ANNEX B

 

 

Procedures for Funding the Variable Funding Notes

 

1)     Pursuant to the Series 2002-1 Indenture Supplement, during the Reinvestment Period, Special Reinvestment Period and Partial Reinvestment Period, Collections that will be available on each Business Day may be remitted to PACCT, LLC to reduce the amount of funding made by the Accounts Owner.  This Business Day is referred to as an “Origination Date”.

 

2)     On any Business Day upon which additional funding is required due to a net increase in the Receivables Balance on the related Origination Date, the Accounts Owner (or the Servicer after the Interim Servicing Period) shall submit a Daily Settlement Report on the morning of the third Business Day following the Business Day of the net increase (this third Business Day is referred to as the “Increase Date”), evidencing such insufficiency to the Servicer (if during the Interim Servicing Period), the LLC Administrator, the Note Administrator and each of the Secondary Purchasers no later than 7:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such Increase Date.

 

3)     On the Increase Date, if available funds that have accumulated since the first Business Day in that calendar month in the Collection Account held by the Note Administrator are not sufficient to fund the amount requested with respect to the related Origination Date, the Servicer shall request the Reserve Account Administrator withdraw funds from the Reserve Account to the extent required in order to purchase a new balance in the Variable Funding Note (the “VFN”) which is held by the Purchaser.  The Reserve Account will be created pursuant to a Reserve Account Agreement between the LLC and the Reserve Account Administrator named therein.

 

4)     As provided in the Series 2002-1 Indenture Supplement and in the Amended and Restated LLC Agreement, if on any Increase Date funding is required and to the extent Collections, amounts in the Reserve Account are insufficient to fund new Receivables for that date, each of the Members will be notified and will be required to make mandatory capital contributions as needed that day equal to its VFN Commitment Share of the amount needed to fund the additional VFN balance and to restore the Reserve Account balance.

 

5)     To the extent that a Member defaults in making such contribution or to the extent the LLC is unable to fund such Member’s VFN Commitment Share of the Net Purchase Requirement (an “Affected Member”), the Servicer, on behalf of the Note Administrator, will exercise the rights under the VFN Purchase Agreement to cause the Affected Member in its capacity as Secondary Purchaser to directly fund a portion of the VFN equal to the amount that the Affected Member should have contributed to the LLC for such purpose.

6)     VFN purchases by a Secondary Purchaser will be limited to the lesser of (i) the available VFN Purchase Commitment applicable to such Secondary Purchaser and (ii) such Secondary Purchaser’s VFN Commitment Share (as defined in the VFN Funding Agreement) of the amount requested.  Any purchase by a Secondary Purchaser will be made directly by such Secondary Purchaser through a VFN held by the Secondary Purchaser.  All VFNs (including the VFN held by the LLC) shall be VFNs of the same Series.

 

7)     The performance of a Member’s obligations under the VFN Purchase Agreement will be guaranteed or otherwise supported by such Member’s Credit Support Provider.  If a Secondary Purchaser fails to fund its commitment pursuant to the VFN Funding Agreement, the Servicer on behalf of PACCT, LLC will notify such Member’s Credit Support Provider and the non-affected Members and will enforce the Credit Support Provider’s obligations to fund or to cause such Secondary Member to fund the  obligations of the Secondary Member under the VFN Purchase Agreement in accordance with the applicable credit support agreement.

 

8)     If a Credit Support Provider fails to fulfill such obligations, the non-affected Member or Members will have the opportunity to make a loan on behalf of the Affected Member to the applicable LLC to fund such commitment.  If such loans are not repaid to the non-affected Member or Members making such loan, Percentage Interests in the LLC will be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated LLC Agreement.

 

9)     Under the VFN Purchase Agreement, each Member’s available commitment will be reduced from time to time by its share of funds used to purchase VFNs, whether coming from capital contributions, payments made under the VFN Purchase Agreement, draws under the applicable credit support agreements or amounts withdrawn from the Reserve Account.  The commitments will also be subject to change according to a dynamic formula based on certain minimums and the aggregate Open To Buy amounts with respect to the Accounts.  The Note Administrator will be responsible for monitoring such commitment amounts, provided that the Servicer shall furnish the Note Administrator with all information necessary to monitor such amounts.

 

10)   To the extent funding does not occur by the end of such Increase Date, the funding will be deemed to have been made by the holder of the Transferor Amount.  The Servicer shall notify the LLC and each of the applicable Members and Credit Support Providers.  In accordance with the terms of the Accounts Ownership and Administration Agreement, during the next two Business Days, the non-affected Members may fund the Affected Member’s share in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated LLC Agreements.  Further, the Accounts Owner and the Secondary Purchasers may agree to waive certain conditions and allow such Secondary Purchasers to fund requested amounts after the second Business Day.

Timeline

(each of the following times is the deadline for such actions on an Increase Date and is New York City time)

 

•       7:00 a. m.  The Accounts Owner (during the Interim Servicing Period) or the Servicer (after the Interim Servicing Period) will issue the Daily Settlement Report with respect to the related Origination Date to PACCT, the LLC Adminsitrator, the Note Administrator, the Servicer (during the Interim Servicing Period) and the Members outlining the funding excess or shortfall for the related Origination Date.

•       11:00 a.m.  The Servicer shall submit a report to the Note Administrator outlining any shortfall and the report shall:

a)     Determine the amount of funds available in the Collection Account from Collections on Receivables since the first Business Day in that calendar month.

b)    If the funds calculated in (a) above are sufficient to cover the shortfall, then the Servicer will instruct the Note Administrator to remit such funds to PACCT, LLC and will submit a report to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Administrator, PACCT, LLC and the Members, with no further action required.

c)     If the funds calculated in (a) above are not sufficient to cover the shortfall, then the Servicer, acting on behalf of the Note Administrator, will determine whether VFN funding is necessary, whether amounts in the Reserve Account will be adequate for such purpose, whether additional amounts will be required from the LLC or its Members to purchase the new balance of the VFN and whether the LLC will be required to make a payment to the Reserve Account to restore it to its required balance.  The Servicer will submit a report to the Note Administrator, PACCT, LLC and the Secondary Purchasers outlining these amounts.

d)    In addition, if the amount in the Reserve Account is sufficient to cover the required VFN funding, then the Servicer will instruct the Reserve Account Administrator (in accordance with the notice requirements of Section 7.3 of the VFN Purchase Agreement) to remit such funds to PACCT, LLC and shall instruct the Note Administrator to remit any funds available in the Collection Account from Collections on Receivables since the first Business Day of the current month (in accordance with the report submitted from the Servicer by 11:00 a.m.), with no further action required.

•       1:00p.m.  The Members will confirm to the Servicer the amount of their respective capital contributions to be made on such Day, and will initiate wires to PACCT, LLC no later than 3:00 p.m.

 

 If, by 1:00 p.m., a Member fails to confirm to the Servicer that it will make its required capital contribution, it will be deemed an Affected Member. In such event, the Servicer shall use commercial reasonable efforts to implement the following steps (the “Further Administrative Steps”):

i.      The Servicer shall exercise the rights under the VFN Purchase Agreement to cause the Affected Member in its capacity as Secondary Purchaser to directly fund a portion of the VFN equal to the amount that the Affected Member should have contributed to the LLC for such purpose;

 

32



 

ii.    If a Secondary Purchaser fails to fund its commitment pursuant to the VFN Purchase Agreement, the Servicer on behalf of PACCT, LLC will notify such Member’s Credit Support Provider and the non-affected Members and will enforce the Credit Support Provider’s obligations to fund or to cause such Secondary Member to fund the  obligations of the Secondary Member under the VFN Purchase Agreement in accordance with the applicable credit support agreement; and

iii.   If a Credit Support Provider fails to fulfill such obligations, the non-affected Member or Members will have the opportunity to make a loan on behalf of the Affected Member to the applicable LLC to fund such commitment.  If such loans are not repaid to the non-affected Member or Members making such loan, Percentage interests in the LLC will be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated LLC Agreement.  The Servicer shall inform the non-affected Member or Members of this opportunity and will coordinate with such Members to conduct the fund transfer process.

•       5:30 p.m.  Servicer shall determine the aggregate amount funded that Business Day with respect to the Net Purchase Requirement and shall confirm the available Commitment Amounts with the Note Administrator, and shall notify the Note Administrator and the Accounts Owner of the respective amounts funded by each holder of a VFN.  The Note Administrator shall increase the applicable VFN Note Balance on the registry maintained by the Note Administrator, and the Servicer shall maintain records of the available commitments under the VFN Purchase Agreement.  The Servicer will submit a report to the Accounts Owner and to each Secondary Purchaser at the end of each Increase Date Day outlining the day’s activity.

 

If the Servicer is notified by the Note Administrator that a wire reported on the 5:30 p.m. report from any Increase Day was not in fact received, then the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement the Further Administrative Steps.
