Servicer Termination Event For purposes of this Agreement, each of the following shall constitute a “Servicer Termination Event”:
Servicer Termination Events For purposes of this Agreement, the occurrence and continuance of any of the following shall constitute a “Servicer Termination Event”:
(a) Any failure by the Servicer to deposit into any Account any proceeds or payment required to be so delivered or to direct the Indenture Trustee to make the required payment from any Account under the terms of this Agreement that continues unremedied for a period of five Business days after written notice is received by the Servicer or after discovery of such failure by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer;
(b) Failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material respect, any covenants or agreements of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement, which failure (i) materially and adversely affects the rights of the Securityholders and (ii) continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after discovery of such failure by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer or after the date on which written notice of such failure requiring the same to be remedied shall have been given to the Servicer by any of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or Noteholders evidencing not less than 50% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class of Notes;
(c) If any representation or warranty of the Servicer, in its capacity as Servicer, made in this Agreement shall prove to be incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made and the incorrectness of such representation or warranty has a material adverse effect on the Issuer or the Noteholders and such failure continues unremedied for 90 days after discovery thereof by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer or receipt by the Servicer of written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders representing not less than 50% of the Outstanding Amounts of the Notes; or
(d) The occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Servicer; provided, however, that a delay or failure of performance referred to under clause (a) above for a period of 10 days or clause (b) or (c) above for a period of 30 days will not constitute a Servicer Termination Event if such delay or failure was caused by force majeure or other similar occurrence.
Servicer and Backup Servicer Not to Resign (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.4, neither the Servicer nor the Backup Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement as Servicer or Backup Servicer except upon a determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements the performance of its duties under this Agreement would cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements in a manner which would have a material adverse effect on the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, if the Majority Noteholders do not elect to waive the obligations of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, to perform the duties which render it legally unable to act or to delegate those duties to another Person. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered and acceptable to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee. No resignation of the Servicer shall become effective until the Backup Servicer or an entity acceptable to the Majority Noteholders shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer. No resignation of the Backup Servicer shall become effective until an entity acceptable to the Majority Noteholders shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Backup Servicer; provided, however, that (i) in the event a successor Backup Servicer is not appointed within 60 days after the Backup Servicer has given notice of its resignation and has provided the Opinion of Counsel required by this Section, the Backup Servicer may petition a court for its removal (all reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred in connection with such petition will be paid by the Issuer pursuant to Section 5.7(a) hereof or Section 5.6 of the Indenture, as applicable), (ii) the Backup Servicer may resign with the written consent of the Majority Noteholders and (iii) if Citibank, N.A. resigns as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, it will no longer be the Backup Servicer.
(b) The Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) may delegate any or all of its duties to any sub-contractor with the prior consent of the Holding Trust. No delegation or sub-contracting by the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) of its duties herein in the manner described in this Section 8.7 shall relieve the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) of its responsibility with respect to such duties. As of the date hereof, the Holding Trust has provided its consent to the delegation by the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer if so appointed) of all of its duties as Backup Servicer (including its duties as successor Servicer if so appointed) to Systems & Services Technologies, Inc.
Servicer Events of Termination (a) If any one of the following events (“Servicer Events of Termination”) shall occur and be continuing:
(A) The failure by the Servicer to make any Advance; or (B) any other failure by the Servicer to deposit in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account any deposit required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or to the Servicer and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or any Holders of a Regular Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(ii) The failure by the Servicer to make any required Servicing Advance which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days, or the failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material respect, any other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Servicer as set forth in this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or if such failure or breach cannot be remedied within 30 days, then such remedy shall have been commenced within 30 days and diligently pursued thereafter; provided, however, that in no event shall such failure or breach be allowed to exist for a period of greater than 90 days), after the date (A) on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or to the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or any Holders of a Regular Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights or (B) of actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; or
(iii) The entry against the Servicer of a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, conservatorship, receivership, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 days; or
(iv) The Servicer shall voluntarily go into liquidation, consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or similar person in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or similar person in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations;
(v) A Delinquency Servicer Termination Trigger has occurred and is continuing;
(b) then, and in each and every such case, so long as a Servicer Event of Termination shall not have been remedied within the applicable grace period, (x) with respect solely to clause (i)(A) above, if such Advance is not made by 5:00 P.M., New York time, on the Business Day immediately following the Servicer Remittance Date (provided the Trustee shall give the Servicer notice of such failure to advance by 5:00 P.M. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date), the Trustee shall, at the direction of the NIMS Insurer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof and the Trustee, or a successor servicer appointed in accordance with Section 7.02, shall immediately make such Advance and assume, pursuant to Section 7.02, the duties of a successor Servicer and (y) in the case of (i)(B), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Trustee shall, at the direction of the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of each Class of Regular Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 51%, by notice then given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Servicer shall also be given to each Rating Agency, the Depositor and the Servicer. On or after the receipt by the Servicer (and by the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders) of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section; and, without limitation, and the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of each Mortgage Loan and related documents or otherwise. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee (or the applicable successor Servicer) in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Trustee of all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Servicer’s functions under this Agreement within ten Business Days subsequent to such notice, the transfer within one Business Day subsequent to such notice to the Trustee (or the applicable successor Servicer) for the administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the Servicer and to be deposited by it in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, any REO Account or any Servicing Account or that have been deposited by the Servicer in such accounts or thereafter received by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property received by the Servicer. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Mortgage Files to the successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Trustee, the initial Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses and to the extent not paid by the Servicer, by the Trust.
Consequences of a Servicer Termination Event If a Servicer Termination Event shall occur and be continuing, the Trust Collateral Agent may, or at the direction of the Majority Noteholders shall, by notice given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Trust Collateral Agent if given by the Noteholders) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice or upon termination of the term of the Servicer, all authority, power, obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificate or the Other Conveyed Property or otherwise, shall pass to, be vested in and become obligations and responsibilities of the successor Servicer appointed by the Majority Noteholders; provided, however, that the successor Servicer shall have no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the successor Servicer becomes the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer. The successor Servicer is authorized and empowered by this Agreement to execute and deliver, on behalf of the terminated Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and related documents to show the Trust as lienholder or secured party on the related Lien Certificates, or otherwise. The terminated Servicer agrees to cooperate with the successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer to the successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the terminated Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the terminated Servicer, in the Collection Account or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables and the delivery to the successor Servicer of all Receivable Files, Monthly Records and Collection Records and a computer tape in readable form as of the most recent Business Day containing all information necessary to enable the successor Servicer to service the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property. The terminated Servicer shall grant the Trust Collateral Agent, the successor Servicer and the Majority Noteholders reasonable access to the terminated Servicer’s premises at the terminated Servicer’s expense.
Backup Servicer If a Servicer Default shall occur, then the Controlling Holders may, by notice to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Backup Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Servicer of such notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Pledged Assets or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer appointed by the Controlling Holders pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer appointed hereunder is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Lenders and the Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, providing notification to the Obligors of the assignment of the servicing function, providing the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, at the Servicer’s expense, with all records, in electronic or other form, reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, in such form as the Backup Servicer may reasonably request and at such times as the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer may reasonably request, to enable such Person to assume the servicing functions hereunder and the transfer to such Person for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time should be or should have been deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account or thereafter be received by the Servicer with respect to the Pledged Receivables. Additionally, the Servicer agrees to cooperate in providing, at the Servicer’s expense, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer as successor Servicer, with reasonable access (including at the premises of the Servicer) to Servicer’s employees and any and all books, records or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder. Neither any Lender nor the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer shall be deemed to have breached any obligation hereunder as a result of a failure to make or delay in making any distribution as and when required hereunder caused by the failure of the Servicer to remit any amounts received by it or to deliver any documents held by it with respect to the Pledged Assets. The Backup Servicer (including as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer hereunder. The Active Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) on and after the date, if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this Section. The Standby Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) prior to the date, if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this Section. Any obligations of LEAF Financial under any Transaction Document other than in its capacity as Servicer shall continue in effect notwithstanding LEAF Financial’s termination as Servicer. On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination (with a copy delivered to the Backup Servicer) pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer shall be (and the Backup Servicer hereby agrees to be) the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject thereafter to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Section 6.13 shall not be considered a default by the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer hereunder; provided, further, however, that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall have (i) no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer shall pay any income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, and (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including the original Servicer. The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, neither the Backup Servicer nor any other successor Servicer shall have any liability relating to the representations and warranties of the Servicer contained in Article IV. Notwithstanding the above, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (or, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, the Primary Lender under the related Loan Agreement) may, or shall, if the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer is unable to so act, appoint itself, or appoint any other established servicing institution acceptable to the Lenders in their sole discretion, as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, and after the Lenders notify the Servicer to discontinue performing servicing functions under this Agreement, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer (or Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (or, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, the Primary Lender under the related Loan Agreement) if there is no Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer) shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Lenders may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Pledged Receivables as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that, except as provided herein, no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer hereunder, unless (i) agreed to by the Lenders and (ii) such compensation shall be on commercially competitive terms and rates. The Borrower, the Lenders and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The parties hereto agree that in no event will the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages. Each of the Backup Servicer and any other successor Servicer hereby agrees that it shall, and shall take all actions necessary so that it shall at all times be ready to, assume all the rights and powers and all of the responsibilities, obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder, within ten (10) Business Days of receiving from a Lender a notice requesting the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer to do so. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, absent specific knowledge by any Lyon Financial Services, Inc. account representative assigned to this transaction from time to time, or written notice detailing specific Errors (as defined below) or other deficiencies, Lyon Financial Services, Inc., as successor Servicer, is authorized to accept and rely on all accounting records (including computer records) and work product of the prior Servicer hereunder relating to the Contracts (collectively, the “Predecessor Servicer Work Product”) without any audit or other examination thereof, and Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy, commission or incorrect or nonstandard practice or procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such Errors cause Lyon Financial Services, Inc. to make or continue any errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no liability for such Continued Errors; provided, however, that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. agrees to use its best efforts to prevent Continued Errors. In the event that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall, with the prior consent of the Lenders, use commercially reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile any affected data to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors. Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended as Servicer Advances in accordance with Section 2.04(a) hereof. Within four (4) Business Days after each Remittance Date, provided that the Backup Servicer shall have received the information specified in Section 6.10(d) within the time specified therein, the Backup Servicer shall compare the information on the computer tape or diskette (or other means of electronic transmission acceptable to the Backup Servicer) most recently delivered to the Backup Servicer by the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) with respect to such Remittance Date to the corresponding Monthly Remittance Report delivered to the Backup Servicer by the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) and shall:
(a) confirm that such Monthly Remittance Report is complete on its face;
(b) confirm the distributions to be made on such Remittance Date pursuant to Section 2.04(a) hereof to the extent the Backup Servicer is able to do so given the information provided to it by the Servicer (it being hereby agreed that the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Servicer and the Lenders if such information is insufficient and that the Servicer shall promptly provide to the Backup Servicer any additional information required by the Backup Servicer);
(c) confirm the mathematical computations of information in such Monthly Remittance Report; and
(d) confirm such other information as the Backup Servicer and the Lenders may agree. In the event of any discrepancy between the information set forth in subparagraphs (b) or (c) above as calculated by the Servicer and that determined or calculated by the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicer shall promptly report such discrepancy to the Servicer and the Lenders. In the event of a discrepancy as described in the preceding sentence, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy within five (5) Business Days after reporting such discrepancy, but in the absence of a reconciliation, distributions on the related Remittance Date shall be made consistent with the information calculated by the Servicer, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy prior to the next Remittance Date, and the Servicer shall promptly report to the Lenders regarding the progress, if any, which shall have been made in reconciling such discrepancy. If the Backup Servicer and the Servicer are unable to reconcile such discrepancy with respect to such Monthly Remittance Report by the next Remittance Date that falls in April, July, October or January, the Servicer shall cause independent accountants acceptable to the Lenders, at the Servicer’s expense, to examine such Monthly Remittance Report and attempt to reconcile such discrepancy at the earliest possible date (and the Servicer shall promptly provide the Lenders with a report regarding such event). The effect, if any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected in the Monthly Remittance Report for the next succeeding Remittance Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall be referred to herein as the “Discrepancy Procedure”. Other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall have no liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer. The Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer may allow a subservicer to perform any and all of its duties and responsibilities hereunder, including but not limited to its duties as successor Servicer hereunder, should the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer become the successor Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as applicable, shall remain liable for the performance of all of its duties and obligations hereunder to the same extent as if no such subservicing had occurred. In no event shall the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer (either prior to or after its appointment hereunder as Servicer) be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including without limitation, acts of terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God.
Termination of Servicing Agreements; Successor Servicers (a) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of any Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, the Master Servicer shall either act as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a successor Servicer to be appointed as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement. The parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if the Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the predecessor servicer, including without limitation, any costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer or all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data, as may be required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.
(b) If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it replaces. The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor Servicer assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated Servicer in the related Servicing Agreement, and in the event of any such assumption by the successor Servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated Servicer from liability for such representations and warranties.
(c) If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will have no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable. To the extent that the Master Servicer is unable to find a successor Servicer that is willing to service the Mortgage Loans for the Servicing Fee because of the obligation of the Servicer to make Advances regardless of whether such Advance is recoverable, the applicable Servicing Agreement may be amended to provide that the successor Servicer shall have no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable and provides an Officer’s Certificate to such effect to the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
Servicing Termination Section 6.01.
Master Servicing; Termination of Servicer The Servicer, including any successor servicer hereunder, shall be subject to the supervision of the Master Servicer, which Master Servicer shall be obligated to ensure that the Servicer services the Serviced Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee and the SASCO 2000-4 Trust Fund (the "Trust Fund") created pursuant to the Trust Agreement, shall have the same rights as Xxxxxx Capital, as purchaser, under the Servicing Agreement to enforce the obligations of the Servicer under the Master Servicing Agreement and the term "Purchaser" as used in the Master Servicing Agreement in connection with any rights of the Purchaser shall refer to the Trust Fund or, as the context requires, the Master Servicer or the Trustee acting in its capacity as agent for the Trust Fund, except as otherwise specified in Exhibit A hereto. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement upon the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, which failure results in an Event of Default as provided in Article IX of the Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer assume any of the obligations of Xxxxxx Capital under the Servicing Agreement and in connection with the performance of the Master Servicer's duties hereunder, the parties and other signatories hereto agree that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to all of the rights, protections and limitations of liability afforded to the Master Servicer under the Trust Agreement.
Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Master Servicer and Sub-Servicers (a) The Master Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating on any Class of Certificates. The Trustee is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at the request of the Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicing Agreement that meets the requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement and that is otherwise permitted under this Agreement. Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mxxxxxxx servicex. Xxxh Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 and provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Master Servicer will examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights shall not be required (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect in a Sub-Servicing Agreement, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any provisions of a Sub- Servicing Agreement, or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under a Sub-Servicing Agreement, which, in each case, shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub- Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Master Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Master Servicer's execution and delivery of such instruments.
(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and of the Originator under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub-Servicing Agreement, or to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a). Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys' fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed. Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement against the Originator shall be effected by the Master Servicer to the extent it is not the Originator, and otherwise by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.
