Under the terms of the Trinidad Depository Agreement, read as a whole in order to effectuate its purpose, the failure to deposit project revenues into the Trinidad Revenue Account constituted a breach of the agreement. However, with regard to the alleged failure to notify bondholders or rating agencies of a default, the terms of the Indenture did not require defendant to act unless it had written notice of default. There is no allegation of such notice. Section 9.3 of the Indenture expressly requires "actual knowledge" of a default in the form of written notification. With regard to defendant's alleged failure to act prudently upon occurrence of a default, no such duty was ever triggered in the absence of written notification of default ( see Argonaut Partnership v. Bankers Trustee Co., 2001 US Dist LEXIS 7100, *5-7 [SD NY]).
As to defendant's alleged failure to collect an additional 0.5% in interest, the Indenture makes no reference to such escalation. Inasmuch as defendant was not a party to the Registration Rights Agreement under which this additional interest is claimed, it had neither duty nor standing to enforce the agreement for anyone's benefit ( see Beck v. Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co., 218 A.D.2d 1, 14).
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
