(b)   The Servicer (other than any successor Servicer who is not an affiliate of the initial Servicer) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Master Owner Trust Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and each of their respective agents, officers, directors and servants, from and against all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or incurred in connection with (x) in the case of the Master Owner Trust Trustee, the Indenture Trustee’s performance of its duties under the Issuer Documents, (y) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, the Master Owner Trust Trustee’s performance of its duties under the Issuer Documents or (z) the acceptance, administration or performance by, or action or inaction of, the applicable trustee of the rights and duties contained in this Series Supplement, the Agreement, and the other Issuer Documents except in each case to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability: (A) is caused by the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (except for errors in judgment) of the Person seeking to be indemnified, (B) to the extent otherwise payable to the Indenture Trustee, arises from the Indenture Trustee’s breach of any of its representations or warranties in the Indenture or (C) to the extent otherwise payable to the Master Owner Trust Trustee, arises from the Master Owner Trust Trustee’s breach of any of its representations or warranties set forth in the Master Owner Trust Agreement.

(d)   Indemnification under this Section 3.03 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Master Owner Trust Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Series Supplement or the Agreement and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.  If the Servicer has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 3.03 and the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient shall promptly repay such amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest.

SECTION 4.05  Additional Rights upon the Occurrence of Certain Events.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02(a) of the Agreement, if any Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Seller, ITEC, NIC or NFC, on the day of such Insolvency Event, the Seller will (subject to the actions of the Certificateholder) immediately cease to transfer Dealer Notes to the Master Trust, and promptly give notice to the Master Trust Trustee, the Master Owner Trust Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of such Insolvency Event.  Under the terms of the Agreement, if an insolvency event occurs with respect to the Seller prior to the date on which the Collateral Certificate issued by the Master Trust has been paid in full, then within 15 days the Master Trust Trustee shall publish a notice of such Insolvency Event stating that the Master Trust Trustee intends to sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of the Dealer Notes in a commercially reasonable manner and on commercially reasonable terms, unless within a specified period of time Certificateholders representing more than 50% of the aggregate series invested amount of the senior most outstanding Class of Investor Certificates of each such Series and each person holding a Supplemental Certificate, instruct the Master Trust Trustee not to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate the Dealer Notes and to continue transferring Dealer Notes as before such Insolvency Event.

 

SECTION 4.06  Servicer Transition Fee Account.

 

(a)   The Servicer has established an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of the Master Trust Trustee (the “Servicer Transition Fee Account”) and deposited $100,000 of cash or Eligible Investments therein.  In the event on any Business Day, the amount on deposit in the

 

11



 

Servicer Transition Fee Account shall be less than the Servicer Transition Fee Account Required Deposit Amount, NFC, as initial Servicer, shall deposit into the Servicer Transition Fee Account the amount of such shortfall.  Funds deposited in the Servicer Transition Fee Account shall, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations, be invested at the written direction of the Servicer in Eligible Investments.  The Servicer shall be entitled to receive all investment earnings on the Servicer Transition Fee Account when and as paid without any obligation to (a) the Master Trust Trustee, (b) the Investor Certificateholders or (c) the Noteholders, in respect thereof. The Servicer will not have any obligation to deposit any such amount in any account established hereunder.  Such amount will be withdrawn from the Servicer Transition Fee Account and delivered to the Servicer.

 

(b)   In the event that a Back Up Servicer shall be appointed pursuant to Section 7.04, the costs and expenses associated with the Back Up Servicer mapping NFC’s servicing computer systems shall be paid for with the funds on deposit in the Servicer Transition Fee Account and, if such funds are not sufficient, shall be paid by NFC, as initial Servicer.  In addition, in the event that a Successor Servicer shall be appointed pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Agreement, the set up and servicing transition fees and costs of the Successor Servicer shall be paid for with funds on deposit in the Servicer Transition Fee Account and, if such funds are not sufficient, shall be paid by NFC, as initial Servicer.  If the amount on deposit in the Servicer Transition Fee Account is insufficient to cover all of the fees and expenses associated with the transition of the servicing functions or such monthly fees and expenses, no Person will be obligated to deposit any additional funds into the Servicer Transition Fee Account. If the amount on deposit in the Servicer Transition Fee Account on any Business Day, after giving effect to all deposits or withdrawals therefrom on that date, is greater than the Servicer Transition Fee Account Required Deposit Amount on that Business Day, the excess will be withdrawn and distributed to NFC; provided, however, after the appointment of a Successor Servicer and until all series of Certificates are no longer Outstanding, no such withdrawals and distributions to NFC shall be permitted.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer Transition Fee Account may be closed by the Servicer and the funds on deposit therein returned to the Servicer upon the Servicer’s receipt of Moody’s consent to such actions.

SECTION 7.03  Back Up Servicer Trigger Events.  The occurrence of any of the following events shall be deemed to be a Back Up Servicer Trigger Event:

 

(a)   any failure by the Servicer to make any payment, transfer or deposit or to give instructions to the Master Trust Trustee to make any such payment, transfer or deposit or to give notice to the Master Trust Trustee as to any action taken under any Enhancement Agreement on or before the date occurring five Business Days after the date such payment, transfer or deposit is required to be made or given, as the case may be, under the terms of the Agreement;

 

(b)   failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenants or material agreements of the Servicer set forth in the Agreement, which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Trust Trustee;

 

(c)   any representation, warranty or certification made by the Servicer in the Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to the Agreement shall prove to have been incorrect when made, which has a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holders of the Investor Certificates and which representation, warranty or certification, or the circumstances or condition which caused such representation, warranty or certification to be incorrect, continues to be incorrect or uncured in any material respect for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Trust Trustee;

 

(d)   the Servicer shall file a petition commencing a voluntary case under any chapter of the Federal bankruptcy laws; or the Servicer shall file a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, or composition under any other similar applicable Federal law, or shall consent to the filing of any such petition, answer, or consent; or the Servicer shall appoint, or consent to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or other similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of it or of any substantial part of its property; or the Servicer shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or

15



 

jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator, or other similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 30 days.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delay in or failure of performance under Section 7.03(a) for a period of 10 days or under Section 7.03(b) or (c) for a period of 60 Business Days, shall not constitute a Backup Servicer Trigger Event if such delay or failure could not be prevented by the exercise of reasonable diligence by the Servicer and such delay or failure was caused by an act of God or the public enemy, acts of declared or undeclared war, public disorder, rebellion or sabotage, epidemics, landslides, lightning, fire, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods or similar causes.  The preceding sentence shall not relieve the Servicer from using its best efforts to perform its respective obligations in a timely manner in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Servicer shall provide the Master Trust Trustee, the Seller and the Certificateholders with an Officer’s Certificate giving prompt notice of such failure or delay by it, together with a description of its efforts so to perform its obligations.

SECTION 7.05  Additional Notices.  The Seller shall give each of the Rating Agencies prompt written notice of the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Seller of which it becomes aware.  The Seller shall give the Master Trust Trustee prompt written notice of any Lien on the Dealer Notes of which it becomes aware other than those created or permitted
