Nonconsolidation The SPV is operated in such a manner that the separate corporate existence of the SPV, on the one hand, and each Originator or any Affiliate thereof, on the other, would not be disregarded in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(i) the SPV is a limited purpose corporation whose activities are restricted in its certificate of incorporation to activities related to purchasing or otherwise acquiring receivables (including the Receivables) and related assets and rights and conducting any related or incidental business or activities it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out its primary purpose, including entering into agreements like the Transaction Documents;
(ii) the SPV has not engaged, and does not presently engage, in any activity other than those activities expressly permitted hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, nor has the SPV entered into any agreement other than this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and with the prior written consent of the Investors, each Funding Agent and the Administrative Agent, any other agreement necessary to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes hereof or thereof;
(A) the SPV maintains its own deposit account or accounts, separate from those of any of its Affiliates, with commercial banking institutions, (B) the funds of the SPV are not and have not been diverted to any other Person or for other than the corporate use of the SPV and (C) except as may be expressly permitted by this Agreement, the funds of the SPV are not and have not been commingled with those of any of its Affiliates;
(iv) to the extent that the SPV contracts or does business with vendors or service providers where the goods and services provided are partially for the benefit of any other Person, the costs incurred in so doing are fairly allocated to or among the SPV and such entities for whose benefit the goods and services are provided, and each of the SPV and each such entity bears its fair share of such costs; and all material transactions between the SPV and any of its Affiliates shall be only on an arm’s-length basis;
(v) the SPV maintains stationery through which all business correspondence and communication are conducted, in each case separate from those of each Originator and its respective Affiliates;
(vi) the SPV conducts its affairs strictly in accordance with its certificate of incorporation and observes all necessary, appropriate and customary corporate formalities, including (A) holding all regular and special stockholders’ and directors’ meetings appropriate to authorize all corporate action (which, in the case of regular stockholders’ and directors’ meetings, are held at least annually), (B) keeping separate and accurate minutes of such meetings, (C) passing all resolutions or consents necessary to authorize actions taken or to be taken, and (D) maintaining accurate and separate books, records and accounts, including intercompany transaction accounts;
(vii) all decisions with respect to its business and daily operations are independently made by the SPV (although the officer making any particular decision may also be an employee, officer or director of an Affiliate of the SPV) and are not dictated by any Affiliate of the SPV (it being understood that the Master Servicer, which is an Affiliate of the SPV, will undertake and perform all of the operations, functions and obligations of it set forth herein and it may appoint Sub-Servicers, which may be Affiliates of the SPV, to perform certain of such operations, functions and obligations);
(viii) the SPV acts solely in its own corporate name and through its own authorized officers and agents, and no Affiliate of the SPV shall be appointed to act as its agent, except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement;
(ix) no Affiliate of the SPV advances funds to the SPV, other than as is otherwise provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, and no Affiliate of the SPV otherwise supplies funds to, or guaranties debts of, the SPV; provided, however, that an Affiliate of the SPV may provide funds to the SPV in connection with the capitalization of the SPV;
(x) other than organizational expenses and as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, the SPV pays all expenses, indebtedness and other obligations incurred by it;
(xi) the SPV does not guarantee, and is not otherwise liable, with respect to any obligation of any of its Affiliates;
(xii) any financial reports required of the SPV comply with generally accepted accounting principles and are issued separately from, but may be consolidated with, any reports prepared for any of its Affiliates;
(xiii) at all times the SPV is adequately capitalized to engage in the transactions contemplated in its certificate of incorporation;
(xiv) the financial statements and books and records of the SPV and Arrow reflect the separate corporate existence of the SPV;
(xv) the SPV does not act as agent for any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, but instead presents itself to the public as a corporation separate from each such member and independently engaged in the business of purchasing and financing Receivables;
(xvi) the SPV maintains a three-person board of directors, including at least one independent director, who has never been, and shall at no time be a stockholder, director, officer, employee or associate, or any relative of the foregoing, of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof (other than the SPV and any other bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity formed for the sole purpose of securitizing, or facilitating the securitization of, financial assets of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof), all as provided in its certificate or articles of incorporation, and is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Investors, the Funding Agents and the Administrative Agent; and
(xvii) the bylaws or the certificate or articles of incorporation of the SPV require the affirmative vote of the independent director before a voluntary petition under Section 301 of the Bankruptcy Code may be filed by the SPV, and the SPV to maintain correct and complete books and records of account and minutes of the meetings and other proceedings of its stockholders and board of directors.
