(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trust Depositor, for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the Loan Assets, a portion of which shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds and the remainder of which will be deemed to be a contribution to the capital of the Trust Depositor, all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Initial Loan Assets. To the extent the purchase price paid to the Seller for any Loan Assets is less than the fair market value of such Loan Assets, the difference between such fair market value and such purchase price shall be deemed to be a capital contribution made by the Seller to the Trust Depositor on the Closing Date in the case of the Initial Loans, as of the related Substitute Loan Cutoff Date in the case of any Substitute Loans and as of the related Additional Loan Cutoff Date in the case of any Additional Loans. For all purposes of this Agreement, any contributed Loan Assets shall be treated the same as Loan Assets sold for cash, including without limitation for purposes of Section 6.01.
(c) The Seller and the Trust Depositor each acknowledge with respect to itself that the representations and warranties of the Seller in Sections 3.01, 3.02 and 3.04 hereof and of the Trust Depositor in the Sale and Servicing Agreement and in Section 3.06 hereof will run to and be for the benefit of the Issuer and the Trustees, and the Issuer and the Trustees may enforce directly (without joinder of the Trust Depositor when enforcing against the Seller) the repurchase obligations of the Seller or the Trust Depositor, as applicable, with respect to breaches of such representations and warranties that materially and adversely affect the interest of any Noteholder as set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or in this Agreement.. BUSINESS.29147458.4
(d) The sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance of the Loan Assets by the Seller to the Trust Depositor pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Trust Depositor of any obligation of the Seller in connection with the Loan Assets, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including, without limitation, (i) any obligation to any Obligor relating to any unfunded commitment from the Seller, (ii) any taxes, fees, or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority and (iii) any insurance premiums that remain owing with respect to any Loan Asset at the time such Loan Asset is sold hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, (x) the Trust Depositor does not assume any obligation to purchase any additional notes or loans under agreements governing the Loan Assets and (y) the sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance of the Loan Assets by the Seller to the Trust Depositor pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Trust Depositor or the Issuer of any obligation of the Seller as lead agent, collateral agent or paying agent under any Agented Loan or Co-Agented Loan.
(e) The Seller and the Trust Depositor intend and agree that (i) the transfer of the Loan Assets by the Seller to the Trust Depositor hereunder and the transfer of the Loan Assets by the Trust Depositor to the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement are each intended to be an absolute sale, conveyance and transfer of ownership of the applicable Loan Assets, as the case may be, rather than the mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing and (ii) such Loan Assets shall not be part of the Seller’s or the Trust Depositor’s estate in the event of a filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against such Person under any Insolvency Law. In the event, however, that notwithstanding such intent and agreement, such transfers are deemed to be a mere granting of a security interest to secure indebtedness, the Seller shall be deemed to have granted (and as of the Closing Date hereby grants) to the Trust Depositor and the Trust Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and assigned (and as of the Closing Date hereby grants and assigns) to the Issuer, as the case may be, a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Seller or of the Trust Depositor, respectively, in such Loan Assets, and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under Applicable Law, securing the repayment of the purchase price paid hereunder, the obligations and/or interests represented by the Securities, in the order and priorities, and subject to the other terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the Trust Agreement, together with such other obligations or interests as may arise hereunder and thereunder in favor of the parties hereto and thereto.
(f) If any such transfer of the Loan Assets is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing, the Trust Depositor may, to secure the Trust Depositor’s own borrowing under the Sale and Servicing Agreement (to the extent that the transfer of the Loan Assets thereunder is deemed to be a mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing), repledge and reassign (i) all or a portion of the Loan Assets pledged to the Trust Depositor by the Seller and with respect to which the Trust Depositor has not released its security interest at the time of such pledge and assignment, and (ii) all proceeds thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made by the Trust Depositor with or without a repledge and reassignment by the Trust Depositor of its rights under any agreement with the Seller, and without further notice to or acknowledgment from the Seller. The Seller waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the Trust Depositor or any assignee of the Trust Depositor relating to such action by the Trust Depositor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
(g) The Seller and the Trust Depositor acknowledge and agree that, solely for administrative convenience, any assignment agreement required to be executed and delivered in connection with the transfer of an Initial Loan, Substitute Loan or Additional Loan in accordance with the terms of related Underlying Loan Agreements may reflect that the Seller or any Affiliate thereof is assigning such Initial Loan, Substitute Loan or Additional Loan directly to the Issuer. Nothing in such assignment agreements shall be deemed to impair the transfers of the Loan Assets by the Seller to the Trust Depositor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the subsequent transfer of the Loan Assets by the Trust Depositor to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
