Under no circumstances shall any Investor make any such purchase, or the Banks be obligated to make any such purchase, if after giving effect to such purchase the aggregate outstanding Capital of Receivable Interests would exceed the Purchase Limit.

(b) The Seller may at any time, upon at least five Business Days’ notice to the Program Agent and the Investor Agents, terminate the facility provided for in this Agreement in whole or, from time to time, reduce in part the unused portion of the Purchase Limit; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $3,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

 

32


(c) Until the Program Agent (or any Investor Agent with respect to its Investor) gives the Seller the notice provided in Section 3.02(c)(iii), the Program Agent, on behalf of the Investors which own Receivable Interests, may have the Collections attributable to such Receivable Interests automatically reinvested pursuant to Section 2.04 in additional undivided percentage interests in the Pool Receivables by making an appropriate readjustment of such Receivable Interests. The Program Agent, on behalf of the Banks which own Receivable Interests, shall have the Collections attributable to such Receivable Interests automatically reinvested pursuant to Section 2.04 in additional undivided percentage interests in the Pool Receivables by making an appropriate readjustment of such Receivable Interests.

(d) The Seller, Investors, Banks, Investor Agents and Program Agent intend that sales of Receivables Interests made pursuant to this Agreement will constitute a sale, transfer, and assignment of the Receivable Interests, for all purposes other than tax, to the Investors or the Banks, as applicable.

SECTION 2.02. Making Purchases . (a) Each purchase by any of the Investors or the Banks shall be made on at least two Business Days’ notice from the Seller to the Program Agent and each Investor Agent; provided that no more than 2 purchases shall be made in any one calendar month (and during such period that the Collection Agent is required to deliver a Weekly Report pursuant to Section 6.02(g)(ii) or a Daily Report pursuant to Section 6.02(g)(iii) an additional 2 purchases may be made in any one calendar month). Each such notice of a purchase shall specify (i) the amount requested to be paid to the Seller (such amount, which shall not be less than $5,000,000, being referred to herein as the initial “Capital” of the Receivable Interest then being purchased), (ii) the allocation of such amount among each of the Groups (which shall be proportional to the Investor Purchase Limit of each Group), and (iii) the date of such purchase (which shall be a Business Day). Each Investor shall promptly notify the Program Agent whether such Investor has determined to make the requested purchase on the terms specified by the Seller. The Program Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Seller whether the Investors have determined to make the requested purchase and, if so, whether all of the terms specified by the Seller are acceptable to the Investors. If, on the date any Investor Agent receives any notice of purchase (and provided that such notice is received by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day), such Investor Agent is aware that the Investor for which such Investor Agent is acting as Investor Agent will not make such purchase, such Investor Agent will notify the Seller, the Program Agent and each other Investor Agent thereof by the end of such day (which notice may be by telephone).

If any Investor has determined not to make the entire amount of a purchase requested to be made by it, the Investor Agent for such Investor shall promptly send notice of the proposed purchase to all of the Related Banks for such Investor concurrently by telecopier or e-mail, specifying the date of such purchase, the aggregate amount of Capital of Receivable Interest being purchased by such Related Banks (which amount shall be equal to the portion of the initial Capital not funded by such Investor), and each such Related Bank’s portion thereof (determined ratably in accordance with its respective Bank Commitment).

(b) On the date of each such purchase of a Receivable Interest, the applicable Investors and/or Banks, as the case may be, shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in this Article II and Article III, make available to the Program Agent, in same day

 

33


funds at the Program Agent’s Account, and Program Agent shall, on such date and upon receipt of such amounts from the Investors and/or Banks, as the case may be, make available to the Seller in same day funds, at the account set forth in the Funds Transfer Letter, an aggregate amount equal to the initial Capital of such Receivable Interest; provided , however , if such purchase is being made by the applicable Banks following the designation by the Investor Agent for an Investor of a Termination Date for a Receivable Interest owned by such Investor pursuant to clause (i)(a) of the definition of Termination Date and any Capital of such Receivable Interest is outstanding on such date of purchase, the Seller hereby directs the applicable Banks to pay the proceeds of such purchase (to the extent of the outstanding Capital and accrued Yield on such Receivable Interest of such Investor) to the relevant Investor Agent’s Account, for application to the reduction of the outstanding Capital and accrued Yield on such Receivable Interest of such Investor.

(c) Effective on the date of each purchase pursuant to this Section 2.02 and each reinvestment pursuant to Section 2.04, the Seller hereby sells and assigns to the Program Agent, for the benefit of the parties making such purchase, an undivided percentage interest, to the extent of the Receivable Interest then being purchased, in each Pool Receivable then existing and in the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) none of CAFCO, Enterprise or JSST shall make purchases under this Section 2.02 at any time in an amount which would exceed the Investor Purchase Limit of such Investor’s Group and (ii) a Bank shall not be obligated to make purchases under this Section 2.02 at any time in an amount which would exceed such Bank’s Bank Commitment less the sum of (A) the aggregate outstanding and unpaid amount of any purchases made by such Bank under such Bank’s Asset Purchase Agreement plus (B) such Bank’s ratable share of the aggregate outstanding portion of Capital held by the Investor in such Bank’s Group (whether or not any portion thereof has been assigned under an Asset Purchase Agreement), after giving effect to reductions of the Capital held by the Investor in such Bank’s Group to be made on the date of such purchase (whether from the distribution of Collections or from the proceeds of purchases by such Bank). Each Bank’s obligation shall be several, such that the failure of any Bank to make available to the Seller any funds in connection with any purchase shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make funds available on the date of such purchase, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make funds available in connection with any purchase.

(e) Interests in all of the Originator Receivables originated by the Trane Residential Systems Division of Trane U.S. in existence immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement (and all Related Security with respect to such Originator Receivables) have heretofore been sold by Trane U.S. to ASI Receivables Funding LLC pursuant to the Original PCA and by ASI Receivables Funding LLC to CAFCO pursuant to the Original RIPA. The Seller hereby agrees that it will cause any Adverse Claim or other interests granted in favor of ASI Receivables Funding LLC, CAFCO, or CNAI, as agent under the Original RIPA, to be released on the date hereof.

(f) The failure of any Group to deposit its ratable portion of any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 in accordance with the Investor Purchase Limit of its Group into the Program Agent’s account on the date of such purchase shall not relieve any other Group of its

 

34


obligations hereunder to fund its ratable portion of any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 in accordance with the Investor Purchase Limit of its Group on such date. Unless Program Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Investor Agent at least two Business Days preceding the purchase date for any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 that the Investors and Banks in such Investor Agent’s Group do not intend to fund such Group’s ratable portion of any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 in accordance with the Investor Purchase Limit of such Group, the Program Agent may assume that the Investors and/or Banks in such Group have funded their ratable portion of any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 in accordance with the Investor Purchase Limit of such Group and are depositing such sums into the Program Agent’s Account on the purchase date. The Program Agent in its discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, disburse a corresponding amount to the Seller on such date together with the proceeds funded by the other Groups. If the Program Agent disburses the amounts for any purchase but any Group fails to fund its ratable portion of any purchase pursuant to this Section 2.01 in accordance with the Investor Purchase Limit of its Group on or prior to the purchase date therefor, the Investor Agent for such Group shall pay to the Program Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is disbursed to the Seller until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Program Agent, at the Eurodollar Rate. If the Program Agent so requests, the Seller shall return to the Program Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Seller and the Program Agent.

SECTION 2.03. Receivable Interest Computation . Each Receivable Interest shall be initially computed on its date of purchase. Thereafter until the Termination Date for such Receivable Interest, such Receivable Interest shall be automatically recomputed (or deemed to be recomputed) on each day other than a Liquidation Day. Any Receivable Interest, as computed (or deemed recomputed) as of the day immediately preceding the Termination Date for such Receivable Interest, shall thereafter remain constant; provided , however , that from and after the date on which the Termination Date shall have occurred for all Receivable Interests and until each Receivable Interest becomes zero in accordance with the next sentence, each Receivable Interest shall be calculated as the percentage equivalent of a fraction the numerator of which is the percentage representing such Receivable Interest immediately prior to such date and the denominator of which is the sum of the percentages representing all Receivable Interests which were outstanding immediately prior to such date. Each Receivable Interest shall become zero when Capital thereof and Yield thereon shall have been paid in full, and all Fees and other amounts owed by the Seller hereunder to the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents or the Program Agent are paid and the Collection Agent shall have received the accrued Collection Agent Fee thereon.

SECTION 2.04. Settlement Procedures . (a) Collection of the Pool Receivables shall be administered by a Collection Agent, in accordance with the terms of Article VI of this Agreement. The Seller shall provide to the Collection Agent (if other than the Seller) on a timely basis all information needed for such administration, including notice of the occurrence of any Liquidation Day and current computations of each Receivable Interest.

 

35


(b) The Collection Agent shall, on each day on which Collections of Pool Receivables are received by it:

(i) with respect to each Receivable Interest, set aside on its books and hold for the benefit of (and, at the request of the Program Agent following the taking of any action permitted by the first sentence of Section 6.03(a), segregate for) the Investors or the Banks that hold such Receivable Interest and for the Investor Agents, out of the percentage of such Collections represented by such Receivable Interest, an amount equal to the Yield, Fees and Collection Agent Fee accrued through such day for such Receivable Interest and not previously set aside;

(ii) on each such date which is a day following a Report Date on which a Daily Report was delivered showing that (x) outstanding Capital plus Total Reserves exceeded (y) the sum of the Maximum Percentage Factor multiplied by the Net Receivables Pool Balance (as of the related Report Date) plus the amount (if any) on deposit in the Cure Account as of the related Report Date, the Collection Agent shall remit to the Cure Account the remaining Collections in the Lock-Box Accounts and Collections received by the Collection Agent on such date, provided that the Collection Agent shall not be obligated to remit Collections to the Cure Account pursuant to this clause (ii) to the extent that after giving effect thereto the amount on deposit in the Cure Account would exceed the Cure Amount;

(iii) with respect to each Receivable Interest, if such day is not a Liquidation Day for such Receivable Interest, reinvest with the Seller on behalf of the Investors or the Banks that hold such Receivable Interest the percentage of such Collections represented by such Receivable Interest, to the extent representing a return of Capital, by recomputation of such Receivable Interest pursuant to Section 2.03;

(iv) if such day is a Liquidation Day for any one or more Receivable Interests, set aside on its books and hold for the benefit of (and, at the request of the Program Agent, segregate for) the Investors and/or the Banks that hold such Receivable Interests and for the Investor Agents (x) if such day is a Liquidation Day for less than all of the Receivable Interests, the percentage of such Collections represented by such Receivable Interests, and (y) if such day is a Liquidation Day for all of the Receivable Interests, all of the remaining Collections (but not in excess of the Capital of such Receivable Interests and any other amounts payable by the Seller hereunder); provided that if amounts are set aside and held for the benefit of any Investors or Banks on any Liquidation Day occurring prior to the Termination Date, and thereafter prior to the next Settlement Date (Capital) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied or waived by the Agents, such previously set aside amounts shall, to the extent they represent a return of Capital and have not been deposited to the Investor Agent’s Accounts pursuant to Section 2.04(c), be reinvested in accordance with the preceding subsection (iii) on the day of such subsequent satisfaction or waiver of conditions; and

 

36


(v) during such times as amounts are required to be reinvested in accordance with the foregoing subsection (iii) or the proviso to subsection (iv), release to the Seller for its own account any Collections in excess both of such amounts and of the amounts that are required to be set aside pursuant to subsections (i) and (ii) above.

On any Business Day on which funds are on deposit in the Cure Account, the Collection Agent (i) shall, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Trigger Event or upon the written request of Investor Agents representing the Majority Banks, and may (if the funds in the Cure Account exceed $2,500,000), upon written notice to the Program Agent and each of the Investor Agents, remit such funds from the Cure Account to the Program Agent’s Account, and the Program Agent shall thereafter deposit each Investor Agent’s allocable portion thereof to the Investor Agent’s Accounts for the ratable payment of Capital and any other amounts owed by the Seller hereunder to the relevant Investors and Banks pursuant to Section 2.04(d), or (ii) may, following delivery of a Seller Report to the Program Agent and each of the Investor Agents, withdraw from the Cure Account and remit to the Seller all or a portion of the funds in the Cure Account; provided that (x) no Trigger Event shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) such Seller Report shall state that, as of the related Report Date after taking account of the proposed withdrawal, (A) the sum of the Maximum Percentage Factor multiplied by the Net Receivables Pool Balance and the remaining amount on deposit in the Cure Account will be equal to or greater than (B) outstanding Capital plus Total Reserves, and such Seller Report shall set forth the calculation supporting such statement.

(c) The Collection Agent shall deposit into the Program Agent’s Account, and the Program Agent shall thereafter, after taking into account any deductions that the Program Agent may make in accordance with clause “ first ” of Section 2.04(d)(ii), deposit in the applicable Investor Agent’s Account of each Investor Agent, (i) on the Settlement Date (Yield and Fees) for each Receivable Interest, Collections held for the Investors or the Banks in each Investor Agent’s Group with respect to Yield, Fees and other amounts (other than Capital) that relate to such Receivable Interest pursuant to Section 2.04(b); provided that , if such Settlement Date (Yield and Fees) is not a Liquidation Day or a Pool Non-compliance Date, the Collection Agent may withhold from each such deposit an amount equal to all accrued Collection Agent Fee payable by the Investors and Banks in each Group, and (ii) on the Settlement Date (Capital) for each Receivable Interest, all other Collections held for the Investors or the Banks in each Investor Agent’s Group that relate to such Receivable Interest pursuant to Section 2.04(b). On the Business Day immediately following the delivery of any Monthly Report or Weekly Report which sets forth a Pool Non-compliance Date as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the preceding calendar month or Week, as applicable, and on each Business Day thereafter until a Pool Non-compliance Date no longer exists, the Collection Agent shall deposit into the Program Agent’s Account, and the Program Agent shall thereafter deposit each Investor Agent’s allocable portion thereof to the Investor Agent’s Accounts, Collections set aside pursuant to subsection (iv) of Section 2.04(b); provided that the aggregate amount deposited pursuant to this sentence with respect to any Monthly Report or Weekly Report shall not exceed an amount such that, after giving effect to the application of such amount to the reduction of Capital, the Net Receivables Pool Balance is equal to the Required Net Receivables Pool Balance.

 

37


(d) Upon receipt of funds deposited into an Investor Agent’s Account, the relevant Investor Agent shall distribute them as follows:

(i) if such distribution occurs on a day that is not a Liquidation Day, first to the Investors or the Banks in its Group that hold the relevant Receivable Interest and to such Investor Agent in payment in full of all accrued Yield and Fees, second to the Collection Agent in payment in full of all accrued Collection Agent Fee payable by the Investors and Banks in its Group, except to the extent such Collection Agent Fee has been withheld by the Collection Agent pursuant to Section 2.04(c) above, and third to such Investor Agent and/or the Investors and Banks in its Group in payment of any other amounts (other than Capital) owed by the Seller hereunder; provided , however , that the portion (if any) of such deposit withdrawn from the Cure Account pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 2.04(b) shall be first paid ratably to the Investors or Banks in such Group holding any portion of the relevant Receivable Interests in reduction of Capital.

(ii) if such distribution occurs on a Liquidation Day, first to the Program Agent (if such Investor Agent is CNAI) in payment of any amounts owed by the Seller to the Program Agent and/or CNAI pursuant to Section 11.04(a) in connection with out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Program Agent and to such Investor Agent in payment of any amounts owed by the Seller to such Investor Agent pursuant to Section 11.04(a) in connection with out-of pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Investor Agent (it being understood and agreed that the amounts payable under this clause “ first ” may, if the Program Agent so elects, be deducted by the Program Agent from the amounts deposited by the Program Agent into the applicable Investor Agent’s Account), second to the Collection Agent (if the Collection Agent is not IR Company or an Affiliate of IR Company) in payment in full of all accrued Collection Agent Fee payable by the Investors and Banks in such Investor Agent’s Group, third to the Investors or the Banks in such Investor Agent’s Group that hold the relevant Receivable Interest and to such Investor Agent in payment in full of all accrued Yield, Fees and Liquidation Fee, fourth to such Investors and/or Banks in reduction to zero of all Capital, fifth to such Investors, Banks or such Investor Agent in payment of any other amounts owed by the Seller hereunder, and sixth to the Collection Agent (if the Collection Agent is IR Company or an Affiliate of IR Company); provided , however , that if such funds were deposited into such Investor Agent’s Account pursuant to the second sentence of Section 2.04(c) as the result of the occurrence of a Pool Non-compliance Date, such funds shall instead be distributed ratably to the Investors or the Banks in such Group that hold the relevant Receivable Interest in reduction of the Capital thereof.

After the Capital, Yield, Fees and Collection Agent Fee with respect to all Receivable Interests, and any other amounts payable by the Seller to the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents or the Program Agent hereunder, have been paid in full and any contingent obligations of the Program Agent under any Lock-Box Agreement or the Cure Account Agreement have been released, all additional Collections with respect to such Receivable Interest shall be paid to the Seller for its own account.

 

38


(e) For the purposes of this Section 2.04:

(i) if on any day any Pool Receivable becomes (in whole or in part) a Diluted Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such Diluted Receivable;

(ii) if on any day any of the representations or warranties contained in Section 4.01(i) is no longer true with respect to any Pool Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full;

(iii) except as provided in subsection (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.04(e), or as otherwise required by applicable law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivables shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates its payment for application to specific Receivables; and

(iv) if and to the extent the Program Agent or any of the Investor Agents, the Investors or the Banks shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor any amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, the Program Agent or such Investor Agent, the Investors or the Banks, as the case may be, shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

(f) Within one Business Day after the end of each Fixed Period in respect of which Yield is computed by reference to the Investor Rate, each Investor Agent shall furnish the Program Agent with, and the Program Agent shall forward to the Seller, an invoice setting forth the amount of the accrued and unpaid Yield and Fees for such Fixed Period with respect to the Receivable Interests held by the Investors and the Banks in such Investor Agent’s Group.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that cash is released to the Seller pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.04(b) and is subsequently applied by the Seller to purchase Receivables under a Purchase Agreement, such cash shall, upon the completion of such purchase of Receivables, be automatically released from any security interest granted in such cash pursuant to Section 2.11.

SECTION 2.05. Fees . (a) Each Investor and Bank shall pay (which payment may be satisfied by a withholding by the Collection Agent pursuant to Section 2.04(c) above) to the Program Agent, and the Program Agent shall pay to the Collection Agent upon receipt thereof, a fee (the “ Collection Agent Fee ”) of 0.75% per annum on an amount equal to the Receivable Interest of such Investor or Bank (expressed as a percentage) multiplied by the average daily Outstanding Balance of all Receivables, from the date of purchase of such Receivable Interest until the later of the Termination Date for such Receivable Interest or the date on which the Capital of such Receivable Interest is reduced to zero, payable on each

 

39


Settlement Date (Yield and Fees) for such Receivable Interest. Upon three Business Days’ notice to the Program Agent and each Investor Agent, and the prior written consent of Investor Agents representing the Majority Banks, the Collection Agent (if not an Originator, the Seller or its designee or an Affiliate of the Seller) may elect to be paid, as such fee, another percentage per annum on the average daily Outstanding Balance of all Receivables, but in no event in excess for all Receivable Interests of 110% of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Collection Agent in administering and collecting the Receivables in the Receivables Pool. The Collection Agent Fee shall be payable only from Collections pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment set forth in, Section 2.04. So long as an Originator is acting as the Collection Agent hereunder, amounts paid as the Collection Agent Fee pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the obligations of the Seller, the Intermediate SPVs and the Designated Entities to pay the “Collection Agent Fee” pursuant to Section 6.03 of the any Purchase Agreement, provided that such obligation of the Seller, any Intermediate SPV, or any Designated Entity shall in no event be reduced below zero.

(b) The Seller shall pay to the Program Agent and the Investor Agents, as applicable, certain fees (collectively, the “ Fees ”) in the amounts and on the dates set forth in a separate fee agreement of even date among the Seller, the Program Agent and the Investor Agents, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time (the “ Fee Agreement ”).

SECTION 2.06. Payments and Computations, Etc .(a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by (i) the Seller or the Collection Agent to the Program Agent hereunder shall be paid or deposited no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the Program Agent’s Account, and (ii) any Investor Agent hereunder to the Program Agent shall be paid or deposited no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the Program Agent’s Account.

(b) All computations of Yield, fees, and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.

(c) The Seller shall provide the Agents with prior written notice of any proposed voluntary repayment of Capital no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding such voluntary repayment, provided that the delivery of such notice will not affect any Liquidation Fees, breakage or other expenses payable to the Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Investors and the Banks in relation to such voluntary repayment.

SECTION 2.07. Dividing or Combining Receivable Interests . Either the Seller or any Investor Agent may, upon notice to the other party (with a copy of such notice to the Program Agent) received at least three Business Days prior to the last day of any Fixed Period in the case of the Seller giving notice, or up to the last day of such Fixed Period in the case of an Investor Agent giving notice, either (i) divide any Receivable Interest held by one or more Investors and/or Banks in its Group into two or more Receivable Interests of such Investors

 

40


and/or Banks having aggregate Capital equal to the Capital of such divided Receivable Interest, or (ii) combine any two or more Receivable Interests held by one or more Investors and/or Banks in its Group originating on such last day or having Fixed Periods ending on such last day into a single Receivable Interest having Capital equal to the aggregate of the Capital of such Receivable Interests; provided , however , that no Receivable Interest owned by an Investor may be combined with a Receivable Interest owned by any Bank.

SECTION 2.08. Increased Costs . (a) If CNAI, any Investor, any Investor Agent, any Bank, any entity (including any bank or other financial institution providing liquidity and/or credit support to any Investor in connection with such Investor’s commercial paper program) which purchases or enters into a commitment to purchase Receivable Interests or interests therein, any related commercial paper issuer of an Investor, or any of their respective Affiliates (each an “ Affected Person ”) determines that (i) compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of the capital required or expected to be maintained by such Affected Person and such Affected Person determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any commitment to make purchases of or otherwise to maintain the investment in Pool Receivables or interests therein related to this Agreement or to the funding thereof and other commitments of the same type, or (ii) an Accounting-Based Consolidation Event has occurred with respect to any Investor and such Affected Person, then, upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Program Agent and the Investor Agent for such Affected Person’s Group), the Seller shall pay to the Investor Agent for such Affected Person’s Group for the account of such Affected Person (as a third-party beneficiary), from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person in th
