Administrative Duties of the Servicer SECTION 10.1. ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES. (a)
Liability of the Servicers Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between a Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, such Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if such Servicer alone were servicing and administering such Mortgage Loans. Each Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer for indemnification of such Servicer by such Subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Designation of the Servicer The Trust hereby designates the Seller as the initial Servicer under this Agreement and by executing and delivering this Agreement, the Seller agrees to accept its designation as the Servicer until a Servicer Transfer, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, at no cost to the Trust. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer shall administer, service and collect the Pool Assets as agent for the Trust until the Final Termination Date and the Trust shall not terminate the Seller as Servicer except in accordance with Section 5.12. The Servicer may, in accordance with the terms of the Credit and Collection Policies, subcontract with any Person for the administration and collection of the Pool Receivables; provided however, that the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance of the duties and obligations so subcontracted and all other duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.
Subservicers The Master Servicer shall perform all of its servicing responsibilities hereunder or may cause a subservicer to perform any such servicing responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Master Servicer of a subservicer shall not release the Master Servicer from any of its obligations hereunder and the Master Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions of each subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall pay all fees of each subservicer from its own funds, and a subservicer’s fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee payable to the Master Servicer hereunder. At the cost and expense of the Master Servicer, without any right of reimbursement from its Protected Account, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and responsibilities of a subservicer and arrange for any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a successor subservicer; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit the Master Servicer, at the Master Servicer’s option, from electing to service the related Mortgage Loans itself. In the event that the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement are terminated pursuant to Section 8.01, the Master Servicer shall at its own cost and expense terminate the rights and responsibilities of each subservicer effective as of the date of termination of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall pay all fees, expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and responsibilities of each subservicer from the Master Servicer’s own funds without reimbursement from the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder and shall be obligated to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer by the subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. Any subservicing agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a subservicer shall be deemed to be between such subservicer and the Master Servicer alone, and the Trustee shall not have any obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such subservicer including any obligation, duty or liability of the Trustee to pay such subservicer’s fees and expenses. Each subservicing agreement shall provide that such agreement may be assumed or terminated without cause or penalty by the Trustee or other Successor Master Servicer in the event the Master Servicer is terminated in accordance with this Agreement. For purposes of remittances to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received a payment on a Mortgage Loan when a subservicer has received such payment.
