Repurchase upon Breach (a) The Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 6.1, or CNHICA’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement. Unless a breach pursuant to the sections and documents referenced in the preceding sentence shall have been cured by the last day of the second Collection Period after such breach is discovered by the Servicer or the Trustee or in which the Trustee receives written notice from the Seller or the Servicer of such breach, the Seller shall be obligated, and, if necessary, the Seller or the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of CNHICA under the Purchase Agreement to repurchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by any such breach as of such last day. As consideration for the repurchase of the Receivable, the Seller shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 5.5; provided, however, that the obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Receivable arising solely as a result of a breach of CNHICA’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement is subject to the receipt by the Seller of the Purchase Amount from CNHICA. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3, the sole remedy of the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of the representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.1 and the agreement contained in this Section shall be to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section, subject to the conditions contained herein, and to enforce CNHICA’s obligation to the Seller to repurchase such Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
(b) Upon the delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Review Report, the Servicer shall evaluate the findings contained in the Review Report and determine whether a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller and/or CNHICA has occurred and whether such breach requires the Seller and/or CNHICA to repurchase such Receivables pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.2.
(c) With respect to all Receivables purchased or repurchased by, or otherwise transferred to (including Liquidated Receivables transferred under Section 4.3, 4.6 and 9.1) CNHICA, the Servicer, the Seller or their Affiliate pursuant to this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement: (i) the Issuing Entity, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee shall sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHICA, the Servicer, the Seller or their Affiliate, as applicable, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of the Issuing Entity’s, the Seller’s and the Indenture Trustee’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all other CNHCR Assets related thereto, including all security and documents relating thereto, and (ii) the Issuing Entity, the Seller, and the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have released any security interest and any other claim under this Agreement and the Basic Documents in such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all other CNHCR Assets related thereto, including all security and documents relating thereto, without any further act or deed, and such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all security and documents relating thereto will be free of the Grant contained in the Indenture.
Repurchase Rights If the Optionee for any reason whatsoever ----------------- (including without limitation death, disability, or voluntary or involuntary termination) ceases to be employed by the Company or Banyan Worldwide, or providing services on behalf of the Company or Banyan Worldwide, prior to the date specified in Section 8(d) below for the expiration of these restrictions, then during the 90-day period following such termination the Company may elect, by written notice delivered to the Optionee, to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares, at a price per share equal to the fair market value of such Shares as of the close of business on the date of termination of the Optionee's employment. Such fair market value shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Company and the Optionee. Failing such agreement between the Optionee and the Company within 30 days of the date of the Company's notice electing to repurchase such Shares, the fair market value of such Shares shall be determined by three appraisers, one designated within five days after the termination of said 30-day period by the Optionee or his or her legal representatives (which appraiser shall not be the Optionee or his or her legal representative), one within said period of five days by the Company (which appraiser shall not be an officer, director or employee of the Company) and the third within five days after said appointment last occurring by the two appraisers so chosen. Successor appraisers, if any shall be required, shall be appointed, within a reasonable time, as nearly as may be in the manner provided as to the related original appointment. No appointment shall be deemed as having been accomplished unless such appraiser shall have accepted in writing his appointment as such within the time limited for his appointment. Notice of each appointment of an appraiser shall be given promptly to the other parties in interest. Any expenses relating to the appointment and service of an appraiser shall be paid by the party appointing such appraiser or, in the case of the appraiser appointed by the appraisers chosen by the Company and the Optionee, shall be paid by the Company. Said appraisers shall proceed promptly to determine the fair market value of said Share or Shares by agreement of any two of the appraisers, which shall be conclusive upon all parties in interest in such Shares. Promptly following such determination, the appraisers shall mail or deliver such notice of such determination to the Optionee and the Company.
Repurchase Events The Seller hereby covenants and agrees that if the Seller discovers or is notified by a Requesting Party with a Repurchase Request regarding a breach of any of the Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3.02(b) at the time such representations and warranties were made, the Seller will investigate the Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders and triggers a repurchase event (“Repurchase Event”). Upon discovery by any party hereto of a Repurchase Event, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other parties hereto; provided, that delivery of a Servicer’s Certificate shall be deemed to constitute prompt written notice thereof to the other party; provided, further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Seller under this Section 7.02. Following a Repurchase Event, the Seller shall either (a) correct or cure such breach or (b) purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach from the Issuer, in either case on or before the Payment Date following the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if the Seller elects, an earlier Payment Date) after the date that the Seller became aware of or was notified and confirmed such breach. Any such breach or failure will be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the Noteholders or the Issuer if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of the Issuer or the Noteholders to receive and retain timely payment in full on such Receivable. Any such purchase by the Seller shall be at a price equal to the Purchased Amount. In consideration for such repurchase, the Seller shall make (or shall cause to be made) a payment to the Issuer equal to the Purchased Amount by depositing such amount into the Collection Account on the Business Day preceding the Payment Date of repurchase (or, if the Seller elects, an earlier Payment Date). Upon payment of such Purchased Amount by the Seller, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall release and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee any Receivable repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the right to cause the Seller to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Owner Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee will have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 7.02.
Repurchase upon Change of Control (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right, if any, to redeem the Senior Notes in full, the Company shall offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase any and all of each Holder’s Senior Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company shall be required to mail a notice to each Holder of the Senior Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Registrar, with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Senior Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no less than 30 days and no more than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), with the following information:
(i) a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 2.9 and that all Senior Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment;
(ii) the repurchase price and the Change of Control Payment Date;
(iii) any Senior Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;
(iv) unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Senior Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date;
(v) Holders electing to have any Senior Notes repurchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Senior Notes, in the form set forth in Exhibit A entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase”, on the reverse of such Senior Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third business day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;
(vi) Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Senior Notes and their election to require the Company to repurchase such Senior Notes, provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the last day of the Change of Control Offer period, a facsimile transmission, an email or a letter setting forth the name of the Holder of Senior Notes, the principal amount of Senior Notes tendered for repurchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his tendered Senior Notes and his election to have such Senior Notes repurchased;
(vii) if such notice is mailed prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control; and
(viii) that Holders whose Senior Notes are being repurchased only in part will be issued new Senior Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Senior Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
(b) While the Senior Notes are in global form and the Company makes an offer to repurchase all of the Senior Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the repurchase of the Senior Notes through the facilities of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, subject to their rules and regulations.
(c) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Supplemental Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and the third party repurchases on the applicable date all Senior Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, provided that a failure by such third party to comply with the requirements of such Change of Control Offer and to complete such Change of Control Offer shall be treated as a failure by the Company to comply with its obligations to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes unless the Company promptly makes an offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the date of repurchase, which shall be no later than 30 days after the third party’s scheduled Change of Control Payment Date, or (2) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture as described under Section 4.03 of the Base Indenture, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control.
(d) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Senior Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control repurchase provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 2.9 of this Supplemental Indenture by virtue thereof.
(e) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law,
(i) accept or cause a third party to accept for payment all Senior Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;
(ii) deposit or cause a third party to deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Senior Notes properly tendered; and
(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Senior Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the principal amount of Senior Notes being repurchased.
(f) The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of Senior Notes the Change of Control Payment for such Senior Notes. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.
Repurchase Right (i) (A) At any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the lesser of (1) the purchase price per Share as provided herein or (2) the Current Market Price (as defined herein) of the Common Stock; and (B) at any time on or after the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the Current Market Price of the Common Stock. Such right of the Company may be exercised by providing a notice of repurchase (the “Repurchase Notice”) to the Purchaser not less than five business days prior to the date repurchase is to be made pursuant to this Section 4(e), specifying the date of such repurchase (the “Repurchase Date”) and the number of shares of Class B Stock to be repurchased. The Repurchase Notice having been so given by the Company, the aggregate repurchase price for the shares of Class B Stock to be so repurchased shall become due and payable on the Repurchase Date.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement:
(A) “Current Market Price” per share of a security at any date herein shall mean the average daily Closing Price (as defined herein) of such security for the 20 consecutive Trading Days (as defined herein) preceding such date (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event involving a change in such security); provided, however, that in the case of the Common Stock, where no public market exists for the Common Stock at the time of exchange, the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock shall be as determined by an independent investment banking firm experienced in the valuation of securities of property and casualty insurance companies and selected by the Company (at the Company’s expense); provided that, after receipt of the determination by such firm, the Purchaser shall have the right to select (at the expense of the Purchaser) a second such investment banking firm to make such determination, in which case the Current Market Price shall be the average of the two determinations; and provided further that such determination need not be made more frequently than once every six months and any determination shall be superceded by a good faith determination by the Company’s board of directors that shall be required if a material event reasonably likely to affect the value of the Common Stock (such as a placement of equity securities) should occur after the next preceding determination, whether by an investment banking firm or firms, or by the Company’s board of directors.
Repurchase Provisions If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuers have previously or concurrently delivered a redemption notice with respect to all outstanding Notes pursuant to Section 5.7 of the Indenture, each Holder will have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase from each Holder all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Amounts, if any), if any, to but excluding the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. Upon certain Asset Dispositions, the Issuers may be required to use the Excess Proceeds from such Asset Dispositions to offer to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes (that is $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) and, at the Issuers’ option, Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Amounts, if any), if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.5 and in Article V of the Indenture.
Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days or more than 35 Business Days following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article XIV.
(b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 14.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:
(i) delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached to this Indenture as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (subject to postponement to comply with changes in applicable law after the date of this Indenture); and
(ii) delivery of the Notes to be repurchased, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:
(iii) the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase;
(iv) the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and
(v) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the two preceding sentences, if the Notes are Global Notes, then the Holder must instead comply with the applicable Depositary procedures to exercise the Fundamental Change repurchase right. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, a Holder that has exercised its Fundamental Change repurchase right with respect to any Note may withdraw such exercise in accordance with Section 14.02. The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof or any corresponding exercise or withdrawal pursuant to the applicable Depositary procedures.
(c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:
(i) the events causing the Fundamental Change;

(ix) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes. No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 14.01. At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been canceled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
Repurchase at Option of Holders (a) Each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash on any Business Day during the three-month period commencing on the third (3rd) anniversary of the date of this Indenture (the “Repurchase Period”) (the Business Day specified by such Holder on which the Notes are required to be repurchased, at the election of each Holder, pursuant to this Section 15.01, the “Repurchase Date”), all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof that is an integral multiple of US$1,000 principal amount, at a repurchase price (the “Third Anniversary Repurchase Price”) that is equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, (ii) a premium equal to 20% of the principal amount thereof, and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Repurchase Date; provided (i) that any such accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid not to the Holders submitting the Notes for repurchase on the Repurchase Date but instead to the Holders of such Notes at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Repurchase Date and (ii) any Repurchase Date shall not be earlier than the 20th Business Day immediately following the delivery of the relevant Repurchase Notice. Not later than 20 Business Days prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the date of this Indenture, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Company Notice”) by first class mail to the Trustee, to the Paying Agent and to each Holder at its address shown in the Note Register of the Note Registrar (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law). The Company Notice shall include a form of Repurchase Notice to be completed by a holder and shall state:
(i) [reserved];
(ii) the Third Anniversary Repurchase Price;
(iii) the Repurchase Period;

Simultaneously with providing the Company Notice, the Company shall publish a notice containing the information included in the Company Notice in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York or publish such information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time. No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 15.01. Repurchases of Notes under this Section 15.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:
(A) delivery to the Paying Agent by the Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 3 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in global notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case during the period beginning at any time from the open of business on the date that is 20 Business Days prior to the first day of the Repurchase Period until the close of business on the date that is 20 Business Days prior to the last day of the Repurchase Period;
(B) delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) at the Paying Agent Office, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Third Anniversary Repurchase Price therefor.

(E) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture; provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the Repurchase Notice must comply with appropriate Depositary procedures. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 15.01 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date (the “Repurchase Expiration Time”) by delivery of a duly completed written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.03. The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof. No Repurchase Notice with respect to any Notes may be delivered and no Note may be surrendered for repurchase pursuant to this Section 15.01 by a Holder thereof to the extent such Holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect to such Note in accordance with Section 15.02 and not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.03.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company at the option of the Holders on the Repurchase Date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such Repurchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a default by the Company in the payment of the Third Anniversary Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Third Anniversary Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been cancelled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
REPURCHASE OR REDEMPTION OF SHARES (a) Any of the outstanding Shares of a Fund may be tendered for redemption at any time, and each Fund agrees to redeem its Shares so tendered in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in its Prospectus. The price to be paid to redeem the Shares shall be equal to the net asset value determined as set forth in the Prospectus less any applicable contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"). Upon any redemption of Shares the Fund shall pay the total amount of the redemption price in New York Clearing House funds in accordance with applicable provisions of the Prospectus.
(b) The redemption by a Fund of any of its Class A Shares purchased by or through the Distributor will not affect the applicable front-end sales charge secured by the Distributor or any Selected Dealer in the course of the original sale, except that if any Class A Shares are tendered for redemption within seven business days after the date of the confirmation of the original purchase, the right to the applicable front-end sales charge shall be forfeited by the Distributor and the Selected Dealer which sold such Shares.
(c) The proceeds of any redemption of Class A, Class B or Class C Shares shall be paid by each Fund as follows:
(i) any applicable CDSC shall be paid to the Distributor or to the Selected Dealer, or, when applicable, pursuant to the Rules of the Association of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), retained by the Fund and (ii) the balance shall be paid to the redeeming shareholders, in each case in accordance with applicable provisions of its Prospectus in New York Clearing House funds. The Distributor is authorized to direct a Fund to pay directly to the Selected Dealer any CDSC payable by a Fund to the Distributor in respect of Class A, Class B, or Class C Shares sold by the Selected Dealer to the redeeming shareholders.
(d) The Distributor is authorized, as agent for the Fund, to repurchase Shares, represented by a share certificate which is delivered to any office of the Distributor in accordance with applicable provisions set forth in each Fund's Prospectus. The Distributor shall promptly transmit to the transfer agent of the Fund for redemption all Shares so delivered. The Distributor shall be responsible for the accuracy of instructions transmitted to the Fund's transfer agent in connection with all such repurchases.
(e) The Distributor is authorized, as agent for each Fund, to repurchase Shares held in a shareholder's account with a Fund for which no share certificate has been issued, upon the telephonic request of the shareholders, or at the discretion of the Distributor. The Distributor shall promptly transmit to the transfer agent of the Fund, for redemption, all such orders for repurchase of Shares. Payment for Shares repurchased may be made by a Fund to the Distributor for the account of the shareholder. The Distributor shall be responsible for the accuracy of instructions transmitted to the Fund's transfer agent in connection with all such repurchases.
(f) Redemption of its Shares or payment by a Fund may be suspended at times when the New York Stock Exchange is closed, when trading on said Exchange is restricted, when an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by a Fund of securities owned by it is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable for a Fund fairly to determine the value of its net assets, or during any other period when the SEC, by order, so permits.
(g) With respect to its Shares tendered for redemption or repurchase by any Selected Dealer on behalf of its customers, the Distributor is authorized to instruct the transfer agent of a Fund to accept orders for redemption or repurchase directly from the Selected Dealer on behalf of the Distributor and to instruct the Fund to transmit payments for such redemptions and repurchases directly to the Selected Dealer on behalf of the Distributor for the account of the shareholder. The Distributor shall obtain from the Selected Dealer, and shall maintain, a record of such orders.
