Amendments; Consents and Waivers No modification, amendment or waiver of, or with respect to, any provision of this Agreement, and all other agreements, instruments and documents delivered thereto, nor consent to any departure by the Seller from any of the terms or conditions thereof shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by each of the parties hereto, the written consent of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders is given and confirmation from each Rating Agency that such action will not result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of any rating assigned to a Class of Notes is received. The Seller shall provide the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency with such proposed modifications, amendments or waivers. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No consent to or demand by the Seller in any case shall, in itself, entitle it to any other consent or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. The Seller acknowledges that in connection with the intended assignment by the Depositor of all of its right, title and interest in and to each Timeshare Loan to the Issuer, the Issuer intends to issue the Notes, the proceeds of which will be used by the Issuer to purchase the Timeshare Loans from the Depositor under the terms of the Sale Agreement.
Additional Actions and Documents Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to take or cause to be taken such further actions, to execute, deliver, and file or cause to be executed, delivered and filed such further documents, and will obtain such consents, as may be necessary or as may be reasonably requested in order to fully effectuate the purposes, terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents (a) Subject to this Section 3.21, the Servicer may agree to any modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan without the consent of the Trustee or any Certificateholder. All modifications, waivers, forbearances or amendments of any Mortgage Loan shall be in writing and shall be consistent with Customary Servicing Procedures.
(b) The Servicer shall not agree to enter into, and shall not enter into, any modification, waiver (other than a waiver referred to in Section 3.13, which waiver, if any, shall be governed by Section 3.13), forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan if such modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment would:
(i) affect the amount or timing of any related payment of principal, interest or other amount payable thereunder;
(ii) in the Servicer's judgment, materially impair the security for such Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon; or
(iii) otherwise constitute a "significant modification" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b); unless, in either case, (A) such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more past due or (B) the Servicer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment would not affect the REMIC status of either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC and, in either case, such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery with respect to such Mortgage Loan than would liquidation. Subject to Customary Servicing Procedures, the Servicer may permit a forbearance for a Mortgage Loan which in the Servicer's judgment is subject to imminent default.
(c) Any payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment permitted hereunder, shall not, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or such modification, waiver or amendment so permit.
(d) The Servicer may, as a condition to granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, the granting of which is within the Servicer's discretion pursuant to the Mortgage Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Servicer, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee for the additional services performed in connection with such request, together with any related costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer, which amount shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
(e) The Servicer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, of any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days) following the execution thereof; provided, however, that if any such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is required by applicable law to be recorded, the Servicer (i) shall deliver to the Trustee a copy thereof and (ii) shall deliver to the Trustee such document, with evidence of notification upon receipt thereof from the public recording office.
Duration and Scope of Covenants If any court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the Executive’s covenants contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration or geographical scope of such provision, then, after such determination has become final and unappealable, the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.
Geographic Area and Sector Specific Allowances, Conditions and Exceptions The following allowances and conditions shall apply where relevant. Where the Employer does work which falls under the following headings, the Employer agrees to pay and observe the relevant respective conditions and/or exceptions set out below in each case.
Consents Amendments and Waivers 12.9.1. No amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective without the prior written agreement of the Required Lenders and Borrower, and no waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, without the prior consent of all Lenders, no waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall be effective if the Default or Event of Default relates to Borrower's failure to observe or perform any covenant that may not be amended without the unanimous written consent of Lenders as hereinafter set forth in this Section 12.9.
1. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the written agreement of all Lenders (except a defaulting Lender as provided in Section 3.2 of this Agreement) shall be required to effectuate any amendment, modification or waiver that would (a) alter the provisions of Sections 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 4.6, 4.7, 5.1, 12, 14.2 or 14.3, the definitions of "Availability Reserve," "Borrowing Base" and the other defined terms used in such definitions, "Pro Rata," "Required Lenders" or any provision of this Agreement obligating Agent to take certain actions at the direction of the Required Lenders, or any provision of any of the Loan Documents regarding the Pro Rata treatment or obligations of Lenders; (b) increase or otherwise modify any of the Commitments (other than to reduce proportionately each Lender's Commitment in connection with any overall reduction in the amount of the Commitments); (c) alter or amend the rate of interest payable in respect of the Loans (except as may be expressly authorized by the Loan Documents or as may be necessary, in Agent's judgment, to comply with Applicable Law); (d) waive or agree to defer collection of any fee, termination charge or other charge provided for under any of the Loan Documents (except to the extent that the Required Lenders agree after and during the continuance of any Event of Default to a waiver or deferral of any termination charge provided for in Section 5.2.3 hereof) or the unused line fee in Section 2.2.3 hereof; (e) subordinate the payment of any of the Obligations to any other Debt or the priority of any Liens granted to Agent under any of the Loan Documents to Liens granted to any other Person, except as currently provided in or contemplated by the Loan Documents in connection with Borrower's incurrence of Permitted Purchase Money Debt, and except for Liens granted by an Obligor to financial institutions with respect to amounts on deposit with such financial institutions to cover returned items, processing and analysis charges and other charges in the ordinary course of business that relate to deposit accounts with such financial institutions; (f) alter the time or amount of repayment of any of the Loans or waive any Event of Default resulting from nonpayment of the Loans on the due date thereof (or within any applicable period of grace); (g) forgive any of the Obligations, except any portion of the Obligations held by a Lender who consents in writing to such forgiveness; or (h) release any Obligor from liability for any of the Obligations. In no event shall any amendment to the provisions of Sections 1.3 or 3.1.3 be effective without the prior written consent of Fleet. No Lender shall be authorized to amend or modify any Note held by it, unless such amendment or modification is consented to in writing by all Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit an amendment or modification to any provision of this Agreement that may be effected pursuant to this Section 12.9.1 by agreement of Borrower and the Required Lenders even though such an amendment or modification results in an amendment or modification of the Notes by virtue of the incorporation by reference in each of the Notes of this Agreement. The making of any Loans hereunder by any Lender during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default. Any waiver or consent granted by Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
