The Investment Adviser shall not use any such materials without the Sub-Adviser's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; and the Investment Adviser shall not use any such materials which do not include the Xxxx if the Sub-Adviser reasonably objects in writing within ten (10) business days (or such other time as may be mutually agreed upon) after the Sub-Adviser's receipt thereof.
Administration of Buydown Funds (a) With respect to any Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer has deposited Buydown Funds in an account that satisfies the requirements for a Subservicing Account (the "Buydown Account"). The Master Servicer shall cause the Subservicing Agreement to require that upon receipt from the Mortgagor of the amount due on a Due Date for each Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer will withdraw from the Buydown Account the predetermined amount that, when added to the amount due on such date from the Mortgagor, equals the full Monthly Payment and transmit that amount in accordance with the terms of the Subservicing Agreement to the Master Servicer together with the related payment made by the Mortgagor or advanced by the Subservicer.
(b) If the Mortgagor on a Buydown Mortgage Loan prepays such loan in its entirety during the period (the "Buydown Period") when Buydown Funds are required to be applied to such Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer shall be required to withdraw from the Buydown Account and remit any Buydown Funds remaining in the Buydown Account in accordance with the related buydown agreement. The amount of Buydown Funds which may be remitted in accordance with the related buydown agreement may reduce the amount required to be paid by the Mortgagor to fully prepay the related Mortgage Loan. If the Mortgagor on a Buydown Mortgage Loan defaults on such Mortgage Loan during the Buydown Period and the property securing such Buydown Mortgage Loan is sold in the liquidation thereof (either by the Master Servicer or the insurer under any related Primary Insurance Policy), the Subservicer shall be required to withdraw from the Buydown Account the Buydown Funds for such Buydown Mortgage Loan still held in the Buydown Account and remit the same to the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Subservicing Agreement for deposit in the Custodial Account or, if instructed by the Master Servicer, pay to the insurer under any related Primary Insurance Policy if the Mortgaged Property is transferred to such insurer and such insurer pays all of the loss incurred in respect of such default. Any amount so remitted pursuant to the preceding sentence will be deemed to reduce the amount owed on the Mortgage Loan.
Administration of Deposit Accounts Schedule 8.5 sets forth all Deposit Accounts maintained by Obligors, including all Dominion Accounts. Each Obligor shall take all actions necessary to establish Agent’s control over each such Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts). Each Obligor shall be the sole account holder of each Deposit Account and shall not allow any Person (other than Agent) to have control over a Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein. Each Obligor shall promptly notify Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account and, with the consent of Agent, will amend Schedule 8.5 to reflect same.
Establishment of Custodial Accounts; Deposits in Custodial Accounts The Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts. The Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on by the Seller in accordance with Section 4.05. The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form shown in Exhibit C hereto. The original of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Purchaser on the initial Closing Date, and upon the request of any subsequent Purchaser. The Seller shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain therein the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to each Cut-off Date, or received by it prior to such Cut-off Date but allocable to a period subsequent thereto, other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before such Cut-off Date:
(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate;
(iii) all Liquidation Proceeds;
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited by the Seller in connection with any REO Property pursuant to Section 4.13 (including REO Disposition Proceeds);
(v) all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Sections 4.08, 4.10 and 4.11, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, the loan documents or applicable law;
(vi) all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property which are not released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices the loan documents or applicable law;
(vii) any Monthly Advances;
(viii) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or otherwise collected in accordance with Article III and Section 2.07;
(ix) any amounts required to be deposited by the Seller pursuant to Section 4.10 in connection with the deductible clause in any blanket hazard insurance policy, such deposit shall be made from the Seller’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor;
(x) any amounts required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.01, 4.13 or 6.02:
(xi) with respect to each Principal Prepayment, an amount (to be paid by the Seller out of its own funds without reimbursement therefor) which, when added to all amount allocable to interest received in connection with such Principle Prepayment, equals one month’s interest on the amount of the principal so prepaid at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate of deposits made by the Seller pursuant to this clause (xi) exceed the aggregate amount of the Servicing Fee in the calendar month in which such deposits are required. The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges and assumption fees, to the extent permitted by Section 6.01, need not be deposited by the Seller in the Custodial Account. Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Seller and the Seller shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05 (iv).
Administration of Accounts (a) The Administrative Agent retains the right after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to notify the Account Debtors to pay all amounts owing on Accounts constituting Collateral to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, and to collect the Accounts directly in its own name and to charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to the Borrower Parties. The Administrative Agent has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Accounts or preserve rights in them.

(b) If an Account includes a charge for any tax payable to any governmental taxing authority, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders is authorized, in its sole discretion, to pay the amount thereof to the proper taxing authority for the account of the applicable Borrower Party and to make a Base Rate Advance to the Borrowers to pay therefor. The Borrower Parties shall notify the Administrative Agent if any Account includes any tax due to any governmental taxing authority and, in the absence of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to retain the full proceeds of the Account and shall not be liable for any taxes to any governmental taxing authority that may be due by any Borrower Party by reason of the sale and delivery creating the Account.
(c) Whether or not a Default has occurred, any of the Administrative Agent’s officers, employees or agents shall have the right after prior notice to the Administrative Borrower (provided no prior notice shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), at any time or times hereafter, in the name of the Lenders, or any designee of the Lenders or the Borrower Parties, to verify the validity, amount or other matter relating to any Accounts by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise.
