(xv) pro rata, to the payment of all amounts, including indemnities, then due to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Asset Representations Reviewer for the Series 20__-__ Notes, and any expenses incurred by the Issuer for the Series 20__-__ Notes according to the Transaction Documents, in each case, if not paid by the Servicer or the Administrator or under clause (v) above;
(xvi) to the Back-up Servicer, any amounts due under Section 2.3(b) of the Back-up Servicing Agreement and any Transition Costs due under Section 2.3(c) of the Back-up Servicing Agreement in excess of the amount in the Back-up Servicer Reserve Account, in each case, for the Series 20__-__ Notes;

(b) Application of Credit Enhancement. If Available Investor Interest Collections for any Payment Date are insufficient to make the applications, payments and deposits required under Section 4.2(a), and if the Indenture Trustee has received the Monthly Investor Report by the related Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee (based on the information in the Monthly Investor Report) will, on or before that Payment Date, apply available funds from the following sources in the following order of priority:
(i) from Excess Interest Collections available from other Series in Excess Interest Sharing Group One, to cover shortfalls in the applications, payments and deposits under Sections 4.2(a)(i) through (xvi) in that order;
(ii) from Available Depositor Interest Collections and Available Depositor Principal Collections (for Available Depositor Principal Collections, in an amount not exceeding the Available Subordinated Amount (before giving effect to Section 4.3) for that Payment Date), to cover shortfalls in the applications, payments and deposits required under Sections 4.2(a)(i) through (x) in that order. If the amount of Available Depositor Collections is insufficient to cover those shortfalls for Series 20__-__, as well as any similar shortfalls for other Series, then Available Depositor Collections will be allocated to Series 20__-__ based on the ratio that the Available Subordinated Amount for Series 20__-__ has to the aggregate "Available Subordinated Amounts" for all Series having those shortfalls. If the amount of Available Depositor Collections exceeds the
| 11 |
aggregate amount of those shortfalls for all Series, then the excess Available Depositor Collections will be applied to cover any unpaid Adjustment Payments;
(iii) from the Series 20__-__ Reserve Account Available Amount, to cover shortfalls in the applications, payments and deposits required under Sections 4.2(a)(i) through (vii) in that order; and

(ii) to other Principal Sharing Series in Principal Sharing Group One, the Shared Principal Collections for that Payment Date;
(iii) to the Excess Funding Account, the excess, if any, of the Required Pool Balance over the Net Adjusted Pool Balance under Section 8.3(b)(ii) of the Indenture; and
(iv) on any Payment Date during the Excess Funding Period, to treat as Available Investor Interest Collections for that Payment Date, to cover shortfalls in the applications, payments and deposits under Sections 4.2(a)(i) through (vi) in that order; and
(v) to the Depositor Interest Account for distribution to the holders of the Depositor Interest according to the Trust Agreement, all remaining Available Investor Principal Collections.
(d) Excess Funding Amounts. If the Indenture Trustee has received the Monthly Investor Report by the related Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee (based on the information in the Monthly Investor Report) will, on each Payment Date for the [Controlled Accumulation Period,] Required Amortization Period or an Early Amortization Period, deposit in the Series 20__-__ Principal Funding Account from the Excess Funding Account the lesser of (i) the Series 20__-__ Excess Funding Amount, and (ii) the Monthly Principal Amount for that Payment Date.

If the amount of Available Depositor Collections is insufficient to cover the amount required under Section 4.2(c)(i) for Series 20__-__, as well as any similar shortfalls for other Series, then Available Depositor Collections will be allocated to Series 20__-__ based on the ratio that the Available Subordinated Amount for Series 20__-__ has to the aggregate "Available Subordinated Amounts" for all Series having those shortfalls.
(f) Payments of Principal. If an Early Amortization Period has not begun, on the earlier of (i) the Expected Final Payment Date or (ii) the Redemption Date, or on each Payment Date for the Required Amortization Period or an Early Amortization Period, and if the Indenture Trustee has received the Monthly Investor Report by the related Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee (based on the information in the Monthly Investor Report) will withdraw an amount up to the aggregate Note Balance of Series 20__-__ from the Series 20__-__ Principal Funding Account for payment in the following order of priority: (i) to the Noteholders of [the][each Class of] Class A Notes, [pro rata based on the principal amount of each Class of Class A Notes,] until the Note Balance of [the][each Class of] Class A Notes is reduced to zero, (ii) to the Noteholders of Class B Notes, until the Note Balance of the Class B Notes is reduced to zero, (iii) to the Noteholders of the Class C Notes, until the Note Balance of the Class C Notes is reduced to zero and (iv) to the Noteholders of the Class D Notes, until the Note Balance of the Class D Notes is reduced to zero.

(a) Establishment of Series 20__-__ Accounts. On or before the Closing Date, the Servicer will establish the following segregated trust accounts at a Qualified Institution (initially the corporate trust department of The Bank of New York Mellon), each in the name "The Bank of New York Mellon, as Indenture Trustee, as secured party for Ford Credit Floorplan Master Owner Trust A for Series 20__-__", to be designated as follows:

ARTICLE VI
Series 20__-__ Amortization Events
Section 6.1. Series 20__-__ Amortization Events. Any of the following events for the Series 20__-__ Notes will be an Amortization Event:
(a) Failure to Make Required Payments; Failure to Perform. Either Depositor fails (i) to make any payment or deposit required to be made under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture or this Indenture Supplement on or before the date occurring five Business Days after the date the payment or deposit is required to be made or (ii) to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of that Depositor in the
| 22 |
related Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture or this Indenture Supplement that has an Adverse Effect and continues for 60 days after the Depositor receives notice from the Indenture Trustee of the failure, requiring it to be corrected, and the failure continues to have an Adverse Effect for that 60-day period;
(b) Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty made by either Depositor in the related Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture or this Indenture Supplement, or any information contained in a computer file or other list required to be delivered by that Depositor under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement, proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or when delivered and has an Adverse Effect, which continues to be incorrect in any material respect for 60 days after the Depositor receives notice from the Indenture Trustee of the failure, requiring it to be corrected, and the failure continues to have an Adverse Effect for that 60-day period. However, a Series 20__-__ Amortization Event under this subsection (b) will be considered corrected if that Depositor has accepted reassignment of the related Receivable, or all those Receivables, if applicable, during that period according to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement;
(c) Servicer Termination Event. A Servicer Termination Event occurs that has an Adverse Effect;
(d) Expected Final Payment Date. The Note Balance of the Series 20__-__ Notes is not paid in full on the Expected Final Payment Date;
(e) Monthly Principal Payment Rate. The average of the Monthly Principal Payment Rates for the three prior Collection Periods is less than __%;
(f) Required Subordinated Amount. On any Determination Date, the Available Subordinated Amount for the next Payment Date will be less than the Required Subordinated Amount after giving effect to any payments to be made on that Payment Date, and continues unremedied for five Business Days after that Payment Date. For the purpose of determining whether a Series 20__-__ Amortization Event has occurred under this subsection (f), any reduction of the Available Subordinated Amount resulting from reallocations of the Available Depositor Principal Collections to pay interest on the Series 20__-__ Notes if the Benchmark is equal to or greater than the prime rate on which interest on the receivables is calculated on the applicable Benchmark Determination Date will be considered a Series 20__-__ Amortization Event only if Benchmark remains equal to or greater than the prime rate for the next 30 consecutive days following that Benchmark Determination Date;
(g) Excess Funding Account. The amounts in the Excess Funding Account exceed __% of the sum of the "Adjusted Invested Amounts" of all Series for three consecutive Collection Periods, after giving effect to any payments to be made on each related Payment Date; or
(h) Acceleration of Series 20__-__ Notes. An Event of Default for Series 20__-__ occurs and the Series 20__-__ Notes are accelerated under Section 5.2 of the Indenture.
If an event described in subsections (a) through (c) above occurs and is continuing, either the Indenture Trustee or the Series 20__-__ Noteholders of a majority of the Note Balance of the
| 23 |
Series 20__-__ Notes by notifying the Depositors and the Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Series 20__-__ Noteholders) may declare that an Amortization Event for the Series 20__-__ Notes (a "Series 20__-__ Amortization Event") has occurred. If an event described in subsections (d) through (h) above occurs, a Series 20__-__ Amortization Event will occur immediately without any notice or other action by the Indenture Trustee or the Series 20__-__ Noteholders.

(iii) of the outstanding Note Balance of each Class of the Notes to be redeemed and that the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, Make-Whole Payments and Step-Up Amounts on the Notes to the Redemption Date will be paid in full;
(iv) of the place to surrender the Notes for final payment (which will be the office or agency of the Issuer maintained under Section 3.2 of the Indenture); and
(v) that on the Redemption Date, the outstanding Note Balance of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes will become due and payable and that interest on the Notes will cease to accrue from and after the Redemption Date, unless the Issuer fails to pay the Notes on the Redemption Date.
(b) Deposit of Note Redemption Price. If the Notes are to be redeemed under this Section 7.1, the Issuer will cause the Depositors to deposit on the Business Day before the Redemption Date (or, with satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, on the Redemption Date) in the Collection Account the sum of (A) the Note Redemption Price for the Notes and (B) all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture Supplement on such payment Date, and the Notes will be paid in full on the Redemption Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Depositors may satisfy their obligation to pay the Note Redemption Price, in whole or in part, by causing the Issuer to issue one or more Series of Notes, re-open an existing Series of Notes or draw on an existing Variable Funding Note Series, on or before the Redemption Date and causing the proceeds of such issuance, re-opening or drawing to be deposited in the Collection Account.
| 24 |
(c) Release of Funds. On the Redemption Date, the outstanding Note Balance of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes will become due and payable and that interest on the Notes will cease to accrue from and after the Redemption Date, unless the Issuer fails to pay the Notes on the Redemption Date. On redemption, the Indenture Trustee will release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled to funds then in the Series 20__-__ Accounts under this Indenture Supplement according to Section 4.7(f).]

If the Collateral allocable to Series 20__-__ is liquidated under Section 5.6(c) of the Indenture, the proceeds from the liquidation will be paid to the Series 20__-__ Noteholders on the first Payment Date after the Collection Period in which the liquidation occurs. If the Indenture Trustee has received the Monthly Investor Report by the related Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee will (based on the information in the Monthly Investor Report) make payments or distributions of the Reassignment Amount or the proceeds from any liquidation of Collateral allocable to Series 20__-__ under Section 5.6(c) of the Indenture according to Section 4.2 on the related Payment Date.
(b) Payment in Full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture Supplement, the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreements, (i) all amounts distributed to the Note Paying Agent under Section 7.2(a) for payment to the Series 20__-__Noteholders will be considered paid in full to the Series 20__-__ Noteholders on the date the funds are distributed to the Note Paying Agent under this Section 7.2(b) and will be considered to be a final payment of the Series 20__-__ Notes and (ii) if the amounts available for final payment to the Series 20__-__ Noteholders and to the Noteholders of any other Series on any Payment Date are less than the amount required to be so paid, the available amounts will be allocated to each Series based on the respective amounts required to be paid to each Series on that Payment Date.
