which it may deem

75

necessary or desirable for the benefit of certificateholders with respect to the pooling and servicing agreement and the rights and duties of the parties thereto and the interests of the certificateholders thereunder.

Collection and Other Servicing Procedures

TRS has been servicing credit card accounts since 1987 and charge card accounts since 1958 when American Express began offering such accounts. TRS has been the servicer for the trust since the trust’s formation in 1996. It has been servicing securitized consumer charge card receivables since 1992 in its capacity as the servicer of the American Express Master Trust. TRS currently is the servicer of the American Express Issuance Trust II and, in the future, may be the servicer of other master trusts or other securitization special purpose entities.

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer, whether acting itself or through one or more subservicers, is responsible for servicing, collecting, enforcing and administering the receivables in accordance with customary and usual procedures for servicing similar credit or charge receivables.

Servicing activities to be performed by the servicer include collecting and recording payments, communicating with account holders, investigating payment delinquencies, evaluating the increase of credit limits and the issuance of credit cards and credit accounts, providing billing and tax records to account holders and maintaining internal records with respect to each account. Managerial and custodial services performed by the servicer on behalf of the trust include providing assistance in any inspections of the documents and records relating to the accounts and receivables by the trustee pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, maintaining the agreements, documents and files relating to the accounts and receivables as custodian for the trust and providing related data processing and reporting services for certificateholders and on behalf of the trustee.

If TRS were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case, a Servicer Default would occur and TRS could be removed as servicer for the trust and a successor servicer would be appointed. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Servicer Default” in this prospectus for more information regarding the appointment of a successor servicer.

Outsourcing of Servicing

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, TRS, as servicer, has the right to delegate its duties as servicer to any person who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement, the applicable account guidelines and the applicable account agreements.

TRS has outsourced certain of its servicing functions by contracting with affiliated and unaffiliated third parties. TRS has contracted with Centurion and FSB to perform certain limited servicing functions with respect to the receivables arising in the accounts owned by each of Centurion and FSB, consisting of collecting and depositing or causing to be deposited into the collection account payments received in respect of such receivables and, when appropriate, charging off as uncollectible such receivables.

The performance of certain servicing functions has been outsourced by TRS and its affiliates to third party vendors. Functions that are performed by outside vendors include card production and fulfillment, card replacement, contacting of customers to collect delinquent and charged-off balances, responding to telephone service center inquiries, processing of customer disputes, data entry and imaging and remittance processing. Among other functions, TRS and its affiliates identify areas of risk, design, develop and implement models to minimize financial exposure and maximize customer spending, develop credit underwriting policies and procedures, underwrite and re-underwrite accounts and formulate risk management and credit criteria. The logic and rules inherent in the systems used by outside vendors to route customer inquiries and to make decisions about accounts are developed by TRS and its affiliates. Third party vendors are required to follow detailed account management procedures and policies of TRS in connection with any decisions made with respect to accounts with respect to which they provide services. TRS and its affiliates regularly audit and assess the performance of third party vendors to measure vendor quality and compliance. All third party vendors are required to comply with the account owners’ security and information protection requirements. Decisions to retain a third party vendor are based on cost, the

76

ability of third parties to provide greater flexibility to TRS and its affiliates, experience, financial stability and various other factors.

Regulus West LLC

TRS’ proprietary facilities conduct paper payment remittance processing services. Since 1999, Regulus West LLC, a Delaware limited liability company referred to as “Regulus,” also has performed paper payment remittance processing services pursuant to an agreement with TRS. Regulus provides these services at three locations in the United States. Regulus also provides disaster recovery services to TRS. As a remittance processor, Regulus is responsible for, among other services, transmitting payment information to TRS, which TRS in turn uses to update its obligor records. Regulus also is responsible for encoding and processing the remittance checks received by TRS at these locations. Regulus is required to perform the services in accordance with service levels and procedures prescribed by TRS, and TRS regularly monitors Regulus’ performance and compliance with TRS’ standards. Regulus may not subcontract any of its duties to any third party without the prior consent of TRS, which TRS may withhold in its sole discretion. TRS has also reserved the right to perform for itself or have a third party perform any of the services performed by Regulus. Regulus West LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Regulus Group LLC, a remittance processing and print distribution company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Napa, California. Effective June 30, 2011, TransCentra, Inc., an affiliate of Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. (“Cerberus”), one of the world’s leading private investment firms, completed its acquisition of 3i Infotech Limited’s (NSE: 3IINFOTEC) US-based Global Billing & Payments unit. The acquired unit, consisting of the subsidiaries formerly known as Regulus Group (including Regulus West LLC) and J&B Software, became a standalone Cerberus portfolio company, which now operates under the TransCentra brand. Regulus continues to provide remittance processing services to banks, credit card issuers, telecommunications carriers, utilities and insurance companies worldwide. Regulus is one of the largest retail remittance processors in the United States, processing more than 45 million payments per month.

In connection with the remittance processing conducted by TRS at its proprietary facility, TRS also has outsourced to a vendor in India the responsibility to manually review and balance paper remittances that cannot be handled by TRS’ automatic payment matching equipment.

Notwithstanding any such delegation or outsourcing, the servicer will continue to be liable for all of its obligations under the transfer and servicing agreement. In certain circumstances, however, TRS could be relieved of its duties as servicer upon the assumption of such duties by another entity. See “— Servicer Default” in this prospectus.

TRS and its affiliates retain the right to change various terms and conditions of the agreements with the third party vendors, and retain the right to change the third party vendors themselves. These changes may be the result of several different factors, including but not limited to: expiration of the servicing contract with the vendor, customer satisfaction, vendor quality and financial strength, compliance with required service levels, adherence to data protection and privacy requirements, adherence to security standards and requirements, performance and skill evaluations, risk management policies, and cost considerations. Accordingly, third party vendors who provide services to TRS, its affiliates and its Card Members may change from time to time, and certificateholders will not be notified of any change. Similarly, to the extent that the terms and conditions are altered for agreements with third party vendors, certificateholders will not be given notice of those changes.

If an affiliated or unaffiliated third party performing certain outsourced or delegated functions were to enter bankruptcy or become insolvent, then the servicing of the accounts in the Total Portfolio could be delayed and payments on your certificates could be accelerated, delayed or reduced.

[If an additional unaffiliated servicer will service 10% or more, but less than 20%, of the pool assets, provide the information contemplated in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.]

[If an additional master servicer, affiliated servicer or other material servicer upon whose responsibilities the performance of the receivables in the trust is materially dependant will service the receivables in the trust, or if an unaffiliated servicer will service 20% or more of the pool assets, provide the information contemplated in Item 1108(a)(3) of Regulation AB.]

New Issuances

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that, pursuant to one or more supplements, the transferors may cause the trust to issue one or more series of certificates and may define all principal terms of such series. Each series may have different terms and enhancements than any other series. None of the transferors, the servicer, the trustee or the trust is required or intends to provide prior notice to, or obtain the consent of, any certificateholder of any other series issued prior to the issuance of a new series. The transferors may offer any series to the public under

77

a prospectus or other disclosure document in transactions either registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or exempt from registration thereunder directly, through one or more purchasers or placement agents, in fixed-price offerings or in negotiated transactions or otherwise. The transferors intend to offer, from time to time, additional series. Each issuance of a new series will have the effect of decreasing the Transferor Amount to the extent of the initial invested amount of such new series. You can review a summary of each series previously issued and currently outstanding under the caption “Annex III: Other Series” included at the end of this prospectus.

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the transferors may designate principal terms such that each series has a Controlled Accumulation Period or a Controlled Amortization Period that may have a different length and begin on a different date than such periods for any other series. Further, one or more series may be in their Controlled Accumulation Period or Controlled Amortization Period while other series are not. Moreover, each series may have the benefits of series enhancement issued by enhancement providers different from the providers of Series Enhancement with respect to any other series.

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, the trustee shall hold any such Series Enhancement only on behalf of the certificateholders of the series to which such Series Enhancement relates. With respect to each such Series Enhancement, the transferors may deliver a different form of Series Enhancement agreement. The transferors also have the option under the pooling and servicing agreement to vary among series the terms upon which a series may be repurchased by the transferors or remarketed to other investors. There is no limit to the number of new issuances the transferors may cause under the pooling and servicing agreement. The trust will terminate only as provided in the pooling and servicing agreement. There can be no assurance that the terms of any series might not have an impact on the timing and amount of payments received by a certificateholder of another series.

Under the pooling and servicing agreement and pursuant to a supplement, a new issuance may only occur upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. The obligation of the trustee to authenticate the certificates of such new series and to execute and deliver the related supplement is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

• on or before the fifth day immediately preceding the date upon which the new issuance is to occur, the transferors will give to the trustee, the servicer and each Rating Agency written notice of such new issuance and the date upon which the new issuance is to occur;

• the transferors will deliver to the trustee the related supplement, specifying the terms of the series;

• the transferors will deliver to the trustee any related Series Enhancement agreement;

• the Rating Agency Condition will be satisfied with respect to the new issuance;

• each transferor will deliver to the trustee and certain providers of Series Enhancement an officer’s certificate of that transferor to the effect that such issuance will not have an Adverse Effect;

• the transferors will deliver to the trustee, each Rating Agency and certain providers of Series Enhancement a Tax Opinion;

• the transferors or other holders of the original transferor certificate shall have a remaining interest in the trust of not less than 2% of the total amount of principal receivables and funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account and the principal funding account; and

• the aggregate amount of principal receivables shall be greater than the Required Minimum Principal Balance as of the date upon which the new issuance is to occur after giving effect to such issuance.

Notwithstanding the conditions to issuance described above, a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement may provide that, in connection with the issuance of any subsequent series, the Rating Agency Condition need not be satisfied for the series governed by such supplement with respect to one or more of the Rating Agencies then rating such series.

78

The pooling and servicing agreement also provides that the transferors may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of, the registered holders of an outstanding series or class of certificates, cause the trust to create and issue additional certificates equal in rank to the series or class of certificates originally issued in all respects, except that interest will begin accruing on the additional certificates on the related issuance date. These additional series or classes of certificates may be consolidated and form a single series or class with the previously issued certificates and will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the previously issued series or class of certificates. In addition, the transferors may retain certificates of a series or class upon initial issuance or upon a reopening of a series or class certificates and may sell them on a subsequent date.

There are no restrictions on the timing or amount of any issuance of additional certificates of an outstanding series or class of certificates so long as the conditions described above for a new issuance are met or waived. As of the date of any issuance of additional certificates of an outstanding series or class of certificates, the Invested Amount and outstanding dollar principal amount of that series or class will be increased to reflect the principal amount of the additional certificates. If the additional certificates are part of a series or class of certificates that has the benefit of a derivative agreement, the transferors will cause the trust to enter into a derivative agreement for the benefit of the additional certificates. In addition, if the additional certificates are part of a series or class of certificates that has the benefit of any supplemental credit enhancement agreement or any supplemental liquidity agreement, the transferors will cause the trust to enter into a similar supplemental credit enhancement agreement or supplemental liquidity agreement, as applicable, for the benefit of the additional certificates. Furthermore, the targeted deposits, if any, to any trust account will be increased proportionately to reflect the principal amount of the additional certificates.

When issued, the additional certificates of a series or class will be identical in all respects to the other outstanding certificates of that series or class equally and ratably entitled to the benefits of the pooling and servicing agreement as applicable to the previously issued certificates of such series or class without preference, priority or distinction.

Collection Account

The servicer has established and maintains for the benefit of the certificateholders of each series, in the name of the trustee, on behalf of the trust, an Eligible Deposit Account called the Collection Account. The Collection Account, which is maintained with The Bank of New York Mellon, bears a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the certificateholders of each series. If at any time the Collection Account is no longer an Eligible Deposit Account, the Collection Account must be moved so that it will again be qualified as an Eligible Deposit Account.

Funds on deposit in the Collection Account generally will be invested by the trustee, at the direction of the servicer, in Eligible Investments. The servicer may appoint as its agent under a separate agreement a registered investment advisor to give instruction on its behalf to the trustee for funds to be invested in Eligible Investments. Any earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the transferors. The servicer will have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account and to instruct the trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account for the purpose of carrying out its duties under the pooling and servicing agreement and any supplement.

Deposits in Collection Account

The servicer, no later than two Business Days after each Date of Processing, will deposit all collections received with respect to the receivables in each Monthly Period into the Collection Account. It will then make the deposits and payments to the accounts and parties shown below on the date of such deposit.

For as long as TRS or an affiliate of TRS remains the servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement and any of:

79

(i)        the servicer maintains a short-term credit rating (which may be an implied rating) of not less than P-1 from Moody’s and A-1 from S&P (or such other rating below P-1 or A-1, as the case may be, which is acceptable to such Rating Agency), which is currently the case, or

(ii)        the servicer obtains a guarantee with respect to its deposit and payment obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Rating Agencies) from a guarantor having a short-term credit rating of not less than P-1 from Moody’s and A-1 from S&P (or such other rating below P-1 or A-1, as the case may be, which is acceptable to such Rating Agency), or

(iii)        the Rating Agency Condition will have been satisfied despite the servicer’s inability to satisfy the rating requirement specified in clause (i) above, and for five Business Days following any such reduction of any such rating or failure to satisfy the conditions specified in clause (ii) or (iii) above, the servicer need not deposit collections into the Collection Account on the day indicated in the preceding sentence. Instead it may use for its own benefit such collections until the Business Day immediately preceding the related Distribution Date. On that Business Day, the servicer will make such deposits in an amount equal to the net amount of such deposits and withdrawals which would have been made had the conditions of this sentence not applied.

TRS does not currently maintain the required short-term credit rating described in (i) above and has not taken action as described in (ii) or (iii) above. Therefore, TRS, as servicer, deposits all collections received with respect to the receivables in each Monthly Period into the Collection Account no later than two Business Days after each Date of Processing.

On each Determination Date, the servicer will calculate the amounts to be allocated to the certificateholders of each class or series and the holders of the Transferor Certificates as described herein in respect of collections of receivables received with respect to the preceding Monthly Period.

With respect to the certificateholders’ interest, if the net amount in respect of finance charge receivables to be deposited into the Collection Account on any transfer date exceeds the sum of the interest payments due to certificateholders for the related Distribution Date, the Defaulted Amount and the Servicing Fee, plus certain amounts payable with respect to any Series Enhancement, then the servicer may deduct the Servicing Fee and, during the Revolving Period, the Defaulted Amount (which will be distributed to the transferors, but not in an amount exceeding the Transferors’ Interest in principal receivables on such day, after giving effect to any new receivables transferred to the trust on such day) from the net amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.

In addition, on each Distribution Date with respect to any Controlled Amortization Period or Controlled Accumulation Period, the servicer may deduct the amount of any Shared Principal Collections not required to cover principal shortfalls (which will be distributed to the transferors, but not in an amount exceeding the Transferors’ Interest in principal receivables on such day, after giving effect to any new receivables transferred to the trust on such day) from the net amount to be deposited into the collection account. The trustee may not have a perfected security interest in collections held by the servicer that are commingled with other funds of the servicer or used by the servicer in the event of the bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, conservatorship or receivership of the servicer or, in certain circumstances, the lapse of certain time periods.

On the day any such deposit is made into the Collection Account, the servicer will withdraw from the Collection Account and pay to the transferors to the extent not deducted from collections as described above,

(i)        an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of such deposits in respect of principal receivables treated as Shared Principal Collections for all series over the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all series and, without duplication,

(ii)        the aggregate amount of Series Allocable Principal Collections for all outstanding series to be paid to the transferors with respect to such date.

80

Any amounts in respect of principal receivables not distributed to the transferors on any day because the Transferor Amount does not exceed zero on such day (after giving effect to any principal receivables transferred to the trust on such day) shall be deposited into the Special Funding Account.

Allocations

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, during each Monthly Period the servicer will allocate to each outstanding series its Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections, Series Allocable Principal Collections and Series Allocable Defaulted Amount.

The servicer will then allocate amounts initially allocated to a particular series between the certificateholders’ interest and the Transferors’ Interest for such Monthly Period as follows:

(a)        Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections and the Series Allocable Defaulted Amount will at all times be allocated to the invested amount of a series based on the Floating Allocation Percentage of such series; and

(b)        Series Allocable Principal Collections will at all times be allocated to the invested amount of such series based on the Principal Allocation Percentage of such series.

Amounts not allocated to the invested amount of any series as described above will be allocated to the Transferors’ Interest.

Groups of Series

The certificates of a series may be included in a Reallocation Group. Collections of finance charge receivables allocable to each series in a Reallocation Group will be aggregated and made available for certain required payments for all series in such group. Consequently, the issuance of new series in such group may have the effect of reducing or increasing the amount of collections of finance charge receivables allocable to the certificates of other series in such group. See “Risk Factors — Issuances of additional series by the trust may adversely affect your certificates” in this prospectus.

Series 201[●]-[●] is included in Group [I/II]. Upon issuance, Series 201[●]-[●] will be the [●] outstanding series issued by the trust in Group [I/II]. Any issuance of a new series in Group [I/II] may reduce or increase the amount of finance charge collections allocated to your series.

Reallocations Among Different Series Within a Reallocation Group

Group Investor Finance Charge Collections. For each Monthly Period, the servicer will calculate the Group Investor Finance Charge Collections for a particular Reallocation Group and, on the following Distribution Date, will allocate such amount among the certificateholders’ interest (including any collateral invested amount) for all series in such group in the following priority:

(i)        Group Investor Monthly Interest;

(ii)        Group Investor Default Amount;

(iii)        Group Investor Monthly Fees;

(iv)        Group Investor Additional Amounts; and

(v)        the balance pro rata among each series in such group based on the current invested amount of each such series.

81

In the case of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, if the amount of Group Investor Finance Charge Collections is not sufficient to cover each such amount in full, the amount available will be allocated among the series in such group pro rata based on the claim that each series has under the applicable clause. This means, for example, that if the amount of Group Investor Finance Charge Collections is not sufficient to cover Group Investor Monthly Interest, each series in such group will share such amount pro rata and any other series in such group with a claim with respect to monthly interest, overdue monthly interest and interest on such overdue monthly interest, if applicable, which is larger than the claim for such amounts for any other series in such group offered hereby (due to a higher certificate rate) will receive a proportionately larger allocation.

The chart that follows demonstrates the manner in which collections of finance charge receivables are allocated and reallocated among series in such a group. The chart assumes that the trust has issued three series (Series 1, 2 and 3), and that each such series is in its Revolving Period.

In Step 1, total collections of finance charge receivables are allocated among the three series based on the Series Allocation Percentage for each series. The amounts allocated to each series pursuant to Step I are referred to as “Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections.” See “— Allocations” above.

In Step 2, the amount of Investor Finance Charge Collections is determined by multiplying Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections for each series by the applicable floating allocation percentages. See “— Allocations” above.

Investor Finance Charge Collections for all series in a particular Reallocation Group (or Group Investor Finance Charge Collections) are pooled as shown above in Step 3 for reallocation to each such series as shown in Step 4. In Step 4, Group Investor Finance Charge Collections are reallocated to each series in such group as described above based on the respective claim of each series with respect to interest payable on the certificates or collateral invested amount (if any) of such series, the Defaulted Amount allocable to the certificateholders’ interest of such series and the monthly servicing fee and certain other amounts with respect to such series. The excess is allocated pro rata among the series in such group based on each series’ respective shortfall amounts.

82

83

Sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections Among Excess Allocation Series

Each series issued by the trust may be designated as an Excess Allocation Series. Series 201[•]-[•] [will be] an Excess Allocation Series

If a series is an Excess Allocation Series, collections on finance charge receivables and Excess Finance Charge Collections may be applied to cover any shortfalls with respect to amounts payable from collections of finance charge receivables allocable to any other Excess Allocation Series pro rata based upon the amount of the shortfall, if any, with respect to each other Excess Allocation Series. The sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections among Excess Allocation Series will stop if each transferor delivers to the trustee a certificate of an authorized representative to the effect that, in the reasonable belief of that transferor, the continued sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections among Excess Allocation Series would have adverse regulatory implications with respect to the transferors or any account owner. Following the delivery by the transferors of any such certificates, there will be no further sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections among such series in any such group.

In all cases, any Excess Finance Charge Collections remaining after covering shortfalls with respect to all outstanding Excess Allocation Series will be paid to the holders of the Transferor Certificates. While any series offered hereby may be designated as an Excess Allocation Series, there can be no assurance that:

• any other series will be designated as an Excess Allocation Series,

• there will be any Excess Finance Charge Collections for any such other series for any Monthly Period,

• any agreement relating to any Series Enhancement will not be amended in such a manner as to increase payments to the providers of Series Enhancement and thereby decrease the amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections available from such series, or

• a transferor will not at any time deliver a certificate as described above.

Although the transferors believe that, based upon applicable rules and regulations as currently in effect, the sharing of Excess Finance Charge Collections among Excess Allocation Series will not have adverse regulatory implications for them, or any account owner, there can be no assurance that this will continue to be true in the future.

Sharing of Principal Collections Among Principal Sharing Series

Each series issued by the trust may be designated as a principal sharing series. Series 201[•]-[•] [will be] a principal sharing series.

If a series is a principal sharing series, collections of principal receivables for any Monthly Period allocated to the certificateholders’ interest of any such series will first be used to cover certain amounts in respect of such series (including any required deposits into a principal funding account or required distributions to certificateholders of such series in respect of principal, if any). The servicer will determine the amount of collections of principal receivables for any Monthly Period (plus certain other amounts, including, respect to Series 201[•]-[•], certain amounts described under “Series Provisions — Application of Collections — Payments of Principal” in this prospectus) allocated to such series remaining after covering such required deposits and distributions and any similar amount remaining for any other principal sharing series, collectively called “Shared Principal Collections.” The servicer will allocate the Shared Principal Collections to cover any principal distributions to certificateholders and deposits to principal funding accounts for any principal sharing series that are either scheduled or permitted and that have not been covered out of collections of principal receivables and certain other amounts allocable to the certificateholders’ interest of such series.

If principal shortfalls exceed Shared Principal Collections for any Monthly Period, Shared Principal Collections will be allocated pro rata among the applicable series based on the respective principal shortfalls of such series. To

84

the extent that Shared Principal Collections exceed principal shortfalls, the balance will be allocated to the holders of the Transferor Certificates; provided that:

• such Shared Principal Collections will be distributed to the holders of the Transferor Certificates only to the extent that the Transferor Amount is greater than the Required Transferor Amount, and

• in certain circumstances described below under “— Special Funding Account,” such Shared Principal Collections will be deposited in the Special Funding Account.

Any such reallocation of collections of principal receivables will not result in a reduction in the invested amount of the series to which such collections were initially allocated. There can be no assurance that there will be any Shared Principal Collections with respect to any Monthly Period or that any other series will be designated as a principal sharing series.

Paired Series

As described under “Series Provisions — Application of Collections — Paired Series” in this prospectus, a series of certificates may be paired with another series issued by the trust. As the invested amount of the series having a paired series is reduced, the invested amount in the trust of the paired series will increase by an equal amount. If a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event occurs with respect to the series having a paired series or with respect to the paired series when the series is in a Controlled Amortization Period or Controlled Accumulation Period, the Series Allocation Percentage and the Principal Allocation Percentage for the series having a paired series and the Series Allocation Percentage and the Principal Allocation Percentage for the paired series will be reset as provided in the related supplement. In addition, the Early Amortization Period or Early Accumulation Period for such series could be lengthened. Series 201[●]-[●] [is not] currently paired with another series.

Special Funding Account

If, on any date, the Transferor Amount is less than or equal to the Required Transferor Amount, the servicer will not distribute to the holders of the Transferor Certificates any collections of principal receivables allocable to a series or a group that otherwise would be distributed to such holders. Instead it will deposit such funds in an Eligible Deposit Account, called the Special Funding Account, established and maintained by the servicer for the benefit of the certificateholders of each series, in the name of the trustee, on behalf of the trust. The Special Funding Account will bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the certificateholders of each series.

So long as no series is in a Controlled Accumulation Period, Early Accumulation Period, Controlled Amortization Period or Early Amortization Period, funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account will be withdrawn and paid to the holders of the Transferor Certificates on any Distribution Date to the extent that, after giving effect to such payment, the Transferor Amount exceeds the Required Transferor Amount on such date. If a Controlled Accumulation Period, Early Accumulation Period, Controlled Amortization Period or Early Amortization Period starts and is continuing for any series, however, any funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account will be released, deposited in the Collection Account and treated as collections of principal receivables to the extent needed to make principal payments due to or for the benefit of the certificateholders of such series, but only to the extent that doing so would not cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount.

If the transferors determine that by decreasing the amount on deposit in the Special Funding Account, one or more series for which the related supplements permit partial amortization, may be prevented from experiencing a Pay-Out Event due to the insufficiency of yield, funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account may be applied to each such series (on a pro rata basis according to each series’ invested amount) to reduce the invested amount thereof. Such reduction would enable that series to avoid a yield insufficiency Pay-Out Event, but may be done only to the extent that it would not cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount. The transferors, at their option, may instruct the trustee to deposit to the Special Funding Account any Shared Principal Collections that would otherwise be payable to the holders of the Transferor Certificates in accordance with the foregoing.

85

Funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account will be invested by the trustee, at the direction of the servicer, in Eligible Investments or, if no such direction is provided, will remain univested. Any earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) earned on amounts on deposit in the Special Funding Account during any Monthly Period will be withdrawn from the Special Funding Account and treated as collections of finance charge receivables for that Monthly Period.

Funding Period

For any series, the related supplement may specify that during a Funding Period, the aggregate amount of principal receivables in the trust allocable to such series may be less than the aggregate principal amount of the certificates of such series. If so specified in the related supplement, the amount of such deficiency, called the Prefunding Amount, will be held in a prefunding account pending the transfer of additional principal receivables to the trust or pending the reduction of the invested amounts of other series issued by the trust. The related supplement will specify the initial invested amount for such series, the aggregate principal amount of the certificates of such series and the date by which the invested amount is expected to equal the aggregate principal amount of the certificates. The invested amount will increase as receivables are delivered to the trust or as the invested amounts of other series of the trust are reduced. The invested amount may also decrease due to the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event for that series.

During the Funding Period, funds on deposit in the prefunding account for a series of certificates will be withdrawn and paid to the transferors to the extent of any increases in the invested amount. If the invested amount does not for any reason equal the aggregate principal amount of the certificates by the end of the Funding Period, any amount remaining in the prefunding account and any additional amounts specified in the related supplement will be payable to the certificateholders of such series in the manner and at such time as set forth in the related supplement.

If so specified in the related supplement, moneys in the prefunding account will be invested by the trustee in Eligible Investments or will be subject to a guaranteed rate or investment agreement or other similar arrangement. In connection with each Distribution Date during the Funding Period, investment earnings on funds in the prefunding account during the related Monthly Period will be withdrawn from the prefunding account and deposited, together with any applicable payment under a guaranteed rate or investment agreement or other similar arrangement, into the Collection Account for distribution in respect of interest on the certificates of the related series in the manner specified in the related supplement.

[No Funding Period is specified for Series 201[●]-[●].]

Defaulted Receivables; Rebates and Fraudulent Charges

Receivables in any account will be charged off as uncollectible in accordance with the account guidelines and the servicer’s customary and usual policies and procedures for servicing charge and other credit account receivables comparable to the receivables. The current policy of Centurion and FSB is to charge off the receivables in an account when the account is six contractual payments past due (i.e., approximately 180 days delinquent) or sooner if the death or bankruptcy of the account holder has been confirmed. This policy may change in the future to conform with regulatory requirements and applicable law.

If the servicer adjusts downward the amount of any principal receivable (other than Ineligible Receivables that have been, or are to be, reassigned to a transferor) because of a rebate, refund, counterclaim, defense, error, fraudulent charge or counterfeit charge to an account holder, or such principal receivable was created in respect of merchandise that was refused or returned by an account holder, or if the servicer otherwise adjusts downward the amount of any principal receivable without receiving collections therefor or charges off such amount as uncollectible, the Transferor Amount — and not the investors’ interests — will be reduced by the amount of the adjustment. Furthermore, in the event that the exclusion of any such receivables would cause the Transferor Amount at such time to be less than the Required Transferor Amount, the transferors will be required to pay an amount equal to such deficiency into the Special Funding Account.

86

Servicer Covenants

In the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer has agreed as to each receivable and related account that it will:

(a)        duly fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the receivables or the related accounts, and will maintain in effect all qualifications required in order to service the receivables or accounts, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the certificateholders;

(b)        not authorize any rescission or cancellation of the receivables except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority;

(c)        take no action to impair the rights of the trustee in the receivables or the related accounts; and

(d)        not reschedule, revise or defer payments due on the receivables except in accordance with its guidelines for servicing receivables.

Under the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement, if the servicer discovers, or receives written notice from the trustee, that:

• any covenant of the servicer set forth in clauses (a) through (d) above has not been complied with in all material respects and

• such noncompliance has not been cured within 60 days (or such longer period as may be agreed to by the trustee and the transferors) thereafter and has a material adverse effect on the certificateholders’ interest in such receivables,

then all receivables in the related account will be assigned and transferred to the servicer and the account will no longer be included as an account in the Trust Portfolio.

Such assignment and transfer will be made when the servicer deposits an amount equal to the amount of such receivables in the Collection Account on the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date following the Monthly Period during which such obligation arises. This transfer and assignment to the servicer constitutes the sole remedy available to the certificateholders if such covenant or warranty of the servicer is not satisfied and the trust’s interest in any such assigned receivables will be automatically assigned to the servicer.

Certain Matters Regarding the Servicer

The servicer may not resign from its obligations and duties under the pooling and servicing agreement except:

(i)        upon determination that the performance of such obligations and duties is no longer permissible under applicable law or

(ii)        if such obligations and duties are assumed by an entity that has satisfied the Rating Agency Condition.

No such resignation will become effective until the trustee or a successor to the servicer has assumed the servicer’s obligations and duties under the pooling and servicing agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the servicer may assign part or all of its obligations and duties as servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement if such assignment satisfies the Rating Agency Condition. TRS may assign or delegate all or part of its rights, duties and obligations as servicer to Centurion within the next two years.

87

Any person into which, in accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer may be merged or consolidated or any person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the servicer is a party, or any person succeeding to the business of the servicer, will be the successor to the servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement.

Servicer Default

In the event of any Servicer Default, either the trustee or certificateholders holding certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all certificates, by written notice to the servicer (and to the trustee if given by the certificateholders), may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the servicer, as servicer, under the pooling and servicing agreement. The trustee will appoint a new servicer. Any such termination and appointment is called a service transfer. If the only Servicer Default is bankruptcy-, insolvency-, receivership-, or conservatorship-related, however, the bankruptcy trustee, the receiver or the conservator for the servicer or the servicer itself as debtor-in-possession may have the power to prevent the trustee or certificateholders from appointing a successor servicer. See “Risk Factors — The conservatorship, receivership, bankruptcy, or insolvency of Centurion, FSB, TRS, a transferor, the trust, or any of their affiliates could result in accelerated, delayed, or reduced payments to you.”

The rights and interest of the transferors under the pooling and servicing agreement in the Transferors’ Interest will not be affected by any termination notice or service transfer. If, within 60 days of receipt of a termination notice, the trustee does not receive any bids from eligible servicers but receives an officer’s certificate from each transferor to the effect that the servicer cannot in good faith cure the Servicer Default which gave rise to the termination notice, then the trustee shall, except when the Servicer Default is caused by certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, conservatorship or receivership of the servicer, offer the transferors a right of first refusal to purchase the certificateholders’ interest on the Distribution Date in the next calendar month. The purchase price for the certificateholders’ interest will be equal to the sum of the amounts specified therefor for each outstanding series in the related supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement.

The trustee will, as promptly as possible, appoint a successor servicer. The successor servicer may be Centurion, FSB, the trustee or an entity which, at the time of its appointment as successor servicer, (1) services a portfolio of charge or credit accounts, (2) is legally qualified and has the capacity to service the trust, (3) has, in the sole determination of the trustee, demonstrated the ability to service professionally and competently a portfolio of similar accounts in accordance with high standards of skill and care, (4) is qualified to use the software that is then being used to service the accounts or obtains the right to use or has its own software which is adequate to perform its duties under the pooling and servicing agreement and other securitization agreements and (5) has a net worth of at least $50,000,000 as of the end of its most recent fiscal quarter. The successor servicer shall accept its appointment by written instrument acceptable to the trustee. The successor servicer is entitled to compensation out of collections; however, that compensation will not be in excess of the servicing fee. See “Description of the Certificates — Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses” in this prospectus for a discussion of the monthly servicing fee. Because TRS, as servicer, has significant responsibilities with respect to the servicing of the receivables, the trustee may have difficulty finding a suitable successor servicer. Potential successor servicers may not have the capacity to adequately perform the duties required of a successor servicer or may not be willing to perform such duties for the amount of the servicing fee currently payable under the pooling and servicing agreement. If no successor servicer has been appointed by the trustee and has accepted such appointment by the time the servicer ceases to act as servicer, all rights, authority, power and obligations of the servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement will be vested in the trustee. The Bank of New York Mellon, the trustee, does not have credit card operations. If The Bank of New York Mellon is automatically appointed as successor servicer, it may not have the capacity to perform the duties required of a successor servicer and current servicing compensation under the pooling and servicing agreement may not be sufficient to cover its actual costs and expenses of servicing the accounts. Prior to any service transfer, the trustee will seek to obtain bids from potential servicers meeting certain eligibility requirements set forth in the pooling and servicing agreement to serve as a successor servicer for servicing compensation not in excess of the Servicing Fee plus any amounts payable to the transferors pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement.

88

Evidence as to Compliance

The fiscal year for the trust will end on December 31 of each year. The servicer will file with the SEC an annual report on Form 10-K on behalf of the trust 90 days after the end of its fiscal year.

The servicer will deliver to the trustee and, if required, file with the SEC as part of an annual report on Form 10-K filed on behalf of the trust, the following documents:

• a report regarding its assessment of compliance during the preceding fiscal year with all applicable servicing criteria set forth in relevant SEC regulations with respect to asset backed securities transactions taken as a whole involving the servicer that are backed by the same types of assets as those backing the certificates;

• with respect to each assessment report described immediately above, a report by a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the assessment made by the asserting party, as set forth in relevant SEC regulations; and

• a servicer compliance certificate, signed by an authorized officer of the servicer, to the effect that:

(i)   a review of the servicer’s activities during the reporting period and of its performance under the pooling and servicing agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision; and

(ii)   to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement in all material respects throughout the reporting period or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

The servicer’s obligation to deliver any servicing assessment report or attestation report and, if required, to file the same with the SEC, is limited to those reports prepared by the servicer and, in the case of reports prepared by any other party, those reports actually received by the servicer.

Copies of all statements, certificates and reports furnished to the trustee may be obtained by a request in writing delivered to the trustee. Except as described in this prospectus, there will not be any independent verification that any duty or obligation to be performed by any transaction party — including the servicer — has been performed by that party.

Transferor Insolvency

In addition to the consequences of a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event discussed above, if an insolvency event occurs, the transferors immediately will stop transferring principal receivables to the trust. They also will promptly notify the trustee of the insolvency event.

An “insolvency event” shall occur if any transferor or other holder of the original transferor certificate shall consent to or fail to object to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or trustee in any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to such transferor or other holder or of or relating to all or substantially all of such transferor’s or other holder’s property, or a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises shall issue, or enter against such transferor or other holder a decree or order for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or trustee in any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings or for the winding-up or liquidation of such transferor’s or other holder’s affairs; or any such transferor or other holder shall admit in writing its inability, or shall be unable, to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership, or conservatorship statute, make any assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or a proceeding shall have been instituted against such transferor or other holder by a court having jurisdiction in the premises seeking a

89

decree or order for relief in respect of any such person in an involuntary case under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation statute, or for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or other similar official, of such transferor or other holder or for any substantial part of such transferor’s or other holder’s property, or for the liquidation and winding up of such transferor’s or other holder’s affairs and, if instituted against such transferor or other holder, any such proceeding shall continue undismissed or unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days, or any of the actions sought in such proceeding shall occur.

If the only Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event to occur with respect to any series is the bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation receivership or conservatorship of a transferor, the trustee may not be permitted to suspend transfers of receivables to the trust.

Amendments

The pooling and servicing agreement and any supplement may be amended from time to time, including in connection with:

• the issuance of a Supplemental Certificate,

• the addition to the trust of a participation interest,

• the designation of additional transferors,

• the addition to the trust of receivables arising from charge or credit accounts other than the revolving credit accounts, or

• to change the definition of Monthly Period, Determination Date or Distribution Date.

Amendments to the pooling and servicing agreement and any supplement may be made by agreement of the trustee, the transferors and the servicer without the consent of the certificateholders of any series, so long as:

• the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied,

• each transferor delivers to the trustee an officer’s certificate to the effect that such amendment will not have an Adverse Effect, and

• such amendment will not effect a change in the permitted activities of the trust except for those changes necessary for compliance with accounting requirements or tax requirements or required to cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision contained in the pooling and servicing agreement or any supplement which may be defective or inconsistent with any provisions thereof.

The pooling and servicing agreement or any supplement also may be amended by the trustee, the transferors and the servicer:

(a)        in the case of a change in the permitted activities of the trust which is not materially adverse to holders of certificates, with the consent of certificateholders evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the certificates of each outstanding series affected by such change, unless such change is necessary for compliance with accounting requirements or tax requirements or required to cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision contained in the pooling and servicing agreement or any supplement which may be defective or inconsistent with any provisions thereof, and

(b)        in all other cases with the consent of the certificateholders evidencing not less than 66 ²⁄₃% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the certificates of all affected series for which the transferors have not delivered an officer’s certificate stating that there will be no Adverse Effect, for the purpose of

90

adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the pooling and servicing agreement or any supplement or of modifying in any manner the rights of certificateholders.

No such amendment specified in clause (b) above, however, may:

• reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, deposits or distributions on any certificate without the consent of each certificateholder,

• change the definition or the manner of calculating the certificateholders’ interest or the invested amount without the consent of each certificateholder,

• reduce the percentage required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of each certificateholder, or

• adversely affect the rating of any series or class by any Rating Agency without the consent of the holders of certificates of such series or class evidencing not less than 66 ²⁄₃% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the certificates of such series or class.

Promptly following the execution of any amendment to the pooling and servicing agreement (other than an amendment described in the first paragraph), the trustee will furnish written notice of the substance of such amendment to each certificateholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any supplement executed in connection with the issuance of one or more new series of certificates will not be considered an amendment to the pooling and servicing agreement.

In addition to being subject to amendment pursuant to the provisions described above, the pooling and servicing agreement and the related supplement may be amended by the transferors without the consent of the servicer, the trustee or any certificateholder to account for the transfer of assets as sales in accordance with FASB Statement No. 140, including providing for the transfer of receivables from Centurion or FSB to a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity and from that entity to the trust. Promptly after the effectiveness of any such amendment, the transferors shall deliver a copy of such amendment to each of the servicer, the trustee, each Rating Agency and any other party entitled to receive it pursuant to the relevant supplement. Furthermore, such amendment shall be subject to the delivery by the transferors of a Tax Opinion.

Defeasance

Only if so expressly provided in the applicable supplement, then pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, the transferors may terminate their substantive obligations in respect of a series or the pooling and servicing agreement by depositing with the trustee, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement satisfactory to the trustee, from amounts representing or acquired with collections on the receivables (allocable to the defeased series and available to purchase additional receivables) monies or Eligible Investments sufficient to make all remaining scheduled interest and principal payments on the defeased series on the dates scheduled for such payments and to pay all amounts owing to any provider of Series Enhancement. To achieve that end, the transferors have the right to use collections on receivables to purchase Eligible Investments rather than additional receivables.

Prior to the first exercise of their right to substitute monies or Eligible Investments for receivables, the transferors shall deliver:

(i)        to the trustee an opinion of counsel with respect to such deposit and termination of obligations to the effect that, for federal income tax purposes, such action would not cause the trust to be deemed to be an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation; and

(ii)        to the servicer and the trustee written notice from each Rating Agency that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

91

In addition, the transferors must comply with certain other requirements set forth in the pooling and servicing agreement, including requirements that the transferors deliver:

• to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the deposit and termination of obligations will not require the trust to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and

• to the trustee and certain providers of Series Enhancement an officer’s certificate stating that, based on the facts known to such officer at the time, in the reasonable opinion of the transferors, such deposit and termination of obligations will not at the time of its occurrence cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event or an event that, after the giving of notice or the lapse of time would constitute a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, to occur with respect to any series.

If the transferors discharge their substantive obligations in respect of the defeased series, any Series Enhancement for the affected series may no longer be available to make payments with respect to that series.

Upon the making of any deposit described in the preceding paragraph, the certificateholders of the defeased series could recognize taxable gain for federal income tax purposes to the extent that the value of the affected certificates exceeds the tax basis therein, but in no event would be allowed to deduct a taxable loss for such purposes.

List of Certificateholders

Upon written request of any holder or group of holders of certificates of any series or of all outstanding series of record holding certificates evidencing not less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the certificates of such series or all series, as applicable, the trustee will afford such holder or holders of certificates access during business hours to the current list of certificateholders of such series or of all outstanding series, as the case may be, for purposes of communicating with other holders of certificates with respect to their rights under the pooling and servicing agreement. See “Description of the Certificates — Book-Entry Registration” and “— Definitive Certificates” in this prospectus.

The pooling and servicing agreement will not provide for any annual or other meetings of certificateholders.

The Trustee

The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, is the trustee under the pooling and servicing agreement. See “Transaction Parties — The Trustee” in this prospectus for a description of The Bank of New York Mellon.

Under the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer agrees to pay to the trustee reasonable compensation for performance of its duties under the pooling and servicing agreement. The trustee has agreed to perform only those duties specifically set forth in the pooling and servicing agreement. Many of the duties of the trustee are described in “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally” and throughout this prospectus. Under the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement, the trustee’s limited responsibilities include the following:

• to deliver to certificateholders of record certain notices, reports and other documents received by the trustee, as required under the pooling and servicing agreement;

• to authenticate, deliver, cancel and otherwise administer the investor certificates;

• to remove and reassign ineligible receivables and accounts from the trust;

• to establish and maintain necessary trust accounts and to maintain accurate records of activity in those accounts;

92

• to serve as the initial transfer agent, paying agent and registrar, and, if its resigns these duties, to appoint a successor transfer agent, paying agent and register;

• to invest funds in the trust accounts at the direction of the servicer;

• to represent the certificateholders in interactions with clearing agencies and other similar organizations;

• to distribute and transfer funds at the direction of the servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement;

• to file with the appropriate party all documents necessary to protect the rights and interests of the certificateholders;

• to enforce the rights of the certificateholders against the servicer, if necessary;

• to notify the certificateholders and other parties, to sell the receivables, and to allocate the proceeds of such sale, in the event of the termination of the trust; and

• to perform certain other administrative functions identified in the pooling and servicing agreement.

In addition to the responsibilities described above, the trustee has the discretion to require the transferors or the servicer, as applicable, to cure a potential Pay-Out Event and to declare a Pay-Out Event. See “— Pay-Out Events and Reinvestment Events.”

If a servicer default occurs, in addition to the responsibilities described above, the trustee may be required to appoint a successor servicer or to take over servicing responsibilities under the pooling and servicing agreement. See “— Servicer Default.” In addition, if a servicer default occurs, the trustee, in its discretion, may proceed to protect its rights or the rights of the investor certificateholders under the pooling and servicing agreement by a suit, action or other judicial proceeding.

The trustee is not liable for any errors of judgment as long as the errors are made in good faith and the trustee was not negligent. The trustee may resign at any time, and it may be forced to resign if the trustee fails to meet the eligibility requirements specified in the pooling and servicing agreement.

The holders of a majority of investor certificates have the right to direct the time, method or place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee under the pooling and servicing agreement.

Merger or Consolidation of a Transferor or the Servicer

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that a transferor may not consolidate with or merge into, or sell all or substantially all of its assets as an entirety to, any other entity unless:

(i)        the surviving entity is organized under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(ii)        the surviving entity, the transferors and the trustee shall have entered into a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement providing for the entity’s assumption of the applicable transferor’s obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement;

(iii)        the applicable transferor shall have delivered to the trustee:

(a)        an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel regarding the enforceability of such assumption agreement against the surviving entity; and

93

(b)        a Tax Opinion;

(iv)  all filings required to perfect the trustee’s interest in the receivables to be conveyed by the surviving entity shall have been duly made and copies thereof shall have been delivered to the trustee;

(v)        the trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel with respect to clause (iv) above and certain other matters specified in the pooling and servicing agreement; and

(vi)        if the surviving entity is not subject to Title 11 of the United States Code, the applicable transferor shall have delivered notice to each Rating Agency of the assumption of such transferor’s obligations by the surviving entity. If the surviving entity is subject to Title 11 of the United States Code, the applicable transferor shall have delivered the notice described above and the transferors shall have received notice that the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied.

Assumption of obligations by entities subject to Title 11 of the United States Code in accordance with the provisions described above may alter or increase certain insolvency risks described under “Risk Factors — The conservatorship, receivership, bankruptcy, or insolvency of Centurion, FSB, TRS, a transferor, the trust, or any of their affiliates could result in accelerated, delayed, or reduced payments to you” in this prospectus.

Under the pooling and servicing agreement, the servicer may not consolidate with or merge into, or sell all or substantially all of its assets as an entirety to, any other entity unless, among other things:

(i)        the surviving entity is an eligible servicer under the pooling and servicing agreement;

(ii)        the surviving entity is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; and

(iii)        in a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement, the surviving entity expressly assumes the servicer’s obligations under such agreement.

Assumption of a Transferor’s Obligations

The pooling and servicing agreement permits a transfer of all or a portion of a transferor’s credit or charge accounts and the receivables arising thereunder. This transfer may include all (but not less than all) of the accounts and may also include such transferor’s remaining interest in the receivables arising thereunder and its interest in the trust, together with all servicing functions and other obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated thereby, to another entity that may or may not be affiliated with that transferor. Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, each transferor is permitted to assign, convey, and transfer these assets and obligations to such other entity, without the consent or approval or any certificateholders, if the following conditions, among others, are satisfied:

(i)        the assuming entity is organized under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(ii)        the assuming entity, the transferors and the trustee shall have entered into a supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement or an assumption agreement providing for the entity’s assumption of the applicable transferor’s obligations under the pooling and servicing agreement;

(iii)         the applicable transferor shall have delivered to the trustee:

(a)        an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel regarding the enforceability of such assumption agreement against the assuming entity; and

(b)        a Tax Opinion;

94

(iv)        all filings required to perfect the trustee’s interest in the receivables to be conveyed by the assuming entity shall have been duly made and copies thereof shall have been delivered to the trustee;

(v)        the trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel with respect to clause (iv) above and certain other matters specified in the pooling and servicing agreement; and

(vi)        if the assuming entity is not subject to Title 11 of the United States Code, the applicable transferor shall have delivered notice to each Rating Agency of the assumption of such transferor’s obligations by the surviving entity. If the assuming entity is subject to Title 11 of the United States Code, the applicable transferor shall have delivered the notice described above and the transferors shall have received notice that the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied.

The pooling and servicing agreement provides that the transferors, the surviving entity and the trustee may enter into amendments to that agreement to permit the transfer and assumption described above without the consent of any certificateholders. After any permitted transfer and assumption, the assuming entity will be considered to be a “transferor” for all purposes hereof, and the applicable transferor will have no further liability or obligation under the pooling and servicing agreement. Assumption of obligations by entities subject to Title 11 of the United States Code in accordance with the provisions described above may alter or increase certain insolvency risks described under “Risk Factors — The conservatorship, receivership, bankruptcy, or insolvency of Centurion, FSB, TRS, a transferor, the trust, or any of their affiliates could result in accelerated, delayed, or reduced payments to you” in this prospectus.

Description of the Purchase Agreements

The following summarizes the material terms of the RFC III purchase agreement, which is the receivables purchase agreement between Centurion and RFC III, and the RFC IV purchase agreement, which is the receivables purchase agreement between FSB and RFC IV. We refer to the RFC III purchase agreement and the RFC IV purchase agreement collectively as the “purchase agreements” and we refer to RFC III and RFC IV individually as the “purchaser” and collectively as the “purchasers.” Forms of the purchase agreements are filed as exhibits to this registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part.

Sale of Receivables

Centurion and FSB are the owners of the accounts which contain the receivables that are purchased by RFC III and RFC IV, respectively, pursuant to the respective purchase agreement and then transferred by RFC III and RFC IV to the trust. In connection with the sale of receivables to RFC III and RFC IV, respectively, each of Centurion and FSB has:

• filed appropriate UCC financing statements to evidence the sale to the respective purchaser and to perfect the right, title and interest of such purchaser in those receivables; and

• indicated in its books and records (including any related computer files) that the receivables have been sold by it to the respective purchaser.

Pursuant to the applicable purchase agreement, Centurion and FSB, respectively:

• sold all of its right, title and interest, if any, in the receivables existing in the initial accounts at the close of business on the substitution date and in the receivables thereafter arising in those accounts, in each case including all Issuer Rate Fees, insurance proceeds and Recoveries allocable to such receivables, all monies due or to become due, all amounts received or receivable, all collections and all proceeds, each as it relates to such receivables; and

95

• will, from time to time, at the request of the respective purchaser, designate Additional Accounts and sell to the respective purchaser all of its right, title and interest in the receivables existing in the additional accounts on the applicable addition cut-off date and in the receivables arising thereafter in those accounts, in each case including all Issuer Rate Fees, insurance proceeds, Recoveries, all monies due or to become due, all amounts received or receivable, all collections and all proceeds, each as it relates to such receivables.

Under each purchase agreement, the allocated Issuer Rate Fees for each calendar month is to be paid by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, to the respective purchaser in the second following calendar month. For each calendar month, the allocated Issuer Rate Fees will be an amount equal to the sum of (i) the product of (A) the rate at which Issuer Rate Fees accrued to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, during the second preceding Monthly Period on credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by TRS or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which Issuer Rate Fees did not accrue to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new principal receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the accounts that constitute credit accounts, plus (ii) the product of (A) the rate at which Issuer Rate Fees accrued to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, during the second preceding Monthly Period on charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by TRS or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which Issuer Rate Fees did not accrue to Centurion or FSB, as applicable, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new principal receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the accounts that constitute charge accounts or lines of credit.

Pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement, each of RFC III and RFC IV has assigned all of its right, title and interest in the respective purchase agreement, including its right to enforce the agreement against Centurion or FSB, as applicable, to the trustee, on behalf of the trust.

Representations and Warranties

In each purchase agreement, Centurion or FSB, respectively, represents and warrants to the respective purchaser that, among other things:

• it is validly existing in good standing under the applicable laws of the applicable jurisdiction and has full power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business;

• its execution and delivery of the purchase agreement and its performance of the transactions contemplated by that agreement will not conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms of any material agreement to which it is a party or by which its properties are bound and will not conflict with or violate any requirements of law applicable to it; and

• all governmental authorizations, consents, orders, approvals, registrations or declarations required to be obtained by it in connection with its execution and delivery of, and its performance of the applicable purchase agreement, have been obtained.

96

Repurchase Obligations

In each purchase agreement, each of Centurion and FSB, respectively, makes the following representations and warranties, among others:

• as of the applicable cut-off date with respect to the accounts, the list of accounts and information concerning the accounts provided by it is accurate and complete in all material respects, with certain permitted exceptions;

• each receivable conveyed by it to the respective purchaser has been conveyed free and clear of any lien or encumbrance, except liens permitted by the applicable purchase agreement;

• all governmental authorizations, consents, orders, approvals, registrations or declarations required to be obtained, effected or given by it in connection with the conveyance of receivables to the respective purchaser have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect;

• as of each applicable selection date, each account was an Eligible Account;

• as of each applicable selection date, each of the receivables then existing in the accounts was an Eligible Receivable;

• as of the date of creation of any new receivable, such receivable is an Eligible Receivable; and

• no selection procedures reasonably believed by it to be materially adverse to the interests of the respective purchaser have been used in selecting the accounts.

As described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus, each purchaser, in its capacity as transferor to the trust, makes corresponding representations to the trust and the trustee. The pooling and servicing agreement provides that if a transferor materially breaches any of such representations, subject to certain conditions, such transferor will be required to accept reassignment of the related Ineligible Receivables. The purchase agreements provide that if Centurion or FSB, as applicable, materially breaches any of the representations and warranties described above and, as a result, the respective purchaser is required under the pooling and servicing agreement to accept a reassignment of the related Ineligible Receivables transferred to the trust by such purchaser, then Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will accept reassignment of such Ineligible Receivables and pay to the respective purchaser an amount equal to the unpaid balance of such Ineligible Receivables. See “— Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus.

Reassignment of Other Receivables

Each of Centurion and FSB, as applicable, also represents and warrants in the respective purchase agreement that (a) such purchase agreement and any supplemental conveyance each constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Centurion or FSB, as applicable, and (b) such purchase agreement and any supplemental conveyance constitute a valid sale to the respective purchaser of all right, title and interest of Centurion or FSB, as applicable, of the receivables, including all Issuer Rate Fees, insurance proceeds, Recoveries, all monies due or to become due, all amounts received or receivable, all collections and all proceeds, each as it relates to such receivables, and that the sale is perfected under the applicable UCC. If a representation described in (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence is not true and correct in any material respect and as a result of the breach the respective purchaser is required under the pooling and servicing agreement to accept a reassignment of all of the receivables previously sold by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, pursuant to such purchase agreement, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will accept a reassignment of those receivables. See “— Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus. If Centurion or FSB, as applicable, is required to accept such reassignment, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will pay to the respective purchaser an amount equal to the unpaid balance of the reassigned receivables.

Modifications

Each of Centurion and FSB, as applicable, also agrees in the respective purchase agreement that

97

• except (i) as otherwise required by any requirements of law or (ii) as is deemed by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, to be necessary in order for it to maintain its credit or charge business or a program operated by such credit or charge business on a competitive basis based on a good faith assessment by it of the nature of the competition with respect to such credit or charge business or such program, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the periodic rate finance charges assessed on the receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the accounts if, as a result of any such action, such action would reasonably be expected to cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event to occur under the pooling and servicing agreement based on the insufficiency of Portfolio Yield or any similar test. In addition, except as otherwise required by any requirements of law, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the periodic rate finance charges assessed on the receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the accounts if, as a result of any such action, such action would reasonably be expected to cause the Portfolio Yield under the pooling and servicing agreement to be less than the then-current highest Average Rate for any group.

• subject to compliance with all requirements of law and the bullet above, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, may change the terms and provisions of the account agreements or the credit guidelines applicable to the accounts in any respect (including the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the periodic rate finance charges to be assessed thereon). Notwithstanding the above, unless required by requirements of law or as permitted by the bullet above, Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will not take any action with respect to such account agreements or such credit guidelines which, at the time of such action, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the applicable transferor.

Amendments

The purchase agreements may be amended by Centurion or FSB, as applicable, and the respective purchaser without consent of any investor certificateholders. No amendment, however, may be effective unless:

• written confirmation has been received by such purchaser from each rating agency that the amendment will not result in the reduction, qualification or withdrawal of the respective ratings of each rating agency for any certificates issued by the trust; and

• Centurion or FSB, as applicable, will certify to the respective purchaser that it reasonably believes that the amendment will not cause a Pay-Out Event.

Termination

The purchase agreements will not terminate at least until the earlier of (a) the termination of the trust pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement and (b) an amendment to the pooling and servicing agreement to replace RFC III with an affiliate of RFC III as a transferor under the pooling and servicing agreement or to replace RFC IV with an affiliate of RFC IV as a transferor under the pooling and servicing agreement, as applicable. Nevertheless, if a receiver or conservator is appointed for either of Centurion or FSB or certain other liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar events occur, Centurion or FSB, as the case may be, will cease to transfer receivables to the respective purchaser and promptly give notice of that event to such purchaser and the trustee, unless the receiver, conservator or bankruptcy court instructs otherwise.

Asset Representations Review

As discussed under “Description of the Purchase Agreements — Representations and Warranties” and “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties,” the sponsors and the transferors make certain representations and warranties regarding the receivables and the related accounts. As described below, the asset representations reviewer will be responsible for performing a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent (i.e., 60 days past the date a payment amount is first due under the applicable card member agreement) and the accounts relating to such receivables for compliance with certain of these representations and warranties if the following sequential events occur:

• as of the end of any Monthly Period, the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage equals or exceeds the Delinquency Threshold, as described below under “— Delinquency Event”; and

• the certificateholders have voted to direct a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent and the accounts relating to such receivables for compliance with the ARR Representations and Warranties on the receivables and the accounts, as described below under “— Voting Event.”

Delinquency Event

If, with respect to any Monthly Period, the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage equals or exceeds the Delinquency Threshold, the transferors will disclose such occurrence in the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D relating to such Monthly Period.

The “60-Day Delinquency Percentage” for any Monthly Period will equal the average for the three consecutive Monthly Periods ending with such Monthly Period of the aggregate outstanding balance of receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent, as a percentage of the total receivables outstanding in the Trust Portfolio, in each case as of the end of the applicable Monthly Period. We determined to base the delinquency event on the percentage of receivables in the Trust Portfolio that are more than 60 days contractually delinquent because it is a relatively stable metric by which to measure nonperforming assets at different points in time. We determined to use a rolling three-month average of monthly delinquency percentages because it is a measure of nonperforming assets over a period of time and is, therefore, a better measure of the significance of that nonperformance than is a measure of nonperforming assets at any particular point in time.

The “Delinquency Threshold” will initially equal [●]%, although the Delinquency Threshold will be reviewed and may be adjusted as described below. The initial Delinquency Threshold is calculated as the product of the historical peak percentage of receivables in the Trust Portfolio that were more than 60 days contractually delinquent as of the end of any Monthly Period from [the formation of the trust in May 1996 to [●] 201[●]] ([●]%) and a multiplier of [●].

In determining the manner in which the Delinquency Threshold is calculated, we sought to identify a circumstance when rising delinquencies might begin to cause a reasonable investor concern that the receivables in the Trust Portfolio might not have complied with the representations and warranties made with respect to those receivables in the pooling and servicing agreement and the purchase agreements. We considered two primary factors: (i) the historical peak percentage of receivables in the Trust Portfolio that were more than 60 days contractually delinquent and (ii) the history of repurchase demands for receivables in the Trust Portfolio where the breach of a representation or warranty had been asserted. During the period from [the formation of the trust in May 1996 to [●] 201[●]], the historical peak percentage of receivables in the Trust Portfolio that were more than 60 days contractually delinquent was [●]%. During that same period, neither the trustee nor any certificateholder has made a repurchase demand or asserted a breach of a representation or warranty concerning the receivables. We believe that delinquency percentages that do not exceed the historical peak delinquency percentage by a reasonable margin are far less likely to bear either a causal or a correlative relationship to any putative or actual breaches of representations and warranties concerning delinquent receivables, particularly in the case of the issuing entity, where no repurchase demand has ever been made nor breach of a representation or warranty been asserted. Further, we believe that establishing a reasonable margin above the historical peak delinquency percentage will reduce the likelihood that the Delinquency Threshold is breached due to general fluctuations in consumer credit cycles or other factors, including changes in the macro-economic environment or underwriting decisions, that are unrelated to breaches of representations and warranties. Based on these considerations, we believe that the Delinquency Threshold, calculated as described above, is an appropriate measure to trigger a review by the asset representations reviewer for a securitization platform that was established almost 20 years ago and with no history of repurchase demands.

The Delinquency Threshold will be reviewed and may be adjusted upon the occurrence of either of the following events:

(i)         the filing of a registration statement with the SEC relating to any certificates to be offered and sold from time to time by the transferors, on behalf of the issuing entity; and

(ii)         a change in law or regulation (including any new or revised interpretation of an existing law or regulation) that, in the judgment of the transferors, could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the delinquency rate for cardholder payments on the credit card accounts comprising the master trust portfolio or the manner by which delinquencies are defined or determined;

provided, however, that, once the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage for any Monthly Period exceeds the Delinquency Threshold, a review of the Delinquency Threshold that would otherwise be undertaken as described above will be delayed until the date on which it is first reported in the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D that the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage for the related Monthly Period no longer exceeds the Delinquency Threshold.

In the case of a review undertaken upon the occurrence of an event described in clause (i) above, we may increase or decrease the Delinquency Threshold, including by increasing or decreasing the multiplier used to calculate the Delinquency Threshold, by any amount we reasonably determine to be appropriate based on the composition of the Trust Portfolio at the time of the review. In the case of a review undertaken upon the occurrence of an event described in clause (ii) above, we may increase or decrease the Delinquency Threshold, including by increasing or decreasing the multiplier used to calculate the Delinquency Threshold, by any amount we reasonably determine to be appropriate as a result of the related change in law or regulation. Any adjustment to the Delinquency Threshold will be disclosed in the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D relating to the Monthly Period in which the adjustment occurs, which report will include a description of how the adjusted Delinquency Threshold rate was determined to be appropriate.

Voting Event

Following the disclosure in a monthly distribution report on Form 10-D that the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage with respect to the related Monthly Period exceeded the Delinquency Threshold, investors in the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates and all other outstanding series issued by the issuing entity will have the right to determine whether or not to initiate a vote to direct an asset representations review by providing written notice to the trustee of their desire to initiate such a vote. If any of the certificateholders providing such notice is not a record holder (including if such certificateholder owns a beneficial interest in a certificates in book-entry form), the trustee may require that certificateholder to provide (i) a written certification that it is a beneficial owner of certificates and (ii) one other form of documentation, such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from a broker or dealer or other similar document to verify that the certificateholder is, in fact, a beneficial owner of certificates.

If, within [90] days following the date of disclosure that the Delinquency Threshold has been exceeded, certificateholders holding certificates evidencing not less than 5% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding certificates (excluding any certificates held by the sponsors, the depositors, the servicer or any of their affiliates) provide written notice to the trustee of their desire to initiate a vote, the trustee will promptly provide notice of such occurrence to all certificateholders and commence a solicitation of votes of certificateholders to initiate a review. In addition, the transferors will disclose in the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D relating to the Monthly Period during which the 5% notice threshold was reached that a vote to direct an asset representations review has commenced.

The vote on whether to initiate an asset representations review will be completed within [90] days of the delivery by the trustee of notice to certificateholders that a solicitation of votes has commenced. If, at the end of the [90]-day voting period, certificateholders holding certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding certificates participating in such vote (excluding any certificates held by the sponsors, the depositors, the servicer or any of their affiliates) elect to direct an asset representations review, the trustee will promptly provide notice of such occurrence to the transferors, the servicer and the sponsors, and the servicer will provide notice to the asset representations reviewer. In addition, the transferors will disclose the results of the vote in the trust’s monthly distribution report on Form 10-D relating to the Monthly Period during which the voting period ended.

Asset Representations Review Process

Following receipt of notice from the servicer that certificateholders have voted to direct an asset representations review, the asset representations reviewer will perform a review of all receivables in the Trust Portfolio that were more than 60 days contractually delinquent (and the accounts relating to such receivables), as of the last day of the Monthly Period immediately preceding the monthly period during which the [90]-day voting period ended, for compliance with the ARR Representations and Warranties on such receivables and the accounts. The asset representations review will be performed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the asset representations review agreement.

The asset representations review agreement provides that, in connection with any asset representations review, the servicer will grant the asset representations reviewer access to documentation related to the performance of its review of the applicable accounts and receivables. The servicer will generally grant access to the review documentation within [60] days of the servicer’s notice to the asset representations reviewer, and the asset representations review will generally be completed within [60] days of the asset representations reviewer receiving access to the necessary documentation.

Upon the completion of an asset representations review, the asset representations reviewer will provide a report to the trustee, the sponsors and the transferors of the findings and conclusions of the review of the receivables and the accounts. A summary of the asset representations reviewer’s report will be included in the trust’s distribution report on Form 10-D for the distribution period in which the report is provided to the trustee, the sponsors and the transferors.

The asset representations reviewer will not be the party to determine whether any noncompliance with representations or warranties constitutes a breach of any contractual provision relating to the receivables or the accounts. With respect to any such noncompliance with representations and warranties identified during the asset representations review, the applicable sponsor will be the party to determine whether a contractual breach has occurred relating to the receivables or the accounts.

Asset Representations Reviewer

[            ], a [            ] organized under the laws of [            ], has been engaged to serve as the asset representations reviewer with respect to the receivables in the Trust Portfolio. [Describe to what extent the asset representations reviewer has had prior experience for asset-backed securities transactions involving credit and charge card receivables.]

The asset representations reviewer is not, and so long as the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates are outstanding will not be, affiliated with Centurion, FSB, RFC III, RFC IV, TRS, the trustee or any of their affiliates. The asset representations reviewer is not the same party or an affiliate of any party hired by any sponsor or any underwriter to perform pre-closing due diligence work on the receivables.

99

Other Matters Relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer

The asset representations reviewer will be paid an annual fee of $[●] by the transferors, or the sponsors on behalf of the transferors, in accordance with the asset representations review agreement[, subject to an additional step-up payable if the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage exceeds a specified threshold.] However, the annual fee does not include the fees and expenses payable to the asset representations reviewer in connection with an asset representations review. Under the asset representations review agreement, the asset representations reviewer will be entitled to receive a fee in connection with an asset representations review of [$[●] per hour][insert any other fee methodology agreed upon by the asset representations reviewer and the transferors][, subject to a cap of $[●] per review], which fee will be paid by the transferors, or the sponsors at the direction of the transferors.

The asset representations review agreement provides that the asset representations reviewer will have no liability for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith or for errors in judgment, whether arising from express or implied duties under the asset representations review agreement, with exceptions for liability imposed by reason of the asset representations reviewer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence or its reckless disregard of its obligations. In addition, the asset representations reviewer will be entitled to rely in good faith on the documents provided to it in connection with the performance of its duties under the asset representations review agreement.

The asset representations reviewer will be replaced if it no longer meets the eligibility requirements under the asset representations review agreement. In addition, the transferors may remove and replace the asset representations reviewer (i) in connection with a material breach or failure to perform by the asset representations reviewer under the asset representations review agreement, (ii) in connection with certain bankruptcy events with respect to the asset representations reviewer or (iii) if the asset representations reviewer becomes a competitor of, or an affiliate of a competitor of, American Express.

The asset representations reviewer may not resign as asset representations reviewer except (i) upon determination that (A) the performance of its duties under the asset representations review agreement is no longer permitted under applicable law and (B) there is no reasonable action that it could take to make the performance of its obligations under the asset representations review agreement permitted under applicable law, or (ii) on or after [●] [●], 201[●], upon one year’s written notice. No resignation of the asset representations reviewer will become effective until a successor asset representations reviewer is in place. The expenses associated with changing from one asset representations reviewer to another asset representations reviewer will be paid as agreed upon by the transferors and the asset representations reviewer and will not be paid out of collections received on the trust’s assets.

Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables

Certain Regulatory Matters

The operations and financial condition of Centurion and FSB are subject to extensive regulation and supervision under federal and state law. The appropriate banking regulatory authorities, including the FDIC, OCC, CFPB and UDFI have broad enforcement powers over Centurion and FSB. These enforcement powers may adversely affect the operation and financial condition of the trust and your rights under the pooling and servicing agreement prior to the appointment of a receiver or conservator.

If United States federal bank regulatory authorities supervising any bank were to find that any obligation of such bank or an affiliate under a securitization or other agreement, or any activity of such bank or affiliate, constituted an unsafe or unsound practice or violated any law, rule, regulation or written condition or agreement applicable to the related bank or affiliate, such federal bank regulatory authorities have the power to order such bank or affiliate, among other things, to rescind such agreement or contract, refuse to perform that obligation, terminate the activity, amend the terms of such obligation or take such other action as such regulatory authorities determine to be appropriate. In such an event, the related bank or affiliate may not be liable to you for contractual damages for complying with such an order and no recourse may be available against the relevant regulatory authority.

In one case of which the banks are aware, after the OCC found that a national bank was, contrary to safe and sound banking practices, receiving inadequate servicing compensation under its securitization agreements, that bank agreed to a consent order with the OCC. Such consent order required that bank, among other things, to immediately resign as servicer and to cease performing its duties as servicer within approximately 120 days, to immediately withhold and segregate funds from collections for payment of its servicing fee (notwithstanding the priority of payments in the securitization agreements and the perfected security interest of the relevant trust in those funds) and to increase its servicing fee percentage above that which was originally agreed upon in its securitization agreements.

While Centurion, FSB and their affiliates have no reason to believe that any obligation of Centurion, FSB or an affiliate under the securitization agreements is unsafe or unsound or violative of any law, rule or regulation applicable to them, there can be no assurance that any such regulatory authority would not conclude otherwise in the future. If such a bank regulatory authority did reach such a conclusion, and ordered Centurion, FSB or an affiliate to rescind or amend the securitization agreements, payments to you could be delayed or reduced.

See “Risk Factors — Regulatory action could result in losses” and “— Financial regulatory reforms could adversely impact the trust or your certificates, including by impeding origination or collection efforts, changing account holder use patterns, or reducing collections” in this prospectus.

100

Consumer Protection Laws

The relationship of the consumer and the provider of consumer credit is extensively regulated by federal and state consumer protection laws. With respect to credit accounts issued by Centurion and FSB, the most significant federal laws include the federal Truth in Lending, Equal Credit Opportunity, Fair Credit Reporting and Fair Debt Collection Practices Acts. These statutes impose disclosure requirements before and when an account is opened, at the end of monthly billing cycles and on an annual basis, and, in addition, limit account holder liability for unauthorized use, prohibit certain discriminatory practices in extending credit, and regulate practices followed in collections. In addition, account holders are entitled under these laws to have payments and credits applied to the revolving credit account promptly and to request prompt resolution of billing errors.

In addition, pursuant to the Credit CARD Act, the federal Truth in Lending Act was amended to require advance notice of any changes in interest rates or fees (or other significant changes to the terms of a credit card account), and to prohibit generally rate increases on existing credit card account balances. These and additional amendments to the federal Truth in Lending Act may make it more difficult for the banks to originate additional accounts or for the servicer to collect payments on the receivables, and the finance charges and other fees that the account owners or their affiliates can charge on credit card account balances may be reduced. Furthermore, cardholders may choose to use credit cards less as a result of this legislation. Each of these results, independently or collectively, may reduce the effective yield on the credit card accounts in the Trust Portfolio, which could result in accelerated or reduced payments on your certificates. See “Risk Factors — Changes to consumer protection laws, including in the application or interpretation thereof, may impede origination or collection efforts, change account holder use patterns, or reduce collections, any of which may result in acceleration of or reduction in payment on your certificates” in this prospectus for a more complete description of the Credit CARD Act and the risks associated with it.

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB has examination and enforcement authority with respect to certain federal consumer financial laws for some providers of consumer financial products and services, including American Express, Centurion and FSB. The CFPB is directed to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts or practices, and to ensure that all consumers have access to fair, transparent and competitive markets for consumer financial products and services. The review of products and practices to prevent unfair, deceptive or abusive conduct will be a continuing focus of the CFPB and banking regulators more broadly, as well as American Express’ own internal reviews. Internal and regulatory reviews have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, changes to American Express’ practices, products and procedures. Such reviews are also likely to continue to result in increased costs related to regulatory oversight, supervision and examination, and additional restitution to Card Members and may result in additional regulatory actions, including civil money penalties. In October 2012, American Express announced that it and certain of its subsidiaries reached settlements with several bank regulators, including the CFPB, relating to certain aspects of its U.S. consumer card practices. In December 2013, American Express announced that certain of its subsidiaries reached settlements with several banking regulators, including the CFPB, to resolve regulatory reviews of marketing and billing practices related to several credit card add-on products. For a description of these settlements, see “— Legal Proceedings” below.

The trust may be liable for certain violations of consumer protection laws that apply to the receivables, either as assignee from the transferors with respect to obligations arising before transfer of the receivables to the trust or as the party directly responsible for obligations arising after the transfer. In addition, an account holder may be entitled to assert such violations by way of set-off against the obligation to pay the amount of receivables owing. All receivables that were not created in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of such laws (if such noncompliance has a material adverse effect on the certificateholders’ interest therein) will be reassigned to the transferors. The servicer has also agreed in the pooling and servicing agreement to indemnify the trust, among other things, for any liability arising from such violations caused by its servicing activities. For a discussion of the trust’s rights if the receivables were not created in compliance in all material respects with applicable laws, see “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Representations and Warranties” in this prospectus.

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) allows individuals on active duty in the military to cap the interest rate and fees on debts incurred before the call to active duty at 6%. In addition, subject to judicial discretion, any action or court proceeding in which an individual in military service is involved may be stayed if the individual’s rights would be prejudiced by denial of such a stay. Currently, some accountholders with outstanding

101

balances have been placed on active duty in the military, and more may be placed on active duty in the future. In addition to the requirements of the SCRA, SCRA-covered American Express accountholders receive additional protections for the duration of their active duty status, including: (1) SCRA-eligible balances are subject to an interest rate of 0% for the life of the balance; (2) exclusion from increases to annual fees and annual percentage rates; and (3) exclusion from application of the penalty rate. Additionally, annual membership fees, late payment fees, return payment fees and return ATM fees are waived for covered accountholders for the duration of their active duty status.

Application of federal and state bankruptcy and debtor relief laws would affect the interests of the certificateholders if such laws result in any receivables being charged off as uncollectible. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Defaulted Receivables; Rebates and Fraudulent Charges” in this prospectus.

See “Risk Factors — Financial regulatory reforms could adversely impact the trust or your certificates, including by impeding origination or collection efforts, changing account holder use patterns, or reducing collections” and “— Changes to consumer protection laws, including in the application or interpretation thereof, may impede origination or collection efforts, change account holder use patterns, or reduce collections, any of which may result in acceleration of or reduction in payment on your certificates” in this prospectus.

Legal Proceedings

American Express Company and its affiliates (collectively, “American Express”) are involved in a number of legal and arbitration proceedings, including class actions, arising out of the conduct of their respective business activities. In the course of its business, American Express is also subject to governmental examinations, information gathering requests, subpoenas, inquiries and investigations.

During the last several years as regulatory interest in credit card network pricing to merchants or terms of merchant rules and contracts has increased, American Express has responded to many inquiries from banking and competition authorities throughout the world.

In 2010, the DOJ, along with Attorneys General from Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii (Hawaii has since withdrawn its claim), Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Vermont filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against American Express, MasterCard International Incorporated and Visa, Inc., alleging a violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The complaint alleges that the defendants’ policies prohibiting merchants from steering a customer to use another network’s card, another type of card or another method of payment (“anti-steering” and “non-discrimination” rules and contractual provisions) violate the antitrust laws. The complaint seeks a judgment permanently enjoining the defendants from enforcing their anti-steering and non-discrimination rules and contractual provisions. The complaint does not seek monetary damages.

The DOJ matter was coordinated pre-trial with individual and putative class actions pending in the Eastern District of New York against American Express brought by merchants alleging that the “anti-steering” provisions in its merchant acceptance agreements with the plaintiffs violate federal antitrust laws. As alleged by the plaintiffs, these provisions prevent merchants from steering consumers or offering consumers incentives to use alternative forms of payment when consumers wish to use an American Express-branded card. Plaintiffs seek damages and injunctive relief. Arbitration proceedings raising similar claims also have been filed.

In July 2004, American Express was named as a defendant in a putative class action captioned The Marcus Corporation v. American Express Company, et al., in which the plaintiffs allege an unlawful antitrust tying arrangement between certain of American Express’ charge cards and credit cards in violation of various state and federal laws. The plaintiffs in these actions seek injunctive relief and an unspecified amount of damages.

In December 2013, American Express announced a proposed settlement of the Marcus case and the putative class actions challenging American Express’ “anti-steering” or non-discrimination provisions. The settlement, which provides for certain injunctive relief for the proposed classes, received preliminary approval in the United

102

States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The final approval hearing was held on September 17, 2014 and American Express is awaiting decision.

A non-jury trial in the DOJ matter concluded on August 18, 2014. Closing arguments were held on October 9, 2014 following submission of post-trial proposed findings and briefs. On February 19, 2015, the trial court found that the challenged provisions were anti-competitive and issued an order entering a permanent injunction on April 30, 2015. The injunction will become effective on July 20, 2015. American Express intends to vigorously pursue an appeal of the decision and judgment. A trial date for the individual merchant actions has not been set. Defendants’ motion for summary judgment in the individual merchant actions is pending.

In July 2004, a purported class action complaint, Ross, et al. v. American Express Company, American Express Travel Related Services and American Express Centurion Bank, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that American Express conspired with Visa, MasterCard and Diners Club in the setting of foreign currency conversion rates and in the inclusion of arbitration clauses in certain of their cardholder agreements. The suit seeks injunctive relief and unspecified damages. The class is defined as “all Visa, MasterCard and Diners Club general-purpose cardholders who used cards issued by any of the MDL Defendant Banks.” American Express Card Members are not part of the class. The settlement of the claims asserted on behalf of the damage class concerning foreign currency conversion rates was approved in 2012. On April 10, 2014, following a trial of the claims asserted by the injunction class concerning cardholder arbitration clauses, the Court dismissed plaintiffs’ claims and granted judgment in favor of American Express. Plaintiffs have appealed.

In October 2009, a putative class action, captioned Lopez, et al. v. American Express Bank, FSB and American Express Centurion Bank, was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The amended complaint sought to certify a class of California American Express Card Members whose interest rates were changed from fixed to variable in or around August 2009 or otherwise increased. On August 20, 2014, plaintiffs filed an amended nationwide complaint and an unopposed motion for preliminary approval of a settlement of the claims alleged in that complaint. The settlement provides for certain relief to class members, attorneys’ fees and costs of up to $6 million. On September 22, 2014, the motion for preliminary approval was denied without prejudice to renew. The parties are responding to the Court’s questions regarding the class notice and claims processes and the request for preliminary approval will be renewed.

Tax Matters

Federal Income Tax Consequences — General

The following is a discussion of material federal income tax consequences relating to the investment in a certificate offered hereunder. This discussion is based on current law, which is subject to changes that could prospectively or retroactively modify or adversely affect the tax consequences summarized below. The discussion does not address all of the tax consequences relevant to a particular certificate owner in light of that certificate owner’s circumstances, and some certificate owners may be subject to special tax rules and limitations not discussed below. Further, certificate owners should be aware that this summary and the opinions contained herein may not be able to be relied upon to avoid any income tax penalties that may be imposed with respect to the certificates. Each prospective certificate owner is urged to consult its own tax adviser in determining the federal, state, local and foreign income and any other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of a certificate.

For purposes of this discussion, “U.S. person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or any political subdivision of either (including the District of Columbia), or an estate or trust the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source. The term “U.S. certificate owner” means any U.S. person and any other person to the extent that the income attributable to its interest in a certificate is effectively connected with that person’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business.

Treatment of the Certificates as Debt

The transferors express in the pooling and servicing agreement the intent that for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the certificates will be debt secured by the receivables. The transferors, by entering into the pooling and servicing agreement, and each investor, by the acceptance of a beneficial interest in a certificate, will agree to treat the certificates as debt for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes. However, the pooling and servicing agreement generally refers to the transfer of receivables as a “sale,” and because different criteria are used in determining the non-tax accounting treatment of the transaction, the transferors will treat the pooling and servicing agreement for certain non-tax accounting purposes as causing a transfer of an ownership interest in the receivables and not as creating a debt obligation.

A basic premise of federal income tax law is that the economic substance of a transaction generally determines its tax consequences. The form of a transaction, while a relevant factor, is not conclusive evidence of its economic substance. In appropriate circumstances, the courts have allowed taxpayers as well as the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to treat a transaction in accordance with its economic substance, as determined under federal income tax law, even though the participants in the transaction have characterized it differently for non-tax purposes.

The determination of whether the economic substance of a purchase of an interest in property is instead a loan secured by the transferred property has been made by the IRS and the courts on the basis of numerous factors designed to determine whether the transferor has relinquished (and the purchaser has obtained) substantial incidents of ownership in the property. Among those factors, the primary ones examined are whether the purchaser has the opportunity to gain if the property increases in value, and has the risk of loss if the property decreases in value. Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, special federal income tax counsel to the transferors (“Special Tax Counsel”), is of the opinion that, under current law as in effect on the series closing date, although no transaction closely comparable to that contemplated herein has been the subject of any Treasury regulation, revenue ruling or judicial decision, for federal income tax purposes the certificates offered hereunder will not constitute an ownership interest in the receivables but will properly be characterized as debt. Except where indicated to the contrary, the following discussion assumes that the certificates offered hereunder are debt for federal income tax purposes.

Description of Opinions

As more fully described in this “Tax Matters” section, Special Tax Counsel is of the opinion generally to the effect that the trust will not be subject to federal income tax, and further that the certificates will be characterized as debt for federal income tax purposes. Additionally, Special Tax Counsel is of the opinion generally to the effect that

104

the statements set forth in this section, to the extent that they constitute matters of law or legal conclusions, are correct in all material respects.

Special Tax Counsel has not been asked to opine on any other federal income tax matter, and the balance of this discussion does not purport to set forth any opinion of Special Tax Counsel concerning any other particular federal income tax matter. For example, the discussion of original issue discount below is a general discussion of federal income tax consequences relating to an investment in certificates that are treated as having original issue discount, which discussion Special Tax Counsel opines is correct in all material respects as described above; however, that discussion does not set forth any opinion as to whether any particular series of certificates will be treated as having original issue discount. Additionally, those matters as to which Special Tax Counsel renders opinions should be understood to be subject to the additional considerations in the discussions relating to those opinions set forth below.

Special Tax Counsel has not been asked to, and does not, render any opinion regarding the state or local income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of a beneficial interest in the certificates. See “— State and Local Taxation” below.

This description of the substance of the opinions rendered by Special Tax Counsel is not intended as a substitute for an investor’s review of the remainder of this discussion of income tax consequences, or for consultation with its own advisors or tax return preparer.

Treatment of the Trust

General

The pooling and servicing agreement permits the issuance of certificates and certain other interests (including any collateral interest) in the trust, each of which may be treated for federal income tax purposes either as debt or as equity interests in the trust. If all of the certificates and other interests (other than the original transferor certificate) in the trust were characterized as debt, the trust might be characterized as a security arrangement for debt collateralized by the receivables and issued directly by the transferors (or other holders of the original transferor certificate). Under such a view, the trust would be disregarded for federal income tax purposes. Alternatively, if some of the Transferor Certificates, the certificates and other interests in the trust were characterized as equity therein, the trust might be characterized as a separate entity owning the receivables, issuing its own debt, and jointly owned by the transferors (or other holders of the original transferor certificate) and any other holders of equity interests in the trust. However, special federal income tax counsel is of the opinion that, under current law as in effect on the series closing date, any such entity constituted by the trust will not be an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation.

Possible Treatment of the Trust as a Partnership or a Publicly Traded Partnership

Although, as described above, special federal income tax counsel is of the opinion that the certificates will properly be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes and that the trust will not be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, such opinion does not bind the IRS and thus no assurance can be given that such treatment will prevail. Further, such opinion is made with respect to current law, which is subject to change. If the IRS were to contend successfully that some or all of the Transferor Certificates, the certificates or any other interests in the trust (including any collateral interest) were equity in the trust for federal income tax purposes, all or a portion of the trust could be classified as a partnership or as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for such purposes. Because special federal income tax counsel is of the opinion that the certificates will be characterized as debt for federal income tax purposes and because any holder of an interest in a collateral interest will agree to treat that interest as debt for such purposes, no attempt will be made to comply with any tax reporting requirements that would apply as a result of such alternative characterizations.

If the trust were treated in whole or in part as a partnership in which some or all holders of interests in the publicly offered certificates were partners, that partnership could be classified as a publicly traded partnership, and so could be taxable as a corporation. Further, regulations published by the Treasury Department under the publicly traded partnership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code could cause the trust to constitute a publicly traded

105

partnership even if all holders of interests in publicly offered certificates are treated as holding debt. If the trust were classified as a publicly traded partnership, whether by reason of the treatment of publicly offered certificates as equity or by reason of the publicly traded partnership regulations, it would avoid taxation as a corporation if its income was not derived in the conduct of a “financial business”; however, whether the income of the trust would be so classified is unclear.

Under the Internal Revenue Code and the publicly traded partnership regulations, a partnership will be classified as a publicly traded partnership if equity interests therein are traded on an “established securities market,” or are “readily tradable” on a “secondary market” or its “substantial equivalent.” The transferors have taken and intend to take measures designed to reduce the risk that the trust could be classified as a publicly traded partnership by reason of interests in the trust other than the publicly traded certificates. However, certain of the actions that may be necessary for avoiding the treatment of such interests as “readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” are not fully within the control of the transferors. As a result, there can be no assurance that the measures the transferors intend to take will in all circumstances be sufficient to prevent the trust from being classified as a publicly traded partnership under the publicly traded partnership regulations.

If the trust was treated as a partnership but nevertheless was not treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, that partnership would not be subject to federal income tax. Rather, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the partnership generated through the ownership of the related receivables would be taken into account directly in computing taxable income of the transferors (or the holders of the original transferor certificate) and any certificate owners treated as partners in accordance with their respective partnership interests therein. The amounts and timing of income reportable by any certificate owners treated as partners would likely differ from that reportable by such certificate owners had they been treated as owning debt. In addition, if the trust were treated in whole or in part as a partnership other than a publicly traded partnership, income derived from the partnership by any certificate owner that is a pension fund or other tax-exempt entity may be treated as unrelated business taxable income. Partnership characterization also may have adverse state and local income or franchise tax consequences for a certificate owner. If the trust were treated in whole or in part as a partnership and the number of holders of interests in the publicly offered certificates and other interests in the trust treated as partners equaled or exceeded 100, the transferors may cause the trust to elect to be an “electing large partnership.” The consequence of such election to investors could include the determination of certain tax items at the partnership level and the disallowance of otherwise allowable deductions. No representation is made as to whether such election will be made.

If the arrangement created by the pooling and servicing agreement were treated in whole or in part as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, that entity would be subject to federal income tax at corporate tax rates on its taxable income generated by ownership of the related receivables. That tax could result in reduced distributions to certificate owners. No distributions from the trust would be deductible in computing the taxable income of the corporation, except to the extent that any certificates were treated as debt of the corporation and distributions to the related certificate owners were treated as payments of interest thereon. In addition, distributions to certificate owners not treated as holding debt would be dividend income to the extent of the current and accumulated earnings and profits of the corporation (and certificate owners may not be entitled to any dividends received deduction in respect of such income).

Taxation of U.S. Certificate Owners

Interest and Original Issue Discount

Subject to the discussion in the immediately following paragraph, stated interest on a beneficial interest in a certificate will be includible in gross income in accordance with a U.S. certificate owner’s method of accounting. If the certificates are issued with original issue discount, the provisions of Sections 1271 through 1273 and 1275 of the Internal Revenue Code will apply to the certificates. Under those provisions, a U.S. certificate owner (including a cash basis holder) generally would be required to accrue the original issue discount on its interest in a certificate in income for federal income tax purposes on a constant yield basis, resulting in the inclusion of original issue discount in income somewhat in advance of the receipt of cash attributable to that income. In general, a certificate will be treated as having original issue discount to the extent that its “stated redemption price” exceeds its “issue price,” if such excess equals or exceeds a “de minimis” amount equal to 0.25 percent multiplied by the weighted average life

106

of the certificate (determined by taking into account only the number of complete years following issuance until payment is made for any partial principal payments). Under Section 1272(a)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code, special provisions apply to debt instruments on which payments may be accelerated due to prepayments of other obligations securing those debt instruments. However, no regulations have been issued interpreting those provisions, and the manner in which those provisions would apply to the certificates is unclear, but the application of Section 1272(a)(6) could affect the rate of accrual of original issue discount and could have other consequences to holders of interests in the certificates. Additionally, the IRS could take the position based on Treasury regulations that none of the interest payable on a certificate is “unconditionally payable” and hence that all of such interest should be included in the certificate’s stated redemption price at maturity. If sustained, such treatment should not significantly affect the tax liability of most certificate owners, but prospective U.S. certificate owners should consult their own tax advisers concerning the impact to them in their particular circumstances. The trust intends to take the position that interest on the certificates constitutes “qualified stated interest” and that the above consequences do not apply.

The transferors may sell all or a portion of certain classes of the certificates (including any tranche or subclass of certificates) to one or more of their affiliates, and may have the right while the certificates are so held, subject to certain conditions, to reset the interest rate on those certificates (such certificates, the “retained certificates”). The analysis of the accrual of stated interest on, and the application of the original issue discount provisions of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to, any retained certificates is not completely certain; however, absent an actual sale at a discount equal to or exceeding the applicable “de minimis” amount of original issue discount, the trust generally does not intend to treat retained certificates as having been issued with original issue discount. Certificate owners acquiring retained certificates should consult their advisers with respect to the reporting of interest income in respect of retained certificates, whether retained certificates will be treated as issued with original issue discount, and the effect of any such treatment on them.

Market Discount

A U.S. certificate owner who purchases an interest in a certificate at a discount that exceeds any unamortized original issue discount may be subject to the “market discount” rules of Sections 1276 through 1278 of the Internal Revenue Code. These rules provide, in part, that gain on the sale or other disposition of a certificate and partial principal payments on a certificate are treated as ordinary income to the extent of accrued market discount. The market discount rules also provide for deferral of interest deductions with respect to debt incurred to purchase or carry a certificate that has market discount.

Market Premium

A U.S. certificate owner who purchases an interest in a certificate at a premium may elect to offset the premium against interest income over the remaining term of the certificate in accordance with the provisions of Section 171 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Sale or Exchange of Certificates

Upon a disposition of an interest in a certificate, a U.S. certificate owner generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and the U.S. certificate owner’s adjusted basis in its interest in the certificate. A taxable exchange of a certificate could also occur as a result of the transferors’ substitution of money or investments for receivables. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Defeasance” in this prospectus. Additionally, a U.S. certificate owner may recognize gain or loss as a result of any resetting of the interest rate payable on a retained certificate by the trust. The adjusted basis in the interest in the certificate will equal its cost, increased by any original issue discount or market discount includible in income with respect to the interest in the certificate prior to its sale and reduced by any principal payments previously received with respect to the interest in the certificate and any amortized premium. Subject to the market discount rules, gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the interest in the certificate was held as a capital asset. Capital losses generally may be used only to offset capital gains.

107

3.8% Medicare Tax

Certain non-corporate U.S. certificate owners will be subject to an additional 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include the interest payments and any gain realized with respect to the certificates, less certain deductions. U.S. certificate owners should consult their tax advisors with respect to any consequences of this 3.8% Medicare tax.

Foreign Certificate Owners

Under U.S. federal income tax law now in effect, payment of interest by the trust to a certificate owner who, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a nonresident alien individual or a foreign corporation (a “foreign person”), generally will be considered “portfolio interest” and generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax and withholding tax, provided the interest is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by the foreign person, unless:

(i)         the foreign person actually or constructively owns 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of any transferor entitled to vote (or of a profits or capital interest in the trust if characterized as a partnership),

(ii)         the foreign person is a controlled foreign corporation that is related to a transferor (or the trust if treated as a partnership) through stock ownership,

(iii)         the foreign person is a bank receiving interest described in U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 881(c)(3)(A),

(iv)         such interest is contingent interest described in U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 871(h)(4), or

(v)         the foreign person bears certain relationships to any holder of either (x) the original transferor certificate other than the transferors or (y) any other interest in the trust not properly characterized as debt.

To qualify for the exemption from taxation, the withholding agent, who generally is the last U.S. person in the chain of payment prior to payment to a foreign person, must have received (in the year in which a payment of interest or principal occurs or in either of the two preceding years) a statement that:

(i)         is signed by the foreign person under penalties of perjury,

(ii)         certifies that the foreign person is not a U.S. person, and

(iii)         provides the name and address of, and certain additional information concerning, the foreign person.

The statement generally may be made on a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or substantially similar substitute form), and the foreign person must inform the withholding agent of any change in the information on the statement within 30 days of the change. If a certificate is held through a securities clearing organization or certain other financial institutions, the organization or institution may provide a signed statement to the withholding agent. However, in that case, the signed statement generally must be accompanied by a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or substitute form) provided by the foreign person to the organization or institution holding the certificate on behalf of the foreign person. If interest is not portfolio interest, then it will be subject to U.S. federal income and withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless reduced or eliminated under an applicable tax treaty or interest is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and, in either case, the appropriate statement has been provided. Special rules apply to partnerships, estates and trusts, and in certain circumstances certifications as to foreign status and other matters may be required to be provided by partners and beneficiaries thereof.

108

Generally, any gain or income realized by a foreign person upon retirement or disposition of an interest in a certificate will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that:

(i)         in the case of a certificate owner that is an individual, such certificate owner is not present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which such retirement or disposition occurs,

(ii)         in the case of gain representing accrued interest, the conditions for exemption from withholding described above are satisfied, and

(iii)         such gain is not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the foreign person.

Certain exceptions may be applicable, and an individual foreign person is cautioned to consult a tax advisor.

If the certificates were treated as an interest in a partnership, the recharacterization could cause a non-U.S. certificate owner to be treated as engaged in a trade or business in the United States. In that event, the non-U.S. certificate owner would be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return and, in general, would be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including the branch profits tax) on its net income from the partnership. Further, certain withholding obligations apply with respect to income allocable or distributions made to a foreign partner. That withholding may be at a rate as high as the highest applicable marginal rate. If some or all of the certificates were treated as stock in a corporation, any related dividend distributions to a non-U.S. certificate owner generally would be subject to withholding of tax at the rate of 30 percent, unless that rate were reduced by an applicable tax treaty.

The U.S. Treasury Department has issued final Treasury regulations which revise various procedural matters relating to withholding taxes. Certificate owners are cautioned to consult their tax advisors regarding the procedures whereby they may establish an exemption from withholding.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Payments of principal and interest, as well as payments of proceeds from the sale, retirement or other disposition of a certificate, may be subject to “backup withholding” tax under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code if a recipient of such payments fails to furnish to the payor certain identifying information. Any amounts deducted and withheld would be allowed as a credit against such recipient’s U.S. federal income tax, provided that appropriate proof is provided under rules established by the IRS. Furthermore, certain penalties may be imposed by the IRS on a recipient of payments that is required to supply information but that does not do so in the proper manner. Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and financial institutions. Information may also be required to be provided to the IRS concerning payments, unless an exemption applies. Certificate owners are cautioned to consult their tax advisors regarding their qualification for exemption from backup withholding and information reporting and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Holders of interests in certificates that are not United States persons should be aware of recent legislation commonly known as FATCA and related administrative guidance that impose a 30% United States withholding tax on certain payments (including interest payments in respect of certificates and, beginning January 1, 2017, gross proceeds, including the return of principal, from the sale or other disposition, including redemptions, of certificates) made to a non-United States entity that fails to take required steps to provide information regarding its “United States accounts” or its direct or indirect “substantial United States owners,” as applicable, or to certify that it has no such accounts or owners. Various exceptions are provided under the legislation and related administrative guidance. To comply with the requirements of FATCA, the trustee or the paying agent may, in appropriate circumstances, require holders of interests in certificates to provide information and tax documentation regarding their direct and indirect owners. The trust will not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to “gross up” payments to holders of interests in certificates as a result of any withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or government charges with respect to payments in respect of the certificates. Prospective

109

investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application and impact of FATCA based upon their particular circumstances.

State and Local Taxation

The discussion above does not address the taxation of the trust or the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership or disposition of an interest in the certificates under any state or local tax law. Each investor is cautioned to consult its own tax advisor regarding state and local tax consequences.

ERISA Considerations

Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code prohibit a Plan from engaging in certain transactions involving “plan assets” with persons that are “parties in interest” under ERISA or “disqualified persons” under the Internal Revenue Code, collectively, “parties in interest,” with respect to the Plan. A violation of these “prohibited transaction” rules may generate excise tax and other liabilities under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code for such persons, unless a statutory, regulatory or administrative exemption is available. Plans that are government plans (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA) are not subject to ERISA requirements.

Moreover, prohibited transactions could also arise if the trust assets were deemed to constitute “plan assets” of any Plan that owned certificates. The Department of Labor has issued a final regulation, referred to as the plan asset regulation, concerning the definition of what constitutes “plan assets” of a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the plan asset regulation, the assets and properties of corporations, partnerships and certain other entities in which a Plan makes an investment in an “equity interest” could be deemed to be “plan assets” of the Plan in certain circumstances. Accordingly, if Plans (or other entities whose assets include “plan assets”) purchase certificates, the trust could be deemed to hold “plan assets” and result in non-exempt prohibited transactions, unless either of the following exceptions applies.

Publicly-Offered Security

The first exception applies to a “publicly-offered security.” A publicly-offered security is a security that is:

(i)         freely transferable,

(ii)         part of a class of securities that is owned, immediately subsequent to the initial offering, by 100 or more investors who are independent of the issuer and of one another, and

(iii)         either is:

(A)         part of a class of securities registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or

(B)         sold to the Plan as part of an offering of securities to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the class of securities of which such security is a part is registered under the Exchange Act within 120 days (or such later time as may be allowed by the SEC) after the end of the fiscal year of the issuer during which the offering of such securities to the public occurred.

For purposes of the 100 independent investor criterion, each class of certificates should be deemed to be a “class” of securities that would be tested separately from any other securities that may be issued by the trust.

110

The Department of Labor Authorization

In addition, a second exception may be available. On July 16, 2000, the Department of Labor authorized Centurion and RFC II (as the transferors to the trust at the time) to rely upon the exemptive relief from certain of the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code available under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 96-62 relating to (i) the initial purchase, the holding and the subsequent resale by Plans of classes of senior certificates representing an undivided interest in a credit card trust with respect to which Centurion, RFC II or any of their affiliates is the sponsor, and (ii) the servicing, operation and management of such trust if, in either case, the general conditions and certain other conditions set forth in the authorization are satisfied.

The authorization will apply to the acquisition, holding and resale of senior certificates by, on behalf of or with “plan assets” of a Plan if the conditions are met.

Among the conditions that must be satisfied for the authorization to apply are the following:

(a)         the acquisition of the senior certificates by a Plan is on terms (including the price for such senior certificates) that are at least as favorable to the investing Plan as they would be in an arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated party;

(b)         the rights and interests evidenced by the senior certificates acquired by the Plan are not subordinated to the rights and interests evidenced by other certificates of the trust;

(c)         the senior certificates acquired by the Plan have received a rating at the time of such acquisition that is either in one of the two highest generic rating categories from a Rating Agency or, for senior certificates that have a maturity of one year or less, the highest short-term generic rating category from a Rating Agency; provided that, notwithstanding such rating, credit support is provided to the senior certificates through a senior-subordinated structure or other form of third-party credit support which, at a minimum, represents 5% of the outstanding principal balance of the senior certificates at the time of such acquisition;

(d)         the trustee is not an affiliate of any member of the restricted group (as defined below);

(e)         the sum of all payments made to and retained by the underwriters in connection with the distribution of the senior certificates represents not more than reasonable compensation for underwriting such senior certificates; the consideration received by the transferors as a consequence of the assignment of receivables to the trust, to the extent allocable to the senior certificates, represents not more than the fair market value of such receivables; and the sum of all payments made to and retained by the servicer, to the extent allocable to the senior certificates, represents not more than reasonable compensation for the servicer’s services under the related supplement to the pooling and servicing agreement and reimbursement of the servicer’s reasonable expenses in connection therewith;

(f)         the Plan investing in the senior certificates is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D of the Securities Act;

(g)         the trustee is a substantial financial institution or trust company experienced in trust activities; is familiar with its duties, responsibilities and liabilities as a fiduciary under ERISA; and, as the legal owner of (or holder of a perfected security interest in) the receivables, enforces all the rights created in favor of the certificateholders, including Plans;

(h)         prior to the issuance of any new series, confirmation is received from the Rating Agencies that such issuance will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then current rating of the senior certificates held by any Plan pursuant to the authorization;

111

(i)         to protect against fraud, chargebacks or other dilution of the receivables, the pooling and servicing agreement and the Rating Agencies require the transferors to maintain a transferors’ interest of not less than 2% of the principal balance of the receivables contained in the trust;

(j)         each receivable is an Eligible Receivable, based on criteria of the Rating Agencies and as specified in the pooling and servicing agreement, and the pooling and servicing agreement requires that any change in the terms of the cardholder agreements must be made applicable to a comparable segment of accounts which are owned or serviced by Centurion, RFC II or any of their affiliates and are part of the same program or have the same or substantially similar characteristics. The pooling and servicing agreement complies with this condition by specifying that any such change either must be required by law, or, if not so required, must not have a material adverse effect on the trust or the certificateholders;

(k)         the pooling and servicing agreement must limit the number of receivables in newly originated accounts to be designated to the trust, without the Rating Agencies’ prior written consent, to the following amounts: (i) with respect to any three-month period, 15% of the number of existing accounts designated to the trust as of the first day of such period, and (ii) with respect to any twelve-month period, 20% of the number of existing accounts designated to the trust as of the first day of such twelve-month period. The pooling and servicing agreement complies with this condition by specifying that the Rating Agencies’ prior written consent is required for any designation of newly originated accounts to the trust;

(l)         the pooling and servicing agreement requires the transferors to deliver an opinion of counsel semiannually confirming the validity and perfection of the transfer of receivables in newly originated accounts to the trust if such an opinion is not delivered with respect to each interim addition; and

(m)         the pooling and servicing agreement requires the transferors and the trustee to receive confirmation from each Rating Agency that such Rating Agency will not reduce or withdraw its then-current rating of the senior certificates as a result of (i) a proposed transfer of receivables in newly originated accounts to the trust, or (ii) will have resulted from the transfer of receivables in all newly originated accounts added to the trust during the preceding three-month period (beginning at quarterly intervals specified in the pooling and servicing agreement and ending in the calendar month prior to the date such confirmation is issued); provided that a rating agency confirmation shall not be required under clause (ii) for any three-month period in which any transfers of newly originated accounts occurred only after receipt of prior rating agency confirmation pursuant to clause (i) above. This condition is complied with because the pooling and servicing agreement currently in effect permits the transferors to transfer newly originated accounts to the trust only in compliance with clause (i) above.

The trust also must meet the following requirements:

(1)         the corpus of the trust must consist only of receivables of the type which have been included in other investment pools;

(2)         certificates evidencing interests in such other investment pools have been rated in one of the two highest generic rating categories by at least one of the rating agencies for at least one year prior to the Plan’s acquisition of senior certificates; and

(3)         certificates evidencing an interest in such other investment pools have been purchased by investors other than Plans for at least one year prior to any Plan’s acquisition of senior certificates.

Moreover, the authorization provides relief from certain self-dealing/ conflict-of-interest prohibited transactions that may occur when a Plan fiduciary causes a Plan to acquire senior certificates if the fiduciary (or its affiliate) is an obligor on the receivables held in the trust; provided that among other requirements:

(1)         in the case of an acquisition in connection with the initial issuance of senior certificates, at least 50% of each class of certificates in which Plans have invested is acquired by persons independent of the

112

restricted group and at least 50% of the aggregate interest in the trust is acquired by persons independent of the restricted group;

(2)         such fiduciary (or its affiliate) is an obligor with respect to 0.5% or less of the fair market value of the obligations contained in the trust;

(3)         the Plan’s investment in senior certificates does not exceed 25% of all of the senior certificates outstanding after the acquisition; and

(4)         no more than 25% of the assets of the Plan are invested in securities representing an interest in one or more trusts containing assets sold or serviced by the same entity.

The authorization does not apply to Plans sponsored by the “restricted group” which consists of the transferors, any underwriter of the senior certificates, the trustee, the servicer, any obligor with respect to obligations included in the trust constituting more than 0.5% of the fair market value of the aggregate undivided interest in the trust allocated to the senior certificates of a series, determined on the date of the initial issuance of such series, or any affiliate of any such party.

The DOL has designated this authorization as an “underwriter exemption.” As a result, an insurance company investing solely assets of its general account may be able to acquire and hold certain subordinated certificates of a series; provided that (i) the senior certificates of that series are eligible for relief under the authorization and (ii) such acquisition and holding satisfies the conditions applicable under Sections I and III of DOL PTCE 95-60.

The transferors believe that the authorization will apply to the acquisition and holding of the Class A certificates by Plans and that all conditions of the authorization, other than those that are within the control of the investors, will be met.

Moreover, as discussed above, while special federal income tax counsel has given its opinion that the certificates will properly be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes, if any certificates are treated as equity interests in a partnership in which other certificates are debt, all or part of a tax-exempt investor’s share of income from the certificates that are treated as equity could be treated as unrelated debt-financed income under the Internal Revenue Code taxable to the investor.

Class A Certificates

Subject to the considerations described above, the Class A certificates may be purchased by, on behalf of, or with “plan assets” of any Plan. Any Plan fiduciary that proposes to cause a Plan to acquire any of the Class A certificates should consult with its counsel with respect to the potential consequences of the Plan’s acquisition and ownership of such Class A certificates under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code.

Class B Certificates

The Class B certificates may not be acquired or held by, on behalf of, or with “plan assets” of any Plan other than insurance companies investing solely assets of their general accounts. By its acceptance of a Class B certificate, each Class B certificateholder will be deemed to have represented and warranted that either (i) it is not and will not be, and is not acquiring the Class B certificates with “plan assets” of, a Plan or (ii) it is an insurance company, it acquired and will hold the Class B certificates solely with assets of its general account, and such acquisition and holding satisfies the conditions applicable under Sections I and III of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60. Each person that proposes to cause an insurance company to acquire any of the Class B certificates should consult with its counsel with respect to the potential consequences of the acquisition and ownership of such Class B certificates under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code.

113

Consultation With Counsel

In light of the foregoing, fiduciaries of Plans (or other entities whose assets include “plan assets”) considering the purchase of Class A certificates should consult their own counsel as to whether the acquisition of such Class A certificates would constitute or result in a prohibited transaction, whether trust assets which are represented by such Class A certificates would be considered “plan assets,” the consequences that would apply if the trust assets were considered “plan assets,” the applicability of exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules under the two exceptions described above or otherwise and the applicability of the tax on unrelated business income and unrelated debt-financed income.

Finally, Plan fiduciaries and other Plan investors should consider the fiduciary standards under ERISA or other applicable law in the context of the Plan’s particular circumstances before authorizing an investment of a portion of the Plan’s assets in the Class A certificates. Accordingly, among other factors, Plan fiduciaries and other Plan investors should consider whether the investment (i) satisfies the diversification requirement of ERISA or other applicable law, (ii) is in accordance with the Plan’s governing instruments, (iii) is prudent in light of the “Risk Factors” discussed in this prospectus and (iv) where applicable, satisfies the requirements of any other applicable law.

Underwriting

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement among the transferors, American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB and the underwriters of the Class A certificates named below and the underwriters of the Class B certificates named below, the transferors have agreed to cause the trust to sell to the underwriters, and the underwriters have agreed to purchase, the principal amount of the Class A certificates and Class B certificates set forth opposite their names:

Underwriters of the Class A Certificates	Aggregate Principal Amount of Class A Certificates
[A Co.]		$[●]
[B Co.]		[●]
[C Co.]		[●]
Total		$[●]
Underwriters of the Class B Certificates	Aggregate Principal Amount of Class B Certificates
[A Co.]		$[●]
[B Co.]		[●]
[C Co.]		[●]
Total		$[●]

The underwriting agreement provides that the obligation of the Class A underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the Class A certificates and the obligation of the Class B underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the Class B certificates are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. All of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates offered hereby will be issued if any are issued. Offering expenses are estimated to be $[●].

The Class A underwriters propose initially to offer the Class A certificates to the public at the price set forth on the cover page hereof and to certain dealers at such price less concessions not in excess of [●]% of the principal amount of the Class A certificates. The Class A underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, concessions not in excess of [●]% of the principal amount of the Class A certificates to certain brokers and dealers. After the initial public offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed by the Class A underwriters.

The Class B underwriters propose initially to offer the Class B certificates to the public at the price set forth on the cover page hereof and to certain dealers at such price less concessions not in excess of [●]% of the principal amount of the Class B certificates. The Class B underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, concessions not in excess of [●]% of the principal amount of the Class B certificates to certain brokers and dealers. After the initial public offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed by the Class B underwriters.

The underwriters may engage in over-allotment transactions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids with respect to the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Over-allotment transactions involve syndicate sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a syndicate short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates originally sold by such syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction. Such over-allotment transactions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate-covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the prices of the Series 201[●]-[●] certificates to be higher than they would be in the absence of such transactions. Neither the transferors nor any of

115

the underwriters represent that the underwriters will engage in any such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice at any time.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the underwriters and their respective affiliates have engaged and may in the future engage in investment banking or commercial banking transactions with the transferors, TRS, Centurion, FSB or any of their affiliates.

Centurion, on behalf of itself and RFC III, and FSB, on behalf of itself and RFC IV, will indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

Annex I

The Trust Portfolio

The information provided in this Annex I forms an integral part of the prospectus.

General

The primary assets of the trust are receivables generated from time to time in a portfolio of designated consumer American Express credit card accounts and Pay Over Time revolving credit features associated with charge card accounts and, in the future, may include other charge or credit accounts or products.

The accounts in the Trust Portfolio were selected from the Total Portfolio based upon the eligibility criteria specified in the purchase agreements and the pooling and servicing agreement applied with respect to the accounts as of their selection date. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Conveyance of Receivables,” “— Addition of Accounts or Participation Interests” and “Risk Factors — Addition of accounts to the trust may decrease the credit quality of the assets securing the repayment of your certificates. If this occurs, your receipt of payments of principal and interest may be reduced, delayed or accelerated” in this prospectus for a discussion of those eligibility criteria. Subject only to these criteria and any applicable regulatory guidelines, the account owners have the discretion to select the accounts in the Total Portfolio for addition to the Trust Portfolio. The account owners have in the past considered, and may in the future consider, factors such as product type, tenure of an account and interest rate applicable to an account in determining the accounts to be added to the Trust Portfolio. Set forth below is certain information with respect to the Trust Portfolio. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses” and “The Accounts” in this prospectus.

The Trust Portfolio’s yield, loss, delinquency and payment rate is comprised of segments which may, when taken individually, have yield, loss, delinquency and payment rate characteristics different from those of the overall Trust Portfolio. There can be no assurance that the yield, loss, delinquency and payment rate experience relating to the receivables in the Trust Portfolio in the future will be comparable to the historical experience relating to the receivables in the Trust Portfolio set forth below.

Loss and Delinquency Experience

The following tables set forth the loss and delinquency experience for the Trust Portfolio for each of the periods shown. The loss and delinquency rates at any time reflect, among other factors, the quality of the Trust Portfolio, the average seasoning of the accounts, the success of the account owners’ collection efforts, the product mix of the Trust Portfolio and general economic conditions.

The following table sets forth the loss experience for the Trust Portfolio for each indicated period. Total gross charge-offs include charge-offs of principal receivables only, and do not include any charge-offs of finance charge and fee receivables or the amount of any reductions in principal receivables due to a rebate, refund, error, fraudulent charge or other miscellaneous adjustment described under “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Defaulted Receivables; Rebates and Fraudulent Charges.” If finance charge and fee receivables that have been charged-off were included in total gross charge-offs, total gross charge-offs would be higher as an absolute number and as a percentage of the average principal receivables outstanding during the periods indicated. Recoveries are collections received in respect of charged-off accounts in the Trust Portfolio during the period indicated in the following table. Total recoveries for each indicated period include recoveries of principal, finance charges and certain fees for that period. Under the pooling and servicing agreement, recoveries are treated as collections of finance charge receivables. Total net charge-offs are an amount equal to total gross charge-offs minus total recoveries, each for the applicable period. Average principal receivables outstanding for each indicated period is the average of the month-end principal receivables balances for that period. We cannot provide any assurance that the loss experience for the receivables in the Trust Portfolio in the future will be similar to the historical experience set forth below.

The following tables set forth the delinquency experience for the Trust Portfolio for each indicated period. With respect to the “Average Receivables Delinquent as a Percentage of the Trust Portfolio” table below, the average receivables delinquent is the average of the month-end delinquent amounts, while the average receivables outstanding is the average of month-end receivables balances, each for the applicable period. With respect to the “Average Number of Delinquent Accounts as a Percentage of the Trust Portfolio” table below, the average number of delinquent accounts is the average of the month-end delinquent accounts, while the average number of outstanding accounts is the average of total month-end accounts, each for the applicable period. We cannot provide any assurance that the delinquency experience for the receivables in the Trust Portfolio in the future will be similar to the historical experience set forth below.

Revenue Experience

The following table sets forth the revenue experience for the Trust Portfolio from total finance charge and fee collections for each indicated period. Total finance charge and fee collections set forth in the table below include periodic finance charges, cash advance fees, annual membership fees, other fees, discount option yield, Issuer Rate Fees and recoveries on charged-off accounts. Under the pooling and servicing agreement, recoveries on charged-off accounts are treated as collections of finance charge receivables. Starting in the June 2009 Monthly Period, the transferors began transferring receivables to the trust at a discount based on a discount percentage equal to (i) 6.0% during the June 2009 Monthly Period, (ii) 3.0% during the July 2009 Monthly Period, (iii) 2.0% starting in the August 2009 Monthly Period and continuing through the last day of the January 2010 Monthly Period, and (iv) 1.0% starting in the February 2010 Monthly Period and continuing through the last day of the July 2010 Monthly Period, at which time the discount percentage was reduced to 0.0%. Collections of receivables designated as discount option receivables during this period were first received in the July 2009 Monthly Period, and collections on those discount option receivables ceased in the February 2012 Monthly Period. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement Generally — Discount Option” and “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses — Issuer Rate Fees” in this prospectus. There can be no assurance that the revenues for the Trust Portfolio in the future will be similar to the historical experience of the Trust Portfolio set forth below.

Revenue experience from total finance charge and fee collections results from dividing total finance charges and fee collections by the average principal receivables outstanding. The average principal receivables outstanding for each indicated period is the average of the month-end principal receivables balances for that period.

The trust first received collections of those receivables, designated as discount option receivables, in the July 2009 Monthly Period, and such collections ceased in the February 2012 Monthly Period.

A-I-3

The historical revenue figures for the Trust Portfolio shown in the table above include interest on purchases and cash advances and fees collected from holders of the accounts during the applicable month. Revenues from finance charges and fees collected will be affected by numerous factors, including the periodic finance charges on the receivables, the amount of fees paid by account holders, the percentage of account holders who pay off their balances in full each month and do not incur periodic finance charges on purchases and change in the level of delinquencies on the receivables. Revenues related to finance charges and fees also depend on the types of charges and fees assessed by the account owners on the accounts in the Trust Portfolio. Accordingly, revenues will be affected by future changes in the types of charges and fees assessed on the accounts and other factors. See “Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables — Consumer Protection Laws” in this prospectus. None of the servicer, any account owner or any of their respective affiliates has any basis to predict how future changes in the use of the accounts by account holders or in the terms of accounts may affect the revenue for the Trust Portfolio.

Principal Payment Rates

The following table sets forth the highest and lowest account holder monthly principal payment rates for the Trust Portfolio during any month in the period shown and the average account holder monthly principal payment rates for all months during each period shown, calculated as the percentage equivalent of a fraction. The monthly principal payment rates for each month is calculated as the amount of principal payments from account holders (excluding recoveries on charged-off receivables) as posted to the accounts during the applicable month divided by the aggregate amount of principal receivables outstanding as of the beginning of the applicable month, normalized for a 30-day month by dividing the resulting rate by the actual number of days in the applicable month and multiplying the result by 30. In addition, as of the [        ] months ended [        ], 201[  ], and with regard to the prior month’s statement only, [        ]% of the accounts in the Trust Portfolio had account holders that made only the minimum payment due under the terms of the related account agreement, and [        ]% of the accounts in the Trust Portfolio had account holders that paid their full balance under the terms of the related account agreement. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Businesses — Billing and Payments” in this prospectus for a description of how minimum payments are calculated.

The following tables, together with the paragraph under “— Composition by Geographic Distribution,” summarize the Trust Portfolio by various criteria as of [        ], 201[  ]. Because the future composition of the Trust Portfolio may change over time, these tables are not necessarily indicative of the composition of the Trust Portfolio at any time subsequent to [        ], 201[  ].

Not more than 5% of the receivables related to account holders have billing addresses in any other single state.

Composition by Standardized Credit Score

Trust Portfolio

The following table sets forth the composition of the Trust Portfolio as of [        ], 201[  ] by FICO^®* score ranges. To the extent available, FICO scores are obtained at origination and monthly thereafter. A FICO score is a measurement determined by Fair Isaac Corporation using information collected by the major credit bureaus to assess consumer credit risk. FICO risk scores rank-order consumers according to the likelihood that their credit obligations will be paid in accordance with the terms of their accounts. Although Fair Isaac Corporation discloses only limited information about the variables it uses to assess credit risk, those variables likely include, but are not limited to, debt level, credit history, payment patterns (including delinquency experience), and level of utilization of available credit. FICO scores of an individual may change over time, depending on the conduct of the individual, including the individual’s usage of his or her available credit and changes in credit score technology used by Fair Isaac Corporation.

* FICO^® is a registered trademark of Fair Isaac Corporation.

A-I-6

FICO scores are based on independent, third-party information, the accuracy of which we cannot verify. The account owners do not use standardized credit scores, such as a FICO score, alone to determine the amount of charges that should be approved on a credit card account. Rather, a FICO score is only one of many factors used by Centurion and FSB, as account owners, to assess an individual’s credit and default risk. In connection with their underwriting and authorization decisions, the account owners use proprietary scoring models, which they generally have found to be more accurate predictors of credit and default risk than any single standardized credit score such as FICO. The use of proprietary models also enables an account owner to extend credit to an account holder with a lower FICO score without changing the account owner’s risk tolerance than would be the case if the account owner relied solely on FICO. See “Centurion’s and FSB’s Revolving Credit Business — Underwriting and Authorization Procedures” in this prospectus. The FICO scores presented below should not be used alone as a method of forecasting whether account holders will make payments in accordance with the terms of their accounts. References to “Receivables Outstanding” in the following table include both finance charge receivables and principal receivables. Because the future composition of the Trust Portfolio may change over time, this table is not necessarily indicative of the composition of the Trust Portfolio at any specific time in the future.

Static Pool Information

Static pool information regarding the performance of the receivables in the Trust Portfolio is provided in Annex II to this prospectus, which forms an integral part of this prospectus.

A-I-7

Annex II

Static Pool Information

The information provided in this Annex II forms an integral part of the prospectus.

The Trust Portfolio is comprised of designated consumer American Express credit card accounts and Pay Over Time revolving credit features associated with charge card accounts owned by Centurion and FSB.

The following tables present charge-off, delinquency, payment rate and revenue experience of the Trust Portfolio. Due to the nature of the receivables in the Trust Portfolio, the following tables do not include information relating to (i) prepayments, because the concept of prepayments is not an applicable consideration beyond payment rate data, which is provided, or (ii) standardized credit scores, because credit decisions are being made on an ongoing basis based on continuously evolving obligor credit scores.

Data is presented in the following tables in separate increments based on the calendar year of origination of the accounts, each an “Origination Segment.” Data is presented for the five most recent Origination Segments [and for the portion of the current Origination Segment ended [            ], 201[_]]. As used in the tables, the date of origination is generally either the date the account became effective or was first used. The account aging shows activity through the indicated age of the account (e.g., 0-12 months, 13-24 months), which is referred to in this Annex II as the “performance period.” In the following tables, highlighted data is based on a full 12 months of activity for all accounts in the applicable Origination Segment and, therefore, will not change in future disclosures. The data that is not highlighted will change in future disclosures and, in some cases, will reflect activity in an account for less than 12 full months, depending on when the account is originated and when the data for that disclosure is generated.

As of [            ], 201[_], the accounts reflected in the following tables had receivables outstanding that were approximately [__]% of the total receivables outstanding in the Trust Portfolio at such date.

Item 15. Undertakings

A.         Undertaking pursuant to Rule 415.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)         To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)  To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that:

II-5

(A)       Paragraphs A.(1)(i), A.(1)(ii) and A.(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by such registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of this registration statement; and

(B)       Paragraphs A.(1)(i) and A.(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment is provided pursuant to Item 1100(c) of Regulation AB.

(2)       That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)       To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)       That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

If such registrant is relying on Rule 430D:

(A)       Each prospectus filed by such registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) and (h) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B)       Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430D relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(vii) or (a)(1)(xii) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77j(a)) shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430D, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5)         That, for the purpose of determining liability of such registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

II-6

Each undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of such registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, such registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to the purchaser:

(i)  Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(6)       If a registrant is relying on Rule 430D, with respect to any offering of securities registered on Form SF-3, to file the information previously omitted from the prospectus filed as part of an effective registration statement in accordance with Rule 424(h) and Rule 430D.

B.         Undertaking in respect of filings incorporating subsequent Exchange Act documents by reference.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of such registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C.         Request for Acceleration of Effective Date.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of each registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, such registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by such registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of such registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, such registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question

II-7

whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

D.         Undertaking pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act of 1933.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1)       For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by such registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2)       For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

E.         Filings Regarding Asset-Backed Securities Incorporating by Reference Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Third Parties.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of a third party that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement in accordance with Item 1100(c)(1) of Regulation AB shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

[Name(s) and Address(es) of Representative(s)]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, AMERICAN EXPRESS RECEIVABLES FINANCING CORPORATION III LLC and AMERICAN EXPRESS RECEIVABLES FINANCING CORPORATION IV LLC (each, a “Transferor”; together, the “Transferors”), have authorized the issuance and sale to you and to the underwriters named in Schedule A hereto (the “Underwriters”) of $[●] (aggregate principal amount) Class A Series 201[●]-[●] [Floating][Fixed] Rate Asset Backed Certificates (the “Class A Certificates”), and $[●] (aggregate principal amount) Class B Series 201[●]-[●] [Floating][Fixed] Rate Asset Backed Certificates (the “Class B Certificates” and, together with the Class A Certificates, the “Certificates”). The Certificates will be issued pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of [●] [●], 201[●], as amended from time to time and as supplemented by the Series 201[●]-[●] Supplement thereto, to be dated as of [●] [●], 201[●] (together, the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the Transferors, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. (“TRS”), as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Certificates are more fully described in the Registration Statement (defined below).

Each Certificate will represent an undivided interest in certain assets of the American Express Credit Account Master Trust (the “Trust”). The property of the Trust will include, among other things, receivables (the “Receivables”) generated from time to time in a portfolio of designated consumer American Express^® credit card and Sign and Travel^®/Extended Payment Option^SM revolving credit accounts or features and other credit or charge accounts (the “Accounts”) owned by American Express Centurion Bank (“Centurion Bank”), American Express Bank, FSB (“FSB” and, together with Centurion Bank, the “Banks”) or any other Account Owner (as such term is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement).

Each capitalized term used, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement and each Receivables Purchase Agreement are each sometimes referred to herein as a “Transaction Document.”

1. Representations, Warranties and Agreements of the Transferors and TRS. Each of the Transferors, as to and for itself only, and TRS, solely with respect to Section 1(s), represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriters as follows:

(a) The Transferors have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), on Form SF-3, a registration statement (Registration Nos. 333-205964, 333-205964-01 and 333-205964-02) relating to the Certificates, including a form of prospectus pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Transferors may have filed one or more amendments thereto, each of which has been furnished to the Representatives. [The Registration Statement (defined below) has been declared effective by the Commission and is effective under the Act.] The Transferors will also file with the Commission a prospectus in accordance with Rule 424 under the Act. As filed, the registration statement, as amended, the form of prospectus, and any prospectuses (as amended or supplemented, if applicable) filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act relating to the Certificates shall, except to the extent that the Representatives shall agree in writing to a modification, be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to you prior to the Execution Time (defined below) or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond those contained in the latest preliminary prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if applicable) which has previously been furnished to the Underwriters) as the Transferors shall have advised the Underwriters, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Effective Date” means the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto, if any, was declared effective by the Commission or the most recent effective date as of which the Prospectus (as defined below) is deemed to be part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430D under the Act. Such registration statement, as amended as of the Effective Date, and including the exhibits thereto, any material incorporated by reference therein and all information deemed to be part of such registration statement as of the Effective Date pursuant to Rule 430D under the Act, is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement,” and the prospectus (together with static pool information (the “Static Pool Information”) required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 1105 of Regulation AB under the Act) relating to the Certificates, required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act (“Rule 424(b)”) is referred to as the “Prospectus.” “Execution Time” shall mean the date and time that this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto. A free writing prospectus, dated [●] [●], 201[●], relating to the ratings on the Certificates (the “Ratings Free Writing Prospectus”) will be filed with the Commission in accordance with Section 5(a) (to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Act).

Prior to the time the first contract of sale (or, in the event a contract reformation is effective to terminate the existing contract of sale and extinguish any rights thereunder, the time of the first such effective contract reformation) for the Certificates was entered into, as designated on Schedule A hereto (the “Time of Sale”), the Transferors had prepared and filed with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(h) under the Act (“Rule 424(h)”) a preliminary Prospectus, dated [●] [●], 201[●] (subject to completion). As used herein, “Preliminary Prospectus” means, with respect to any date or time referred to herein, the most recent preliminary Prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if applicable) (including the Static Pool Information), which has been prepared and delivered by the Transferors to the Underwriters in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) (i) On the Effective Date and on the date of this Agreement, the Registration Statement did or will, and, when the Prospectus was first filed and on the Closing Date, the Prospectus did or will, comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Rules and Regulations”);

(ii) on the Effective Date, the Registration Statement did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading;

2

(iii) as of its date and at the Time of Sale, the Preliminary Prospectus, together with the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus did not or will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being understood that no representation or warranty is made with respect to the omission of pricing and price-dependent information, which information shall of necessity appear only in the final Prospectus);

(iv) as of its date and as of the Closing Date, the Prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and

(v) other than the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus and the Permitted Additional Information (as defined in Section 4(b)), the Transferors (including their agents and representatives other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) have not made, used, prepared, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Certificates; provided that no Transferor makes any representation or warranty as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined below).

(c) Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, (i) there has not been any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the general affairs, business, management, financial condition, stockholders’ equity, results of operations, regulatory situation or business prospects of such Transferor, and (ii) such Transferor has not entered into any transaction or agreement (whether or not in the ordinary course of business) that, in either case, would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Certificates, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(d) Such Transferor (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, (ii) is qualified to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of each jurisdiction in which its activities require such qualification, and (iii) has full power, authority and legal right to own its properties and conduct its business as such properties are presently owned and such business is presently conducted and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement, each Transaction Document to which it shall be a party and the Certificates.

(e) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by such Transferor.

(f) The Pooling and Servicing Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Transferor, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee and the Servicer, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Transferor enforceable against such Transferor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is pursuant to a proceeding in equity or at law). As of the Closing Date, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus.

3

(g) The Certificates have been duly and validly authorized by all required action of such Transferor, and when duly and validly executed by the Transferors, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters as provided herein, will be validly issued and outstanding and entitled to the benefits of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As of the Closing Date, the Certificates will have been duly and validly executed by the Transferors, and will conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus.

(h) Each Receivables Purchase Agreement to which such Transferor is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Transferor, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, each such Receivables Purchase Agreement constitutes valid and binding obligations of such Transferor, enforceable against such Transferor in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is pursuant to a proceeding in equity or at law).

(f) The Transferors will promptly and from time to time take such action as any Underwriter may reasonably request to qualify the Certificates for offering and sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as such Underwriter may request and to comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings therein in such jurisdictions for as long as may be necessary to complete the distribution of the Certificates; provided that in connection therewith no Transferor shall be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or dealer in securities or to file a general consent to service of process in any particular jurisdiction.

(g) For a period from the date of this Agreement until the retirement of the Certificates, the Transferors will deliver to you the annual statements of compliance and the annual independent certified public accountants’ reports furnished to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as soon as such statements and reports are furnished to the Trustee.

(h) So long as any Certificate is outstanding and upon your request, the Transferors will furnish to the Underwriters (i) as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year all documents required to be distributed to Certificateholders or filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act or any order of the Commission thereunder and (ii) from time to time, any other information concerning the Transferors or the Trust filed with any government or regulatory authority that is otherwise publicly available.

(i) To the extent, if any, that the rating provided with respect to the Certificates by any Rating Agency is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by any Transferor, such Transferor shall use its best efforts to furnish such documents and take any such other actions unless (a) the furnishing of such documents or the taking of any such action is first required by such Rating Agency after the Execution Time and (b) doing so would have a material adverse effect upon such Transferor.

11

(j) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Transferors will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly, issue, sell or offer to sell securities similar to the Certificates.

(k) Each of the Transferors and TRS will comply with each 17g-5 Representation, other than any breach of a 17g-5 Representation that would not have a material adverse effect on the Certificateholders.

Each Bank agrees with the Underwriters that to the extent, if any, that the rating provided with respect to the Certificates by any Rating Agency is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by such Bank, such Bank shall use its best efforts to furnish such documents and take any such other actions unless (a) the furnishing of such documents or the taking of any such action is first required by such Rating Agency after the Execution Time and (b) doing so would have a material adverse effect upon such Bank.

14

(xi) Neither the execution and delivery by each Bank of this Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreements to which such Bank is a party nor the performance by such Bank of the transactions therein contemplated nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof does or will result in any material violation of any statute or regulation, or, to the best knowledge of such counsel, any order or decree of any court or governmental authority binding upon such Bank or its property, or conflict with, or result in a material breach or violation of any term or provision of, or result in a default under any of the terms and provisions of, its charter or by-laws, or materially conflict with, or result in a material breach or violation of any term or provision of, or result in a material default under any of the terms and provisions, of any indenture, loan agreement or other material agreement known to such counsel to which such Bank is a party or by which such Bank is bound;

(xii) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the Certificates by each Transferor nor the performance by such Transferor of the transactions therein contemplated nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof does or will result in any material violation of any statute or regulation, or, to the best knowledge of such counsel, any order or decree of any court or governmental authority binding upon such Transferor or its property, or conflict with, or result in a material breach or violation of any term or provision of, or result in a default under any of the terms and provisions or, its charter or by-laws, or materially conflict with, or result in a material breach or violation of any term or provision of, or result in a material default under any of the terms and provisions, of any indenture, loan agreement or other material agreement known to such counsel to which such Transferor is a party or by which such Transferor is bound;

(xiii) To the knowledge of such counsel after due investigation, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which either Bank is a party or to which any property of either Bank is subject that, individually or in the aggregate, (i) would have a material adverse effect on the ability of either Bank to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement to which such Bank is a party or (ii) assert the invalidity of this Agreement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement to which such Bank is a party;

(a) (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever arising out of (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Permitted Additional Information (or any amendment or supplement thereto), Preliminary Prospectus (it being understood that such indemnification with respect to the Preliminary Prospectus does not include the omission of pricing and price-dependent information, which information shall of necessity appear only in the final Prospectus), Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements

17

therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (C) any written information furnished to an Underwriter by the Transferors or the Banks expressly for use in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, unless, in any of the above cases, such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency, or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission; and

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by such Underwriters or Persons) reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not indemnified by the Transferors and the Banks pursuant to subparagraphs (i) or (ii) above.

The indemnity agreement provided for in this subsection 9(a) will be in addition to any liability that the Transferors and the Banks may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Transferors and the Banks, each of their respective directors, each of the Transferors’ officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who controls any Transferor or Bank within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (A) described in the indemnity contained in subsection 9(a), but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Transferors or the Banks by the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), (B) resulting from such Underwriter’s failure to convey (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Act) the Preliminary Prospectus to each investor with whom it enters into a contract of sale for any Certificates prior to the time of such contract of sale, or (C) arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by such Underwriter, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom, when read together with the Preliminary Prospectus, of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that such Underwriter will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or any such omission or alleged omission in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with (x) any written, inaccurate information furnished to such Underwriter by the Transferors or the Banks expressly for use therein or (y) the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or Prospectus, which information was not corrected by information subsequently provided by the Transferors or the Banks to such Underwriter prior to the time of first use of such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus. The Transferors and the Banks acknowledge that the information set forth under the heading “Underwriting” relating to selling concessions and reallowance in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus constitutes the only information furnished in writing by the Underwriters or on behalf of the Underwriters for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”). The indemnity agreement provided for in this subsection 9(b) will be in addition to any liability which each Underwriter may otherwise have.

18

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 9 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure; and provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from an indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided that any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to such indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel, (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (iv) such indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies such indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of such indemnifying party, such indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives, if the indemnified parties under this Section 9 consist of any Underwriter or any of their respective officers, employees or controlling persons, or by the Transferors or the Banks, if the indemnified parties under this Section 9 consist of a Transferor or a Bank or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or controlling persons). Each indemnified party shall use its best efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (a) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suite or proceeding and (b) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

19

10. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in Section 9 are for any reason held to be unenforceable or insufficient by the indemnified parties, although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Transferors and the Banks, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreements incurred by the Transferors, the Banks and one or more of the Underwriters in such proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the underwriting compensation earned by them bears to the initial public offering price or prices and the Transferors and the Banks shall be responsible for the balance; provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Transferors, the Banks and the Underwriters each agree that it would not be just or equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this Section 10 to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. For purposes of this Section, each Person, if any, who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters and each director of the Transferors, each director of the Banks, such officer of the Transferors who signed the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who controls the Transferors or the Banks within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Transferors and the Banks. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by it in connection with the Certificates underwritten by it exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statements or omission or alleged omission with respect to the Certificates.

11. Survival. Each party hereto agrees that the respective representations, warranties and agreements made by it herein and in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be relied upon, in the case of each Transferor and each Bank, by each Underwriter and, in the case of each Underwriter, by the Transferors and the Banks, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by or on behalf of the Transferors, the Banks or the Underwriters, and that the respective representations, warranties and agreements (including without limitation the indemnity and contribution agreement) made by each party hereto herein or in any such certificate or other instrument shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Certificates.

12. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the sole discretion of the Underwriters by notice to the Transferors given at or prior to the Closing Date in the event that the Transferors or the Banks shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform in all material respects all obligations and satisfy in all material respects all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior thereto. Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except (i) as provided in Sections 7, 9 and 10 hereof and (ii) if this Agreement is terminated by the Representatives in accordance with any of the provisions of Section 8(a), (b), (d), (e), (f), (g), (j), (k), (l), or (m), the Transferors will reimburse the Underwriters for all of their out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters.

13. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail on the Closing Date to purchase the Certificates which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(a) If the aggregate amount of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Certificates, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters; or

(b) If the aggregate amount of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Certificates, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

20

No action taken pursuant to this Section 13 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives or the Transferors shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

14. Capacity. The Banks and the Transferors acknowledge and agree that (i) the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Banks and the Transferors, on the one hand, and each of the Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith with respect to all aspects of the transaction contemplated herein, each Underwriter is acting as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Banks and the Transferors, and the Banks and the Transferors hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary relationship with respect thereto, (iii) none of the Underwriters has assumed an advisory responsibility in favor of the Banks or the Transferors with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Banks or the Transferors on other matters) or any other obligation to the Banks or the Transferors except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, and (iv) the Banks and the Transferors are not relying on any of the Underwriters for any legal, regulatory, tax, insurance or accounting advice in any jurisdiction and the Underwriters shall not have any responsibly or liability to the Banks or the Transferors with respect thereto.

15. Notices. All communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered, sent by overnight courier or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, or transmitted by telecopier with transmission confirmed, if to (a) the Underwriters, addressed to (i) [●], Attention: [●], (ii) [●], Attention: [●], and (iii) [●], Attention: [●], or to such other address as the Representatives may designate in writing to the Transferors, (b) Centurion Bank, addressed to American Express Centurion Bank, 4315 South 2700 West, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, Telecopier: (801) 945-3000, Attention: Chief Executive Officer, (c) FSB, addressed to American Express Bank, FSB, 4315 South 2700 West, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, Attention: President, Telecopier: (801) 945-4050, (d) American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC, 4315 South 2700 West, Room 3020-3, 02-01-03, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, Attention: President, Telecopier: (801) 945-4717 or (e) American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC, 4315 South 2700 West, Room 1100, 02-01-46, Salt Lake City, Utah 84184, Attention: President, Telecopier: (801) 945-4712 (in the case of (e), with a copy to American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., as administrator, American Express Tower, 200 Vesey Street, New York, New York 10285, Attention: Treasurer, Telecopier: (212) 640-0405).

CONVEYANCE OF RECEIVABLES

Section 2.01 Conveyance of Receivables. By execution of this Agreement, each Transferor does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, without recourse except as provided herein, all of its right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables existing at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Initial Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Initial Accounts), and at the close of business on each Addition Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Additional Accounts), and in each case thereafter created from time to time in such Accounts until the termination of the Trust, all Issuer Rate Fees and Recoveries allocable to the Trust as provided herein, all monies due and to become due and all amounts received with respect to all of the foregoing and all proceeds (including Insurance Proceeds and “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof. Each Transferor does hereby further transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, all of its rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims under or with respect to any related Receivables Purchase Agreement (whether arising pursuant to the terms of such Receivables Purchase Agreement or otherwise). Such property, together with all monies and other property on deposit in the Collection Account, the Series Accounts and the Special Funding Account, the rights of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust under this Agreement and any Supplement, the property conveyed to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust under any Participation Interest Supplement, any Series Enhancement and the right to receive Recoveries shall constitute the assets of the Trust (the “Trust Assets”). The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by the Trust, the Trustee, any Investor Certificateholder or any Series Enhancer of any obligation of Centurion Bank, FSB, any other Account Owner, [American Express Credco,] any Transferor, any Additional Transferor, the Servicer or any other Person in connection with the Accounts or the Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any obligation to Obligors, merchants clearance systems or insurers. The foregoing transfer, assignment, set-over and other conveyance to the Trust shall be made to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and each reference in this Agreement to such transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance shall be construed accordingly. Each Account will continue to be owned by the related Account Owner and will not be a Trust Asset.

Each Transferor agrees to record and file, at its own expense, financing statements (and amendments thereto when applicable) with respect to the Trust Assets conveyed by such Transferor meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain the perfection of, the transfer, assignment, set-over or other conveyance of its interest in such Trust Assets to the Trustee, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of each such financing statement or amendment or other evidence of such filing to the Trustee as soon as practicable after the Substitution Date, in the case of Trust Assets relating to the Initial Accounts, and (if any additional filing is so necessary) as soon as practicable after the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Trust Assets relating to Additional Accounts. The Trustee shall be under no obligation whatsoever to file such financing statements

29

or amendments thereto or to make any other filing under the UCC in connection with such transfer, assignment, set-over or other conveyance.

Each Transferor further agrees, at its own expense, (a) on or prior to (i) the Substitution Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (ii) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, and (iii) the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, to indicate in the appropriate computer files that Receivables created (or reassigned, in the case of Removed Accounts) in connection with the Accounts have been conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders (or conveyed to such Transferor or its designee in accordance with Section 2.10, in the case of Removed Accounts) by including (or deleting in the case of Removed Accounts) in the securitization field of such computer files, in the case of the Initial Accounts, the code “F,” “G,” “H,” “I,” “J,” “L,” “M,” “N,” “O,” “P,” “S,” “T” or “V,” or any other related code designations specified at the dates of their designation as “Accounts” under the Original Pooling Agreement and, in the case of Additional Accounts, a similar code designation that shall be specified in the Assignment related thereto, in each case, identifying each such account as an Account and (b) on or prior to (w) the date that is five Business Days after the Substitution Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (x) the date that is five Business Days after the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Aggregate Additions, (y) the date that is 90 days after the applicable Addition Date, in the case of New Accounts, and (z) the date that is five Business Days after the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, to deliver to the Trustee a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete list of all such Accounts specifying for each such Account, as of the Initial Cut-Off Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, the applicable Addition Cut-Off Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, and the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, its account number and, other than in the case of New Accounts and the Initial Accounts, the aggregate amount outstanding in such Account. Each such file or list, as supplemented, from time to time, to reflect Related Accounts, Transferred Accounts, Additional Accounts and Removed Accounts, shall be marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Each Transferor further agrees not to alter the code referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Account during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Account becomes a Removed Account.

The parties to this Agreement intend that the conveyance of Trust Assets pursuant to this Agreement constitute a sale, and not a secured borrowing, for accounting purposes. Nevertheless, this Agreement also shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and the Transferors hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of their right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Receivables and the other Trust Assets, and all money, accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, goods, investment property, deposit accounts, letters of credit and letter-of-credit rights consisting of, arising from or related to the Trust Assets, and all proceeds thereof, to secure their obligations hereunder.

By executing this Agreement and any Receivables Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto and thereto do not intend to cancel, release or in any way impair the conveyance made by RFC II or Centurion Bank in their respective capacities as a “Transferor” under the Original Pooling Agreement or the Amended PSA, as applicable.

30

(a) The Trust created by and maintained under the Original Pooling Agreement and maintained under the Amended PSA shall continue to exist and be maintained under this Agreement.

(b) All series of investor certificates issued under the Original Pooling Agreement and the Amended PSA shall constitute Series issued and outstanding under this Agreement, and any supplement existing in connection with such series shall constitute a Supplement executed hereunder.

(c) All references to the Original Pooling Agreement or the Amended PSA in any other instruments or documents shall be deemed to constitute references to this Agreement. All references in such instruments or documents to either Centurion Bank or RFC II in its capacity as a “Transferor” of receivables and related assets under the Original Pooling Agreement or the Amended PSA, as applicable, shall be deemed to be references to RFC III and RFC IV in such capacities hereunder.

(d) Subject to clause (f) below, RFC III and RFC IV hereby agree to perform (i) all obligations of Centurion Bank, in its capacity as a “Transferor,” under or in connection with the Original Pooling Agreement (as amended and restated by the Amended PSA), any Supplements to the Original Pooling Agreement and any related Enhancement Agreements and (ii) all obligations of RFC II, in its capacity as a “Transferor,” under or in connection with the Original Pooling Agreement and the Amended PSA, any Supplements to the Original Pooling Agreement and the Amended PSA and any related Enhancement Agreements.

(e) To the extent this Agreement requires that certain actions were to be taken as of a date prior to the Substitution Date or the RFC II Removal Date, as applicable, RFC II’s or Centurion Bank’s, as applicable, taking of such action under the Original Pooling Agreement or the Amended PSA, as applicable, shall constitute satisfaction of such requirement.

(f) All representations, warranties and covenants of (i) RFC II or Centurion Bank, as applicable, made in Article II of the Original Pooling Agreement and in any Assignment of Additional Accounts with respect to receivables and related assets transferred to the Trustee prior to the Substitution Date and (ii) RFC II made in Article II of the Amended PSA and in any Assignment of Additional Accounts with respect to receivables and related assets transferred to the Trustee prior to the RFC II Removal Date shall remain in full force and effect with respect to RFC II or Centurion Bank, as applicable.

(g) If, through inadvertance, negligence or mistake, a Transferor indicates in its computer files that Receivables have been transferred, assigned, set over or otherwise conveyed to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, pursuant to this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders, and the Servicer discovers that such Transferor, in fact at the time of such transfer, assignment, set over or conveyance, did not have any right, title or interest in such Receivables, then the Servicer shall cause the computer files of such Transferor to be corrected to reflect that such Receivables have in fact not been transferred and are not Trust Assets. Further, the Servicer shall correct, or cause to be corrected, as appropriate, all computer files and microfiche lists and all accounting entries, if any. The Transferor Amount shall also be adjusted

31

downward by the amount of such Receivables in accordance with Section 3.09(a) and, if following the exclusion of such Receivables from the calculation of the Transferor Amount, the Transferor Amount would be less than the Required Transferor Amount, then the Transferors shall make a deposit into the Special Funding Account in accordance with Section 3.09(a).

Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee.

(a) The Trustee hereby acknowledges its acceptance on behalf of the Trust of all right, title and interest to the Trust Assets conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 and declares that it shall maintain such right, title and interest, upon the trust herein set forth, for the benefit of all Certificateholders.

The Trustee agrees to take such measures as shall be reasonably requested by any Account Owner or any Transferor to protect and maintain the security and confidentiality of such information and, in connection therewith, shall allow each Account Owner and each Transferor or their duly authorized representatives to inspect the Trustee’s security and confidentiality arrangements from time to time during business hours. The Trustee shall provide the applicable Account Owner and the applicable Transferor with notice five Business Days prior to disclosure of any information of the type described in this subsection 2.02(b).

(ii) as of the Initial Cut-Off Date with respect to Initial Accounts and as of the related Addition Cut-Off Date with respect to Additional Accounts, Schedule 1 to this Agreement, as supplemented to such date, is an accurate and complete listing in all material respects of all the Accounts specified herein as of the Initial Cut-Off Date or such Addition Cut-Off Date, as the case may be, and the information contained therein with respect to the identity of such Accounts and the Receivables existing thereunder is true and correct in all material respects as of the Initial Cut-Off Date or such Addition Cut-Off Date, as the case may be;

(iii) each Receivable conveyed to the Trustee by such Transferor has been conveyed to the Trustee free and clear of any Lien (other than as permitted by clause (d) of the term “Eligible Receivable”);

(v) subject, in each case pertaining to proceeds, to Section 9-315 of the UCC, and further subject to any Liens permitted by clause (d) of the term “Eligible Receivable”, each of this Agreement or, in the case of Additional Accounts, the related Assignment either constitutes a valid transfer and assignment to the Trustee of all right, title and interest of such Transferor in the Receivables conveyed to the Trustee by such Transferor and the proceeds thereof

34

and Recoveries identified as relating to the Receivables conveyed to the Trustee by such Transferor which have become Defaulted Receivables, or it constitutes a grant of a first-priority “security interest” (as defined in the UCC) in such property to the Trustee, which, in the case of existing Receivables and the proceeds thereof and such Recoveries, is enforceable upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, or, with respect to then existing Receivables in Additional Accounts, as of the applicable Addition Date, and which will be enforceable with respect to such Receivables hereafter and thereafter created and the proceeds and Recoveries thereof upon such creation.

(ix) no selection procedures believed by such Transferor to be materially adverse to the interests of the Investor Certificateholders have been used in selecting such related Accounts.

(b) Notice of Breach. The representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.03, this Section 2.04 and subsection 2.09(f) shall survive the transfers and assignments of the Trust Assets to the Trustee and the issuance of the Certificates. Upon discovery by any Transferor, the Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.03, this Section 2.04 or subsection 2.09(f), the party discovering such breach shall give notice to the other parties and to each Series Enhancer within three Business Days following such discovery; provided that the failure to give notice within three Business Days does not preclude subsequent notice.

(c) Representations and Warranties of Each Transferor Relating to Security Interests. Each Transferor hereby makes the following representations and warranties with respect to the Receivables it conveys to the Trustee. Such representations and warranties shall survive until the termination of this Agreement and each shall speak as of the Substitution Date and, with respect to Receivables in Additional Accounts, as of the related Addition Date. None of the following shall be waived by any of the parties to this Agreement unless each Rating Agency shall have notified the Transferors, the Servicer and the Trustee in writing that such waiver will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Series or Class to which it is a Rating Agency.

35

(a) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in favor of the Trustee in the Receivables described in Section 2.01 of this Agreement or in Section 3(a) of any Assignment (the “Collateral”), which security interest is prior to all other Liens except as otherwise permitted hereunder, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from such Transferor.

(b) The Collateral constitutes “accounts” or “general intangibles” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

(c) At the time of its transfer of any Receivable to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or an Assignment, such Transferor owned and had good and marketable title to such Receivable free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person except as otherwise permitted hereunder.

(d) Such Transferor has caused or will have caused, within ten (10) days of the initial execution of this Agreement and each Assignment, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the related Collateral granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or such Assignment.

(e) Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or an Assignment, such Transferor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed the Collateral. Such Transferor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against such Transferor that include a description of the Collateral other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or an Assignment or that has been terminated. Such Transferor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against such Transferor.

Section 2.05 Reassignment of Ineligible Receivables.

(a) Reassignment of Receivables. In the event (i) any representation or warranty contained in subsection 2.04(a)(ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) or (viii) is not true and correct in any material respect as of the date specified therein with respect to any Receivable or the related Account and such breach has a material adverse effect on the Investor Certificateholders (which determination shall be made without regard to whether funds are then available pursuant to any Series Enhancement) unless cured within 60 days (or such longer period, not in excess of 120 days, as may be agreed to by the Trustee and the Servicer) after the earlier to occur of the discovery thereof by the Transferor that conveyed such Receivables to the Trust or receipt by such Transferor of written notice thereof given by the Trustee or the Servicer, or (ii) it is so provided in subsection 2.07(a) or 2.09(d)(iii) with respect to any Receivables conveyed to the Trust by such Transferor, then such Transferor shall accept reassignment of the Certificateholders’ Interest in all Receivables in the related Account (“Ineligible Receivables”) on the terms and conditions set forth in paragraph (b) below.

36

(b) Price of Reassignment. The Servicer shall deduct the portion of such Ineligible Receivables reassigned to each Transferor which are Principal Receivables from the aggregate amount of the Principal Receivables used to calculate the Transferor Amount. In the event that, following the exclusion of such Principal Receivables from the calculation of the Transferor Amount, the Transferor Amount would be less than the Required Transferor Amount, not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the first Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises, the applicable Transferor shall make a deposit into the Special Funding Account in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount by which the Transferor Amount would be below the Required Transferor Amount (up to the amount of such Principal Receivables).

Upon reassignment of any Ineligible Receivable, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall automatically and without further action sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the applicable Transferor or its designee, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Trustee and the Trust in and to such Ineligible Receivable, all monies due or to become due and all proceeds thereof and such reassigned Ineligible Receivable shall be treated by the Trust as collected in full as of the date on which it was transferred. The obligation of each Transferor to accept reassignment of any Ineligible Receivables conveyed to the Trustee by such Transferor, and to make the deposits, if any, required to be made to the Special Funding Account as provided in this Section, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting the event giving rise to such obligation available to Certificateholders (or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders) or any Series Enhancer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection 2.05(b), a reassignment of an Ineligible Receivable in excess of the amount that would cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount shall not occur if the applicable Transferor fails to make any deposit required by this subsection 2.05(b) with respect to such Ineligible Receivable. The Trustee shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the applicable Transferor to effect the conveyance of such Ineligible Receivables pursuant to this subsection 2.05(b), but only upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate from such Transferor certifying that all conditions set forth in this Section 2.05 have been satisfied.

Section 2.06 Reassignment of Certificateholders’ Interest in Trust Portfolio. In the event any representation or warranty of a Transferor set forth in subsection 2.03(a) or (c) or subsection 2.04(a)(i) or (v) is not true and correct in any material respect and such breach has a material adverse effect on the Investor Certificateholders (which determination shall be made without regard to whether funds are then available pursuant to any Series Enhancement), then either the Trustee or the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Investor Certificates, by notice then given to such Transferor and the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the Investor Certificateholders), may direct such Transferor to accept a reassignment of the Certificateholders’ Interest in the Receivables and any Participation Interests conveyed to the Trust by such Transferor if such breach and any material adverse effect caused by such breach is not cured within 60 days of such notice (or within such longer period, not in excess of 120 days, as may be specified in such notice), and upon those conditions such Transferor shall be obligated to accept such reassignment on the terms set forth below; provided, however, that such Receivables will not be reassigned to such Transferor if, on any day prior to the end of such 60-day or longer period (i) the relevant representation and warranty shall then be true and correct in

37

all material respects and (ii) such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee a certificate of an authorized officer describing the nature of such breach and the manner in which the relevant representation and warranty has become true and correct.

The applicable Transferor shall deposit in the Collection Account in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the first Transfer Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises, in payment for such reassignment, an amount equal to the sum of the amounts specified therefor with respect to each outstanding Series in the related Supplement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such amounts shall be distributed to the Investor Certificateholders on such Distribution Date in accordance with the terms of each Supplement. If the Trustee or the Investor Certificateholders give notice directing the applicable Transferor to accept a reassignment of the Certificateholders’ Interest in the Receivables as provided above, the obligation of such Transferor to accept such reassignment pursuant to this Section and to make the deposit required to be made to the Collection Account as provided in this paragraph shall constitute the sole remedy respecting an event of the type specified in the first sentence of this Section available to the Certificateholders (or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders) or any Series Enhancer.

Section 2.07 Covenants of each Transferor. Each Transferor hereby severally covenants that:

(a) Receivables Not To Be Evidenced by Promissory Notes. Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of an Account, such Transferor will take no action to cause any Receivable conveyed by it to the Trustee to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC) and if any such Receivable is so evidenced as a result of any action taken by such Transferor it shall be deemed to be an Ineligible Receivable in accordance with subsection 2.05(a) and shall be reassigned to such Transferor in accordance with subsection 2.05(b).

(b) Security Interests. Except for the conveyances hereunder, such Transferor will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist (except as permitted by clause (d) of the definition of the term “Eligible Receivable”) any Lien on, any Receivable or Participation Interest conveyed by it to the Trust, whether now existing or hereafter created, or any interest therein, and such Transferor shall defend the right, title and interest of the Trustee in, to and under the Receivables and any Participation Interest, whether now existing or hereafter created, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under such Transferor.

(c) Transferors’ Interest. Except for (i) the conveyances hereunder, in connection with any transaction permitted by Section 7.02 or Section 7.05 and as provided in subsection 2.09(g) and Section 6.03 or (ii) conveyances with respect to which the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and a Tax Opinion shall have been delivered to the Trustee, such Transferor agrees not to transfer, sell, assign, exchange or otherwise convey or pledge, hypothecate or otherwise grant a security interest in, the Transferors’ Interest represented by the Original Transferor Certificate or any Supplemental Certificate and any such attempted transfer, assignment, exchange, conveyance, pledge, hypothecation, grant or sale shall be void. Nothing contained in this subsection 2.07(c) shall be interpreted to prohibit or in any way limit any

38

Transferor’s ability to grant to another Person a participation interest in the Transferors’ Interest upon the delivery to the Trustee of a Tax Opinion.

(d) Delivery of Collections or Recoveries. In the event that such Transferor receives Collections or Recoveries, such Transferor agrees to pay the Servicer all such Collections and Recoveries as soon as practicable after receipt thereof.

(e) Notice of Liens. Such Transferor shall notify the Trustee and each Series Enhancer promptly after becoming aware of (except as permitted by clause (d) of the definition of the term “Eligible Receivable”) any Lien on any Receivable or Participation Interest conveyed by it to the Trust other than the conveyances hereunder and under any Receivables Purchase Agreement to which such Transferor is a party.

(f) Issuer Rate Fees. On or prior to each Determination Date, such Transferor shall notify the Servicer of the amount of Issuer Rate Fees to be included as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables with respect to the preceding Monthly Period, which shall be equal to the amount of Issuer Rate Fees paid to such Transferor pursuant to the relevant Receivables Purchase Agreement with respect to such Monthly Period.

(g) Separate Corporate Existence. Such Transferor shall:

(i) Maintain in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited liability company under the laws of the state of its formation or as a corporation under the laws of the state of its incorporation and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement and the applicable Receivables Purchase Agreement and each other instrument or agreement necessary or appropriate to proper administration hereof and to permit and effectuate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(ii) Except as provided herein, maintain its own deposit, securities and other account or accounts, separate from those of any Affiliate of such Transferor, with financial institutions. The funds of such Transferor will not be diverted to any other Person or for other than the company use of such Transferor, and, except as may be expressly permitted by this Agreement or the applicable Receivables Purchase Agreement, the funds of such Transferor shall not be commingled with those of any other Person.

(iii) Ensure that, to the extent that it shares the same officers or other employees as any of its members or other Affiliates, the salaries of and the expenses related to providing benefits to such officers and other employees shall be fairly allocated among such entities, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of the salary and benefit costs associated with all such common officers and employees.

(iv) Ensure that, to the extent that it jointly contracts with any of its members or other Affiliates to do business with vendors or service providers or to share overhead expenses, the costs incurred in so doing shall be allocated fairly

39

among such entities, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such costs. To the extent that such Transferor contracts or does business with vendors or service providers where the goods and services provided are partially for the benefit of any other Person, the costs incurred in so doing shall be fairly allocated to or among such entities for whose benefit the goods and services are provided, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such costs.

(v) Ensure that all material transactions between such Transferor and any of its Affiliates shall be only on an arm’s-length basis and shall not be on terms more favorable to either party than the terms that would be found in a similar transaction involving unrelated third parties.

(vi) Maintain a principal executive and administrative office through which its business is conducted and a telephone number separate from those of its members and other Affiliates. To the extent that such Transferor and any of its members or other Affiliates have offices in contiguous space, there shall be fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs (including rent) among them, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such expenses.

(vii) Conduct its affairs strictly in accordance with its certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement or its certificate of incorporation and bylaws and observe all necessary, appropriate and customary company formalities, including, but not limited to, holding all regular and special members’ and directors’ meetings appropriate to authorize all action, keeping separate and accurate minutes of such meetings, passing all resolutions or consents necessary to authorize actions taken or to be taken, and maintaining accurate and separate books, records and accounts, including, but not limited to, intercompany transaction accounts. Regular members’ and directors’ meetings shall be held at least annually.

(viii) Ensure that its board of directors shall at all times include at least one Independent Director (for purposes hereof, “Independent Director” shall mean any member of the board of directors of such Transferor that is not and has not at any time been (x) an officer, agent, advisor, consultant, attorney, accountant, employee, member or shareholder of any Affiliate of such Transferor which is not a special purpose entity, (y) a director of any Affiliate of such Transferor other than an independent director of any Affiliate which is a special purpose entity or (z) a member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing).

(ix) Ensure that decisions with respect to its business and daily operations shall be independently made by such Transferor (although the officer making any particular decision may also be an officer or director of an Affiliate of such Transferor) and shall not be dictated by an Affiliate of such Transferor.

(x) Act solely in its own company name and through its own authorized officers and agents, and no Affiliate of such Transferor shall be appointed to act as agent of such Transferor. Such Transferor shall at all times

40

use its own stationery and business forms and describe itself as a separate legal entity.

(xi) Other than as provided in the relevant Revolving Credit Agreement, ensure that no Affiliate of such Transferor shall advance funds or loan money to such Transferor, and no Affiliate of such Transferor will otherwise guaranty debts of such Transferor.

(xii) Other than organizational expenses and as expressly provided herein, pay all expenses, indebtedness and other obligations incurred by it using its own funds.

(xiii) Not enter into any guaranty, or otherwise become liable, with respect to or hold its assets or creditworthiness out as being available for the payment of any obligation of any Affiliate of such Transferor nor shall such Transferor make any loans to any Person.

(xiv) Ensure that any financial reports required of such Transferor shall comply with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be issued separately from, but may be consolidated with, any reports prepared for any of its Affiliates so long as such consolidated reports contain footnotes describing the effect of the transactions between such Transferor and such Affiliate and also state that the assets of such Transferor are not available to pay creditors of the Affiliate.

(xv) Ensure that at all times it is adequately capitalized to engage in the transactions contemplated in its certificate of formation and its limited liability company agreement or in its certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

Section 2.08 Additional Covenants of Each Transferor Regarding the Terms of the Accounts. Each Transferor, in its capacity as purchaser of Receivables from any Account Owner (each, a “Receivables Originator”) pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement (if any) to which such Transferor is a party, hereby covenants that such Transferor will at all times enforce the covenants and agreements of such Receivables Originators in such Receivables Purchase Agreements, including covenants to the effect set forth below only to the extent to which they are enforceable against such Receivables Originators pursuant to such Receivables Purchase Agreements:

(a) Periodic Rate Finance Charges. (i) Except (x) as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law or (y) as is deemed by Centurion Bank, FSB or other Account Owner, as the case may be, to be necessary in order for it to maintain its credit or charge business, as applicable, or a program operated by such credit or charge business, as applicable, on a competitive basis based on a good faith assessment by it of the nature of the competition with respect to such credit or charge business or such program, such Receivables Originator shall not at any time take any action which would have the effect of reducing the Portfolio Yield to a level that could be reasonably expected to cause any Series to experience any Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event based on the insufficiency of the Portfolio Yield or any similar test and (ii)

41

except as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law, such Receivables Originator shall not take any action which would have the effect of reducing the Portfolio Yield to be less than the then-current highest Average Rate for any Group.

(b) Account Agreements and Guidelines. Subject to compliance with all Requirements of Law and paragraph (a) above, Centurion Bank, FSB or other Account Owner, as the case may be, may change the terms and provisions of the applicable Account Agreements or the applicable Credit Guidelines in any respect (including the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the Periodic Rate Finance Charges to be assessed thereon). Notwithstanding the above, unless required by Requirements of Law or as permitted by paragraph (a) above, Centurion Bank, FSB or other Account Owner, as the case may be, will not take any action with respect to the applicable Account Agreements or the applicable Credit Guidelines, which, at the time of such action, Centurion Bank, FSB or other Account Owner, as the case may be, reasonably believes will have a material adverse effect on the rights of the Trust or the Investor Certificateholders.

Each Transferor further covenants that it will not enter into any amendment to any Receivables Purchase Agreement to which it is a party, or enter into a new Receivables Purchase Agreement unless the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

Section 2.09 Addition of Accounts.

(a) Required Additional Accounts. (i) If, as of the end of any Monthly Period, the total amount of Principal Receivables and the then outstanding principal amount of any Participation Interests theretofore conveyed to the Trust is less than the Required Minimum Principal Balance on such date, the Transferors shall on or prior to the close of business on the tenth Business Day of the next Monthly Period (the “Required Designation Date”), cause to be designated additional Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts as of the Required Designation Date or any earlier date in a sufficient amount (or such lesser amount as shall represent all Eligible Accounts then available to the Transferors under the Receivables Purchase Agreements) such that, after giving effect to such addition, the aggregate principal balance of Principal Receivables, plus the then outstanding principal amount of any Participation Interests conveyed to the Trustee as of the close of business on the Addition Date, is at least equal to the Required Minimum Principal Balance on such date.

(ii) Optional Participation Interests. In lieu of, or in addition to, causing the designation of Additional Accounts pursuant to clause (i) above, subject to the conditions specified in paragraph (c) below, the Transferors may (but shall not be required to) convey to the Trust participations (including 100% participations) representing undivided interests in a pool of assets primarily consisting of one or more of the following (“Participation Interests”): credit card or other credit account receivables, charge card or other charge account receivables, consumer loan receivables (secured and unsecured), and/or any interests in any of the foregoing, including securities representing or backed by such receivables, and other self-liquidating financial assets including any “Eligible Assets” as such term is defined in Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act (or any successor to such rule) and collections, together with all

42

earnings, revenues, dividends, distributions, income, issues and profits thereon. The addition of Participation Interests in the Trust pursuant to this paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) below shall be effected by a Participation Interest Supplement, dated the applicable Addition Date and entered into pursuant to subsection 13.01(a).

(iii) Any Additional Accounts or Participation Interests designated to be included as Trust Assets pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above may only be so included if (x) Standard & Poor’s shall have notified the Transferors, the Servicer and the Trustee in writing that such addition will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then existing rating of any outstanding Series or Class with respect to which Standard & Poor’s is a Rating Agency and (y) the applicable conditions specified in paragraph (c) below have been satisfied.

(b) Permitted Aggregate Additions. Each Transferor may from time to time, at its sole discretion, subject to the conditions specified in paragraph (c) below, voluntarily cause the designation of additional Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts and the related Receivables and any Participation Interests to be included as Trust Assets, in either case, as of the applicable Addition Date.

(c) Conditions to Aggregate Additions. On the Addition Date with respect to any Aggregate Additions, the Trustee shall acquire the Receivables existing in Aggregate Addition Accounts (and such Aggregate Addition Accounts shall be deemed to be Accounts for purposes of this Agreement) as of the close of business on the applicable Addition Cut-Off Date or shall acquire such Participation Interests, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) on or before the eighth Business Day immediately preceding the Addition Date, the applicable Transferor shall have given the Trustee, the Servicer and each Rating Agency notice (unless such notice requirement is otherwise waived) that the Aggregate Addition Accounts or Participation Interests will be included and specifying the applicable Addition Date, Addition Cut-Off Date and Addition Selection Date;

For purposes of this paragraph, Eligible Accounts shall be deemed to include only credit or charge accounts of the same nature as those included as Initial Accounts or which have previously been included in any Aggregate Addition if the Assignment related to such Aggregate Addition expressly provides that such type of credit or charge account is permitted to be designated as a New Account.

(ii) Unless and until each Rating Agency otherwise consents in writing, the Transferors shall not be permitted to designate New Accounts and, upon obtaining such consent, the number and balance of New Accounts designated with respect to any period designated by the Rating Agency shall not exceed the amounts designated by the Rating Agency.

(iii) With respect to each semi-annual period in which New Accounts are added as Accounts, the failure of the applicable Transferor to deliver an Opinion of Counsel substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 (or, if the owner of the applicable Accounts has a long-term rating below “A” by Moody’s or “AA-” by Standard & Poor’s, such Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered quarterly, and if the long-term rating of the owner of the applicable Accounts is not rated by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s or, if rated, is not rated at least “A-” by Standard & Poor’s and in one of the generic categories of each other Rating Agency which signifies investment grade, such Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered monthly) with respect to the New Accounts included as Accounts shall result in all

44

Receivables arising in the New Accounts to which such failure relates to be deemed to be Ineligible Receivables in accordance with subsection 2.05(a) and all such Receivables shall be reassigned to such Transferor in accordance with subsection 2.05(b). The opinion delivery requirement set forth in the immediately preceding sentence may be modified provided that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

(e) Conditions to Addition of New Accounts. On the Addition Date with respect to any New Accounts, at the direction of the Servicer, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall acquire the Receivables existing in such New Accounts (and such New Accounts shall be deemed to be Accounts for purposes of this Agreement) as of the close of business on the applicable Addition Cut-Off Date, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(g) Additional Transferors. A Transferor may designate Affiliates of such Transferor to be included as Transferors (“Additional Transferors”) under this Agreement in an amendment hereto pursuant to subsection 13.01(a) and, in connection with such designation, such Transferor shall (i) if the Original Transferor Certificate is certificated, surrender the Original Transferor Certificate to the Trustee in exchange for a newly issued Original Transferor Certificate modified to reflect such Additional Transferor’s interest in the Transferors’ Interest or (ii) if the Original Transferor Certificate is uncertificated, direct the Trustee to register in the books and records of the Trust such Additional Transferor’s interest in the Transferors’ Interest; provided, however, that prior to any such designation of an Additional Transferor, the conditions

On any day of any Monthly Period, each Transferor shall have the right to require the reassignment to it or its designee of all the Trust’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables then existing and thereafter created, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received thereafter with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof in or with respect to the Accounts specified herein (the “Removed Accounts”) or Participation Interests conveyed to the Trust by such Transferor (the “Removed Participation Interests”) (unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Participation Interest Supplement or Series Supplement), and designated for removal by the Transferor, upon satisfaction of the conditions in clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) below:

(i) on or before the eighth Business Day immediately preceding the Removal Date, such Transferor shall have given the Trustee, the Servicer, the Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer notice (unless such notice requirement is otherwise waived) of such removal and specifying the date for removal of the Removed Accounts and removed Participation Interests (the “Removal Date”);

(ii) on or prior to the date that is five Business Days after the Removal Date, such Transferor shall amend Schedule 1 by delivering to the Trustee a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete list of the Removed Accounts specifying for each such Account, as of the date notice of the Removal Date is given, its account number and the aggregate amount of Receivables outstanding in such Account;

(iii) such Transferor shall have represented and warranted as of the Removal Date that the list of Removed Accounts delivered pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, as of the Removal Date, is true and complete in all material respects;

(iv) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to the removal of the Removed Accounts and removed Participation Interests;

(v) such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor, dated the Removal Date, to the effect that such Transferor reasonably believes that (a) such removal will not have an Adverse

46

Effect, (b) such removal will not result in the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, and (c) no selection procedures believed by such Transferor to be materially adverse to, or materially beneficial to, the interests of the Investor Certificateholders have been used in selecting the Removed Accounts from among any pool of Accounts of a similar type.

In addition to the terms and conditions contained in clauses (i)-(v) above, the Transferors’ right to require the reassignment to them or their designees of all the Trustee’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables in Removed Accounts and Removed Participation Interests, shall be subject to the following restrictions:

(a) Except for Removed Accounts described in clause (b) below, there shall be no more than one Removal Date in any Monthly Period and the Accounts to be designated as Removed Accounts shall be selected at random by the applicable Transferor; and

(b) A Transferor may designate Removed Accounts as provided in and subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Section 2.10 without being subject to the restrictions set forth in clause (a) above if the Removed Accounts are Accounts (i) originated or acquired under a specific affinity agreement, private label agreement, merchant agreement, co-branding agreement or other program which is co-owned, operated or promoted, provided that such agreement has terminated in accordance with the terms therein or (ii) being removed due to other circumstances caused by requirements of agreements in which the right to such Removed Accounts or control thereof is determined by a party or parties to such agreements other than the Transferors, any Affiliate of the Transferors or any agent of the Transferors.

Upon satisfaction of the above conditions, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to such Transferor a written reassignment in substantially the form of Exhibit C (the “Reassignment”) and shall, without further action, be deemed to sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to such Transferor or its designee, effective as of the Removal Date, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Trust in and to the Receivables arising in the Removed Accounts and Removed Participation Interests, all monies due and to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof and any Insurance Proceeds relating thereto. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 2.10 and shall have no duty to make inquiries with regard to the matters set forth therein and shall incur no liability in so relying.

In addition to the foregoing, on the date when an Account becomes a Defaulted Account, the Trustee shall automatically and without further action or consideration transfer, set over and otherwise convey to the applicable Transferor with respect to such Account, without recourse, representation or warranty, all right, title and interest of the Trustee and the Trust in and to the Receivables in such Defaulted Account, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all proceeds thereof and any Insurance Proceeds relating thereto; provided, that Recoveries of such Defaulted Account shall be applied as provided herein.

Section 2.11 Account Allocations. In the event that any Transferor is unable for any reason to transfer Receivables to the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including by reason of the application of the provisions of Section 9.01 or any order

47

of any Governmental Authority (a “Transfer Restriction Event”), then, in any such event, (a) such Transferor agrees (except as prohibited by any such order) to allocate and pay to the Trust, after the date of such inability, all Collections, including Collections of Receivables transferred to the Trust prior to the occurrence of such event, and all amounts which would have constituted Collections but for such Transferor’s inability to transfer Receivables (up to an aggregate amount equal to the amount of Receivables transferred to the Trust by such Transferor in the Trust on such date), (b) such Transferor and the Servicer agree that such amounts will be applied as Collections in accordance with Article IV and the terms of each Supplement and (c) for so long as the allocation and application of all Collections and all amounts that would have constituted Collections are made in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) above, Principal Receivables and all amounts which would have constituted Principal Receivables but for such Transferor’s inability to transfer Receivables to the Trust which are written off as uncollectible in accordance with this Agreement shall continue to be allocated in accordance with Article IV and the terms of each Supplement. For the purpose of the immediately preceding sentence, such Transferor and the Servicer shall treat the first received Collections with respect to the Accounts as allocable to the Trust until the Trust shall have been allocated and paid Collections in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in the Trust as of the date of the occurrence of such event. If such Transferor and the Servicer are unable pursuant to any Requirements of Law to allocate Collections as described above, such Transferor and the Servicer agree that, after the occurrence of such event, payments on each Account with respect to the principal balance of such Account shall be allocated first to the oldest principal balance of such Account and shall have such payments applied as Collections in accordance with Article IV and the terms of each Supplement. The parties hereto agree that Finance Charge Receivables, whenever created, accrued in respect of Principal Receivables which have been conveyed to the Trust shall continue to be a part of the Trust notwithstanding any cessation of the transfer of additional Principal Receivables to the Trust and Collections with respect thereto shall continue to be allocated and paid in accordance with Article IV and the terms of each Supplement.

Section 2.12 Discount Option.

(a) The Transferors shall have the option to designate at any time and from time to time a percentage or percentages, which may be a fixed percentage or a variable percentage (the “Discount Percentage”), of all or any specified portion of Principal Receivables created after the Discount Option Date to be treated as Finance Charge Receivables (“Discount Option Receivables”). The Transferors shall also have the option of increasing, reducing or withdrawing the Discount Percentage, at any time and from time to time, on and after such Discount Option Date. The Transferors shall provide to the Servicer, the Trustee and any Rating Agency 30 days’ prior written notice of the Discount Option Date and any such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal, and such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal shall become effective on the Discount Option Date specified therefor upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) each Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee and any Series Enhancer entitled thereto (if any) an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor certifying that, based upon facts known to such Transferor at such time, such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal will not, at the time of its occurrence, cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, or an event that,

48

with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, to occur with respect to any Series;

(ii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal; and

(iii) only in connection with a reduction or withdrawal of the Discount Percentage, the Transferors shall have caused an Opinion of Counsel to the effect described in clause (a) of the definition of “Tax Opinion” in Section 1.01 to have been delivered to the Trustee.

(b) After any Discount Option Date, Discount Option Receivable Collections (calculated using the Discount Percentage specified on such Discount Option Date) shall be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables.

Section 2.13 Premium Option.

(a) The Transferors shall have the option to designate at any time and from time to time a percentage or percentages, which may be a fixed percentage or a variable percentage (the “Premium Percentage”), of all or any specified portion of Finance Charge Receivables created on and after the Premium Option Date to be treated as Principal Receivables (“Premium Option Receivables”). The Transferors shall also have the option of increasing, reducing or withdrawing the Premium Percentage, at any time and from time to time, on and after such Premium Option Date. The Transferors shall provide to the Servicer, the Trustee and any Rating Agency 30 days’ prior written notice of the Premium Option Date and any such designation or increase, reduction or withdrawal, and such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal shall become effective on the Premium Option Date specified therefor upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) each Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee and any Series Enhancer entitled thereto (if any) an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor certifying that, based upon facts known to such Transferor at such time, such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal will not, at the time of its occurrence, cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, or an event that, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event, to occur with respect to any Series;

(ii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such designation, increase, reduction or withdrawal; and

(iii) only in connection with the designation or any increase of the Premium Percentage, the Transferors shall have caused an Opinion of Counsel to the effect described in clause (a) of the definition of “Tax Opinion” in Section 1.01 to have been delivered to the Trustee.

(b) After any Premium Option Date, Premium Option Receivable Collections (calculated using the Premium Percentage specified on such Premium Option Date) shall be treated as Collections of Principal Receivables.

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF RECEIVABLES

Section 3.01 Acceptance of Appointment and Other Matters Relating to the Servicer.

(a) TRS has agreed to act, and has acted, as the Servicer under the Original Pooling Agreement and the Amended PSA, and TRS hereby agrees to act as the Servicer under this Agreement. The Certificateholders by their acceptance of the Certificates shall be deemed to consent to TRS acting as Servicer.

(b) As agent for each Transferor and the Trust, the Servicer shall service and administer the Receivables and any Participation Interests, shall collect and deposit into the Collection Account payments due under the Receivables and any Participation Interests and shall charge-off as uncollectible Receivables, all in accordance with its customary and usual servicing procedures for servicing credit or charge receivables comparable to the Receivables and in accordance with the applicable Credit Guidelines. As agent for each Transferor and the Trust, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through any party properly designated by it hereunder, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to Section 10.01, the Servicer or its designee is hereby authorized and empowered, unless such power is revoked by the Trustee on account of the occurrence of a Servicer Default pursuant to Section 10.01, (i) to instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account, the Special Funding Account and any Series Account, as set forth in this Agreement or any Supplement, (ii) to take any action required or permitted under any Series Enhancement, as set forth in this Agreement or any Supplement, (iii) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and, after the delinquency of any Receivable and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with applicable Requirements of Law, to commence collection or enforcement proceedings with respect to such Receivables and (iv) at the expense of the Transferors, to make any filings, reports, notices, applications and registrations with, and to seek any consents or authorizations from, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and any state securities authority on behalf of the Trust as may be necessary or advisable to comply with any Federal or state securities or reporting requirements or other laws or regulations. In any action or proceeding that is described in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, (A) the Servicer, whether acting in its own name or on behalf of another and whether acting alone or through another, represents each of the Transferors’, the Trust’s and the Trustee’s interests, (B) each of the Transferors, the Trust and the Trustee will be bound by that action or by any judgment or other ruling in that action or proceeding, and (C) complete and final relief can be accorded among the parties to that action or proceeding without joining any Transferor, the Trust or the Trustee. Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence applies to interests of or claims against the Trustee in its individual capacity or will relieve the Servicer of its obligation to service and administer the Receivables in accordance with the Servicer’s customary and usual servicing procedures for servicing credit card receivables

51

comparable to the Receivables and in accordance with the Credit Guidelines. The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

(c) The Servicer shall not, and no Successor Servicer shall, be obligated to use separate servicing procedures, offices, employees or accounts for servicing the Receivables from the procedures, offices, employees and accounts used by the Servicer or such Successor Servicer, as the case may be, in connection with servicing other comparable receivables.

(d) The Servicer shall comply with and perform its servicing obligations with respect to the Accounts and Receivables in accordance with the Account Agreements relating to the Accounts and the applicable Credit Guidelines and all applicable rules and regulations affecting the Accounts and the Receivables, except insofar as any failure to so comply or perform would not materially and adversely affect the Trust or the Investor Certificateholders.

(e) The Servicer shall pay out of its own funds, without reimbursement, all expenses incurred in connection with the servicing activities hereunder including all expenses related to enforcement of the Receivables, fees and disbursements of the Trustee (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its outside counsel) and independent accountants for the Servicer.

Section 3.02 Servicing Compensation. As full compensation for its servicing activities hereunder and as reimbursement for any expense incurred by it in connection therewith, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee specified in any Supplement.

Section 3.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Servicer. TRS, as initial Servicer, hereby makes, and any Successor Servicer by its appointment hereunder shall make, with respect to itself, on each Closing Date (and on the date of any such appointment), the following representations, warranties and covenants on which the Trustee shall be deemed to have relied in accepting the Receivables in trust and in authenticating the Certificates:

(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Servicer is a corporation or other legal entity validly existing under the applicable law of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation and has, in all material respects, full power and authority to own its properties and conduct its servicing business as presently owned or conducted, and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Supplement.

(b) Due Qualification. The Servicer is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other foreign entity (or is exempt from such requirements) and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction in which the servicing of the Receivables and any Participation Interests as required by this Agreement requires such qualification except where the failure to so qualify or obtain licenses or approvals would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations as Servicer under this Agreement.

(c) Due Authorization. The execution, delivery, and performance by the Servicer of this Agreement and each Supplement, and the other agreements and instruments

52

executed or to be executed by the Servicer as contemplated hereby, have been duly authorized by the Servicer by all necessary action on the part of the Servicer.

(d) Binding Obligation. This Agreement and each Supplement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect or by general principles of equity.

(e) No Conflict. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Supplement by the Servicer, and the performance by the Servicer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Supplement and the fulfillment by the Servicer of the terms hereof and thereof applicable to the Servicer, will not conflict with, violate or result in any breach of any of the material terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a material default under, any indenture, contract, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Servicer is a party or by which it or its properties are bound.

(f) No Violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Supplement by the Servicer, the performance by the Servicer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Supplement and the fulfillment by the Servicer of the terms hereof and thereof applicable to the Servicer will not conflict with or violate any Requirements of Law applicable to the Servicer.

(g) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the best knowledge of the Servicer, threatened against the Servicer before any Governmental Authority seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Supplement or seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement or any Supplement.

(h) Compliance with Requirements of Law. The Servicer shall duly satisfy all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with each Receivable and the related Account, if any, will maintain in effect all qualifications required under Requirements of Law in order to service properly each Receivable and the related Account, if any, and will comply in all material respects with all other Requirements of Law in connection with servicing each Receivable and the related Account the failure to comply with which would have an Adverse Effect.

(i) No Rescission or Cancellation. The Servicer shall not authorize any rescission or cancellation of any Receivable except in accordance with the applicable Credit Guidelines or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority.

(j) Protection of Rights. The Servicer shall take no action which, nor omit to take any action the omission of which, would impair the rights of the Trustee in any Receivable, if any, nor shall it reschedule, revise or defer payments due on any Receivable except in

53

accordance with the applicable Credit Guidelines, nor shall it sell any assets in the Trust except as provided in this Agreement or a related Supplement.

(k) Receivables Not To Be Evidenced by Instruments. Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of an Account, the Servicer will take no action to cause any Receivable to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC) and if any Receivable is so evidenced as a result of the Servicer’s action, it shall be assigned to the Servicer as provided in this Section.

(l) All Consents. All authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of or registrations or declarations with any Governmental Authority required to be obtained, effected or given by the Servicer in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Supplement by the Servicer and the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Supplement by the Servicer, have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect.

In the event (x) any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Servicer contained in subsection 3.03(h), (i) or (j) with respect to any Receivable or the related Account is breached, and such breach has a material adverse effect on the Trustee’s interest in such Receivable (which determination shall be made without regard to whether funds are then available to any Investor Certificateholders pursuant to any Series Enhancement) and is not cured within 60 days (or such longer period, not in excess of 150 days, as may be agreed to by the Trustee and the Transferors) of the earlier to occur of the discovery of such event by the Servicer, or receipt by the Servicer of notice of such event given by the Trustee or a Transferor, or (y) as provided in subsection 3.03(k) with respect to any Receivable, all Receivables in the Account or Accounts to which such event relates shall be assigned and transferred to the Servicer on the terms and conditions set forth below.

The Servicer shall effect such assignment by making a deposit into the Collection Account in immediately available funds on the Transfer Date following the Monthly Period in which such assignment obligation arises in an amount equal to the amount of such Receivables.

Upon each such assignment to the Servicer, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall automatically and without further action sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Servicer, without recourse, representation or warranty, all right, title and interest of the Trustee and the Trust in and to such Receivables, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof. The Trustee shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall be reasonably requested by the Servicer to effect the conveyance of any such Receivables pursuant to this Section but only upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer that states that all conditions set forth in this section have been satisfied. The obligation of the Servicer to accept assignment of such Receivables, and to make the deposits, if any, required to be made to the Collection Account as provided in the preceding paragraph, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting the event giving rise to such obligation available to Certificateholders (or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders) or any Series Enhancer, except as provided in Section 8.04.

54

Section 3.04 Reports and Records for the Trustee.

(a) Daily Records. For as long as deposits of Collections are required to be made daily by the Servicer pursuant to subsection 4.03(a), on each Business Day, the Servicer shall make or cause to be made available at the office of the Servicer for inspection by the Trustee or any Transferor upon request a record setting forth (i) the Collections in respect of Principal Receivables and in respect of Finance Charge Receivables processed by the Servicer on the second preceding Business Day in respect of each Account and (ii) the amount of Receivables as of the close of business on the second preceding Business Day in each Account. The Servicer shall, at all times, maintain its computer files with respect to the Accounts in such a manner so that the Accounts may be specifically identified and shall make available to the Trustee and the Transferors at the office of the Servicer on any Business Day any computer programs necessary to make such identification. The Trustee and the Transferors shall enter into such confidentiality agreements as the Servicer shall deem necessary to protect its interests.

(b) Monthly Servicer’s Certificate. Not later than the second Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall, with respect to each outstanding Series, deliver to the Trustee, the Transferors and each Rating Agency a certificate of a Servicing Officer in substantially the form set forth in the related Supplement.

Section 3.05 Annual Certificate of Servicer. The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Transferors and each Rating Agency on or before the 90th day following the end of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, the statement of compliance required under Item 1123 of Regulation AB with respect to such fiscal year, which statement will be in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer (with appropriate insertions) to the effect that (a) a review of the activities of the Servicer during such fiscal year and of its performance under this Agreement was made under the supervision of the officer signing such certificate and (b) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such fiscal year or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof; provided, however, that on or before March 31, 2016, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered the Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer (with appropriate insertions) as was required to be delivered pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 3.05 of the Amended PSA.

Section 3.06 Annual Servicing Report of Independent Public Accountants; Copies of Reports Available.

(a) On or before the 90th day following the end of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, the Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or a Transferor) to furnish to the Trustee, the Servicer, the Transferors and each Rating Agency each attestation report on assessments of compliance with the Servicing Criteria with respect to the Servicer or any affiliate thereof during the related fiscal year delivered by such accountants pursuant to Rule 13(a)-18 or Rule 15(d)-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB; provided, however, that on or before March 31, 2016, the Servicer shall cause to be

55

furnished the reports as were required to be delivered pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 3.06 of the Amended PSA.

(b) A copy of each certificate and report provided pursuant to subsection 3.04(b), or Section 3.05 or 3.06 may be obtained by any Investor Certificateholder or Certificate Owner by a request in writing to the Trustee addressed to the Corporate Trust Office.

Section 3.07 Tax Treatment. Except as otherwise specified in a Supplement with respect to a particular Series, the Transferors have entered into this Agreement, and the Certificates will be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, (i) the Investor Certificates of each Series which are characterized as indebtedness at the time of their issuance will qualify as indebtedness secured by the Receivables and (ii) the Trust shall not be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. Each of the Transferors, by entering into this Agreement, each of the Holders of the Transferor Certificates, by acquisition of its interest in the Transferors’ Interest, and each Certificateholder, by the acceptance of any such Certificate (and each Certificate Owner, by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Certificate), agree to treat such Investor Certificates for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness. Each Holder of such Investor Certificate agrees that it will cause any Certificate Owner acquiring an interest in a Certificate through it to comply with this Agreement as to treatment as indebtedness under applicable tax law, as described in this Section 3.07. Subject to Section 11.11, the Trustee shall treat the Trust as a security arrangement for federal income tax purposes and shall not file any federal income tax returns or obtain any federal employer identification number for the Trust. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in furtherance of the foregoing intended tax treatment.

Section 3.08 Notices to American Express Entities. In the event that TRS is no longer acting as Servicer, any Successor Servicer also shall deliver or make available to Centurion Bank, FSB and TRS each certificate and report required to be provided thereafter pursuant to subsection 3.04(b) and Sections 3.05 and 3.06, as well as all information reasonably requested by Centurion Bank, FSB or TRS.

Section 3.09 Adjustments.

(a) If the Servicer adjusts downward the amount of any Receivable because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized charge or billing error to an account Obligor, because such Receivable was created in respect of merchandise which was refused or returned by an account Obligor, or because the Servicer or applicable Account Owner charges off as uncollectible Small Balances, or if the Servicer otherwise adjusts downward the amount of any Receivable without receiving Collections therefor or charging off such amount as uncollectible, then, in any such case (other than cases resulting from Servicer error), the amount of Principal Receivables used to calculate the Transferor Amount, the Transferors’ Interest, and (unless otherwise specified) any other amount required herein or in any Supplement to be calculated by reference to the amount of Principal Receivables, will be reduced by the amount of the adjustment. Similarly, the amount of Principal Receivables used to calculate the Transferor Amount and (unless otherwise specified) any other amount required herein or in any Supplement to be calculated by reference to the amount of Principal Receivables will be reduced by the amount of the Trust’s percentage

56

of any Receivable which was discovered as having been created through a fraudulent or counterfeit charge or with respect to which the covenant contained in Section 2.07(b) was breached. Any adjustment required pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences shall be made on or prior to the end of the Monthly Period in which such adjustment obligation arises. In the event that, following the exclusion of such Principal Receivables from the calculation of the Transferor Amount, the Transferor Amount would be less than the Required Transferor Amount, not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such adjustment obligation arises, the Transferors shall make a deposit into the Special Funding Account in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the amount by which the Transferor Amount would be less than the Required Transferor Amount, due to adjustments with respect to Receivables conveyed by such Transferors (up to the amount of such Principal Receivables).

(b) If (i) the Servicer makes a deposit into the Collection Account in respect of a Collection of a Receivable and such Collection was received by the Servicer in the form of a check which is not honored for any reason or (ii) the Servicer makes a mistake with respect to the amount of any Collection and deposits an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such Collection, the Servicer shall appropriately adjust the amount subsequently deposited into the Collection Account to reflect such dishonored check or mistake. Any Receivable in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid. Notwithstanding the first two sentences of this paragraph, adjustments made pursuant to this paragraph shall not require any change in any report previously delivered pursuant to subsection 3.04(a) or (b).

Section 3.10 Recoveries. If at any time the Servicer cannot identify the Recoveries that relate to specific Defaulted Receivables, then the Servicer shall reasonably estimate, on or prior to each Determination Date, the amount of Recoveries to be attributed to such Defaulted Receivables.

Section 3.11 Reports to the Commission. The Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trust and at the expense of the Transferors, cause to be filed with the Commission any periodic reports required to be filed under the provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Transferors shall, at their expense, cooperate in any reasonable request of the Servicer in connection with such filings.

ARTICLE IV

RIGHTS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS AND

ALLOCATION AND APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS

Section 4.01 Rights of Certificateholders. The Investor Certificates shall represent fractional undivided interests in the Trust, which, with respect to each Series, shall consist of the right to receive, to the extent necessary to make the required payments with respect to the Investor Certificates of such Series at the times and in the amounts specified in the related Supplement, the portion of Collections allocable to Investor Certificateholders of such Series pursuant to this Agreement and such Supplement, funds on deposit in the Collection Account and the Special Funding Account allocable to Certificateholders of such Series pursuant to this Agreement and such Supplement, funds on deposit in any related Series Account and funds available pursuant to any related Series Enhancement (collectively, with respect to all Series, the “Certificateholders’ Interest”), it being understood that, except as specifically set forth in the Supplement with respect thereto, the Investor Certificates of any Series or Class shall not represent any interest in any Series Account or Series Enhancement for the benefit of any other Series or Class. The Transferor Certificates or, as the case may be, the uncertificated interests in the Transferors’ Interest shall represent the ownership interest in the remainder of the Trust Assets not allocated pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement to the Certificateholders’ Interest, including the right to receive Collections with respect to the Receivables and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in any Supplement to be paid to the Transferors on behalf of all holders of the Transferor Certificates (the “Transferors’ Interest”); provided, however, that if the Transferors elect to have their interests in the Transferors’ Interest be uncertificated as provided in Section 6.01 hereof, then such uncertificated interests shall represent the Transferors’ Interest; provided further, however, that the Transferor Certificates or, as the case may be, the uncertificated interests in the Transferors’ Interest shall not represent any interest in the Collection Account, any Series Account or any Series Enhancement, except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any Supplement.

Section 4.02 Establishment of Collection Account and Special Funding Account. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the “Collection Account”). The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all monies, instruments, securities, documents, certificates of deposit and other property on deposit from time to time in the Collection Account and in all proceeds, earnings, income, revenue, dividends and distributions thereof for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

The Collection Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Servicer agrees that it shall have no right of setoff or banker’s lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any funds held in the Collection Account for any amount owed to it by the Trustee, the Trust, any Certificateholder or any Series Enhancer. If, at any time, the Collection 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 Collection Account meeting the

58

conditions specified above, transfer any monies, documents, instruments, investment property, financial assets, certificates of deposit and other property to such new Collection Account and from the date such new Collection Account is established, it shall be the “Collection Account.” Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in subsection 3.01(b), the Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account and to instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer’s or the Trustee’s duties hereunder. The Servicer shall reduce deposits into the Collection Account payable by a Transferor on any Deposit Date to the extent that such Transferor is entitled to receive funds from the Collection Account on such Deposit Date, but only to the extent such reduction would not reduce the Transferor Amount to an amount less than the Required Transferor Amount.

Funds on deposit in the Collection Account (other than investment earnings and amounts deposited pursuant to Sections 2.06, 10.01 or 12.02) shall at the written direction of the Servicer (or its agent appointed as provided below) be invested by the Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer (or its agent appointed as provided below); provided, however, that if no such written direction is provided, funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall remain uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.07. Subject to the first sentence of this paragraph, investments of funds representing Collections collected during any Monthly Period shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available no later than the close of business on the next Transfer Date following such Monthly Period in amounts sufficient to the extent of such funds to make the required distributions on such Distribution Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment before its maturity, if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment; provided further, however, that the Servicer (or its agent appointed as provided below) shall deliver prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 11.01, the Trustee will not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Collection Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. Unless directed by the Servicer (or its agent appointed as provided below), funds deposited in the Collection Account on a Transfer Date with respect to the immediately succeeding Distribution Date are not required to be invested overnight. On each Distribution Date, all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall be paid to the Transferors, except as otherwise specified in any Supplement. The Trustee shall bear no responsibility or liability for any losses resulting from investment or reinvestment of any funds in accordance with this Section 4.02. The Servicer may appoint as its agent under a separate agreement a registered investment advisor and authorize such agent to give instructions on behalf of the Servicer to the Trustee for funds to be invested and reinvested in one or more Eligible Investments. The Servicer shall provide the Trustee with a written direction certifying any such appointment. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, instructions received from such agent on behalf of the Servicer.

59

The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the “Special Funding Account”). The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all monies, instruments, investment property, financial assets, documents, certificates of deposit and other property on deposit from time to time in the Special Funding Account and in all proceeds, dividends distributions, earnings, income and revenue thereof for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Special Funding Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Servicer agrees that it shall have no right of setoff or banker’s lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any funds held in the Special Funding Account for any amount owed to it by the Trustee, the Trust, any Certificateholder or any Series Enhancer. If, at any time, the Special Funding 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 Special Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above, transfer any monies, documents, instruments, securities, certificates of deposit and other property to such new Special Funding Account and from the date such new Special Funding Account is established, it shall be the “Special Funding Account.”

Funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account shall at the written direction of the Servicer be invested by the Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer; provided, however, that if no such written direction is provided, funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account shall remain uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.07. Subject to the first sentence of this paragraph, funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account on any Distribution Date will be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available on the next Distribution Date. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment before its maturity, if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment and the Servicer has delivered written notice to the Trustee of such default; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 11.01, the Trustee will not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Special Funding Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. Unless directed by the Servicer, funds deposited in the Special Funding Account on a Transfer Date with respect to the immediately succeeding Distribution Date are not required to be invested overnight. On each Distribution Date, all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account shall be treated as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables with respect to the last day of the related Monthly Period except as otherwise specified in the related Supplement. On each Business Day on which funds are on deposit in the Special Funding Account and on which no Series is in an Accumulation Period or Amortization Period, the Servicer shall determine the amount (if any) by which the Transferor Amount exceeds the Required Transferor Amount on such date and the Transferors may instruct the

60

Trustee to withdraw any such excess from the Special Funding Account and pay such amount to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates; provided, however, that, (i) if an Accumulation Period or Amortization Period has commenced and is continuing with respect to one or more outstanding Series, any funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections and shall be allocated and distributed in accordance with Section 4.04 and the terms of each Supplement to the extent that doing so would not cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount and (ii) if, at any time, the Transferors determine that, by decreasing the amount on deposit in the Special Funding Account, any Series then outstanding which is issued pursuant to a Supplement which permits partial amortization as provided in this Section 4.02 may be prevented from experiencing a Pay-Out Event based upon insufficiency of yield, the Servicer shall on the next succeeding Distribution Date instruct the Trustee in writing to apply funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account as “Partial Amortization SFA Amounts” to such Series to reduce the Invested Amount thereof (or, if more than one such Series, to each such Series on a pro rata basis according to the Invested Amounts of such Series) in an amount such that the Special Funding Account is reduced to an amount that, based on the then current investment yield, (i) would not cause a yield insufficiency Pay-Out Event to occur for any Series that is then outstanding and (ii) would not cause the Transferor Amount to be less than the Required Transferor Amount. In addition, the Servicer shall instruct the Trustee in writing to apply funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account to each such Series on such pro rata basis as Partial Amortization SFA Amounts on any Distribution Date to the extent (subject to the limitations specified in the preceding sentence) the Transferors so determine in written instructions provided to the Servicer on or prior to the Determination Date preceding such Distribution Date.

Section 4.03 Collections and Allocations.

(a) The Servicer will apply or will instruct the Trustee to apply all funds on deposit in the Collection Account as described in this Article IV and in each Supplement. Except as otherwise provided below, the Servicer shall deposit Collections into the Collection Account as promptly as possible after the Date of Processing of such Collections, but in no event later than the second Business Day following the Date of Processing. Subject to the express terms of any Supplement, but notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, for so long as TRS or an Affiliate of TRS remains the Servicer and (i) maintains a short-term credit rating (which may be an implied rating) of not less than A-1 by Standard and Poor’s and P-1 by Moody’s (or such other rating below A-1 or P-1, as the case may be, which is satisfactory to such Rating Agency), (ii) obtains a guarantee with respect to the Servicer’s deposit and payment obligations hereunder pursuant to a guaranty in form and substance acceptable to each Rating Agency provided the guarantor maintains a short-term credit rating of P-1 by Moody’s and of A-1 by Standard & Poor’s (or such other rating below P-1 or A-1, as the case may be, which is satisfactory to such Rating Agency), or (iii) the Rating Agency Condition will be satisfied despite the Servicer’s inability to satisfy the rating requirement specified in clause (i) and for five Business Days following any reduction of any such rating or failure to satisfy the conditions specified in clause (ii) or (iii), the Servicer need not make the daily deposits of Collections into the Collection Account as provided in the preceding sentence, but may make a single deposit in the Collection Account in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Transfer Date following the Monthly Period with respect to which such deposit relates. Subject to the first proviso in Section 4.04, but notwithstanding anything

61

else in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any Monthly Period, whether the Servicer is required to make deposits of Collections pursuant to the first or the second preceding sentence, (i) the Servicer will only be required to deposit Collections into the Collection Account up to the aggregate amount of Collections required to be deposited into any Series Account or, without duplication, distributed on or prior to the related Distribution Date to Investor Certificateholders or to any Series Enhancer pursuant to the terms of any Supplement or Enhancement Agreement and (ii) if at any time prior to such Distribution Date the amount of Collections deposited or to be deposited in the Collection Account exceeds the amount required to be deposited pursuant to clause (i) above, the Servicer, on a daily or monthly basis, as directed by the Transferors, (x) will distribute to the Transferors any Collections not required to be so deposited as such Collections are collected or (y) will withdraw such excess from the Collection Account and distribute such excess to the Transferors. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, the Servicer may retain its Servicing Fee with respect to a Series and shall not be required to deposit it in the Collection Account.

(b) Collections of Finance Charge Receivables, Principal Receivables and Defaulted Receivables will be allocated to each Series on the basis of the Series Allocable Finance Charge Collections of such Series, Series Allocable Principal Collections of such Series and Series Allocable Defaulted Amount of such Series and amounts so allocated to any Series will not, except as specified in the related Supplement, be available to the Investor Certificateholders of any other Series. Allocations of the foregoing amounts between the Certificateholders’ Interest and the Transferors’ Interest, among the Series and among the Classes in any Series, shall be set forth in the related Supplement or Supplements.

Section 4.04 Shared Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date, (a) the Servicer shall allocate Shared Principal Collections (as described below) to each Principal Sharing Series pro rata, in proportion to the Principal Shortfalls, if any, with respect to such Series, and (b) the Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and pay to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates (i) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the aggregate amount for all outstanding Series of Collections of Principal Receivables which the related Supplements specify are to be treated as “Shared Principal Collections” for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount for all outstanding Series which the related Supplements specify are “Principal Shortfalls” for such Series and for such Distribution Date and, without duplication, (ii) the aggregate amount for all outstanding Series of that portion of Series Allocable Principal Collections which the related Supplements specify are to be allocated and paid to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date; provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), if the Transferor Amount as of such Distribution Date (determined after giving effect to the Trust’s percentage of any Principal Receivables or Participation Interests transferred to the Trust on such date) is less than the Required Transferor Amount, the Servicer will not distribute to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates any such amounts that otherwise would be distributed to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates, but shall deposit such funds in the Special Funding Account. The Transferors may, at their option, instruct the Trustee to deposit Shared Principal Collections which are otherwise payable to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates pursuant to the provisions set forth above into the Special Funding Account.

62

Section 4.05 Allocation of Trust Assets to Series or Groups. To the extent so provided in the Supplement for any Series or in an amendment to this Agreement executed pursuant to subsection 13.01(a), Receivables conveyed to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.01 and Receivables or Participation Interests conveyed to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.09 or any Participation Interest Supplement, and all Collections received with respect thereto may be allocated or applied in whole or in part to one or more Series or Groups as may be provided in such Supplement or amendment; provided, however, that any such allocation or application shall be effective only upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) on or before the fifth Business Day immediately preceding such allocation, the Servicer shall have given the Transferors, the Trustee and each Rating Agency written notice of such allocation;

(ii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such allocation; and

(iii) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer, dated the date of such allocation, to the effect that the Servicer reasonably believes that such allocation will not have an Adverse Effect.

Any such Supplement or amendment may provide that (i) such allocation to one or more particular Series or Groups may terminate upon the occurrence of certain events specified therein and (ii) that upon the occurrence of any such event, such assets and any Collections with respect thereto, shall be reallocated to other Series or Groups or to all Series, all as shall be provided in such Supplement or amendment.

Section 4.06 Issuer Rate Fees. Each Transferor shall be permitted to transfer to the Trust for inclusion as Trust Assets all or a portion of any interchange, merchant discount, issuer rate or other fees or charges derived from transactions relating to the Accounts. All of such interchange, merchant discount, issuer rate or other fees or charges shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as, Finance Charge Receivables under this Agreement and each Supplement hereto.

Section 4.07 Manner of Holding Trust Assets. Each Trust Asset that constitutes a security entitlement shall be held by the Trustee through a securities intermediary, which securities intermediary shall agree with the Trustee (and The Bank of New York Mellon, as the initial securities intermediary, hereby agrees with the Trustee) that (i) such investment property at all times shall be credited to a securities account of the Trustee, (ii) all property credited to such securities account shall be treated as a financial asset, (iii) such securities intermediary shall treat the Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each financial asset credited to such securities account, (iv) such securities intermediary shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the further consent of any other Person, (v) such securities intermediary shall not agree with any Person other than the Trustee to comply with entitlement orders originated by any Person other than the Trustee, (vi) such securities account and all property credited thereto shall not be subject to any lien, security interest, right of set-off, or encumbrance in favor of such securities intermediary or any Person claiming through such securities intermediary (other than the Trustee), (vii) such agreement between such securities

intermediary and the Trustee shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York and (viii) the State of New York shall be the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction for purposes of the UCC. The Trustee shall maintain possession in the State of New York of each Trust Asset that constitutes money, an instrument, tangible chattel paper, or a certificated security, separate and apart from all other property held by the Trustee. The issuer of any Trust Asset that constitutes an uncertificated security shall register the Trustee as the registered owner of such uncertificated security. Any Trust Asset that constitutes a deposit account shall be established and maintained in the name of the Trustee by a bank, the jurisdiction of which for purposes of the UCC is the State of New York. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not hold any Trust Asset through an agent except as expressly permitted by this Section 4.07. Each term used in this Section 4.07 and defined in the New York UCC shall have the meaning set forth in the New York UCC.

Section 4.08 Asset Representations Review.

(a) Pursuant to the Asset Representations Review Agreement, the Transferors have appointed [            ], a [            ] organized under the laws of [            ], as the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform the obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer as set forth therein and herein. The Transferors hereby confirm the engagement of the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to all Series outstanding as of [            ], 2015. The Transferors hereby represent and warrant that the Asset Representations Reviewer (i) is not an Affiliate of any Transferor, any Account Owner, the Servicer and (ii) has not been hired by any Account Owner to perform pre-closing due diligence work relating to the Receivables. The Trustee hereby represents and warrants that the Asset Representations Reviewer is not an Affiliate of the Trustee.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a 60-Day Delinquency Event with respect to any Monthly Period, the Transferors shall include disclosure of such 60-Day Delinquency Event in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission relating to such Monthly Period. Within [90] days following the date of such disclosure, the Holders of Investor Certificates shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to initiate a vote on whether to direct an Asset Representations Review. The Trustee may require any Investor Certificateholder providing such direction to provide verification that it is in fact a Holder of a beneficial interest in the Investor Certificates in the form of (x) a written certification from such Investor Certificateholder that it is a Holder of a beneficial interest in an Investor Certificate, and (y) one other form of documentation such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from the broker or dealer, or other similar document; provided, however, that if the requesting Investor Certificateholder is a Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, no such verification of ownership shall be required.

(c) If, prior to the end of such [90]-day period, Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 5% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (excluding Investor Certificates held by any Account Owner, any Transferor, the Servicer or any of their Affiliates) shall have directed the Trustee in writing to initiate a vote on whether to direct an Asset Representations Review, (i) the Trustee shall promptly provide notice of such 5% threshold being reached to all Investor Certificateholders, the Transferors and the Servicer, (ii) within [10] Business Days of such 5% threshold being reached, the Trustee shall

64

commence a solicitation of votes of all Investor Certificateholders on whether to direct an Asset Representations Review and (iii) the Transferors shall include disclosure of such solicitation of votes in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission relating to the Monthly Period during which such 5% threshold was reached. With respect to any Investor Certificates that are Book-Entry Certificates, such solicitation of votes shall be conducted through the Clearing Agency.

(d) The vote on whether to direct an Asset Representations Review will be completed within [90] days of the delivery by the Trustee of notice to Investor Certificateholders that the solicitation of votes has commenced. If, at the end of such [90]-day voting period, Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates participating in such vote (excluding Investor Certificates held by any Account Owner, any Transferor, the Servicer or any of their Affiliates) elect to direct an Asset Representations Review, the Trustee shall promptly provide notice of such occurrence to the Transferors, the Servicer and the Account Owners, and the Servicer shall provide notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer that an Asset Representations Review has been demanded (such notice, a “Review Notice”). The Transferors shall disclose the results of such vote in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission relating to the Monthly Period during which the voting period ended.

(e) Upon the completion of an Asset Representations Review and the delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of its report on the findings and conclusions of the Asset Representations Review in accordance with the provisions of the Asset Representations Review Agreement, the Transferors shall include a summary of such report in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission relating to the Monthly Period during which such report is delivered.

(f) The Transferors shall review, and shall be entitled to adjust, the Delinquency Threshold upon the occurrence of either of the following events:

(i) the filing of a registration statement with the Commission relating to any Certificates to be offered and sold from time to time thereunder; and

(ii) a change in law or regulation (including any new or revised interpretation of an existing law or regulation) that, in the judgment of the Transferors, could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the delinquency rate for payments by Obligors on the Accounts or the manner by which delinquencies are defined or determined;

provided, however, that, once a 60-Day Delinquency Event has occurred and is continuing, a review of the Delinquency Threshold that would otherwise be undertaken as described above shall be delayed until the date on which the Transferors first report in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission that the 60-Day Delinquency Percentage for the related Monthly Period no longer exceeds the Delinquency Threshold. With respect to a review undertaken upon the occurrence of an event described in clause (i) above, the Transferors may increase or decrease the Delinquency Threshold by any amount the Transferors reasonably determine to be appropriate based on the composition of the Receivables at the time of the

65

review. With respect to a review undertaken upon the occurrence of an event described in clause (ii) above, the Transferors may increase or decrease the Delinquency Threshold by any amount the Transferors reasonably determine to be appropriate as a result of the related change in law or regulation. The Transferors shall disclose any adjustment to the Delinquency Threshold in the Distribution Report on Form 10-D filed with the Commission relating to the Monthly Period in which the adjustment occurs.

Section 4.09 Resolution of Repurchase Disputes.

(a) If [the Trustee or any Investor Certificateholder] (the “Requesting Party”) requests that (i) a Transferor accept reassignment of any Receivable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement due to an alleged breach of a representation or warranty herein or (ii) an Account Owner accept reassignment of any Receivable pursuant to the terms of the applicable Receivables Purchase Agreement due to an alleged breach of a representation or warranty therein (such Transferor or Account Owner, as applicable, the “Representing Party”), and the repurchase request has not been fulfilled or otherwise resolved within 180 days of the receipt of notice of such repurchase request by the Representing Party, then the Requesting Party shall have the right to refer the matter, at its discretion, to either mediation or third-party arbitration, and the Representing Party shall agree to the selected resolution method.

(b) In order to exercise its right under subsection 4.09(a) above, the Requesting Party must provide the Representing Party written notice of its intention to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration within 30 days of the conclusion of the 180-day period described above. If the Requesting Party is an Investor Certificateholder, the Representing Party shall have the right to request from such Requesting Party verification that such Requesting Party is in fact a Holder of a beneficial interest in the Investor Certificates in the form of (x) a written certification from such Investor Certificateholder that it is a Holder of a beneficial interest in an Investor Certificate, and (y) one other form of documentation such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from the broker or dealer, or other similar document; provided, however, that if the requesting Investor Certificateholder is a Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date, no such verification of ownership shall be required.

(c) If the Requesting Party selects mediation as the resolution method, the mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation association mutually agreed upon by the Representing Party and the Requesting Party and shall be conducted in accordance with such association’s mediation procedures in effect at such time. The fees and expenses of the mediation shall be allocated as mutually agreed upon by the Representing Party and the Requesting Party as part of the mediation. The mediator(s) shall be impartial and knowledgeable about and experienced with the laws of the State of New York that are relevant to the repurchase dispute and shall be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”).

(d) If the Requesting Party selects third-party arbitration as the resolution method, the third-party arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration association mutually agreed upon by the Representing Party and the Requesting Party and shall be conducted in accordance with such association’s arbitration procedures in effect at such time. The arbitrator(s) shall be impartial and knowledgeable about and experienced with the laws of the

66

State of New York that are relevant to the repurchase dispute and shall be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by AAA. The arbitrator(s) shall determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of the third-party arbitration. By selecting arbitration, the Requesting Party shall give up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury. No person may bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration.

(e) The following provisions shall apply to both mediations and third-party arbitrations:

(i) Any mediation or arbitration shall be held in New York, New York or such other location mutually agreed to by the Requesting Party and the Representing Party.

(ii) Notwithstanding this dispute resolution provision, the parties shall have the right to seek provisional or ancillary relief from a competent court of law, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or attachment order, provided such relief would otherwise be available by law.

(iii) The details and/or existence of any unfulfilled repurchase request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 4.09, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve an unfulfilled repurchase request, and any discovery taken in connection with any arbitration, shall be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding; provided, however, that any discovery taken in any arbitration shall be admissible in that particular arbitration. Such information shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or discussed with any third party (excluding a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with the related resolution procedure), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a dispute resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and shall provide the other party with the opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(f) A Requesting Party may not initiate a mediation or arbitration as described above with respect to a receivable that is, or has been, the subject of an ongoing or previous mediation or arbitration (whether by that Requesting Party or another Requesting Party) but shall have the right to join an existing mediation or arbitration with respect to that receivable if the mediation or arbitration has not yet concluded.

ARTICLE VI

THE CERTIFICATES

Section 6.01 The Certificates. The Investor Certificates of any Series or Class shall be issued in fully registered form (including any uncertificated Series or Class which is registered in the Certificate Register, the “Registered Certificates”) unless the applicable Supplement provides, in accordance with then applicable laws, that such Certificates be issued in bearer form (“Bearer Certificates”) with attached interest coupons and a special coupon (collectively the “Coupons”). Such Registered Certificates or Bearer Certificates, as the case may be, shall be substantially in the form of the exhibits with respect thereto attached to the applicable Supplement. The Transferors may elect at any time, by written notice to the Trustee, to have their interests in the Transferors’ Interest be (i) uncertificated interests or (ii) evidenced by Transferor Certificates in registered form, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (which shall, upon issue, be executed and delivered by the Transferors to the Trustee for authentication and redelivery as provided in Section 6.02). If the Transferors elect to have their interests in the Transferors’ Interest be uncertificated, they shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Transferor Certificates previously issued and the Trustee shall register in the books and records of the Trust such uncertificated interests of the Transferors in the Transferors’ Interest. If specified in any Supplement, the Investor Certificates of any Series or Class shall be issued upon initial issuance as one or more certificates evidencing the aggregate original principal amount of such Series or Class as described in Section 6.10. The Original Transferor Certificate, if certificated, shall be a single certificate and shall initially represent the entire Transferors’ Interest. As of the date of this Agreement, the Transferors’ interests in the Transferors’ Interest are evidenced in uncertificated form, registered by the Trustee in the books and records of the Trust. Each Certificate shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Transferors by their respective Presidents, Vice Presidents or Chief Executive Officers or by attorneys-in-fact duly authorized to execute such Certificate on behalf of any such officers. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was, at the time when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of a Transferor shall not be rendered invalid, notwithstanding that such individual ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or does not hold such office at the date of such Certificates. No Certificates shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Bearer Certificates shall be dated the Series Issuance Date. All Registered Certificates and Transferor’s Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

Section 6.02 Authentication of Certificates. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Investor Certificates of each Series and Class that are issued upon original issuance to or upon the order of the Transferors against payment to the Transferors of the purchase price therefor. The Trustee authenticated and delivered the Original Transferor Certificate to the Transferors simultaneously with the delivery of the Series 1996-1 Investor Certificates. If specified in the related Supplement for any Series or Class, the Trustee shall authenticate and

70

deliver outside the United States the Global Certificate that is issued upon original issuance thereof.

Section 6.03 New Issuances.

(a) The Transferors may from time to time direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series of Investor Certificates. The Investor Certificates of all outstanding Series shall be equally and ratably entitled as provided herein to the benefits of this Agreement without preference, priority or distinction, all in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Supplement except, with respect to any Series or Class, as provided in the related Supplement.

(b) On or before the Series Issuance Date relating to any new Series, the parties hereto will execute and deliver a Supplement which will specify the Principal Terms of such new Series. The Trustee shall execute the Supplement and the Transferors shall execute the Investor Certificates of such Series and deliver such Investor Certificates to the Trustee for authentication. In connection with the issuance of a new Series of Investor Certificates, the designation of an Additional Transferor pursuant to Section 2.09(g) or at any other time, each Transferor may surrender its Transferor Certificate to the Trustee, if applicable, in exchange for a newly issued Transferor Certificate and a new certificate (a “Supplemental Certificate”), the terms of which shall be defined in a supplement (a “Transferor Certificate Supplement”) to this Agreement (which Transferor Certificate Supplement shall be subject to Section 13.01 to the extent that it amends any of the terms of this Agreement) to be delivered to or upon the order of such Transferor; provided, however, that if the Holders of the Transferor Certificates have elected to have their interests in the Transferors’ Interest be uncertificated, then such uncertificated interests shall represent the Transferors’ Interest before and immediately after the designation of such Additional Transferor pursuant to Section 2.09(g). The issuance of any such Investor Certificates or Supplemental Certificate shall be subject to satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) on or before the fifth day immediately preceding the Series Issuance Date, the surrender and exchange of the Transferor Certificates or the exchange of the uncertificated interests in the Transferors’ Interest, as the case may be, such Transferor shall have given the Trustee, the Servicer and each Rating Agency notice (unless such notice requirement is otherwise waived) of such issuance and the Series Issuance Date, of such surrender and exchange of the Transferor Certificates or of such exchange of the uncertificated interests in the Transferors’ Interest, as the case may be;

(ii) such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee the related Supplement or Transferor Certificate Supplement, as applicable, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, executed by each party hereto (other than the Trustee and the Holder of the Supplemental Certificate, if any);

(iii) such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee any related Enhancement Agreement executed by each of the parties thereto, other than the Trustee;

71

(iv) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such issuance, such surrender and exchange of the Transferor Certificates or such exchange of the uncertificated interests in the Transferors’ Interest, as the case may be;

(v) such issuance, such surrender and exchange or such exchange, as the case may be, will not result in any Adverse Effect and such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor, dated the Series Issuance Date, the date of such surrender and exchange or the date of such exchange, as the case may be, to the effect that such Transferor reasonably believes that such issuance, such surrender and exchange or such exchange, as the case may be, will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such certification, have an Adverse Effect;

(vi) the Transferors shall have delivered to the Trustee (with a copy to each Rating Agency) a Tax Opinion, dated the Series Issuance Date or the date of such surrender and exchange or such exchange, as the case may be, with respect to such issuance, such surrender and exchange or such exchange, respectively, and, in connection with any such exchange, after giving effect to such exchange, the Transferors or other Holders of the Original Transferor Certificate shall have a remaining interest in the Trust of not less than, in the aggregate, 2% of the total amount of Principal Receivables and funds on deposit in the Special Funding Account and the Principal Funding Account; and

(vii) the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables plus the principal amount of any Participation Interest theretofore conveyed to the Trust as of the Series Issuance Date, the date of such surrender and exchange or the date of such exchange, as the case may be, shall be greater than the Required Minimum Principal Balance as of the Series Issuance Date or the date of such surrender and exchange, as the case may be, and after giving effect to such issuance, such surrender and exchange or such exchange, respectively.

In addition, each Transferor agrees to provide notice of new issuances of Series of Investor Certificates as may be required by and in accordance with Item 1121(a)(14) of Regulation AB.

Any Supplemental Certificate (or uncertificated interest) held by any Person, and any Investor Certificate held by any Transferor at any time after the date of its initial issuance, may be transferred or exchanged only upon the delivery to the Trustee of a Tax Opinion dated as of the date of such transfer or exchange, as the case may be, with respect to such transfer or exchange.

(c) (i) The Transferors may from time to time direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue additional Investor Certificates equal in rank to an outstanding Series or Class of Investor Certificates in all respects, except that interest shall begin accruing on the additional Investor Certificates on the related issuance date. Such additional Investor Certificates may be consolidated and

72

form a single Series or Class with the previously issued Investor Certificates and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption, or otherwise as the previously issued Series or Class of Investor Certificates. In addition, the Transferors may retain the Investor Certificates of a Series or Class upon initial issuance or upon a reopening of a Series or Class of Investor Certificates and may sell them on a subsequent date. The Transferors and the Trustee shall not be required to provide prior notice to, or to obtain the consent of, any Certificateholder of any outstanding Series or Class of Investor Certificates to issue any additional Investor Certificates of an outstanding Series or Class of Investor Certificates.

(ii) There are no restrictions on the timing or amount of any issuance of additional Investor Certificates of an outstanding Series or Class of Investor Certificates so long as the conditions set forth in subsection 6.03(b) above for a new issuance are met or waived. As of the date of any issuance of additional Investor Certificates of an outstanding Series or Class of Investor Certificates, the Series Invested Amount and the Invested Amount related to that Series or Class shall be increased to reflect the principal amount of the additional Investor Certificates. In addition, if the additional Investor Certificates are part of a Series or Class of additional Investor Certificates that has the benefit of any Series Enhancement, the Transferors shall direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to enter into a similar Series Enhancement for the benefit of the additional Investor Certificates. Furthermore, the targeted deposits, if any, to any applicable Series Account shall be increased proportionately to reflect the principal amount of the additional Investor Certificates.

(iii) When issued, the additional Investor Certificates of a Series or Class shall be identical in all respects to the other outstanding Investor Certificates of that Series or Class and shall be equally and ratably entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the related Supplement applicable to the previously issued Investor Certificates of such Series or Class without preference, priority or distinction.

Section 6.04 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the Trustee) (the “Transfer Agent and Registrar”) shall provide for the registration of the Registered Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of the Registered Certificates as herein provided. The Transfer Agent and Registrar shall initially be the Trustee and any co-transfer agent and co-registrar chosen by the Transferors and acceptable to the Trustee, including, if and so long as any Series or Class is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such exchange shall so require, a co-transfer agent and co-registrar in Luxembourg. Any reference in this Agreement to the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall include any co-transfer agent and registrar unless the context requires otherwise.

The Transferors may revoke such appointment and remove any Transfer Agent and Registrar if the Transferors, after consultation with the Trustee, determine in their sole

73

discretion that such transfer Agent and Registrar failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. Any Transfer Agent and Registrar shall be permitted to resign as Transfer Agent and Registrar upon 30 days’ notice to the Transferors, the Trustee and the Servicer; provided, however, that such resignation shall not be effective and such Transfer Agent and Registrar shall continue to perform its duties as Transfer Agent and Registrar until the Transferors have appointed a successor Transfer Agent and Registrar reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Subject to subsection 6.04(c) below, upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of any Registered Certificate at any office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar maintained for such purpose, one or more new Registered Certificates (of the same Series and Class) in authorized denominations of like aggregate fractional undivided interests in the Certificateholders’ Interest shall be executed, authenticated and delivered, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees.

At the option of a Registered Certificateholder, subject to subsection 6.04(c) below, Registered Certificates (of the same Series and Class) may be exchanged for other Registered Certificates of authorized denominations of like aggregate fractional undivided interests in the Certificateholders’ Interest, upon surrender of the Registered Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency; Registered Certificates, including Registered Certificates received in exchange for Bearer Certificates, may not be exchanged for Bearer Certificates. At the option of the Holder of a Bearer Certificate, subject to applicable laws and regulations, Bearer Certificates may be exchanged for other Bearer Certificates or Registered Certificates (of the same Series and Class) of authorized denominations of like aggregate fractional undivided interests in the Certificateholders’ Interest, upon surrender of the Bearer Certificates to be exchanged at an office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar located outside the United States. Each Bearer Certificate surrendered pursuant to this Section shall have attached thereto all unmatured Coupons; provided that any Bearer Certificate, so surrendered after the close of business on the Record Date preceding the relevant payment date or distribution date after the expected final payment date need not have attached the Coupon relating to such payment date or distribution date (in each case, as specified in the applicable Supplement).

The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Certificate for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Certificate.

Whenever any Investor Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Transferors shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall deliver (in the case of Bearer Certificates, outside the United States) the Investor Certificates which the Investor Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Investor Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed by the Investor Certificateholder or the attorney-in-fact thereof duly authorized in writing.

74

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Investor Certificates, but the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

All Investor Certificates (together with any Coupons) surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange or for payment shall be canceled and disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. The Trustee shall cancel and destroy any Global Certificate upon its exchange in full for Definitive Euro-Certificates and shall deliver a certificate of destruction to the Transferors. Such certificate shall also state that a certificate or certificates of a Foreign Clearing Agency to the effect referred to in Section 6.13 was received with respect to each portion of the Global Certificate exchanged for Definitive Euro-Certificates.

The Transferors shall execute and deliver to the Trustee Bearer Certificates and Registered Certificates in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to enable the Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under this Agreement, each Supplement and the Certificates.

The interest of any Investor Certificateholder in the Trust shall not be transferable other than through the transfer of an Investor Certificate, and except as provided in this Article VI, a Certificate shall not be transferable or divisible.

(b) The Transfer Agent and Registrar will maintain at its expense in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and, if and so long as any Series or Class is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, Luxembourg, an office or agency where Investor Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (except that Bearer Certificates may not be surrendered for exchange at any such office or agency in the United States or its territories and possessions).

(c) (i) Registration of transfer of Investor Certificates containing a legend substantially to the effect set forth on Exhibit G-1 shall be effected only if such transfer (x) is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act, or is exempt from the registration requirements under the Act, and (y) is made to a Person which is not an employee benefit plan, trust or account, including an individual retirement account, that is subject to Title I of ERISA or that is described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in such entity (a “Benefit Plan”). In the event that registration of a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements under the Act, the transferor or the transferee shall deliver, at its expense, to the Transferors, the Servicer and the Trustee, an investment letter from the transferee, substantially in the form of the investment and ERISA representation letter attached hereto as Exhibit G-2, and no registration of transfer shall be made until such letter is so delivered.

Investor Certificates issued upon registration or transfer of, or Investor Certificates issued in exchange for, Investor Certificates bearing the legend referred to above shall also bear such legend unless the Transferor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar receive an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to each of them, to the effect that such legend may be removed.

75

Whenever an Investor Certificate containing the legend referred to above is presented to the Transfer Agent and Registrar for registration of transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall promptly seek instructions from the Transferors regarding such transfer and shall be entitled to receive instructions signed by an officer of each Transferor prior to registering any such transfer. The Transferors hereby agree to indemnify the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee and to hold each of them harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by them in relation to any such instructions furnished pursuant to this clause (i).

(ii) Registration of transfer of Investor Certificates containing a legend to the effect set forth on Exhibit G-3 shall be effected only if such transfer is made to a Person which is not a Benefit Plan. By accepting and holding any such Investor Certificate, an Investor Certificateholder shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan. By acquiring any interest in a Book-Entry Certificate which contains such legend, a Certificate Owner shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.

(iii) If so requested by the Transferors, the Trustee will make available to any prospective purchaser of Investor Certificates who so requests, a copy of a letter provided to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Transferors relating to the transferability of any Series or Class to a Benefit Plan.

Section 6.05 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate (together, in the case of Bearer Certificates, with all unmatured Coupons (if any) appertaining thereto) is surrendered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar, or the Transfer Agent and Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Transferors shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall deliver (in the case of Bearer Certificates, outside the United States), in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and aggregate fractional undivided interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require the payment by the Certificateholder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 6.06 Persons Deemed Owners. The Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar, the Transferors and the Servicer and any agent of any of them may (a) prior to due presentation of a Registered Certificate for registration of transfer, treat the Person in whose name any Registered Certificate is registered as the owner of such Registered Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the terms of the applicable

76

Supplement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and (b) treat the bearer of a Bearer Certificate or Coupon as the owner of such Bearer Certificate or Coupon for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the terms of the applicable Supplement and for all other purposes whatsoever; and, in any such case, neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar, any Transferor, the Servicer nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in determining whether the Holders of the requisite Investor Certificates have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Certificates owned by any Transferor, the Servicer, any other Holder of a Transferor Certificate or any Affiliate thereof, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Certificates which the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Certificates so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded and may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Certificates and that the pledgee is not the Transferor, the Servicer, any other Holder of a Transferor Certificate or any Affiliate thereof. None of the Transferor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent will have any responsibility or liability for any of the records relating to or on account of beneficial ownership in Book-Entry Certificates or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing records relating thereto.

Section 6.07 Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Investor Certificateholders from the Collection Account or applicable Series Account pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Supplement and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account or applicable Series Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Supplement in any material respect. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Trustee and any co-paying agent chosen by the Transferors and acceptable to the Trustee, including, if and so long as any Series or Class is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such exchange so requires, a co-paying agent in Luxembourg or another Western European city. In the event that any Paying Agent shall resign, the Trustee shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent. The Trustee shall act as Paying Agent until a successor is appointed. The Trustee shall cause each successor or additional Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such successor or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that it will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Investor Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Investor Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Investor Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Trustee and upon removal shall also return all funds in its possession to the Trustee. The provisions of Sections 11.01, 11.02, 11.03 and 11.05 shall apply to the Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Trustee shall act as Paying Agent. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 6.08 Access to List of Registered Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Trustee will furnish or cause to be furnished by the Transfer Agent and Registrar to the Transferors, the Servicer or the Paying Agent, within five Business Days after

77

receipt by the Trustee of a request therefor, a list in such form as the Transferors, the Servicer or the Paying Agent may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Registered Certificateholders. If any Holder or group of Holders of Investor Certificates of any Series or all outstanding Series, as the case may be, evidencing not less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Series or all outstanding Series, as applicable (the “Applicants”), apply to the Trustee, and such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Investor Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or any Supplement or under the Investor Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee, after having been adequately indemnified by such Applicants for its costs and expenses, shall afford or shall cause the Transfer Agent and Registrar to afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent list of Registered Certificateholders of such Series or all outstanding Series, as applicable, held by the Trustee, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application. Such list shall be as of a date no more than 45 days prior to the date of receipt of such Applicants’ request.

With respect to any Series of Registered Certificates, every Registered Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Registered Certificate, agrees with the Trustee that neither the Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, nor any of their respective agents, shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Registered Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the sources from which such information was derived.

Section 6.09 Authenticating Agent.

(a) The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents with respect to the Certificates which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating the Certificates in connection with the issuance, delivery, registration of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Certificates. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent and certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the Transferors and the Servicer.

(b) Any institution succeeding to the corporate agency business of an authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the execution or filing of any power or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent. An authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Transferor. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Transferor. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an authenticating agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Trustee or the Transferor, the Trustee promptly may appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless acceptable to the Trustee and the Transferor. The Transferors agree to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time

78

reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. The provisions of Sections 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent.

(c) Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section, the Certificates may have indorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form:

This is one of the Certificates described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 6.10 Book-Entry Certificates. Unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement for any Series or Class, the Investor Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more master Investor Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates, to be delivered to the Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Transferor. The Investor Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the Clearing Agency or its nominee, and no Certificate Owner will receive a definitive certificate representing such Certificate Owner’s interest in the Investor Certificates, except as provided in Section 6.12. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Investor Certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) have been issued to the applicable Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 6.12 or as otherwise specified in any such Supplement:

(a) the provisions of this Section shall be in full force and effect;

(b) the Transferor, the Servicer and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all purposes (including the making of distributions) as the authorized representatives of the respective Certificate Owners;

(c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall control; and

(d) the rights of the respective Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those

79

established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 6.12, the Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related Investor Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants.

For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Investor Certificateholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Investor Certificates, such direction or consent may be given by Certificate Owners (acting through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants) owning Investor Certificates evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount of Investor Certificates.

Section 6.11 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given to Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class with respect to which Book-Entry Certificates have been issued, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to the related Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications to the applicable Clearing Agency.

Section 6.12 Definitive Certificates. If Book-Entry Certificates have been issued with respect to any Series or Class and (a) the Transferors advise the Trustee that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities under the Depository Agreement with respect to such Series or Class and the Trustee or the Transferors are unable to locate a qualified successor, (b) the Transferors, at their option, advise the Trustee that they elect to terminate the book-entry system with respect to such Series or Class through the Clearing Agency or (c) after the occurrence of a Servicer Default, Certificate Owners of such Series or Class evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Series or Class advise the Trustee and the Clearing Agency through the Clearing Agency Participants that the continuation of a book-entry system with respect to the Investor Certificates of such Series or Class through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners with respect to such Certificates, then the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners of such Certificates, through the Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of any such Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing Agency for registration, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Definitive Certificates. Neither any Transferor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of such Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of such Definitive Certificates as Investor Certificateholders hereunder.

Section 6.13 Global Certificate; Exchange Date.

(a) If specified in the related Supplement for any Series or Class, the Investor Certificates for such Series or Class will initially be issued in the form of a single temporary

80

global Certificate (the “Global Certificate”) in bearer form, without interest coupons, in the denomination of the entire aggregate principal amount of such Series or Class and substantially in the form set forth in the exhibit with respect thereto attached to the related Supplement. The Global Certificate will be executed by the Transferors and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same effect as the Definitive Certificates. The Global Certificate may be exchanged as described below for Bearer or Registered Certificates in definitive form (the “Definitive Euro-Certificates”).

(b) The Manager shall, upon its determination of the date of completion of the distribution of the Investor Certificates of such Series or Class, so advise the Trustee, the Transferor, the Depositaries, and each Foreign Clearing Agency forthwith. Without unnecessary delay, but in any event not prior to the Exchange Date, the Transferors will execute and deliver to the Trustee at its London office or its designated agent outside the United States definitive Bearer Certificates in an aggregate principal amount equal to the entire aggregate principal amount of such Series or Class. All Bearer Certificates so issued and delivered will have Coupons attached. The Global Certificate may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Euro-Certificates only on or after the Exchange Date. An institutional investor that is a U.S. Person may exchange the portion of the Global Certificate beneficially owned by it only for an equal aggregate principal amount of Registered Certificates bearing the applicable legend set forth in the form of Registered Certificates attached to the related Supplement and having a minimum denomination of $500,000, which may be in temporary form if the Transferors so elect. The Transferors may elect to waive the $500,000 minimum denomination requirement. Upon any demand for exchange for Definitive Euro-Certificates in accordance with this paragraph, the Transferors shall cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver the Definitive Euro-Certificates to the Holder (x) outside the United States, in the case of Bearer Certificates, and (y) according to the instructions of the Holder, in the case of Registered Certificates, but in either case only upon presentation to the Trustee of a written statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 with respect to the Global Certificate or portion thereof being exchanged, signed by a Foreign Clearing Agency and dated on the Exchange Date or a subsequent date, to the effect that it has received in writing or by tested telex a certification substantially in the form of (i) in the case of beneficial ownership of the Global Certificate or a portion thereof being exchanged by a United States institutional investor pursuant to the second preceding sentence, the certificate in the form of Exhibit F-2 signed by the Manager which sold the relevant Certificates or (ii) in all other cases, the certificate in the form of Exhibit F-3, the certificate referred to in this clause (ii) being dated on the earlier of the first actual payment of interest in respect of such Certificates and the date of the delivery of such Certificate in definitive form. Upon receipt of such certification, the Trustee shall cause the Global Certificate to be endorsed in accordance with paragraph (d) below. Any exchange as provided in this Section shall be made free of charge to the Holders and the beneficial owners of the Global Certificate and to the beneficial owners of the Definitive Euro-Certificates issued in exchange, except that a person receiving Definitive Euro-Certificates must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such person does not receive such Definitive Euro-Certificates in person at the offices of a Foreign Clearing Agency.

(c) The delivery to the Trustee by a Foreign Clearing Agency of any written statement referred to above may be relied upon by the Transferors and the Trustee as conclusive

81

evidence that a corresponding certification or certifications has or have been delivered to such Foreign Clearing Agency pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Upon any such exchange of all or a portion of the Global Certificate for a Definitive Euro-Certificate or Certificates, such Global Certificate shall be indorsed by or on behalf of the Trustee to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Definitive Euro-Certificate or Certificates. Until so exchanged in full, such Global Certificate shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as Definitive Euro-Certificates authenticated and delivered hereunder except that the beneficial owners of such Global Certificate shall not be entitled to receive payments of interest on the Certificates until they have exchanged their beneficial interests in such Global Certificate for Definitive Euro-Certificates.

Section 6.14 Meetings of Certificateholders.

(a) If at the time any Bearer Certificates are issued and outstanding with respect to any Series or Class to which any meeting described below relates, the Transferors or the Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class or of all Series, to be held at such time and at such place as the Transferors or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall determine, for the purpose of approving a modification of or amendment to, or obtaining a waiver of any covenant or condition set forth in, this Agreement, any Supplement or the Investor Certificates or of taking any other action permitted to be taken by Investor Certificateholders hereunder or under any Supplement or any Receivables Purchase Agreement. Notice of any meeting of Investor Certificateholders, setting forth the time and place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given in accordance with Section 13.05, the first mailing and publication to be not less than 20 nor more than 180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting. To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Investor Certificateholders a Person shall be (i) a Holder of one or more Investor Certificates of the applicable Series or Class or (ii) a person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy by the Holder of one or more such Investor Certificates. The only persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Investor Certificateholders shall be the persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel and any representatives of the Transferor, the Servicer and the Trustee and their respective counsel.

(b) At a meeting of Investor Certificateholders, persons entitled to vote Investor Certificates evidencing a majority of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the applicable Series or Class or all outstanding Series, as the case may be, shall constitute a quorum. No business shall be transacted in the absence of a quorum, unless a quorum is present when the meeting is called to order. In the absence of a quorum at any such meeting, the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days; in the absence of a quorum at any such meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days; at the reconvening of any meeting further adjourned for lack of a quorum, the persons entitled to vote Investor Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the applicable Series or Class or all outstanding Series, as the case may be, shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided above except that such notice must be given not less than five days prior to the date on which the meeting is

scheduled to be reconvened. Notice of the reconvening of an adjourned meeting shall state expressly the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding applicable Investor Certificates which shall constitute a quorum.

(c) Any Investor Certificateholder who has executed an instrument in writing appointing a person as proxy shall be deemed to be present for the purposes of determining a quorum and be deemed to have voted; provided that such Investor Certificateholder shall be considered as present or voting only with respect to the matters covered by such instrument in writing. Subject to the provisions of Section 13.01, any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of Investor Certificateholders duly held in accordance with this Section shall be binding on all Investor Certificateholders whether or not present or represented at the meeting.

(d) The holding of Bearer Certificates shall be proved by the production of such Bearer Certificates or by a certificate, satisfactory to the Transferors, executed by any bank, trust company or recognized securities dealer, wherever situated, satisfactory to the Transferors. Each such certificate shall be dated and shall state that on the date thereof a Bearer Certificate bearing a specified serial number was deposited with or exhibited to such bank, trust company or recognized securities dealer by the Person named in such certificate. Any such certificate may be issued in respect of one or more Bearer Certificates specified therein. The holding by the Person named in any such certificate of any Bearer Certificate specified therein shall be presumed to continue for a period of one year from the date of such certificate unless at the time of any determination of such holding (i) another certificate bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Certificate shall be produced, (ii) the Bearer Certificate specified in such certificate shall be produced by some other Person or (iii) the Bearer Certificate specified in such certificate shall have ceased to be outstanding. The appointment of any proxy shall be proved by having the signature of the Person executing the proxy guaranteed by any bank, trust company or recognized securities dealer satisfactory to the Trustee.

No vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Investor Certificate challenged as not outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote except as an Investor Certificateholder or proxy. Any meeting of Investor Certificateholders duly called at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

(f) The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Investor Certificateholders shall be by written ballot on which shall be subscribed the signatures of Investor Certificateholders or proxies and on which shall be inscribed the serial number or numbers of the Investor Certificates held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of Investor Certificateholders shall be prepared by the secretary of

83

the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was published as provided above. The record shall be signed and verified by the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and duplicates shall be delivered to the Servicer, the Transferors and the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

Each Transferor shall be severally, and not jointly, liable for all obligations, covenants, representations and warranties of such Transferor arising under or related to this Agreement or any Supplement. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, each Transferor shall be liable only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by it in its capacity as a Transferor.

Section 7.02 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, a Transferor. (a) No Transferor shall dissolve, liquidate, consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or convey, transfer or sell its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person (in each case, a “Surviving Entity”) unless:

(i) (x) the Surviving Entity is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by agreement supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee (in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) the performance of every covenant and obligation of such Transferor hereunder; and (y) such Transferor has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer and such supplemental agreement comply with this Section 7.02, that such supplemental agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the Surviving Entity enforceable against the Surviving Entity in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity;

(ii) all UCC filings, if any, required to perfect the interest of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, in the Receivables to be conveyed by the Surviving Entity shall have been duly made and copies thereof shall have been delivered to the Trustee;

(iii) the Trustee shall have received one or more Opinions of Counsel to the effect that (i) under the UCC, the transfer of Receivables by the Surviving Entity shall constitute either a sale of, or the granting of a security interest in, such Receivables by the Surviving Entity to the Trust, (ii) the condition specified in paragraph (ii) shall have been satisfied, and (iii) if the Surviving Entity shall be subject to the FDIA, the interest of the Trust in such Receivables should not be subject to avoidance by the FDIC if the FDIC were to become the receiver or conservator of the Surviving Entity; and

(iv) if the Surviving Entity shall not be eligible as a debtor under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), such Transferor shall have

85

delivered notice of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer to each Rating Agency or, if the Surviving Entity shall be subject to the Bankruptcy Code, such Transferor shall have delivered notice to each Rating Agency (with copies to the Servicer and the Trustee) of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer and the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied; and

(v) the Transferors shall have delivered to the Trustee and each Rating Agency a Tax Opinion, dated the date of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, with respect thereto.

(b) The obligations of each Transferor hereunder shall not be assignable nor shall any Person succeed to the obligations of the Transferors hereunder except in each case in accordance with the provisions of the foregoing paragraph or Section 7.05.

Section 7.03 Limitations on Liability of each Transferor. Subject to Section 7.01, neither any Transferor nor any of the directors, officers, employees, incorporators or agents of any Transferor acting in such capacities shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificateholders, any Series Enhancer, the Servicer, any other Transferor or any other Person for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith in such capacities pursuant to this Agreement, it being expressly understood that such liability is expressly waived and released as a condition of, and consideration for, the execution of this Agreement and any Supplement and the issuance of the Certificates; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect any Transferor or any such person against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Each Transferor and any director, officer, employee or agent of such Transferor may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person (other than such Transferor) respecting any matters arising hereunder.

Section 7.04 Liabilities. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 7.03, 8.03, 8.04 and 13.07), by entering into this Agreement, each Transferor and any Holder of the Original Transferor Certificate agrees to be liable, directly to the injured party, for the entire amount of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (other than those incurred by a Certificateholder in the capacity of an investor in the Certificates) arising out of or based on the arrangement created by this Agreement or the actions of the Servicer taken pursuant hereto (to the extent Trust Assets remaining after the Investor Certificateholders and Series Enhancers have been paid in full are insufficient to pay such losses, claims, damages or liabilities) as though this Agreement created a partnership under the New York Uniform Partnership Act in which each Transferor and each such Holder was a general partner. In the event of the appointment of a Successor Servicer, the Successor Servicer will (from its own assets and not from the assets of the Trust) indemnify and hold harmless each Transferor and each such Holder against and from any losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such Person as described in this Section arising from the actions or omissions of such Successor Servicer.

Section 7.05 Assumption of a Transferor’s Obligations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.02, each Transferor may assign, convey or transfer all of its right, title

86

and interest in, to and under the Receivables, the Accounts and the Participation Interests in which it has an interest and/or its interest in the Transferors’ Interest (collectively, the “Assigned Assets”), together with all servicing functions and other obligations, if any, under this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Assumed Obligations”), to another entity (the “Assuming Entity”) which may be an entity that is not affiliated with such Transferor, and such Transferor may assign, convey and transfer the Assigned Assets and the Assumed Obligations to the Assuming Entity, without the consent or approval of the holders of any Certificates, upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(a) the Assuming Entity, such Transferor and the Trustee shall have entered into a supplement to this Agreement or an assumption agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) (either, the “Assumption Agreement”) providing for the Assuming Entity to assume the Assumed Obligations, including the obligation under this Agreement to transfer the Receivables arising under the Accounts and the Receivables arising under any Additional Accounts to the Trust, and such Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such transfer and assumption comply with this Section 7.05, that such Assumption Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of such Assuming Entity enforceable against such Assuming Entity in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity), and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with;

(b) all UCC filings required to perfect the interest of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, in the Receivables to be conveyed by the Assuming Entity shall have been duly made and copies thereof shall have been delivered to the Trustee;

(c) (i) if the Assuming Entity shall not be eligible to be a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, such Transferor shall have delivered notice of such transfer and assumption to each Rating Agency or (ii) if the Assuming Entity shall be eligible to be a debtor in a case under the Bankruptcy Code, such Transferor shall have delivered copies of each such written notice to the Servicer and the Trustee and the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied;

(d) the Trustee shall have received one or more Opinions of Counsel to the effect that (i) the transfer of such Receivables by the Assuming Entity shall constitute either a sale of, or the granting of a security interest in, such Receivables by the Assuming Entity to the Trust, (ii) the condition specified in paragraph (b) shall have been satisfied, and (iii) if the Assuming Entity shall be subject to the FDIA, the interest of the Trust in such Receivables should not be subject to avoidance by the FDIC if the FDIC were to become the receiver or conservator of the Assuming Entity; and

(e) the Trustee shall have received a Tax Opinion.

Upon such transfer to and assumption by the Assuming Entity, such Transferor shall surrender the Transferor Certificate, if applicable, evidencing its interest in the Trust to the Transfer Agent

87

and Registrar for registration of transfer and the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall issue a new Transferor Certificate, if applicable, in the name of the Assuming Entity (or, if applicable, register such Assuming Entity’s uncertificated interest in the Transferors’ Interest). Notwithstanding such assumption, such Transferor shall continue to be liable for all representations and warranties and covenants made by it and all obligations performed or to be performed by it in its capacity as Transferor prior to such transfer.

Section 7.06 Expenses. The Transferors shall pay out of their own funds, without reimbursement, all expenses incurred in connection with the Trust, including the costs of filing any amendment to UCC financing statements, the costs and expenses relating to obtaining and maintaining the listing of any Investor Certificates on any stock exchange, and any stamp, documentary, excise, property (whether on real, personal or intangible property) or any similar tax levied on the Trust or the Trust’s assets that are not expressly stated in this Agreement to be payable by the Trust or a Transferor.

Section 8.02 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the Servicer. The Servicer shall not consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or convey, transfer or sell its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person unless:

(a) (i) the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Servicer is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance, transfer or sale the properties and assets of the Servicer substantially as an entirety shall be, if the Servicer is not the surviving entity, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State or the District of Columbia, and, if the Servicer is not the surviving entity, such corporation shall expressly assume, by an agreement supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the performance of every covenant and obligation of the Servicer hereunder;

(ii) the Servicer has delivered to the Transferors and the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or sale comply with this Section and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with;

(iii) the Servicer shall have given the Rating Agencies notice of such consolidation, merger or transfer of assets; and

(b) the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Servicer is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer the properties and assets of the Servicer substantially as an entirety shall be or shall be immediately thereafter an Eligible Servicer.

Section 8.03 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. Except as provided in Section 8.04 and Section 11.05, neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificateholders, any Series Enhancer, the Transferors or any other Person for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith in its capacity as Servicer pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person (other than the Servicer) respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in,

89

prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties as Servicer in accordance with this Agreement and which in its reasonable judgment may involve it in any expense or liability. The Servicer may, in its sole discretion, undertake any such legal action which it may deem necessary or desirable for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder.

Section 8.04 Servicer Indemnification of the Trust and the Trustee. The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Transferors (in the case of clause (a)) and the Trust and the Trustee from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury arising out of or relating to any claims, actions or proceedings brought or asserted by third parties which are suffered or sustained by reason of (a) any acts or omissions of the Servicer with respect to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement or (b) the administration by the Trustee of the Trust (in the case of clause (a) or (b), other than such as shall arise from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or the Transferors, as applicable, or as may arise as a result of action taken by the Trustee at the request of the Investor Certificateholder or any federal, state or local income or franchise taxes (or any interest or penalties with respect thereto) required to be paid by the Trustee or the Investor Certificateholder in connection herewith to any taxing authority), including any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any action, proceeding or claim. Indemnification pursuant to this Section shall not be payable from the Trust Assets, but shall be payable only from the assets of the Servicer. The provisions of this Section 8.04 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the resignation and removal of the Trustee.

Section 8.05 Resignation of the Servicer. The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (a) upon determination that (i) the performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under applicable law and (ii) there is no reasonable action which the Servicer could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under applicable law or (b) upon the assumption, by an agreement supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Transferors and the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Transferors and the Trustee, of the obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder by any of its Affiliates or by any other entity the appointment of which shall have satisfied the Rating Agency Condition and, in either case, qualifies as an Eligible Servicer. Any determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced as to clause (a) above by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee and the Transferors. No resignation shall become effective until the Trustee or a Successor Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer in accordance with Section 10.02 hereof. If within 120 days of the date of the determination that the Servicer may no longer act as Servicer under clause (a) above the Trustee is unable to appoint a Successor Servicer, the Trustee shall serve as Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall, if it is legally unable so to act, petition a court of competent jurisdiction at the expense of the resigning Servicer to appoint any established institution qualifying as an Eligible Servicer as the Successor Servicer hereunder. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to each Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer upon the appointment of a Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, TRS or Centurion Bank, as Servicer, may assign part or all of its obligations and duties as Servicer under this Agreement to an Affiliate of TRS so long as TRS or Centurion Bank, as the case may be, shall have fully guaranteed the performance of such

90

obligations and duties under this Agreement and such assignment will not constitute a resignation.

Section 8.06 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Receivables. The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee access to the documentation regarding the Accounts and the Receivables in such cases where the Trustee is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights of Certificateholders or by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge but only (a) upon reasonable request, (b) during normal business hours, (c) subject to the Servicer’s normal security and confidentiality procedures or such procedures as the Servicer may deem reasonably necessary and (d) at reasonably accessible offices in the continental United States designated by the Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall derogate from the obligation of the Transferor, the Trustee and the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

Section 8.07 Delegation of Duties. Subject to Section 14.08, in the ordinary course of business, the Servicer may at any time delegate all or part of its duties hereunder with respect to the Accounts and the Receivables to any Person that agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with the applicable Credit Guidelines and this Agreement. Such delegation shall not relieve the Servicer of its liability and responsibility with respect to such duties, and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 8.05.

Section 8.08 Examination of Records. Each Transferor and the Servicer shall indicate generally in their computer files or other records that the Receivables arising in the Accounts have been conveyed to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, pursuant to this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Transferor and the Servicer shall, prior to the sale or transfer to a third party of any receivable held in its custody, examine its computer records and other records to determine that such receivable is not, and does not include, a Receivable.

Notwithstanding any cessation of the transfer to the Trust of additional Principal Receivables, Principal Receivables transferred to the Trust prior to the occurrence of such Insolvency Event, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables and Finance Charge Receivables (whenever created) accrued in respect of such Principal Receivables shall continue to be a part of the Trust Assets.

SERVICER DEFAULTS

Section 10.01 Servicer Defaults. If any one of the following events (a “Servicer Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(a) any failure by the Servicer to make any payment, transfer or deposit or to give instructions or to give notice to the Trustee to make such payment, transfer or deposit on or before the date occurring five Business Days after the date such payment, transfer or deposit or such instruction or notice is required to be made or given, as the case may be, under the terms of this Agreement or any Supplement; provided, however, that any such failure caused by a nonwillful act of the Servicer shall not constitute a Servicer Default if the Servicer promptly remedies such failure within five Business Days after receiving notice of such failure or otherwise becoming aware of such failure;

(b) failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement or any Supplement which has an Adverse Effect and which continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee, or to the Servicer and the Trustee by Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any such failure that does not relate to all Series, 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Series adversely affected by such failure); or the Servicer shall assign or delegate its duties under this Agreement, except as permitted by Sections 8.02 and 8.07;

(c) any representation, warranty or certification made by the Servicer in this Agreement or any Supplement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement shall prove to have been incorrect when made, which has an Adverse Effect on the rights of the Investor Certificateholders of any Series (which determination shall be made without regard to whether funds are then available pursuant to any Series Enhancement) and which Adverse Effect continues for a period of 60 days after the date on which notice thereof, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee, or to the Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any such representation, warranty or certification that does not relate to all Series, 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Series adversely affected by such representation, warranty or certification); or

(d) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a bankruptcy trustee or conservator or receiver or liquidator in any bankruptcy proceeding or other insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all its property, or a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a bankruptcy trustee or a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or the winding-up or liquidation

93

of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, make any assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or such Transferor or Holder of the Transferor Certificate shall consent to, or fail to object to, the filing of any such petition, or, if such Transferor or Holder of the Original Transferor Certificate shall so object to the filing of any such petition, such petition shall not have been dismissed within 60 days of the filing thereof;

then, in the event of any Servicer Default, so long as the Servicer Default shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee, or the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates, by notice then given to the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the Investor Certificateholders) (a “Termination Notice”), may terminate all but not less than all the rights and obligations of the Servicer as Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, if within 60 days of receipt of a Termination Notice the Trustee does not receive any bids from Eligible Servicers in accordance with subsection 10.02(c) to act as a Successor Servicer and receives Officers’ Certificates of the Transferors to the effect that the Servicer cannot in good faith cure the Servicer Default which gave rise to the Termination Notice, the Trustee shall, except in the case of a Servicer Default set forth in subsection 10.01(d), grant the Transferors the right of first refusal to purchase the Certificateholders’ Interest on the Distribution Date in the next calendar month.

The purchase price for the Certificateholders’ Interest shall be equal to the sum of the amounts specified therefor with respect to each outstanding Series in the related Supplement. The Transferors shall notify the Trustee prior to the Record Date for the Distribution Date of the purchase if the Transferors are exercising such right of first refusal. If the Transferors exercise such right of first refusal, the Transferors shall deposit the purchase price into the Collection Account on such Distribution Date in immediately available funds. The purchase price shall be allocated and distributed to Investor Certificateholders in accordance with the terms of each Supplement.

After receipt by the Servicer of a Termination Notice, and on the date that a Successor Servicer is appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.02, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement shall pass to and be vested in the Successor Servicer (a “Service Transfer”); and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered (upon the failure of the Servicer to cooperate) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments upon the failure of the Servicer to execute or deliver such documents or instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such Service Transfer. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee and such Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing hereunder, including the transfer to such Successor Servicer of all authority of the Servicer to service the Receivables provided for under this Agreement, including all authority over all Collections which shall on the date of transfer be held by the Servicer for deposit, or which have been deposited by the Servicer, in the Collection Account, or which shall thereafter be received with respect to the Receivables, and in assisting the Successor Servicer. The Servicer shall within 20

94

Business Days transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Successor Servicer in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request and shall promptly transfer to the Successor Servicer all other records, correspondence and documents necessary for the continued servicing of the Receivables in the manner and at such times as the Successor Servicer shall reasonably request. To the extent that compliance with this Section shall require the Servicer to disclose to the Successor Servicer information of any kind which the Servicer deems to be confidential, the Successor Servicer shall be required to enter into such licensing and confidentiality agreements as the Servicer shall deem reasonably necessary to protect its interests.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delay in or failure of performance referred to in paragraph (a) above for a period of 10 Business Days after the applicable grace period or under paragraph (b) or (c) above for a period of 60 Business Days after the applicable grace period, shall not constitute a Servicer Default if such delay or failure could not be prevented by the exercise of reasonable diligence by the Servicer and such delay or failure was caused by an act of God or the public enemy, acts of declared or undeclared war, public disorder, rebellion or sabotage, epidemics, landslides, lightning, fire, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods or similar causes. The preceding sentence shall not relieve the Servicer from using all commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations in a timely manner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Servicer shall provide the Trustee, each Transferor and any Series Enhancer with an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer giving prompt notice of such failure or delay by it, together with a description of its efforts so to perform its obligations.

Section 10.02 Trustee To Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) On and after the receipt by the Servicer of a Termination Notice pursuant to Section 10.01, the Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing functions under this Agreement until the date specified in the Termination Notice or otherwise specified by the Trustee or until a date mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and Trustee. The Trustee shall as promptly as possible after the giving of a Termination Notice appoint an Eligible Servicer as a successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Trustee and the Transferors. The Transferors shall have the right to nominate to the Trustee the name of a potential successor servicer which nominee shall be selected by the Trustee as the Successor Servicer. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed or has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer. The Trustee may delegate any of its servicing obligations to an Affiliate or agent in accordance with subsection 3.01(b) and Section 8.07. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall, if it is legally unable so to act, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution qualifying as an Eligible Servicer as the Successor Servicer hereunder. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Transferors, each Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer upon the appointment of a Successor Servicer.

(b) Upon its appointment, the Successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by

the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer.

(c) In connection with any Termination Notice, the Trustee will review any bids which it obtains from Eligible Servicers and shall be permitted to appoint any Eligible Servicer submitting such a bid as a Successor Servicer or, as provided in subsection 10.02(a), the Successor Servicer nominated by the Transferors for servicing compensation not in excess of the aggregate Servicing Fees for all Series plus the sum of the amounts with respect to each Series and with respect to each Distribution Date equal to any Collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocable to Investor Certificateholders of such Series which are payable to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates after payment of all amounts owing to the Investor Certificateholders of such Series with respect to such Distribution Date or required to be deposited in the applicable Series Accounts with respect to such Distribution Date and any amounts required to be paid to any Series Enhancer for such Series with respect to such Distribution Date pursuant to the terms of any Enhancement Agreement; provided, however, that the Holders of the Transferor Certificates shall be responsible for payment of their portion of such aggregate Servicing Fees and all other such amounts in excess of such aggregate Servicing Fees. Each holder of any of the Transferor’s Certificates agrees that, if TRS (or any Successor Servicer) is terminated as Servicer hereunder, the portion of the Collections in respect of Finance Charge Receivables that the Transferors are entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement shall be reduced by an amount sufficient to pay the Transferors’ share of the compensation of the Successor Servicer.

(d) All authority and power granted to the Successor Servicer under this Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 12.01, and shall pass to and be vested in the Transferors and, without limitation, the Transferors are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Successor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such transfer of servicing rights. The Successor Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Transferors in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Successor Servicer to conduct servicing of the Receivables. The Successor Servicer shall transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Transferors or their designee in such electronic form as it may reasonably request and shall transfer all other records, correspondence and documents to it in the manner and at such times as it shall reasonably request. To the extent that compliance with this Section shall require the Successor Servicer to disclose to the Transferors information of any kind which the Successor Servicer deems to be confidential, the Transferors shall be required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality agreements as the Successor Servicer shall deem necessary to protect its interests.

Section 10.03 Notification to Certificateholders. Within five Business Days after the Servicer becomes aware of any Servicer Default, the Servicer shall give notice thereof to the Transferors, the Trustee, each Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer and the Trustee shall give notice to the Investor Certificateholders. Upon any termination or appointment of a Successor Servicer pursuant to this Article, the Trustee shall give prompt notice thereof to the Investor Certificateholders.

THE TRUSTEE

Section 11.01 Duties of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge and after the curing of all Servicer Defaults which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no implied duties or covenants by the Trustee shall be read into this Agreement. If a Servicer Default to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

(b) In the absence of bad faith or recklessness on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they substantially conform to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to each Transferor and the Servicer of any material lack of conformity of any such instrument to the applicable requirements of this Agreement discovered by the Trustee which would entitle a specified percentage of Investor Certificateholders to take any action pursuant to this Agreement.

If, within five Business Days, a Transferor or the Servicer shall not have cured such material lack of conformity, the Trustee shall provide notice thereof to the Investor Certificateholders.

(c) Subject to subsection 11.01(a), no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:

(i) the Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any such action that does not relate to all Series, 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investor Certificates of all Series to which such action relates) relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any

98

remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; and

(iii) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the Servicer referred to in subsection 10.01(a) or (b) nor with knowledge of a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives notice of such failure or event from any Transferor, the Servicer or any Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing not less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any such failure that does not relate to all Series, 10% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investors Certificates of all Series to which such failure relates).

(d) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement, the Trustee shall take no actions reasonably likely to impair the interests of the Trust in any Receivable now existing or hereafter created or to impair the value of any Receivable now existing or hereafter created.

(f) Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Trustee shall have no power to vary the corpus of the Trust including by (i) accepting any substitute obligation for a Receivable initially assigned to the Trust under Section 2.01 or 2.09, (ii) adding any other investment, obligation or security to the Trust or (iii) withdrawing from the Trust any Receivables.

(g) In the event that the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall fail to perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required to be performed by the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be obligated promptly upon its knowledge thereof to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required.

Section 11.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.01:

(a) the Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in acting on, or in refraining from acting in accord with, any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, Officer’s Certificate, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, approval, bond or other

99

paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented to it pursuant to this Agreement by the proper party or parties;

(b) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its choice and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;

(c) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default (which has not been cured or waived) to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs;

(d) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, approval, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine, unless requested in writing so to do by Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 25% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any such matters that do not relate to all Series, 25% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investor Certificates of all Series to which such matters relate); provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses, or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such cost, expense, or liability as a condition to so proceed;

(f) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, attorney or custodian appointed with due care by it hereunder;

(g) except as may be required by subsection 11.01(a), the Trustee shall not be required to make any initial or periodic examination of any documents or records related to the Receivables or the Accounts for the purpose of establishing the presence or absence of defects, the compliance by the Transferors with their representations and warranties or for any other purpose;

100

(h) whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.02;

(i) the Trustee shall have no liability with respect to the acts or omissions of the Servicer (except and to the extent the Servicer is the Trustee), including, acts or omissions in connection with the servicing, management or administration of Receivables; calculations made by the Servicer whether or not reported to the Trustee; and deposits into or withdrawals from any accounts or funds established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

(j) in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and Registrar hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article XI shall also be afforded to such Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar; and

(k) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Servicer Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Certificates and this Agreement.

Section 11.03 Trustee Not Liable for Recitals in Certificates. The Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates). Except as set forth in Section 11.15, the Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Supplement or of the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates) or of any Receivable or related document or as to the perfection or priority of any security interest therein or as to the efficacy of the Trust. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Transferors of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Transferors in respect of the Receivables or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account, any Series Accounts or any other accounts hereafter established to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.04 Trustee May Own Certificates. Subject to any restrictions that may otherwise be imposed by Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975(e) of the Code, the Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Investor Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Trustee.

Section 11.05 The Servicer To Pay Trustee’s Fees and Expenses. The Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trust hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and the Servicer shall pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Enhancement Agreement (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents, any co-trustee and counsel) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall arise from its negligence or bad faith and except

101

as provided in the following sentence. If the Trustee is appointed Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 10.02, the provisions of this Section shall not apply to expenses, disbursements and advances made or incurred by the Trustee in its capacity as Successor Servicer, which shall be paid out of the Servicing Fee. The Servicer’s covenant to pay the expenses, disbursements and advances provided for in this Section shall survive the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

Section 11.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or any state thereof authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, have a net worth of at least $50,000,000, be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority and maintain any credit or deposit rating required by any Rating Agency (which shall be Baa3, in the case of Moody’s unless otherwise notified, and BBB- in the case of Standard & Poor’s unless otherwise notified) or any higher credit or deposit rating required in connection with the issuance of a particular Series. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then, for the purpose of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 11.07.

Section 11.07 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Transferors and the Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Transferors shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

(b) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.06 and shall fail to resign after request therefor by the Transferors, or if at any time the Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Transferors may remove the Trustee and promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee.

(c) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 11.08.

102

Section 11.08 Successor Trustee.

(a) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 11.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Transferors, to the Servicer and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver, at the expense of the Servicer, to the successor trustee all documents or copies thereof and statements held by it hereunder; and the Transferors and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

(b) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.06.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, the appointment of a successor trustee shall not be effective unless the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

(d) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, such successor trustee shall provide notice of such succession hereunder to all Certificateholders and the Servicer shall provide such notice to each Rating Agency and each Series Enhancer.

Section 11.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 11.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any Requirements of Law of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments, subject to the prior written consent of the Transferors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint one or more persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor

103

trustee under Section 11.06 and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 11.08.

(b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

(i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act) except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as Successor Servicer) the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee;

(ii) no trustee hereunder shall be liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

(iii) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Transferors and the Servicer.

(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 11.11 Tax Returns. In the event the Trust shall be required to file tax returns, the Servicer shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared such tax returns and shall provide such tax returns to the Trustee for signature at least five days before such tax returns are due to be filed. The Servicer, in accordance with the terms of each Supplement, shall also prepare or shall cause to be prepared all tax information required by law to be distributed to Investor

104

Certificateholders and shall deliver such information to the Trustee at least five days prior to the date it is required by law to be distributed to Investor Certificateholders. The Trustee, upon request, will furnish the Servicer with all such information known to the Trustee as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation of all tax returns of the Trust, and shall, upon request, execute such returns. The Servicer shall provide the Transferors with copies of all such tax returns.

Section 11.12 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Certificates. All rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee. Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Certificateholders in respect of which such judgment has been obtained.

Section 11.13 Suits for Enforcement.

(a) If a Servicer Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, in its discretion may, subject to the provisions of Sections 11.01 and 11.14, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement by suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other remedy as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee or the Certificateholders.

(b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Certificateholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Investor Certificates or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Certificateholder in any such proceeding.

Section 11.14 Rights of Certificateholders To Direct Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Supplement, holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Investor Certificates (or, with respect to any remedy, trust or power that does not relate to all Series, 50% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Investor Certificates of all Series to which such remedy, trust or power relates) shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided, however, that, subject to Section 11.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee after being advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Investor Certificateholders not parties to such direction; and provided further that nothing in this

105

Agreement shall impair the right of the Trustee to take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction of the Investor Certificateholders.

Section 11.15 Representations and Warranties of Trustee. The Trustee represents and warrants that:

(i) the Trustee is a banking corporation organized, existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of New York;

(ii) the Trustee has full power, authority and right to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and each Supplement, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement and each Supplement;

(iii) this Agreement and each Supplement has been duly executed and delivered by the Trustee;

(iv) the Trustee satisfies the eligibility requirements prescribed by Section 11.06; and

(v) the Trustee will not use any office, place of business, agents or employees of the Trustee in the State of Florida to act for, or on behalf of, the Trust or the Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee of the Trust), except to the extent that the Trustee first provides an opinion (at the sole expense of the Transferor) of counsel satisfactory to the Transferors and the Servicer stating that any such activities proposed to be carried on in Florida will not cause the Trust to be subject to any Florida income, franchise or property (including intangibles) tax.

Section 11.16 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Trustee will maintain at its expense an office or agency (the “Corporate Trust Office”) where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served in the State of New York. The Trustee maintains its Corporate Trust Office at 101 Barclay Street, Floor 7 West, New York, New York 10286, as such office and will give prompt notice to the Servicer and to Investor Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

ARTICLE XII

TERMINATION

Section 12.01 Termination of Trust. The Trust and the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Transferors, the Servicer and the Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to Investor Certificateholders as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate, except with respect to the duties described in Section 8.04 and subsection 12.02(b), upon the earlier of (i) May 1, 2040 and (ii) at the option of the Transferors, the day following the Distribution Date on which the Invested Amount for each Series is zero.

Section 12.02 Final Distribution.

(a) The Servicer shall give the Transferors and the Trustee at least 30 days’ prior notice of the Distribution Date on which the Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class may surrender their Investor Certificates for payment of the final distribution on and cancellation of such Investor Certificates (or, in the event of a final distribution resulting from the application of Section 2.06 or 10.01, notice of such Distribution Date promptly after the Servicer has determined that a final distribution will occur, if such determination is made less than 30 days prior to such Distribution Date). Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer setting forth the information specified in Section 3.05 covering the period during the then-current calendar year through the date of such notice. Not later than the fifth day of the month in which the final distribution in respect of such Series or Class is payable to Investor Certificateholders, the Trustee shall provide notice to Investor Certificateholders of such Series or Class specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of such Series or Class will be made upon presentation and surrender of Investor Certificates of such Series or Class at the office or offices therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such payment date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of such Investor Certificates at the office or offices therein specified (which, in the case of Bearer Certificates, shall be outside the United States). The Trustee shall give such notice to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Investor Certificateholders.

(b) Notwithstanding a final distribution to the Investor Certificateholders of any Series or Class (or the termination of the Trust), except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, all funds then on deposit in the Collection Account and any Series Account allocated to such Investor Certificateholders shall continue to be held in trust for the benefit of such Investor Certificateholders and the Paying Agent or the Trustee shall pay such funds to such Investor Certificateholders upon surrender of their Investor Certificates, if certificated (and any excess shall be paid in accordance with the terms of any Enhancement Agreement). In the event that all such Investor Certificateholders shall not surrender their Investor Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the notice from the Trustee described in paragraph (a), the Trustee shall give a second notice to the remaining such Investor Certificateholders to surrender their Investor Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto (which surrender and payment, in the case of Bearer Certificates, shall be outside the United States). If within one year after the second notice all such Investor Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take

107

appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining such Investor Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Investor Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds in the Collection Account or any Series Account held for the benefit of such Investor Certificateholders. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Transferors any monies held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years. After payment to the Transferor, Investor Certificateholders entitled to the money must look to the Transferors for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.

(c) In the event that the Invested Amount with respect to any Series is greater than zero on its Series Termination Date (after giving effect to deposits and distributions otherwise to be made on such Series Termination Date) the Trustee will sell or cause to be sold on such Series Termination Date an amount of Principal Receivables (or interests therein) equal to 100% of the Invested Amount with respect to such Series on such Series Termination Date plus related Finance Charge Receivables (after giving effect to such deposits and distributions); provided, however, that in no event shall such amount exceed the Series Allocation Percentage of Receivables with respect to such Series on such Series Termination Date. The proceeds (the “Termination Proceeds”) from such sale shall be immediately deposited into the Collection Account for such Series. The Termination Proceeds shall be allocated and distributed to Investor Certificateholders of such Series in accordance with the terms of the applicable Supplement.

Section 12.03 Transferor’s Termination Rights. Upon the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 12.01 and the surrender of the Transferor Certificates, if applicable, the Trustee shall sell, assign and convey to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates or any of their designees, without recourse, representation or warranty, all right, title and interest of the Trustee in the Receivables, whether then existing or thereafter created, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto (including all monies then held in the Collection Account or any Series Account) and all proceeds thereof, except for amounts held by the Trustee pursuant to subsection 12.02(b).

(i) the Transferors irrevocably shall have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (such deposit to be made from other than the Transferors’ or any Affiliate of the Transferors’ funds), under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for making the payments described below, (A) Dollars in an amount equal to, or (B) Eligible Investments which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof will provide, not later than the due date of payment thereon, money in an amount equal to, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient to pay and discharge (without relying on income or gain from reinvestment of such amount), and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, all remaining scheduled interest and principal payments on all outstanding Investor Certificates of each Defeased Series on the dates scheduled for such payments in this Agreement and the applicable Supplements and all amounts owing to the Series Enhancers with respect to each Defeased Series;

(ii) a statement from a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Transferors) to the effect that such deposit is sufficient to pay the amounts specified in clause (i) above;

(iii) prior to its first exercise of its right pursuant to this Section 12.04 with respect to a Defeased Series to substitute money or Eligible Investments for Receivables, the Transferors shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect contemplated by clause (b) of the definition in Section 1.01 of the term “Tax Opinion” (the preparation and delivery of which shall not be at the expense of the Trustee) with respect to such deposit and termination of obligations, and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such deposit and termination of obligations will not result in the Trust being required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act and (B) if the Transferors’ long-term unsecured debt obligations are not rated at least P-3 or Baa3, respectively, by Moody’s, such deposit and termination of obligations would not be a fraudulent conveyance (based in reliance on certain certificates to the effect that the Receivables and termination of obligations constitute fair value for consideration paid therefor and as to the solvency of the Transferors);

109

(iv) the Transferors shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Transferors stating the Transferors reasonably believe that such deposit and termination of obligations will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such certification, then cause a Pay-Out Event with respect to any Series or any event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would result in the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event with respect to any Series; and

(v) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and the Transferors shall have delivered copies of such written notice to the Servicer and the Trustee.

TRANSFEROR CERTIFICATE

THIS CERTIFICATE REPRESENTS AN INTEREST

IN CERTAIN ASSETS OF THE

AMERICAN EXPRESS CREDIT ACCOUNT MASTER TRUST

Evidencing an interest in a trust, the corpus of which consists primarily of an interest in receivables generated from time to time in the ordinary course of business in a portfolio of revolving credit card and other accounts transferred by American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“RFC III”), and American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“RFC IV”), each as a transferor (together, the “Transferors”).

(Not an interest in or obligation of the Transferors

or any affiliate thereof)

This certifies that RFC III and RFC IV are the registered owners of a fractional interest in the assets of a trust (the “Trust”) not allocated to the Certificateholders’ Interest or the interest of any Holder of a Supplemental Certificate pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of [            ], 2015 (as amended and supplemented, the “Agreement”), among the Transferors, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., as servicer (the “Servicer”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The corpus of the Trust consists of (i) the Transferors’ fractional undivided interest in a portfolio of certain receivables (the “Receivables”) existing in the revolving credit card and other accounts identified under the Agreement from time to time (the “Accounts”), (ii) certain Receivables generated under the Accounts from time to time thereafter, (iii) certain funds collected or to be collected from accountholders in respect of the

A-1

Receivables, (iv) all funds which are from time to time on deposit in the Collection Account, Special Funding Account and in the Series Accounts, (v) the benefits of any Series Enhancements issued and to be issued by Series Enhancers with respect to one or more Series of Investor Certificates and (vi) all other assets and interests constituting the Trust, including Recoveries and Issuer Rate Fees allocated to the Trust pursuant to the Agreement and any Supplement.

A copy of the Agreement may be requested from the Trustee by writing to the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement, as amended and supplemented from time to time, the Transferors by virtue of the acceptance hereof assent and are bound.

The Receivables consist of Principal Receivables which arise generally from the purchase of merchandise and services and amounts advanced to cardholders as cash advances and Finance Charge Receivables which arise generally from Periodic Finance Charges, Late Fees and other fees and charges with respect to the Accounts.

This Certificate is the Transferor Certificate, which represents the Transferors’ interest in certain assets of the Trust, including the right to receive a portion of the Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in the Agreement. The aggregate interest represented by the Transferor Certificate at any time in the Receivables in the Trust shall not exceed the Transferors’ Interest at such time. In addition to the Transferor Certificate, (i) Investor Certificates will be issued to investors pursuant to the Agreement, which will represent the Certificateholders’ Interest, and (ii) Supplemental Certificates may be issued pursuant to the Agreement, which will represent that portion of the Transferors’ Interest not allocated to the Transferors. This Transferor Certificate shall not represent any interest in the Collection Account, the Special Funding Account or the Series Accounts, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, or any Series Enhancements.

Unless otherwise specified in a Supplement with respect to a particular Series the Transferors have entered into the Agreement, and this Certificate is issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, (i) the Investor Certificates of each Series which are characterized as indebtedness at the time of their issuance will qualify as indebtedness of the Transferors secured by the Receivables and (ii) the Trust shall not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation. The Transferors, by entering into the Agreement and by the acceptance of this Transferor Certificate, agree to treat the Investor Certificates for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Transferors.

Subject to certain conditions and exceptions specified in the Agreement, the obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) May 1, 2040 and (ii) the day following the Distribution Date on which the Invested

A-2

Amount and Enhancement Invested Amount for each Series is zero (provided the Transferors have delivered a written notice to the Trustee electing to terminate the Trust).

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

(a) The Transferors do hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey, without recourse except as set forth in the Agreement, to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, all their respective right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables existing in each of the Additional Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Additional Accounts) at the close of business on the Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter created from time to time until the termination of the Trust, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and all Collections (including allocable Recoveries and Issuer Rate Fees) and proceeds (including Insurance Proceeds and “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof. The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by the Trust, the Trustee, any Investor Certificateholder or any Series Enhancer of any obligation of the Servicer, the Transferors or any other Person in connection with the Accounts, the Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto.

(b) The Transferors agree to record and file, at their own expense, financing statements (and amendments to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Receivables existing as of the Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter created in Additional Accounts, meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the transfer, assignment, set-over or other conveyance of their interest in such Receivables to the Trust, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of each such financing statement or amendment or other evidence of such filing to the Trustee on or prior to the Addition Date. The Trustee shall be under no obligation whatsoever to file such financing statements or amendments thereto or to make any other filing under the UCC in connection with such transfer and assignment.

(c) The Transferors further agree, at their own expense, on or prior to the date of this Assignment, to indicate in the appropriate computer files that Receivables created in connection with the Additional Accounts designated hereby have been conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to the Agreement and this Assignment for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including in the securitization field of such computer files the code “[    ]” [or “[    ],” as applicable,] for each such Additional Account.

B-2

(d) The parties hereto intend that each transfer of Receivables and other property pursuant to this Assignment constitute a sale, and not a secured borrowing, for accounting purposes. Nevertheless, the Transferors do hereby grant to the Trustee a security interest in all of their respective right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables existing in each of the Additional Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Additional Accounts) at the close of business on the Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter created from time to time until the termination of the Trust, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and all Collections (including allocable Recoveries and Issuer Rate Fees) and proceeds (including Insurance Proceeds and “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof. This Assignment constitutes a security agreement under the UCC.

4. Acceptance by Trustee. The Trustee hereby acknowledges its acceptance on behalf of the Trust of all right, title and interest to the property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3 of this Assignment, and declares that it shall maintain such right, title and interest, upon the trust set forth in the Agreement for the benefit of all Certificateholders. The Trustee further acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Assignment, the Transferors delivered to the Trustee the computer files or lists described in Section 2 of this Assignment.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Transferors. Each Transferor hereby severally represents and warrants to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, as of the date of this Assignment and as of the Addition Date that:

(a) Legal Valid and Binding Obligation. This Assignment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Transferor, enforceable against such 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) Eligibility of Accounts. As of the Addition Selection Date, each related Additional Account designated hereby is an Eligible Account and each Receivable then existing in each related Additional Account designated hereby is an Eligible Receivable;

(c) Insolvency. As of the Addition Cut-Off Date and the Addition Date, no Insolvency Event with respect to such Transferor has occurred and the transfer by such Transferor of Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts to the Trust has not been made in contemplation of the occurrence thereof;

(d) Pay-Out Event. Such Transferor reasonably believes that (A) the addition of the Receivables arising in the related Additional Accounts will not, based on the facts known to such Transferor, then or thereafter cause a Pay-Out Event to occur with respect to any Series and (B) no selection procedure was utilized by such Transferor which would result in the selection of Additional Accounts (from among the Eligible Accounts available to such

B-3

Transferor) that would be materially adverse to the interests of the Investor Certificateholders of any Series as of the Addition Date;

(e) Security Interest. This Assignment constitutes either a valid transfer and assignment to the Trustee of all right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, of such Transferor in the Receivables existing in each of the related Additional Accounts at the close of business on the Addition Cut-Off Date or thereafter created, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and, to the extent set forth in the UCC in effect in the relevant state, the “proceeds” thereof, or it constitutes a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in favor of the Trustee in such property, which security interest is prior to all other Liens (as defined in the Agreement) except as permitted under the Agreement, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from such Transferor. Upon the filing of the financing statements described in Section 3 of this Assignment and, in the case of the Receivables hereafter created and the proceeds thereof, upon the creation thereof, the Trustee shall have a first priority perfected security or ownership interest in such property, except for (i) Liens permitted under clause (d) of the definition of “Eligible Receivable” in the Agreement, (ii) the interests of the holders of the Transferor Certificates under the Agreement and (iii) the right to receive interest and investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) in respect of the Collection Account as provided in the Agreement or any Series Account if so provided in the applicable Supplement. The related Receivables described in Section 3 of this Assignment constitute “accounts” or “general intangibles” within the meaning of the applicable UCC;

(f) Creation. At the time of its transfer of any Receivable to the Trustee pursuant to this Assignment, such Transferor owned and had good and marketable title to such Receivable, free and clear of any Lien (except as permitted under the Agreement), claim or encumbrance of any Person;

(g) Perfection. Such Transferor has caused or will have caused, within ten (10) days of the initial execution of this Assignment, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted by such Transferor to the Trustee pursuant to this Assignment;

(h) Priority. Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Assignment, such Transferor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed the Receivables described in Section 3 of this Assignment. Such Transferor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statement against such Transferor that includes a description of such Receivables other than any financing statement relating to the transfer and security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant to the Agreement or this Assignment or that has been terminated. Such Transferor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against such Transferor;

(i) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Transferor of this Assignment, the performance by such Transferor of the transactions contemplated by this Assignment and the fulfillment by such Transferor of the terms hereof applicable to such Transferor, will not conflict with or violate any Requirements of Law applicable to such

(j) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations, pending or, to the best knowledge of such Transferor, threatened against such Transferor before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or governmental instrumentality (i) asserting the invalidity of this Assignment, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Assignment, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of such Transferor, would materially and adversely affect the performance by such Transferor of its obligations under this Assignment or (iv) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Assignment;

(k) All Consents. All authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of any court or other governmental authority required to be obtained by such Transferor in connection with the execution and delivery of this Assignment by such Transferor and the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Assignment by such Transferor, have been obtained; and

(l) List of Accounts. As of the Addition Date, to the best knowledge of the Transferors, the computer files or lists of Additional Accounts comply with the requirements of Section 2 hereof.

The representations and warranties in clauses (e) through (h) above shall survive until the termination of the Agreement. Such representations and warranties speak as of the date of this Assignment and as of the Addition Date but shall not be waived by any of the parties to this Assignment unless each Rating Agency shall have notified the Transferors, the Servicer and the Trustee in writing that such waiver will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Series or Class to which it is a Rating Agency.

(ii) any information we desire concerning the Certificates or any other matter relevant to our decision to purchase the certificates is or has been made available to us;

(iii) we have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Certificates, and we (and any account for which we are purchasing under paragraph (iv) below) are able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the

(v) we agree that the Certificates must be held indefinitely by us unless subsequently registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from any registration requirements of that Act and any applicable state securities laws available;

(vi) we agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to dispose of or exchange any of the Certificates (such disposition or exchange not being currently foreseen or contemplated), we will not transfer or exchange any of the Certificates unless

(b) the Certificates are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act by us after we have held them for more than three years; or

(c) the Certificates are sold in any other transaction that does not require registration under the 1933 Act and, if the Transferors, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar so requests, we theretofore have furnished to such party an opinion of counsel satisfactory to such party, in form and substance satisfactory to such party, to such effect; or

(d) the Certificates are transferred pursuant to an exception from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act under Rule 144A under the 1933 Act; and

The Principal Terms of any new Series are to be set forth in a Supplement to the Agreement.

Pursuant to this Supplement, the Transferors and the Trustee shall create a new Series of Investor Certificates and specify the Principal Terms thereof.

ARTICLE I

Creation of the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates

Section 1.01. Designation.

(a) There is hereby created a Series of Investor Certificates to be issued pursuant to the Agreement and this Supplement to be known as “American Express Credit Account Master Trust, Series 201[    ]-[    ].” The Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates shall be issued in two Classes, the first of which shall be known as the “Class A Series 201[    ]-[    ] [    %][Floating Rate] Asset Backed Certificates” and the second of which shall be known as the “Class B Series 201[    ]-[    ] [    %][Floating Rate] Asset Backed Certificates.” In addition, there is hereby created a third Class of uncertificated interests in the Trust which shall be known as the “Collateral Interest, Series 201[    ]-[    ]” and which shall be deemed to be “Investor Certificates” for all purposes under the Agreement and this Supplement other than for purposes of the definition of the term “Tax Opinion” in Section 1.01 of the Agreement. The Collateral Interest shall be considered a Class of Series 201[    ]-[    ] for all purposes of the Agreement and this Supplement, including for purposes of voting concerning the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Agreement. The Collateral Interest Holder shall be deemed to be the Series Enhancer for all purposes under the Agreement and this Supplement.

(b) Series 201[    ]-[    ] shall be included in Group [I/II] and shall be a Principal Sharing Series. Series 201[    ]-[    ] shall be an Excess Allocation Series. Series 201[    ]-[    ] shall not be subordinated to any other Series. Notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement or in this Supplement to the contrary, the first Distribution Date with respect to Series 201[    ]-[    ] shall be the [            ] 201[    ] Distribution Date and the first Monthly Period shall begin on and include the Closing Date and end on and include [            ] [    ], 201[    ].

(c) Except as expressly provided herein, (i) the provisions of Article VI and Article XII of the Agreement relating to the registration, authentication, delivery, presentation, cancellation and surrender of Registered Certificates shall not be applicable to the Collateral Interest, and (ii) the provisions of Section 3.07 of the Agreement shall not cause the Collateral Interest to be treated as debt for

(c) The amount of monthly interest (“Collateral Minimum Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to [one-twelfth of the product of (i) the Collateral Minimum Interest Rate and (ii) the Collateral Initial Invested Amount less the aggregate amount of principal payments distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on all prior Distribution Dates][the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360 and (B) the Collateral Minimum Interest Rate in effect with respect to the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) the Collateral Initial Invested Amount less the aggregate amount of principal payments distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on all prior Distribution Dates][; provided, however, that in the event the Collateral Minimum Interest Rate has been modified (as described in the definition thereof) during the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, the rate described in (i)[(B)] above shall reflect a weighted average rate calculated on the basis of the actual number of days each Collateral Minimum Interest Rate was in effect during such period and a year of 360 days].

On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine an amount (the “Collateral Interest Shortfall”) equal to (x) the aggregate Collateral Minimum Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date minus (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Collateral Minimum Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Collateral Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Collateral Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Collateral Additional Interest”) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount equal to [one-twelfth of the product of (i) the Collateral Minimum Interest Rate and (ii) such Collateral Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder)][the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360 and (B) the Collateral Minimum Interest Rate in

19

effect during the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) such Collateral Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been 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.

(d) The amount of monthly interest (“Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest”) distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Collateral Senior Invested Amount on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to [one-twelfth of the product of (i) the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate and (ii) the Collateral Senior Invested Amount; provided that Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest for the first 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 period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360 and (B) the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate in effect with respect to the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) the Collateral Senior Invested Amount][; provided, however, that in the event the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate has been modified (as described in the definition thereof) during the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, the rate described in (i)[(B)] above shall reflect a weighted average rate calculated on the basis of the actual number of days each Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate was in effect during such period and a year of 360 days].

On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine an amount (the “Collateral Senior Interest Shortfall”) equal to (x) the aggregate Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date minus (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Collateral Senior Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Collateral Senior Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount (“Collateral Senior Additional Interest”) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Collateral Senior Invested Amount equal to [one-twelfth of the product of (i) the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate and (ii) such Collateral Senior Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder)][the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360 and (B) the Collateral Senior Minimum Interest Rate in effect during the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) such Collateral Senior Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder)]. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Collateral Senior Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 4.03. Principal Funding Account; Controlled Accumulation Period.

(a) (i) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Series 201[    ]-[    ] 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 and the property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders. The Principal Funding Account shall initially be established with The Bank of New York Mellon.

(ii) At the written 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;

20

provided, however, that if no such written direction is provided, funds on deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall remain uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders; provided that on each Distribution Date all interest and other investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) (“Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds”) on funds on deposit therein shall be applied as set forth in paragraph (iii) below. Subject to the first sentence of this paragraph (a)(ii), 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. 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. No such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 11.01 of the Agreement, the Trustee will not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Principal Funding Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms.

(iii) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit into the Collection Account all Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds then on deposit in the Principal Funding Account and such Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds shall be treated as a portion of Class A Available Funds and Class B Available Funds.

(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 and property from time to time deposited in or credited to 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 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding 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 Principal Funding Account meeting the conditions specified in paragraph (a)(i) above as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Principal Funding Account.

(ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in subsection 3.01(b) of the Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power 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 to withdraw funds from the Principal Funding Account for the purpose of making distributions to the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders.

(c) The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence at the close of business on the last day of the [            ] 201[    ] Monthly Period; provided, however, that if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length (which shall be determined as described below) is less than 12 months, the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences will be delayed to the close of business on the last day of the month preceding the month that is the number of months prior to the

21

Expected Final Payment Date at least equal to the Controlled Accumulation Period Length and, as a result, the number of Monthly Periods in the Controlled Accumulation Period will at least equal the Controlled Accumulation Period Length. On the Determination Date immediately preceding the [            ] 201[    ] Distribution Date, and on each Determination Date thereafter that occurs prior to the Determination Date occurring in the Monthly Period in which the Controlled Accumulation Period commences, the Servicer will determine the “Controlled Accumulation Period Length” which will equal the number of months such that the sum of the Controlled Accumulation Period Factors for each month during such period will be equal to or greater than the Required Accumulation Factor Number; provided, however, that the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall not be less than one month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall have been determined to be less than 12 months and, after the date on which such determination is made, a Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event (as those terms are defined in the Supplement for such Series) shall occur with respect to any outstanding Principal Sharing Series other than Series 201[    ]-[    ], the Controlled Accumulation Period will commence on the earlier of (i) the first day of the Monthly Period immediately succeeding the date that such Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event shall have occurred with respect to such Series and (ii) the date on which the Controlled Accumulation Period is then scheduled to commence.

Section 4.04. 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 (x) 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 (iv) any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not paid to the Class A Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (v) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, the Class A Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, (vi) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, any Class A Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer, and (vii) the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date exceeds (y) the Class A Available Funds. In the event that the difference between (x) the Class A Required Amount for such Distribution Date and (y) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections applied with respect thereto pursuant to subsection 4.07(a) on such Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice to the Transferors and the Trustee of such excess Class A Required Amount on the date of computation.

(b) With respect to each Distribution Date, on the related Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the “Class B Required Amount”), if any, equal to the sum of (x) 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, (iii) Class B Additional Interest, if any, for such Distribution Date, (iv) any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not paid to the Class B Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (v) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, the Class B Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date and (vi) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, any Class B Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer exceeds (B) the Class B Available Funds and (y) the Class B Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date. In the event that the difference between (x) the Class B Required Amount for such Distribution Date and (y) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections applied with respect thereto pursuant to subsection 4.07(d) on such Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice to the Transferors and the Trustee of such excess Class B Required Amount on the date of computation.

(c) With respect to each Distribution Date, on the related Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the “Collateral Senior Required Amount”), if any, by which (x) the sum of (i) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, the Collateral Servicing Fee for such

22

Distribution Date, (ii) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, any Collateral Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer, (iii) Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, (iv) any Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior Distribution Date, (v) Collateral Senior Additional Interest, if any, for such Distribution Date, and (vi) any Collateral Senior Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior Distribution Date exceeds (y) the sum of (A) the amount of Collateral Available Funds to be applied under Section 4.05(c)(i) on such Distribution Date and (B) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections available to be applied pursuant to subsection 4.07(f) on such Distribution Date. In the event that the Collateral Senior Required Amount is greater than zero, the Servicer shall give written notice to the Transferors and the Trustee of such Collateral Senior Required Amount on the date of computation.

Section 4.05. Application of Class A Available Funds, Class B Available Funds, Collateral Available Funds and Available Principal Collections. The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to apply by written instruction to the Trustee substantially in the form of Exhibit B, on each Distribution Date, Class A Available Funds, Class B Available Funds, Collateral Available Funds and Available Principal Collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to such Distribution Date to make the following distributions:

(a) On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to the Class A Available Funds with respect to such Distribution Date will be distributed or deposited in the following priority:

(i) an amount equal to Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to Class A Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class A Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to Class A Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Certificateholders;

(ii) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, an amount equal to the Class A Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the Servicer on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Servicer;

(iii) an amount equal to the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date; and

(iv) the balance, if any, shall constitute Excess Spread and shall be allocated and distributed or deposited as set forth in Section 4.07.

(b) On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to the Class B Available Funds with respect to such Distribution Date will be distributed or deposited in the following priority:

(i) an amount equal to Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to Class B Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to Class B Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B Certificateholders;

23

(ii) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, an amount equal to the Class B Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the Servicer on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Servicer; and

(iii) the balance, if any, shall constitute Excess Spread and shall be allocated and distributed or deposited as set forth in Section 4.07.

(c) On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to the Collateral Available Funds with respect to such Distribution Date will be distributed or deposited in the following priority:

(i) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, an amount equal to the Collateral Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Servicing Fee previously due but not distributed to the Servicer on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Servicer; and

(ii) the balance, if any, shall constitute Excess Spread and shall be allocated and distributed or deposited as set forth in Section 4.07.

(d) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Revolving Period, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account for the related Monthly Period shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied in accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement.

(e) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account for the related Monthly Period shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

(i) an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Controlled Deposit Amount and (y) the sum of the Class A Adjusted Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount shall be deposited in the Principal Funding Account;

(ii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount shall have been paid in full, an amount up to the Collateral Invested Amount shall be distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder; and

(iii) the balance of such Available Principal Collections shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied in accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement.

(f) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to Available Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account for the related Monthly Period shall be distributed or deposited in the following order of priority:

(ii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class A Invested Amount is paid in full, an amount up to the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount on such Distribution Date shall be deposited in the Principal Funding Account for distribution to the Class B Certificateholders;

24

(iii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full, an amount up to the Collateral Invested Amount on such Distribution Date shall be distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder; and

(iv) for each Distribution Date, after giving effect to paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above, an amount equal to the balance, if any, of such Available Principal Collections will be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied in accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement.

Section 4.06. Defaulted Amounts; Investor Charge-Offs.

(a) On each Determination 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 Reallocated Principal Collections allocated to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to such Monthly Period and (y) the amount of Excess Spread and the Excess Finance Charge Collections allocable to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to such Monthly Period, the Collateral Invested Amount, if any, will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more than 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 will 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. 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 (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 Charge Collections allocated and available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.07(b). References to “negative numbers” above shall be determined without regard to the requirement that the Invested Amount of a Class not be reduced below zero.

(b) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Class B Investor Default 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 Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to the related Monthly Period which are allocated and available to pay such amount pursuant to subsection 4.07(d) and (y) the Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to the Collateral Interest and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount with respect to such Distribution Date, then the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such excess. 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 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 (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 Charge Collections allocated and available for

25

that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.07(e). References to “negative numbers” above shall be determined without regard to the requirement that the Invested Amount of a Class not be reduced below zero.

(c) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Collateral Default Amount. If on any Distribution Date the Collateral Default Amount for the previous Monthly Period exceeds the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to the related Monthly Period which are allocated and available to pay such amount pursuant to subsection 4.07(h), the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced by the amount of such excess but not by more than the lesser of the Collateral Default Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount for such Distribution Date (a “Collateral Charge-Off”). The Collateral Invested Amount will be reimbursed after any reduction pursuant to this Section 4.06 on any Distribution Date by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and available on such Distribution date for that purpose as described under subsection 4.07(i).

Section 4.07. Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge Collections. The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to apply by written instruction to the Trustee substantially in the form of Exhibit B, on each Distribution Date, Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to the related Monthly Period, to make the following distributions or deposits in the following order of 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 the Class A Required Amount in accordance with, and in the priority set forth in, subsections 4.05(a)(i), (ii) and (iii);

(b) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Class A Investor Charge-Offs which have not been previously reimbursed shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(c) an amount equal to interest on the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Class B Certificates not otherwise distributed to the Class B Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.05(b)(i), at a rate per annum equal to the Class B Certificate Rate, shall be distributed to the Class B Certificateholders, except that interest previously due but not paid will accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the Class B Certificate Rate plus 2% per annum;

(d) an amount equal to the Class B Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date will be (i) used to fund the Class B Required Amount and be applied in accordance with subsections 4.05(b)(i) and 4.05(b)(ii), and then (ii) an amount up to the Class B Investor Default Amount will be treated and applied as Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(e) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Class B Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the definition of “Class B Invested Amount” in Section 2.01 of this Supplement (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions which have not been previously reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(f) an amount equal to Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Senior Minimum Monthly Interest previously due but not distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Senior Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and any Collateral Senior Additional Interest previously due but not distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder;

26

(g) an amount equal to the Monthly Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date that has not been paid to the Servicer and any Monthly Servicing Fee due but not paid to the Servicer on a prior Distribution Date shall be paid to the Servicer;

(h) an amount equal to the Collateral Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(i) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the definition of “Collateral Invested Amount” (but not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions which have not been previously reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;

(j) on each Distribution Date from and after the Reserve Account Funding Date, but prior to the date on which the Reserve Account terminates pursuant to subsection 4.12(f), an amount up to the excess, if any, of the Required Reserve Account Amount over the Available Reserve Account Amount shall be deposited into the Reserve Account; and

(k) the balance, if any, will be distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder.

Section 4.08. Reallocated Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to apply by written instruction to the Trustee substantially in the form of Exhibit B, Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution Date, to make the following distributions or deposits in the following order of priority

(a) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Class A Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[  ]-[    ] with respect to the related Monthly Period shall be distributed by the Trustee to fund any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in subsections 4.05(a)(i), (ii) and (iii);

(b) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Class B Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and available to the Class B Certificates pursuant to subsections 4.07(c) and (d) on such Distribution Date shall be applied first to fund any deficiency pursuant to subsections 4.05(b)(i) and (ii) and then to fund any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in subsections 4.07(c) and (d); and

(c) an amount equal to the Collateral Senior Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date shall be applied to fund any deficiency pursuant to subsection 4.05(c)(i) and subsection 4.07(f), in that order of priority; provided, however, that Reallocated Principal Collections shall only be applied pursuant to this subsection 4.08(c) to the extent the Collateral Invested Amount shall be no lower than the Collateral Senior Invested Amount after giving effect to the related reduction in the Collateral Invested Amount.

All Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount shall be applied prior to applying any such Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to the Class B Invested Amount. Only Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount shall be applied pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) above.

On each Distribution Date, the Collateral Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections for such Distribution Date; provided, however, that the Collateral Invested Amount shall not be reduced below the Collateral Senior Invested Amount in connection with the application of Reallocated Principal Collections pursuant to subsection 4.08(c). In

27

the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Collateral Charge-Offs for such Distribution Date) to be a negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Collateral Charge-Offs for such Distribution Date) 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. In the event that the reallocation of Reallocated Principal Collections would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class B Investor Charge-Offs for such Distribution Date) to be a negative number on any Distribution Date, Reallocated Principal Collections shall be reallocated on such Distribution Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount which would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class B Investor Charge-Offs for such Distribution Date) to be reduced to zero. References to “negative numbers” above shall be determined without regard to the requirement that the Invested Amount of a Class not be reduced below zero.

(B) the product of (I) Group [I/II] Investor Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Group [I/II] Investor Monthly Interest (up to the Group [I/II] Investor Default Amount) and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Investor Default Amount and the denominator of which is the Group [I/II] Investor Default Amount;

(C) the product of (I) Group [I/II] Investor Finance Charge Collections less the amount of Group [I/II] Investor Monthly Interest and the Group [I/II] Investor Default Amount (up to Group [I/II] Investor Monthly Fees) and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is Series 201[  ]-[    ] Monthly Fees and the denominator of which is Group [I/II] Investor Monthly Fees; and

Section 4.12. 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 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the “Reserve Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein and the property credited thereto are held for the benefit of the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders. The Reserve Account shall initially be established with The Bank of New York Mellon. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds and property from time to time deposited in or credited to 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 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders. 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 shall consent) establish a new Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash 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 in an amount up to the Available Reserve Account Amount at such 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 4.07(j).

(b) Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer by the Trustee in Eligible Investments; provided, however, that if no such written direction is provided, funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall remain uninvested. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Transfer Date, after giving effect to any withdrawals from the Reserve 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 such Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that the Trustee shall sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment if, prior to the maturity of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment; provided further, however, that the Servicer shall deliver prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such default; and provided further that, subject to Section 11.01 of the Agreement, the Trustee will not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in such Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity, in accordance with their terms. 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 Available Reserve Account Amount 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 201[  ]-[    ]. 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 Controlled Accumulation Period 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 Account 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 4.07(j) with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment 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 Available Reserve Account Amount, shall be withdrawn

30

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 written instructions of the Servicer, shall withdraw from the Reserve Account, and distribute to the Collateral Interest Holder, an amount equal to such Reserve Account Surplus.

(f) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the day on which the Invested Amount is paid in full to the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders, (ii) if the Controlled Accumulation Period has not commenced, the occurrence of a Pay-Out Event with respect to Series 201[  ]-[    ], (iii) if the Controlled Accumulation Period has commenced, the earlier of the first Special Payment Date and the Expected Final Payment Date and (iv) the termination of the Trust pursuant to the Agreement, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer, after the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Class 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 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 4.13. Investment Instructions.

(a) Any investment instructions required to be given to the Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Trustee no later than 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the date such investment is to be made. In the event the Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time, the Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction received by the Trustee after 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on such day, such investment shall be made by the Trustee on the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made.

(b) The Trustee shall hold each Eligible Investment that constitutes investment property through a securities intermediary, which securities intermediary shall agree with the Trustee that (i) such investment property at all times shall be credited to a securities account of the Trustee, (ii) all property credited to such securities account shall be treated as a financial asset, (iii) such securities intermediary shall treat the Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each financial asset credited to such securities account, (iv) such securities intermediary shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the further consent of any other person or entity, (v) such securities intermediary shall not agree with any person or entity other than the Trustee to comply with entitlement orders originated by any person or entity other than the Trustee, (vi) such securities account and all property credited thereto shall not be subject to any lien, security interest, right of set-off, or encumbrance in favor of such securities intermediary or anyone claiming through such securities intermediary (other than the Trustee), (vii) such agreement between such securities intermediary and the Trustee shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and (viii) such securities intermediary’s jurisdiction for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code shall be the State of New York. The Trustee shall maintain possession of each other Eligible Investment in the State of New York, separate and apart from all other property held by the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplement, the Trustee shall not hold any Eligible Investment through an agent except as expressly permitted by this Section 4.13(b). Each term used in this Section 4.13(b) and defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code shall have the meaning set forth in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 4.14. [Reserved][Determination of LIBOR].

[(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee will determine LIBOR for the related Interest Accrual Period, which shall be the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual Period) that appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. Upon such determination, the Trustee shall notify the Servicer of LIBOR for such LIBOR Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, the rate for the LIBOR Determination Date will 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 equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual Period). The Servicer will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date 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 equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual Period). If the banks selected by the Servicer are not quoting rates as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period will be LIBOR in effect for the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Period.

(b) The Servicer shall determine, and promptly notify the Transferors and the Trustee of, the Class A Certificate Rate and the Class B Certificate Rate for the applicable Interest Accrual Period. The Class A Certificate Rate and Class B Certificate Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Periods may be obtained by any Investor Certificateholder by telephoning the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at (212) 815-6258.

(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, the Trustee shall send to the Transferors and the Servicer by facsimile, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Accrual Period.]

Optional Repurchase; Series Termination

Section 7.01. Optional Repurchase.

(a) So long as a Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer, on any day occurring on or after the date on which the Invested Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, such Transferor shall have the option to purchase the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders’ Interest, at a purchase price equal to (i) if such day is a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (ii) if such day is not a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the Distribution Date following such day. If, on the date on which a Transferor exercises such option, the long-term unsecured debt obligations of such Transferor purchasing the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders’ Interest is not rated at least in the third highest rating category by the Rating Agency, such Transferor shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Rating Agency, an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor which shall have attached to it the relevant fraudulent conveyance

35

statute, if any, and set forth the factual basis for a conclusion that the exercise of such optional repurchase would not constitute a fraudulent conveyance of such Transferor.

(b) The Transferors shall give the Servicer and the Trustee at least 30 days prior written notice of the date on which the Transferors intend to exercise such purchase option. Not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such day the Transferors shall deposit the Reassignment Amount into the Collection Account in immediately available funds.

Following the deposit of the Reassignment Amount into the Collection Amount in accordance with the foregoing, the Invested Amount for Series 201[  ]-[    ] shall be reduced to zero and the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders shall have no further interest in the Receivables. The Reassignment Amount shall be distributed as set forth in subsection 8.01(b).

Section 7.02. Series Termination.

(a) If, on the [            ] 201[  ] Distribution Date, the Invested 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 Invested Amount at the close of business on the last day of the Monthly Period preceding the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Termination Date (after giving effect to all distributions required to be made on the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Termination Date, except pursuant to this Section 7.02). Such bids shall require that such sale shall (subject to subsection 7.02(b)) occur on the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Termination Date. No Transferor, any Affiliate thereof, any agent thereof or any other party consolidated with such Transferor for purposes of United States generally accepted accounting principles shall be entitled to participate in such bidding process or to purchase the Receivables; provided, however, that, to the extent the Collateral Interest Holder is not a Transferor, an Affiliate thereof, an agent thereof or any other party consolidated with a Transferor for purposes of United States generally accepted accounting principles, the Collateral Interest Holder may participate in such bidding process.

(b) The Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall sell such Receivables (or interests therein) on the Series 201[  ]-[    ] 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 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholders 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 [            ] 201[  ] Distribution Date to the Series 201[  ]-[    ] 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.

Miscellaneous Provisions

Section 9.01. Ratification of Agreement. As supplemented by this Supplement, the Agreement is in all respects ratified and confirmed and the Agreement as so supplemented by this Supplement shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.

Section 9.02. Counterparts. This Supplement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 9.03. Governing Law. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Section 9.04. [Reserved].

Section 9.05. FATCA Matters.

Each Certificate Owner and Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholder, by the purchase of a Certificate or its acceptance of a beneficial interest therein, acknowledges that interest on the Certificates will be treated as United States source interest, and, as such, United States withholding tax may apply. Each such Certificate Owner and Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificateholder further agrees, upon request, to provide any certifications that may be required under applicable law, regulations or procedures to evidence such status and understands that if it ceases to satisfy the foregoing requirements or provide requested documentation, payments to it under the Certificates may be subject to United States withholding tax (without any corresponding gross-up). Without limiting the foregoing, if a payment made under this Supplement would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if the recipient of such payment were to fail to comply with FATCA (including the requirements of Code Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b), as applicable), such recipient shall deliver to the Transferors and the Trustee, at the time or times prescribed by the Code and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Transferors or the Trustee, such documentation prescribed by the Code (including as prescribed by Code Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Transferors or the Trustee to comply with their respective obligations under FATCA, to determine that such recipient has complied with such recipient’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For these purposes, “FATCA” means Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations or official interpretations thereof (including any revenue ruling, revenue procedure, notice or similar guidance issued by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service thereunder as a precondition to relief or exemption from taxes under such Sections, regulations and interpretations), any agreements entered into pursuant to Code Section 1471(b)(1), and including any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Supplement.

Section 9.06. Uncertificated Securities. The Collateral Interest shall be delivered in uncertificated form.

Section 9.07. Transfers of the Collateral Interest.

(a) Unless otherwise consented to by the Transferors, no portion of the Collateral Interest or any interest therein may be sold, conveyed, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, participated, exchanged or otherwise transferred (each, a “Transfer”) except in accordance with this Section 9.07 and only to a Permitted Assignee. Any attempted or purported transfer, assignment, exchange, conveyance,

39

pledge, hypothecation or grant other than to a Permitted Assignee shall be void. Unless otherwise consented to by the Transferors, no portion of the Collateral Interest or any interest therein may be Transferred to any Person (each such Person acquiring the Collateral Interest or any interest therein, an “Assignee”) unless such Assignee shall have executed and delivered to the Transferors on or before the effective date of any Transfer a letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (an “Investment Letter”), executed by such Assignee, with respect to the related Transfer to such Assignee of all or a portion of the Collateral Interest.

(b) Each Assignee will certify that the Collateral Interest or the interest therein purchased by such Assignee will be acquired for investment only and not with a view to any public distribution thereof, and that such Assignee will not offer to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral Interest or any interest therein so acquired by it in violation of any of the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or any applicable state or other securities laws. Each Assignee will acknowledge and agree that (i) it has no right to require the Transferors to register under the Securities Act or any other securities law the Collateral Interest or the interest therein to be acquired by the Assignee and (ii) the sale of the Collateral Interest is not being made by means of the prospectus prepared in connection with the sale of the Series 201[  ]-[    ] Certificates. Each Assignee will agree with the Transferors that: (a) such Assignee will deliver to the Transferors an Investment Letter and (b) all of the statements made by such Assignee in its Investment Letter shall be true and correct as of the date made.

(c) No portion of the Collateral Interest or any interest therein may be Transferred to, and each Assignee will certify that it is not, (a) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA and subject to Title I of ERISA), (b) any “plan” (as defined in and subject to Section 4975 of the Code) including individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans, or (c) any other entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” (within the meaning of U.S. Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101, 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) by reason of a plan’s investment in the entity, including, without limitation, an insurance company general account.

Evidencing an undivided interest in certain assets of a trust, the corpus of which consists primarily of an interest in receivables generated from time to time in the ordinary course of business in a portfolio of credit and charge accounts serviced by

AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVEL RELATED SERVICES COMPANY, INC.,

and other assets and interests constituting Trust Assets under the Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement referred to below.

(Not an interest in or obligation of American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., American Express Centurion Bank, American Express Bank, FSB, American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC, American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC or any of their respective affiliates)

This certifies that CEDE & CO. (the “Class A Certificateholder”) is the registered owner of a fractional undivided interest in certain assets of a trust (the “Trust”) created pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of [            ] [    ], 201[    ] (as amended and restated and

The corpus of the Trust consists of (i) the Transferors’ ownership interest in a portfolio of receivables (the “Receivables”) existing in credit and charge accounts identified under the Agreement from time to time (the “Accounts”), (ii) all Receivables generated under the Accounts from time to time thereafter, (iii) funds collected or to be collected from cardmembers in respect of the Receivables, (iv) all funds which are from time to time on deposit in the Collection Account, the Special Funding Account and any other Series Accounts and (v) all other assets and interests constituting the Trust. The Holder of this Certificate is entitled to the benefits of the subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Collateral Interest to the extent provided in the Supplement. Although a summary of certain provisions of the Agreement and the Supplement is set forth below and in the Summary of Terms and Conditions attached hereto and made a part hereof, this Class A Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and the Supplement and reference is made to the Agreement and the Supplement 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 and the Supplement (without schedules) may be requested from the Trustee by writing to the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement or the Supplement, as applicable.

This Class A Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement and the Supplement, to which Agreement and Supplement, each as amended and supplemented from time to time, the Class A Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and is bound.

It is the intent of the Transferors and the Class A Certificateholder that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Class A Certificates will qualify as indebtedness of the Transferors secured by the Receivables. The Class A Certificateholder, by the acceptance of this Class A Certificate, agrees to treat this Class A Certificate for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as debt of the Transferors.

In general, payments of principal with respect to the Class A Certificates are limited to the Class A Invested Amount, which may be less than the unpaid principal balance of the Class A Certificates. The Expected Final Payment Date is the [            ] 201[    ] Distribution Date, but principal with respect to the Class A Certificates may be paid earlier or later under certain circumstances described in the Agreement and the Supplement. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds to pay the Controlled Deposit Amount, then to the extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Distribution Dates with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of the Class A Certificates will occur later than the Expected Final Payment Date.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, this Class A Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or the Supplement or be valid for any purpose.

AMERICAN EXPRESS CREDIT ACCOUNT MASTER TRUST

SERIES 201[    ]-[    ]

CLASS A [    %][FLOATING RATE] ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE

Summary of Terms and Conditions

The Receivables consist of Principal Receivables which arise generally from the purchase of goods and services and amounts advanced to cardmembers as cash advances and Finance Charge Receivables. This Class A Certificate is one of a Series of Certificates entitled American Express Credit Account Master Trust, Series 201[    ]-[    ] (the “Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates”), and one of a class thereof entitled Class A Series 201[    ]-[    ] [    %][Floating Rate] Asset Backed Certificates (the “Class A Certificates”), each of which represents a fractional, undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The assets of the Trust are allocated in part to the investor certificateholders of all outstanding Series (the “Certificateholders’ Interest”) with the remainder allocated to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates. The aggregate interest represented by the Class A Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables in the Trust shall not exceed an amount equal to the Class A Invested Amount at such time. The Class A Initial Invested Amount is $[            ]. The Class A Invested Amount on any date will be an amount equal to (a) the Class A Initial Invested Amount, minus (b) the aggregate amount of principal payments made to the Class A Certificateholder on or prior to such date, minus (c) the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of Class A Investor Charge-Offs for all prior Distribution Dates over Class A Investor Charge-Offs reimbursed pursuant to subsection 4.07(b) of the Supplement prior to such date.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Transferors may, from time to time, direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series of Investor Certificates, which will represent fractional, undivided interests in certain of the Trust Assets.

On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class A Certificateholder of record on the last day of the preceding calendar month (each a “Record Date”) such Class A Certificateholder’s pro rata share of such amounts (including amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and Principal Funding Account) as are payable to the Class A Certificateholder pursuant to the Agreement and the Supplement. Distributions with respect to this Class A Certificate will be made by the Paying Agent by check mailed to the address of the Class A Certificateholder of record appearing in the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Class A Certificate or the making of any notation thereon (except for the final distribution in respect of this Class A Certificate) except that with respect to Class A Certificates registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee for The Depository Trust Company, distributions will be made in the form of immediately available funds. Final payment of this Class A Certificate will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class A Certificate at the office or agency specified in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Trustee to the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders in accordance with the Agreement and the Supplement.

On any day occurring on or after the day on which the Invested Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, the Transferors have the option to repurchase the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders’ Interest in the Trust. The repurchase price will be equal to (a) if such day is a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (b) if such day is not a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the Distribution Date following such day. Following the deposit of the Reassignment Amount in the Collection Account, Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders will not have any interest in the Receivables and the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates will represent only the right to receive such Reassignment Amount.

A-1-5

This Class A Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferors or the Servicer or any affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. 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 hereinabove and in the Agreement and the Supplement.

The Class A Certificates are issuable only in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of this Class A Certificate shall be 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 or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, duly executed by the Class A Certificateholder or such Class A Certificateholder’s attorney, and duly authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed, 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, Class A Certificates are exchangeable for new Class A Certificates evidencing like aggregate fractional, undivided interests as requested by the Class A Certificateholder surrendering such Class A Certificates. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Servicer or 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.

The Servicer, the Transferors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Transfer Agent and Registrar 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 none of the Servicer, the Transferors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, or 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 THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

By acquiring any interest in this Class B Certificate, each applicable Certificate Owner shall be deemed to have represented and warranted either (i) that it is not a Benefit Plan and is not acting for the account of any Benefit Plan or (ii) that (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold an interest in such Certificate is an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60), and (3) the conditions set forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.

THIS CLASS B CERTIFICATE IS SUBORDINATED TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO FUND PAYMENTS ON THE CLASS A CERTIFICATES TO THE EXTENT SPECIFIED IN THE SUPPLEMENT.

A-2-2

It is the intent of the Transferors and the Class B Certificateholder that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Class B Certificates will qualify as indebtedness of the Transferors secured by the Receivables. The Class B Certificateholder, by the acceptance of this Class B Certificate, agrees to treat this Class B Certificate for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as debt of the Transferors.

In general, payments of principal with respect to the Class B Certificates are limited to the Class B Invested Amount, which may be less than the unpaid principal balance of the Class B Certificates. The Expected Final Payment Date is the [            ] 201[    ] Distribution Date, but principal with respect to the Class B Certificates may be paid earlier or later under certain circumstances described in the Agreement and the Supplement. If for one or more months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds to pay the Controlled Deposit Amount, then to the extent that excess funds are not available on subsequent Distribution Dates with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of principal of the Class B Certificates will occur later than the Expected Final Payment Date.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, this Class B Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or the Supplement or be valid for any purpose.

A-2-3

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Transferors have caused this Class B Certificate to be duly executed.

AMERICAN EXPRESS CREDIT ACCOUNT MASTER TRUST

SERIES 201[    ]-[    ]

CLASS B [    %][FLOATING RATE] ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE

Summary of Terms and Conditions

The Receivables consist of Principal Receivables which arise generally from the purchase of goods and services and amounts advanced to cardmembers as cash advances and Finance Charge Receivables. This Class B Certificate is one of a Series of Certificates entitled American Express Credit Account Master Trust, Series 201[    ]-[    ] (the “Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates”), and one of a class thereof entitled Class B Series 201[    ]-[    ] [    %][Floating Rate] Asset Backed Certificates (the “Class B Certificates”), each of which represents a fractional, undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The assets of the Trust are allocated in part to the investor certificateholders of all outstanding Series (the “Certificateholders’ Interest”) with the remainder allocated to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates. The aggregate interest represented by the Class B Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables in the Trust shall not exceed an amount equal to the Class B Invested Amount at such time. The Class B Initial Invested Amount is $[        ]. The Class B Invested Amount on any date will be an amount equal to (a) the Class B Initial Invested Amount, minus (b) the aggregate amount of principal payments made to the Class B Certificateholder on or prior to such date, minus (c) the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount of Class B Investor Charge-Offs for all prior Distribution Dates over Class B Investor Charge-Offs reimbursed, minus (d) the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections allocated on all prior Distribution Dates pursuant to subsection 4.08(a) of the Supplement (excluding any Reallocated Principal Collections that have resulted in a reduction in the Collateral Invested Amount pursuant to Section 4.08), minus (e) an amount equal to the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount has been reduced to cover the Class A Investor Default Amount on all prior Distribution Dates, and plus (f) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 201[    ]-[    ] and applied on all prior Distribution Dates for the purpose of reimbursing amounts deducted pursuant to the foregoing clauses (c), (d) and (e); provided, however, that the Class B Invested Amount may not be reduced below zero.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Transferors may, from time to time, direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to issue one or more new Series of Investor Certificates, which will represent fractional, undivided interests in certain of the Trust Assets.

On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to each Class B Certificateholder of record on the last day of the preceding calendar month (each a “Record Date”) such Class B Certificateholder’s pro rata share of such amounts (including amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and Principal Funding Account) as are payable to the Class B Certificateholder pursuant to the Agreement and the Supplement. Distributions with respect to this Class B Certificate will be made by the Paying Agent by check mailed to the address of the Class B Certificateholder of record appearing in the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Class B Certificate or the making of any notation thereon (except for the final distribution in respect of this Class B Certificate) except that with respect to Class B Certificates registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee for The Depository Trust Company, distributions will be made in the form of immediately available funds. Final payment of this Class B Certificate will be made only upon presentation and surrender of this Class B Certificate at the office or agency specified in the notice of final distribution delivered by the Trustee to the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders in accordance with the Agreement and the Supplement.

A-2-6

On any day occurring on or after the day on which the Invested Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, the Transferors have the option to repurchase the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders’ Interest in the Trust. The repurchase price will be equal to (a) if such day is a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (b) if such day is not a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the Distribution Date next following such day. Following the deposit of the Reassignment Amount in the Collection Account, Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificateholders will not have any interest in the Receivables and the Series 201[    ]-[    ] Certificates will represent only the right to receive such Reassignment Amount.

This Class B Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Transferors or the Servicer or any affiliate of any of them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. This Class B 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 hereinabove and in the Agreement and the Supplement.

The Class B Certificates are issuable only in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. 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 or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, duly executed by the Class B Certificateholder or such Class B Certificateholder’s attorney, and duly authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed, 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, Class B Certificates are exchangeable for new Class B Certificates evidencing like aggregate fractional undivided interests as requested by the Class B Certificateholder surrendering such Class B Certificates. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the Servicer or 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.

The Servicer, the Transferors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Transfer Agent and Registrar 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 none of the Servicer, the Transferors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, or 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 THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

PURCHASE AND CONVEYANCE OF RECEIVABLES

Section 2.01. Purchase.

(a) In consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price as provided herein, Centurion does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to RFC III (collectively, the “Conveyance”), without recourse except as provided herein, all of its right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables existing at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Initial Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Initial Accounts), and at the close of business on the related Addition Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Additional Accounts), and in each case thereafter created from time to time in such Accounts, all Insurance Proceeds, Issuer Rate Fees and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, all Collections with respect thereto, and all proceeds (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). The Receivables existing in the Initial Accounts at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date and thereafter arising in the Initial Accounts on or prior to the Closing Date, and the related Purchased Assets, shall be sold by Centurion and purchased by RFC III on the Closing Date. Receivables arising after the Closing Date in the Initial Accounts and the related Purchased Assets shall be sold by Centurion and purchased by RFC III on the date such Receivables arise. The Receivables existing in Additional Accounts at the close of business on the related Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter arising in such Additional Accounts on or prior to the related Addition Date, and the related Purchased Assets, shall be sold by Centurion and purchased by RFC III on the related Addition Date. Receivables arising after such Addition Date in such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets shall be sold by Centurion and purchased by RFC III on the date such Receivables arise.

(b) Centurion shall (i) record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and amendments with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Purchased Assets meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the Conveyance of such Purchased Assets from Centurion to RFC III, (ii) cause such financing statements and amendments to name Centurion, as seller, and RFC III, as purchaser, of the Purchased Assets and (iii) deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or amendments or other evidence of such filings to RFC III as soon as is practicable after filing.

(c) Centurion shall, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to (x) the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Accounts, and (y) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, indicate in its books and records (including its computer files) that Receivables created in connection with such Accounts and the related Purchased Assets have been sold to RFC III in accordance with this Agreement and have been conveyed by RFC III to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (ii) on or prior to (x) the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Accounts, and (y) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Additional

11

Accounts, deliver to RFC III an Account Schedule (provided, however, that such Account Schedule shall be provided in respect of New Accounts on the Distribution Date immediately succeeding the related Monthly Period during which their respective Addition Dates occur) containing a true and complete list of all such Accounts. Centurion shall not alter the indication referenced in clause (i) of this paragraph with respect to any Account during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Account is no longer an Account or Centurion has taken such action as is necessary or advisable to cause the interest of RFC III in the Purchased Assets to continue to be perfected and of first priority. The Account Schedules, as supplemented and amended, collectively shall be marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement, shall be incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement and shall be updated by Centurion on each Addition Date (or with respect to New Accounts, on the Distribution Date immediately succeeding the related Monthly Period during which their respective Addition Dates occur), but not later than on a semi-annual basis to include any new Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts.

(d) The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of Centurion’s right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets shall constitute an absolute sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others, from Centurion to RFC III. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Purchased Assets shall constitute a purchase and sale of such Purchased Assets and not a loan, including for accounting purposes. In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that Centurion shall be deemed to have granted, and Centurion does hereby grant, to RFC III a first priority perfected security interest in all of Centurion’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Purchased Assets to secure the obligations of Centurion hereunder.

(e) To the extent that Centurion retains any interest in the Purchased Assets, Centurion hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in all of Centurion’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Purchased Assets, to secure the performance of all of the obligations of Centurion hereunder and under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. With respect to such security interest and such collateral, the Trustee shall have all of the rights that it has under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall also have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

(f) Centurion hereby acknowledges and agrees to perform its obligations under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(g) Each Account will continue to be owned by Centurion and is not a Purchased Asset.

Section 2.02. Addition of Accounts.

(a) If (i) RFC III is required, pursuant to Section 2.09(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to designate additional accounts to the Trust, or (ii) RFC III elects, pursuant to Section 2.09(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to designate additional accounts to the Trust, then in either case RFC III, at its option, may give written notice thereof to

12

Centurion; provided, however, that such notice shall be provided on or before the eighth (8th) Business Day immediately preceding the related addition date. Upon receipt of such notice and on or prior to such addition date, Centurion shall designate sufficient Eligible Accounts as Aggregate Addition Accounts and shall sell to RFC III the Purchased Assets related to such Aggregate Addition Accounts. In addition, at its option and with the consent of RFC III, Centurion may designate Eligible Accounts as Aggregate Addition Accounts and sell to RFC III the Purchased Assets related to such Aggregate Addition Accounts.

(b) At its option and with the consent of RFC III, Centurion may designate Eligible Accounts as New Accounts and sell to RFC III the Purchased Assets related to such New Accounts. Centurion or RFC III, each at its option and by written notice to the other party at least ten (10) days in advance, may elect at any time to terminate the inclusion of new accounts which would otherwise be New Accounts as of any Business Day, to suspend any such inclusion as of any Business Day, or to resume any such inclusion as of any Business Day.

(c) On the Addition Date with respect to any designation of Additional Accounts, such Additional Accounts shall become Accounts, and RFC III shall purchase Centurion’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables in such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets as provided in Section 2.01, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions on such Addition Date:

(i) as of the Addition Selection Date, such Additional Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts;

(ii) Centurion shall have delivered to RFC III copies of UCC financing statements covering such Additional Accounts, if necessary to perfect RFC III’s interest in the Receivables arising therein and the related Purchased Assets;

(iii) Centurion shall have delivered to RFC III all Collections with respect to such Additional Accounts since the Addition Cut-Off Date;

(iv) as of each of the Addition Cut-Off Date and the Addition Date, no Insolvency Event with respect to Centurion shall have occurred nor shall the sale of the Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets to RFC III have been made in contemplation of the occurrence thereof;

(v) in the case of Aggregate Addition Accounts, such addition will not have a material adverse effect on RFC III;

(vi) Centurion shall have delivered to RFC III an Officer’s Certificate of Centurion, dated the Addition Date, confirming, to the extent applicable and in Centurion’s reasonable belief, the items set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above;

(vii) in the case of New Accounts, such addition will not cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(viii) Centurion shall have indicated in its computer files that Receivables created in connection with such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets

13

have been sold to RFC III and, in the case of Aggregate Addition Accounts, shall have delivered to RFC III the Account Schedule with respect to such Aggregate Addition Accounts; and

(ix) Centurion and RFC III shall have entered into a duly executed, written assignment, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Supplemental Conveyance”).

Section 2.03. Removal and Deletion of Accounts.

(a) If an Account becomes a Removed Account, then Centurion shall stop selling to RFC III Principal Receivables arising in such Removed Account effective on the Business Day (the “Stop Date”) after the date such Account becomes a Removed Account. Notwithstanding the cessation of the sale to RFC III of additional Principal Receivables arising in such Removed Account, Principal Receivables sold to RFC III prior to the Stop Date, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables whenever created that accrue in respect of such Principal Receivables, Collections in respect of such Finance Charge Receivables, and Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the foregoing shall continue to be property of RFC III available for transfer by RFC III to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent that it is not clear to Centurion whether collections relate to a Receivable that was sold to RFC III or to a receivable that Centurion did not sell to RFC III, Centurion shall allocate payments on each such Removed Account with respect to the principal balance of such Removed Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Removed Account.

(b) On and after the Stop Date for a Removed Account, Centurion may mark its books and records to indicate that such Account is a Removed Account, but Centurion shall not (i) alter the indication referenced in clause (i) of Subsection 2.01(c) with respect to such Removed Account unless and until such Account becomes a Deleted Account or Centurion has taken such action as is necessary or advisable to cause the interest of RFC III in the Purchased Assets to continue to be perfected and of first priority, or (ii) delete such Removed Account from Schedule 1 hereto or any Account Schedule.

(c) Once a Removed Account becomes a Deleted Account, Centurion shall promptly delete such Deleted Account from Schedule 1 hereto and shall indicate in its computer files that such Deleted Account is no longer an Account.

ARTICLE III

CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT

Section 3.01. Purchase Price.

(a) The “Purchase Price” for the Receivables in the Initial Accounts existing at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date, and the related Purchased Assets, that are conveyed to RFC III under this Agreement shall be payable on April 19, 2004, in an amount equal to the fair market value of such Receivables and the related Purchased Assets as mutually agreed upon by Centurion and RFC III. This computation of initial purchase price shall assume no reinvestment in new Receivables. The Purchase Price for the Receivables (including Receivables in Additional Accounts) and the related Purchased Assets conveyed to RFC III under this Agreement which come into existence after the Initial Cut-Off Date (i) shall be payable on a date (the “Purchase Price Payment Date”) mutually agreed to by Centurion and RFC III, but no later than the 15th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next following Business Day) following the calendar month in which such Receivables and the related Purchased Assets are conveyed by Centurion to RFC III and (ii) shall be an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of the Principal Receivables so conveyed, adjusted to reflect such factors, if any, as Centurion and RFC III mutually agree will result in a Purchase Price determined to be the fair market value of such Principal Receivables and the related Purchased Assets. Centurion hereby acknowledges, and agrees to perform in accordance with, Section 4.03(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the related instructions of RFC III.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Centurion shall not be obligated to continue to sell Receivables or other Purchased Assets to RFC III to the extent that Centurion is not paid the Purchase Price therefor as provided herein.

Section 3.02. Adjustments to Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be reduced on the Purchase Price Payment Date (a “Purchase Price Adjustment”) with respect to any Receivable previously conveyed to RFC III by Centurion which is reduced by Centurion or the Servicer because of a rebate, refund, or billing error to an Obligor, other than by reason of a Servicer error. The amount of such reduction shall equal the reduction in the principal balance of such Receivable resulting from the occurrence of such event. In the event that a reduction pursuant to this Section 3.02 causes the Purchase Price to be a negative number, Centurion agrees that, on the Purchase Price Payment Date, Centurion shall pay or cause to be paid to RFC III an amount equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds the unadjusted Purchase Price; provided, however, that if the reduction relating to such Purchase Price Adjustment also gives rise to an obligation on the part of RFC III as Transferor to make a deposit in the Special Funding Account pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then Centurion and RFC III hereby agree that the date that RFC III is required to make such deposit pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall be a Purchase Price Payment Date.

Section 3.03. Use of Name, Logo and Marks. Centurion does hereby grant to RFC III a non-exclusive license to use the name “American Express Centurion Bank” and all related identifying trade or service marks, signs, symbols, logos, designs, servicing software,

15

customer lists and other intangibles in connection with the servicing of the Receivables purchased hereunder. The license granted shall be co-extensive with the term of the Agreement.

ARTICLE V

COVENANTS

Section 5.01. Covenants of Centurion. Centurion hereby covenants and agrees with RFC III as follows:

(a) Receivables Not To Be Evidenced by Instruments. Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of an Account, Centurion will take no action to cause any Receivable sold to RFC III hereunder to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC), and if any Receivable is so evidenced as a result of any action by Centurion, it shall be deemed to be a Receivable described in Subsection 6.01(a) and shall be reassigned to Centurion in accordance with Subsection 6.01(b).

(b) Security Interests. Except for the conveyances hereunder, Centurion will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or take any other action inconsistent with RFC III’s ownership of, the Purchased Assets, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien arising through or under Centurion on any Purchased Asset or any interest therein (other than any Lien for municipal or other local taxes of Centurion if such taxes are not then due and payable or if Centurion is then contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto), and Centurion shall not claim any ownership interest in any Purchased Asset and shall defend the right, title and interest of RFC III in, to and under the Purchased Assets against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Centurion.

(c) Account Allocations. If a Transfer Restriction Event occurs, Centurion agrees (except as prohibited by any such order or any Requirement of Law) to allocate and pay to RFC III, after the date of such Transfer Restriction Event, all Collections with respect to Principal Receivables previously sold to RFC III. To the extent that it is not clear to Centurion whether collections relate to a Receivable that was sold to RFC III or to a receivable that Centurion is unable to sell to RFC III, Centurion agrees that it shall allocate payments on each Account with respect to the principal balance of such Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Account. Notwithstanding any cessation of the sale to RFC III of additional Principal Receivables, Principal Receivables sold to RFC III prior to the occurrence of the Transfer Restriction Event, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables whenever created that accrue in respect of such Principal Receivables, Collections in respect of such Finance Charge Receivables, and Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the foregoing shall continue to be property of RFC III available for transfer by RFC III to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(d) Delivery of Collections. In the event that Centurion receives Collections or any other amounts in respect of the Purchased Assets sold to RFC III hereunder, Centurion agrees to pay to RFC III (or to the Servicer or the Trustee if RFC III so directs) all such Collections and other amounts promptly after receipt thereof.

21

(e) Notice of Liens. Centurion shall notify RFC III promptly after becoming aware of any Lien arising through or under Centurion on any Purchased Asset other than the conveyances hereunder.

(f) Issuer Rate Fees. On each Distribution Date, Centurion shall pay to RFC III, in immediately available funds, the amount of Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the Receivables. Such amount of Issuer Rate Fees shall be equal to the sum of (i) the product of (A) the rate at which issuer rate fees accrued to Centurion during the second preceding Monthly Period on credit accounts owned by Centurion, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which issuer rate fees did not accrue to Centurion, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by Centurion with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new Principal Receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the Accounts that constitute credit accounts, plus (ii) the product of (A) the rate at which issuer rate fees accrued to Centurion during the second preceding Monthly Period on charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which issuer rate fees did not accrue to Centurion, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by Centurion with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new Principal Receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the Accounts that constitute charge accounts or lines of credit.

(g) Documentation of Transfer. Centurion shall timely file in all appropriate filing offices the documents which are necessary or advisable to perfect and maintain the perfection of the sale of the Purchased Assets to RFC III.

(h) Periodic Rate Finance Charges. Except (i) as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law or (ii) as is deemed by Centurion to be necessary in order for it to maintain its credit or charge business or a program operated by such credit or charge business on a competitive basis based on a good faith assessment by it of the nature of the competition with respect to such credit or charge business or such program, Centurion shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the Periodic Rate Finance Charges assessed on the Receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the Accounts if, as a result of any such action, Centurion’s reasonable expectation is that such action will cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event to occur under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement based on the insufficiency of Portfolio Yield or any similar test. In addition, except as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law, Centurion shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the Periodic Rate Finance Charges assessed on the Receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the Accounts if, as a result of any such action, Centurion’s reasonable

22

expectation is that such action will cause the Portfolio Yield under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be less than the then-current highest Average Rate for any Group.

(i) Account Agreements and Guidelines. Subject to compliance with all Requirements of Law and paragraph (h) above, Centurion may change the terms and provisions of the Account Agreements or the Credit Guidelines applicable to the Accounts in any respect (including the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the Periodic Rate Finance Charges to be assessed thereon). Notwithstanding the above, unless required by Requirements of Law or as permitted by paragraph (h) above, Centurion will not take any action with respect to such Account Agreements or such Credit Guidelines which, at the time of such action, Centurion reasonably believes will have a material adverse effect on RFC III.

(j) Name and Type and Jurisdiction of Organization.

Thereafter this Agreement may be terminated by the mutual agreement of the parties hereto.

Section 8.02. Purchase Termination. If (i) Centurion shall file a petition or commence a Proceeding (A) to take advantage of any bankruptcy, conservatorship, receivership, insolvency, or similar laws or (B) for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver, liquidator, or similar official for or relating to Centurion or all or substantially all of its property, (ii) Centurion shall consent or fail to object to any such petition filed or Proceeding commenced against or with respect to it or all or substantially all of its property, or any such petition or Proceeding shall not have been dismissed within sixty (60) days of its filing or commencement, or a court, agency, or other supervisory authority with jurisdiction shall have decreed or ordered relief with respect to any such petition or Proceeding, (iii) Centurion shall be unable, or shall admit in writing its inability, to pay its debts generally as they become due, (iv) Centurion shall make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (v) Centurion shall voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations (each, an “Insolvency Event”); then Centurion shall immediately cease to sell Principal Receivables to RFC III and shall promptly give notice to RFC III and the Trustee of such Insolvency Event.

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE

(As required by Section 2.02 of

the Receivables Purchase Agreement)

SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE No. [    ], dated as of [                    ], by and between AMERICAN EXPRESS CENTURION BANK, a Utah industrial loan company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “Centurion”), and AMERICAN EXPRESS RECEIVABLES FINANCING CORPORATION III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “RFC III”), pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Centurion and RFC III are parties to an Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of [            ], 2015 (hereinafter as such agreement may have been, or may from time to time be, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, Centurion wishes to designate Aggregate Addition Accounts to be included as Accounts and Centurion wishes to convey its right, title and interest in the Receivables of such Aggregate Addition Accounts, whether existing on the Addition Cut-Off Date or thereafter created, to RFC III pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, RFC III is willing to accept such designation and conveyance subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, Centurion and RFC III hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Receivables Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

“Addition Date” shall mean, with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts, [                    ].

“Addition Cut-Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts, [                    ].

“Additional Purchased Assets” shall have the meaning set forth in Subsection 3(a).

A-1

“Aggregate Addition Accounts” shall mean the Aggregate Addition Accounts, as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, that are designated hereby and listed on Schedule 1 hereto. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

2. Designation of Aggregate Addition Accounts. Centurion delivers herewith an Account Schedule containing a true and complete list of the Aggregate Addition Accounts. Such Account Schedule is incorporated into and made part of this Supplemental Conveyance, shall be Schedule 1 to this Supplemental Conveyance and shall supplement Schedule 1 to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

3. Conveyance of Receivables.

(a) Centurion does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to RFC III, without recourse except as provided in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, all of its right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables arising in the Aggregate Addition Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Aggregate Addition Accounts), existing at the close of business on the Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter created, all Insurance Proceeds, Issuer Rate Fees and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, all Collections with respect thereto, and all proceeds (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the “Additional Purchased Assets”).

(b) In connection with such sale and if necessary, Centurion agrees to record and file, at its own expense, one or more financing statements (and amendments with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Additional Purchased Assets meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the sale of the Additional Purchased Assets to RFC III, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or amendments or other evidence of such filing to RFC III.

(c) In connection with such sale, Centurion further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior to the date of this Supplemental Conveyance, to indicate in the appropriate computer files that all Receivables created in connection with the Aggregate Addition Accounts and the related Additional Purchased Assets have been conveyed to RFC III pursuant to this Supplemental Conveyance.

(d) The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of Centurion’s right, title and interest in and to the Additional Purchased Assets shall constitute an absolute sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others from Centurion to RFC III. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Additional Purchased Assets shall constitute a purchase and sale of such Additional Purchased Assets and not a loan, including for accounting purposes. In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Supplemental Conveyance shall

A-2

constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that Centurion shall be deemed to have granted, and Centurion does hereby grant, to RFC III a first priority perfected security interest in all of Centurion’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Additional Purchased Assets to secure the obligations of Centurion hereunder and under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(e) To the extent that Centurion retains any interest in the Additional Purchased Assets, Centurion hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in all of Centurion’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Additional Purchased Assets, to secure the performance of all of the obligations of Centurion hereunder, under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. With respect to such security interest and such collateral, the Trustee shall have all of the rights that it has under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall also have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

4. Acceptance by RFC III. RFC III hereby acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Conveyance, Centurion delivered to RFC III the Account Schedule described in Section 2 of this Supplemental Conveyance with respect to all Additional Accounts. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

5. Representations and Warranties of Centurion. Centurion hereby acknowledges on the Addition Date that it makes the representations and warranties in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts.

6. Ratification of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby ratified, and all references to the “Receivables Purchase Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed from and after the Addition Date to be a reference to the Receivables Purchase Agreement as supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Conveyance. Except as expressly amended hereby, all the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the Receivables Purchase 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 consent to non-compliance with any term or provision of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

7. Counterparts. This Supplemental Conveyance may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Section 2.01. Purchase.

(a) In consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price as provided herein, FSB does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to RFC IV (collectively, the “Conveyance”), without recourse except as provided herein, all of its right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables existing at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Initial Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Initial Accounts), and at the close of business on the related Addition Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Additional Accounts), and in each case thereafter created from time to time in such Accounts, all Insurance Proceeds, Issuer Rate Fees and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, all Collections with respect thereto, and all proceeds (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). The Receivables existing in the Initial Accounts at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date and thereafter arising in the Initial Accounts on or prior to the Closing Date, and the related Purchased Assets, shall be sold by FSB and purchased by RFC IV on the Closing Date. Receivables arising after the Closing Date in the Initial Accounts and the related Purchased Assets shall be sold by FSB and purchased by RFC IV on the date such Receivables arise. The Receivables existing in Additional Accounts at the close of business on the related Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter arising in such Additional Accounts on or prior to the related Addition Date, and the related Purchased Assets, shall be sold by FSB and purchased by RFC IV on the related Addition Date. Receivables arising after such Addition Date in such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets shall be sold by FSB and purchased by RFC IV on the date such Receivables arise.

(b) FSB shall (i) record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and amendments with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Purchased Assets meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the Conveyance of such Purchased Assets from FSB to RFC IV, (ii) cause such financing statements and amendments to name FSB, as seller, and RFC IV, as purchaser, of the Purchased Assets and (iii) deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or amendments or other evidence of such filings to RFC IV as soon as is practicable after filing.

(c) FSB shall, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to (x) the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Accounts, and (y) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, indicate in its books and records (including its computer files) that Receivables created in connection with such Accounts and the related Purchased Assets have been sold to RFC IV in accordance with this Agreement and have been conveyed by RFC IV to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (ii) on or prior to (x) the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Accounts, and (y) the applicable Addition Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, deliver to RFC IV an Account Schedule (provided, however, that such Account

11

Schedule shall be provided in respect of New Accounts on the Distribution Date immediately succeeding the related Monthly Period during which their respective Addition Dates occur) containing a true and complete list of all such Accounts. FSB shall not alter the indication referenced in clause (i) of this paragraph with respect to any Account during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Account is no longer an Account or FSB has taken such action as is necessary or advisable to cause the interest of RFC IV in the Purchased Assets to continue to be perfected and of first priority. The Account Schedules, as supplemented and amended, collectively shall be marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement, shall be incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement and shall be updated by FSB on each Addition Date (or with respect to New Accounts, on the Distribution Date immediately succeeding the related Monthly Period during which their respective Addition Dates occur), but not later than on a semi-annual basis to include any new Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts.

(d) The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of FSB’s right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets shall constitute an absolute sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others, from FSB to RFC IV. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Purchased Assets shall constitute a purchase and sale of such Purchased Assets and not a loan, including for accounting purposes. In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that FSB shall be deemed to have granted, and FSB does hereby grant, to RFC IV a first priority perfected security interest in all of FSB’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Purchased Assets to secure the obligations of FSB hereunder.

(e) To the extent that FSB retains any interest in the Purchased Assets, FSB hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in all of FSB’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Purchased Assets, to secure the performance of all of the obligations of FSB hereunder. With respect to such security interest and such collateral, the Trustee shall have all of the rights that it has under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall also have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

(f) Each Account will continue to be owned by FSB and is not a Purchased Asset.

Section 2.02. Addition of Accounts.

(a) If (i) RFC IV is required, pursuant to Section 2.09(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to designate additional accounts to the Trust, or (ii) RFC IV elects, pursuant to Section 2.09(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to designate additional accounts to the Trust, then in either case RFC IV, at its option, may give written notice thereof to FSB; provided, however, that such notice shall be provided on or before the eighth (8th) Business Day immediately preceding the related addition date. Upon receipt of such notice and on or prior to such addition date, FSB shall designate sufficient Eligible Accounts as Aggregate Addition Accounts and shall sell to RFC IV the Purchased Assets related to such Aggregate Addition Accounts. In addition, at its option and with the consent of RFC IV, FSB may designate

12

Eligible Accounts as Aggregate Addition Accounts and sell to RFC IV the Purchased Assets related to such Aggregate Addition Accounts.

(b) At its option and with the consent of RFC IV, FSB may designate Eligible Accounts as New Accounts and sell to RFC IV the Purchased Assets related to such New Accounts. FSB or RFC IV, each at its option and by written notice to the other party at least ten (10) days in advance, may elect at any time to terminate the inclusion of new accounts which would otherwise be New Accounts as of any Business Day, to suspend any such inclusion as of any Business Day, or to resume any such inclusion as of any Business Day.

(c) On the Addition Date with respect to any designation of Additional Accounts, such Additional Accounts shall become Accounts, and RFC IV shall purchase FSB’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables in such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets as provided in Section 2.01, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions on such Addition Date:

(i) as of the Addition Selection Date, such Additional Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts;

(ii) FSB shall have delivered to RFC IV copies of UCC financing statements covering such Additional Accounts, if necessary to perfect RFC IV’s interest in the Receivables arising therein and the related Purchased Assets;

(iii) FSB shall have delivered to RFC IV all Collections with respect to such Additional Accounts since the Addition Cut-Off Date;

(iv) as of each of the Addition Cut-Off Date and the Addition Date, no Insolvency Event with respect to FSB shall have occurred nor shall the sale of the Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets to RFC IV have been made in contemplation of the occurrence thereof;

(v) in the case of Aggregate Addition Accounts, such addition will not have a material adverse effect on RFC IV;

(vi) FSB shall have delivered to RFC IV an Officer’s Certificate of FSB, dated the Addition Date, confirming, to the extent applicable and in FSB’s reasonable belief, the items set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above;

(vii) in the case of New Accounts, such addition will not cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(viii) FSB shall have indicated in its computer files that Receivables created in connection with such Additional Accounts and the related Purchased Assets have been sold to RFC IV and, in the case of Aggregate Addition Accounts, shall have delivered to RFC IV the Account Schedule with respect to such Aggregate Addition Accounts; and

(ix) FSB and RFC IV shall have entered into a duly executed, written assignment, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Supplemental Conveyance”).

13

Section 2.03. Removal and Deletion of Accounts.

(a) If an Account becomes a Removed Account, then FSB shall stop selling to RFC IV Principal Receivables arising in such Removed Account effective on the Business Day (the “Stop Date”) after the date such Account becomes a Removed Account. Notwithstanding the cessation of the sale to RFC IV of additional Principal Receivables arising in such Removed Account, Principal Receivables sold to RFC IV prior to the Stop Date, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables whenever created that accrue in respect of such Principal Receivables, Collections in respect of such Finance Charge Receivables, and Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the foregoing shall continue to be property of RFC IV available for transfer by RFC IV to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent that it is not clear to FSB whether collections relate to a Receivable that was sold to RFC IV or to a receivable that FSB did not sell to RFC IV, FSB shall allocate payments on each such Removed Account with respect to the principal balance of such Removed Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Removed Account.

(b) On and after the Stop Date for a Removed Account, FSB may mark its books and records to indicate that such Account is a Removed Account, but FSB shall not (i) alter the indication referenced in clause (i) of Subsection 2.01(c) with respect to such Removed Account unless and until such Account becomes a Deleted Account or FSB has taken such action as is necessary or advisable to cause the interest of RFC IV in the Purchased Assets to continue to be perfected and of first priority, or (ii) delete such Removed Account from Schedule 1 hereto or any Account Schedule.

(c) Once a Removed Account becomes a Deleted Account, FSB shall promptly delete such Deleted Account from Schedule 1 hereto and shall indicate in its computer files that such Deleted Account is no longer an Account.

CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT

Section 3.01. Purchase Price.

(a) The “Purchase Price” for the Receivables in the Initial Accounts existing at the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date, and the related Purchased Assets, that are conveyed to RFC IV under this Agreement shall be payable on April 19, 2004, in an amount equal to the fair market value of such Receivables and the related Purchased Assets as mutually agreed upon by FSB and RFC IV. This computation of initial purchase price shall assume no reinvestment in new Receivables. The Purchase Price for the Receivables (including Receivables in Additional Accounts) and the related Purchased Assets conveyed to RFC IV under this Agreement which come into existence after the Initial Cut-Off Date (i) shall be payable on a date (the “Purchase Price Payment Date”) mutually agreed to by FSB and RFC IV, but no later than the 15th calendar day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next following Business Day) following the calendar month in which such Receivables and the related Purchased Assets are conveyed by FSB to RFC IV and (ii) shall be an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of the Principal Receivables so conveyed, adjusted to reflect such factors, if any, as FSB and RFC IV mutually agree will result in a Purchase Price determined to be the fair market value of such Principal Receivables and the related Purchased Assets. FSB hereby acknowledges, and agrees to perform in accordance with, Section 4.03(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the related instructions of RFC IV.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, FSB shall not be obligated to continue to sell Receivables or other Purchased Assets to RFC IV to the extent that FSB is not paid the Purchase Price therefor as provided herein.

Section 3.02. Adjustments to Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be reduced on the Purchase Price Payment Date (a “Purchase Price Adjustment”) with respect to any Receivable previously conveyed to RFC IV by FSB which is reduced by FSB or the Servicer because of a rebate, refund, or billing error to an Obligor, other than by reason of a Servicer error. The amount of such reduction shall equal the reduction in the principal balance of such Receivable resulting from the occurrence of such event. In the event that a reduction pursuant to this Section 3.02 causes the Purchase Price to be a negative number, FSB agrees that, on the Purchase Price Payment Date, FSB shall pay or cause to be paid to RFC IV an amount equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price Adjustment exceeds the unadjusted Purchase Price; provided, however, that if the reduction relating to such Purchase Price Adjustment also gives rise to an obligation on the part of RFC IV as Transferor to make a deposit in the Special Funding Account pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then FSB and RFC IV hereby agree that the date that RFC IV is required to make such deposit pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall be a Purchase Price Payment Date.

Section 3.03. Use of Name, Logo and Marks. FSB does hereby grant to RFC IV a non-exclusive license to use the name “American Express Bank, FSB” and all related identifying trade or service marks, signs, symbols, logos, designs, servicing software, customer

15

lists and other intangibles in connection with the servicing of the Receivables purchased hereunder. The license granted shall be co-extensive with the term of the Agreement.

ARTICLE V

COVENANTS

Section 5.01. Covenants of FSB. FSB hereby covenants and agrees with RFC IV as follows:

(a) Receivables Not To Be Evidenced by Instruments. Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of an Account, FSB will take no action to cause any Receivable sold to RFC IV hereunder to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC), and if any Receivable is so evidenced as a result of any action by FSB, it shall be deemed to be a Receivable described in Subsection 6.01(a) and shall be reassigned to FSB in accordance with Subsection 6.01(b).

(b) Security Interests. Except for the conveyances hereunder, FSB will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or take any other action inconsistent with RFC IV’s ownership of, the Purchased Assets, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien arising through or under FSB on any Purchased Asset or any interest therein (other than any Lien for municipal or other local taxes of FSB if such taxes are not then due and payable or if FSB is then contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto), and FSB shall not claim any ownership interest in any Purchased Asset and shall defend the right, title and interest of RFC IV in, to and under the Purchased Assets against all claims of third parties claiming through or under FSB.

(c) Account Allocations. If a Transfer Restriction Event occurs, FSB agrees (except as prohibited by any such order or any Requirement of Law) to allocate and pay to RFC IV, after the date of such Transfer Restriction Event, all Collections with respect to Principal Receivables previously sold to RFC IV. To the extent that it is not clear to FSB whether collections relate to a Receivable that was sold to RFC IV or to a receivable that FSB is unable to sell to RFC IV, FSB agrees that it shall allocate payments on each Account with respect to the principal balance of such Account first to the oldest principal balance of such Account. Notwithstanding any cessation of the sale to RFC IV of additional Principal Receivables, Principal Receivables sold to RFC IV prior to the occurrence of the Transfer Restriction Event, Collections in respect of such Principal Receivables, Finance Charge Receivables whenever created that accrue in respect of such Principal Receivables, Collections in respect of such Finance Charge Receivables, and Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the foregoing shall continue to be property of RFC IV available for transfer by RFC IV to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(d) Delivery of Collections. In the event that FSB receives Collections or any other amounts in respect of the Purchased Assets sold to RFC IV hereunder, FSB agrees to pay to RFC IV (or to the Servicer or the Trustee if RFC IV so directs) all such Collections and other amounts promptly after receipt thereof.

(e) Notice of Liens. FSB shall notify RFC IV promptly after becoming aware of any Lien arising through or under FSB on any Purchased Asset other than the conveyances hereunder.

21

(f) Issuer Rate Fees. On each Distribution Date, FSB shall pay to RFC IV, in immediately available funds, the amount of Issuer Rate Fees allocable to the Receivables. Such amount of Issuer Rate Fees shall be equal to the sum of (i) the product of (A) the rate at which issuer rate fees accrued to FSB during the second preceding Monthly Period on credit accounts owned by FSB, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by FSB, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which issuer rate fees did not accrue to FSB, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of cardholder charges in all credit accounts owned by FSB with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new Principal Receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the Accounts that constitute credit accounts, plus (ii) the product of (A) the rate at which issuer rate fees accrued to FSB during the second preceding Monthly Period on charge accounts or lines of credit owned by FSB, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by FSB, excluding balance transfer transactions, purchases made by convenience checks, cash advances, certain ineligible products and services offered by American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, and all other transactions on which issuer rate fees did not accrue to FSB, in each case with respect to such Monthly Period, and (II) the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of obligor charges on all charge accounts or lines of credit owned by FSB with respect to such Monthly Period, multiplied by (C) new Principal Receivables that arose during such Monthly Period in the Accounts that constitute charge accounts or lines of credit.

(g) Documentation of Transfer. FSB shall timely file in all appropriate filing offices the documents which are necessary or advisable to perfect and maintain the perfection of the sale of the Purchased Assets to RFC IV.

(h) Periodic Rate Finance Charges. Except (i) as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law or (ii) as is deemed by FSB to be necessary in order for it to maintain its credit or charge business or a program operated by such credit or charge business on a competitive basis based on a good faith assessment by it of the nature of the competition with respect to such credit or charge business or such program, FSB shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the Periodic Rate Finance Charges assessed on the Receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the Accounts if, as a result of any such action, FSB’s reasonable expectation is that such action will cause a Pay-Out Event or a Reinvestment Event to occur under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement based on the insufficiency of Portfolio Yield or any similar test. In addition, except as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law, FSB shall not at any time reduce the annual percentage rate of the Periodic Rate Finance Charges assessed on the Receivables or take any other action with respect to any of the Accounts if, as a result of any such action, FSB’s reasonable expectation is that such action will cause the Portfolio Yield under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be less than the then-current highest Average Rate for any Group.

(i) Account Agreements and Guidelines. Subject to compliance with all Requirements of Law and paragraph (h) above, FSB may change the terms and provisions of the

22

Account Agreements or the Credit Guidelines applicable to the Accounts in any respect (including the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the Periodic Rate Finance Charges to be assessed thereon). Notwithstanding the above, unless required by Requirements of Law or as permitted by paragraph (h) above, FSB will not take any action with respect to such Account Agreements or such Credit Guidelines which, at the time of such action, FSB reasonably believes will have a material adverse effect on RFC IV.

(j) Name and Type and Jurisdiction of Organization. FSB shall not change its name or its type or jurisdiction of organization without previously having delivered to RFC IV an opinion of counsel to the effect that all actions have been taken, and all filings have been made, as are necessary to continue and maintain the first-priority perfected ownership interest of RFC IV in the Purchased Assets.

(k) Annual Opinion. On or before March 31st of each calendar year, commencing March 31, 2016, FSB shall deliver to RFC IV, with a copy to the Trustee, an opinion of counsel to the effect that (i) no further action with respect to the recording or filing of any financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, or any other documents or filings is then necessary to perfect the ownership interest of RFC IV in the Purchased Assets, and (ii) no further action with respect to the recording or filing of any financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, or any other documents or filings will be necessary prior to March 31st of the next calendar year to perfect the ownership interest of RFC IV in the Purchased Assets or stating what such filings will be necessary prior to such March 31st.

(l) Asset Representations Review. FSB shall (i) cooperate with the Asset Representations Reviewer in creating and, from time to time, reviewing procedures for an Asset Representations Review, and (ii) cooperate with the Servicer to provide the Asset Representations Reviewer with reasonable access to information upon the initiation of an Asset Representations Review pursuant to Section 4.08(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Following the completion of an Asset Representations Review and the delivery of the related report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, RFC IV will provide a copy of such report to FSB, and FSB shall determine whether any noncompliance with the Covered Representations constitutes a breach of any of such Covered Representations.

(m) Asset Representations Reviewer Fees and Expenses. At the direction of RFC IV, FSB shall pay, or shall reimburse RFC IV for the payment of, the fees and expenses payable to the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to the Asset Representations Review Agreement.

(n) Resolution of Repurchase Disputes. FSB shall cooperate with the Requesting Party in connection with any dispute resolution proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 4.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and shall comply with any obligations of the “Representing Party” applicable to it thereunder. RFC IV hereby agrees to provide FSB with the opportunity to exercise any rights of RFC IV pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any dispute resolution proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 4.09 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent the related dispute relates to the representations and warranties of FSB contained in Section 4.02.

FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE

(As required by Section 2.02 of

the Receivables Purchase Agreement)

SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE No. [        ], dated as of [                    ], by and between AMERICAN EXPRESS BANK, FSB, a federally-chartered savings bank (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “FSB”), and AMERICAN EXPRESS RECEIVABLES FINANCING CORPORATION IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its permitted successors and assigns, “RFC IV”), pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, FSB and RFC IV are parties to an Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of [            ], 2015 (hereinafter as such agreement may have been, or may from time to time be, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, FSB wishes to designate Aggregate Addition Accounts to be included as Accounts and FSB wishes to convey its right, title and interest in the Receivables of such Aggregate Addition Accounts, whether existing on the Addition Cut-Off Date or thereafter created, to RFC IV pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, RFC IV is willing to accept such designation and conveyance subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, FSB and RFC IV hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Receivables Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

“Addition Date” shall mean, with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts, [                    ].

“Addition Cut-Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts, [                    ].

“Additional Purchased Assets” shall have the meaning set forth in Subsection 3(a).

A-1

“Aggregate Addition Accounts” shall mean the Aggregate Addition Accounts, as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, that are designated hereby and listed on Schedule 1 hereto. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

2. Designation of Aggregate Addition Accounts. FSB delivers herewith an Account Schedule containing a true and complete list of the Aggregate Addition Accounts. Such Account Schedule is incorporated into and made part of this Supplemental Conveyance, shall be Schedule 1 to this Supplemental Conveyance and shall supplement Schedule 1 to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

3. Conveyance of Receivables.

(a) FSB does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to RFC IV, without recourse except as provided in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, all of its right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables arising in the Aggregate Addition Accounts (including Related Accounts and Transferred Accounts with respect to such Aggregate Addition Accounts), existing at the close of business on the Addition Cut-Off Date and thereafter created, all Insurance Proceeds, Issuer Rate Fees and Recoveries allocable to such Receivables, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, all Collections with respect thereto, and all proceeds (including “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof (collectively, the “Additional Purchased Assets”).

(b) In connection with such sale and if necessary, FSB agrees to record and file, at its own expense, one or more financing statements (and amendments with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Additional Purchased Assets meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the sale of the Additional Purchased Assets to RFC IV, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or amendments or other evidence of such filing to RFC IV.

(c) In connection with such sale, FSB further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior to the date of this Supplemental Conveyance, to indicate in the appropriate computer files that all Receivables created in connection with the Aggregate Addition Accounts and the related Additional Purchased Assets have been conveyed to RFC IV pursuant to this Supplemental Conveyance.

(d) The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of FSB’s right, title and interest in and to the Additional Purchased Assets shall constitute an absolute sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others from FSB to RFC IV. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Additional Purchased Assets shall constitute a purchase and sale of such Additional Purchased Assets and not a loan, including for accounting purposes. In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Supplemental Conveyance shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that FSB shall be deemed to have granted, and FSB does hereby grant, to RFC

A-2

IV a first priority perfected security interest in all of FSB’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Additional Purchased Assets to secure the obligations of FSB hereunder and under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(e) To the extent that FSB retains any interest in the Additional Purchased Assets, FSB hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in all of FSB’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Additional Purchased Assets, to secure the performance of all of the obligations of FSB hereunder and under the Receivables Purchase Agreement. With respect to such security interest and such collateral, the Trustee shall have all of the rights that it has under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall also have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

4. Acceptance by RFC IV. RFC IV hereby acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Conveyance, FSB delivered to RFC IV the Account Schedule described in Section 2 of this Supplemental Conveyance with respect to all Additional Accounts. [To be modified for New Accounts.]

5. Representations and Warranties of FSB. FSB hereby acknowledges on the Addition Date that it makes the representations and warranties in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement with respect to the Aggregate Addition Accounts.

6. Ratification of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby ratified, and all references to the “Receivables Purchase Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed from and after the Addition Date to be a reference to the Receivables Purchase Agreement as supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Conveyance. Except as expressly amended hereby, all the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the Receivables Purchase 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 consent to non-compliance with any term or provision of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

7. Counterparts. This Supplemental Conveyance may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Re: American Express Credit Account Master Trust, Registration Statement on Form SF-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Transferors”), in connection with the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form SF-3 being filed concurrently herewith with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the proposed issuance and sale from time to time of Asset Backed Certificates (the “Certificates”) of the American Express Credit Account Master Trust to which the Transferors will transfer receivables (the “Receivables”) generated from time to time in a portfolio of designated credit accounts. The American Express Credit Account Master Trust was formed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 16, 1996, as amended and restated as of January 1, 2006 (as so amended and restated and as otherwise amended from time to time, the “Original Pooling Agreement”) among the Transferors, American Express Receivables Financing Corporation II, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., as Servicer (the “Servicer”) and The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly The Bank of New York), as trustee (the “Trustee”). A form of the Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pooling Agreement”), which will amend and restate the Original Pooling Agreement, will be filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registration Statement, and will be supplemented by the Series Supplement related to the Certificates, a form of which will be filed as Exhibit 4.2 to the Registration Statement. The Certificates will be issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of a specified Series Supplement to the Pooling Agreement.

We have examined such instruments, documents and records as we have deemed relevant and necessary for the purposes of our opinion expressed below. In such examination, we have assumed the authenticity of original documents and the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties contained in the records, documents, instruments and certificates we have reviewed.

Based on such examination, and upon consideration of applicable law, we are of the opinion that, assuming the due execution and delivery of the Pooling Agreement and applicable Series Supplement thereto substantially in the forms filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement, upon the issuance, authentication, execution and delivery of the Certificates in accordance with the provisions of such Pooling Agreement and such Supplement, against payment therefor, and upon the sale of the Certificates in the manner described in the Registration Statement, any amendment thereto and the prospectus relating thereto, the Certificates will be legally issued, and the holders of the Certificates will have no obligation to make payments to the Transferors or their creditors (other than the purchase price for the Certificates) or contributions to the Transferors or their creditors solely by reason of the holders’ ownership of the Certificates.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to us under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not admit that we are “experts,” within the meaning of the term used in the Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued thereunder, with respect to any part of the Registration Statement, including this opinion as an exhibit or otherwise.

Very truly yours,

Re: American Express Credit Account Master Trust,

Registration Statement on Form SF-3                                

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel for American Express Receivables Financing Corporation III LLC (“RFC III”) and American Express Receivables Financing Corporation IV LLC (“RFC IV”) in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form SF-3 (the “Registration Statement”), which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), for the registration under the Act of Asset Backed Certificates (the “Certificates”) representing an undivided interest in the American Express Credit Account Master Trust (the “Trust”). The Certificates are to be issued pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement and Series Supplement thereto, substantially in the form of Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to the Registration Statement.

We hereby confirm that the statements set forth in the prospectus relating to the Certificates (the “Prospectus”) forming a part of the Registration Statement under the headings “Summary of Series Terms–Tax Status” and “Tax Matters,” to the extent that they constitute matters of law or legal conclusions with respect thereto, are correct in all material respects and we hereby confirm the opinions set forth under such headings. There can be no assurance, however, that contrary positions will not be taken by the Internal Revenue Service or that the law will not change.

This opinion letter is based on the facts and circumstances set forth in the Prospectus and in the other documents reviewed by us. As the Registration Statement contemplates Series and Classes of Certificates with numerous different characteristics, the particular characteristics of each Series or Class of Certificates must be considered in determining the applicability of this opinion to a particular Series of Class of Certificates.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP under the captions “Summary of Series Terms–Tax Status,” “Legal Matters” and “Tax Matters” in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not admit that we are “experts,” within the meaning of the term used in the Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued thereunder, with respect to any part of the Registration Statement, including this opinion as an exhibit or otherwise.

Very truly yours,

ARTICLE III.

DUTIES OF THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 3.01 Review Scope.

The review conducted by the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to this Agreement is designed to determine whether certain Accounts and Receivables were not in compliance with the Covered Representations made with respect thereto by the Representation Parties in the

4

Transaction Documents.

The Review is not designed to determine any of the following:

(a) Reason for delinquency;

(b) Creditworthiness of the obligor, either at the time of the Review or as of the Account or Receivable creation date;

(c) Overall quality of any Review Account or Review Receivable;

(d) Whether the applicable Servicer has serviced any Account and/or Receivable in compliance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(e) Whether noncompliance with the representations or warranties constitutes a breach of the provisions of any of the Transaction Documents;

(f) Whether the Accounts or Receivables were in compliance with the representations and warranties set forth in the Transaction Documents, except as expressly described in this Agreement; or

(g) To establish cause, materiality or recourse in the case of any failed Test as described in Section 3.05.

The Parties acknowledge that certain representations and warranties made by the Representation Parties in the Transaction Documents contain materiality thresholds, for example, where a breach of the representation or warranty is conditioned upon the failure to comply having an Adverse Effect. The Asset Representations Reviewer will not make any determination as to materiality, including any determination as to whether any deviation from or noncompliance with the requirements of a particular representation or warranty has or may have an Adverse Effect. Any such determination will be made by the applicable Representation Party.

Section 3.02 Review Notices.

Upon receipt of a Review Notice from the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will commence a Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be obligated to commence a Review until a Review Notice is received. Once the Review Notice is issued, the Servicer will provide the Asset Representations Reviewer access to a list of Review Accounts within [30] days or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible in the event of a Force Majeure Event.

The Asset Representations Reviewer is not obligated to verify (i) whether a Review Notice was required to be delivered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or (ii) the accuracy or completeness of the list of Review Accounts provided by the Servicer.

Section 3.03 Review Materials.

Within [60] days of the delivery of a Review Notice, or as soon thereafter as reasonably

5

possible in the event of a Force Majeure Event, the Servicer will provide the Asset Representations Reviewer with access to the Review Materials for all Review Accounts and the Review Receivables; provided, however, that if the Servicer requires additional time to provide one or more documents constituting Review Materials, the Servicer will provide the documentation that it has available within such [60]-day period and will continue to gather the balance of the Review Materials.

All Review Materials will be provided for onsite review at the Servicer’s offices in New York City at the address specified in Section 9.02. The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to keep all materials reviewed confidential and will not copy or remove any documentation from the Servicer’s premises without prior written approval. The Servicer may redact or remove Personally Identifiable Information from the Review Materials in a manner that does not change the meaning or usefulness of the Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to rely in good faith, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects, and not misleading in any material respect.

Section 3.04 Missing or Incomplete Review Materials.

Upon receipt of access to the Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will complete an initial document inventory to verify there are no systemic documentation errors, including but not limited to consistently missing or incomplete Review Materials. The purpose of this review is to determine if there are systemic issues with documentation.

If the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that any Review Materials are not accessible, clearly unidentifiable, and/or illegible, the Asset Representations Reviewer will request in writing that the Servicer provide an updated or replacement copy of such Review Materials. The Servicer will use all reasonable efforts to provide, or cause to be provided, missing or incomplete Review Materials to the Asset Representations Reviewer or other documents or information to correct the issue of incompleteness or missing information as promptly as practicable and within [30] days of the receipt of such a request by the Asset Representations Reviewer; provided that the Servicer shall have an additional [30] days to correct any such issues if it notifies the Asset Representations Reviewer in writing that it is working diligently and it believes that satisfactory materials will be available for review by the Asset Representations Reviewer within an additional [30] days.

In the event any missing or incomplete Review Materials are not provided or corrected within this timeframe, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform the associated Tests in consideration that such Review Materials are missing or incomplete. With respect to any such missing or incomplete Review Materials, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines in good faith, with prior written notice to the Servicer and the Transferors, that it cannot complete a Test due to such missing information or the incompleteness of such information, the Asset Representations Reviewer will record the result of such Test as incomplete (a “Test Incomplete”).

Section 3.05 The Asset Representations Review.

Once the Asset Representations Reviewer has confirmed the [majority of the] Review Materials are available, the Asset Representations Reviewer will commence the Review. For a Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform the applicable procedures listed under “Tests” in Exhibit A for each Covered Representation using the Review Materials identified in Exhibit A for each Test. The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Tests for each Covered Representation only using the Review Materials made available to it. For each Test, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”), if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”) or if the result of the Test should be recorded as “Test Incomplete” in accordance with Section 3.04.

If a Test with respect to a Review Account or Review Receivable was conducted in connection with a prior Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not repeat the Test on such Review Account or Review Receivable to the extent such Test would be duplicative of the Test conducted in connection with such prior Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will include the previously reported Test results for any such duplicate Test within the Review Report for the current Review.

Following the delivery of the list of Review Accounts pursuant to Section 3.02, and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a Review Receivable is paid in full by the Obligor or reassigned to a Transferor in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of such Review Receivable and related Review Account, and the review of such Review Receivable and related Review Account will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”).

Section 3.06 Review Period.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will use its best efforts to complete the Review within [60] days of receiving access to all Review Materials made available under Sections 3.03 and 3.04. If additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer under Section 3.04, the review period will be extended for an additional [30] days from the latest date on which such additional Review Materials are provided.

Section 3.07 Review Reports.

Within [five (5)] Business Days following the completion of the Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide the Servicer with a report identifying any Test that resulted in a “Test Fail” or “Test Incomplete.” Following the delivery of such report, the Servicer will have [fifteen (15)] Business Days to provide additional Review Materials or any other relevant information to the Asset Representations Reviewer, and the Asset Representations Reviewer will consider any applicable Test results in light of such additional Review Materials or information.

Within [30] days (or [45] days if additional Review Materials are provided in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph) following the end of the applicable review period described in Section 3.06, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide the Transferors, the

7

Servicer and the Trustee with a report providing each Test result (i.e., Test Pass, Test Fail or Test Incomplete) for each Review Account and Review Receivable (such report, a “Review Report”). The Review Report will contain a summary of the Review results which may be included (in whole or in part) in the Trust’s monthly Distribution Report on Form 10-D for the applicable Monthly Period. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that the Review Report does not contain any Personally Identifiable Information.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation (i) to determine whether a breach of the terms of any representation or warranty has occurred, (ii) to determine whether any applicable triggering events for a Review occurred, (iii) to determine which Accounts and/or Receivables are subject to a Review, (iv) to obtain or confirm the validity of the Review Materials, (v) to obtain missing or incomplete Review Materials, or (vi) to take any action or cause any other party to take any action under any of the Transaction Documents to enforce any remedies for breaches of any representations or warranties, including the Covered Representations.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests provided in Exhibit A in consideration of the Review Materials and will have no obligation to perform additional testing procedures on any Review Accounts or Review Receivables or to consider any additional information provided by any party. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation to provide reporting or information in addition to that described in Section 3.07. However, the Asset Representations Reviewer may perform additional testing procedures and may review and report on additional information that it determines in good faith to be material to its performance under this Agreement.

The Transferors expressly agree that the Asset Representations Reviewer is not advising the Transferors or any Affiliate of the Transferors or any Certificateholder or any investor or future investor concerning the suitability of the Certificates or any investment strategy. The Transferors expressly acknowledge and agree that the Asset Representations Reviewer is not an expert in accounting, tax, regulatory, or legal matters, and that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not provide legal advice as to any matter.

Section 3.09 Review Systems.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain and utilize an electronic case management system to manage the Tests and provide systematic control over each step in the Review process and ensure consistency and repeatability among the Tests.

Section 3.11 Dispute Resolution.

If an Account or Receivable that was reviewed by the Asset Representations Reviewer is the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of the Servicer. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer for its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the requesting party for the dispute resolution and will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the mediator or arbitrator for the dispute resolution in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If not paid by a party to the dispute resolution, the expenses will be reimbursed by the Transferors, or the Account Owners on behalf of the Transferors, in accordance with Section 4.02.

Section 3.12 Records Retention.

Unless otherwise directed by the Servicer, in connection with any Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain copies of the Review Materials (to the extent any Review Materials are copied or removed), the Review Report and any internal work papers and correspondence (collectively the “Client Records”) until the earlier of (i) the payment in full of all Covered Series and (ii) one (1) year after the delivery of such Review Report.

Exhibit 99.36

AMERICAN EXPRESS CREDIT ACCOUNT MASTER TRUST

Officer’s Certificate

I [certifying individual], certify as of [the date of the final prospectus] that:

1. I have reviewed the prospectus, dated [●], 20[●], relating to the American Express Credit Account Master Trust, Series [●] [Floating][Fixed] Rate Asset Backed Certificates (the “securities”) and am familiar with, in all material respects, the following: the characteristics of the securitized assets underlying the offering (the “securitized assets”), the structure of the securitization, and all material underlying transaction agreements as described in the prospectus;

2. Based on my knowledge, the prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading;

3. Based on my knowledge, the prospectus and other information included in the registration statement of which it is a part fairly present, in all material respects, the characteristics of the securitized assets, the structure of the securitization and the risks of ownership of the securities, including the risks relating to the securitized assets that would affect the cash flows available to service payments or distributions on the securities in accordance with their terms; and

4. Based on my knowledge, taking into account all material aspects of the characteristics of the securitized assets, the structure of the securitization, and the related risks as described in the prospectus, there is a reasonable basis to conclude that the securitization is structured to produce, but is not guaranteed by this certification to produce, expected cash flows at times and in amounts to service scheduled payments of interest and the ultimate repayment of principal on the securities (or other scheduled or required distributions on the securities, however denominated) in accordance with their terms as described in the prospectus.

5. The foregoing certifications are given subject to any and all defenses available to me under the federal securities laws, including any and all defenses available to an executive officer that signed the registration statement of which the prospectus referred to in this certification is part.
