Permitted Withdrawals and Transfers from the Master Servicer Collection Account (a) The Master Servicer will, from time to time on demand of a Servicer or the Securities Administrator, make or cause to be made such withdrawals or transfers from the Master Servicer Collection Account as the Master Servicer has designated for such transfer or withdrawal pursuant to this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer may clear and terminate the Master Servicer Collection Account pursuant to Section 10.01 and remove amounts from time to time deposited in error.
(b) On an ongoing basis, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Master Servicer Collection Account (i) any expenses recoverable by the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator or the Custodian pursuant to Sections 3.03, 7.04 and 9.05 and (ii) any amounts payable to the Master Servicer as set forth in Section 3.14.
(c) In addition, on or before each Distribution Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Distribution Account (or remit to the Trustee for deposit therein) any Monthly Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
(d) No later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on each Distribution Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer will transfer all Available Funds on deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account with respect to the related Distribution Date to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account.
Establishment of and Deposits to Custodial Account The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to the Mortgage Loans separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled "[Servicer] in trust for [Owner], owner of Fixed and Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans, and various Mortgagors" (provided, in the event that this Agreement is assigned to a third party, the Custodial Account(s) shall be reestablished in trust for such Assignee). The Custodial Account shall be established with a Qualified Depository acceptable to the Owner. Any funds deposited in the Custodial Account shall at all times be fully insured to the full extent permitted under applicable law. Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.05. The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit C hereto. A copy of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Owner and, upon request, to any subsequent owner of the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account within 48 hours of receipt, and retain therein, the following collections received by the Servicer and payments made by the Servicer after the related Closing Date, other than payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date, or received by the Servicer prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a period subsequent thereto:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans, including all Principal Prepayments;
(ii) any amounts received from the Originator in connection with the repurchase of any Mortgage Loan;
(iii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate;
(iv) all Liquidation Proceeds;
(v) all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 (other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration and repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Section 3.17) and Section 3.17;
(vi) all Condemnation Proceeds that are not applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor;
(vii) any amount required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.10, 4.03, 5.01 or 5.02;
(viii) with respect to each Principal Prepayment in full or in part, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the month of distribution. Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer's own funds, without reimbursement therefor up to a maximum amount per month of the Servicing Fee actually received for such month for the Mortgage Loans; and
(ix) any amounts received with respect to or related to any REO Property or REO Disposition Proceeds. The foregoing requirements for deposit into the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of (a) Servicing Fees which are payable solely from the interest portion of Monthly Payments, Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, or (b) Ancillary Income, need not be deposited by the Servicer into the Custodial Account. Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.05. Additionally, any other benefit derived from the Custodial Account associated with the receipt, disbursement and accumulation of principal, interest, taxes, hazard insurance, mortgage blanket insurance, etc. shall accrue to the Servicer.
Remittance of Payments and Collections (a) All payments by any Lender to the Agent shall be made not later than the time set forth elsewhere in this Agreement on the Business Day such payment is due; provided, however, that if such payment is due on demand by the Agent and such demand is made on the paying Lender after 1:30 p.m. on such Business Day, then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by the Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire transfer, promptly following the Agent’s receipt of funds for the account of such Lender and in the type of funds received by the Agent; provided, however, that if the Agent receives such funds at or prior to 12:00 noon, the Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 4:00 p.m. on such Business Day, but if the Agent receives such funds after 12:00 noon, the Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 4:00 p.m. on the next Business Day.
(b) With respect to the payment of any funds from the Agent to a Lender or from a Lender to the Agent, the party failing to make full payment when due pursuant to the terms hereof shall, on demand by the other party, pay such amount together with interest thereon at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate. In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to receive any credit for any interest paid by the Agent to any Lender, or by any Lender to the Agent, at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate as provided herein.
(c) If the Agent pays any amount to a Lender in the belief that a related payment has been or will be received by the Agent from a Loan Party and such related payment is not received by the Agent, then the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from each Lender that receives such amount. If the Agent determines at any time that any amount received by it under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents must be returned to a Loan Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any Requirement of Law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender.
Establishment of and Deposits to Escrow Account The Company shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to a Mortgage Loan constituting Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled, "Countrywide Home Loans Inc., in trust for the Purchaser of Conventional Residential Mortgage Loans, and various Mortgagors". The Escrow Accounts shall be established with a Qualified Depository, in a manner which shall provide maximum available insurance thereunder. Funds deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Company in accordance with Section 4.07. The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a certification in the form of Exhibit E-1 hereto, in the case of an account established with the Company, or by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit E-2 hereto, in the case of an account held by a depository other than the Company. A copy of such certification shall be furnished to the Purchaser and, upon request, to any subsequent Purchaser. The Company shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts within two Business Days of receipt, and retain therein:
(i) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement; and
(ii) all amounts representing Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property. The Company shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 4.07. The Company shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution, other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor. To the extent required by law, the Company shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account may be non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.
Application of Payments and Collections All items of payment received by Agent by 12:00 noon, Chicago, Illinois, time, on any Business Day shall be deemed received on that Business Day. All items of payment received after 12:00 noon, Chicago, Illinois, time, on any Business Day shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments and collections at any time or times hereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of Borrower, and Borrower does hereby irrevocably agree that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and collections received at any time or times hereafter by Agent or its agent against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent may deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Agent or any Lender upon any of its books and records. Amounts received by the Agent shall be for further credit to the accounts of Lenders pursuant to the settlement procedures contained in subsection 3.1.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments and collections shall not be applied to Obligations consisting of Derivative Obligations or Product Obligations at any time that any other Obligations are then due and payable. If as the result of collections of Accounts as authorized by subsection 6.2.4 hereof or otherwise, a credit balance exists in the Loan Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrower, but shall be disbursed to Borrower or otherwise at Borrower's direction in the manner set forth in subsection 3.1.2, upon Borrower's request at any time, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists. Agent may at its option, offset such credit balance against any of the Obligations upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default.
Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to Custodial Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such waiver or extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not enforce any prepayment charge to the extent that such enforcement would violate any applicable law. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; provided, however, that no such extension shall be made if any such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer's determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action); provided, however, that the Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify any Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any modification that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or except in connection with prepayments to the extent that such reamortization is not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable; provided, further, that (1) no such modification shall reduce the interest rate on a Mortgage Loan below one-half of the Mortgage Rate as in effect on the Cut-off Date, but not less than the sum of the rates at which the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan accrues plus the rate at which the premium paid to the Certificate Insurer, if any, accrues, (2) the final maturity date for any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended beyond the Maturity Date, (3) the Stated Principal Balance of all Reportable Modified Mortgage Loans subject to Servicing Modifications (measured at the time of the Servicing Modification and after giving effect to any Servicing Modification) can be no more than five percent of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, unless such limit is increased from time to time with the consent of the Rating Agencies and the Certificate Insurer, if any. In addition, any amounts owing on a Mortgage Loan added to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan must be fully amortized over the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, and such amounts may be added to the outstanding principal balance of a Mortgage Loan only once during the life of such Mortgage Loan. Also, the addition of such amounts described in the preceding sentence shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide and may be implemented only by Subservicers that have been approved by the Master Servicer for such purpose. In connection with any Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may permit the Mortgage Loan to be reamortized such that the Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining Stated Principal Balance thereof by the original Maturity Date based on the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such re-amortization shall not be permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax purposes, except if such reissuance is described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(b)(3).
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date):
(i) All payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the principal component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(ii) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate on the Mortgage Loans, including Buydown Funds, if any, and the interest component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(iii) Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation Proceeds (net of any related expenses of the Subservicer);
(iv) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07 (including amounts received from Residential Funding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or expense that resulted from a breach of the Compliance With Laws Representation and all amounts required to be deposited in connection with the substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.04;
(v) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c) or 3.21;
(vi) All amounts transferred from the Certificate Account to the Custodial Account in accordance with Section 4.02(a);
(vii) Any amounts realized by the Subservicer and received by the Master Servicer in respect of any Additional Collateral; and
(viii) Any amounts received by the Master Servicer in respect of Pledged Assets. The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments on the Mortgage Loans which are not part of the Trust Fund (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date) and payments or collections in the nature of prepayment charges or late payment charges or assumption fees may but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account. In the event any amount not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account is so deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw such amount from the Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or more trust funds created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series and may contain other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to the Master Servicer or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others. Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Master Servicer shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Custodial Account that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans. With respect to Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received in any calendar month, the Master Servicer may elect to treat such amounts as included in the Available Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of receipt, but is not obligated to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such amounts will be deemed to have been received (and any related Realized Loss shall be deemed to have occurred) on the last day of the month prior to the receipt thereof.
(c) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the Custodial Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted Investments which shall mature not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next following the date of such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for Future Distribution) and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturities. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments attributable to the investment of amounts in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized without any right of reimbursement.
(d) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the Company of any change in the location of the Custodial Account and the location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof.
Targeted Deposits to the Accumulation Reserve Account The deposit targeted to be made to the Accumulation Reserve Subaccount for the Class A( - ) Notes for any Due Period during the Accumulation Reserve Funding Period will be an amount equal to the Targeted Accumulation Reserve Subaccount Deposit minus any amount on deposit in the Accumulation Reserve Subaccount for the Class A( - ) Notes.]
No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by the Company, the Mortgagor or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain any other similar provisions currently in effect which may constitute a "buydown" provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature;
Restrictions to Safeguard the Balance of Payments 1. The Parties shall endeavour to avoid the imposition of restrictions to safeguard the balance of payments.
2. The rights and obligations of the Parties in respect of such restrictions shall be governed by paragraphs 1 to 3 of Article XII of the GATS, which are hereby incorporated into and made part of this Chapter, mutatis mutandis.
3. A Party adopting or maintaining such restrictions shall promptly notify the Joint Committee.
Withdrawals from the Collection Account The Servicer shall, from time to time as provided herein, make withdrawals from the Collection Account of amounts on deposit therein pursuant to Section 3.02 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for the following purposes:
(i) to deposit in the Distribution Account, on the Business Day prior to each Payment Date, an amount equal to the Security Collections required to be distributed on such Payment Date;
(ii) to the extent deposited to the Collection Account, to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for previously unreimbursed expenses incurred in maintaining individual insurance policies pursuant to Section 3.04, or Liquidation Expenses, paid pursuant to Section 3.07 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement (to the extent not payable pursuant to Section 3.09), such withdrawal right being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans (other than any Repurchase Price in respect thereof) which represent late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made, or from related Liquidation Proceeds or the proceeds of the purchase of such Mortgage Loan;
(iii) to pay to itself out of each payment received on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as contemplated by Section 3.09, an amount equal to the related Servicing Fee (to the extent not retained pursuant to Section 3.02), and to pay to any Subservicer any Subservicing Fees not previously withheld by the Subservicer;
(iv) to the extent deposited in the Collection Account to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account and Payment Account that it is entitled to withdraw pursuant to Sections 3.02(b) and 5.01;
(v) to the extent deposited in the Collection Account, to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any Foreclosure Profits;
(vi) to pay to itself or the Seller, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased or otherwise transferred to the Seller, the Servicer or other entity, all amounts received thereon and not required to be distributed to Securityholders as of the date on which the related Purchase Price or Repurchase Price is determined;
(vii) to withdraw any other amount deposited in the Collection Account that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02;
(viii) to pay to the Seller the amount, if any, deposited in the Collection Account by the Indenture Trustee upon release thereof from the Funding Account representing payments for Additional Loans; and
(ix) after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to pay to the Seller, the Excluded Amount. Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv), (vi) and (vii), the Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to such clauses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself for any previously unreimbursed expenses incurred pursuant to Section 3.07 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement that the Servicer determines to be otherwise nonrecoverable (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Repurchase Price has been paid), by withdrawal from the Collection Account of amounts on deposit therein attributable to the Mortgage Loans on any Business Day prior to the Payment Date succeeding the date of such determination.
