Seller shall conduct its business and perform its obligations under the Servicing Agreements in a manner such that the applicable Owner will not have cause to terminate any Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the prohibitions contained in this Section 8.11 apply to any amendments or modifications of the Servicing Agreements applicable to Current Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Loans owned by Seller which do not affect the Future Excess Servicing Spread with respect to such Current Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Loans and are not reasonably material to the Purchaser.
