Defeasance Portfolio Sample Clauses
A Defeasance Portfolio clause defines the set of financial assets or securities that are set aside to secure the obligations of a borrower, typically in the context of a loan or bond defeasance. In practice, this portfolio usually consists of government securities or other low-risk investments whose cash flows are structured to match the scheduled payments of the underlying debt. By establishing a Defeasance Portfolio, the borrower can effectively remove the liability from its balance sheet, as the portfolio ensures that all future payment obligations will be met, thereby mitigating credit risk for the lender and providing financial flexibility for the borrower.
Defeasance Portfolio. (a) If the Warranty Provider exercises the remedy provided by Section 4.1(c)(i) upon a Permanent Defeasance Event, the Warranty Provider shall have the right to cause the Adviser to immediately allocate all of the assets of the Fund to the Fixed-Income Portfolio (the "Defeasance Portfolio"). In addition to or in lieu of the remedy provided in the immediately preceding sentence, at any time after the occurrence of a Permanent Defeasance Event, the Warranty Provider may, at its election in its sole discretion, cause the Custodian to invest all of the assets of the Fund in U.S. Zeroes (other than in connection with sales of portfolio investments for Cash and/or Cash Equivalents after receipt by the Fund of redemption requests in order to meet such requests or in connection with the payment of Fund fees). The Financial Warranty Fee shall remain due and payable in accordance with Section 2.4 notwithstanding the occurrence of a Permanent Defeasance Event. The Adviser shall provide the Warranty Provider upon the issuance of the Financial Warranty with an irrevocable instruction, in the form of Annex A to the Service Agreement, executed by the Adviser which shall constitute the Warranty Provider's direction to the Custodian pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) and the Service Agreement. The irrevocable instruction shall also constitute a limitation of the further authority of the Adviser (including any subadviser of the Fund) to manage the Fund's assets other than in accordance with the irrevocable instruction. If the Warranty Provider elects to provide instructions to the Custodian pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) following a Permanent Defeasance Event, the Warranty Provider shall do so by delivering the irrevocable instruction to the Custodian. The Warranty Provider shall only deliver such instruction to the Custodian following a Permanent Defeasance Event and after notice thereof to the Adviser.
(b) If a Permanent Defeasance Event shall have occurred, the Adviser shall immediately cause maximum Fund Fees and Expenses (excluding Extraordinary Expenses) to be reduced to 1.05% per annum of the average daily Net Assets of the Fund for the Class A Shares, 2.05% per annum of the average daily Net Assets of the Fund for the Class B Shares, 2.05% per annum of the average daily Net Assets of the Fund for the Class C Shares and 1.30% per annum of the average daily Net Assets of the Fund for the Class D Shares.
