ARTICLE III

 ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEW PROCESS


 


Section 3.1.               Review Notice and Identification of Review Receivables.  Within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of a Review Notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer will deliver a list of the Review Receivables to the Asset Representations Reviewer.  Upon receipt of a Review Notice and the related list of Review Receivables from the Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer will start a Review.


 


Section 3.2.               Review Materials.


 


(a) Access to Review Materials.  Within sixty (60) days of the delivery of a Review Notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer will give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Review Materials for all of the Review Receivables in one or more of the following ways, to be determined in the sole discretion of the Servicer: (i) by providing access to the Servicer’s receivables systems, either remotely or at an office of the Servicer, (ii) by electronic posting to a password-protected website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access, (iii) by providing scanned copies at an office of the Servicer where the Review Materials are located or (iv) in another manner agreed to between the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer.  The Servicer may redact or remove PII from the Review Materials, but will use commercially reasonable efforts not to change the meaning or usefulness of the Review Materials for the Review.


 


(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 determines that there are missing or insufficient Review Materials, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer and the Administrator promptly, and in any event no less than twenty (20) Business Days before completing the Review.  The Servicer will have fifteen (15) Business Days to give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct any such insufficiency.  If the missing or insufficient Review Materials or other documents or information have not been provided by the Servicer within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, the related Review Report will report a Test Fail for each Test in respect of which such missing or insufficient Review Materials is necessary to determine whether a Test Pass result is appropriate.


 


Section 3.3.               Performance of Reviews.


 


(a) Test Procedures.  For a Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform, for each Review Receivable, the procedures listed under “Tests” in Schedule B for each representation and warranty (each, a “Test”), using the Review Materials necessary to perform the procedures described for such Test in Schedule B.  For each Test and Review Receivable, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”) or if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”).


 



3















 


(b) Review Period.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Review of all of the Review Receivables within sixty (60) days after having received access to the Review Materials pursuant to Section 3.2(a).  However, if additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer in respect of any Review Receivables pursuant to Section 3.2(b), the Review period will be extended for an additional thirty (30) days in respect of any such Review Receivables.


 


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


 


(d) Previously Reviewed Receivable; Duplicative Tests.  If any Review Receivable was included in a prior Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not conduct additional Tests on such Review Receivable, but will include the previously reported Test results in the Review Report for the current Review.  If the same Test is required for more than one representation and warranty, the Asset Representations Reviewer will only perform the Test once for each Review Receivable, but will report the results of the Test for each applicable representation and warranty on the Review Report.


 


(e) Termination of Review.  If a Review is in process and the Notes will be paid in full on the next Payment Date, the Servicer or the Administrator will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer no less than ten (10) days before that Payment Date.  On receipt of such notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Review immediately and will not be obligated to deliver a Review Report.


 


Section 3.4.               Review Reports.  Within five (5) days after the end of the applicable Review period under Section 3.3(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer will deliver to the Issuer, the Servicer, the Depositor, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee a Review Report indicating for each Review Receivable whether there was a Test Pass, Test Fail or Test Complete for each related Test.  For each Test Fail or Test Complete, the Review Report will indicate the related reason, including (for example) whether the Review Receivable was a Test Fail as a result of missing or incomplete Review Materials.  The Review Report will contain a summary of the Review results 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 PII.  On reasonable request of the Servicer or the Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer will provide additional details on the Test results.

Section 3.5.               Review Representatives.


 


(a) Servicer Representative.  The Servicer will designate one or more representatives who will be available to assist the Asset Representations Reviewer in performing the Review, including responding to requests and answering questions from the Asset Representations Reviewer about access to Review Materials on the Servicer’s originations, receivables or other systems, obtaining missing or insufficient Review Materials and/or providing clarification of any Review Materials or Tests.


 


(b) Asset Representations Reviewer Representative.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will designate one or more representatives who will be available to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator during the performance of a Review.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will not be obligated to respond to questions or requests for clarification from Noteholders or any other Person and will direct such Persons, and the Indenture Trustee will direct the Noteholders, to submit written questions or requests to the Servicer.


 


Section 3.6.               Dispute Resolution.  If a Review Receivable that was the subject of a Review becomes the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 11.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of a party to the proceeding.  The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer for its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the requesting party for the dispute resolution and will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the mediator or arbitrator for the dispute resolution according to Section 11.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.  If not paid by a party to the dispute resolution, the expenses will be reimbursed by the Issuer according to Section 4.3(d) of this Agreement.


 


Section 3.7.               Limitations on Review Obligations.


 


(a) Review Process Limitations.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation: (i) to determine whether a Delinquency Trigger has occurred or whether the required percentage of Noteholders has voted to direct a Review under the Indenture; (ii) to determine which Receivables are the subject of a Review; (iii) to obtain or confirm the validity of the Review Materials; (iv) to obtain missing or insufficient Review Materials; (v) to take any action or cause any other party to take any action under any of the Basic Documents to enforce any remedies for breaches of representations or warranties; or (vi) to establish cause, materiality or recourse for any Test Fail as described in Section 3.3.

The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to hold and treat Confidential Information given to it under this Agreement in confidence and under the terms and conditions of this Section 4.9, and will implement and maintain safeguards to further assure the confidentiality of the Confidential Information.  The Confidential Information will not, without the prior consent of the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator, be disclosed or used by the Asset Representations Reviewer, or its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or affiliates, including legal counsel (collectively, the “Information Recipients”) other than for the purposes of performing Reviews of Review Receivables or performing its obligations under this Agreement.  The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates to not (i) purchase or sell securities issued by TMCC, the Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates or special purpose entities formed by any of the foregoing Persons on the basis of Confidential Information or (ii) use the Confidential Information for the preparation of research reports, newsletters or other publications or similar communications.


 


(b) Definition.  “Confidential Information” means oral, written and electronic materials (irrespective of its source or form of communication) furnished before, on or after the


 



10















 


date of this Agreement to the Asset Representations Reviewer for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, including:


 


(i)               lists of Review Receivables and any related Review Materials;


 


(ii)              origination and servicing guidelines, policies and procedures, and form contracts; and


 


(iii)             notes, analyses, compilations, studies or other documents or records prepared by the Servicer or the Administrator, which contain information supplied by or on behalf of the Servicer, the Administrator or their respective representatives.


 


However, Confidential Information will not include information that (A) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Information Recipients, (B) was available to, or becomes available to, the Information Recipients on a non-confidential basis from a Person or entity other than the Issuer, the Servicer or the Administrator before its disclosure to the Information Recipients who, to the knowledge of the Information Recipient is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Issuer, the Servicer or the Administrator and is not prohibited from transmitting the information to the Information Recipients, (C) is independently developed by the Information Recipients without the use of the Confidential Information, as shown by the Information Recipients’ files and records or other evidence in the Information Recipients’ possession or (D) the Issuer, the Servicer or the Administrator provides permission to the applicable Information Recipients to release.


 


(c) Protection.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of Confidential Information, including those measures that it takes to protect its own confidential information and not less than a reasonable standard of care.  The Asset Representations Reviewer acknowledges that PII is also subject to the additional requirements in Section 4.10.


 


(d) Disclosure.  If the Asset Representations Reviewer is required by applicable law, regulation, rule or order issued by an administrative, governmental, regulatory or judicial authority to disclose part of the Confidential Information, it may disclose the Confidential Information.  However, before a required disclosure, the Asset Representations Reviewer, if permitted by law, regulation, rule or order, will use its reasonable efforts to provide the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator with notice of the requirement and will cooperate, at the Issuer’s or the Servicer’s expense, as applicable, in the Issuer’s or the Servicer’s pursuit of a proper protective order or other relief for the disclosure of the Confidential Information.  If the Issuer or the Servicer is unable to obtain a protective order or other proper remedy by the date that the information is required to be disclosed, the Asset Representations Reviewer will disclose only that part of the Confidential Information that it is advised by its legal counsel it is legally required to disclose.


 


(e) Responsibility for Information Recipients.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will be responsible for a breach of this Section 4.9 by its Information Recipients.


 


(f) Violation.  The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees that a violation of this Agreement may cause irreparable injury to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator, and the


 



11















 


Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator may seek injunctive relief in addition to legal remedies.  If an action is initiated by the Issuer, the Servicer or the Administrator to enforce this Section 4.9, the prevailing party will be reimbursed for its fees and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred for the enforcement.


 


Section 4.10.               Personally Identifiable Information.


 


(a) Definitions.  “PII” means information in any format about an identifiable individual, including, name, address, phone number, e-mail address, account number(s), identification number(s), any other actual or assigned attribute associated with or identifiable to an individual and any information that when used separately or in combination with other information could identify an individual.  “Issuer PII” means PII furnished by the Issuer, the Servicer, the Administrator or their respective Affiliates to the Asset Representations Reviewer and PII developed or otherwise collected or acquired by the Asset Representations Reviewer in performing its obligations under this Agreement.


 


(b) Use of Issuer PII.  The Issuer does not grant the Asset Representations Reviewer any rights to Issuer PII except as provided in this Agreement.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will use Issuer PII only to perform its obligations under this Agreement or as specifically directed in writing by the Issuer and will only reproduce Issuer PII to the extent necessary for these purposes.  The Asset Representations Reviewer must comply with all laws applicable to PII, Issuer PII and the Asset Representations Reviewer’s business, including any legally required codes of conduct, including those relating to privacy, security and data protection.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will protect and secure Issuer PII.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will implement privacy or data protection policies and procedures that comply with applicable law and this Agreement.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate practices, procedures and systems, including administrative, technical and physical safeguards to (i) protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of Issuer PII, (ii) ensure against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of Issuer PII, (iii) protect against unauthorized access to or use of Issuer PII and (iv) otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement.  These safeguards include a written data security plan, employee training, information access controls, restricted disclosures, systems protections (e.g., intrusion protection, data storage protection and data transmission protection) and physical security measures.


 


(c) Additional Limitations.  In addition to the use and protection requirements described in Section 4.10(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer’s disclosure of Issuer PII is also subject to the following requirements:


 


(i)               The Asset Representations Reviewer will not disclose Issuer PII to its personnel or allow its personnel access to Issuer PII except (A) for the Asset Representations Reviewer personnel who require Issuer PII to perform a Review, (B) with the prior consent of the Issuer or (C) as required by applicable law.  When permitted, the disclosure of or access to Issuer PII will be limited to the specific information necessary for the individual to complete the assigned task.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will inform personnel with access to Issuer PII of the


 



12















 


confidentiality requirements in this Agreement and train its personnel with access to Issuer PII on the proper use and protection of Issuer PII.


 


(ii)               The Asset Representations Reviewer will not sell, disclose, provide or exchange Issuer PII with or to any third party without the prior consent of the Issuer.


 


(iii)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer’s use and handling of Issuer PII shall also be subject to the terms and limitations described in that separate letter agreement between TMCC and the Asset Representations Reviewer dated October 22, 2015 (the “Letter Agreement”) and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Letter Agreement and the terms of this Agreement related to the Asset Representations Reviewer’s use and handling of Issuer PII, the most restrictive of such terms shall govern.


 


(d) Notice of Breach.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator promptly in the event of an actual or reasonably suspected security breach, unauthorized access, misappropriation or other compromise of the security, confidentiality or integrity of Issuer PII and, where applicable, immediately take action to prevent any further breach.

Where the Asset Representations Reviewer retains Issuer PII, the Asset Representations Reviewer will limit the Asset Representations Reviewer’s further use or disclosure of Issuer PII to that required by applicable law.


 


(f) Compliance; Modification.  The Asset Representations Reviewer will cooperate with and provide information to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Administrator regarding the Asset Representations Reviewer’s compliance with this Section 4.10.
