ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEW PROCESS

 

Section 3.01          Review Notices and Identification of Review Contracts.

 

On receipt of a Review Notice from the Indenture Trustee according to Section 7.04 of the Indenture, the Asset Representations Reviewer will start a Review. Once the Review Notice is issued, the Servicer will provide the list of Review Contracts to the Asset Representations Reviewer within sixty (60) days.

 

The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be obligated to start a Review until a Review Notice, the related list of Review Contracts, and the initial delivery of the Review Materials as described in Section 3.02 is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer is not obligated to verify the accuracy or completeness of the list of Review Contracts provided by the Servicer.

 

Section 3.02          Review Materials.

 

(a)          Access to Review Materials. Within sixty (60) days of the delivery of a Review Notice, the Servicer will provide the Asset Representations Reviewer with access to the Review Materials for all Review Contracts in one or more of the following ways: (i) by providing access to the Servicer’s systems, either remotely or at an office of the Servicer, (ii) by electronic posting to a password-protected website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access, (iii) by providing originals or photocopies at an office of the Servicer or (iv) in another manner agreed by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Servicer may redact or remove Personally Identifiable Information from the Review Materials without changing the meaning or usefulness of the Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to rely in good faith, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects, and not misleading in any material respect.

 

(b)          Missing or Insufficient Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer will review the Review Materials to determine if any Review Materials are missing or insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test. If the Asset Representations Reviewer determines any missing or insufficient Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer promptly, and in any event no less than twenty (20) days before completing the Review. The Servicer will have fifteen (15) days to give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct the insufficiency. If the missing Review Materials or other documents have not been provided by the Servicer within fifteen (15) days, the related Review Report will report a Test Fail for each Test that requires use of the missing or insufficient Review Materials.

 

Section 3.03          Performance of Reviews.

 

(a)          Test Procedures. For a Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform, for each Review Contract, the procedures listed under “Tests” in Schedule B for each Eligible Representation. In the course of its review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will use the Review Materials listed in Schedule A. For each Test and Review Contract, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”) or if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”).

(b)          Review Period. The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Review within sixty (60) days of receiving access to the Review Materials. However, if additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer as described in Section 3.02(b), the Review period will be extended for an additional thirty (30) days.

 

(c)          Completion of Review for Certain Review Contracts. Following the delivery of the list of the Review Contracts and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a Review Contract is paid in full by the Obligor or purchased from the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents. On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of the related Review Contract, and the Review of such Review Contracts will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”). In this case, the related Review Report will indicate a Test Complete for such Review Contract and the related reason.

 

(d)          Previously Reviewed Contracts; Duplicative Tests. If any Review Contract was included in a prior Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not conduct additional Tests on such Review Contract, but will include the previously reported Test results in the Review Report for the current Review. If the same Test is required for more than one representation and warranty, the Asset Representations Reviewer will only perform the Test once for each Review Contract, but will report the results of the Test for each applicable representation and warranty on the Review Report.

 

(e)          Termination of Review. If a Review is in process and the Notes will be paid in full on the next Distribution Date, the Servicer or the Administrator will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer no less than ten (10) days before that Distribution Date. On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Review immediately and will not be obligated to deliver a Review Report.

 

(f)          Review Systems; Personnel. The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain business process management and/or other systems necessary to ensure that it can perform each Test and, on execution of this Agreement, will load each Test into these systems. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that these systems allow for each Review Contract and the related Review Materials to be individually tracked and stored as contemplated by this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain adequate staff that is properly trained to conduct Reviews as required by this Agreement.

 

Section 3.04          Review Report.

 

Within five (5) days after the end of the applicable Review period under Section 3.03(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer will deliver to the Issuer, the Servicer, the Trust Depositor, and the Indenture Trustee a Review Report indicating for each Review Contract whether there was a Test Pass, Test Fail or Test Complete for each related Test. For each Test Fail or Test Complete, the Review Report will indicate the related reason, including (for example) whether the Review Contract was a Test Fail as a result of missing or incomplete Review Materials. The Review Report will contain a summary of the Review results to be included in the Issuer’s Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which the Review Report is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that the Review Report does not contain any PII. On reasonable request of the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide additional details on the Test results.

If a Review Contract that was the subject of a Review becomes the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 7.12 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of a party to the proceeding. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer for its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the requesting party for the dispute resolution and will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by (i) in the case of arbitration, the arbitrator, and (ii) in the case of mediation, as mutually agreed upon by the parties as part of the mediation. If not paid by a party to the dispute resolution, the expenses will be reimbursed by the Issuer according to Section 4.02(d) of this Agreement.

To the Asset Representations Reviewer’s knowledge, there are no proceedings or investigations pending or threatened in writing before a federal or State court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Asset Representations Reviewer or its properties (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Asset Representations Reviewer’s ability to perform its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement.

 

(e)          Eligibility. The Asset Representations Reviewer meets the eligibility requirements in Section 5.01, and will notify the Issuer and the Servicer promptly if it no longer meets, or reasonably expects that it will no longer meet, the eligibility requirements in Section 5.01.

 

Section 4.02          Fees and Expenses.

 

(a)          Annual Fee. As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to receive an annual fee (the “Annual Fee”) with respect to each Annual Period prior to the termination of the Issuer, in an amount equal to $5,000.00.

However, no Review Fee will be charged for any Review Contract (i) which was included in a prior Review, (ii) for which no Tests were completed prior to the Asset Representations Reviewer being notified of a termination of the Review according to Section 3.03(e), or (iii) due to missing or insufficient Review Materials under Section 3.02(b).

In the event fees, expenses and indemnities of the Asset Representations Reviewer are not paid within thirty (30) days following the Servicer’s or Administrator’s, as applicable, receipt of an invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will submit invoices to the Issuer (with a copy to the Administrator) at the notices address set forth in Section 11.04 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Issuer shall or will cause the Administrator to, pay all such invoices according to the priority of payments described in Section 7.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement on the payment date following the month in which the invoice was received by the Issuer. However, if a Review is terminated according to Section 3.03(e), the Asset Representations Reviewer must submit its invoice to the Administrator for fees, expenses and indemnities remaining unpaid no later than ten (10) Business Days before the final payment date to be reimbursed on such final payment date. The Servicer acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to reimburse the Asset Representations Reviewer for its fees and expenses pursuant to this Agreement shall not be limited to or reduced by any reduction in Available Amounts on deposit in the related Collection Account.

However, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be liable for its willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be liable for any errors in any review materials relied on by it to perform a review or for the noncompliance or breach of any representation made about the Contracts. In no event will the Asset Representations Reviewer be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages (including lost profit), even if the Asset Representations Reviewer has been advised of the likelihood of the loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 

Section 4.04       Indemnification by Asset Representations Reviewer.

 

The Asset Representations Reviewer will indemnify each of the Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents for all fees, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), losses, damages and liabilities (a) resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Asset Representations Reviewer in performing its obligations under this Agreement, (b) resulting from the Asset Representations Reviewer’s breach of any of its representations or warranties in this Agreement, and (c) in connection with the enforcement of this indemnity.

The Servicer may participate in and assume the defense and settlement of a Proceeding at its expense. If the Servicer notifies the Indemnified Person of its intention to assume the defense of the Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, and so long as the Servicer assumes the defense of the Proceeding in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, the Servicer will not be liable for fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Person unless there is a conflict between the interests of the Servicer or the Issuer, as applicable, and an Indemnified Person. If there is a conflict, the Servicer will, or will cause the Issuer to, pay for the reasonable fees and expenses of separate counsel to the Indemnified Person. No settlement of a Proceeding may be made without the approval of the Servicer and the Indemnified Person, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

However, Confidential Information will not include information that (A) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Information Recipients, (B) was available to, or becomes available to, the Information Recipients on a non-confidential basis from a Person or entity other than the Issuer or the Servicer before its disclosure to the Information Recipients who, to the knowledge of the Information Recipient is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Issuer or the Servicer and is not prohibited from transmitting the information to the Information Recipients, (C) is independently developed by the Information Recipients without the use of the Confidential Information, as shown by the Information Recipients' files and records or other evidence in the Information Recipients' possession or (D) the Issuer or the Servicer provides permission to the applicable Information Recipients to release.

(a)            Definitions. "Personally Identifiable Information" or "PII" means information in any format about an identifiable individual, including, name, address, phone number, e-mail address, account number(s), identification number(s), any other actual or assigned attribute associated with or identifiable to an individual and any information that when used separately or in combination with other information could identify an individual. "Issuer PII" means PII furnished by the Issuer, the Servicer or their Affiliates to the Asset Representations Reviewer and PII developed or otherwise collected or acquired by the Asset Representations Reviewer in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

 

(b)            Use of Issuer PII. The Issuer does not grant the Asset Representations Reviewer any rights to Issuer PII except as provided in this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer will use Issuer PII only to perform its obligations under this Agreement or as specifically directed in writing by the Issuer and will only reproduce Issuer PII to the extent necessary for these purposes. The Asset Representations Reviewer must comply with all laws applicable to PII, Issuer PII and the Asset Representations Reviewer's business, including any legally required codes of conduct, including those relating to privacy, security and data protection. The Asset Representations Reviewer will protect and secure Issuer PII. The Asset Representations Reviewer will implement privacy or data protection policies and procedures that comply with applicable law and this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer will implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate practices, procedures and systems, including administrative, technical and physical safeguards to (i) protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of Issuer PII, (ii) ensure against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of Issuer PII, (iii) protect against unauthorized access to or use of Issuer PII and (iv) otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement. These safeguards include a written data security plan, employee training, information access controls, restricted disclosures, systems protections (e.g., intrusion protection, data storage protection and data transmission protection) and physical security measures.

When permitted, the disclosure of or access to Issuer PII will be limited to the specific information necessary for the individual to complete the assigned task. The Asset Representations Reviewer will inform personnel with access to Issuer PII of the confidentiality requirements in this Agreement and train its personnel with access to Issuer PII on the proper use and protection of Issuer PII.

 

(ii)           The Asset Representations Reviewer will not sell, disclose, provide or exchange Issuer PII with or to any third party without the prior consent of the Issuer.

 

(d)            Notice of Breach. The Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Issuer promptly in the event of an actual or reasonably suspected security breach, unauthorized access, misappropriation or other compromise of the security, confidentiality or integrity of Issuer PII and, where applicable, immediately take action to prevent any further breach.

 

11

 

 

(e)            Return or Disposal of Issuer PII. Except where return or disposal is prohibited by applicable law, promptly on the earlier of the completion of the Review or the request of the Issuer, all Issuer PII in any medium in the Asset Representations Reviewer's possession or under its control will be (i) destroyed in a manner that prevents its recovery or restoration or (ii) if so directed by the Issuer, returned to the Issuer without the Asset Representations Reviewer retaining any actual or recoverable copies, in both cases, without charge to the Issuer. Where the Asset Representations Reviewer retains Issuer PII, the Asset Representations Reviewer will limit the Asset Representations Reviewer's further use or disclosure of Issuer PII to that required by applicable law.

 

(f)            Compliance; Modification. The Asset Representations Reviewer will cooperate with and provide information to the Issuer regarding the Asset Representations Reviewer's compliance with this Section 4.09. The Asset Representations Reviewer and the Issuer agree to modify this Section 4.09 as necessary for either party to comply with applicable law.

 

(g)            Audit of Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer will permit the Issuer and its authorized representatives to audit the Asset Representations Reviewer's compliance with this Section 4.09 during the Asset Representations Reviewer's normal business hours on reasonable advance notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer, and not more than once during any year unless circumstances necessitate additional audits. The Issuer agrees to make reasonable efforts to schedule any audit described in this Section 4.09 with the inspections described in Section 4.06. The Asset Representations Reviewer will also permit the Issuer during normal business hours on reasonable advance written notice to audit any service providers used by the Asset Representations Reviewer to fulfill the Asset Representations Reviewer's obligations under this Agreement.

 

(h)            Affiliates and Third Parties. If the Asset Representations Reviewer processes the PII of the Issuer's Affiliates or a third party when performing a Review, and if such Affiliate or third party is identified to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such Affiliate or third party is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 4.09, and this Agreement is intended to benefit the Affiliate or third party.
