Interpretation Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Trust or the Fund to take any action contrary to the Trust’s Declaration of Trust or By-Laws, or any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement to which it is subject or by which it is bound, or to relieve or deprive the Trust’s Board of Trustees of its responsibility for and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Trust or the Funds.
Dispute Resolution (a) If the Owner Trustee or any Noteholder or Verified Note Owner requests (by written notice to TMCC or the Seller) (any such party making a request, the “Requesting Party”), that a Receivable be repurchased due to an alleged breach of a representation and warranty in Section 3.01 of this Agreement or Section 2.03 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and the request has not been fulfilled or otherwise resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Requesting Party within one-hundred eighty (180) days of the receipt of such request by TMCC or the Seller (which, if sent by a Noteholder or Verified Note Owner to the Indenture Trustee, will be required to be forwarded by the Indenture Trustee to TMCC and the Seller in accordance with the terms of Section 7.02(d) of the Indenture), then the Requesting Party will have the right to refer the matter, at its discretion, to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or third-party binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 11.02. Dispute resolution to resolve repurchase requests will be available regardless of whether Noteholders and Verified Note Owners voted to direct an Asset Representations Review or whether the Delinquency Trigger occurred. The Seller will provide written direction to the Indenture Trustee instructing it to notify the Requesting Party of the date when the 180-day period ends without resolution by the appropriate party, which written direction will specify the identity of such Requesting Party and the date as of which such 180-day period shall have ended. The Requesting Party must provide notice of its intention to refer the matter to mediation, to refer the matter to arbitration, or to institute a legal proceeding to the Seller within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice of the end of the 180-day period. The Seller agrees to participate in the resolution method selected by the Requesting Party.
(b) If the Requesting Party selects mediation (including non-binding arbitration) as the resolution method, the following provisions will apply:
(i) The mediation will be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Mediation Procedures in effect on the date hereof.
(ii) The mediator will be impartial, knowledgeable about and experienced with the laws of the State of New York and an attorney specializing in commercial litigation with at least 15 years of experience and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by JAMS. Upon being supplied a list of at least 10 potential mediators by JAMS each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference JAMS will select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.
(iii) The parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to begin the mediation within thirty (30) days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days of the start of the mediation.
(iv) The fees and expenses of the mediation will be allocated as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.
