The Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall cause the Custodian to review each Mortgage File in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, on or before the Closing Date, and the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to certify in substantially the form attached to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit 1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on the Custodian's examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i), (ii), (x), (xi) and (xiv) of the definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) is under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, valid, legally binding, effective or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been recorded or are in recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01 or (iii) to determine the perfection or priority of any security interest in any such documents or instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in conducting the review described in this Section 2.02, the Trustee (or the Custodian, if applicable, shall not be responsible for determining (i) if an Assignment is sufficient under the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect of record the sale of the Mortgage or (ii) if a Mortgage creates a first or second lien on, or first or second priority security interest in, a Mortgaged Property. Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to deliver as required under the Custodial Agreement to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer a final certification in the form attached to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit 2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, and the Servicer shall forward a copy thereof to any Sub-Servicer. If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall so notify the Depositor and the Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by either the Responsible Party or the Seller in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. The Trustee shall, at the written request and expense of any Certificateholder, cause the Custodian to provide a written report to the Trustee for forwarding to such Certificateholder of all Mortgage Files released to the Servicer for servicing purposes. The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated is absolute and constitutes a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
