Advances by the Master Servicer; Distribution Reports to the Trustee (a) To the extent described below, the Master Servicer is obligated to advance its own funds to the Certificate Account to cover any shortfall between (i) payments scheduled to be received in respect of Mortgage Loans, and (ii) the amounts actually deposited in the Certificate Account on account of such payments. The Master Servicer's obligation to make any advance or advances described in this Section 4.02 is effective only to the extent that such advance is, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer made on or before the second Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, reimbursable from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds of the related Mortgage Loans or recoverable as late Monthly Payments with respect to the related Mortgage Loans or otherwise. Prior to the close of business on the second Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine whether or not it will make a Monthly P&I Advance on the Business Day prior to such Distribution Date (in the event that the applicable Servicer fails to make such advances) and shall furnish a written statement to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, if any, and to any Certificateholder requesting the same, setting forth the aggregate amount to be advanced on account of principal and interest in respect of the Mortgage Loans, stated separately. In the event that the Master Servicer shall be required to make a Monthly P&I Advance, it shall on the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date either (i) deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to such Monthly P&I Advance, (ii) make an appropriate entry in the records of the Certificate Account that funds in such account being held for future distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section 4.02, used by the Master Servicer to make such Monthly P&I Advance, or (iii) make advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the amount of such Monthly P&I Advance. Any funds being held for future distribution to Certificateholders and so used shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Certificate Account on the Business Day immediately preceding any future Distribution Date to the extent that funds in the Certificate Account on such Distribution Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be less than payments to Certificateholders required to be made on such date with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Under each Selling and Servicing Contract, the Master Servicer is entitled to receive from the Custodial Accounts for P&I established by the Servicers amounts received by the applicable Servicers on particular Mortgage Loans as late payments of principal and interest or as Liquidation or Insurance Proceeds and respecting which the Master Servicer has made an unreimbursed advance of principal and interest. The Master Servicer is also entitled to receive other amounts from the related Custodial Accounts for P&I established by the Servicers to reimburse itself for prior Nonrecoverable Advances respecting Mortgage Loans serviced by such Servicers. The Master Servicer shall deposit these amounts in the Investment Account prior to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05. In accordance with Section 3.05, Monthly P&I Advances are reimbursable to the Master Servicer from cash in the Investment Account or the Certificate Account to the extent that the Master Servicer shall determine that any such advances previously made are Nonrecoverable Advances pursuant to Section 4.03.
Compensation for the Master Servicer The Master Servicer will be entitled to all income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Distribution Account and the Master Servicer Collection Account, pursuant to Article IV, for the performance of its activities hereunder. Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise (but not including any prepayment premium or penalty) shall be retained by the applicable Servicer and shall not be deposited in the Protected Account. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as provided in this Agreement.
Termination for Distressed Mortgage Loans (a) Subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 8.04, the Seller may terminate this Agreement with the prior consent of the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, with respect to the servicing of those Mortgage Loans that are determined to be Distressed Mortgage Loans and in such event servicing of such Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Special Servicer. The appointment of a Special Servicer by the Seller and the execution of a special servicing agreement between the Seller and the Special Servicer shall be subject to the consent of the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and the receipt of confirmation from the Rating Agencies that the transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer shall not result in a reduction of any rating previously given by such Rating Agency to any Certificate or the NIMS Securities. Any monthly fee paid to the Special Servicer in connection with any Mortgage Loan serviced by such Special Servicer shall not exceed one-twelfth of the product of (a) 0.50% and (b) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan. All unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances owing to the Servicer relating to such Distressed Mortgage Loans shall be reimbursed and paid to the Servicer by the successor Special Servicer upon such transfer to the Special Servicer.
PURCHASE OF MORTGAGE LOANS AND TERMINATION OF THE TRUST FUND Section 7.01 Purchase of Mortgage Loans; Termination of Trust Fund Upon Purchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
Redemptions by Trustee; Purchases by Depositor Any Unit tendered for redemption by a Unitholder or his duly authorized attorney to the Trustee at its unit investment trust division office shall be redeemed by the Trustee no later than the seventh calendar day following the day on which tender for redemption is made in proper form, provided that if such day of payment is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made no later than the first Business Day prior thereto (herein referred to as the "Settlement Date"). Unitholders must sign the request exactly as their name appears on the records of the Trustee. If the amount of redemption is $500 or less and the proceeds are payable to the Unitholders of record at the address of record, no signature guarantee is necessary for redemptions by individual account owners (including joint owners). Additional documentation may be requested, and a signature guarantee is always required, from corporations, executors, administrators, trustees, guardians and associations. The signatures must be guaranteed by a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP) or such other signature guarantee program in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, as may be accepted by the Trustee. Subject to (a) the next succeeding paragraph, (b) payment by such Unitholder of any tax or other governmental charges which may be imposed thereon and (c) payments in the form of In Kind Distributions (as defined below), such redemption is to be made by payment of cash equivalent to the Unit Value determined on the basis of a Trust Fund Evaluation made in accordance with Section 5.01 determined by the Trustee as of the Evaluation Time on the Redemption Date, multiplied by the number of Units tendered for redemption (herein called the "Redemption Value"), or, if the Unitholder wishes to redeem a number of Units less than all those so tendered, multiplied by the number of Units so designated by such Unitholder for redemption. Units received for redemption by the Trustee on any day after the Evaluation Time will be held by the Trustee until the next day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and will be deemed to have been tendered on such day for redemption at the Redemption Value computed on that day. The portion of the Redemption Value which represents income shall be withdrawn from the Principal Account to the extent available. The balance paid on any Redemption Value, including income not paid from the Principal Account, if any, shall be withdrawn from the Principal Account to the extent that funds are available for such purpose. If such available funds shall be insufficient, the Trustee shall sell such Securities as have been designated on the current list for such purpose by the Supervisor (or by the Evaluator), as hereinafter in this Section 5.02 provided, in amounts as the Trustee in its discretion shall deem advisable or necessary in order to fund the Principal Account for purposes of such redemption. Sale of Securities by the Trustee shall be made in such manner as the Trustee shall determine will bring the best price obtainable for a Trust, subject to any limitations as to the minimum amount of Securities to be sold specified in the Reference Trust Agreement. In the event that either (i) funds are withdrawn from the Principal Account and are applied to the payment of income upon any redemption of Units or (ii) Securities are sold for the payment of the Redemption value and any portion of the proceeds of such sale is applied to the payment of income upon such redemption, then, in either such event, the Principal Account shall be reimbursed therefor at such time as sufficient funds may be next available in the Principal Account for such purpose. The Trustee may in its discretion, and shall when so directed by the Depositor in writing, suspend the right of redemption for Units of a Trust or postpone the date of payment of the Redemption Value for more than seven calendar days following the day on which tender for redemption is made (i) for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend and holiday closings or during which (as determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (ii) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of the Securities by the Trustee is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable fairly to determine in accordance herewith the underlying value of the Securities; or (iii) for such other period as the Securities and Exchange Commission may by order permit, and shall not be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damage which may result from any such suspension or postponement. Not later than the close of business on the day of tender of any Unit for redemption by a Unitholder other than the Depositor, the Trustee shall notify the Depositor of such tender. The Depositor shall have the right to purchase such Unit by notifying the Trustee of its election to make such purchase as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event subsequent to the close of business on the second succeeding Business Day after the day on which such Unit was tendered for redemption. Such purchase shall be made by payment by the Depositor to the Unitholder at the price so bid by making payment therefor to the Unitholder in an amount not less than the Redemption Value on the day of tender not later than the day on which the Units would otherwise have been redeemed by the Trustee to such Unitholder. So long as the Depositor maintains a bid in the secondary market, the Depositor may repurchase the Units tendered to the Trustee for redemption by the Depositor but shall be under no obligation to maintain any bids and may, at any time while so maintaining such bids, cease to do so immediately at any time or from time to time without notice. Any Units so purchased by the Depositor may at the option of the Depositor be tendered to the Trustee for redemption at the unit investment trust office of the Trustee in the manner provided in the first paragraph of this Section 5.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.02, until the close of business on the second Business Day after the day on which such Unit was tendered for redemption, the Trustee is hereby irrevocably authorized in its discretion, in the event that the Depositor does not purchase any Units tendered to the Trustee for redemption, or in the event that a Unit is being tendered by the Depositor for redemption, in lieu of redeeming Units, to sell Units in the over-the-counter market through any broker-dealer of its choice for the account of the tendering Unitholder at prices which will return to the Unitholder an amount in cash, net after deducting brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and other charges, equal to or in excess of the Redemption Value which such Unitholder would otherwise be entitled to receive on redemption pursuant to this Section 5.02. The Trustee shall pay to the Unitholder the net proceeds of any such sale on the day on which such Unitholder would otherwise be entitled to receive payment of the Redemption Value hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.02, any Unitholder may, if such Unitholder tenders at least that minimum amount of Units for redemption specified in the Prospectus, request at the time of tender to receive from the Trustee in lieu of cash such Unitholder's pro rata share of each Security then held by such Trust; provided, however, if a Unitholder tenders for redemption Units having an aggregate value of at least the amount specified in the Prospectus, if any, the Depositor reserves the right to direct the Trustee to make an In Kind Distribution rather than make a cash payment. Such tendering Unitholder will receive his pro rata number of whole shares of each of the Securities comprising the portfolio of such Trust and cash from the Principal Account equal to the value of the fractional shares to which such tendering Unitholder is entitled. Such pro rata share of each Security and the related cash to which such tendering Unitholder is entitled is referred to herein as an "In Kind Distribution." An In Kind Distribution will be made by the Trustee through the distribution of each of the Securities in book-entry form to the account of the Unitholder's bank or broker-dealer at DTC. If funds in the Principal Account are insufficient to cover the required cash distribution to the tendering Unitholder, the Trustee shall sell Securities according to the criteria discussed herein. The Depositor may terminate the right of Unitholder to make In-Kind Distributions at any time or from time to time without notice. The Supervisor shall maintain with the Trustee a current list of Securities designated to be sold for the purpose of funding the Principal Account for redemption of Units tendered for redemption and, to the extent necessary, for payment of expenses under this Indenture. In connection therewith, the Depositor may specify in the Prospectus and/or the Reference Trust Agreement the minimum amounts of any Securities to be sold at any one time. If the Supervisor shall for any reason fail to maintain such a list, the Trustee may in its sole discretion designate a current list of Securities for such purposes. The net proceeds of any sale of such Securities representing income shall be credited to the Principal Account and then disbursed therefrom for payment of expenses and payments to Unitholders required to be paid under this Indenture. Any balance remaining after such disbursements shall remain credited to the Principal Account. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of any sale of Securities made pursuant to this Section 5.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no In Kind Distribution requests made pursuant to this Section 5.02 and submitted during the 30 business days prior to the trust's Mandatory Termination Date will be honored. In addition, no unitholder will be eligible for an In Kind Distribution of securities pursuant to Section 9.02. Furthermore, the availability of In Kind Distributions may be modified or discontinued as described in the Prospectus.
Covenants of the Trust Depositor In the event that any litigation with claims in excess of $1,000,000 to which the Trust Depositor is a party which shall be reasonably likely to result in a material judgment against the Trust Depositor that the Trust Depositor will not be able to satisfy shall be commenced, during the period beginning immediately following the commencement of such litigation and continuing until such litigation is dismissed or otherwise terminated (and, if such litigation has resulted in a final judgment against the Trust Depositor, such judgment has been satisfied), the Trust Depositor shall not pay any dividend to the Servicer, or make any distribution on or in respect of its capital stock to the Servicer, or repay the principal amount of any indebtedness of the Trust Depositor held by the Servicer, unless after giving effect to such payment, distribution or repayment, the Trust Depositor’s liquid assets shall not be less than the amount of actual damages claimed in such litigation.
Special Servicing of Delinquent Mortgage Loans If permitted under the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Seller may appoint, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement and with the written consent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any NIMS Insurer, a Special Servicer to special service any Distressed Mortgage Loans. Any applicable Termination Fee related to the termination of the related Servicer and the appointment of any Special Servicer shall be paid by the Seller from its own funds, without right of reimbursement from the Trust Fund. Any fees paid to any such Special Servicer shall not exceed the Servicing Fee Rate.
Depositor as Certificateholder The Depositor in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates and may otherwise deal with the Owner Trustee or its Affiliates as if it were not the Depositor.
