Section 2.2.          Confirmation of Scope. The parties confirm that the Asset Representations Reviewer is not responsible for (a) reviewing the Receivables for compliance with the representations and warranties under the Basic Documents, except as described in this Agreement or (b) determining whether noncompliance with the representations or warranties constitutes a breach of the Basic Documents.

 

ARTICLE III
ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEW PROCESS

 

Section 3.1.          Review Notices. On receipt of a Review Notice in accordance with Section 7.05 of the Indenture, the Asset Representations Reviewer will commence an Asset Representations Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation to start an Asset Representations Review until a Review Notice is received.

 

Section 3.2.          Identification of Subject Receivables. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Review Notice, the Servicer will deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer a list of the Subject Receivables.

 

 

Section 3.3.          Review Materials.

 

(a)            Access to Review Materials. The Servicer will give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Review Materials for all of the Subject Receivables within sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of the Review Notice in one or more of the following ways in the Servicer’s reasonable discretion: (i) by electronic posting of Review Materials to a password-protected website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access, (ii) by providing originals or photocopies of documents relating to the Subject Receivables at one of the properties of the Servicer or (iii) in another manner agreed by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Servicer may redact or remove PII from the Review Materials so long as all information in the Review Materials necessary for the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete the Asset Representations Review remains intact and unchanged.

 

(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 reasonably determines that any of the Review Materials are missing or insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer promptly, and in any event no less than twenty (20) calendar days before completing the Review, and the Servicer will use reasonable efforts to provide the Asset Representations Reviewer access to such missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct the insufficiency within fifteen (15) calendar days. If the missing or insufficient Review Materials have not been provided by the Servicer within sixty (60) calendar days, the parties agree that the Subject Receivable will have a Test Incomplete for the related Test(s) and the Review Report will indicate the reason for the Test Incomplete.

 

Section 3.4.          Performance of Reviews.

 

(a)            Test Procedures. For an Asset Representations Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform for each Subject Receivable the procedures listed under “Tests” in Schedule A for each representation and warranty (each, a “Test”), using the Review Materials listed for each such Test in Schedule A. For each Test and Subject Receivable, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine in its reasonable judgment if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”), if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”) or if the Test could not be concluded as a result of missing or incomplete Review Materials (a “Test Incomplete”). The Asset Representations Reviewer will use such determination for all Subject Receivables that are subject to the same Test.

 

(b)            Review Period. The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Asset Representations Review of all of the Subject Receivables within sixty (60) calendar days after receiving access to the Review Materials under Section 3.3(a). However, if missing or additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer under Section 3.3(b), the review period will be extended for an additional thirty (30) calendar days.

 

(c)            Completion of Review for Certain Subject Receivables. Following the delivery of the list of the Subject Receivables and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a Subject Receivable is paid in full by the Obligor or purchased from the Issuer by the Seller or the Servicer according to the applicable Basic Document. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of such Receivables and the Review of such Receivables will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”). In this case, the Review Report will indicate a Test Complete for the Receivables and the related reason.

 

 

(d)            Previously Reviewed Receivable. If a Subject Receivable was included in a prior Asset Representations Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not conduct additional Tests on any such duplicate Subject Receivable unless such Subject Receivable was deemed a Test Incomplete as a result of the failure of the Servicer to provide missing Review Material for such Subject Receivable and the Servicer elects to have such Subject Receivable included in the current Asset Representations Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will include the previously reported Test results for any such duplicate Subject Receivable within the Review Report for the current Asset Representations Review.

 

(e)             Duplicative Tests. If the same Test is required for more than one representation or warranty listed on Schedule A, the Asset Representations Reviewer will only perform the Test once for each Subject Receivable but will report the results of the Test for each applicable representation or warranty on the Review Report.

 

(f)             Termination of Review. If an Asset Representations Review is in process and all of the Notes will be paid in full on the next Payment Date, the Servicer will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Indenture Trustee no less than ten days before that Payment Date. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Asset Representations Review immediately and will have no obligation to deliver a Review Report.

 

Section 3.5.          Review Reports. (a) Within ten (10) calendar days after the end of the Asset Representations Review period under Section 3.4(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer will deliver to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee a Review Report indicating for each Subject Receivable whether there was a Test Pass, a Test Incomplete or a Test Fail for each Test, or whether the Subject Receivable was a Test Complete and the related reason. The Review Report will contain a summary of the findings and conclusions of the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the Asset Representations Review 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 Issuer PII. On the reasonable request of the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide additional details on the Test results.

 

(b)            Questions About Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will make appropriate personnel available to respond in writing to written questions or requests for clarification of any Review Report from the Servicer until payment of the Notes in full. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation to respond to questions or requests for clarification from Noteholders or any Person other than the Servicer and will direct such Persons to submit written questions or requests to the Servicer.

 

 

Section 3.6.          Limitations on Review Obligations. The Asset Representations Reviewer may rely on the information in any Review Notice, the list(s) of the Subject Receivables provided by the Servicer, and the accuracy and completeness of the Review Materials. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation:

 

(a)             to determine whether a Delinquency Trigger has occurred or whether the required percentage of Noteholders has voted to direct an Asset Representations Review under the Indenture;

 

(b)            to determine which Receivables are Subject Receivables;

 

(c)             to confirm the validity of the Review Materials; or

 

(d)            to take any action or cause any other party to take any action under any of the Basic Documents or otherwise to enforce any remedies against any Person for breaches of representations or warranties about the Subject Receivables.

 

Section 3.7.          Dispute Resolution. The Asset Representations Reviewer acknowledges and agrees that any Review Report may be used by the Issuer, the Seller or the Servicer in any dispute resolution proceeding related to the Subject Receivables. No additional fees or reimbursement of expenses shall be paid to the Asset Representations Reviewer regarding the Issuer’s, the Seller’s or the Servicer’s use of any Review Report; provided that the Asset Representations Reviewer will be reimbursed for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding.
