Distribution Assistance Fees (Asset-Based Sales Charge) Payments In its sole discretion and irrespective of whichever alternative method of making service fee payments to Recipients is selected by the Distributor, in addition the Distributor may make distribution assistance fee payments to a Recipient quarterly, or at such other interval as deemed appropriate by the Distributor, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter or other period, at a rate not to exceed 0.1875% (0.75% on an annual basis) of the average during the period of the aggregate net asset value of Shares computed as of the close of each business day constituting Qualified Holdings owned beneficially or of record by the Recipient or its Customers until such Shares are redeemed or converted to another class of shares of the Fund, provided, however, that a majority of the Independent Trustees may, but are not obligated to, set a time period (the "Recipient Maximum Holding Period") for making such payments. Distribution assistance fee payments shall be made only to Recipients that are registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer or are exempt from registration. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Recipients in connection with the sale of Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: distributing sales literature and prospectuses other than those furnished to current Shareholders, providing compensation to and paying expenses of personnel of the Recipient who support the distribution of Shares by the Recipient, and providing such other information and services in connection with the distribution of Shares as the Distributor or the Fund may reasonably request.
Sales Charge Shares shall be sold by you at net asset value plus a front-end sales charge not in excess of 8.5% of the offering price, but which front-end sales charge shall be proportionately reduced or eliminated for larger sales and under other circumstances, in each case on the basis set forth in the current Prospectus and/or SAI. The redemption proceeds of shares offered and sold at net asset value with or without a front-end sales charge may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") under the circumstances described in the current Prospectus and\or SAI. You may reallow such portion of the front-end sales charge to dealers or cause payment (which may exceed the front-end sales charge, if any) of commissions to brokers through which sales are made, as you may determine, and you may pay such amounts to dealers and brokers on sales of shares from your own resources (such dealers and brokers shall collectively include all domestic or foreign institutions eligible to offer and sell the Shares), and in the event the Fund has more than one Series or class of Shares outstanding, then you may impose a front-end sales charge and/or a CDSC on Shares of one Series or one class that is different from the charges imposed on Shares of the Fund's other Series or class(es), in each case as set forth in the current Prospectus and/or SAI, provided the front-end sales charge and CDSC to the ultimate purchaser do not exceed the respective levels set forth for such category of purchaser in the current Prospectus and/or SAI.
Distribution Assistance Fees (Asset-Based Sales Charge) Within ten (10) days of the end of each month or at such other period as deemed appropriate by the Distributor, the Fund will make payments in the aggregate amount of up to 0.75% on an annual basis of the average during the month of the aggregate net asset value of Shares computed as of the close of each business day (the “Asset-Based Sales Charge”) outstanding until such Shares are redeemed or converted to another class of shares of the Fund, provided, however, that a majority of the Independent Trustees may, but are not obligated to, set a time period (the “Fund Maximum Holding Period”) from time to time for such payments. Such Asset-Based Sales Charge payments received from the Fund will compensate the Distributor for providing distribution assistance in connection with the sale of Shares. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Distributor in connection with the Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (i) paying sales commissions to any broker, dealer, bank or other person or entity that sells Shares, and/or paying such persons “Advance Service Fee Payments” (as defined below) in advance of, and/or in amounts greater than, the amount provided for in Section 3(b) of this Agreement; (ii) paying compensation to and expenses of personnel of the Distributor who support distribution of Shares by Recipients; (iii) obtaining financing or providing such financing from its own resources, or from an affiliate, for the interest and other borrowing costs of the Distributor's unreimbursed expenses incurred in rendering distribution assistance and administrative support services to the Fund; and (iv) paying other direct distribution costs, including without limitation the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses (other than those prospectuses furnished to current holders of the Fund's shares ("Shareholders")) and state "blue sky" registration expenses.
Allocation of Applied Realized Loss Amounts Any Applied Realized Loss Amounts shall be allocated by the Trustee to the most junior Class of Subordinated Certificates then Outstanding in reduction of the Class Certificate Balance thereof.
Allocations of Finance Charge Collections The Servicer shall allocate to the Series 1997-1 Certificateholders and retain in the Collection Account for application as provided herein an amount equal to the product of (A) the Floating Allocation Percentage and (B) the Series 1997-1 Allocation Percentage and (C) the aggregate amount of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables deposited in the Collection Account on such Deposit Date.
Deferred Sales Charge If the prospectus related to the Trust specifies a deferred sales charge, the Trustee shall, on the dates specified in and as permitted by such Prospectus (the "Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates"), withdraw from the Capital Account, an amount per Unit specified in such Prospectus and credit such amount to a special non-Trust account designated by the Depositor out of which the deferred sales charge will be distributed to or on the order of the Depositor on such Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates (the "Deferred Sales Charge Account"). If the balance in the Capital Account is insufficient to make such withdrawal, the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor, advance funds in an amount required to fund the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of additional monies in the Capital Account, and/or sell Securities and credit the proceeds thereof to the Deferred Sales Charge Account, provided, however, that the aggregate amount advanced by the Trustee at any time for payment of the deferred sales charge shall not exceed $15,000. Such direction shall, if the Trustee is directed to sell a Security, identify the Security to be sold and include instructions as to the execution of such sale. In the absence of such direction by the Depositor, the Trustee shall sell Securities sufficient to pay the deferred sales charge (and any unreimbursed advance then outstanding) in full, and shall select Securities to be sold in such manner as will maintain (to the extent practicable) the relative proportion of number of shares of each Security then held. The proceeds of such sales, less any amounts paid to the Trustee in reimbursement of its advances, shall be credited to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If a Unit holder redeems Units prior to full payment of the deferred sales charge, the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related Prospectus and, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, on the Redemption Date, withhold from the Redemption Price payable to such Unit holder an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If the Trust is terminated for reasons other than that set forth in Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related Prospectus on the termination of the Trust, withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If the Trust is terminated pursuant to Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall not withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders any amounts of unpaid deferred sales charges. If pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Depositor shall purchase a Unit tendered for redemption prior to the payment in full of the deferred sales charge due on the tendered Unit, the Depositor shall pay to the Unit holder the amount specified under Section 5.02, which amount, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, shall be reduced by the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge. All advances made by the Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be secured by a lien on the Trust prior to the interest of the Unit holders. If the related Prospectus provides that the deferred sales charge shall accrue on a daily basis, the "unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge" as used in this paragraph shall mean the accrued and unpaid deferred sales charge as of the date of redemption or termination, as appropriate. The Depositor represents that the price paid by any Unit holder for Units acquired through reinvestment of Trust distributions will be reduced by the aggregate amount of unpaid deferred sales charge at the time of the purchase to off set any subsequent collection by the Depositor of deferred sales charge in respect of the Units so acquired." Z. Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby amended by adding the following new Section 3.14:
Payments from Available Funds Only All payments to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made only from the amounts that constitute Scheduled Payments, Special Payments and other payments under the Operative Agreements, including payment under Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements and payments under Section 2.14 of the Indentures, and only to the extent that the Borrower shall have sufficient income or proceeds therefrom to enable the Borrower to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof after giving effect to the priority of payments provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The Liquidity Provider agrees that it will look solely to such amounts to the extent available for distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement and that the Borrower, in its individual capacity, is not personally liable to it for any amounts payable or liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Participation Agreement. Amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account shall be available to the Borrower to make payments under this Agreement only to the extent and for the purposes expressly contemplated in Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Payments, Computations, Etc (a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Borrower hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day when due in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds and any amount not received before such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Secured Parties interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder at 2.00% per annum above the Prime Rate, payable on demand; provided that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Such interest shall be for the account of the applicable Secured Party. All computations of interest and other fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days (other than calculations with respect to the Base Rate, which shall be based on a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days elapsed. (b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of Interest or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be. For avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Available Funds are insufficient on any Payment Date to satisfy the full amount of any Increased Costs pursuant to Section 2.12, such unpaid amounts shall remain due and owing and shall accrue interest as provided in Section 2.10(a) until repaid in full. (c) If any Advance requested by the Borrower is not effectuated as a result of the failure to fulfill any condition under Section 3.2 (other than any condition that is waived by the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, whichever of the Collateral Manager or the Borrower is at fault, such Person shall indemnify the applicable Lender against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by the applicable Lender, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the applicable Lender to fund or maintain such Advance upon receipt by the Borrower of documentation setting forth such costs.
Excess Cash Flow In the event that there shall be Excess Cash Flow in excess of $2,500,000 for any Fiscal Year, the Borrower shall, not later than the tenth Business Day following the date that is ninety days after the end of such Fiscal Year, prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 50% (provided that (i) such prepayment percentage shall be 25% if, as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Year, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio (determined for any such period by reference to the Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(c) calculating the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such Fiscal Year) shall be 1.80:1.00 or less and (ii) no such prepayment shall be required by this clause (e) if the foregoing Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such Fiscal Year shall be 1.30:1.00 or less) of the entire Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year minus 100% of voluntary repayments of the Loans made during such Fiscal Year with Internally Generated Cash; provided, that, if at the time that any such prepayment would be required, the Borrower is required to repay or repurchase or to offer to repurchase or repay Senior Secured Debt permitted pursuant to Section 6.1 pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with all or a portion of such Excess Cash Flow (such Senior Secured Debt required to be repaid or repurchased or to be offered to be so repaid or repurchased, “Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply such Excess Cash Flow on a pro rata basis to the prepayment of the Loans and to the repayment or re-purchase of Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) shall be reduced accordingly (for purposes of this proviso pro rata basis shall be determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness at such time, with it being agreed that the portion of Excess Cash Flow allocated to the Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Excess Cash Flow required to be allocated to the Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such net proceeds shall be allocated to the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof); provided further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable ECF Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.
Allocation of Realized Losses Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, that resulted from any Cash Liquidation, Servicing Modification, Debt Service Reduction, Deficient Valuation or REO Disposition that occurred during the related Prepayment Period or, in the case of a Servicing Modification that constitutes a reduction of the interest rate on a Mortgage Loan, the amount of the reduction in the interest portion of the Monthly Payment due during the related Due Period. The amount of each Realized Loss shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate. All Realized Losses, other than Excess Special Hazard Losses, Extraordinary Losses, Excess Bankruptcy Losses or Excess Fraud Losses, shall be allocated as follows: first, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; second, to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; third, to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Class M-3 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Class M-2 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Class M-1 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and, thereafter, if any such Realized Losses are on a Discount Mortgage Loan, to the Class A-P Certificates in an amount equal to the Discount Fraction of the principal portion thereof, and the remainder of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans and the entire amount of such Realized Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage Loans will be allocated among all the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-V Certificates and Class A-P Certificates) in the case of the principal portion of such loss on a pro rata basis and among all of the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-P Certificates) in the case of the interest portion of such loss on a pro rata basis, as described below. Any Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess Bankruptcy Losses, Excess Fraud Losses, Extraordinary Losses on Non-Discount Mortgage Loans will be allocated among the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-P Certificates) and Subordinate Certificates, on a pro rata basis, as described below. The principal portion of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans will be allocated to the Class A-P Certificates in an amount equal to the Discount Fraction thereof and the remainder of such Realized Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans and the entire amount of such Realized Losses on Non- Discount Mortgage Loans will be allocated among the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-P Certificates) and Subordinate Certificates, on a pro rata basis, as described below. As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro rata basis" among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution Date in the case of the principal portion of a Realized Loss or based on the Accrued Certificate Interest thereon payable on such Distribution Date (without regard to any Compensating Interest for such Distribution Date) in the case of an interest portion of a Realized Loss. Except as provided in the following sentence, any allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions) to a Class of Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated, which allocation shall be deemed to have occurred on such Distribution Date; provided that no such reduction shall reduce the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates below the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans. Any allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions) to the Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the Lowest Priority shall be made by operation of the definition of "Certificate Principal Balance" and by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). Allocations of the interest portions of Realized Losses (other than any interest rate reduction resulting from a Servicing Modification) shall be made in proportion to the amount of Accrued Certificate Interest and by operation of the definition of "Accrued Certificate Interest" and by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). Allocations of the interest portion of a Realized Loss resulting from an interest rate reduction in connection with a Servicing Modification shall be made by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). Allocations of the principal portion of Debt Service Reductions shall be made by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(a). All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby; provided that if any Subclasses of the Class A-V Certificates have been issued pursuant to Section 5.01(c), such Realized Losses and other losses allocated to the Class A-V Certificates shall be allocated among such Subclasses in proportion to the respective amounts of Accrued Certificate Interest payable on such Distribution Date that would have resulted absent such reductions.
