Securitized Portfolio” shall mean, as of any date (including as of any prior Distribution Dates on or after April 25, 2019), all timeshare loans included in the Collateral or financed by any special purpose entity that is wholly-owned by HRC or for which HRC is acting as the sponsor (within the meaning of Regulation AB) thereof, and which satisfy each of the following three clauses: (A) originated by the Servicer or an Affiliate thereof, (B) which are serviced by the Servicer and (C) the related property for which is managed by HRC or an affiliate thereof (including the timeshare loans in all term issuances, all warehouse facilities and other term securitization facilities that are outstanding as of such date).
