Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date hereof. The right of the Seller to purchase all the assets of the Trust Estate pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph are subject to Section 9.02 and conditioned upon the Pool Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Final Distribution Date being less than the amount set forth in Section 11.22. In the case of any purchase by the Seller pursuant to said clause (i), the Seller shall provide to the Trustee the certification required by Section 3.04 and the Trustee and the Custodian shall, promptly following payment of the purchase price, release to the Seller the Owner Mortgage Loan Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased. Notice of any termination, specifying the Final Distribution Date (which shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer (if it is exercising its right to purchase the assets of the Trust Estate) or by the Trustee (in any other case) by letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 15th day of the month preceding the month of such final distribution and not later than the twentieth day of the month of such final distribution specifying (A) the Final Distribution Date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein designated, (B) the amount of any such final payment and (C) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made (except in the case of any Class A Certificate surrendered on a prior Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01) only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. If the Master Servicer is obligated to give notice to Certificateholders as aforesaid, it shall give such notice to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is given by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Certificate Account on or before the Final Distribution Date in immediately available funds an amount equal to the purchase price for the assets of the Trust Estate computed as above provided.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the price paid pursuant to clause (i) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01, after reimbursement to the Servicers, the Master Servicer and the Trustee of any Periodic Advances, is insufficient to pay in full the amounts set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph, then any shortfall in the amount available for distribution to Certificateholders shall be allocated in reduction of the amounts otherwise distributable on the Final Distribution Date in the same manner as Realized Losses are allocated pursuant to Sections 4.02(b) and 4.02(g) hereof. Such distribution on the Final Distribution Date shall be in lieu of the distribution otherwise required to be made on such Distribution Date in respect of each Class of Certificates. In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for final payment and cancellation within three months following the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall on such date cause all funds, if any, in the Certificate Account not distributed in final distribution to Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the benefit of such Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer (if it exercised its right to purchase the assets of the Trust Estate) or the Trustee (in any other case) shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within three months after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds on deposit in such escrow account.
