Thereafter, Net REO Proceeds for such Property received in any month shall be applied to the payment of installments of principal and accrued interest on such Loan deemed to be due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Note and such amortization schedule. If such Net REO Proceeds exceed the then Unpaid REO Amortization, the excess shall be treated as a Curtailment received in respect of such Loan.
(iic) The Net REO Proceeds allocated to the payment of a related Servicing Fee shall be limited to an amount equal to the product of (x) the total amount of Net REO Proceeds allocable to interest multiplied by (y) the fraction, the numerator of which is the interest rate at which the Servicing Fee is determined and the denominator of which is the Loan Interest Rate borne by such Loan. In the event that REMIC I acquires any Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a Loan, such Property shall be disposed of by or on behalf of such REMIC prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year of its acquisition unless (i) the Servicer shall have requested provided to the Trustee and received the Certificate Insurer an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund) to the effect that the holding by such REMIC of such personal property Property subsequent to such period (and specifying the period beyond such period for which the Property may be held) will not cause any of the Trust REMICs to be subject to the tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Code Section 860F(a)(1), otherwise subject any of the Trust REMICs or the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a to tax on the Trust Fund under the REMIC Provisions or cause either REMIC I or REMIC II any of the Trust Fund REMICs to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or (ii) the Servicer or the Trustee (at the Servicer's expense) shall have applied for, at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the close of such third calendar year, an extension of such period in the manner contemplated by Code Section 856(e)(3), in which case the initial period shall be extended by the applicable extension period.

The foregoing is subject to the proviso that the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or to restore any damaged property unless it shall determine (i) that such foreclosure and/or restoration expenses will increase the Liquidation Proceeds to Certificateholders after reimbursement to itself for such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawal from the Custodial Account for P&I pursuant to Section 3.3). Any gain on foreclosure or other conversion of a Liquidated Loan shall be distributed to the Class R Certificateholder, but only to the extent that such gain is not necessary to make distributions to the Certificateholders of the other Classes of Certificates. The Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; providedPROVIDED, howeverHOWEVER, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof (as well as any Servicing Fees and other amounts due it, if any), to the extent, but only to the extent, that withdrawals from the Custodial Account for P&I with respect thereto are permitted under Section 3.3.

Consistent with the foregoing, for purposes of all calculations hereunder, so long as such Loan shall be considered to be an outstanding Loan, it shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged, such Mortgage Note and, for purposes of determining the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof, the related amortization schedule in effect at the time of any such acquisition of title remain in effect.
(e) The Servicer shall not acquire for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.7 unless either:
(i) such personal property is incident to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Servicer for the benefit of the Trust Fund; or
(ii) the Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund under the REMIC Provisions or cause either REMIC I or REMIC II of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.

(b) Prior to any such foreclosure, the Servicer may, at its option, repurchase any Loan which is 90 30 days or more delinquent and which delinquent; provided that such repurchase shall only be made if (i) the Servicer determines in good faith would otherwise become subject has a contractual right to foreclosure proceedings or any require the third party seller of such delinquent Loan as to which the Mortgagor tenders repurchase such Loan, (ii) such repurchase is made to facilitate a deed in lieu of foreclosure repurchase by such third party seller and (iii) such repurchase is made at a price equal to the outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan plus accrued interest at the applicable Pass-Through Rate to the next Due DatePurchase Price. Any such repurchase shall be deemed a Principal Prepayment for purposes of this Agreement and all amounts in respect thereof shall be deposited into the Custodial Account for P&I pursuant to Section 3.2(b).
(c) The Trust Fund shall not acquire any real property (or personal property incident to such real property) except in connection with a default or imminent default of a Loan. Based on a report prepared by an Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental audits that the Mortgaged Property for which foreclosure proceedings are contemplated is in compliance with applicable environmental laws, and there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous materials, wastes, or petroleum based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to acquire title to such Mortgaged Property and further to take such actions as would be necessary and appropriate to effect such compliance and/or respond to such circumstances, the Servicer will not conduct such foreclosure proceedings. If the Servicer otherwise becomes aware, under its customary servicing procedures, of an environmental hazard with respect to a Loan for which foreclosure proceedings are contemplated, the Servicer will not conduct such foreclosure proceedings unless it determines in good faith that the liability associated with the environmental hazard will be less than the Liquidation Proceeds to be realized from the sale of the related Mortgaged Property. In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any real property (or personal property incident to such real property) in connection with a default or imminent default of a Loan, such REO Property shall be disposed of by the Trust Fund within three years after its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Trustee shall have received from the Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not cause either REMIC I I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC II IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions at any time that any REMIC I Regular Interests or Certificates are outstanding, in which case such REO Property shall be disposed of as soon as possible by the Trust Fund but in no event shall be held longer than the maximum period of time during which the Trust Fund is then permitted to hold such REO Property and allow REMIC I I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC II IV to remain qualified as REMICs under the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each such 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 860G(a)(8) of the Code. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such 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 Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Servicer and the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. All proceeds from the renting of such REO Property shall, net of any costs or expenses of the Servicer in connection therewith, be deposited into the Custodial Account for P&I pursuant to Section 3.3(b)(ix3.3(b)(viii).
(d) In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee, or to its nominee on behalf of Certificateholders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and cancellation of the related Loan, such Loan shall (except for purposes of Section 9.1) be considered to be a Loan held in the Trust Fund until such time as the related REO Property shall be sold by the Trust Fund and shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses. Consistent with the foregoing, for purposes of all calculations hereunder, so long as such Loan shall be considered to be an outstanding Loan, it shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged, such Mortgage Note and, for purposes of determining the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof, the related amortization schedule in effect at the time of any such acquisition of title remain in effect.
(e) The Servicer shall not acquire for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.7 unless either:
(i) such personal property is incident to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Servicer for the benefit of the Trust Fund; or
(ii) the Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund under the REMIC Provisions or cause either REMIC I I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC II IV of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.
