Taxes and Fees Imposed on Purchasing Party But Collected And Remitted By Providing Party 11.3.1 Taxes and fees imposed on the purchasing Party shall be borne by the purchasing Party, even if the obligation to collect and/or remit such taxes or fees is placed on the providing Party.
11.3.2 To the extent permitted by applicable law, any such taxes and/or fees shall be shown as separate items on applicable billing documents between the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the purchasing Party shall remain liable for any such taxes and fees regardless of whether they are actually billed by the providing Party at the time that the respective service is billed.
11.3.3 If the purchasing Party determines that in its opinion any such taxes or fees are not payable, the providing Party shall not xxxx such taxes or fees to the purchasing Party if the purchasing Party provides written certification, reasonably satisfactory to the providing Party, stating that it is exempt or otherwise not subject to the tax or fee, setting forth the basis therefor, and satisfying any other requirements under applicable law. If any authority seeks to collect any such tax or fee that the purchasing Party has determined and certified not to be payable, or any such tax or fee that was not billed by the providing Party, the purchasing Party may contest the same in good faith, at its own expense. In any such contest, the purchasing Party shall promptly furnish the providing Party with copies of all filings in any proceeding, protest, or legal challenge, all rulings issued in connection therewith, and all correspondence between the purchasing Party and the taxing authority.
11.3.4 In the event that all or any portion of an amount sought to be collected must be paid in order to contest the imposition of any such tax or fee, or to avoid the existence of a lien on the assets of the providing Party during the pendency of such contest, the purchasing Party shall be responsible for such payment and shall be entitled to the benefit of any refund or recovery.

Payment by the Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire transfer, promptly following the Agent’s receipt of funds for the account of such Lender and in the type of funds received by the Agent; provided, however, that if the Agent receives such funds at or prior to 12:00 noon, the Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 4:00 p.m. on such Business Day, but if the Agent receives such funds after 12:00 noon, the Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 4:00 p.m. on the next Business Day.

(c) If the Agent pays any amount to a Lender in the belief that a related payment has been or will be received by the Agent from a Loan Party and such related payment is not received by the Agent, then the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from each Lender that receives such amount. If the Agent determines at any time that any amount received by it under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents must be returned to a Loan Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any Requirement of Law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender.
Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain (or cause a Sub-Servicer to establish and maintain) one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of ground rents, taxes, assessments, fire and hazard insurance premiums, Primary Mortgage Insurance Premiums, water charges, sewer rents and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) shall be deposited and retained. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Master Servicer (or the applicable Sub-Servicer) shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Master Servicer’s (or the applicable Sub-Servicer’s) receipt thereof, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Servicing Accounts, in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds in the clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of Escrow Payments; (ii) reimburse the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account; (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of the Master Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX; or (vi) recover amounts deposited in error.

To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Master Servicer shall determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure of a tax lien. The Master Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.
