Trustee and Securities Administrator Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature and countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the Seller, and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator makes any representation as to the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates (other than the signature and countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan except as expressly provided in Sections 2.02 and 2.05 hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee of the obligation to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 2.04. The Trustee's signature and countersignature (or countersignature of its agent) on the Certificates shall be solely in its capacity as Trustee and shall not constitute the Certificates an obligation of the Trustee in any other capacity. Neither the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Seller of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall not be responsible for the legality or validity of this Agreement or any document or instrument relating to this Agreement, the validity of the execution of this Agreement or of any supplement hereto or instrument of further assurance, or the validity, priority, perfection or sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued hereunder or intended to be issued hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall at any time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust Fund or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders, under this Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this Agreement other than any continuation statements filed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20.
Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; REO Property (a) The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall follow Customary Servicing Procedures and shall meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement with an unaffiliated Holder of 100% Percentage Interest of a Class of Class B Certificates or a holder of a class of securities representing interests in the Class B Certificates alone or together with other subordinated mortgage pass-through certificates. Such agreement shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K or subject to each Rating Agency's acknowledgment that the ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of such agreement. Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby such holder may instruct the Servicer to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash by the holder that would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted in accordance with its normal procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any Mortgaged Property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it through proceeds of the liquidation of the Mortgage Loan (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial Account). Any such expenditures shall constitute Servicing Advances for purposes of this Agreement. The decision of the Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Servicer that the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing such a proceeding. With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee's name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and the Trustee's capacity hereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. Incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, the Servicer may rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented, if any, showing the aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the management and maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions; provided, however, that the Servicer shall have no duty to rent any REO Property on behalf of the Trust. The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account no later than the close of business on each Determination Date. The Servicer shall perform, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the tax reporting and withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and, if required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such tax and information returns as may be required, in the form required. The Servicer shall deliver copies of such reports to the Trustee. If the Trust acquires any Mortgaged Property as described above or otherwise in connection with a default or a default which is reasonably foreseeable on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property prior to the end of the third calendar year following the year of its acquisition by the Trust (such period, the "REO Disposition Period") unless (A) the Trustee shall have been supplied by the Servicer with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to the REO Disposition Period will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" (as defined in Section 860F of the Code) on either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or cause either REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or (B) the Trustee (at the Servicer's expense) or the Servicer shall have applied for, prior to the expiration of the REO Disposition Period, an extension of the REO Disposition Period in the manner contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code. If such an Opinion of Counsel is provided or such an exemption is obtained, the Trust may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) for the applicable period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject either REMIC to the imposition of any federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes. The Servicer shall identify to the Trustee any Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan held by the Trust for 30 months for which no plans to dispose of such Mortgaged Property by the Servicer have been made. After delivery of such identification, the Servicer shall proceed to dispose of any such Mortgaged Property by holding a commercially reasonable auction for such property. The income earned from the management of any REO Properties, net of reimbursement to the Servicer for expenses incurred (including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and net of unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Periodic Advances and Servicing Advances, shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the related defaulted Mortgage Loans (solely for the purposes of allocating principal and interest, interest shall be treated as accruing as though such Mortgage Loans were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Servicer Custodial Account. To the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in excess of the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar month, such excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of principal of the related Mortgage Loan. The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer for any unreimbursed Periodic Advances and to reimburse the Servicer Custodial Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that were previously withdrawn by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage Loan; third, to accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent no Periodic Advance has been made for such amount or any such Periodic Advance has been reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such amounts are required to be distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any, from the liquidation of a Liquidated Mortgage Loan will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.17.
(b) The Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor of any Mortgage Loan which comes into default. The Depositor shall be entitled, at its option, to repurchase (i) any such defaulted Mortgage Loan from the Trust Estate if (a) in the Depositor's judgment, the default is not likely to be cured by the Mortgagor and (b) such Mortgage Loan is 180 days or more delinquent or (ii) any Mortgage Loan in the Trust Estate which pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement the Seller requests the Depositor to repurchase and to sell to the Seller to facilitate the exercise of the Seller's rights against the originator or prior holder of such Mortgage Loan. The purchase price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be 100% of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon at the Mortgage Interest Rate (less the Servicing Fee Rate for such Mortgage Loan) through the last day of the month in which such repurchase occurs. Upon the receipt of such purchase price, the Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the notification required by Section 3.15 and the Trustee or the Custodian shall promptly release to the Depositor the Mortgage File relating to the Mortgage Loan being repurchased.
Repurchase of Mortgage Loans with First Payment Defaults With respect to any Mortgage Loan, in the event that the first scheduled payment of principal and interest due either (i) after origination of such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) after the related Closing Date is not paid within sixty (60) days of the related Due Date, the Seller, at the Purchaser's option, shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Purchaser at the Repurchase Price. The Seller shall repurchase such delinquent Mortgage Loan within thirty (30) days of such request unless the Seller can provide evidence reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser in its good faith discretion that such delinquency was due to a servicing error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, elect to submit for the Seller's consideration a revised Purchase Price Percentage (as defined in the related Purchase Price and Terms Agreement) (in each case, a "Revised Pricing Offer") with respect to any such Mortgage Loan. Thereafter, the Seller shall accept or reject such Revised Pricing Offer. In the event the Seller rejects a Revised Pricing Offer, the applicable Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased pursuant to the previous paragraph. In the event the Seller accepts a Revised Pricing Offer with respect to any such Mortgage Loan (such loan, a "Repriced Mortgage Loan") the Seller shall refund to the Purchaser an amount equal to (i) the product of (x) the difference between the original related Purchase Price Percentage and (y) the applicable Revised Pricing Offer, and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of such Repriced Mortgage Loan as of the related Cut-off Date (such product, in each case, the "Repricing Adjustment"), plus accrued interest on such Repricing Adjustment calculated at the federal funds rate as of the related Closing Date. Such amount shall be paid by the Seller to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days thereof.
Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Transferor, as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account or the Distribution Account by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator.
Trust Administrator Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Master Servicer or a Servicer, as the case may be, and the Trust Administrator assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trust Administrator makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trust Administrator shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor, the Sellers, the Master Servicer or the Servicers of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer or any Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Depositor, the Sellers or the Master Servicer or the Servicers. The Trust Administrator shall not be responsible for the legality or validity of this Agreement or the validity, priority, perfection or sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued or intended to be issued hereunder. The Trust Administrator shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection for any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this Agreement.
Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts, consistent with the procedures that the Servicer would use in servicing loans for its own account and the requirements of the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 4.01. In determining the delinquency status of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer will use Delinquency Recognition Policies as described to and approved by the Depositor, and shall revise these policies as requested by the Depositor from time to time. The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Depositor, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan to the Depositor after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the Servicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 4.02. The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings or functions as advances; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor as provided in Section 4.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Trustee otherwise requests an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property, such an inspection or review is to be conducted by a qualified inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall promptly provide the Depositor and the Trustee with a written report of the environmental inspection.
Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans (a) With respect to any Mortgage Loan that is delinquent in payment by 90 days or more, the Master Servicer may, at its option, purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at the Purchase Price therefor; provided, that such Mortgage Loan that becomes 90 days or more delinquent during any given Calendar Quarter shall only be eligible for purchase pursuant to this Section during the period beginning on the first Business Day of the following Calendar Quarter, and ending at the close of business on the second-to-last Business Day of such following Calendar Quarter; and provided, further, that such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more delinquent at the time of repurchase. Such option if not exercised shall not thereafter be reinstated as to any Mortgage Loan, unless the delinquency is cured and the Mortgage Loan thereafter again becomes delinquent in payment by 90 days or more in a subsequent Calendar Quarter.
(b) If at any time the Master Servicer makes a payment to the Certificate Account covering the amount of the Purchase Price for such a Mortgage Loan as provided in clause (a) above, and the Master Servicer provides to the Trustee a certification signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the amount of such payment has been deposited in the Certificate Account, then the Trustee shall execute the assignment of such Mortgage Loan at the request of the Master Servicer, without recourse, to the Master Servicer, which shall succeed to all the Trustee's right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents relative thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security. The Master Servicer will thereupon own such Mortgage, and all such security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto. If, however, the Master Servicer shall have exercised its right to repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 4.07 upon the written request of and with funds provided by the Junior Certificateholder and thereupon transferred such Mortgage Loan to the Junior Certificateholder, the Master Servicer shall so notify the Trustee in writing.
Action by Certificateholders with Respect to Bankruptcy The Owner Trustee shall not have the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy relating to the Trust unless (i) the Notes have been paid in full and (ii) each Certificateholder approves of such commencement in writing in advance and delivers to the Owner Trustee a certificate certifying that such Person reasonably believes that the Trust is insolvent.
Termination Upon Purchase by the Master Servicer or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans (a) Except as otherwise set forth in this Article IX, including, without limitation, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make payments to Certificateholders as hereafter set forth, the Trust and the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee created hereby shall terminate in accordance with Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute upon (i) the purchase by the Master Servicer pursuant to the following paragraph of this Section 9.01(a) of all Mortgage Loans (other than Liquidated Mortgage Loans), all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and all other property included in the REMIC formed under this Agreement at a price equal, after the deduction of related advances, to the sum of (x) the excess of (A) 100% of the aggregate outstanding Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loans (other than Liquidated Mortgage Loans) plus accrued interest at the applicable Pass-Through Rate with respect to such Mortgage Loan (other than a Liquidated Mortgage Loan) through the last day of the month of such purchase, over (B) with respect to any Mortgage Loan which is not a Liquidated Mortgage Loan, the amount of the Bankruptcy Loss incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan as of the date of such purchase by the Master Servicer to the extent that the Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan has not been previously reduced by such Bankruptcy Loss, and (y) the appraised fair market value as of the effective date of the termination of the Trust of (A) all property in the Trust which secured a Mortgage Loan and which was acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure after the Cut-Off Date, including related Insurance Proceeds, and (B) all other property included in any REMIC formed under this Agreement, any such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or (ii) the later of the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure in respect of any Mortgage Loan, and the payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them hereunder; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the issue of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date hereof. On any Distribution Date after the first date on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than the Clean-Up Call Percentage of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase the outstanding Mortgage Loans (other than Liquidated Mortgage Loans), all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and all other property included in any REMIC formed under this Agreement at the price stated in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph; provided, that the Master Servicer may not so purchase the outstanding Mortgage Loans (other than Liquidated Mortgage Loans), all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and all other property included in any REMIC formed under this Agreement if the price stated in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph exceeds the fair market value, determined in accordance with prudent industry practices, of all outstanding Mortgage Loans (other than Liquidated Mortgage Loans), all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and all other property included in any REMIC formed under this Agreement. If such right is exercised, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee (and to the Company, if the Company is no longer acting as Master Servicer) the written certification of an officer of the Master Servicer (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts required to be paid in order to purchase the Mortgage Loans have been deposited in the Certificate Account) and the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall promptly execute all instruments as may be necessary to release and assign to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files and any foreclosed Mortgaged Property pertaining to the Trust. In no event shall the Master Servicer be required to expend any amounts other than those described in the first paragraph of this Section 9.01(a) in order to terminate the Trust or purchase the Mortgage Loans under this Section 9.01, and in no event shall the Company be required to expend any amounts in connection with such termination or purchase.
(b) Notice of any termination, specifying the date upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment and cancellation, shall be given promptly by letter from the Trustee to Certificateholders mailed not less than 30 days prior to such final distribution, specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office of the Certificate Registrar therein designated (the “Termination Date”), (ii) the amount of such final payment (the “Termination Payment”) and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to the Distribution Date upon which the Termination Date occurs is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Certificate Registrar therein specified. Upon any such notice, the Certificate Account shall terminate subject to the Master Servicer’s obligation to hold all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment. In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the Termination Date, the Master Servicer shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the Termination Payment with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Master Servicer may take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets which remain in trust hereunder. Upon the completion of winding up of the Trust, including the payment or the making reasonable provision for payment of all obligations of the Trust in accordance with Section 3808(e) of the Statutory Trust Statute, the Delaware Trustee shall prepare, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and any other trustee hereunder shall sign, and the Delaware Trustee (upon the Trustee’s consent acting at the direction of the Master Servicer) shall file, a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust Statute, at which time the Trust and this Agreement shall terminate. The Master Servicer shall act as the liquidator of the Trust and shall be responsible for taking all actions in connection with winding up the Trust, in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement (including this Section 9.01 and Section 9.02) and applicable law.
Servicing of the Mortgage Loans The Mortgage Loans have been sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on a servicing released basis. Subject to, and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein), the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, conveys and delivers to the Purchaser the Servicing Rights. The Purchaser shall retain the Interim Servicer as contract servicer of the Mortgage Loans for an interim period pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein). The Seller shall cause the Interim Servicer to execute the Interim Servicing Agreement on the initial Closing Date. Pursuant to the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein), the Interim Servicer shall begin servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Purchaser and shall be entitled to a Servicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loans until the applicable Transfer Date. The Interim Servicer shall conduct such servicing in accordance with the Interim Servicing Agreement. The Interim Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements with subservicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and for the performance of any and all other activities of the Interim Servicer as provided in the Interim Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Seller shall assign its obligation to service the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of the Purchaser to its interim subservicer, which, on the date of this Agreement, is either Option One Mortgage Corporation or Litton Loan Servicing, LP.
