Common use of REMIC Compliance Clause in Contracts

REMIC Compliance. The parties intend that the Trust Fund formed hereunder shall constitute, and that the affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, act as agent, and is hereby appointed to act as agent, of the Trust Fund and shall on behalf of the Trust Fund: (a) prepare, file and present to the Trustee to sign, or cause to be prepared, filed and presented to the Trustee to be signed, all required federal tax returns for the Trust Fund, including, but not limited to, Form 1066 using a calendar year as the taxable year for the Trust Fund when and as required by the REMIC Provisions and other applicable federal income tax laws; (b) make an election, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to be treated as a REMIC on the Form 1066 for its first taxable year, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions; (c) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Certificateholders all information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions; (d) take such other actions as are necessary or appropriate to maintain the status of the Trust Fund as a REMIC; and (e) serve as tax matters person for the Trust Fund pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d) or serve as attorney-in-fact and agent for any Person that is the tax matters person. Neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall take any action or omit to take any action if such action or omission (as the case may be) would cause the termination of the REMIC status of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall be required to take any action if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable, in good faith believes such action or omission to be inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement. The Company and the Servicer shall cooperate with the Servicer or its agent for such purpose in supplying any information within their control that is necessary to enable the Servicer to perform its duties under this Section. The Holder of the Class R Certificate, by purchasing such Class R Certificate, (a) shall be deemed to consent to the appointment of the Servicer as (i) the tax matters person for the Trust Fund and (ii) the attorney-in-fact and agent for any person that is the tax matters person if the Servicer is unable to serve as the tax matters person and (b) agrees to execute any documents required to give effect to clause (a) of this sentence. The Holder of the Class R Certificate, by purchasing such Class R Certificate, agrees to give the Servicer written notice that it is a "pass-through interest holder" within the meaning of Temporary Treasury Regulations section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon becoming the Holder of the Class R Certificate, if it is, or is holding the Class R Certificate on behalf of, a "pass-through interest holder." In the event that any tax, including interest, penalties, additional amounts or additions to tax (a "Tax"), is imposed on the Trust Fund, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise required to be distributed on the Class R Certificate. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee if any Tax is imposed on the Trust Fund and the amount of any such Tax. The Trustee is hereby authorized to retain, or cause the Paying Agent to retain, from amounts otherwise required to be distributed on the Class R Certificate, sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, such Tax as is legally owed by the Trust Fund (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such Tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such Tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). To the extent that sufficient amounts cannot be so retained to pay or provide for the payment of any tax imposed on gain realized from any prohibited transaction (as defined in the REMIC Provisions), the Trustee is hereby authorized to and, upon the receipt of written notice of the existence of any tax liability, shall segregate, into a separate non-interest-bearing account, the net income from such prohibited transactions and pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, such Tax. In the event any (i) amounts initially retained from amounts required to be distributed on the Class R Certificate and (ii) income so segregated and applied towards the payment of such Tax shall not be sufficient to pay such Tax in its entirety, the amount of the shortfall shall be paid from funds in each Certificate Account after distributions of principal and interest to the related Certificateholders pursuant to Section 6.01 in respect of the related Remittance Date notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein. To the extent any such segregated income or funds from one of the Certificate Accounts are paid to the Internal Revenue Service, the Trustee shall retain, or cause to be retained, an amount equal to the amount of such income or funds so paid from future amounts otherwise required to be distributed on the Class R Certificate and shall deposit such retained amounts in such Certificate Account for distribution to the Holders of Certificates other than the Class R Certificate. Except as provided in Section 3.05 and except in connection with REO Property, the Trustee shall not sell any Contract or any other asset of the Trust Fund unless either (i) it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or (ii) the proceeds of such sale, net of any related taxes on "prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860F of the Code, will at least equal the Repurchase Price of such Contract. In the event that any Manufactured Home is acquired in a repossession or foreclosure (an "REO Property"), the Servicer shall sell any REO Property within two years of its acquisition by the Trust Fund, unless, at the request and expense of the Servicer, the Servicer seeks, and subsequently receives, an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to two years after its acquisition will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust Fund as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause any such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) or result in the receipt by the REMIC of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Servicer and the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to each REO Property an account held in trust for the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (each, an "REO Account"), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in each REO Account by the depository. The Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, within two Business Days after receipt on a daily basis in each REO Account all revenues received with respect to the related REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property. On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account and deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the related Certificate Account the income from the REO Property on deposit in the REO Account, net of its reasonable fees and expenses. The disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general servicing activities. The proceeds from the REO disposition, net of any reimbursement to the Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the REO Account and shall be deposited in the related Certificate Account when the related Contract becomes a Liquidated Contract.
