(2) Subject to the procedures set out in the Procedures Memorandum, for the purposes of Subclause 7(1) the Agent is entitled to treat a telephone or facsimile communication from a person purporting to be (and who the Agent, after making reasonable investigation, believes in good faith to be) the authorised representative of the relevant Issuer named in the list referred to in, or notified pursuant to, Subclause 19(7) as sufficient instructions and authority of the relevant Issuer for the Agent to act in accordance with Subclause 7(1).
(3) In the event that a person who has signed on behalf of any Issuer a master Temporary Global Note, a master Permanent Global Note or Definitive Bearer Notes not yet issued but held by the Agent in accordance with Subclause 7(1) ceases to be authorised as described in Subclause 19(7), the Agent shall (unless the relevant Issuer gives notice to the Agent that Notes signed by that person do not constitute valid and binding obligations of the relevant Issuer or otherwise until replacements have been provided to the Agent) continue to have authority to issue any such Notes, and the relevant Issuer hereby warrants to the Agent that such Notes shall, unless notified as aforesaid, be valid and binding obligations of the relevant Issuer. Promptly upon such person ceasing to be authorised, the relevant Issuer shall provide the Agent with replacement master Temporary Global Notes, master Permanent Global Notes and (if applicable) Definitive Bearer Notes and the Agent shall cancel and destroy the master Temporary Global Notes, master Permanent Global Notes and (if applicable) Definitive Bearer Notes held by it which are signed by such person and shall provide to the relevant Issuer a confirmation of destruction in respect thereof specifying the Notes so cancelled and destroyed.
(4) Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the relevant Issuer and the Agent, each Note credited to the Agent’s distribution account with Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (or, in the case of Notes in CGN form, such other applicable clearing agency) following the delivery of a Temporary Global Note or Permanent Global Note, as the case may be, to a common depositary or, as the case may be, a common safekeeper pursuant to Subclause 3(1)(c), 3(1)(d), 4(1)(c) or 4(1)(d), respectively, shall be held to the order of the relevant Issuer. The Agent shall procure that the nominal amount of Notes which the relevant Purchaser has agreed to purchase is:
(a) debited from the Agent’s distribution account; and
(b) credited to the securities account of such Purchaser with Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or, in the case of Notes in CGN form, such other clearing agency (as specified in the Letter from Lead Manager/Dealer as provided for in Annex C to the Procedures Memorandum set forth in Appendix D hereto), in each case only upon receipt by the Agent on behalf of the relevant Issuer of the purchase price due from the relevant Purchaser in respect of such Notes.
(5) Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the relevant Issuer and the Agent, if on the relevant Issue Date a Purchaser does not pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Note (the Defaulted Note) and, as a result, the Defaulted Note remains in the Agent’s distribution account with Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg (or, in the case of Notes in CGN form, such other applicable clearing agency) after such Issue Date, the Agent will continue to hold the Defaulted Note to the order of the relevant Issuer. The Agent shall notify the relevant Issuer forthwith of the failure of the Purchaser to pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Defaulted Note and, subsequently, shall notify the relevant Issuer forthwith upon receipt from the Purchaser of the full purchase price in respect of such Defaulted Note.

(8) Execution in facsimile of any Notes and any photostatic copying or other duplication of the master Temporary Global Note or the master Permanent Global Note (in unauthenticated form, but executed manually on behalf of the relevant Issuer as stated above) shall be binding upon the relevant Issuer in the same manner as if such Notes were signed manually by such signatories.
Covenants of Issuer In addition to its other agreements and covenants herein, Issuer agrees:
Mechanics of Issuance (1) Upon receipt by the Agent of a Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice from the Borrower requesting the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances, the Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof and advise each Lender of the aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by such Lenders, the date of issue and the Interest Period for such Loan; the apportionment among the Lenders of the face amounts of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by each Lender shall be determined by the Agent by reference and in proportion to the respective Commitment of each Lender, provided that, when such apportionment cannot be evenly made, the Agent shall round allocations amongst such Lenders consistent with the Agent’s normal money market practices.
(2) On each Drawdown Date, Rollover Date or Conversion Date involving the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances:
(a) before 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on such date, the Agent shall determine the CDOR Rate in respect of an issue of bankers’ acceptances in a comparable amount and with comparable maturity to the Bankers’ Acceptances proposed to be issued on such date;
(b) on or about 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on such date, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable BA Discount Rate;
(c) each Lender shall complete and accept, in accordance with the Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice delivered by the Borrower and advised by the Agent in connection with such issue, its share of the Bankers’ Acceptances to be issued on such date and shall purchase such Bankers’ Acceptances for its own account at a purchase price which reflects the BA Discount Rate applicable to such issue; and
(d) in the case of a Drawdown, each Lender shall, for same day value on the Drawdown Date, remit the Discount Proceeds or advance the BA Equivalent Advance, as the case may be, payable by such Lender (net of the acceptance fee payable to such Lender pursuant to Section 6.2) to the Agent for the account of the Borrower; the Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower for same day value on such date.
(3) Each Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it for its own account.
Dissolution of Issuer The Issuer shall wind up and dissolve upon the latest of (1) satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, (2) the Optional Purchase of the Trust Estate pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement or (3) the final distribution from the Collection Account established pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(i) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of a Certificateholder shall not (x) operate to terminate this Agreement or the Issuer, nor (y) entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Issuer or Trust Estate nor (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.
(a) Upon receipt of written notice from the Servicer of any dissolution and termination of the Issuer, specifying the Payment Date upon which Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Certificate Registrar for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, and if the Certificate Registrar is notified of a redemption of the Notes by the Administrator or the Issuer pursuant to Section 10.1(c) of the Indenture, the Certificate Registrar shall mail such notice to the Certificateholders within five (5) Business Days of the Certificate Registrar’s receipt of such notice from the Servicer, Issuer or Administrator. Each such notice to a Certificateholder shall state (i) the Payment Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the Certificates shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Certificate Registrar therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Payment Date is not applicable and that payments are being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Certificate Registrar therein specified. The Certificate Registrar shall give such notice to the Owner Trustee (if other than the Certificate Registrar) and the Certificate Paying Agent (if other than the Certificate Registrar) at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of each Certificate, the Certificate Registrar or the Certificate Paying Agent, at the written direction of the Administrator, shall cause to be distributed to such Certificateholders, subject to Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute, amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Article V hereof.
(b) In the event that any of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Certificate Registrar shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after the second notice any of the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Registrar may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any funds remaining in the Trust Estate after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the Certificate Paying Agent to the last Certificateholder of record identified in the Certificate Register for each such remaining Certificate.
Resignation of Issuing Bank Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and Borrowers. On and after the effective date of such resignation, Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and other obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder relating to any Letter of Credit issued by it prior to such date. Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrowers.
Resolution of Issues In the event issues pertaining to a proposed TO/DO solicitation cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of the CO, the CO reserves the right to withdraw and cancel the proposed TO/DO solicitation. In such event, the contractor shall be notified in writing of the CO's decision. This decision is final and conclusive and shall not be subject to the "Disputes" clause or the "Contract Disputes Act."
