Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts (a) If any Affected Person requests compensation under Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Affected Person or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Affected Person pursuant to Section 5.03, then such Affected Person shall (at the request of the Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking the related Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate (or cause to be assigned and delegated) such Affected Person’s rights and obligations hereunder to another office, branch or Affiliate of such Affected Person if, in the judgment of such Affected Person, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.03, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Affected Person to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Affected Person. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Affected Person in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation. (b) If (i) any Affected Person requests compensation under Section 5.01, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Affected Person or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Affected Person pursuant to Section 5.03, (iii) any Affected Person has become a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Affected Person has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that requires the consent of all Lenders and with respect to which the other Lenders shall have or would have granted their consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, require the Administrative Agent to cause the related Affected Person to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to all applicable transfer restrictions), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to another appropriate Person (which, in the case of a Lender, shall be an Eligible Assignee) that shall acquire such interest or assume such commitment; provided that (a) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such Affected Person, if a Lender, shall have received payment of an amount equal to its outstanding Capital and, if applicable, accrued Interest and Fees thereon and all other amounts then owing to it hereunder from the assignee or the Borrower, (c) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.03, such assignment is expected to result in a reduction in such compensation or payments for future periods and (d) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from the failure of an Affected Person to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and consents, the applicable amendment, waiver, discharge or termination can be effected. An Affected Person shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Affected Person or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply.
Duties of Servicer The Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuing Entity, and (to the extent provided herein) the Indenture Trustee shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, exercises with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for its Affiliates or others. The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on such Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons or statements to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions. Subject to Section 4.2, the Servicer shall follow its then current customary standards, policies and procedures (“Servicing Procedures”) in performing its duties as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or the Financed Equipment securing such Receivables. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuing Entity shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s direction (and, so long as the Servicer is NH Credit, at the Servicer’s expense), take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. The Trustee or the Indenture Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Servicer, furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.
Certain Matters Relating to the Determination of LIBOR LIBOR shall be calculated by the Securities Administrator in accordance with the definition of LIBOR. Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Securities Administrator will at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining LIBOR with respect to each LIBOR Determination Date. The Securities Administrator initially shall designate the Reference Banks (after consultation with the Depositor). Each “Reference Bank” shall be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be under common control with, the Securities Administrator and shall have an established place of business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Securities Administrator should terminate its appointment as Reference Bank, the Securities Administrator shall promptly appoint or cause to be appointed another Reference Bank (after consultation with the Depositor). The Securities Administrator shall have no liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least four Reference Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control. The Interest Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Securities Administrator on each LIBOR Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. The Securities Administrator shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain quotations from the Reference Banks or to determine the arithmetic mean referred to in the definition of LIBOR, all as provided for in this Section 4.04 and the definition of LIBOR. The establishment of LIBOR and each Interest Rate for the LIBOR Certificates by the Securities Administrator shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
Indemnities of Servicer The Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Servicer under this Agreement: (a) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Securities Intermediary, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder and any of the officers, directors, employees and agents of the each such party from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses, and including any such reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any enforcement (including any action, claim, or suit brought by such indemnified parties) of any indemnification or other obligation of the Servicer), arising out of or resulting from the use, ownership or operation by the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof of a Financed Vehicle. (b) [Reserved]. (c) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Intermediary, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders and any of the officers, directors, employees and agents of the Seller, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Intermediary, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses, and including any such reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any enforcement (including any action, claim, or suit brought by such indemnified parties) of any indemnification or other obligation of the Servicer), to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or is imposed upon any such Person through, the negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, including those that may be incurred by any such indemnified party as a result of any act or omission by the Servicer in connection with its maintenance and custody of the Receivables Files. (d) Promptly after receipt by a party indemnified under this Section 7.02 or Section 4.08 (a “Servicer Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any action, such Servicer Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the party providing indemnification under this Section 7.02 or 4.08 (a “Servicer Indemnifying Party”), notify such Servicer Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof. In case any such action is brought against any Servicer Indemnified Party under this Section 7.02 or 4.08 and it notifies the Servicer Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Servicer Indemnifying Party will assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Servicer Indemnified Party (who may, unless there is, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel to the Servicer Indemnified Party stating that there is an unwaivable conflict of interest, be counsel to the Servicer Indemnifying Party), and the Servicer Indemnifying Party will not be liable to such Servicer Indemnified Party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Servicer Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation. The obligations set forth in this Section 7.02 and Section 4.08 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest. For purposes of this Section, in the event of the termination of the rights and obligations of TMCC (or any successor thereto pursuant to Section 7.03) as Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01, or a resignation by such Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, such Servicer shall be deemed to be the Servicer pending appointment of a successor Servicer (other than the Indenture Trustee) pursuant to Section 8.02.
