Material Instances of Non-Compliance by the Company
1122(d)(2)(i): Payments on pool assets are deposited into the appropriate custodial bank accounts and related bank clearing accounts no more than two business days of receipt, or such other number of days specified in the transaction agreements.
During the reporting period, certain payments on pool assets were not deposited into the appropriate segregated custodial bank account within the time frame required by the related transaction documents.
The segregated account for each specified series of securities was in existence prior to the time the deposits were to be made into such account but such account was not utilized in all instances by the Trustee as stated above. However, payments related to each specified series of securities were timely remitted to the investors in such series.
Existing procedures have been reviewed with staff to enable future payments to be deposited into the segregated account for each specified series within the applicable time frames.
