The Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

EMC has entered into this Agreement in consideration for the purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and has agreed to take the actions specified herein. The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trustee for the use and benefit of the Certificateholders, without recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Trust Fund. In connection with such sale, the Depositor has delivered to, and deposited with, or caused to be delivered to and deposited with, the Trustee or the related Custodian, as its agent, the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned: (i) the original Mortgage Note, including any riders thereto, endorsed without recourse (A) in blank or to order of “Citibank, N.A., as Trustee for Certificateholders of SACO I Trust 2006-10, Mortgage-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-10,” or (B) in the case of a loan registered on the MERS system, in blank and showing an unbroken chain of endorsements from the original payee thereof to the Person endorsing it to the Trustee, (ii) the original Mortgage and, if the related Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, noting the presence of the MIN and language indicating that such Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, which shall have been recorded (or, for Mortgage Loans other than the EMC Flow Loans, if the original is not available, a copy), with evidence of such recording indicated thereon (or if clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in recordable form), (iii) unless the Mortgage Loan is either a MOM Loan or has been assigned in the name of MERS®, the assignment (either an original or a copy, which may be in the form of a blanket assignment if permitted in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located) to the Trustee of the Mortgage with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the name of “Citibank, N.A., as Trustee for Certificateholders of SACO I Trust 2006-10, Mortgage-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-10,” which shall have been recorded (or if clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in recordable form), (iv) an original or a copy of all intervening assignments of the Mortgage, if any, with evidence of recording thereon, (v) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Piggyback Loan), the original policy of title insurance or mortgagee’s certificate of title insurance or commitment or binder for title insurance or, in the event such original title policy has not been received from the title insurer, such title policy will be delivered within one year of the Closing Date or, in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a photocopy of such title policy or, in lieu thereof, a current lien search on the related Mortgaged Property; and with respect to any Piggyback Loan, the original policy of title insurance or mortgagee’s certificate of title insurance or commitment or binder for title insurance issued as to the related first lien Mortgage Loan or, in lieu thereof, a lien search on the related Mortgaged Property that was conducted in connection with the related first lien Mortgage Loan and (vi) originals or copies of all available assumption, modification or substitution agreements, if any; provided, however, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Seller may deliver the following documents, under the circumstances set forth below: (x) in lieu of the original Mortgage (other than the Mortgages related to the EMC Flow Loans), assignment thereof to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof have been delivered or are being delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned in time to permit their delivery as specified above, the Depositor may deliver, or cause to be delivered, a true copy thereof with a certification by such Seller or the title company issuing the commitment for title insurance, on the face of such copy, substantially as follows: “Certified to be a true and correct copy of the original, which has been transmitted for recording”; (y) in lieu of the original Mortgage (other than the Mortgages related to the EMC Flow Loans), assignment to the Trustee or in blank or intervening assignments thereof, if the applicable jurisdiction retains the originals of such documents (as evidenced by a certification from the Depositor to such effect) the Depositor may deliver, or cause to be delivered, photocopies of such documents containing an original certification by the judicial or other governmental authority of the jurisdiction where such documents were recorded; and (z) in lieu of the Mortgage Notes relating to the Mortgage Loans identified in the list set forth in Exhibit I, the Depositor may deliver, or cause to be delivered, a lost note affidavit and indemnity and a copy of the original note, if available; and provided, further, however, that in the case of Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents, may deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee and the related Custodian a certification of a Servicing Officer to such effect and in such case shall deposit all amounts paid in respect of such Mortgage Loans, in the Master Servicer Collection Account or in the Distribution Account on the Closing Date. In the case of the documents referred to in clause (x) above, the Depositor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, such documents to the Trustee or the related Custodian promptly after they are received. EMC shall cause, at its expense, the Mortgage and intervening assignments, if any, and to the extent required in accordance with the foregoing, the assignment of the Mortgage to the Trustee to be submitted for recording promptly after the Closing Date; provided that EMC need not cause to be recorded (a) any assignment in any jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee delivered by EMC to the Trustee, the Custodians and each Rating Agency, the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan or (b) if MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as the mortgagee of record solely as nominee for the related Seller and its successors and assigns. In the event that either Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator gives written notice to the Trustee that a court has recharacterized the sale of the Mortgage Loans as a financing, EMC shall submit or cause to be submitted for recording as specified above each such previously unrecorded assignment to be submitted for recording as specified above at the expense of the Trust. In the event a Mortgage File is released to the Company or the Servicer as a result of such Person having completed a Request for Release, the related Custodian shall, if not so completed, complete the assignment of the related Mortgage in the manner specified in clause (iii) above. In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, EMC further agrees that it will cause, at EMC’s own expense, within 30 days after the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by EMC to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. EMC further agrees that it will not, and will not permit the Company or the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trustee or the related Custodian on its behalf are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Seller or the Depositor, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. Any such original document delivered to or held by the Depositor, shall be delivered promptly to the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf. Whenever it is provided for in this Agreement that any document, evidence or information relating to a Mortgage Loan to be included in a Mortgage File be delivered or supplied to the Trustee, such delivery or supply shall be made to the appropriate Custodian pursuant to the related Custodial Agreement.

Funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts shall be invested in Eligible Investments (or other investments permitted by the Rating Agencies) that will mature so that such funds will be available at the close of business on the Transfer Date preceding the following Payment Date; provided, however, that funds on deposit in Trust Accounts may be invested in Eligible Investments of the entity serving as Indenture Trustee payable on demand or that mature so that such funds will be available on the Payment Date.

(d) All Trust Accounts will initially be established at the Indenture Trustee.
Conveyance of Trust Property (a) In consideration of the Trust’s delivery to, or upon the written order of, the Depositor of authenticated Notes, in authorized denominations in aggregate principal amounts equal to the Initial Note Balance, and authenticated Certificates, the Depositor hereby irrevocably sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trust, without recourse (subject to the obligations herein), all right, title and interest of the Depositor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the following:
(i) the Receivables;

(b) The Depositor and the Trust intend that the transfer of the Trust Property contemplated by Section 2.1(a) constitute a sale of the Trust Property, conveying good title to the Trust Property, from the Depositor to the Trust. If such transfer is deemed to be a pledge to secure the payment of the Notes, however, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trust a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Trust Property, and all proceeds thereof, to secure the payment of the Notes, and in such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
(c) The sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Trust Property made under Section 2.1(a) shall not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Trust of any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller to the Obligors or any other Person in connection with the Receivables and the other Trust Property or any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller under any agreement, document or instrument related thereto.

The amount or amounts to be deposited in the Trust pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall be determined by the Independent Counsel. The terms of the Trust shall provide that (i) the Trust shall not be revoked or the principal thereof invaded without the written consent of the Indemnitee, (ii) the Trustee shall advance, within ten business days of a request by the Indemnitee, any and all Expenses to the Indemnitee (and the Indemnitee hereby agrees to reimburse the Trust under the same circumstances for which the Indemnitee would be required to reimburse the Company under Section 2(c) of this Agreement), (iii) the Trust shall continue to be funded by the Company in accordance with the funding obligation set forth above, (iv) the Trustee shall promptly pay to the Indemnitee all amounts for which the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and (v) all unexpended funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a final determination by the Independent Counsel or a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, that the Indemnitee has been fully indemnified under the terms of this Agreement.

Purchase of Trust Student Loans; Reimbursement A. The Servicer, the Administrator, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall give notice to the other parties promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the provisions of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 which has a material adverse effect on the interest of the Issuer. In the event of such a material breach which is not curable by reinstatement of the Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, the Servicer shall purchase the affected Trust Student Loan not later than 120 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan. In the event of a material breach with respect to such Trust Student Loan which is curable by reinstatement of the Guarantor’s guarantee of such Trust Student Loan, unless the material breach shall have been cured within 360 days following the earlier of the date of discovery of such material breach and the date of receipt of the Guarantor reject transmittal form with respect to such Trust Student Loan, the Servicer shall purchase such Trust Student Loan not later than the sixtieth day following the end of such 360-day period. The purchase price hereunder will be the unpaid principal amount of such Trust Student Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest (calculated using the applicable percentage that would have been insured pursuant to Section 428(b)(1)(G) of the Higher Education Act) plus an amount equal to all net forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to such Trust Student Loan (to the extent not already included in the purchase price). In consideration of the purchase of any such Trust Student Loan pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Servicer shall remit the purchase price to the Administrator in the manner and at the time specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement. Any breach that relates to compliance with the requirements of the Higher Education Act or of the applicable Guarantor but that does not affect such Guarantor’s obligation to guarantee payments of a Trust Student Loan will not be considered to have a material adverse effect for purposes of this Section 3.5A.
B. In addition, if any breach of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 by the Servicer does not trigger such purchase obligation but does result in the refusal by a Guarantor to guarantee all or a portion of the accrued interest (or any obligation of the Issuer to repay such interest to a Guarantor), or the loss (including any obligation of the Issuer to repay to the Department) of Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments, with respect to any Trust Student Loan affected by such breach, then the Servicer shall reimburse the Issuer in an amount equal to the sum of all such nonguaranteed interest amounts that would have been owed to the Issuer by the Guarantor but for such breach by the Servicer and such forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments by netting such sum against the Servicing Fee payable to the Servicer for such period and remitting any additional amounts owed in the manner specified in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement not later than (i) the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 30 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments, or (ii) in the case where the Servicer reasonably believes such amounts are likely to be collected, not later than the last day of the next Collection Period ending not less than 360 days from the date of the Guarantor’s refusal to guarantee all or a portion of accrued interest or loss of Interest Subsidy Payments or Special Allowance Payments. At the time such payment is made, the Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Issuer for interest that is then capitalized, however, such amounts shall be reimbursed if the borrower subsequently defaults and such capitalized interest is not paid by the Guarantor.
C. Anything in this Section 3.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, if as of the last Business Day of any month the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Trust Student Loans with respect to which claims have been filed with and rejected by a Guarantor or with respect to which the Servicer determines that claims cannot be filed pursuant to the Higher Education Act as a result of a breach by the Servicer or the Depositor, exceeds 1% of the Pool Balance, the Servicer or the Seller, as appropriate, shall purchase, within 30 days of a written request of the Indenture Trustee, such affected Trust Student Loans in an aggregate principal amount such that after such purchase the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such affected Trust Student Loans is less than 1% of the Pool Balance. The Trust Student Loans to be purchased by the Servicer or the Depositor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be based on the date of claim rejection (or date of notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 3.5) with the Trust Student Loans with the earliest such date to be purchased first.
D. In lieu of purchasing Trust Student Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Servicer may, at its option, with the prior consent of the Administrator, arrange for the substitution of Student Loans which are substantially similar as of the date of substitution on an aggregate basis to the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted with respect to the following characteristics:
(1) status (i.e., in-school, grace, deferment, forbearance or repayment);
(2) program type (i.e., unsubsidized or subsidized Sxxxxxxx Loans (pre-1993 v. post-1993), PLUS Loans or SLS Loans);
(3) guarantee percentage;
(4) school type;
(5) total return;
(6) principal balance; and
(7) remaining term to maturity. In addition, each substituted Student Loan shall comply, as of the date of substitution, with the representations and warranties made by the Depositor in the Sale Agreement. In choosing Student Loans to be substituted pursuant to this subsection D, the Servicer shall make a reasonable determination that the Student Loans to be substituted will not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders. In the event the Servicer elects to substitute Student Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 and the Administrator consents to such substitution, the Servicer will remit to the Administrator the amount of any shortfall between the Purchase Amount of the substituted Student Loans and the Purchase Amount of the Trust Student Loans for which they are being substituted. The Servicer shall also remit to the Administrator an amount equal to all nonguaranteed interest amounts that would have been owed to the Issuer by the Guarantor but for the breach of the Servicer and forfeited Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments with respect to the Trust Student Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.6 of the Administration Agreement.
E. The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Eligible Lender Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Trust Student Loans, to reimburse the Issuer as provided above or to substitute Student Loans pursuant to this Section.
F. The Eligible Lender Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase of any Trust Student Loan or the reimbursement for any interest penalty pursuant to this Section 3.5.
G. The Servicer shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 if it is rendered unable to perform such obligations, in whole or in part, by a force outside the control of the parties hereto (including acts of God, acts of war, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and other disasters). The Servicer shall diligently perform its duties under this Agreement as soon as practicable following the termination of such interruption of business.
H. The Servicer also will have an option, but not the obligation, to purchase any Trust Student Loan on any date; provided that the Servicer may not purchase Trust Student Loans if the aggregate outstanding principal balance thereof (at the time of purchase) exceeds 2.0% of the Initial Pool Balance as of the date of determination. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Administrator, the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee thereof in advance in writing, and the Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the purchase price, as calculated pursuant to Section 3.5.A hereof, for the Trust Student Loans so purchased.
