If a Repurchase Agreement between Rental ULC and an Eligible Manufacturer in respect of Vehicle models for a particular Model Year is not entered into by February 28 of such Model Year or, if such Repurchase Agreement has been entered into by February 28 of such Model Year but the Rating Agency has notified Rental ULC in writing within 30 days of receipt of a signed copy of such Repurchase Agreement that it is not satisfied with the terms and conditions of such Repurchase Agreement, then thereafter for all purposes hereof all Rental ULC Vehicles covered by such Repurchase Agreement shall be deemed to be Non-Program Vehicles.

 

  (c) If a Repurchase Agreement between Rental ULC and an Eligible Manufacturer in respect of Vehicle models for a particular Model Year is entered into prior to February 28 of such Model Year and the Rating Agency has not notified Rental ULC in writing within 30 days of receipt of a signed copy of such Repurchase Agreement that it is not satisfied with the terms and conditions of such Repurchase Agreement, then thereafter for all purposes hereof Rental ULC Vehicles covered by such Repurchase Agreement shall be deemed to be Program Vehicles.

  (iv) cause such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of clause (iii) above, all of the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Provider) to be replaced with one or more irrevocable letters of credit issued by one or more L/C Providers with an aggregate stated amount not less than the aggregate undrawn stated amount of the affected Letter(s) of Credit, or make any other arrangement which satisfies the Rating Agency Condition; or

 

  (v) cause draws to be made under the affected Letter(s) of Credit and deposit the proceeds of such draws to the Cash Collateral (CAD) Account;

provided, however, in the event that at any time the long-term unsecured debt obligations of an L/C Provider are no longer rated or are rated below A by DBRS, or, if an L/C Provider is not then rated by DBRS, the long-term unsecured debt obligations of such L/C Provider are no longer rated A1 by Moody’s or the short-term unsecured debt obligations of such L/C Provider are no longer rated A-1 by S&P, Rental ULC shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee upon becoming aware of same and Rental ULC shall cause a draw to be made under the affected Letter(s) of Credit and deposit the proceeds of such draws to the Cash Collateral (CAD) Account.

  (b) Rental ULC may from time to time deposit Unrestricted Funds and proceeds of Contributions received by Rental ULC to the Cash Collateral Accounts. Funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Accounts shall be invested by Rental ULC in Eligible Investments from time to time, but always in a manner that will result in such investments maturing so that such funds will be available for withdrawal on or prior to the next following Remittance Date. Rental ULC shall hold possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing such investments. On each Settlement Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding Settlement Date on funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Accounts shall be deposited to the Series 2011-1 Rental Account.

 

  (c) On or after the Remittance Date on which all principal and interest owing to the Series 2011-1 Noteholders has been paid in full, Rental ULC may withdraw from the Cash Collateral Accounts all amounts on deposit therein and deposit such amounts into the Master Vehicle Account.
