Interest Reserve Account The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Interest Reserve Account in the Certificate Administrator’s name, on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Interest Reserve Account shall be established and maintained as a non-interest bearing Eligible Account. On each Master Servicer Remittance Date occurring in January (except during a leap year) or February (commencing in 2018) (unless, in either such case, the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Master Servicer shall remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, in respect of all the Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the related month, an amount equal to one day’s interest at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage Loan as of the close of business on the Distribution Date in the month preceding the month in which such Master Servicer Remittance Date occurs, to the extent a Monthly Payment or P&I Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive January (if applicable) and February, “Withheld Amounts”). On or prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date in March (or February if the final Distribution Date occurs in such month) of each calendar year (commencing in 2018), the Certificate Administrator shall transfer to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account the aggregate of all Withheld Amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.
Disbursements from Replacement Reserve Account (a) Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to pay Borrower only for the costs of the Replacements. Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to reimburse Borrower for the costs of routine maintenance to the Property or for costs which are to be reimbursed from the Required Repair Fund (if any).
(b) Lender shall, upon written request from Borrower and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 7.3.2, disburse to Borrower amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account necessary to pay for the actual approved costs of Replacements or to reimburse Borrower therefor, upon completion of such Replacements (or, upon partial completion in the case of Replacements made pursuant to Section 7.3.2(f)) as determined by Lender. In no event shall Lender be obligated to disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve Account if a Default or an Event of Default exists.
(c) Each request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account shall be in a form specified or approved by Lender and shall specify (i) the specific Replacements for which the disbursement is requested, (ii) the quantity and price of each item purchased, if the Replacement includes the purchase or replacement of specific items, (iii) the price of all materials (grouped by type or category) used in any Replacement other than the purchase or replacement of specific items, and (iv) the cost of all contracted labor or other services applicable to each Replacement for which such request for disbursement is made. With each request Borrower shall certify that all Replacements have been made in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Property to which the Replacements are being provided and, unless Lender has agreed to issue joint checks as described below, each request shall include evidence of payment of all such amounts. Each request for disbursement shall include copies of invoices for all items or materials purchased and all contracted labor or services provided. Except as provided in Section 7.3.2(e), each request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account shall be made only after completion of the Replacement for which disbursement is requested. Borrower shall provide Lender evidence of completion satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable judgment.
(d) Borrower shall pay all invoices in connection with the Replacements with respect to which a disbursement is requested prior to submitting such request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account or, at the request of Borrower, Lender will issue joint checks, payable to Borrower and the contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic, subcontractor or other party to whom payment is due in connection with a Replacement. In the case of payments made by joint check, Lender may require a waiver of lien from each Person receiving payment prior to Lender's disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account. In addition, as a condition to any disbursement, Lender may require Borrower to obtain lien waivers from each contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic or subcontractor who receives payment in an amount equal to or greater than $100,000 for completion of its work or delivery of its materials. Any lien waiver delivered hereunder shall conform to the requirements of applicable law and shall cover all work performed and materials supplied (including equipment and fixtures) for the Property by that contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the current reimbursement request (or, in the event that payment to such contractor, supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialmen is to be made by a joint check, the release of lien shall be effective through the date covered by the previous release of funds request).
(e) If (i) the cost of a Replacement exceeds $100,000, (ii) the contractor performing such Replacement requires periodic payments pursuant to terms of a written contract, and (iii) Lender has approved in writing in advance such periodic payments, a request for reimbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account may be made after completion of a portion of the work under such contract, provided (A) such contract requires payment upon completion of such portion of the work, (B) the materials for which the request is made are on site at the Property and are properly secured or have been installed in the Property, (C) all other conditions in this Agreement for disbursement have been satisfied, (D) funds remaining in the Replacement Reserve Account are, in Lender's judgment, sufficient to complete such Replacement and other Replacements when required, and (E) if required by Lender, each contractor or subcontractor receiving payments under such contract shall provide a waiver of lien with respect to amounts which have been paid to that contractor or subcontractor.
(f) Borrower shall not make a request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account more frequently than once in any calendar month and (except in connection with the final disbursement) the total cost of all Replacements in any request shall not be less than $5,000.00.
Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate Account; Distribution Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage servicers to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer cannot extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. The Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Certificate Account. The Certificate Account shall consist of two separate subaccounts, each of which shall relate to a particular Mortgage Pool. No later than two Business Days after receipt, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Master Servicer shall deposit or shall cause to be deposited into the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect of the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due on such Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the following amounts required to be deposited hereunder:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool, including Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool, net of the related Master Servicing Fee, any Prepayment Interest Excess and, for so long as First Horizon is the Master Servicer, any Retained Yield;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds in respect of the related Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool, other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures;
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer in respect of the related Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section 3.5(c) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer in respect of the related Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section 3.9(b), 3.9(d), and in respect of net monthly rental income from any related REO Property pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof;
(vi) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts in respect of the related Mortgage Pool;
(vii) all Advances in respect of the related Mortgage Pool made by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.1; and
(viii) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder in respect of the related Mortgage Pool. In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to a buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in addition to the monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall cause funds to be deposited into the applicable subaccount of the Certificate Account in an amount required to cause an amount of interest to be paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan equal to the amount of interest that has accrued on such Mortgage Loan from the preceding Due Date at the related Adjusted Mortgage Rate on such date. The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of prepayment penalties, late payment charges, assumption fees or amounts attributable to reimbursements of Advances, if collected, need not be remitted by the Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time withdraw or direct the institution maintaining the Certificate Account to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee or such other institution maintaining the Certificate Account which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.8.
(c) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Distribution Account shall consist of two separate subaccounts, each of which shall relate to a particular Mortgage Pool. The Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in respect of a Mortgage Pool pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(ix);
(ii) any amount deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.5(c) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments; and
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be deposited in the Distribution Account. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw such amount from the applicable subaccount of the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering an Officer's Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the related Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.8. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Master Servicer.
(iv) The institutions at which the Certificate Account and the Distribution Account are maintained shall invest funds as directed by the Master Servicer in Permitted Investments which in both cases shall mature not later than (i) in the case of the Certificate Account, the second Business Day next preceding the related Distribution Account Deposit Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than the Business Day next preceding such Distribution Account Deposit Date) and (ii) in the case of the Distribution Account, the Business Day next preceding the Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such fund or account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and gain net of any losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Certificate Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as servicing compensation and all income and gain net of any losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Trustee. The amount of any Realized Losses in the Certificate Account in respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Certificate Account and the amount of any Realized Losses in the Distribution Account in respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Trustee into the Distribution Account. All reinvestment income earned on amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Trustee. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment or lack of investment of funds held in the Certificate Account and made in accordance with this Section 3.5.
(v) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to the Master Servicer, the Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Distribution Account prior to any change thereof.
Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to Custodial Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such waiver or extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not enforce any prepayment charge to the extent that such enforcement would violate any applicable law. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; provided, however, that no such extension shall be made if any such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer's determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action); provided, however, that the Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify any Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any modification that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or except in connection with prepayments to the extent that such reamortization is not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable; provided, further, that (1) no such modification shall reduce the interest rate on a Mortgage Loan below one-half of the Mortgage Rate as in effect on the Cut-off Date, but not less than the sum of the rates at which the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan accrues plus the rate at which the premium paid to the Certificate Insurer, if any, accrues, (2) the final maturity date for any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended beyond the Maturity Date, (3) the Stated Principal Balance of all Reportable Modified Mortgage Loans subject to Servicing Modifications (measured at the time of the Servicing Modification and after giving effect to any Servicing Modification) can be no more than five percent of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, unless such limit is increased from time to time with the consent of the Rating Agencies and the Certificate Insurer, if any. In addition, any amounts owing on a Mortgage Loan added to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan must be fully amortized over the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, and such amounts may be added to the outstanding principal balance of a Mortgage Loan only once during the life of such Mortgage Loan. Also, the addition of such amounts described in the preceding sentence shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide and may be implemented only by Subservicers that have been approved by the Master Servicer for such purpose. In connection with any Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may permit the Mortgage Loan to be reamortized such that the Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining Stated Principal Balance thereof by the original Maturity Date based on the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such re-amortization shall not be permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax purposes, except if such reissuance is described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(b)(3).
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date):
(i) All payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the principal component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(ii) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate on the Mortgage Loans, including Buydown Funds, if any, and the interest component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(iii) Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation Proceeds (net of any related expenses of the Subservicer);
(iv) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07 (including amounts received from Residential Funding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or expense that resulted from a breach of the Compliance With Laws Representation and all amounts required to be deposited in connection with the substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.04;
(v) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c) or 3.21;
(vi) All amounts transferred from the Certificate Account to the Custodial Account in accordance with Section 4.02(a);
(vii) Any amounts realized by the Subservicer and received by the Master Servicer in respect of any Additional Collateral; and
(viii) Any amounts received by the Master Servicer in respect of Pledged Assets. 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 on the Mortgage Loans which are not part of the Trust Fund (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date) and payments or collections in the nature of prepayment charges or late payment charges or assumption fees may but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account. In the event any amount not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account is so deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw such amount from the Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or more trust funds created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series and may contain other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to the Master Servicer or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others. Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Master Servicer shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Custodial Account that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans. With respect to Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received in any calendar month, the Master Servicer may elect to treat such amounts as included in the Available Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of receipt, but is not obligated to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such amounts will be deemed to have been received (and any related Realized Loss shall be deemed to have occurred) on the last day of the month prior to the receipt thereof.
(c) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the Custodial Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted Investments which shall mature not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next following the date of such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for Future Distribution) and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturities. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments attributable to the investment of amounts in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized without any right of reimbursement.
(d) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the Company of any change in the location of the Custodial Account and the location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof.
Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account (a) The Master Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in Section 4.04:
(i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);
(ii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Master Servicer for (a) any unreimbursed Advances to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees) of Monthly Payments, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds on Mortgage Loans with respect to which such Advances were made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04; (b) any unreimbursed Advances with respect to the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan that are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer for such unreimbursed Advances; or (c) subject to Section 4.04(b), any unreimbursed Advances to the extent of funds held in the Collection Account for future distribution that were not included in Available Funds for the preceding Distribution Date;
(iii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer (a) any unpaid Servicing Fees, (b) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and condemnation proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and (c) any Servicing Advances with respect to the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan that are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for Servicing Advances;
(iv) to pay to the Master Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account;
(v) to pay to the Originator, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be;
(vi) to reimburse the Master Servicer for any Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which the Master Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04;
(vii) to pay, or to reimburse the Master Servicer for Servicing Advances in respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(b);
(viii) to reimburse the Master Servicer for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 6.03;
(ix) to reimburse the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer is not an Affiliate of the Originator) or the Trustee, as the case may be, for enforcement expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation;
Certificate Account and Special Payments Account (a) The Trustee shall establish and maintain on behalf of the Certificateholders a Certificate Account as one or more non-interest-bearing accounts. The Trustee shall hold the Certificate Account in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, and shall make or permit withdrawals therefrom only as provided in this Agreement. On each day when a Scheduled Payment is made to the Trustee under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee upon receipt thereof shall immediately deposit the aggregate amount of such Scheduled Payment in the Certificate Account.
(b) The Trustee shall establish and maintain on behalf of the Certificateholders a Special Payments Account as one or more accounts, which shall be non-interest bearing except as provided in Section 4.
Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account (a) The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account and any REO Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”), and the Trustee, in its individual capacity, may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, the Distribution Account is also an “Investment Account”), to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee is the obligor thereon and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such), or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account and any REO Account and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Trustee shall:
Debt Service Reserve Account Borrower shall fund and maintain a debt service reserve in the Debt Service Reserve Account, in an amount equal to twelve (12) monthly payments of principal and interest on the Term Loan as determined from time to time by the Lender (the “Debt Service Reserve Amount”). Beginning with the first fiscal year end after the Effective Date, and at each fiscal year end thereafter, until such time as the balance in the Debt Service Reserve Account is equal to or greater than the Debt Service Reserve Amount, one hundred percent (100%) of Excess Cash Flow shall be deposited in the Debt Service Reserve Account by Borrower within 120 days of each fiscal year end. The balance held in the Debt Service Reserve Account shall earn interest at the rate determined by the Lender from time to time. If at any time after the Debt Service Reserve Amount has been fully funded by the Borrower the balance in the Debt Service Reserve Account is less than sixty-seven percent (67.0%) of the applicable Debt Service Reserve Amount, the Borrower shall, within sixty (60) days after receipt of notice from the Lender as provided herein, deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account an amount sufficient to restore the balance in the Debt Service Reserve Account to an amount not less than the Debt Service Reserve Amount; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to make a deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account to the extent that such a deposit would exceed one hundred percent (100%) of Excess Cash Flow, calculated based upon unaudited monthly financial statements required by Section 5.01(c)(ii) of this Agreement for the month ending immediately prior to receipt of notice from the Lender. In the event that Borrower is not required to fully restore the balance in the Debt Service Reserve Account pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Borrower shall at the earliest possible date thereafter, to the extent of Excess Cash Flow determined on unaudited monthly financial statements required by Section 5.01(c)(ii) of this Agreement or audited financial statements required by Section 5.01(c)(i) of this Agreement, as applicable, deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account such additional amounts as will restore the balance in the Debt Service Reserve Account to an amount not less than the Debt Service Reserve Amount. As and when any of the Loan Obligations are past due, after any applicable grace periods have expired, under any Loan Document, Lender, in its sole discretion, may withdraw from the Debt Service Reserve Account the amount of the then past due Loan Obligations and apply such amounts to the payment of the past due Loan Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Documents, the Lender may, after any applicable grace periods have expired, withdraw amounts in the Debt Service Reserve Account, in its sole discretion, and apply such amounts to the payment of the Loan Obligations in such order and manner as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Withdrawals by the Lender of any amounts from the Debt Service Reserve Account to pay any Loan Obligations as provided in this Section 2.14 may be made without the requirement of any consent by or notice to the Borrower, provided that Lender shall provide to Borrower notice that such withdrawal was made within a reasonable time thereafter. Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that its obligation to pay the Loan Obligations are absolute and unconditional and it is not dependent upon sufficient deposits in the Debt Service Reserve Account being available to make payment on any Loan Obligations, and nothing herein shall be construed to negate or modify the Borrower’s absolute and unconditional obligation to pay the Loan Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents. Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender any and all deposit account control agreements the Lender may reasonably request in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, and take all actions and deliver all documents the Lender may reasonably request or require to perfect the Lender’s security interest in the Debt Service Reserve Account, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.
Withdrawals from the Collection Account The Servicer shall, from time to time as provided herein, make withdrawals from the Collection Account of amounts on deposit therein pursuant to Section 3.02 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for the following purposes:
(i) to deposit in the Distribution Account, on the Business Day prior to each Payment Date, an amount equal to the Security Collections required to be distributed on such Payment Date;
(ii) to the extent deposited to the Collection Account, to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for previously unreimbursed expenses incurred in maintaining individual insurance policies pursuant to Section 3.04, or Liquidation Expenses, paid pursuant to Section 3.07 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement (to the extent not payable pursuant to Section 3.09), such withdrawal right being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans (other than any Repurchase Price in respect thereof) which represent late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made, or from related Liquidation Proceeds or the proceeds of the purchase of such Mortgage Loan;
(iii) to pay to itself out of each payment received on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as contemplated by Section 3.09, an amount equal to the related Servicing Fee (to the extent not retained pursuant to Section 3.02), and to pay to any Subservicer any Subservicing Fees not previously withheld by the Subservicer;
(iv) to the extent deposited in the Collection Account to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account and Payment Account that it is entitled to withdraw pursuant to Sections 3.02(b) and 5.01;
(v) to the extent deposited in the Collection Account, to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any Foreclosure Profits;
(vi) to pay to itself or the Seller, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased or otherwise transferred to the Seller, the Servicer or other entity, all amounts received thereon and not required to be distributed to Securityholders as of the date on which the related Purchase Price or Repurchase Price is determined;
(vii) to withdraw any other amount deposited in the Collection Account that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02;
(viii) to pay to the Seller the amount, if any, deposited in the Collection Account by the Indenture Trustee upon release thereof from the Funding Account representing payments for Additional Loans; and
(ix) after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to pay to the Seller, the Excluded Amount. Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv), (vi) and (vii), the Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to such clauses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself for any previously unreimbursed expenses incurred pursuant to Section 3.07 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement that the Servicer determines to be otherwise nonrecoverable (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Repurchase Price has been paid), by withdrawal from the Collection Account of amounts on deposit therein attributable to the Mortgage Loans on any Business Day prior to the Payment Date succeeding the date of such determination.

There shall be so distributed to each Receiptholder of record in the Register on the 15th day (whether or not a Business Day) preceding such Interest Payment Date by check mailed to such Receiptholder, at the address appearing in the Register, such Receiptholder’s pro rata share (based on the Escrow Interest in the Account Amounts held by such Receiptholder) of the total amount of interest deposited by the Depositary in the Paying Agent Account on such date, except that, with respect to Escrow Receipts registered on the record date specified above in the name of a nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), such distribution shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by DTC.
(b) Upon the confirmation by the Paying Agent of receipt in the Paying Agent Account from the Depositary of any amount in respect of any Final Withdrawal or any Event of Loss Withdrawal, the Paying Agent shall forthwith distribute the entire amount of the Final Withdrawal or such Event of Loss Withdrawal deposited therein by the Depositary. There shall be so distributed to each Receiptholder of record on the 15th day (whether or not a Business Day) preceding the Final Withdrawal Date or the Event of Loss Withdrawal Date, as applicable, by check mailed to such Receiptholder, at the address appearing in the Register, such Receiptholder’s pro rata share (based on the Escrow Interest in the Account Amounts held by such Receiptholder) of the total amount in the Paying Agent Account on account of such Final Withdrawal or such Event of Loss Withdrawal, except that, with respect to Escrow Receipts registered on the record date specified above in the name of a nominee of DTC, such distribution shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by DTC.
(c) Upon the confirmation by the Paying Agent of receipt in the Paying Agent Account from the Depositary of any amount referred to in clause (y) of Section 1.02(d)(X) in respect of the Replacement Withdrawal, on the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute out of the Paying Agent Account the entire such amount deposited therein by the Depositary.

(d) If any payment of interest referred to in Section 2.03(a) or of interest or principal in respect of any Final Withdrawal, any Replacement Withdrawal or any Event of Loss Withdrawal is not received by the Paying Agent within five days of the applicable date when due, then it shall be distributed to Receiptholders after actual receipt by the Paying Agent on the same basis as a Special Payment is distributed under the Pass Through Trust Agreement.
(e) The Paying Agent shall include with any check mailed pursuant to this Section 2.03 any notice required to be distributed under the Pass Through Trust Agreement that is furnished to the Paying Agent by the Pass Through Trustee.
