On or before February 28 of each calendar year beginning in 2007, the Master Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee and the Depositor a report (an "Attestation Report") by a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the Assessment of Compliance made by the Master Servicer, as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB, which Attestation Report must be made in accordance with standards for attestation reports issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The Master Servicer shall cause any subservicer, and each subcontractor determined by the Master Servicer to be "participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor an assessment of compliance and accountants' attestation. If the Master Servicer cannot deliver the related Assessment of Compliance or Attestation Report by February 28th of such year, the Trustee, at its sole option, may permit a cure period for the Master Servicer to deliver such Assessment of Compliance or Attestation Report, but in no event later than March 10th of such year. The Trustee shall also provide an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report, as and when provided above, which shall at a minimum address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit N hereto which are indicated as applicable to the "trustee" or "securities administrator." In addition, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report, as and when provided above, which shall at a minimum address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit N hereto which are indicated as applicable to a "custodian."
