PURCHASE PAYMENTS The initial Purchase Payment is due on the Certificate Date. It must be paid at Our Office in United States currency. Coverage under a Certificate does not take effect until We have accepted the initial Purchase Payment during a Certificate Owner's lifetime. Each Purchase Payment after the Certificate Date must be at least the amount shown on the Certificate Schedule. Provided the Certificate Value under a Certificate does not go to zero, a Certificate will stay in force until the Income Date even if a Certificate Owner make no payments after the initial one. We reserve the right to reject any subsequent Purchase Payment. An initial Purchase Payment is allocated to the Sub-accounts of the Variable Account, and to the Fixed Account if available, in accordance with the selections made by a Certificate Owner at the Certificate Date. Unless otherwise changed by a Certificate Owner, subsequent Purchase Payments are allocated in the same manner as the initial Purchase Payment. Allocation of Purchase Payments is subject to the terms and conditions imposed by Us. We reserve the right to allocate initial Purchase Payments to the Money Market Sub-account until the expiration of the Right to Examine Certificate period set forth on the first page of the Group Contract and the Certificate. The Group Contract, including the application, if any, and any attached rider or endorsement constitute the entire contract between the Group Contract Owner and Us. All statements made by the Group Contract Owner, any Certificate Owner or any Annuitant will be deemed representations and not warranties. No such statement will be used in any contest unless it is contained in the application signed by the Group Contract Owner or in a written instrument signed by the Certificate Owner, a copy of which has been furnished to the Certificate Owner, the Beneficiary or to the Group Contract Owner. Only Our President or Secretary may agree to change any of the terms of the Group Contract. Any changes must be in writing. Any change to the terms of a Certificate must be in writing and with Certificate Owner's consent, unless provided otherwise by the Group Contract and the Certificate. To assure that the Group Contract and the Certificate will maintain their status as a variable annuity under the Internal Revenue Code, We reserve the right to change the Group Contract and any Certificate issued thereunder to comply with future changes in the Internal Revenue Code, any regulations or rulings issued thereunder, and any requirements otherwise imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. The Group Contract Owner and the affected Certificate Owner will be sent a copy of any such amendment. We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law as currently applicable or subsequently changed, to: (a) operate the Variable Account in any form permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the "1940 Act"), or in any other form permitted by law; (b) take any action necessary to comply with or obtain and continue any exemptions from the 1940 Act, or to comply with any other applicable law; (c) transfer any assets in any Sub-account to another Sub-account, or to one or more separate investment accounts, or the General Account; or to add, combine or remove Sub-accounts in the Variable Account; and (d) change the way We assess charges, so long as We do not increase the aggregate amount beyond that currently charged to the Variable Account and the Eligible Funds in connection with a Certificate. If the shares of any of the Eligible Funds should become unavailable for investment by the Variable Account or if in Our judgment further investment in such Portfolio shares should become inappropriate in view of the purpose of the Certificate, We may add or substitute shares of another mutual fund for the Portfolio shares already purchased under the Certificate. No substitution of Portfolio shares in any Sub-account may take place without prior approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and notice to the affected Certificate Owners, to the extent required by the 1940 Act.
Optional Repurchase (a) So long as a Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer, on any day occurring on or after the date on which the Invested Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, such Transferor shall have the option to purchase the Series 2017-1 Certificateholders’ Interest, at a purchase price equal to (i) if such day is a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (ii) if such day is not a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the Distribution Date following such day. If, on the date on which a Transferor exercises such option, the long-term unsecured debt obligations of such Transferor purchasing the Series 2017-1 Certificateholders’ Interest is not rated at least in the third highest rating category by the Rating Agency, such Transferor shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Rating Agency, an Officer’s Certificate of such Transferor which shall have attached to it the relevant fraudulent conveyance statute, if any, and set forth the factual basis for a conclusion that the exercise of such optional repurchase would not constitute a fraudulent conveyance of such Transferor. (b) The Transferors shall give the Servicer and the Trustee at least 30 days prior written notice of the date on which the Transferors intend to exercise such purchase option. Not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such day the Transferors shall deposit the Reassignment Amount into the Collection Account in immediately available funds. Such purchase option is subject to payment in full of the Reassignment Amount. Following the deposit of the Reassignment Amount into the Collection Amount in accordance with the foregoing, the Invested Amount for Series 2017-1 shall be reduced to zero and the Series 2017-1 Certificateholders shall have no further interest in the Receivables. The Reassignment Amount shall be distributed as set forth in subsection 8.01(b).
Payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price Without limiting the Company’s obligation to deposit the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price within the time proscribed by Section 3.01(B), the Company will cause the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for a Note (or portion thereof) to be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change to be paid to the Holder thereof on or before the later of (i) the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and (ii) the date (x) such Note is delivered to the Paying Agent (in the case of a Physical Note) or (y) the Depositary Procedures relating to the repurchase, and the delivery to the Paying Agent, of such Holder’s beneficial interest in such Note to be repurchased are complied with (in the case of a Global Note). For the avoidance of doubt, interest payable pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.02(D) on any Note to be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change must be paid pursuant to such proviso regardless of whether such Note is delivered or such Depositary Procedures are complied with pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.02(G).
Deposit of Repurchase Price On or prior to the Repurchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price of the Securities which are to be repaid on the Repurchase Date.
Mortgage Payments Received After Transfer Date The amount of any related Monthly Payments received by the Seller after the related Transfer Date shall be forwarded to the Purchaser by overnight mail within one (1) Business Day following the date of receipt. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser of the particulars of the payment, which notification requirement shall be satisfied if the Seller forwards with its payment sufficient information to permit appropriate processing of the payment by the Purchaser. The Seller shall assume full responsibility for the necessary and appropriate legal application of such Monthly Payments received by the Seller after the related Transfer Date with respect to related Mortgage Loans then in foreclosure or bankruptcy; provided, for purposes of this Agreement, necessary and appropriate legal application of such Monthly Payments shall include, but not be limited to, endorsement of a Monthly Payment to the Purchaser with the particulars of the payment such as the account number, dollar amount, date received and any special Mortgagor application instructions and the Seller shall comply with the foregoing requirements with respect to all Monthly Payments received by it after the related Transfer Date.
