(a)
No Class B Optional Redemption may occur prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date or while any Class A Notes are Outstanding unless the same are concurrently redeemed in full (or, if no Early Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, a partial Optional Redemption of the Class B Notes may be effected if the Issuer concurrently effects an Optional Redemption in part of the Class A Notes within such Series in the same proportion as the Optional Redemption in part of the Class B Notes). Subject to the restrictions in Sections 3.12 and 3.13 of the Master Indenture, the Issuer will have the option to prepay, in an Optional Redemption on any on any Business Day occurring on or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date (each such date, a “Class B Optional Redemption Date”), all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class B Notes (any such redemption, a “Class B Optional Redemption”), for a Redemption Price equal to the sum of (i) the amount of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class B Notes being redeemed on such Class B Optional Redemption Date, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) thereon to the Class B Optional Redemption Date, plus (iii) if occurring prior to the August 2024 Payment Date, a redemption premium (the “Class B Redemption Premium”) calculated as follows:

The Class B Redemption Premium will be an amount equal to the product of (x) a fraction (expressed as a percentage), the numerator of which is the amount of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class B Notes being redeemed and the denominator of which is the Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes immediately prior to such redemption and (y) the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of the present values of all the scheduled payments of principal and interest based upon Scheduled Targeted Principal Balances of the Class B Notes from the Class B Optional Redemption Date to and including the August 2024 Payment Date (assuming full prepayment on such date), discounted monthly to the Class B Optional Redemption Date at a rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus three quarters of one percent (0.75%), based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months; over (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class B Notes plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon.

[Series Supplement (Series 2022-1)]

(b)
For purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Premium, the term “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to each applicable Series 2022-1 Note, a per annum rate (expressed as a monthly equivalent and as a decimal and, in the case of United States Treasury bills, converted to a bond equivalent yield), determined to be the per annum rate equal to the monthly yield to maturity for United States Treasury securities maturing on the Average Life Date of such applicable Series 2022-1 Note as determined by interpolation between the most recent weekly average yields to maturity for two series of United States Treasury securities, (i) one maturing as close as possible to, but earlier than, the Average Life Date of such Series 2022-1 Note and (ii) the other maturing as close as possible to, but later than, the Average Life Date of such Series 2022-1 Note, in each case, as published in the most recent H.15(519) (or, if a weekly average yield to maturity of United States Treasury securities maturing on the Average Life Date of such Series 2022-1 Note is reported in the most recent H.15(519), as published in H.15(519)). “H.15(519)” means “Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates,” or any successor publication published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

The term “Average Life Date” of each applicable Series 2022-1 Note means the date which follows the prepayment date by a period equal to the Remaining Weighted Average Life of such Series 2022-1 Note. The “Remaining Weighted Average Life” of a Series 2022-1 Note at the prepayment or determination date of such Series 2022-1 Note shall be the number of days equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the Scheduled Targeted Principal Balances for each remaining Payment Date (from the applicable Optional Redemption Date to the August 2024 Payment Date, in the case of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, in each case, assuming full prepayment on such Payment Date, as applicable) by (ii) the number of days from and including the prepayment or determination date to but excluding the scheduled payment date of such principal payment, by (b) the Outstanding Principal Balance of the applicable Series 2022-1 Notes on such date of prepayment or determination. The Issuer will calculate (or cause to be calculated) the applicable Redemption Price and Redemption Premium (if any) and deliver such information in writing to the Indenture Trustee at the time that it gives notice of an Optional Redemption pursuant to Sections 3.12 and 3.13 of the Master Indenture.

(c)
Subject to the restrictions in Sections 3.12 and 3.13 of the Master Indenture, the Issuer will have the option to prepay, in an Optional Redemption on any Business Day occurring on or after the August 2024 Payment Date (each such Payment Date, a “Series 2022-1 Optional Redemption Date”), all of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Series 2022-1 Notes, for the Redemption Price equal to the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Series 2022-1 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including Additional Interest, if any) to the Series 2022-1 Optional Redemption Date; provided, however, that such Redemption Price shall not include any Redemption Premium.
