Remittance Reports; Advances (a) On the second Business Day following each Determination Date but in no event later than the earlier of (i) such date which would allow the indenture trustee to submit a claim to the NIMS Insurer under the Indenture so as to allow a timely payment by the NIMS Insurer under the insurance policy related to the notes insured by the NIMS Insurer and (ii) the 20th day of each month (or if such 20th day is not a Business Day, the preceding Business Day), the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee by telecopy or electronic mail (or by such other means as the Servicer and the Trustee may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report in the form of Exhibit O hereto (or such form mutually agreed upon) with respect to the related Distribution Date. Not later than the 20th day of each month (or if such 20th day is not a Business Day, the preceding Business Day), the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in addition to the information provided on the Remittance Report, such other information reasonably available to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.03. The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Servicer.
(b) The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.04(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due during the related Due Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the Close of Business on the related Determination Date and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Due Period and as to which REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Due Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the REO Imputed Interest on such REO Property for the most recently ended calendar month, over the net income from such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date.
(c) On or before 1:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.04, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

The Trustee will provide notice to the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer by telecopy by the Close of Business on any Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date, as set forth in the related Remittance Report.
