Section 3.11          Replacement of Ineligible Accounts.  If, at any time, either of the Series 2018-1 Class A-1 Distribution Account or the Series 2018-1 Class A-2 Distribution Account shall cease to be an Eligible Account (each, a “Series 2018-1 Ineligible Account”), the Master Issuer shall (i) within five (5) Business Days of obtaining knowledge thereof, notify the Control Party thereof and (ii) within sixty (60) days of obtaining actual knowledge thereof, (A) establish, or cause to be established, a new account that is an Eligible Account in substitution for such Series 2018-1 Ineligible Account, (B) following the establishment of such new Eligible Account, transfer or, with respect to the Trustee Accounts maintained at the Trustee, instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash and investments from such Series 2018-1 Ineligible Account into such new Eligible Account and (C) pledge, or cause to be pledged, such new Eligible Account to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, if such new Eligible Account is not established with the Trustee, cause such new Eligible Account to be subject to an Account Control Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Control Party and the Trustee.
