Immediately prior to the conveyance of each Receivable to the Grantor Trust pursuant to this Agreement and [the][each] RCA Assignment, the Issuing Entity had good and marketable title thereto, free and clear of all Liens except for liens and encumbrances that will be released concurrent with the transfer of Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
