Pledge or Assignment With respect to Contracts that are “electronic chattel paper”, the authoritative copy of each Contract communicated to the Custodian has no marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Trust Collateral Agent.
Assignment of Contract A. Unless expressly agreed to elsewhere in the Contract, no assignment by a party hereto of any rights under or interests in the Contract will be binding on another party hereto without the written consent of the party sought to be bound; and, specifically but without limitation, money that may become due and money that is due may not be assigned without such consent (except to the extent that the effect of this restriction may be limited by law), and unless specifically stated to the contrary in any written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any duty or responsibility under the Contract Documents.
Assignment of Management Agreement As additional collateral security for the Loan, Borrower conditionally transfers, sets over, and assigns to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Management Agreement and all extensions and renewals. This transfer and assignment will automatically become a present, unconditional assignment, at Lender’s option, upon a default by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents (each, an “Event of Default”), and the failure of Borrower to cure such Event of Default within any applicable grace period.
ASSIGNMENT TO AN AFFILIATE This Agreement may be assigned by the Advisor to an Affiliate with the approval of a majority of the Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors). The Advisor may assign any rights to receive fees or other payments under this Agreement without obtaining the approval of the Directors. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Company without the consent of the Advisor, except in the case of an assignment by the Company to a corporation or other organization which is a successor to all of the assets, rights and obligations of the Company, in which case such successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Company is bound by this Agreement.
Sale and Assignment of Master Servicing The Master Servicer may sell and assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Master Servicer under this Agreement and EMC may terminate the Master Servicer without cause and select a new Master Servicer; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (a) shall be a Person which shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddxx Xxx; (x) shxxx xxxe a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (as evidenced in a writing signed by the Trustee); and (d) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as master servicer under this Agreement, any custodial agreement from and after the effective date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency's rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the Master Servicer and the Trustee; (iii) the Master Servicer assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Independent Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement; and (iv) in the event the Master Servicer is terminated without cause by EMC, EMC shall pay the terminated Master Servicer a termination fee equal to 0.25% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time the master servicing of the Mortgage Loans is transferred to the successor Master Servicer. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.
Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement Dated as of November 30, 2012
Deed; Xxxx of Sale; Assignment To the extent required and permitted by applicable law, this Agreement shall also constitute a “deed,” “xxxx of sale” or “assignment” of the assets and interests referenced herein.
Assignment of Rents and Leases (a) Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, transfers and sets over unto Huntington and Huntington's successors and assigns all present and future leases covering all or any part of the Mortgaged Property (the "Leases"), together with any extensions or renewals thereof and any guaranties of any tenants' obligations thereunder, and all of the rents, royalties, bonuses, income, receipts, revenues, issues and profits now due or which may hereafter become due under the Leases or any extensions or renewals thereof, as well as all moneys due and to become due to Borrower under the Leases for services, materials or installations supplied whether or not the same were supplied under the terms of the Leases, all liquidated damages following default under the Leases and all proceeds payable under any policy of insurance covering loss of rents resulting from untenantability caused by damage to any part of the Mortgaged Property (such rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues, profits and other moneys assigned hereby are hereinafter collectively called "Rents"), together with any and all rights and remedies which Borrower may have against any tenant under any of the Leases or others in possession of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof for the collection or recovery of Rents so assigned. Prior to an Event of Default, as hereinafter defined, Borrower shall have a license to collect and receive all Rents as trustee for the benefit of Huntington and Borrower.
(b) Borrower hereby represents, warrants and agrees that:
(i) Borrower has good title to the Leases and Rents hereby assigned and has the right, power and capacity to make this assignment. No person or entity other than Borrower has or will have any right, title or interest in or to the Leases or Rents, except for the Permitted Encumbrances.
(ii) Borrower shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, perform and discharge all of the obligations and undertakings of the landlord under the Leases and give prompt notice to Huntington of any failure to do so. Borrower shall use all reasonable efforts to enforce or secure the performance of each and every obligation and undertaking of the tenants under the Leases and shall appear in and prosecute or defend any action or proceeding arising under, or in any manner connected with, the Leases or the obligations and undertakings of the tenants thereunder.
(iii) Borrower shall generally operate and maintain the Mortgaged Property in a manner to insure maximum Rents.
(iv) Borrower shall not pledge, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber or assign the Leases or the Rents.
(v) Borrower shall not collect Rents more than sixty (60) days prior to accrual.
(c) Huntington shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation or duty to be performed or discharged by Borrower under any of the Leases; and Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Huntington for, and to save Huntington harmless from, any and all liability, damage or expense arising from any of the Leases or from this assignment, including, without limitation, claims by tenants for security deposits or for rental payments more than one (1) month in advance and not delivered to Huntington. All amounts indemnified against hereunder, including reasonable attorneys' fees if paid by Huntington, shall bear interest at the Default Rate of Interest, as defined in the Notes, and shall be payable by Borrower immediately without demand and shall be secured hereby. This assignment shall not place responsibility for the control, care, management, or repair of the Mortgaged Property upon Huntington or make Huntington responsible or liable for any negligence in the management, operation, upkeep, repair or control of same resulting in loss or damage or injury or death to any party.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as hereinafter defined:
(i) All Rents assigned hereunder shall be paid directly to Huntington, and Huntington may notify the tenants under the Leases (or any other parties in possession of the Mortgaged Property) to pay all of the Rents directly to Huntington at the address specified in Section 27 hereof, for which this assignment shall be sufficient warrant;
(ii) Huntington shall have the right to forthwith enter and take possession of the Mortgaged Property and to manage, operate, lease and develop the same; to collect as hereunder provided all or any Rents payable under the Leases; to make repairs as Huntington deems appropriate; and to perform such other acts in connection with the management, operation, development, leasing and construction of the Mortgaged Property as Huntington, in its sole discretion, may deem proper; and
(iii) Huntington shall have the right to forthwith enter into and upon the Mortgaged Property and take possession thereof, and to appoint an agent, or in the event of the institution of foreclosure proceedings to have a receiver appointed for the collection of the Rents. In the event that Huntington shall pursue its remedies under Subsections 17(d)(ii) or (iii) above, the net income, after allowing a reasonable fee for the collection thereof and the management of the Mortgaged Property, may be applied toward the payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, repairs, protection of the Mortgaged Property or Huntington's lien thereon, and other charges against the Mortgaged Property and the costs of procurement of such insurance and of evidence of title to the Mortgaged Property, or any of them, or in the reduction of the Indebtedness and the payment of interest, as Huntington may elect. If the Rents are not sufficient to meet the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the Mortgaged Property and collecting the Rents, any funds expended by Huntington for such purposes shall become indebtedness of Borrower to Huntington secured by the Mortgage. Unless Huntington and Borrower agree in writing to other terms of payment, such amounts shall be payable upon demand from Huntington to Borrower and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the Default Rate of Interest stated in the Notes. The exercise or failure to exercise any of the above remedies shall not in any way preclude or abridge the right of Huntington to foreclose the Mortgage or to take any other legal or equitable action thereon. Huntington shall have such rights or privileges as aforesaid regardless of the value of the Mortgaged Property given as security hereunder, and regardless of the solvency or insolvency of any party bound for the payment of the Indebtedness or the other sums hereby secured.
(e) Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases to pay Rents to Huntington upon written demand by Huntington, without further consent of Borrower, and the tenants may rely upon any written statement delivered by Huntington to the tenants. Any such payment to Huntington shall constitute payment to Borrower under the Leases.
(f) There shall be no merger of the leasehold estates created by the Leases with the fee estate of the Property and Improvements without the prior written consent of Huntington.
Management of REO Property (a) Prior to the acquisition by it of title to a Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property that secures an Outside Serviced Loan Combination), the Special Servicer shall review the operation of such Mortgaged Property and determine the nature of the income that would be derived from such property if it were acquired by the Trust Fund. If the Special Servicer determines from such review that:
(i) None of the income from Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property would be subject to tax as "net income from foreclosure property" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions or would be subject to the tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F of the Code (either such tax referred to herein as an "REO Tax"), then such Mortgaged Property may be Directly Operated by the Special Servicer as REO Property;
(ii) Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property as REO Property could result in income from such property that would be subject to an REO Tax, but that a lease of such property to another party to operate such property, or the performance of some services by an Independent Contractor with respect to such property, or another method of operating such property would not result in income subject to an REO Tax, then the Special Servicer may (provided that in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, it is commercially reasonable) acquire such Mortgaged Property as REO Property and so lease or operate such REO Property; or
(iii) It is reasonable to believe that Directly Operating such property as REO Property could result in income subject to an REO Tax and that no commercially reasonable means exists to operate such property as REO Property without the Trust Fund incurring or possibly incurring an REO Tax on income from such property, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Tax Administrator, in writing, a proposed plan (the "Proposed Plan") to manage such property as REO Property. Such plan shall include potential sources of income, and, to the extent reasonably possible, estimates of the amount of income from each such source. Upon request of the Special Servicer, the Tax Administrator shall advise the Special Servicer of the Tax Administrator's federal income tax reporting position with respect to the various sources of income that the Trust Fund would derive under the Proposed Plan. After receiving the information described in the preceding sentence from the Tax Administrator, the Special Servicer shall implement the Proposed Plan (after acquiring the respective Mortgaged Property as REO Property), with any amendments required to be made thereto as a result of the Tax Administrator's tax reporting position. The Special Servicer's decision as to how each Administered REO Property shall be managed and operated shall be based on the Servicing Standard and, further, based on the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer as to which means would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Administered REO Property related to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)), as a collective whole, by maximizing (to the extent commercially reasonable and consistent with Section 3.17(b)) the net after-tax REO Revenues received with respect to such property without materially impairing the Special Servicer's ability to promptly sell such property for a fair price. In connection with performing their respective duties under this Section 3.17(a), both the Special Servicer and the Tax Administrator may consult with counsel and tax accountants, the reasonable cost of which consultation shall be covered by, and be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance to be made by the Special Servicer.
(b) If title to any Administered REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Administered REO Property related to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)) solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner that does not and will not: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code; or (ii) except as contemplated by Section 3.17(a), either result in the receipt by any REMIC Pool of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event or an Adverse Grantor Trust Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are consistent with the Servicing Standard and, consistent therewith, shall withdraw from the related REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to any Administered REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, maintenance and disposition of such REO Property, including:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;
(iii) any ground rents in respect of such REO Property; and
(iv) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain, lease, sell, protect, manage, operate and restore such REO Property. To the extent that amounts on deposit in the related REO Account in respect of any Administered REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall, at the direction of the Special Servicer, make Servicing Advances in such amounts as are necessary for such purposes unless the Master Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such payment would be a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, however, that the Master Servicer may make any such Servicing Advance without regard to recoverability if it is a necessary fee or expense incurred in connection with the defense or prosecution of legal proceedings.
(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not, with respect to any Administered REO Property:
(i) enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to such Administered REO Property, if the New Lease, by its terms would give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;
(ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;
(iii) authorize or permit any construction on such Administered REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Serviced Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or
(iv) Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate such Administered REO Property on any date more than 90 days after the related REO Acquisition; unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer, at the direction of the Special Servicer, and shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action would not cause such Administered REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code at any time that it is held by a REMIC Pool, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.
(d) The Special Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any Administered REO Property; provided that:
(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm's length;
(ii) the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be expenses of the Trust Fund and, in the case of any Administered REO Property that relates to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)) shall be reasonable and customary in consideration of the nature and locality of such Administered REO Property;
(iii) except as permitted under Section 3.17(a), any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor, in a timely manner, (A) pay out of related REO Revenues all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such Administered REO Property, including those listed in Section 3.17(b) above, and (B) except to the extent that such revenues are derived from any services rendered by the Independent Contractor to tenants of such Administered REO Property that are not customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of real property (within the meaning of Section 1.856-4(b)(5) of the Treasury regulations or any successor provision), remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;
(iv) none of the provisions of this Section 3.17(d) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of such Administered REO Property; and
(v) the Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such Administered REO Property. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations under Section 3.16 and this Section 3.17 for indemnification of the Special Servicer by any such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. No agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 3.17(d) shall be deemed a Sub-Servicing Agreement for purposes of Section 3.22.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 3.17 shall not apply to any Outside Administered REO Property.
Subcontracting; Assignment The Contractor may not subcontract any portion of the services provided under this Contract without obtaining the prior written approval of the Procurement Officer, nor may the Contractor assign this Contract or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written approval of the Procurement Officer provided, however, that a contractor may assign monies receivable under a contract after due notice to the State. Any subcontracts shall include such language as may be required in various clauses contained within this Contract, exhibits, and attachments. The Contract shall not be assigned until all approvals, documents, and affidavits are completed and properly registered. The State shall not be responsible for fulfillment of the Contractor’s obligations to its subcontractors.
