§514E-24 - Additional requirements for lien payment trusts.
§514E-24 Additional requirements for lien
payment trusts. (a) If a lien payment trust is established to meet the
requirements of section 514E-19, then in addition to the requirements of
section 514E-22, the trust instrument shall:
(1) Require the deposit into trust of a lien payment
deposit meeting the requirements of section 514E-25, before closing the sale of
the first time share interest.
(2) Require the deposit into trust before closing the
sale of the first time share interest, and the retention for the duration of
the trust, of an installment payment reserve consisting of funds in an amount
at all times sufficient:
(A) To pay the total of three successive
monthly installments of debt service on the blanket lien(s); provided if the
developer complies with section 514E-25(c), the amount paid shall be a pro rata
share of the amount required above, determined in accordance with section
514E-25(c).
(i) If installments of debt service are due
less frequently than monthly, the funds retained in trust shall be sufficient
to pay all installments becoming due within the next succeeding six months, the
next installment due.
(ii) If the payments of debt service are not
payable in equal installments, such additional funds shall be retained in the
trust as the director shall determine to be reasonably necessary to assure that
the trustee will have sufficient cash to pay any installments under the blanket
liens when due.
(B) To create a sinking fund to extinguish the
debt at its maturity if a blanket lien against the trust property is an
interest-only loan, contains a balloon payment provision, or is otherwise not
fully amortized under the terms for repayment.
(3) Authorize the trustee to sell, transfer,
hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise dispose of the purchase money contracts or
other assets composing the lien payment deposit or any portion thereof, if in
the trustee's judgment, such action is necessary in order to enable the trustee
to make all payments required to be made under the blanket liens so as to
prevent any foreclosure thereof.
(4) Require the developer to replenish the funds and
assets in the trust whenever the lien payment deposit or the funds in the
installment payment reserve fail to meet the requirements set forth in this
section.
(5) Provide that the trustee periodically shall
disburse funds in the trust as follows: first, to the payment of real property
taxes, governmental assessments, and lease rent, if any; second, to the payment
of current payments then due on the blanket liens, in their order of priority;
third, to any sinking fund established for the payment of blanket liens,
including any prepayment penalties and release prices; fourth, to any service
charges and costs payable to the trustee and its collection agent, if any,
pursuant to the trust instrument; and fifth, to the developer or as directed by
the developer.
(6) Contain any other provisions required by the
director as provided by rules adopted pursuant to chapter 91.
(b) If a lien payment trust is established to
meet the requirements of section 514E-19, every purchase money contract must
contain the following provision in at least ten-point bold face type:
NOTICE
Immediately
upon demand by the trustee under the lien payment trust for the time share plan,
the holder of this document must promptly deliver to the trustee all payments
made by the purchaser after the trustee mails or otherwise sends notice that
the funds and other assets in the trust are inadequate to meet the requirements
for the lien payment deposit. The holder must continue to send the trustee the
purchaser's payments until the lien payment deposit is replenished.
