Securities Contract; Swap Agreement The parties hereto intend for (i) the Transaction to be a “securities contract” and a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e), 546(g), 555 and 560 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a party’s right to liquidate the Transaction and to exercise any other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Agreement with respect to the other party to constitute a “contractual right” as described in the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) each payment and delivery of cash, securities or other property hereunder to constitute a “margin payment” or “settlement payment” and a “transfer” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code.
Swap Agreement The Depositor hereby directs the Securities Administrator to execute and deliver on behalf of the Trust the Swap Agreement and authorizes the Securities Administrator to perform its obligations thereunder on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust in accordance with the terms of the Swap Agreement. The Depositor hereby authorizes and directs the Securities Administrator to ratify on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, as the Supplemental Interest Trust’s own actions, the terms agreed to by the Depositor in relation to the Swap Agreement, as reflected in the Swap Agreement, and the Securities Administrator hereby so ratifies the Swap Agreement. If based upon a notice from the valuation agent pursuant to section 4(c) of the credit support annex, the Securities Administrator determines that a delivery amount exists, then the Securities Administrator shall demand such amount pursuant to section 3(a) of the credit support annex. The Securities Administrator shall amend the Swap Agreement in accordance with its terms and as requested in writing by a party to the Swap Agreement to cure any ambiguity in or correct or supplement any provision of, the Swap Agreement; provided, however, that any such amendment will not have a material adverse effect to a Certificateholder as evidenced by a written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment would not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any outstanding Class of Certificates. The Swap Agreement shall not part of any REMIC. The Swap Provider is the calculation agent under the Swap Agreement and shall calculate all amounts pursuant to the Swap Agreement and notify the Securities Administrator of all such amounts. The Depositor hereby directs the Securities Administrator to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Agreement on the Closing Date and thereafter on behalf of the Holders of the Offered Certificates and the Class M-10 and Class M-11 Certificates. The Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Holders of the Offered Certificates and the Class M-10 and Class M-11 Certificates by their acceptance of such Certificates acknowledge and agree that the Securities Administrator shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Agreement and shall do so solely in its capacity as Securities Administrator of the Supplemental Interest Trust and not in its individual capacity. The Depositor hereby instructs the Securities Administrator to make any and all demands for Eligible Collateral (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) under the Swap Agreement from the Swap Provider in satisfaction of the Delivery Amount (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) requirement. The Depositor hereby instructs the Securities Administrator to deliver notice to the Swap Provider upon any failure of the Swap Provider to transfer the Delivery Amount (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) pursuant to an Approved Credit Support Document (as defined in the Swap Agreement).
Swap Agreements The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Swap Agreement, except (a) Swap Agreements entered into to hedge or mitigate risks to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary has actual exposure (other than those in respect of Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), and (b) Swap Agreements entered into in order to effectively cap, collar or exchange interest rates (from fixed to floating rates, from one floating rate to another floating rate or otherwise) with respect to any interest-bearing liability or investment of the Borrower or any Subsidiary.
Swap Contracts In the event that Borrower shall elect to enter into a Swap Contract with Swap Counterparty, Borrower shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of Schedule 7 with respect to all Swap Contracts.
Tax Treatment of Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments For federal income tax purposes, each holder of a Floating Rate Certificate is deemed to own an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a REMIC regular interest and the right to receive payments from either the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account or the Swap Account in respect of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount or the obligation to make payments to the Swap Account. For federal income tax purposes, the Trust Administrator will account for payments to each Floating Rate Certificates as follows: each Floating Rate Certificate will be treated as receiving their entire payment from REMIC III (regardless of any Swap Termination Payment or obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) and subsequently paying their portion of any Swap Termination Payment in respect of each such Class’ obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. In the event that any such Class is resecuritized in a REMIC, the obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to pay any such Swap Termination Payment (or any shortfall in Swap Provider Fee), will be made by one or more of the REMIC Regular Interests issued by the resecuritization REMIC subsequent to such REMIC Regular Interest receiving its full payment from any such Floating Rate Certificate. The REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Floating Rate Certificate will be entitled to receive interest and principal payments at the times and in the amounts equal to those made on the certificate to which it corresponds, except that (i) the maximum interest rate of that REMIC regular interest will equal the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate computed for this purpose by limiting the Swap Notional Amount of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (ii) any Swap Termination Payment will be treated as being payable solely from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow. As a result of the foregoing, the amount of distributions and taxable income on the REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Floating Rate Certificate may exceed the actual amount of distributions on the Floating Rate Certificate.
Interest Rate Cap Agreement (a) Prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing Date, Borrower shall have obtained the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. The Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be maintained throughout the term of the Loan with an Acceptable Counterparty. If, at any time, the interest rate cap provider ceases to be an Acceptable Counterparty, Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement at Borrower’s sole cost and expense within ten (10) days of receipt of notice from Lender that the interest rate cap provider is no longer an Acceptable Counterparty. (b) Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender pursuant to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and shall deliver to Lender counterparts of such Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement executed by Borrower and the Acceptable Counterparty and notify the Acceptable Counterparty of such collateral assignment (either in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or by separate instrument). At such time as the Loan is repaid in full, all of Lender’s right, title and interest in the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall execute and deliver at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such documents as may be required to evidence Lender’s release of the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement and to notify the Acceptable Counterparty of such release. (c) Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. All amounts paid by the Acceptable Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Borrower or Lender shall be deposited immediately into an account designated by Lender. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Acceptable Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder. (d) In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Lender the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement as and when required hereunder, or fails to maintain such agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Lender may purchase the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, as applicable, and the cost incurred by Lender in purchasing the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, as applicable, shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Lender until such cost is reimbursed by Borrower to Lender. (e) In connection with the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and any Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall, within a reasonable period of time after the effectiveness of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, obtain and deliver to Lender (1) a confirmation evidencing such Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, (2) any guaranty or guaranties therefor, (3) executed counterparts to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Cap Agreement, and (4) an opinion from counsel (which counsel may be in house counsel for the Acceptable Counterparty) for the Acceptable Counterparty (upon which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that: (i) the Acceptable Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or the Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, as applicable; (ii) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or the Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, as applicable, by the Acceptable Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by laws (or equivalent organizational documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or its property; (iii) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and delivery by the Acceptable Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or the Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, as applicable, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and (iv) the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or the Replacement Interest Cap Agreement, as applicable, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, has been duly executed and delivered by the Acceptable Counterparty and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Acceptable Counterparty, enforceable against the Acceptable Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law). (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.24 or elsewhere in this Agreement, if, at any time, Lender converts the Loan from a LIBOR Rate Loan to either a Base Rate Loan or an Alternate Rate Loan in accordance with Section 2.4 above (each, a “LIBOR Conversion”), then within thirty (30) days after such LIBOR Conversion, Borrower shall either (A) enter into, make all payments under, and satisfy all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of, a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement (and in connection therewith, but not prior to Borrower taking all the actions described in this clause (f), Borrower shall have the right to terminate any then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement) or (B) cause the then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement to be modified such that such then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement satisfies the requirements of a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement as set forth below in the definition thereof (a “Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement”).
Collateral Matters; Swap Agreements The benefit of the Security Instruments and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to any collateral securing the Indebtedness shall also extend to and be available to those Lenders or their Affiliates which are counterparties to any Swap Agreement with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries on a pro rata basis in respect of any obligations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which arise under any such Swap Agreement while such Person or its Affiliate is a Lender, but only while such Person or its Affiliate is a Lender, including any Swap Agreements between such Persons in existence prior to the date hereof. No Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such Swap Agreements.

Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (a) No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself, as agent for the Trustee, a separate, segregated trust account titled, "Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, [_______________], as Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of [_______________], New Century Home Equity Loan Trust, Series 200_-__, Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificates." The amount on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will consist of any amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4). All amounts deposited in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the Offered Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 4.01(a)(4). (b) On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount payable to the Offered Certificates, the Trustee has been directed by the Class CE-1 Certificateholders to, and therefore will, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described in Section 4.01(a)(4), rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE-1 Certificateholders. On each such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall hold all such amounts for the benefit of the Holders of the Offered Certificates, and will distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Offered Certificates in the amounts and priorities set forth in Section 4.01(a). On each Distribution Date, any amounts remaining in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account after the payment of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts on the Offered Certificates for such Distribution Date, shall be payable to the Trustee. (c) For federal and state income tax purposes, the Class CE-1 Certificateholders will be deemed to be the owners of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account and all amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC III to the Holders of the Class CE-1 Interset and by the Class CE-1 Interest to the Class CE-1 Certificates. Upon the termination of the Trust Fund, or the payment in full of the Offered Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust Fund and distributed to the Class CE-1 Certificateholders or their designees. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be part of the Trust Fund but not part of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Offered Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect to a "regular interest" in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).
