Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements For so long as the Trust or any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, as applicable, shall (i) cause each Sub-Servicing Agreement (with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or sub-servicing agreement (with respect to any other Servicer) to which it is a party to entitle the Depositor to terminate such agreement (without compensation, termination fee or the consent of any other Person) at any time following any failure of the applicable Sub-Servicer or sub-servicer, as applicable, to deliver any Exchange Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer or sub-servicer, as applicable, is required to deliver under Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article X and (ii) promptly notify the Depositor following any failure of the applicable Sub-Servicer or sub-servicer, as applicable, to deliver any Exchange Act reporting items that such Sub-Servicer or sub-servicer, as applicable, is required to deliver under Regulation AB or as otherwise contemplated by this Article X. The Depositor is hereby authorized to exercise the rights described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence in its sole discretion. The rights of the Depositor to terminate a Sub-Servicing Agreement (with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or sub-servicing agreement (with respect to any other Servicer) as aforesaid shall not limit any right Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, may have to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement or sub-servicing agreement, as applicable.
Subservicing Agreement The written contract between the Master Servicer and any Subservicer relating to servicing and administration of certain Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 3.02, generally in the form of the servicer contract referred to or contained in the Program Guide or in such other form as has been approved by the Master Servicer and the Company. With respect to Additional Collateral Loans subserviced by MLCC, the Subservicing Agreement shall also include the Addendum and Assignment Agreement and the Pledged Asset Mortgage Servicing Agreement. With respect to any Pledged Asset Loan subserviced by GMAC Mortgage, LLC, the Addendum and Assignment Agreement, dated as of November 24, 1998, between the Master Servicer and GMAC Mortgage, LLC, as such agreement may be amended from time to time.
Termination and Substitution of Servicing Agreements Upon the occurrence of any event for which a Servicer may be terminated pursuant to its Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Seller and the Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying that an event has occurred which may justify termination of such Servicing Agreement, describing the circumstances surrounding such event and recommending what action should be taken by the Trustee with respect to such Servicer. If the Master Servicer recommends that such Servicing Agreement be terminated, the Master Servicer's certification must state that the breach is material and not merely technical in nature. Upon written direction of the Master Servicer, based upon such certification, the Trustee shall promptly terminate such Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (i) WFHM fails to make any advance, as a consequence of which the Trustee is obligated to make an advance pursuant to Section 3.03 and (ii) the Trustee provides WFHM written notice of the failure to make such advance and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 15 days after receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall terminate the WFHM Servicing Agreement without the recommendation of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of, or assessed against the Trustee in connection with termination of such Servicing Agreement at the direction of the Master Servicer. If the Trustee terminates such Servicing Agreement, the Trustee may enter into a substitute Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer or, at the Master Servicer's nomination, with another mortgage loan service company acceptable to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency under which the Master Servicer or such substitute servicer, as the case may be, shall assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all liabilities, duties, responsibilities and obligations that are to be, or otherwise were to have been, satisfied, performed and carried out by such Servicer under such terminated Servicing Agreement. Until such time as the Trustee enters into a substitute servicing agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans previously serviced by such Servicer, the Master Servicer shall assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all obligations which otherwise were to have been satisfied, performed and carried out by such Servicer under its terminated Servicing Agreement. However, in no event shall the Master Servicer be deemed to have assumed the obligations of a Servicer to advance payments of principal and interest on a delinquent Mortgage Loan in excess of the Master Servicer's independent Periodic Advance obligation under Section 3.03 of this Agreement. As compensation for the Master Servicer of any servicing obligations fulfilled or assumed by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to any servicing compensation to which a Servicer would have been entitled if the Servicing Agreement with such Servicer had not been terminated.
Sub-Servicing Agreements (a) Each of the applicable Master Servicer and the applicable Special Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder, provided that (A) in each case, the Sub-Servicing Agreement (as it may be amended or modified from time to time): (i) insofar as it affects the Trust, is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects; (ii) expressly or effectively provides that if the applicable Master Servicer or applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), any successor to the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder (including the Trustee if the Trustee has become such successor pursuant to Section 7.02) may thereupon either assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of the applicable Master Servicer or applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, under such agreement or, other than in the case of any Designated Sub-Servicing Agreement, terminate such rights and obligations without payment of any fee; (iii) prohibits the Sub-Servicer (other than a Designated Sub-Servicer) from modifying any Mortgage Loan or commencing any foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to any Mortgaged Property without the consent of the applicable Master Servicer and, further, prohibits the Sub-Servicer from taking any action that the applicable Master Servicer would be prohibited from taking hereunder; (iv) if it is entered into by the applicable Master Servicer, does not purport to delegate or effectively delegate to the related Sub-Servicer any of the rights or obligations of the applicable Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or otherwise; (v) provides that the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement related to a Serviced Loan Combination, also for the benefit of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder(s)), shall be a third party beneficiary under such agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of the applicable Master Servicer or applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trustee, any successor to the applicable Master Servicer or applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any Certificateholder (or, in the case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement related to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder(s)) shall have any duties under such agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom except as explicitly permitted by subsection (k) of this Section 3.22 or otherwise herein; (vi) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan without cause and without payment of any termination fee; (vii) does not permit the subject Sub-Servicer any rights of indemnification out of the Trust Fund except through the applicable Master Servicer or applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03; (viii) does not impose any liability or indemnification obligation whatsoever on the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect to anything contained therein; (ix) provides that, following receipt of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide a copy of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the related Sub-Servicer, and that such Sub-Servicer shall notify the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as applicable, in writing within five (5) Business Days after such Sub-Servicer discovers (without implying that the Sub-Servicer has a duty to make or attempt to make such discovery) a Document Defect or discovers (without implying that the Sub-Servicer has a duty to make or attempt to make such discovery) or receives notice of a Breach or receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, in each case with respect to a Mortgage Loan being sub-serviced by such Sub-Servicer; and (x) if the subject Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, provides that (y) the failure of such Sub-Servicer to comply with any of the requirements under Article XI of this Agreement applicable to such Sub-Servicer, including the failure to deliver any reports, certificates or disclosure information under the Exchange Act or under the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, at the time such report, certification or information is required under Article XI and (z) the failure of such Sub-Servicer (other than with respect to Prudential Asset Resources, Inc. as the Primary Servicer under the Primary Servicing Agreement) to comply with any requirements to deliver any items required by Items 1122 and 1123 of Regulation AB under any other pooling and servicing agreement relating to any other series of certificates for which the Depositor or an Affiliate is the depositor shall constitute an event of default or servicer termination event on the part of such Sub-Servicer upon the occurrence of which the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the Depositor shall be entitled to immediately terminate the related Sub-Servicer, which termination shall be deemed for cause; and (B) at the time the Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, the subject Sub-Servicer (other than a Designated Sub-Servicer in connection with a Sub-Servicing Agreement executed as of the Closing Date) is not a Prohibited Party unless (in the case of this clause (B)) the appointment of such Person as a Sub-Servicer has been expressly approved by the Depositor acting in its reasonable discretion.
Amendments to Servicing Agreements, Modification of Standard Provisions (a) Subject to the prior written consent of the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.07(b), the Master Servicer from time to time may, to the extent permitted by the applicable Servicing Agreement, make such modifications and amendments to such Servicing Agreement as the Master Servicer deems necessary or appropriate to confirm or carry out more fully the intent and purpose of such Servicing Agreement and the duties, responsibilities and obligations to be performed by the Servicer thereunder. Such modifications may only be made if they are consistent with the REMIC Provisions, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel. Prior to the issuance of any modification or amendment, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee such Opinion of Counsel and an Officer's Certificate setting forth (i) the provision that is to be modified or amended, (ii) the modification or amendment that the Master Servicer desires to issue and (iii) the reason or reasons for such proposed amendment or modification.
Amendments to Servicing Agreement The Issuer covenants with the Indenture Trustee that it will not enter into any amendment or supplement to the Servicing Agreement without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee.
Amendments of Sale and Servicing Agreement and Trust Agreement The Issuer shall not agree to any amendment to Section 9.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 11.01 of the Trust Agreement to eliminate the requirements thereunder that the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders consent to amendments thereto as provided therein.
Termination of Servicing Agreements; Successor Servicers (a) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of any Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, the Master Servicer shall either act as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a successor Servicer to be appointed as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement. The parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if the Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the predecessor servicer, including without limitation, any costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer or all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data, as may be required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.
Amendment of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement The Pooling and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended to provide that all references therein to the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and to “herein” shall be deemed from and after the Removal Date to be a dual reference to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as supplemented by this Reassignment. Except as expressly amended hereby, all of the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and except as expressly provided herein shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with or a consent to non-compliance with any term or provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Servicing Agreements Seller will service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and will perform its obligations in all material respects in accordance with the Servicing Agreements and Applicable Law. In particular, Seller shall comply with any advancing obligation under the Servicing Agreements. Without the express written consent of Purchaser (which consent may be withheld in its absolute discretion), Seller shall not (a) cancel, terminate or amend any Mortgage Servicing Rights, (b) expressly provide any required consent to any termination, amendment or modification of any Servicing Agreements either verbally or in writing, (c) expressly provide any required consent to any termination, amendment or modification of any other servicing agreements or enter into any other agreement or arrangement with the applicable Owner that may be reasonably material to Purchaser either verbally or in writing, (d) expressly or verbally waive any material default under or breach of any Servicing Agreement by the applicable Owner that may be material to the Purchaser (in Purchaser’s reasonable determination) or (e) take any other action in connection with any such Servicing Agreement that would impair in any material respect the value of the interests or rights of the Purchaser hereunder. 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.
