Administration and Servicing of Receivables Prior to the Certificate Trust Termination Date, the Receivables shall be serviced as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and this Article III shall have no effect. On and after the Certificate Trust Termination Date:
Collection of Receivable Payments; Modifications of Receivables (a) Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due, and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to all comparable motor vehicle receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer is authorized in its discretion to waive any prepayment charge, late payment charge or any other similar fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing any Receivable.
(b) Subject to Section 4.06, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates, deferrals, amendments, modifications or adjustments on a Receivable in accordance with its customary servicing practices; provided, however, that if the Servicer (i) extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond the last day of the Collection Period prior to the Class C Stated Maturity Date or (ii) reduces the APR or unpaid principal balance with respect to any Receivable other than as required by applicable law, it will promptly purchase such Receivable in the manner provided in Section 4.07.
(c) The Servicer may, but is not required to, make any advances of funds or guarantees regarding collections, cash flows or distributions. Payments on the Receivables, including payoffs made in accordance with the related documentation for such Receivables, shall be posted to the Servicer’s Obligor records in accordance with the principal, interest or other items in accordance with the related documentation for such Receivables.
(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.02(b), the Servicer and its Affiliates may engage in any marketing practice or promotion or any sale of any products, goods or services to Obligors with respect to the Receivables so long as such practices, promotions or sales are offered to obligors of comparable motor vehicle receivables serviced by the Servicer for itself and others, whether or not such practices, promotions or sales might result in a decrease in the aggregate amount of payments on the Receivables, prepayments or faster or slower timing of the payment of the Receivables.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may refinance any Receivable and deposit the full Principal Balance of such Receivable into the Collection Account. The receivable created by such refinancing shall not be property of the Issuer. The Servicer and its Affiliates may also sell insurance or debt cancellation products, including products which result in the cancellation of some or all of the amount of a Receivable upon the death or disability of the Obligor or any casualty with respect to the Financed Vehicle.
(f) Records documenting collection efforts shall be maintained during the period a Receivable is delinquent in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. Such records shall be maintained on at least a periodic basis that is not less frequent than as set forth in the Credit and Collection Policy, and describe the entity’s activities in monitoring delinquent pool assets including, for example, phone calls, letters and payment rescheduling plans in cases where delinquency is deemed temporary (e.g., illness or unemployment) in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.
Servicing of Receivables The Master Servicer shall service the Receivables as required by the terms of this Agreement and in material compliance with its standard and customary procedures for servicing all its other comparable motor vehicle receivables and in compliance with applicable law; and
Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables (a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as expressly provided in this Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or such other instrument or agreement.
(b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer and the Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture.
(c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the Basic Documents and in the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including but not limited to filing or causing to be filed all UCC financing statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein. Except as otherwise expressly provided therein, the Issuer shall not waive, amend, modify, supplement or terminate any Basic Document or any provision thereof without the consent of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.
(d) If the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of a Servicer Default under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies thereof, and shall specify in such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking with respect to such default. If a Servicer Default shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure.
(e) As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer"), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer. The Indenture Trustee may resign as the Servicer by giving written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and in such event will be released from such duties and obligations, such release not to be effective until the date a new servicer enters into a servicing agreement with the Issuer as provided below. Upon delivery of any such notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall obtain a new servicer as the Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Any Successor Servicer other than the Indenture Trustee shall (i) be an established financial institution having a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of Contracts and (ii) enter into a servicing agreement with the Issuer having substantially the same provisions as the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement applicable to the Servicer. If within 30 days after the delivery of the notice referred to above, the Issuer shall not have obtained such a new servicer, the Indenture Trustee may appoint, or may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Successor Servicer. In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor as it and such successor shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and in accordance with Section 8.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such successor for the servicing of the Receivables (such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee). If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI hereof shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Servicer and the servicing of the Receivables. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become successor to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint as Servicer any one of its affiliates, provided that it shall be fully liable for the actions and omissions of such affiliate in such capacity as Successor Servicer.
(f) Upon any termination of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee. As soon as a Successor Servicer is appointed, the Issuer shall notify the Indenture Trustee of such appointment, specifying in such notice the name and address of such Successor Servicer.
(g) Without derogating from the absolute nature of the assignment granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the rights of the Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Issuer agrees (i) that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of at least a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Notes, amend, modify, waive, supplement, terminate or surrender, or agree to any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or surrender of, the terms of any Collateral (except to the extent otherwise provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement) or the Basic Documents, or waive timely performance or observance by the Servicer or the Seller under the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and (ii) that any such amendment shall not (A) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (B) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Notes that is required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the Outstanding Notes. If any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be so consented to by the Indenture Trustee or such Holders, the Issuer agrees, promptly following a request by the Indenture Trustee to do so, to execute and deliver, in its own name and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.
Collection of Receivable Payments (a) The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due, and shall follow such collection practices, policies and procedures as it follows with respect to comparable motor vehicle related receivables that it services for itself or others in connection therewith (the “Established Collection Procedures”). The Servicer is hereby authorized to grant extensions, modifications, amendments or adjustments on a Receivable (collectively, “Receivable Modifications”) without the prior consent of the Owner of such Receivable provided that such Receivable Modifications are Permitted Modifications (as defined below). The Servicer is not authorized and may not make any Receivable Modifications unless such Receivable Modifications are Permitted Modifications. “Permitted Modifications” mean any Receivable Modifications made pursuant to the Established Collection Procedures with respect to which at least one of the following conditions has been or will be satisfied: (i) the Receivable Modifications, individually and collectively, considering all Receivable Modifications proposed to be made to such Receivable, are ministerial in nature (such as, by way of example, the change of payment dates due from an Obligor to a different day in the month, waiver of any late payment charge, or waiver of other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing the Receivable); (ii) the Servicer, in response to a request made by an Obligor and pursuant to the Established Collection Procedures, provides for extensions of payments with respect to the related Receivable to the extent that the following conditions all apply: (a) such extensions will not exceed 90 days in the aggregate during any 12-month period; (b) such extensions will not exceed 180 days in the aggregate during the life of such Receivable; and (c) the Servicer believes that such extensions are appropriate or necessary to prevent the Receivable from going into default (or where such Receivable is already in default, to prevent the Receivable from becoming further impaired); (iii) the Servicer, in response to a request made by an Obligor, provides for modifications due to a long-term hardship with respect to a Receivable to the extent that the Servicer believes such modifications are necessary to preserve the property ownership of such Receivable and to prevent such Receivable from going into default (or where such Receivable is already in default, to prevent the Receivable from becoming further impaired) and such modifications align with applicable laws and regulations; (iv) the Servicer has delivered an opinion to the Issuing Entity to the effect that such Receivable Modifications will not cause the Issuing Entity to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes; (v) the Servicer amends or otherwise modifies any Receivable such that the Amount Financed or the number of originally scheduled due dates is altered or such that the last scheduled due date occurs after the Final Scheduled Distribution Date solely if, (a) in the judgment of the Servicer, pursuant to the Established Collection Procedures, it is reasonably foreseeable that the Obligor will default (it being understood that the Servicer may proactively contact any Obligor whom the Servicer believes may be at a higher risk of a payment default under the related Receivable) and (b) the Servicer believes that such amendment or modification is appropriate or necessary to preserve the value of such Receivable and to prevent such Receivable from going into default (or, where such Receivable is already in default, to prevent such Receivable from becoming further impaired), or (vi) the Servicer amends or otherwise modifies any Receivable in accordance with or in order to comply with applicable law (including regulatory guidance, and including the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act or similar applicable state law).
Collection and Allocation of Receivable Payments The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow its Servicing Procedures. The Servicer shall allocate collections between principal and interest in accordance with its Servicing Procedures. Without limiting the generality of the preceding or Section 4.1, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates, refunds, deferrals, amendments, modifications or adjustments on a Receivable (regardless of whether or not the Receivable is a 180-Day Receivable, subject only to the following proviso) in accordance with its Servicing Procedures; provided, however, that if a Receivable is not a 180-Day Receivable and the Servicer (i) extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date or (ii) reduces the APR of a Receivable or reduces the aggregate amount of the Scheduled Payments due on any Receivable other than as required by applicable law (including the order of a court of competent jurisdiction), the Servicer may make such modifications to a Receivable but it shall promptly purchase the Receivable from the Issuing Entity in accordance with Section 4.6 (a “Modification Purchase Event”); provided, further, that the Servicer shall not make a modification described in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) that would trigger a Modification Purchase Event for the sole purpose of purchasing a Receivable from the Issuing Entity. The Servicer may, in accordance with its Servicing Procedures, waive any late payment charge or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. Subject to the proviso of the third sentence of this Section 4.2, the Servicer and its Affiliates may engage in any marketing practice or promotion or any sale of any products, goods or services to Obligors with respect to the Receivables so long as such practices, promotions or sales are offered to obligors of comparable equipment receivables serviced by the Servicer for itself or others, whether or not such practices, promotions or sales might result in a decrease in the aggregate amount of payments on the Receivables, prepayments or faster or slower timing of the payment of the Receivables. The Servicer and its Affiliates may also sell insurance or debt cancellation products, including products which result in the cancellation of some or all of the amount of a Receivable upon the death or disability of an Obligor or any casualty with respect to the Financed Equipment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer and its Affiliates may refinance any Receivable and deposit an amount equal to the Purchase Amount for such Receivable into the Collection Account. The receivable created by such refinancing shall not be property of the Issuing Entity, and related Financed Equipment and any part of the Receivables Files and other CNHCR Assets related to such Receivable shall be released to the Servicer or its Affiliate and shall no longer be subject to the terms hereof or the Indenture; provided further, that any security interests in favor of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee hereunder or under the Indenture in the related Financed Equipment and any other CNHCR Assets related to such Receivable shall be deemed released upon such deposit. The parties hereto intend that the Servicer and its Affiliates will not refinance a Receivable pursuant to this Section 4.2 in order to provide direct or indirect assurance to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Trustee, the Noteholders, or the Certificateholder, as applicable, against loss by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency (or other credit condition) of, or default by, the Obligor on, or the uncollectability of, any Receivable.
Furnishing of Information and Inspection of Receivables The Seller will furnish to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent from time to time such information with respect to the Pool Receivables as the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent may reasonably request. The Seller will, at the Seller’s expense, at any time during regular business hours with prior written notice (i) permit the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent, or their respective agents or representatives, (A) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books and records relating to the Pool Receivables or other Pool Assets and (B) to visit the offices and properties of the Seller for the purpose of examining such books and records, and to discuss matters relating to the Pool Receivables, other Pool Assets or the Seller’s performance hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party with any of the officers, directors, employees or independent public accountants of the Seller (provided that representatives of the Seller are present during such discussions) having knowledge of such matters; provided, that so long as no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing such examinations and visits shall not exceed one (1) per year and (ii) without limiting the provisions of clause (i) above, from time to time during regular business hours, at the Seller’s expense, upon reasonable prior written notice from the Administrator and the Purchaser Agents, permit certified public accountants or other auditors acceptable to the Administrator to conduct a review of its books and records with respect to the Pool Receivables; provided, that so long as no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Seller shall be required to reimburse the Administrator and Purchaser Agents for only one (1) such audit per year. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator may require examinations and audits in addition to the examinations and audits specified in clause (i) and clause (ii) above, but the expense of any such additional examination or audit shall be borne by the Administrator and not the Seller.
Administration and Servicing of Contracts 43 SECTION 3.01
Servicers to Service Mortgage Loans For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the NMC Servicer shall service and administer the NMC Mortgage Loans, the BAFSB Servicer shall service and administer the BAFSB Mortgage Loans and the BANA Servicer shall service and administer the BAFSB Mortgage Loans, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Customary Servicing Procedures, applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Notes and Mortgages. In connection with such servicing and administration, each Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration including, but not limited to, the power and authority, subject to the terms hereof, (a) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (b) to consent, with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services, to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this Agreement), (c) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loans it services, and (d) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan it services. Each Servicer shall represent and protect the interests of the Trust in the same manner as it protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan, except as provided pursuant to Section 3.21. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Servicer, in its own name or in the name of any Subservicer or the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when such Servicer or any Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services, and with respect to the related Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery by either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable such Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans it services to the extent that such Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee, upon the direction of the related Servicer, shall promptly execute such documents and deliver them to the related Servicer. In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, each Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties relating to the Mortgage Loans it services, which Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. The costs incurred by the Servicers, if any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit. The relationship of each Servicer (and of any successor to any Servicer as servicer under this Agreement) to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.
