The Master Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to, and to the extent provided for in Sections 3.06(a)(iii), Section 3.06(A) and Section 3.07(b), to withdraw from the Collection Account and the Loan Combination Custodial Accounts and to receive from any Mortgagor Accounts (to the extent not payable to the related Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Loan Combination or applicable law) any interest or other income earned on deposits therein. Interest or other income earned on funds in the Collection Account, Loan Combination Custodial Account and Mortgagor Accounts (to the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents), shall be paid to the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and interest or other income earned on funds in any REO Account shall be payable to the Special Servicer. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to charge and retain reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request with respect to any Performing Serviced Loan that either does not relate to a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision or relates to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision that is being processed by the Master Servicer with the mutual agreement of the Special Servicer, to the extent such fees are (i) not inconsistent with the related Loan Documents, (ii) in accordance with the Servicing Standard and (iii) actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer’s right to the additional servicing compensation described in this paragraph with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan shall be subject to the related Co-Lender Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Excess Modification Fee, Assumption Fee, Consent Fee or other fee with respect to a Performing Serviced Loan that is required to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in its sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any such fee; provided, however (x) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the percentage interest of any fee due to the other and (y) to the extent either of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge such fee shall not have any right to share in any portion of the other party’s fee. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall still be entitled to charge the portion of the related fee the Special Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to Performing Serviced Loans and, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, shall not prohibit any waiver or reduction by the Special Servicer of any fee payable by the Mortgagor with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan. Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and any successor holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Rights shall be entitled, at any time, at its own expense, to transfer, sell, pledge or otherwise assign such Excess Servicing Fee Rights in whole (but not in part), in either case, to any Qualified Institutional Buyer or Institutional Accredited Investor (other than a Plan); provided that no such transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment shall be made unless (i) that transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws, (ii) the prospective transferor shall have delivered to the Depositor a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-1 to this Agreement, and (iii) the prospective transferee shall have delivered to Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and the Depositor a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-2 to this Agreement. None of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Certificate Registrar is obligated to register or qualify an Excess Servicing Fee Right under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing Fee Right without registration or qualification. Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and each holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right desiring to effect a transfer, sale, pledge or other assignment of such Excess Servicing Fee Right shall, and Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association hereby agrees, and each such holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right by its acceptance of such Excess Servicing Fee Right shall be deemed to have agreed, in connection with any transfer of such Excess Servicing Fee Right effected by such Person, to indemnify the Certificateholders, the Trust, the Depositor, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Registrar and the Special Servicer against any liability that may result if such transfer is not exempt from registration and/or qualification under the Securities Act or other applicable federal and state securities laws or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws or in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph. By its acceptance of an Excess Servicing Fee Right, the holder thereof shall be deemed to have agreed not to use or disclose any information received in connection with its acquisition and holding of such Excess Servicing Fee Right in any manner that could result in a violation of any provision of the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws or that would require registration of such Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificate pursuant to the Securities Act. From time to time following any transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of an Excess Servicing Fee Right, the Person then acting as the Master Servicer shall pay, out of each amount paid to such Master Servicer as Servicing Fees with respect to each related Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, the related Excess Servicing Fees to the holder of such Excess Servicing Fee Right within one (1) Business Day following the payment of such Servicing Fees to the Master Servicer, in each case in accordance with payment instructions provided by such holder in writing to the Master Servicer. The holder of an Excess Servicing Fee Right shall not have any rights under this Agreement except as set forth in the preceding sentences of this paragraph. None of the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian shall have any obligation whatsoever regarding payment of the Excess Servicing Fee or the assignment or transfer of the Excess Servicing Fee Right. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Master Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder, including all fees of any Sub-Servicers retained by it. The Master Servicer will not be entitled to retain any portion of Excess Interest paid on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a Serviced Loan Combination, in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (including an REO Mortgage Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), and in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. In addition, with respect to any Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, in no event shall Servicing Fees with respect to such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. This paragraph is in no way intended to limit the rights, if any, of the Master Servicer under the related Co-Lender Agreement to seek payment of unpaid Servicing Fees with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan from the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.
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:
The Backup Servicer (a) Prior to assuming any of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder the Backup Servicer shall only be required to perform those duties specifically imposed upon it by the provisions of this Agreement and the Backup Servicing Agreement, and no implied obligations shall be read into this Agreement and therein against the Backup Servicer. Such duties generally relate to following the provisions herein and therein which would permit the Backup Servicer to assume some or all of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder (as modified or limited herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement) with reasonable dispatch, following written notice. The Backup Servicer, prior to assuming any of the Servicer’s duties hereunder, may not resign hereunder unless it arranges for a successor Backup Servicer reasonably acceptable to the Servicer and the Seller, with not less than thirty (30) days’ notice delivered to the Servicer and the Seller. The Backup Servicer shall have no obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party, including but not limited to the various agreements named herein.
