Title, Conservation and Disposition of REO Property This Section shall apply only to REO Properties acquired for the account of the Trust Fund, and shall not apply to any REO Property relating to a Mortgage Loan which was purchased or repurchased from the Trust Fund pursuant to any provision hereof. In the event that title to any such REO Property is acquired, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall either sell any REO Property within two years after the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 86OG(a)(8) of the Code or, at the expense of the Trust Fund, request an extension of the two-year grace period, more than 60 days before the day on which the two-year grace period would otherwise expire, unless the Master Servicer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to two years after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on the Trust Fund of taxes on "prohibited transactions" thereof, as defined in Section 86OF of the Code, or cause the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC under federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The Master Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 86OG(a)(8) or result in the receipt by the Trust Fund of any "income from non- permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 86OF(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Master Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. The Master Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis in the Custodial Account all revenues received with respect to the REO Properties, net of any directly related expenses incurred or withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property. If as of the date of acquisition of title to any REO Property there remain outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to such REO Property or any outstanding Advances allocated thereto the Master Servicer, upon an REO Disposition, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and any unreimbursed related Advances as well as any unpaid Servicing Fees from proceeds received in connection with the REO Disposition, as further provided in Section 3.15. Subject to the first paragraph of this Section 3.22, the REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Master Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Master Servicer shall determine to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration). The Master Servicer shall deposit the proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any payment to the Master Servicer as provided above, in the Custodial Account upon receipt thereof for distribution in accordance with Section 4.01, including any such net proceeds which are in excess of the applicable Stated Principal Balance plus all unpaid REO Imputed Interest thereon through the date of the REO Disposition. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.22, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer has received notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer shall promptly request the Trustee and the Depositor to provide directions and instructions with respect to such Mortgage Loan and shall act in accordance with any such directions and instructions jointly provided by the Trustee and the Depositor. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section 3.22, with respect to any Mortgage Loan described by such sentence, the Master Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to the related Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, the related Mortgaged Property, unless (i) the Depositor and the Trustee jointly direct the Master Servicer to take such action and (ii) either (A) the Master Servicer has, at least 30 days prior to taking such action, obtained and delivered to the Depositor an environmental audit report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards or (B) the Depositor has directed the Master Servicer not to obtain an environmental audit report. If the Trustee and the Depositor have not jointly provided directions and instructions to the Master Servicer in connection with any such Mortgage Loan within 30 days of a request by the Master Servicer for such directions and instructions, then the Master Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund (other than proceeding against the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage. The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.22 shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as an expense of the Trust Fund, and the Master Servicer shall be reimbursed therefor from the Custodial Account as provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Custodial Account. If the Master Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property in compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Master Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund. The cost of any such compliance, containment, clean-up or remediation shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as an expense of the Trust Fund, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Custodial Account as provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Custodial Account.
