Cooperation of Seller with a Reconstitution The Seller and the Purchaser agree that with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, after the related Closing Date, on one or more dates (each, a "Reconstitution Date") at the Purchaser's sole option, the Purchaser may effect a sale (each, a "Reconstitution") of some or all of the Mortgage Loans then subject to this Agreement, without recourse, to:
(i) Fannie Mae under its Cash Purchase Program or MBS Program (Speciax Xxxxixxxg Option) (each, a "Fannie Mae Transfer"); or
(ii) Freddie Mac (the "Freddie Mxx Xxxnxxxr"); or
(iii) one or more third party purchasers in one or more Whole Loan Transfers; or
(iv) one or more trusts or other entities to be formed as part of one or more Securitization Transfers. The Seller, on behalf of itself and the Interim Servicer, agrees to execute in connection with any Agency Transfer, any and all pool purchase contracts, and/or agreements reasonably acceptable to the Seller and the Interim Servicer, if applicable, among the Purchaser, the Seller and/or the Interim Servicer, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (as the case may be) and any servicer in connxxxxxx xxxh a Whole Loan Transfer, a seller's warranties and servicing agreement or a participation and servicing agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the parties, and in connection with a Securitization Transfer, an Assignment and Recognition Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (collectively, the agreements referred to herein as designated, the "Reconstitution Agreements"), together with an opinion of counsel with respect to such Reconstitution Agreements. With respect to each Whole Loan Transfer and each Securitization Transfer entered into by the Purchaser, the Seller, on behalf of itself and the Interim Servicer, agrees:
(1) to cooperate fully with the Purchaser and any prospective purchaser with respect to all reasonable requests and due diligence procedures;
(2) to execute, deliver and perform all Reconstitution Agreements reasonably required by the Purchaser (provided Seller and Interim Servicer, if applicable, shall be given adequate time to review and negotiate in good faith such agreements);
(3) to restate the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 9.01 and 9.02 as of the Reconstitution Date or make the representations and warranties set forth in the related selling/servicing guide of the servicer or issuer, as the case may be, or such representations or warranties as may be required by any rating agency or prospective purchaser of the related securities or such Mortgage Loans in connection with such Reconstitution; provided, that the representations and warranties contained in Subsection 9.02(m) shall be made as of the related Closing Date; and provided, further, that the representation and warranty contained in Subsection 9.02
(a) (with respect to information regarding stated principal balances and due dates), (b), the first sentence of (c), (d), (f) (other than the fifth and the seventh sentences), the first sentence of (h), the first and last sentences of (p), the first sentence of (q), (r), the first two sentences of (w), (x), (ff), (hh), (ii) (other than the first and fourth sentences), (ll), (rr), (uu) and (ggg) shall be made only as of the related Transfer Date. Notwithstanding the provisos set forth in this clause (3), the Seller shall remain liable for any breaches following the date of its restatement of the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 9.01 and 9.02 to the extent the actions of the Seller, Interim Servicer or any of their Affiliates contributed to such breaches;
(4) to deliver to Purchaser and any prospective purchaser within five (5) Business Days after written request by Purchaser or prospective purchaser, information, in form and substance satisfactory to Purchaser (provided with respect to (a) and (b) below only if the Mortgage Loans are 20% or more of the pool of assets included in such Securitization Transfer) and such prospective purchaser, with respect to each originator of the Mortgage Loans, required by Item 1110 of Regulation AB, which as of the date hereof requires the following information: (a) the originator's form of organization; and (b) to the extent material in the good faith judgment of the Purchaser, a description of the originator's origination program and how long the originator has been engaged in originating residential mortgage loans, which description must include a discussion of the originator's experience in originating mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans and, if material in the good faith judgment of the Purchaser, information regarding the size and composition of the originator's origination portfolio as well as information that may be material, in the good faith judgment of the Purchaser, to an analysis of the performance of the Mortgage Loans, such as the originators' credit-granting or underwriting criteria for mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans; and
(5) to deliver to the Purchaser and any prospective purchaser within five (5) Business Days after written request by the Purchaser, static pool information deliverable pursuant to Regulation AB relating to the mortgage loans that were originated by the Seller, which are of the same type as the Mortgage Loans, and (i) for the period during which such mortgage loans were serviced by the Seller or its agent, or (ii) were previously securitized and publicly offered by the Seller or its affiliate as the sponsor, or (iii) were included in static pool information provided by the Seller in connection with a public securitization of mortgage loans by the Seller or its affiliate, or (iv) such information as provided to the Seller by any third party purchaser or servicer (other than the Purchaser or a servicer designated by such Purchaser) together with indemnification therefor (collectively, the "Static Pool Information"). Such Static Pool Information shall be prepared by the Seller in accordance with the requirements of Regulation AB. To the extent that there is reasonably available to the Seller Static Pool Information with respect to more than one mortgage loan type, the Purchaser or any Depositor shall be entitled to specify whether some or all of such information shall be provided pursuant to clause (5) above. A vintage origination year represents mortgage loans originated during the same year. Such Static Pool Information shall be for the prior five years or for so long as the originator has been originating (in the case of data by vintage origination year) or securitizing (in the case of data by prior securitized pools) such mortgage loans, if originating for less than five years. The Static Pool Information for each vintage origination year or prior securitized pools, as applicable, shall be presented no less frequently than quarterly increments, to the extent material in the good faith judgment of the Purchaser, over the life of the mortgage loans included in the vintage origination year or prior securitized pool. The content of such Static Pool Information may be in the form customarily provided by the Seller, and need not be customized for the Purchaser or any assignee or designee thereof. The Seller and the Purchaser agree that either (i) the Seller shall provide all Static Pool Information, as described above, or (ii) solely with respect to the period of time prior to January 1, 2006, the Seller shall represent and warrant that it is unable without unreasonable effort or expense to provide Static Pool Information.
Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with Substitutions and Repurchases (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 shall be made more than 90 days after the Closing Date unless the Seller delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that such substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup Date, as defined in sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively or (ii) cause any REMIC created under this Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
(b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall promptly (and in any event within five Business Days of discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection therewith, the Trustee shall require the Seller, at the Seller's option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(c) with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan for a breach of representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 2.03.
Transfers to Permitted Transferees Prior to the transfer of Units to a Permitted Transferee (other than a transfer in connection with or subsequent to a Sale of the Company), the Executive shall deliver to Investors a written agreement of the proposed transferee (a) evidencing such Person's undertaking to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and (b) acknowledging that the Units transferred to such Person will continue to be Units for purposes of this Agreement in the hands of such Person. Any transfer or attempted transfer of Units in violation of any provision of this Agreement or the Securityholders Agreement shall be void, and Investors shall not record such transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Units as the owner of such Units for any purpose.
Permitted Transfers The provisions of Section 8.1 shall not apply to (a) a transfer or an assignment of this Lease in connection with the sale of substantially all the original Tenant’s assets if: (I) such sale of assets occurs on an arms’-length basis, to an unrelated third party, and is for a bona fide business purpose and not primarily to transfer Tenant’s interest in this Lease; and (II) upon the consummation of the transfer or assignment, the transferee or assignee is, in the sole, but reasonable determination of Landlord (and its lender, if applicable), capable of satisfying all of Tenant’s obligations hereunder; (b) an assignment of this Lease to a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar corporate restructuring or to an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Tenant; or (c) a subletting of the Premises or any part thereof. In the case of an assignment or sublease that is expressly permitted pursuant to (a) or (c) of this Section 8.3, Tenant shall nevertheless be required to provide Landlord with notice of such assignment or sublease and a true and complete copy of the fully-executed documentation pursuant to which the assignment or sublease, as applicable, has been effectuated within ten (10) business days after the effective date of such assignment or sublease. Any permitted transferee under (a) of this Section 8.3 shall execute and deliver to Landlord any and all documentation reasonably required by Landlord in order to evidence assignee’s assumption of all obligations of Tenant hereunder and to evidence the assignee’s compliance (or ability to comply) with (a)(II) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.3, in no event may Tenant assign, mortgage, transfer, pledge or sublease this Lease to any entity whatsoever if, at the time of such assignment, mortgage, transfer, pledge or sublease, a Default has occurred and remains continuing under this Lease.
Transfers Intended as Sale; Security Interest (a) Each of the parties hereto expressly intends and agrees that the transfers contemplated and effected under this Agreement are complete and absolute sales, transfers, assignments, contributions and conveyances without recourse rather than pledges or assignments of only a security interest and shall be given effect as such for all purposes. It is further the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchased Assets shall not be part of Santander Consumer’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of Santander Consumer. The sales and transfers by Santander Consumer of the Receivables and other Purchased Assets hereunder are and shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty (express or implied) by, Santander Consumer, except as otherwise specifically provided herein. The limited rights of recourse specified herein against Santander Consumer are intended to provide a remedy for breach of representations and warranties relating to the condition of the property sold, rather than to the collectability of the Receivables.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Receivables and other Purchased Assets are held to be property of Santander Consumer, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create indebtedness or a security interest in the Receivables and other Purchased Assets, then it is intended that:
(i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction;
(ii) The conveyance provided for in Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be a grant by Santander Consumer of, and Santander Consumer hereby grants to the Purchaser, a security interest in all of its right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Receivables and other Purchased Assets, to secure such indebtedness and the performance of the obligations of Santander Consumer hereunder;
(iii) The possession by the Purchaser or its agent of the Receivable Files and any other property that constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by the purchaser or a person designated by such purchaser, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; and
(iv) Notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
Certain Permitted Transfers The restrictions in this Section 4 will not apply with respect to any Transfer of Carried Shares made (i) pursuant to applicable laws of descent and distribution or to such Person’s legal guardian in the case of any mental incapacity or among such Person’s Family Group, (ii) in connection with the Company’s initial Public Offering of the Common Shares upon the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Common Shares to the extent set forth in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-120444) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2004, as amended, or (iii) at such time as the Investors sell Common Shares to any unaffiliated third party, but in the case of this clause (iii) only an amount of shares (the “Transfer Amount”) equal to the lesser of (A) the number of Vested Shares owned by Executive and (B) the number of Common Shares owned by Executive multiplied by a fraction (the “Transfer Fraction”), the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares sold by the Investors in such sale and the denominator of which is the total number of Common Shares held by the Investors prior to the sale; provided that, if at the time of such sale of Common Shares by the Investors, Executive chooses not to Transfer the Transfer Amount, Executive shall retain the right to Transfer an amount of Common Shares at a future date equal to the lesser of (x) the number of Vested Shares owned by Executive at such future date and (y) the number of Common Shares owned by Executive at such future date multiplied by the Transfer Fraction; provided further that the restrictions contained in this Section 4 will continue to be applicable to the Carried Shares after any Transfer of the type referred to in clause (i) above and the transferees of such Carried Shares must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Any transferee of Carried Shares pursuant to a Transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b)(i) is herein referred to as a “Permitted Transferee.” Upon the Transfer of Carried Shares pursuant to this Section 4(b), the transferring holder of Carried Shares will deliver a written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) to the Company. In the case of a Transfer pursuant to clause (i) hereof, the Transfer Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity of the Permitted Transferee(s).
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS 3.1 Flip-in.
(a) In the event that prior to the Expiration Time a Flip-in Date shall occur, except as provided in this Section 3.1, each Right shall constitute the right to purchase from the Company, upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof (but subject to Section 5.10), that number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Market Price on the Stock Acquisition Date equal to twice the Exercise Price for an amount in cash equal to the Exercise Price (such right to be appropriately adjusted in order to protect the interests of the holders of Rights generally in the event that on or after such Stock Acquisition Date an event of a type analogous to any of the events described in Section 2.4(a) or (b) shall have occurred with respect to the Common Stock).
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Rights that are or were Beneficially Owned on or after the Stock Acquisition Date by an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate thereof or by any transferee, direct or indirect, of any of the foregoing shall become void and any holder of such Rights (including transferees) shall thereafter have no right to exercise or transfer such Rights under any provision of this Agreement. If any Rights Certificate is presented for assignment or exercise and the Person presenting the same will not complete the certification set forth at the end of the form of assignment or notice of election to exercise and provide such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner and its Affiliates and Associates (or former Beneficial Owners and their Affiliates and Associates) as the Company shall reasonably request, then the Company shall be entitled conclusively to deem the Beneficial Owner thereof to be an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate thereof or a transferee of any of the foregoing and accordingly will deem the Rights evidenced thereby to be void and not transferable or exercisable.
(c) The Board of Directors of the Company may, at its option, at any time after a Flip-in Date and prior to the time that an Acquiring Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock elect to exchange all (but not less than all) the then outstanding Rights (which shall not include Rights that have become void pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.1(b)) for shares of Common Stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per Right, appropriately adjusted in order to protect the interests of holders of Rights generally in the event that after the Separation Time an event of a type analogous to any of the events described in Section 2.4(a) or (b) shall have occurred with respect to the Common Stock (such exchange ratio, as adjusted from time to time, being hereinafter referred to as the "Exchange Ratio").
Conditions to Permitted Transfers A Transfer shall not be treated as a Permitted Transfer under Section 9.2 hereof unless and until the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) The transferor and transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of counsel to the Company to effect such Transfer. The Company shall be reimbursed by the transferor and/or transferee for all costs and expenses that it reasonably incurs in connection with such Transfer.
(b) The transferor and transferee shall furnish the Company with the transferee's taxpayer identification number, sufficient information to determine the transferee's initial tax basis in the Interest transferred, and any other information reasonably necessary to permit the Company to file all required federal and state tax returns and other legally required information statements or returns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any distribution otherwise provided for in this Agreement with respect to any transferred Interest until it has received such information.
(c) The transferee of Interests (other than, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) below, a transferee that was a Member prior to the Transfer) shall, by written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the nontransferring Member (and, in the case of clause (iii) below, the transferor Member), (i) make representations and warranties to the nontransferring Member equivalent to those set forth in Section 6, (ii) accept and adopt the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, this Section 9 and Section 11, and (iii) assume the obligations of the transferor Member under this Agreement with respect to the transferred Interest.
