Determination of Monthly Interest (a) The amount of monthly interest ("Class A Monthly Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class A Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the Class A Certificate Rate for such Distribution Date and (iii) the outstanding principal balance of the Class A Certificates as of close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date. On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the "Class A Interest Shortfall"), of (x) the Class A Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Class A Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Class A Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Class A Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount ("Class A Additional Interest") equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the sum of (x) the Class A Certificate Rate and (y) 2.0% per annum and (iii) such Class A Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class A Certificateholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class A Certificates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class A Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class A Certificateholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(b) The amount of monthly interest ("Class B Monthly Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Class B Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the Class B Certificate Rate for such Distribution Date and (iii) the Class B Invested Amount as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date. On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine the excess, if any (the "Class B Interest Shortfall"), of (x) the Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Class B Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Class B Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Class B Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount ("Class B Additional Interest") equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (ii) the sum of (x) the Class B Certificate Rate and (y) 2.0% per annum and (iii) such Class B Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Class B Certificateholders) shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Class B Certificates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Class B Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Class B Certificateholders only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(c) The amount of monthly interest ("Collateral Monthly Interest") distributable from the Collection Account with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount on any Distribution Date shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (B) the Collateral Rate in effect with respect to the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or in the case of the first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) the Collateral Invested Amount as of the close of business on the last day of the preceding Monthly Period; provided, however, with respect to the first Distribution Date, Collateral Monthly Interest shall be equal to the interest accrued on the Collateral Initial Invested Amount at the Collateral Rate for the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the first Distribution Date. On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine an amount (the "Collateral Interest Shortfall") equal to (x) the aggregate Collateral Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date minus (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such Collateral Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Collateral Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero, on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Collateral Interest Shortfall is fully paid, an additional amount ("Collateral Additional Interest") shall be payable as provided herein with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount equal to the product of (i) (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is 360, (B) the Collateral Rate in effect during the period from (and including) the immediately preceding Distribution Date to (but excluding) such Distribution Date, and (ii) such Collateral Interest Shortfall (or the portion thereof which has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Collateral Additional Interest shall be payable or distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Determination of Monthly Principal (a) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Principal Account with respect to the Class A Certificates on each Transfer Date ("Class A Monthly Principal"), beginning with the Transfer Date in the month following the month in which the Controlled Accumulation Period or, if earlier, the Rapid Accumulation Period or the Rapid Amortization Period begins, shall be equal to the least of (i) the Available Investor Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Account with respect to such Transfer Date, (ii) for each Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Transfer Date and (iii) the Class A Adjusted Investor Interest (after taking into account any adjustments to be made on such Transfer Date pursuant to Section 4.10) prior to any deposit into the Principal Funding Account on such Transfer Date.
(b) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Principal Account with respect to the Class B Certificates on each Transfer Date (the "Class B Monthly Principal"), with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period or the Rapid Accumulation Period, beginning with the Transfer Date on which an amount equal to the Class A Investor Interest has been deposited in the Principal Funding Account (after taking into account any deposits to be made on such Transfer Date), or during the Rapid Amortization Period, beginning with the Transfer Date immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Class A Investor Interest will be paid in full (after taking into account payments to be made on the related Distribution Date), shall be an amount equal to the least of (i) the Available Investor Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Account with respect to such Transfer Date (minus the portion of such Available Investor Principal Collections applied to Class A Monthly Principal on such Transfer Date), (ii) for each Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Transfer Date (minus the Class A Monthly Principal with respect to such Transfer Date) and (iii) the Class B Adjusted Investor Interest (after taking into account any adjustments to be made on such Transfer Date pursuant to Sections 4.10 and 4.12) prior to any deposit into the Principal Funding Account on such Transfer Date.
(c) The amount of monthly principal distributable from the Principal Account with respect to the Collateral Interest on each Transfer Date (the "Collateral Monthly Principal"), with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, beginning with the Transfer Date on which an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Class A Investor Interest and (ii) the Class B Investor Interest has been deposited in the Principal Funding Account (after taking into account any deposits to be made on such Transfer Date), or during the Rapid Accumulation Period or the Rapid Amortization Period, beginning with the Transfer Date immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Class B Investor Interest will be paid in full (after taking into account payments to be made on the related Distribution Date), shall be an amount equal to the least of (i) the Available Investor Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Account with respect to such Transfer Date (minus the portion of such Available Investor Principal Collections applied to Class A Monthly Principal and Class B Monthly Principal on such Transfer Date), (ii) for each Transfer Date with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the Controlled Deposit Amount for such Transfer Date (minus the Class A Monthly Principal and Class B Monthly Principal with respect to such Transfer Date) and (iii) the Collateral Interest Adjusted Amount (after taking into account any adjustments to be made on such Transfer Date pursuant to Sections 4.10 and 4.12) prior to any deposit into the Principal Funding Account on such Transfer Date.
Designation of Additional Amounts to Be Included in the Excess Spread Amount for the DiscoverSeries Notes At any time that any outstanding Series of certificates issued by the Master Trust provides that the Series Principal Collections allocated to such Series will be deposited into the Group Finance Charge Collections Reallocation Account for the Master Trust to the extent necessary for application to cover shortfalls for other Series issued by the Master Trust, an amount equal to (x) all Series Principal Collections allocated to such Series, multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Nominal Liquidation Amounts for each outstanding Tranche of the DiscoverSeries Notes (including these notes) and the denominator of which is (i) the Aggregate Investor Interest for the Master Trust minus (ii) the sum of the Series Investor Interests for all such Series that provide that the Series Principal Collections allocated to such Series will be so deposited, is hereby designated to be included in the Excess Spread Amount and shall be treated as Series Finance Charge Amounts for the DiscoverSeries.
Determination of Pass-Through Rates for LIBOR Certificates (a) On each Interest Determination Date so long as any LIBOR Certificates are outstanding, the Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of the British Bankers' Association ("BBA") "Interest Settlement Rate" for one-month deposits in U.S. dollars as found on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. London time on each LIBOR Determination Date. "Telerate Page 3750" means the display page currently so designated on the Moneyline Telerate Service (formerly the Dow Jones Markets) (or such other pagx xx may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying comparable rates or prices).
Determination of Pass-Through Rates for COFI Certificates The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of COFI Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period after the initial Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee as provided below on the basis of the Index and the applicable formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the COFI Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. Except as provided below, with respect to each Interest Accrual Period following the initial Interest Accrual Period, the Trustee shall not later than two Business Days prior to such Interest Accrual Period but following the publication of the applicable Index determine the Pass-Through Rate at which interest shall accrue in respect of the COFI Certificates during the related Interest Accrual Period. Except as provided below, the Index to be used in determining the respective Pass-Through Rates for the COFI Certificates for a particular Interest Accrual Period shall be COFI for the second calendar month preceding the Outside Reference Date for such Interest Accrual Period. If at the Outside Reference Date for any Interest Accrual Period, COFI for the second calendar month preceding such Outside Reference Date has not been published, the Trustee shall use COFI for the third calendar month preceding such Outside Reference Date. If COFI for neither the second nor third calendar months preceding any Outside Reference Date has been published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, the Index for such Interest Accrual Period and for all subsequent Interest Accrual Periods shall be the National Cost of Funds Index for the third calendar month preceding such Interest Accrual Period (or the fourth preceding calendar month if such National Cost of Funds Index for the third preceding calendar month has not been published by such Outside Reference Date). In the event that the National Cost of Funds Index for neither the third nor fourth calendar months preceding an Interest Accrual Period has been published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, then for such Interest Accrual Period and for each succeeding Interest Accrual Period, the Index shall be LIBOR, determined in the manner set forth below. With respect to any Interest Accrual Period for which the applicable Index is LIBOR, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period will be established by the Trustee on the related Interest Determination Date as provided in Section 4.08. In determining LIBOR and any Pass-Through Rate for the COFI Certificates or any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying upon the offered quotations (whether written, oral or on the Reuters Screen) from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to LIBOR or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in effect from time to time. The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of New York City banks for purposes of determining any Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks or to determine such arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section 4.07. The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the COFI Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
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.
Determination of One-Month LIBOR Pursuant to the terms of the Global Agency Agreement, the Global Agent shall calculate the Class Coupons for the applicable Classes of Notes (including MAC Notes on which the Exchange Administrator has directed the Global Agent to make payments) for each Accrual Period (after the first Accrual Period) on the applicable LIBOR Adjustment Date. U.S. dollar deposits with a maturity of one month set by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“ICE”) as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR Adjustment Date (the “ICE Method”). ICE’s Interest Settlement Rates are currently displayed on Bloomberg L.P.’s page “BBAM.” That page, or any other page that may replace page BBAM on that service or any other service that ICE nominates as the information vendor to display the ICE’s Interest Settlement Rates for deposits in U.S. dollars, is a “Designated Page.” ICE’s Interest Settlement Rates currently are rounded to five decimal places. If ICE’s Interest Settlement Rate does not appear on the Designated Page as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on a LIBOR Adjustment Date, or if the Designated Page is not then available, One-Month LIBOR for that date will be the most recently published Interest Settlement Rate. If ICE no longer sets an Interest Settlement Rate, Xxxxxxx Mac will designate an alternative index that has performed, or that Xxxxxxx Mac (or its agent) expects to perform, in a manner substantially similar to ICE’s Interest Settlement Rate.
Certificates Issuable in Classes; Distributions of Principal and Interest; Authorized Denominations The aggregate principal amount of the Certificates that may be authenticated and delivered under this Agreement is limited to the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date, as specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement, except for Certificates authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03. Such aggregate principal amount shall be allocated among one or more Classes having designations, types of interests, initial per annum Certificate Interest Rates, initial Class Principal Balances and Final Maturity Dates as specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement. The aggregate Percentage Interest of each Class of Certificates of which the Class Principal Balance equals zero as of the Cut-Off Date that may be authenticated and delivered under this Agreement is limited to 100%. Certificates shall be issued in Authorized Denominations.
Determination of Rate of Interest and calculation of Interest Amounts The Principal Paying Agent, in the case of Floating Rate Notes, and the Calculation Agent, in the case of Index Linked Interest Notes, will at or as soon as practicable after each time at which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, determine the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period. In the case of Index Linked Interest Notes, the Calculation Agent will notify the Principal Paying Agent of the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period as soon as practicable after calculating the same. The Principal Paying Agent will calculate the amount of interest (the “Interest Amount”) payable on the Floating Rate Notes or Index Linked Interest Notes for the relevant Interest Period by applying the Rate of Interest to:
(i) in the case of Floating Rate Notes or Index Linked Interest Notes which are represented by a Global Note, the aggregate outstanding nominal amount of the Notes represented by such Global Note (or, if they are Partly Paid Notes, the aggregate amount paid up); or
(ii) in the case of Floating Rate Notes or Index Linked Interest Notes in definitive form, the Calculation Amount; and, in each case, multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction, and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. Where the Specified Denomination of a Floating Rate Note or an Index Linked Interest Note in definitive form is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the Interest Amount payable in respect of such Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for each Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination without any further rounding.
Determination of Amount Outstanding On each Quarterly Date and, in addition, promptly upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Currency Valuation Notice (as defined below), the Administrative Agent shall determine the aggregate Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposure. For the purpose of this determination, the outstanding principal amount of any Loan that is denominated in any Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount in the Foreign Currency of such Loan, determined as of such Quarterly Date or, in the case of a Currency Valuation Notice received by the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, on such Business Day or, in the case of a Currency Valuation Notice otherwise received, on the first Business Day after such Currency Valuation Notice is received. Upon making such determination, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Multicurrency Lenders and the Borrower thereof.
