Preservation of Sellers’ Rights of Recovery Without the prior written consent of the Sellers, the Purchasers shall not amend or modify or grant a waiver under (or agree to amend or modify or grant a waiver under) any Serviced Corporate Trust Contract with respect to any Serviced Appointment in a manner that would materially reduce or materially alter the rights of the Sellers to indemnification, reimbursement or recovery for any costs and expenses incurred by the Sellers or their Affiliates or agents (other than the Purchasers in their capacity as Servicer hereunder) from the sponsor, issuer, obligor, depositor or other source of funds available under the terms of any such Serviced Corporate Trust Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such amendment, modification or waiver shall not require the Sellers’ consent if the Purchasers agree in their sole discretion to indemnify the Sellers to the extent such amendment, modification or waiver reduces the Sellers’ available indemnification, reimbursement or recovery for costs and expenses under the terms of any such Serviced Corporate Trust Contract.
Allocation of Recovery Under the Bond In the event Actual Loss is suffered by any two or more of the Funds, any recovery under the Bond will be allocated among such Funds in the following manner:
a. If the Fidelity Coverage exceeds or is equal to the amount of the combined Actual Losses of the Funds suffering Actual Loss, then each such Fund shall be entitled to recover the amount of its Actual Loss.
b. If the amount of Actual Loss of each Fund suffering Actual Loss exceeds its Minimum Coverage Requirement and the amount of the Funds' combined Actual Losses exceeds the Fidelity Coverage, then each Fund shall be entitled to recover (i) its Minimum Coverage Requirement, and (ii) to the extent there exists Excess Coverage, the proportion of the Excess Coverage which its Minimum Coverage Requirement bears to the amount of the combined Minimum Coverage Requirements of the Funds suffering Actual Loss; provided, however, that if the Actual Loss of any of such Funds is less than the sum of (i) and (ii) of this subpart (b), then such difference shall be recoverable by the other Funds in proportion to their relative Minimum Coverage Requirements.
c. If (i) the amount of Actual Loss suffered by any Fund is less than or equal to its Minimum Coverage Requirement, (ii) the amount of Actual Loss of the other Funds exceeds its or their Minimum Coverage Requirement(s) and (iii) the amount of the combined Actual Losses of the Funds exceeds the Fidelity Coverage, then any Fund which has suffered an amount of Actual Loss less than or equal to its Minimum Coverage Requirement shall be entitled to recover its Actual Loss. If only one other Fund has suffered Actual Loss, it shall be entitled to recover the amount of the Fidelity Coverage remaining. If more than one other Fund has suffered Actual Loss in excess of the remaining coverage, they shall allocate such remaining coverage in accordance with Section III(b) of this Agreement.
Allocation of Recoveries (a) If more than one of the parties hereto is damaged in a single loss for which recovery is received under the policy, each such party shall receive that portion of the recovery which represents the loss sustained by that party, unless the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify such party sustaining loss.
(b) If the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify each such party sustaining a loss, the recovery shall be allocated among such parties as follows:
(i) Each Party sustaining a loss shall be allocated an amount equal to the lesser of its actual loss or the minimum amount of policy which would be required to be maintained by such party under a single insured policy (determined as of the time of loss) in accordance with the provisions of Rule 17d-1(d)(7).
(ii) The remaining portion of the proceeds shall be allocated to each party sustaining a loss not fully covered by the allocation under subparagraph (i) in the proportion that each such party's last payment of premium bears to the sum of the last such premium payments of all such parties. If such allocation would result in any party which had sustained a loss receiving a portion of the recovery in excess of the loss actually sustained, such excess portion shall be allocated among the other parties whose losses would not be fully indemnified. The allocation shall bear the same proportion as each such party's last payment of premium bears to the sum of the last premium payments of all parties entitled to receive a share of the excess. Any allocation in excess of a loss actually sustained by any such party shall be reallocated in the same manner.
No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.
Waiver of Rights No right conferred on either party under this Contract shall be deemed waived, and no breach of this Contract excused, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party claimed to have waived such right. Neither the State’s review, approval or acceptance of, nor payment for, the services required under this Contract shall be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this Contract or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of this Contract, and the Contractor shall be and remain liable to the State in accordance with applicable law for all damages to the State caused by the Contractor’s negligent performance of any of the services furnished under this Contract.
Waivers and Amendments; Non-Contractual Remedies; Preservation of Remedies This Guaranty may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. No delay on the part of any party on exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity.
Sharing of Recoveries Each Purchaser agrees that if it receives any recovery, through set-off, judicial action or otherwise, on any amount payable or recoverable hereunder in a greater proportion than should have been received hereunder or otherwise inconsistent with the provisions hereof, then the recipient of such recovery shall purchase for cash an interest in amounts owing to the other Purchasers (as return of Capital or otherwise), without representation or warranty except for the representation and warranty that such interest is being sold by each such other Purchaser free and clear of any Adverse Claim created or granted by such other Purchaser, in the amount necessary to create proportional participation by the Purchaser in such recovery. If all or any portion of such amount is thereafter recovered from the recipient, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
