          Section 203. Interest Payments on the Series 2007-1 Notes.
          (a) Interest on Series 2007-1 Notes. Interest shall be due and payable on each Series 2007-1 Note on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Series 2007-1 Note Interest Payment for such Series 2007-1 Note on such Payment Date. Each Deal Agent shall, by not later than the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding each Payment Date, deliver to each of the Issuer, the Manager and the Control Party a calculation of the Interest Payments payable on the Series 2007-1 Notes on such Payment Date. Such Interest Payments shall be payable on each Payment Date from amounts on deposit in the Series 2007-1 Series Account in accordance with Section 302 of this Supplement. To the extent that the amount of interest which is due and payable on any Payment Date is not paid in full on such date, such shortfall shall be due and payable on the immediately succeeding Payment Date.
          (b) Interest on Overdue Amounts. If the Issuer shall default in the payment of (i) the Series 2007-1 Note Principal Balance on the Legal Final Maturity Date, or (ii) the Series 2007-1 Note Interest Payment for any Series 2007-1 Note on any Payment Date, or (iii) any other amount due to the Series 2007-1 Noteholders under this Supplement and/or the Indenture on the date when due, then, in each case, the Issuer shall, from time to time, pay interest on such unpaid amounts, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to, but not including, the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment), at a rate per annum equal to the Overdue Rate, for the period during which such principal, interest or other amount shall be unpaid from the due date of such payment to the date of actual payment thereof. Default Fees shall be distributed

10


 

from the Series 2007-1 Series Account at the times and subject to the priorities set forth in Section 302 of this Supplement.
          (c) Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall the interest charged with respect to a Series 2007-1 Note exceed the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law. If at any time the interest rate charged with respect to a Series 2007-1 Note exceeds the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law, the rate of interest to accrue pursuant to this Supplement and such Series 2007-1 Note shall be limited to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law, but any subsequent reductions in the Alternative Rate shall not reduce the interest to accrue on such Series 2007-1 Note below the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law until the total amount of interest accrued on such Series 2007-1 Note equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if a varying rate per annum equal to the interest rate had at all times been in effect. If the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Series 2007-1 Note under the foregoing provisions is less than the total amount of interest that would have accrued if the interest rate had at all times been in effect, the Issuer agrees to pay to the Series 2007-1 Noteholders an amount equal to the difference between (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law had at all times been in effect, or (ii) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the interest rate had at all times been in effect, and (b) the amount of interest accrued in accordance with the other provisions of this Supplement.
          (d) Interest on the Series 2007-1 Notes calculated utilizing the LIBOR Rate and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day ) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Interest on Series 2007-1 Notes calculated utilizing the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable.
          Section 204. Principal Payments on the Series 2007-1 Notes. (a) The unpaid principal balance of the Series 2007-1 Notes shall be payable on each Payment Date occurring prior to the Legal Final Maturity Date from amounts on deposit in the Series 2007-1 Series Account, or funds otherwise available for such purpose, in an amount equal to that portion of the Supplemental Principal Payment Amount for such Payment Date that has been allocated to the Series 2007-1 Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The Aggregate Series 2007-1 Note Principal Balance, together with all unpaid interest (including all Default Fees), fees (including all Commitment Fees), expenses, Breakage Costs and all other amounts payable by the Issuer to the Series 2007-1 Noteholders, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and this Supplement, shall be due and payable in full on the earlier to occur of (x) the date on which an Event of Default shall occur and the Series 2007-1 Notes have been accelerated in accordance with Section 802 of the Indenture and (y) the Legal Final Maturity Date.
          (b) The Issuer may, on any Payment Date and upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Series 2007-1 Noteholders (which notice shall be irrevocable when given), voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part, the Aggregate Series 2007-1 Note Principal Balance by making a wire transfer to the Series 2007-1 Series Account; provided, however, that (i) each such voluntary prepayment to each Series 2007-1 Noteholder must be for an amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and (ii) the
