Passage of Title 9.7.1 The ownership and title to the Goods and any part thereof shall fully pass to ISR free and clear of all security interests, liens, attachment, encumbrances and any other rights or claims of any kind of any third party, upon the date of issuance by ISR of the Final Acceptance Certificate for each of the Goods at ISR Site. The passing of title to ISR and the vesting of ownership rights shall be without prejudice to any right that may accrue to ISR under this Agreement.
9.7.2 ISR shall bear no responsibility for any Works performed or materials, components or equipment used by Supplier or deposited with any Subcontractor, including such materials, equipment or Works being stored or that have been placed at any Site and which are lost, stolen, damaged, destroyed or otherwise fail prior to Acceptance Certificate. Supplier shall be solely responsible to protect completely and preserve entirely the Goods and any related Works, components, material and equipment until the Acceptance.
Special Warranty of Title Seller shall warrant and defend the title to the Properties conveyed to Buyer against every person whomsoever lawfully claiming the Properties or any part thereof by, through or under Seller or its Affiliate, but not otherwise.
Condition of Title (a) At the Settlement Date, title to the Property shall be good and marketable and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, easements, restrictions, rights and similar conditions, excepting Permitted Exceptions (as defined below) and matters appearing of public record on the Effective Date, subject to subparagraph 4(b) below.
(b) During the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall have the right to order a title search to be performed with regard to the Property, and to order a commitment for an owner policy title insurance (the “Commitment”) to be issued by the Title Company with regard to the Property, all at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. Concurrently with its delivery of the Commitment to Purchaser, the Title Company shall deliver copies thereof to Seller. Purchaser shall further have the right to order a survey of the Property (the “Survey”), at its sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller and the Title Company a copy of the Survey as soon as it is available. Regardless of Purchaser’s election to order or not order any Commitment or Survey, Purchaser shall, no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the “Title Objection Date”), deliver written notice to Seller of any title or survey defect, lien, encumbrance or other matter with respect to the Property that is unacceptable to Purchaser, other than Permitted Exceptions (such matters being referred to herein as “Defects” and each being a “Defect”), together with complete copies of each of any Survey and Commitment, and all documents and instruments referred to therein. Purchaser’s election to not order any Commitment or Survey shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Section 4(b), or any other term or condition set forth herein. If, on or before the Title Objection Date, Purchaser properly gives notice to Seller of one or more Defects as required herein, Seller shall, within ten (10) business days after receiving such notice, notify Purchaser whether Seller will or will not attempt to cure such Defects to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction. Failure by Seller to deliver such notice shall be deemed Seller’s election not to cure any such Defects. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to attempt to cure such Defects, Purchaser shall be entitled, by giving notice (the “Purchaser Notice”) to Seller within five (5) days after receiving such notice from Seller (but in any event prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period), to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability hereunder (except with respect to Purchaser’s repair and indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 14 below). If Purchaser does not timely deliver the Purchaser Notice, such failure shall be deemed a waiver of Purchaser’s right to object to any Defects and Purchaser shall proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to the uncured Defects (which shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions), the Permitted Exceptions, all matters of public record on the Effective Date, and all matters that are or would be reflected in any Survey, without an abatement of the Purchase Price. If Seller elects in writing as aforesaid to attempt to cure any Defects, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Defects prior to Settlement. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Defects, but at the time of Settlement such Defects have not been cured, Purchaser’s sole option and remedy shall be either to (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability hereunder (except with respect to Purchaser’s repair and indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 14 below), or
(ii) proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to such uncured Defects and all other Permitted Exceptions, without an abatement of the Purchase Price.
(c) For the purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean (i) liens for real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) applicable zoning, building and other laws, regulations and ordinances and any violations or any encroachments thereof,
Warranty of Title Seller warrants that at the time of signing this Agreement, Seller neither knows, nor has reason to know, of the existence of any outstanding title or claim of title hostile to the rights of Seller in the goods.
WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS 1. Seller warrants the title to all gas delivered hereunder and the right to sell the same and that such gas shall be free and clear from all liens and adverse claims.
Quality of Title (i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller, (ii) the Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the Pool Receivables, Related Assets and the other Collateral free and clear of any Lien (other than any Lien arising solely as the result of any action taken by any Secured Parties (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents); (iii) when any Purchaser makes a Purchase or Reinvestment, it shall have acquired and shall at all times thereafter continuously maintain a valid and perfected first priority undivided percentage ownership interest to the extent of the portion of the Asset Interest funded by the related Purchaser Group in the Pool Receivables and Related Assets, free and clear of any Lien (other than any Lien arising as the result of any action taken by any Secured Party (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents); (iv) other than the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement, the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold or granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Collateral; (v) the Seller has not authorized the filing of, and is not aware of any financing statements against the Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Pool Receivables, Related Assets or any other Collateral except such as may be filed (A) in favor of the Originators in accordance with the Contracts, (B) in favor of the Seller in connection with the Sale Agreement or (C) in favor of the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement or in connection with any Lien arising solely as the result of any action taken by the Secured Parties (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents, and (vi) with respect to each Pool Receivable, the Seller (A) shall have received such Pool Receivable as a contribution to the capital of the Seller by the applicable Originator or (B) shall have purchased such Pool Receivable from the applicable Originator in exchange for payment (made by the Seller to the Originator in accordance with the provisions of the Sale Agreement) of cash, an increase in the principal amount of the Initial Seller Note and/or an increase in the preferred stock of the Seller held by such Originator, in all cases in an amount which constitutes fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value. Each such sale referred to in clause (vi) of the preceding sentence shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by any Originator to the Seller and no such sale is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under applicable law.
Remedies for Title Defects (a) With respect to each Title Defect that Seller does not cure on or before the Closing, except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.05, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Title Defect Value agreed upon in writing by Buyer and Seller or, if Buyer agrees, Seller shall indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 14.04 against all costs which Buyer may incur in connection with such Title Defect. If any Title Defect is in the nature of an unobtained consent to assignment or other restriction on assignability, the provisions of Section 3.08 shall apply.
(b) Except for those affected Assets which Seller elects to exclude from this transaction pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(ii), if on or before Closing the Parties have not agreed upon the validity of any asserted Title Defect or have not agreed on the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, either Party shall have the right to elect to have the validity of such Title Defect and/or such Title Defect Value determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03; provided that if the validity of any asserted Title Defect, or the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, is not determined before Closing, the affected Asset shall be excluded from the sale and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such affected Asset as set forth on Exhibit C. Upon resolution of such dispute, the Allocated Value of that Asset less the Title Defect Value, if any, found to be attributable to such Title Defect shall, subject to this Section 3.05, be paid by Buyer to Seller and the Asset conveyed to Buyer, if that is part of the mutually agreed settlement.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the value of a given individual Title Defect (or individual Title Benefit (as defined in Section 3.09(a)) does not exceed $50,000 then no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for such Title Defect (or Title Benefit), (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects (as hereinafter defined) does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made therefor and (iii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the Purchase Price shall only be adjusted by the amount of such excess.

From time to time thereafter, Seller shall execute and file such financing statements and cause to be executed and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of Purchaser under this Agreement, of the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and of the Trust Collateral Agent under the Indenture in the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and in the proceeds thereof. Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Purchaser and the Trust Collateral Agent file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. In the event that Seller fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent may do so, at the expense of the Seller. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent to file a record or records (as defined in the applicable UCC), including, without limitation, financing statements, in all jurisdictions and with all filing offices as each may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.9 of this Agreement. Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as such party may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the collateral granted to the Purchaser herein.
(b) Seller shall not change its name, identity, state of incorporation or corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by Seller (or by Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of Seller) in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of §9-506 of the applicable UCC, unless they shall have given Purchaser, Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’ prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements.

Seller shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to Purchaser, and the conveyance of the Receivables by Purchaser to the Issuer, Seller’s master computer records (including archives) that shall refer to a Receivable indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold to Purchaser and has been conveyed by Purchaser to the Issuer. Indication of the Issuer’s ownership of a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on Seller’s computer systems when, and only when, the Receivable shall become a Purchased Receivable or a Sold Receivable or shall have been paid in full or sold pursuant to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
