The Class A Certificates are held by certain parties who have agreed to fund, from time to time at the request of the transferor to the Trust, the unfunded amount under the Class A Certificates up to the maximum invested amount thereof, subject to the terms and conditions of the Class A Certificates, the Series 2012-A Supplement and a purchase agreement among the transferor to the Trust, the holders of the Class A Certificates and certain other parties.
