What is a Loan Servicing Agreement?

A loan servicing agreement is a legal agreement between a lender and a third party, the servicer, that outlines the terms and conditions for which that third party will provide loan servicing services. Loan servicing is when a servicer offers administrative services for a lender and deals with the borrower directly in disbursement and with payments.

Loan servicing agreements may contain terms like what to do in the event of collections or liquidation of a loan, establishing deposits, and what compensation would be supplied to the servicer for their efforts. These agreements are standard, and usually, lenders do not service loans themselves but hire these third parties to provide that administrative service to them.

PURCHASER’S ENGAGEMENT OF SERVICER TO PERFORM SERVICING

 

  2.1 Contract for Servicing; Possession of Servicing Files.

From and after each Purchase Date and until the earlier of: (i) such date as all Loans become Liquidated Loans; or (ii) this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1, below, Purchaser appoints and contracts with Servicer as an independent contractor, subject to the terms of this Agreement, for the servicing of the Loans listed on the Loan Schedule. Such appointment is irrevocable except in the instances described in Section 7.2, below. Purchaser is the owner of the Servicing Rights relating to each Loan serviced by Servicer hereunder; except that Servicing Rights shall not include the customer relationship with, or the right to market to, Borrower, which rights shall remain with Servicer.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser hereby conveys and grants to Servicer, as Purchaser’s independent contractor, all Servicing Rights associated with the Loans. Servicer shall establish and maintain a Servicing File with respect to each Loan in order to service such Loan pursuant to this Agreement, and such Servicing File is and shall be held in trust by Servicer on behalf of and for the benefit of Purchaser as Purchaser thereof. Each Loan Document and the contents of the Servicing File shall be vested in Purchaser, and the ownership of all records and documents with respect to the related Loan prepared by or which come into the possession or control of Servicer shall immediately vest in Purchaser and shall be retained and maintained, in trust, by Servicer at the will of Purchaser in such custodial capacity only. Each Servicing File shall be maintained electronically and shall be appropriately identified or recorded to reflect the ownership of the related Loan by Purchaser. Servicer shall release from its custody the contents of any Servicing File retained by it only in accordance with this Agreement, and Purchaser shall thereafter hold such Servicing File in accordance with this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement. To the extent that original documents are not required for purposes of realization of Loan proceeds, documents maintained by Servicer will be in digital format.

Servicer shall maintain the Servicing Files and the Loan Documents electronically and such files and documents may be accessed at the Servicer Physical Payment Address or such other physical location as designated by Servicer in writing; provided, however, in no event shall physical or electronic copies of Servicing Files be housed outside the continental United States.

Record title to each Loan and the related Promissory Note shall remain in the name of Purchaser.

 

  2.2 Delegation of Duties.

In the ordinary course of business, Servicer may delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Subcontractor who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices. Servicer shall remain responsible for the performance of any Subcontractor retained to perform any function required to be performed by Servicer hereunder. Such delegation shall not

relieve Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties, and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 6.03 hereof. Servicer shall provide Purchaser with prior written notice to the delegation of any of its duties as Servicer to any Subcontractor other than an Affiliate of Servicer.

 

  2.3 Assistance and Cooperation of Purchaser.

If any actions of Purchaser are necessary or appropriate in connection with the servicing and administration of the Loans hereunder, then Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to perform such actions in a timely manner and to cooperate with and assist Servicer in connection with such actions; provided that, so long as Servicing Rights with respect to the Purchased Loans remain with Servicer pursuant to Section 2.1, Purchaser shall not contact any Borrower without the prior written consent of Servicer, unless Purchaser (or an Affiliate thereof) is acting as a Collection Agent on behalf of Servicer.

  3.1 Servicer to Service.

Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer each Loan from and after the related Purchase Date in accordance with Applicable Law, the Accepted Servicing Practices and the terms of this Agreement and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through the utilization of Subcontractors, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration as limited by the terms of this Agreement and Accepted Servicing Practices. Servicer’s general obligations with respect to the servicing of Loans hereunder shall include, without limitation, the following:

(i) Maintaining a bank account, address, or other electronic or physical facility to which Borrower is instructed to send payments due under the terms of each Loan;

(ii) Attempting to collect Borrower payments from that address on the schedule set forth in the applicable Loan Documents;

(iii) Correctly posting Proceeds from all collected Borrower payments to the applicable Purchaser Online Account;

(iv) Maintaining a toll free number (staffed between normal business hours during its regular Business Days) for Borrowers to call with inquiries with respect to the Loans, and responding to such inquiries;

(v) Responding to inquiries by any Regulatory Authority with respect to the Loans (provided, however, that Servicer shall give Purchaser, as soon as reasonably practicable, prior written notice of and the opportunity to participate in any such inquiry);

(vii) On behalf of Purchaser, reporting to one or more of the major national consumer reporting agencies, as further set forth in this Agreement, the credit status of the Loans being serviced by Servicer for Purchaser; and

(viii) Processing final payments provided by Borrowers on the Loans.

Any material changes made to the Accepted Servicing Practices involving the practices and procedures followed by Servicer shall be communicated to Purchaser in the same method and manner as such change is communicated to the public. Unless otherwise agreed to by Servicer and Purchaser, Servicer shall be responsible for any and all acts of any Subcontractors and any Collection Agent, and Servicer’s utilization of any such Subcontractors and any Collection Agent shall in no way relieve the liability of Servicer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of any agreement between the Servicer and such Subcontractors, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between Servicer or any Subcontractor or reference to actions taken through Servicer or otherwise, Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to Purchaser and its permitted successors and assigns for the servicing and administration of the Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such agreements or arrangements with any Subcontractor or by virtue of indemnification from Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Loans.

Servicer may grant, permit or facilitate any Loan Modification for any Loan, provided that such Loan Modification (i) is consistent with the Accepted Servicing Practices and (ii) is, in Servicer’s reasonable determination, a practical manner to obtain a reasonable recovery from such Loan based upon Servicer’s prior servicing experience for similar consumer loans. Servicer shall notify Purchaser through the Purchaser Online Account of any Loan Modification granted, permitted or facilitated by Servicer. Servicer shall not charge any Borrower any fees not contemplated in the Loan Documents without giving effect to any Loan Modifications or other amendments or modifications directed by Servicer in accordance with this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and Purchaser, all notices or instruments of satisfaction, cancellation or termination, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Loans; provided, however, that Servicer shall not be entitled to release, discharge, terminate or cancel any Loan or the related Loan Documents unless (i) such Loan is a Charged Off Loan, (ii) Servicer shall have received payment in full of all principal, interest and fees owed by the Borrower related thereto, or in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices, or (iii) Servicer accepts a reduced payment of full principal, interest and fees owed on such Loan that is a Nonperforming Loan. If reasonably required by Servicer, Purchaser shall furnish Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, and Servicer shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless for any costs, liabilities or expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with any use of such power of attorney by Servicer or its agents in breach of this Agreement.

 

8


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Servicer shall comply with the commercially reasonable written instructions of Purchaser necessary to comply with any regulatory requirements applicable to, or agreed to by, Purchaser or any supervisory rules agreed to or imposed on the Purchaser and delivered to the Servicer from time to time with respect to the servicing of the Loans. It is understood by the Parties hereto that in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and Purchaser’s written instructions, Purchaser’s written instructions shall control; provided, however, that in the event that there is a conflict between Purchaser’s written instructions and any Applicable Law, the Accepted Servicing Practices, or the Loan Documents, Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with prompt notice of such conflict, and in such case, the Applicable Law, the Accepted Servicing Practices or the Loan Documents shall control, in the foregoing order of priority, to resolve the conflict.

 

  3.2 Collection of Payments and Liquidation of Loans.

(a) Collection of Payments. Continuously from the related Purchase Date until the date each Loan becomes a Liquidated Loan or otherwise ceases to be subject to this Agreement, in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices, Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect all Monthly Payments and any other payments due under each of the Loans when the same shall become due and payable.

(b) Loss Mitigation. With respect to any Loan, subject to the Accepted Servicing Practices, Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to realize upon Loans in such a manner that reasonably attempts to maximize the receipt of principal and interest for Purchaser, including pursuing any Loan Modification pursuant to Section 3.01(b) or pursuing other loss mitigation or other default recovery actions consistent with the Accepted Servicing Practices.

(c) Charged Off Loans. Promptly following any Loan satisfying the charge off criteria as set forth in its Charge Off Policy, Servicer shall, in accordance with the Charge-Off Policy, charge off the related Loan (the date of such charge-off being the “Charge Off Date” and each such Loan, a “Charged Off Loan”). Servicer shall facilitate the sale and transfer of the Loan and the Loan Documents for such Charged Off Loan to a Charged Off Loan Purchaser (other than Charged Off Loans that are deemed non-conforming or ineligible for purchase by such Charged Off Loan Purchaser) and, subject to Section 3.1(a), Servicer shall be relieved of its ongoing servicing and collection obligations hereunder, except with respect to causing any proceeds to be deposited into the Purchaser Online Account pursuant to Section 3.3 and Section 3.4.

(d) Power of Attorney. Concurrent with the signing of this Agreement, Purchaser will deliver a fully executed, notarized Power of Attorney in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, naming Servicer as Purchaser’s attorney-in-fact to: (i) carry out the terms of Section 3.2(c) in connection with the sale and transfer of a Charged Off Loan; (ii) execute a joinder agreement joining Purchaser to an agreement or agreements between Servicer and (A) a Charged Off Loan Broker and (B) a Charged Off Loan Purchaser; and (iii) take any action and execute any instruments or documents that Servicer may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to transfer and convey each of the Charged Off Loans from Purchaser to a Charged Off Loan Purchaser or its successors or assignees in accordance with this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement.

 

9


(e) Establishment of and Deposits to the Purchaser Online Account. Prior to its purchase of any loans, Purchaser will establish the Purchaser Online Account, as provided for in the Purchase Agreement. Purchaser shall grant and provide Servicer with rights to cause funds to be deposited into and withdrawn from the Purchaser Online Account for the purpose of performing its servicing functions pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation by way of automated clearing house (“ACH”) transfer.

Servicer shall cause to be deposited into the Purchaser Online Account within four (4) Business Days of the receipt by Servicer of payment made to or at the direction of Servicer the following collections received from the Loans and payments made by the related Borrowers after each Purchase Date (clauses (i) through (v) below, collectively, the “Proceeds”):

(i) all payments on account of principal on the Loans, including all Principal Prepayments;

(ii) all payments on account of interest and fees (excluding Ancillary Fees) on the Loans;

(iii) all Liquidation Proceeds;

(iv) to the extent not otherwise included in any other clauses of this Section 3.03, any net proceeds from the Loans whether by any Subcontractor or Collection Agent; and

(v) any other collections from the Loans and any other amounts required to be deposited or transferred into the Purchaser Online Account pursuant to this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the above, Liquidation Proceeds from the sale of Charged Off Loans sold on behalf of Purchaser will be retained by Servicer until the expiration of any period during which any Charged Off Loan Purchaser is contractually permitted to require repurchase by Purchaser under any agreement relating to the sale of Charged Off Loans to which Purchaser has been contractually joined pursuant to Section 3.2(d).

In the event that Servicer receives any payments on any Loans directly from or on behalf of the Borrower or any payments at a Servicer Physical Payment Address, Servicer shall receive all such payments in trust for the sole and exclusive benefit of Purchaser, and shall cause to be deposited into the Purchaser Online Account within four (4) Business Days all such payments described in this Section 3.3 (in the form so received) as and when received by Servicer.

Servicer shall segregate and hold any and all funds collected and received by Servicer on the Loans separate and apart from any of its own funds. Any amounts received by Servicer shall be held in trust by Servicer for the benefit of Purchaser as the owner of the Loans pending deposit to the Purchaser Online Account and shall not be subject to any set-off or counterclaim by Servicer, except with respect to any netting of funds as provided in Section 3.3 and Section 3.4.

 

10


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) payments in the nature of Servicing Compensation may be retained by Servicer and need not be deposited into the Purchaser Online Account, and (b) Servicer may net any amounts that it is entitled to pursuant to Section 3.4(i) or Section 3.4(ii) against any funds for deposit to the Purchaser Online Account. Any benefit derived from funds deposited into the Purchaser Online Account shall accrue to the benefit of Purchaser.

(f) Permitted Netting and Withdrawal of Proceeds. Servicer shall, from time to time, be allowed to offset against Proceeds prior to deposit into the Purchaser Online Account and, if necessary, withdraw from the Purchaser Online Account funds for the following purposes:

(i) to pay itself the earned and unpaid Servicing Compensation on such dates as determined by Servicer, subject to providing prior notice as described below; or

(ii) to remove funds transferred in error or funds that are required to be returned for any reason, subject in each case to providing information regarding the offset or withdrawal as described below.

In the case of clause (i) above, prior to the netting or withdrawal or, in the case of clause (ii) above, within five (5) Business Days after the netting or withdrawal, Servicer shall provide Purchaser with information regarding any netting or withdrawal of funds subject to clauses (i) or (ii) above, together with reasonable supporting details. Servicer shall keep and maintain, in a digital format reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, separate accounting records, on a Loan by Loan basis, for the purpose of substantiating any deposits into and withdrawals from the Purchaser Online Account or netting of Proceeds as permitted above.

(g) Credit/Other Reporting.

Recipient shall be responsible for any breach of this paragraph (a) by any of its Representatives.

In addition to its general obligation to comply with Applicable Law, the Parties shall also adhere to the following requirements regarding the confidentiality and security of Borrower information and Loan Documents:

(i) Definitions:

(1) “Borrower Information” means any personally identifiable information or records in any form (oral, written, graphic, electronic, machine-readable, or

  5.3 Indemnification and Notice of Claims.

Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates, trustees, directors, officers, employees, members, managers, representatives, stockholders and agents from and against any third party claims, losses, reasonable attorneys’ fees, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, or suits for injury to any Person, damage to or loss of property, or any other claim directly arising out of and to the extent attributable to a) any grossly negligent or willful act or omission of Servicer, its employees, or agents or b) the material breach of performance by Servicer of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument, or document executed in connection with this Agreement, including the failure to be in material compliance with Applicable Law.

Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Servicer and its Affiliates, trustees, directors, officers, employees, members, managers, representatives, stockholders and agents from and against any third party claims, losses, reasonable attorneys’ fees, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, or suits for injury to any Person, damage to or loss of property, or any other claim directly arising out of and to the extent attributable to a) any grossly negligent or willful act or omission of Purchaser, its employees, agents, or subcontractors or b) the material breach of performance by it of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument, or document executed in connection with this Agreement including the failure to be in material compliance with Applicable Law.

A Party seeking indemnification under this Section 5.3 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or matter for which it may seek indemnity. The Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against a third party claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the claim or matter that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with this Article, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the third party claim or matter actively and diligently. The Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the claim.

Knowledge by the Indemnified Party of any breach or non-compliance hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, provided the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party of such breach or non-compliance in a timely manner. No express or implied waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any default hereunder shall in any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any other default. The failure or delay of the Indemnified Party to exercise any of its rights granted hereunder regarding any default shall not constitute a waiver of such right as to any other default and any single or partial exercise of any particular right granted the Indemnified Party hereunder shall not exhaust the same or constitute a waiver of any other right provided herein.

(v) Purchaser shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to Purchaser or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property.
