Amounts held in the Collateral Fund shall continue to be the property of the Purchaser, subject to the first priority security interest granted hereunder for the benefit of such secured parties, until withdrawn from the Collateral Fund pursuant to the Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof. Upon the termination of this Agreement and the liquidation of all Mortgage Loans as to which the Purchaser has made any Election to Delay Foreclosure or any Election to Foreclose pursuant to Section 2.04 hereof, the Company shall distribute to the Purchaser all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund together with any investment earnings thereon (after giving effect to all withdrawals therefrom permitted under this Agreement). The Purchaser shall not take or direct the Company or the Trustee to take any action contrary to any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event shall the Purchaser (i) take or cause the Trustee or the Company to take any action that could cause any REMIC established under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition on any such REMIC of any "prohibited transaction" or "prohibited contribution" taxes or (ii) cause the Trustee or the Company to fail to take any action necessary to maintain the status of any such REMIC as a REMIC. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Collateral Fund is an "outside reserve fund" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions and that the Purchaser will be the beneficial owner thereof, and will be taxable on all income or gain with respect thereto.
Federal Funding Requirements If this Agreement is funded in whole or in part by the federal government, this section is applicable. It is mutually understood between the parties that this Agreement may have been written for the mutual benefit of both parties before ascertaining the availability of congressional appropriation of funds, to avoid program and fiscal delays that would occur if this Agreement were executed after that determination was made. This Agreement is valid and enforceable only if sufficient funds are made available to the JBE by the United State Government for the fiscal year in which they are due and consistent with any stated programmatic purpose, and this Agreement is subject to any additional restrictions, limitations, or conditions enacted by the Congress or to any statute enacted by the Congress that may affect the provisions, terms, or funding of this Agreement in any manner. The parties mutually agree that if the Congress does not appropriate sufficient funds for any program under which this Agreement is intended to be paid, this Agreement shall be deemed amended without any further action of the parties to reflect any reduction in funds. The JBE may invalidate this Agreement under the termination for convenience or cancellation clause (providing for no more than thirty (30) days’ Notice of termination or cancellation), or amend this Agreement to reflect any reduction in funds.
Interest Rates and Letter of Credit Fee Rates Payments and Calculations (a) Interest Rates. Except as provided in Section 2.13(c) and Section 2.15(a), all Obligations (except for the undrawn portion of the face amount of Letters of Credit) that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin, or (ii) the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable laws; provided, that following notice to Borrower in accordance with Section 2.15(a) hereof, all Obligations that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal, during the duration of the circumstances described in Section 2.15(a), to the lesser of (A) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin as calculated pursuant to Section 2.15(a) or (B) the maximum rate of interest allowable by applicable laws.
Reserve Funds, Generally (a) Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Reserve Funds and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in each Reserve Fund as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion. The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender.
(b) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.
(c) The Reserve Funds shall be held by Lender (or Servicer) and may be invested at Borrower’s election and direction in Permitted Investments routinely offered by the Servicer of the Securitization for investment by Borrower. All interest or other earnings on a Reserve Fund shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Fund for the benefit of Borrower and shall be disbursed in the same manner as other monies deposited in such Reserve Fund. Borrower shall have the right to direct Lender (or Servicer) to invest sums on deposit in the Eligible Account in Permitted Investments provided (a) such investments are permitted by applicable federal, state and local rules, regulations and laws, (b) the maturity date of the Permitted Investment is not later than the date on which the applicable Reserve Funds are required for payment of an obligation for which such Reserve Fund was created, and (c) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Borrower shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state or local income or other tax applicable to the interest or income earned on the Reserve Funds. No other investments of the sums on deposit in the Reserve Funds shall be permitted except as set forth in this Section 7.5. Borrower shall bear all reasonable costs associated with the investment of the sums in the account in Permitted Investments. Such costs shall be deducted from the income or earnings on such investment, if any, and to the extent such income or earnings shall not be sufficient to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by Borrower promptly on demand by Lender. Lender shall have no liability for the rate of return earned or losses incurred on the investment of the sums in Permitted Investments.
(d) Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.
Collateral Fund Permitted Investments The Company shall, at the written direction of the Purchaser, invest the funds in the Collateral Fund in Collateral Fund Permitted Investments. Such direction shall not be changed more frequently than quarterly. In the absence of any direction, the Company shall select such investments in accordance with the definition of Collateral Fund Permitted Investments in its discretion. All income and gain realized from any investment as well as any interest earned on deposits in the Collateral Fund (net of any losses on such investments) and any payments of principal made in respect of any Collateral Fund Permitted Investment shall be deposited in the Collateral Fund upon receipt. All costs and realized losses associated with the purchase and sale of Collateral Fund Permitted Investments shall be borne by the Purchaser and the amount of net realized losses shall be deposited by the Purchaser in the Collateral Fund promptly upon realization. The Company shall periodically (but not more frequently than monthly) distribute to the Purchaser upon request an amount of cash, to the extent cash is available therefore in the Collateral Fund, equal to the amount by which the balance of the Collateral Fund, after giving effect to all other distributions to be made from the Collateral Fund on such date, exceeds the Required Collateral Fund Balance. Any amounts so distributed shall be released from the lien and security interest of this Agreement.
