The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, each shall undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs. In case an Event of Default or other default by the Servicer or the Depositor hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee shall, at the direction of the majority of the Certificateholders or the NIMs Insurer, or may, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders or the NIMs Insurer under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel and subject to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee, the NIMs Insurer and the Certificateholders. Each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as the case may be, shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected and if the instrument is not corrected to the its satisfaction, the Securities Administrator will provide notice to the Certificateholders and the NIMs Insurer and take such further action as directed by the Certificateholders and the NIMs Insurer. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Securities Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own misconduct, its negligent failure to perform its obligations in compliance with this Agreement, or any liability that would be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance or bad faith; provided, however, that:
(i) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Events of Default that may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee, and at all times, the duties and obligations of the Securities Administrator shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable, individually or as Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement that it reasonably believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper authorities respecting any matters arising hereunder;
(ii) neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall, individually or as Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee unless the Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, was negligent or acted in bad faith or with willful misfeasance; and
(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as Trustee, with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the NIMs Insurer or the Holders in accordance with this Agreement relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Agreement.
Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of the Servicer The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Servicer hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the related rights of the Servicer hereunder; provided that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Trustee nor the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor be obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer hereunder or otherwise. Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee and Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.07. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Subservicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer's compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.
