Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans (a) The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in the Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1 and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it holds or will hold such other assets as are included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee acknowledges that it will maintain possession of the Mortgage Notes in the State of California, unless otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies. The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1. Based on its review and examination, and only as to the documents identified in such Initial Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that such documents appear regular on their face and relate to such Initial Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. On or about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller a Delay Delivery Certification with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller a Final Certification with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. If, in the course of such review, the Trustee finds any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01, the Trustee shall list such as an exception in the Final Certification; provided, however that the Trustee shall not make any determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. The Seller shall promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it was so notified of such defect and, if the Seller does not correct or cure such defect within such period, the Seller shall either (a) substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such substitution or purchase occur more than 540 days from the Closing Date, except that if the substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the appropriate recording office, and there is a dispute between either the Master Servicer or the Seller and the Trustee over the location or status of the recorded document, then such substitution or purchase shall occur within 720 days from the Closing Date. The Trustee shall deliver written notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing Date indicating each Mortgage Loan (a) which has not been returned by the appropriate recording office or (b) as to which there is a dispute as to location or status of such Mortgage Loan. Such notice shall be delivered every 90 days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned to the Trustee.

No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the Seller in the Certificate Account on or prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N hereto, the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the Seller's request such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Seller, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing provisions the Seller repurchases an Initial Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS(R) System the Seller as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.

Acceptance by Trustee The Trustee acknowledges receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement, and based solely upon a receipt or certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(b)(i) above (except that for purposes of such acknowledgement only, a Mortgage Note may be endorsed in blank) and declares that it, or a Custodian as its agent, holds and will hold such documents and the other documents constituting a part of the Mortgage Files delivered to it, or a Custodian as its agent, and the rights of Residential Funding with respect to any Pledged Assets, Additional Collateral and the Surety Bond assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01, in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or Custodian (such Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement) agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b) within 45 days after the Closing Date to ascertain that all required documents (specifically as set forth in Section 2.01(b)), have been executed and received, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, as supplemented, that have been conveyed to it, and to deliver to the Trustee a certificate (the "Interim Certification") to the effect that all documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b) above have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. Upon delivery of the Mortgage Files by the Company or the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall acknowledge receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement, and based solely upon a receipt or certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(c) above. If the Custodian, as the Trustee's agent, finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective, the Trustee shall promptly so notify the Master Servicer and the Company. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian will notify the Master Servicer, the Company and the Trustee of any such omission or defect found by it in respect of any Mortgage File held by it in respect of the items reviewed by it pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. If such omission or defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the related Subservicer or Seller of such omission or defect and request that such Subservicer or Seller correct or cure such omission or defect within 60 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such omission or defect and, if such Subservicer or Seller does not correct or cure such omission or defect within such period, that such Subservicer or Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at its Purchase Price, in either case within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such omission or defect; provided that if the omission or defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan, whether purchased by the Seller or the Subservicer, shall be deposited or caused to be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account maintained by it pursuant to Section 3.07 and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Master Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee or the Subservicer or its designee, as the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and thereafter such Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust Fund. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Subservicer or Seller that repurchases the Mortgage Loan is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the MERS(R) System, the Master Servicer, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to such Subservicer or Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller or the Subservicer, as the case may be, to so cure or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which a material and adverse defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect or omission available to Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

(b) On or about the 75th day following the Closing Date, the Custodian shall review the documents delivered to it with respect to each Original Mortgage Loan, and the Custodian shall, subject to Sections 1.04, 2.02(c) and 2.02(d), certify in writing (and, if any exceptions are noted or if the recordation/filing contemplated by Section 2.01(e) has not been completed (based solely on receipt by the Custodian of the particular documents showing evidence of the recordation/filing), the Custodian shall deliver updates to any exception list attached to such certification in accordance with the penultimate sentence of this paragraph (which exception list shall also be delivered in Excel-compatible format)) to each of the other parties hereto (substantially in the form of Exhibit M), the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Serviced Companion Loan Holders (in each case, provided that the Custodian has received notice of the identity of and notice address information for such Serviced Companion Loan Holder), the Majority Subordinate Certificateholder and the Subordinate Class Representative that, as to each Original Mortgage Loan then subject to this Agreement (except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such certification): (i) the original Mortgage Note specified in clause (i) of the definition of “Mortgage File” and all allonges thereto, if any (or a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a lost note affidavit and indemnity) and, except with respect to a Non-Trust-Serviced Pooled Mortgage Loan, the original or copy of documents specified in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (viii) (without regard to the verification of the effective date with respect to a title policy or the date of funding with respect to a title commitment), (x) (if the Mortgage Loan Schedule specifies that a material portion of the interest of the Borrower in the related Mortgaged Property consists of a leasehold interest) and (xx) (if the Mortgage Loan Schedule specifies that the Mortgaged Property type is a hospitality property) of the definition of “Mortgage File” have been received by it; (ii) if such report is due more than 180 days after the Closing Date, the recordation/filing contemplated by Section 2.01(e) has been completed (based solely on receipt by the Custodian of the particular recorded/filed documents or an appropriate receipt of recording/filing therefor); (iii) all documents received by it with respect to such Mortgage Loan have been reviewed by it and (A) appear regular on their face (handwritten additions, changes or corrections shall not constitute irregularities if initialed by the Borrower), (B) appear to have been executed and (C) purport to relate to such Mortgage Loan; and (iv) based on the examinations referred to in Section 2.02(a) above and this Section 2.02(b) and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clause (iv)(A) and clause (vi) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects the information set forth in the related Mortgage File. Every ninety (90) days after such 75th day following the Closing Date, until the earlier of (i) the date on which such exceptions are eliminated and such recordation/filing has been completed, and (ii) the date on which all the affected Mortgage Loans are removed from the Trust Fund, the Custodian shall deliver electronically (including in Excel-compatible format) to each of the other parties hereto, to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Serviced Companion Loan Holders, the Majority Subordinate Certificateholder and the Subordinate Class Representative an update to the exception report annexed to the certification described above substantially in the form of Exhibit M, which update shall report any remaining outstanding exceptions with respect to each Original Mortgage Loan. Such delivery shall be deemed to constitute a certification of the substance of the matters set forth in the form of such Exhibit M (except as set forth in such exception report). The Master Servicer shall provide the contact name, mailing address and e-mail address of any Serviced Companion Loan Holder to the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator to the extent not previously provided thereto, provided that the Master Servicer has such information. The contact name, mailing address and e-mail address of each initial Serviced Companion Loan Holder is set forth on Schedule IX hereto.
(c) If a Responsible Repurchase Party substitutes a Replacement Mortgage Loan for any Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by Section 2.03, the Custodian shall review the documents delivered to it with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loan, and the Custodian shall deliver a certification comparable to that described in the prior paragraph, in respect of such Replacement Mortgage Loan, on or about the 30th day following the related date of substitution (and, if any exceptions are noted, every ninety (90) days thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date on which such exceptions are eliminated and all related recording/filing has been completed, and (ii) the date on which such Replacement Mortgage Loan is removed from the Trust Fund). With respect to the documents described in clause (iii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, the Custodian may assume, for purposes of the certification(s) delivered in this Section 2.02(c) or to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(b), that the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan includes a separate Assignment of Leases. With respect to the documents described in clause (ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, absent actual knowledge to the contrary or copies of UCC Financing Statements delivered to the Custodian as part of the Mortgage File indicating otherwise, the Custodian may assume, for purposes of the certification(s) to be delivered pursuant to this Section 2.02(c), that the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan should include a copy of one state-level UCC Financing Statement filed in the state of incorporation or organization of the related Borrower for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Borrowers, for each related Borrower). To the extent appropriate under applicable law, the UCC Financing Statements to be assigned to the Trustee will be delivered on the new national forms and in recordable form and will be filed in the state of incorporation or organization as so indicated on the documents provided.
(d) None of the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Custodian or the Trust Advisor is under any duty or obligation to (i) determine whether any of the documents specified in clauses (iii), (iv)(B), (v), (vi), (vii), (ix) and (xi) through (xviii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” exist or are required to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers in respect of any Mortgage Loan unless such item(s) are specified on the related Mortgage File Checklist, or (ii) inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are valid, legal, effective, genuine, binding, enforceable, sufficient or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. Furthermore, except as expressly provided in Section 2.01(e), none of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Custodian or the Trust Advisor shall have any responsibility for determining whether the text of any assignment or endorsement is in proper or recordable form, whether the requisite recording of any document is in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction.
(e) In performing the reviews contemplated by subsections (a) and (b) above, the Custodian may conclusively rely on the related Mortgage Loan Seller as to the purported genuineness of any such document and any signature thereon. It is understood that the scope of the Custodian’s review of the Mortgage Files is limited solely to confirming that the documents specified in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) (except with respect to a Non-Trust-Serviced Pooled Mortgage Loan), (viii) (without regard to the verification of the effective date with respect to a title policy or the date of funding with respect to a title commitment), (x) (if the Mortgage Loan Schedule specifies that a material portion of the interest of the Borrower in the related Mortgaged Property consists of a leasehold interest) and (xx) (if the Mortgage Loan Schedule specifies that the Mortgaged Property type is a hospitality property) of the definition of “Mortgage File” have been received by it and such additional information as will be necessary for delivering the certifications required by subsections (a) and (b) above.
Events of Default; Trustee To Act; Appointment of Successor (a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:
(i) Any failure by the Master Servicer to furnish the Securities Administrator the Mortgage Loan data sufficient to prepare the reports described in Section 4.04 which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure shall have been given to such Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator or to such Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% of the Class Principal Amount of each Class of Certificates affected thereby; or
(ii) Any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements (other than those referred to in (viii) and (ix) below) on the part of the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, or to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of more than 50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates; or
(iii) A decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Master Servicer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days or any Rating Agency reduces or withdraws or threatens to reduce or withdraw the rating of the Certificates because of the financial condition or loan servicing capability of such Master Servicer; or
(iv) The Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(v) The Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(vi) The Master Servicer shall be dissolved, or shall dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, or consolidate with or merge into another entity or shall permit another entity to consolidate or merge into it, such that the resulting entity does not meet the criteria for a successor servicer as specified in Section 9.05 hereof; or
(vii) A representation or warranty set forth in Section 9.03 hereof shall prove to be incorrect as of the time made in any respect that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders, and the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or cured within 30 days after the date on which written notice of such incorrect representation or warranty shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, or to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of more than 50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates; or
(viii) A sale or pledge of any of the rights of the Master Servicer hereunder or an assignment of this Agreement by the Master Servicer or a delegation of the rights or duties of the Master Servicer hereunder shall have occurred in any manner not otherwise permitted hereunder and without the prior written consent of the Trustee and Certificateholders holding more than 50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates;
(ix) After receipt of notice from the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, any failure of the Master Servicer to make any Advances required to be made hereunder; or
(x) Any failure by the Master Servicer to comply with the provisions of Article XI. If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this Section shall occur, then, in each and every case, subject to applicable law, so long as any such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within any period of time prescribed by this Section, the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer may, and shall, if so directed by Certificateholders evidencing more than 50% of the Class Principal Amount of each Class of Certificates, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer, and only in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee; and the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the defaulting Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents or otherwise. If Event of Default set forth in clause (x) occurs, the Depositor, at its sole option, but with the consent of the Trustee, may permit a cure period for the Master Servicer to deliver such Assessment of Compliance or Accountant’s Attestation, but in no event later than March 25th of such year. The defaulting Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee and the Securities Administrator in effecting the termination of the defaulting Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as Master Servicer including, without limitation, notifying the Servicers of the assignment of the master servicing function and providing the Trustee or its designee all documents and records in electronic or other form reasonably requested by it to enable the Trustee or its designee to assume the defaulting Master Servicer’s functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee for administration by it of all amounts which shall at the time be or should have been deposited by the defaulting Master Servicer in the Distribution Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer being terminated shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs of a master servicing transfer, including but not limited to those of the Trustee or Securities Administrator reasonably allocable to legal fees and expenses, accounting and financial consulting fees and expenses, and costs of amending the Agreement, if necessary. Notwithstanding the termination of its activities as Master Servicer, each terminated Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement to the extent such reimbursement relates to the period prior to such Master Servicer’s termination. If any Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge shall occur, the Trustee, upon becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator and each Rating Agency of the nature and extent of such Event of Default. The Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall immediately give written notice to the Master Servicer upon the Master Servicer’s failure to make Advances as required under this Agreement.
(b) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination from the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14(a) or the Trustee receives the resignation of the Master Servicer evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 9.06, the Trustee, unless another master servicer shall have been appointed, shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as such under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer hereunder, including the obligation to make Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Agreement shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In addition, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any act or omission of the Master Servicer prior to the receipt by the Master Servicer of any notice of termination. The Trustee shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 9.03. In the Trustee's capacity as such successor, the Trustee shall have the same limitations on liability herein granted to the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive all compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 9.04 of this Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to continue to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, or appoint on its own behalf any established housing and home finance institution servicer, master servicer, servicing or mortgage servicing institution having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and meeting such other standards for a successor master servicer as are set forth in this Agreement, as the successor to such Master Servicer in the assumption of all of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of a master servicer, like the Master Servicer. Any entity designated by the Trustee as a successor master servicer may be an Affiliate of the Trustee; provided, however, that, unless such Affiliate meets the net worth requirements and other standards set forth herein for a successor master servicer, the Trustee, in its individual capacity shall agree, at the time of such designation, to be and remain liable to the Trust Fund for such Affiliate’s actions and omissions in performing its duties hereunder. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans, as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such actions, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession and may make other arrangements with respect to the servicing to be conducted hereunder which are not inconsistent herewith. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and any successor master servicer in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder including, without limitation, notifying Mortgagors of the assignment of the master servicing functions and providing the Trustee and successor master servicer, as applicable, all documents and records in electronic or other form reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee or such successor master servicer, as applicable, all amounts which shall at the time be or should have been deposited by the Master Servicer in the Distribution Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii) the failure of the Master Servicer to cooperate as required by this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver the Mortgage Loan data to the Trustee as required by this Agreement or (iv) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer. No successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Trustee to deliver, or any delay in delivering cash, documents or records to it related to such distribution, or (ii) the failure of Trustee to cooperate as required by this Agreement.
Acceptance of REMIC I by the Trustee Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, the Trustee or the Custodian acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(a)(iv)) above and all other assets included under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of “REMIC I” (to the extent of amounts deposited into the Distribution Account) and declares that the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File on behalf of the Trust, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee also acknowledges receipt of the amounts on deposit in the Net WAC Reserve Fund in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee agrees on or before the Closing Date, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review, or cause the Custodian to review, each Mortgage File and to certify and deliver, or cause the Custodian to certify and deliver an initial certification, to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 (the “Initial Certification”). It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, neither the Trustee nor the Custodian was under any duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose (including with respect to Section 2.01(a)(vi), whether such title insurance policy insures the priority of the Mortgage as a first lien) or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in Section 2.01(a)(iv). Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee, the Seller and the Servicer a final certification in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 (the “Final Certification”) evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee or the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee shall so notify the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originator or the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, respectively, in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement against the Originator or the Seller, respectively, shall be effected by the Trustee. The Trustee shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the Person against which such enforcement is directed; provided, however, if the sources of reimbursement described in clauses (i) and (ii) are insufficient, the Trustee may seek reimbursement for any remaining unreimbursed costs of such enforcement from the Trust Fund as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.
Acceptance by Successor Trustee Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06. No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders. If the Company fails to deliver such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be delivered at the expense of the Company.
Acceptance of the Mortgage Loans (a) Based on the Initial Certification received by it from the Custodian, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of, subject to the further review and exceptions reported by the Custodian pursuant to the procedures described below, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf pursuant to Section 2.01 and declares that it holds and will continue to hold directly or through a custodian those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust Fund delivered to it in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will deliver an Initial Certification, in the form of Exhibit One to the Custodial Agreement, confirming whether or not it has received the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan, but without review of such Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm whether such Mortgage File contains the original Mortgage Note or a lost note affidavit and indemnity in lieu thereof. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File delivered to it and execute and deliver to EMC (on its own behalf and on behalf of Master Funding) and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the Custodian or the Trustee, an Interim Certifications, substantially in the form of Exhibit Two to the Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will ascertain whether all required documents have been executed and received and whether those documents relate, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B to this Agreement, as supplemented (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and (vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually delivered pursuant to such subclauses). In performing any such review, the Trustee and the Custodian may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File not to have been executed or received, or to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear to be defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall include such information in the exception report attached to the Interim Certification. EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall correct or cure any such defect or, if prior to the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) may substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 or shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) fails to correct or cure the defect or deliver such opinion within such period, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) will, subject to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification of the Trustee purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) to deliver the Mortgage, assignment thereof to the Trustee, or intervening assignments thereof with evidence of recording thereon because such documents have been submitted for recording and have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan if EMC delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date.
(b) No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will review, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Mortgage Files and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) and the Master Servicer and, if reviewed by the Custodian or the Trustee, a Final Certification, substantially in the form of Exhibit Three to the Custodial Agreement. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will ascertain whether each document required to be recorded has been returned from the recording office with evidence of recording thereon and the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf has received either an original or a copy thereof, as required in Section 2.01 (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subclauses (iv) and (vi) of Section 2.01, such obligations shall extend only to documents actually delivered pursuant to such subclauses). If the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds any document with respect to a Mortgage Loan has not been received, or to be unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall note such defect in the exception report attached to the Final Certification and shall promptly notify EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding). EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall correct or cure any such defect or, if prior to the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) may substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 or shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 60 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) is unable within such period to correct or cure such defect, or to substitute the related Mortgage Loan with a Replacement Mortgage Loan or to deliver such opinion, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall, subject to Section 2.03, within 90 days from the notification of the Trustee, purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) to deliver the Mortgage, assignment thereof to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof with evidence of recording thereon, because such documents have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan, if EMC delivers such documents promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to the custody or review of Mortgage Files held by the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. The Trustee shall have no liability for the failure of the Custodian to perform its obligations under the Custodial Agreement.
(c) In the event that a Mortgage Loan is purchased by EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) in accordance with subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above or Section 2.03, EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall remit the applicable Purchase Price to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Protected Account and shall provide written notice to the Trustee detailing the components of the Purchase Price, signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon deposit of the Purchase Price in the Protected Account and upon receipt of a Request for Release with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Custodian will release to EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, representation or warranty furnished to it by the related Seller, as are necessary to vest in the title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the deposit into the Protected Account was made. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of such repurchase. The obligation of EMC to cure, repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which a defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedies respecting such defect available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their behalf.
(d) EMC (on its own behalf as a Seller and on behalf of Master Funding) shall deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf, and Trustee agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with respect to any Replacement Mortgage Loan, which the Trustee or the Custodian will review as provided in subsections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b), provided, that the Closing Date referred to therein shall instead be the date of delivery of the Mortgage File with respect to each Replacement Mortgage Loan.
