Engagement of Successor Servicer; Indenture Trustee to Act. (i) If the Servicer resigns or is terminated under this Agreement, the Indenture Trustee will promptly engage an institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 whose regular business and operations includes the servicing of consumer receivables and can accommodate the servicing of device payment plan agreements, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement (the “Successor Servicer”) and successor to the Administrator under Section 3.4 of the Administration Agreement. (ii) If no Person has accepted the engagement as Successor Servicer when the Servicer stops performing its obligations, the Indenture Trustee, without further action, will be automatically appointed the Successor Servicer to perform the obligations of the Servicer (other than any obligations specifically excluded) until such time as another Successor Servicer shall accept engagement as Successor Servicer. If the Indenture Trustee becomes the Successor Servicer, it (A) will do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, Article VI of the Indenture will be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee solely in its capacity as Successor Servicer and (B) may appoint as Servicer any one of its Affiliates, but the Indenture Trustee, in its capacity as Successor Servicer, will be liable for the actions and omissions of such Affiliate. If the Indenture Trustee is unwilling or legally unable to act as Successor Servicer, it will appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 whose regular business and operations includes the servicing of consumer receivables and can accommodate the servicing of device payment plan agreements, as successor to the Servicer under this Agreement. The Indenture Trustee will be released from its obligations as Successor Servicer on the date that a new Servicer accepts its engagement as Successor Servicer.
