Any such amendment or supplement shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any Certificateholder if there is delivered to the Trustee written notification from each Rating Agency that rated the applicable Certificates to the effect that such amendment or supplement will not cause that Rating Agency to reduce the then current rating assigned to such Certificates, as well as an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment or supplement will not result in the loss by the Trust or the assets thereof of REMIC status. The Trust Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Trust Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (A) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (B) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates, or (C) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, unless each Holder of a Certificate affected by such amendment consents. For purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or an Affiliate shall be entitled to Voting Rights with respect to matters affecting such Certificates. Prior to consenting to any amendment, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel from the Depositor stating that the proposed amendment is authorized and permitted pursuant to this Trust Agreement. Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee shall notify Certificateholders of such amendment and, upon written request, furnish a copy of such amendment to any Certificateholder. It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
Amendment of Agreement This Agreement may be amended only by written agreement of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and only in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
Termination and Amendment of Agreement The Corporation and the Custodian mutually may agree from time to time in writing to amend, to add to, or to delete from any provision of this Agreement.

The Corporation may terminate this Agreement at any time by written notice thereof delivered, together with a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing such termination and certified by the Secretary of the Corporation, by registered mail to the Custodian. Upon such termination of this Agreement, assets of the Corporation held by the Custodian shall be delivered by the Custodian to a successor custodian, if one has been appointed by the Corporation, upon receipt by the Custodian of a copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation certified by the Secretary, showing appointment of the successor custodian, and provided that such successor custodian is a bank or trust company, organized under the laws of the United States or of any State of the United States, having not less than two million dollars aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits.

Delivery of assets on termination of this Agreement shall be effected in a reasonable, expeditious and orderly manner; and in order to accomplish an orderly transition from the Custodian to the successor custodian, the Custodian shall continue to act as such under this Agreement as to assets in its possession or control. Termination as to each security shall become effective upon delivery to the successor custodian, its agent, or to a transfer agent for a specific security for the account of the successor custodian, and such delivery shall constitute effective delivery by the Custodian to the successor under this Agreement. In addition to the means of termination herein before authorized, this Agreement may be terminated at any time by the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation and after written notice of such action to the Custodian.
