(iii) does not extend the term of this Addendum at the end of the Initial Term or any three-month renewal term thereafter, (A) Seller shall not be entitled to any Termination Fee; (B) neither party shall be responsible for paying any deboarding or boarding fees, and (C) (I) each of Seller and Holdings shall pay 50% of the aggregate Servicing Transfer Costs incurred by such parties in connection with transferring the servicing to a successor servicer or subservicer if either (I) the NRM Subservicing Agreement has not been terminated or (ii) such costs are incurred on or prior to 90 days following the Effective Date of Termination of the NRM Subservicing Agreement and (II) thereafter, Holdings shall pay all Servicing Transfer Costs incurred by such parties in connection with transferring the servicing to a successor servicer or subservicer; or

(iv) terminates this Addendum “for cause” pursuant to Section 5.3(a)(xxiii), (A) the Servicing Transfer Costs incurred by such parties in connection with transferring the servicing to a successor servicer or subservicer following such termination shall be paid by Seller to the extent such Servicing Transfer Costs are incurred on or prior to July 22, 2019, and any Servicing Transfer Costs incurred thereafter shall be paid by the Purchasers, (B) neither party shall be responsible for paying any deboarding or boarding fees, and (C) Seller shall not be entitled to any Termination Fee.

To the extent Holdings is obligated to pay the Termination Fee set forth above, (i) if Seller purchases the related Servicing Assets or the related Rights to MSRs and Transferred Receivables Assets under Section 5.4(c)(i)(A) or (B), such Termination Fee shall, to the extent possible, be netted against the applicable Option Price or purchase price, respectively and otherwise be paid to Seller on the applicable Termination Date and (ii) if Seller is not purchasing the related Servicing Assets or the related Rights to MSRs and Transferred Receivables Assets under Section 5.4(c)(i)(A) or (B), Holdings shall remit to the Escrow Agent, to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, one-hundred percent (100%) of the applicable Termination Fee Deposit Amount (as defined and calculated in accordance with Exhibit C-2) in immediately available funds at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Seller sending the related transferor’s notice of transfer of servicing or “goodbye letter” in accordance with the requirements of applicable law solely to the extent the Seller has complied and completed all of the servicing transfer requirements set forth in Part I of Exhibit S required to be performed on or before such date thereof; provided that Seller shall have no obligation to send any such notices until the Escrow Agent verifies to Seller that the Termination Fee Deposit Amount has been received. The Escrow Agent shall pay the Seller (i) fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Termination Fee Deposit Amount in immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after its receipt, with a copy to Holdings, from the Seller of a certification by the Seller and its third party vendor handling the mailing that the Seller has sent the related transferor’s notice of transfer of servicing or “goodbye letter” and (ii) the remaining fifty percent (50%) of the applicable Termination Fee Deposit Amount in immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after its receipt, with a copy to Holdings, from the Seller of a certification by the Seller that the Seller has completed the Servicing Transfer Requirements set forth in Part III of Exhibit S attached hereto and including the federal reference numbers and wire amounts for the funds required to be remitted in accordance with such Servicing Transfer Requirements. The Seller shall send a copy of each of the deliverables under the Servicing Transfer Requirements to Holdings at the same time it delivers such deliverable to the applicable successor servicer or subservicer. Holdings may elect to wait to transfer the servicing with respect to certain Servicing Agreements if the transfer of such Servicing Agreements would result in the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans that would remain subject to this Addendum following such transfer to be less than ten percent (10%) of the unpaid principal balance of all of the Mortgage Loans subject to this Addendum on the Effective Date of Termination. The Seller and Holdings shall use their best efforts to cooperate to enter into an Escrow Agreement containing the terms as set forth in this paragraph prior to the applicable date a payment is required to be made to the Escrow Agent as described in this paragraph and, to the extent such actions have been taken by any NRZ O/S Entity pursuant to any NRZ Servicing/Subservicing Agreement (other than the NRM Agency Subservicing Agreement), Holdings and Seller may agree to aggregate such actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Addendum, the Seller shall not be entitled to receive any Termination Fee to the extent the Effective Date of Termination occurs after the Initial Term or the parties are unable to effectuate the transfer of servicing to a successor servicer or subservicer.

Other than with respect to the Termination Fee, if applicable, all amounts payable or reimbursable under this Section 5.4(a) shall be paid or reimbursed on the Successor Transfer Date or the Termination Date, as applicable based on customary practices of estimation and true-up. To the extent that any such amounts are not known and/or invoiced by the party entitled to payment prior to the Successor Transfer Date, or the Termination Date, as applicable, such amounts shall be paid or reimbursed to the party entitled to payment within ten (10) Business Days of the other party's receipt of an invoice therefore, together with any documentation required pursuant to this Addendum.
