Acceptance of Mortgage Loans by Trustee. (a) The Trustee acknowledges the sale, transfer and assignment of the Trust Fund to it by the Depositor and its receipt thereof, subject to further review and the exceptions which may be noted pursuant to the procedures described below, and declares that it, or the Custodian on its behalf, holds the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01, and declares that it will continue to hold those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust Fund delivered to it as Trustee in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates. On or before the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan, within five Business Days after the receipt by the Trustee or Custodian thereof), the Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review or cause to be reviewed by the Custodian on its behalf (under the Custodial Agreement), each Mortgage File delivered to it and to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Depositor on the Closing Date an Initial Certification. In conducting such review, the Trustee or Custodian will certify as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(b)(I)(iii)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, provided that with respect to the documents described in Section 2.01(b)(I)(v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) and 2.01(b)(II)(viii) and (ix) to the extent the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf has actual knowledge that such documents exist, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and are not torn, mutilated, defaced or otherwise altered (except if initialed by the obligor) and appear to relate on their face to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule corresponding to the loan number for the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor's name, including the street address but excluding the zip code, the Mortgage Interest Rate and the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File and (iv) with respect to Mortgage Loans with a Mortgage Interest Rate subject to adjustment, the Gross Margin, the lifetime cap and the periodic cap for such Mortgage Loan. In performing any such review, the Trustee, or the Custodian, as its agent, may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf is under no duty or obligation 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 or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, or to determine whether any Person executing any documents is authorized to do so or whether any signature is genuine. If the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, 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, as its agent, shall promptly notify the Seller. In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall correct or cure any such defect within ninety (90) days from the date of notice from the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, of the defect and if the Seller fails to correct or cure the defect within such period, and such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Trustee, shall enforce the Seller's obligation pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, within 90 days from the Trustee's or the Custodian's notification, to purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price; provided that, if such 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; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original Security Instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan if the Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall be effected by the Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document. (b) No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, will review, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Mortgage Files delivered to it and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Depositor a Final Certification. In conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, will certify as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), that (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(b)(I)(v) and (ix)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, provided that with respect to the documents described in Section 2.01(b)(I)(v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) and 2.01(b)(II)(viii) and (ix) to the extent the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf has actual knowledge that such documents exist, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and are not torn, mutilated, defaced or otherwise altered (except if initialed by the obligor) and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule corresponding to the loan number for the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor's name, including the street address but excluding the zip code, the Mortgage Interest Rate and the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. In performing any such review, the Trustee, or the Custodian, as its agent, may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf is under no 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 or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, or to determine whether any Person executing any documents is authorized to do so or whether any signature is genuine. If the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, 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, as its agent, shall promptly notify the Seller. In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall correct or cure any such defect within 90 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if the Seller is unable to cure such defect within such period, and if such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall enforce the Seller's obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price, provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original Security Instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy, because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy, have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan, if the Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. (c) In the event that a Mortgage Loan is purchased by the Seller in accordance with Subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above, the Seller shall remit to the Master Servicer the Purchase Price for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account and the Seller shall provide to the Trustee written notification detailing the components of the Purchase Price. Upon deposit of the Purchase Price in the Master Servicer Collection Account, the Depositor shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Custodian and the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent (upon receipt of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto with respect to such Mortgage Loan), shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, furnished to it by the Seller as are necessary to vest in the Seller title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Purchase Price in available funds is received by the Trustee. The Depositor or Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule, to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies and the Master Servicer of such amendment. The obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Mortgage Loan as to which such a defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their behalf.

Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Purchase Price in available funds is received by the Trustee. The Depositor or Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule, to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies and the Master Servicer of such amendment.
