REMIC Election for REMIC II The Tax Matters Person shall, on behalf of REMIC II, elect to treat REMIC II as a REMIC within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code and, if necessary, under applicable state laws. Such election shall be included in the Form 1066 and any appropriate state return to be filed on behalf of REMIC II for its first taxable year. The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” of REMIC II within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The regular interests (as set forth in the table contained in the Preliminary Statement hereto) relating to REMIC II are hereby designated as “regular interests” in REMIC II for purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. The Class R-2 Residual Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of “residual interest” in REMIC II for purposes of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code. The REMIC II Regular Interests and the Class R-2 Residual Interest shall together be deemed to be a separate series of beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust consisting of the REMIC II Assets pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Statutory Trust Statute. The parties intend that the affairs of REMIC II shall constitute, and that the affairs of REMIC II shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a REMIC. In furtherance of such intention, the Tax Matters Person shall, on behalf of REMIC II: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, a federal tax return using a calendar year as the taxable year for REMIC II when and as required by the REMIC provisions and other applicable federal income tax laws; (b) make an election, on behalf of REMIC II, to be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return of REMIC II for its first taxable year, in accordance with the REMIC provisions; (c) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Certificateholders and the Holders of the Class R-2 Residual Interest all information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC provisions; (d) conduct the affairs of REMIC II at all times that any of the Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status of REMIC II as a REMIC under the REMIC provisions; (e) not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of REMIC II; and (f) pay the amount of any federal prohibited transaction penalty taxes imposed on REMIC II when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Company or any other appropriate person from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Company from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); provided, that the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified from REMIC II for any such prohibited transaction penalty taxes if the Company’s failure to exercise reasonable care was not the primary cause of the imposition of such prohibited transaction penalty taxes.
REMIC I On each Distribution Date, except as provided in subsection (b) below,
REMIC III As provided herein, the Tax Administrator will elect to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the REMIC II Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC III”. The Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F and Class G Certificates will evidence ownership of a class of “regular interests” in REMIC III and the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-C, Class X-D, Class X-E and Class X-Y Certificates will evidence ownership of seven (7), three (3), one (1), one (1), one (1) and one (1) classes of “regular interests” in REMIC III, respectively, all as described herein. The Class R Certificates will evidence ownership of (among other things) the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC III for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Latest Possible Maturity Date for each Class of Regular Certificates (other than the Interest Only Certificates) and the REMIC III Components is the date that is the Rated Final Distribution Date. Designations of the REMIC III Components The REMIC III Components of the Class X-A Certificates are hereby irrevocably assigned the alphanumeric designation under the column heading “REMIC III Component of Class X-A Certificates” in the table that appears under “Corresponding REMIC II Regular Interests”.

REMIC Designations and REMIC Distributions (a) The Trustee shall elect that each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV, REMIC V and REMIC VI shall be treated as a REMIC under Section 860D of the Code. Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity of such REMIC elections. The assets of REMIC I shall include the Mortgage Loans and all interest owing in respect of and principal due thereon, the Distribution Account, the Protected Account, any REO Property, any proceeds of the foregoing and any other assets subject to this Agreement (other than the Reserve Fund, any Prepayment Charge Waiver Amounts and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Supplemental Interest Trust, the Swap Agreement, the Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Derivative Account and any rights or obligations in respect of the Derivative Administration Agreement). The REMIC I Regular Interests shall constitute the assets of REMIC II. The REMIC II Regular Interests shall constitute the assets of REMIC III. The Class CE Interest shall constitute the assets of REMIC IV. The Class P Interest shall constitute the assets of REMIC V. The Class IO Interest shall constitute the assets of REMIC VI.
REMIC Election for REMIC I The Tax Matters Person, shall, on behalf of REMIC I, elect to treat REMIC I as a REMIC within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code and, if necessary, under applicable state laws. Such election shall be included in the Form 1066 and any appropriate state return to be filed on behalf of REMIC I for its first taxable year. The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” of REMIC I within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The regular interests (as set forth in the table contained in the Preliminary Statement hereto) relating to REMIC I are hereby designated as “regular interests” in REMIC I for purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. The Class R-1 Residual Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of “residual interest” in REMIC I for purposes of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code. The REMIC I Regular Interests and the Class R-1 Residual Interest shall together be deemed to be a separate series of beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust consisting of the REMIC I Assets pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Statutory Trust Statute. The parties intend that the affairs of REMIC I shall constitute, and that the affairs of REMIC I shall be conducted so as to qualify REMIC I as a REMIC. In furtherance of such intention, the Tax Matters Person shall, on behalf of REMIC I: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, a federal tax return using a calendar year as the taxable year and using an accrual method of accounting for REMIC I when and as required by the REMIC Provisions and other applicable federal income tax laws; (b) make an election, on behalf of the trust, for REMIC I to be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return of REMIC I for its first taxable year, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions; (c) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Holders of the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Class R-1 Residual Interest and the Trustee, all information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, and make available the information necessary for the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code; (d) conduct the affairs of REMIC I at all times that any REMIC I Regular Interests are outstanding so as to maintain the status of REMIC I as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (e) not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of REMIC I; and (f) pay the amount of any federal prohibited transaction penalty taxes imposed on REMIC I when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Company or any other appropriate person from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Company from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); provided, that the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified by REMIC I for any such prohibited transaction penalty taxes if the Company’s failure to exercise reasonable care was not the primary cause of the imposition of such prohibited transaction penalty taxes. The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Company with such information in the possession of the Trustee or the Master Servicer, respectively, as the Company may from time to time request for the purpose of enabling the Company to prepare tax returns. In the event that a Mortgage Loan is discovered to have a defect which, had such defect been discovered before the startup day, would have prevented such Mortgage Loan from being a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, and the Company does not repurchase such Mortgage Loan within 90 days of such date, the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall within 90 days of the date such defect is discovered sell such Mortgage Loan at such price as the Master Servicer in its sole discretion, determines to be the greatest price that will result in the purchase thereof within 90 days of such date, unless the Master Servicer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that continuing to hold such Mortgage Loan will not adversely affect the status of the electing portion of REMIC I as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes.

Distributions on the REMIC Interests On each Distribution Date, amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account shall be treated for federal income tax purposes as applied to distributions on the interests in the Lower Tier REMIC in an amount sufficient to make the distributions on the respective Certificates on such Distribution Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04.
