Contract for Services The parties intend this Agreement to be a contract for the provision of services and not a contract for the sale of goods. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA), the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, and any substantially similar legislation as may be enacted, shall not apply to this Agreement.
Contract for Servicing; Possession of Servicing Files The Seller, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, does hereby contract with the Servicer, subject to the terms of this Agreement, for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans. On or before the Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, the Seller shall cause to be delivered the Servicing Files with respect to the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Servicer. Each Servicing File delivered to a Servicer shall be held in trust by such Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Servicer shall have no liability for any Servicing Files (or portions thereof) not delivered by the Seller. The Servicer’s possession of any portion of the Mortgage Loan documents shall be at the will of the Trustee for the sole purpose of facilitating servicing of the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement, and such retention and possession by the Servicer shall be in a custodial capacity only. The ownership of each Mortgage Note, Mortgage, and the contents of the Servicing File shall be vested in the Trustee and the ownership of all records and documents with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or which come into the possession of the Servicer shall immediately vest in the Trustee and shall be retained and maintained, in trust, by the Servicer at the will of the Trustee in such custodial capacity only. The portion of each Servicing File retained by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement shall be segregated from the other books and records of the Servicer and shall be appropriately marked to clearly reflect the ownership of the related Mortgage Loan by the Trustee. The Servicer shall release from its custody the contents of any Servicing File retained by it only in accordance with this Agreement.
Resignation of Master Servicer Except as otherwise provided in Sections 9.27 and 9.29 hereof, the Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it unless it determines that the Master Servicer’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it and cannot be cured. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel that shall be Independent to such effect delivered to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer. No such resignation shall become effective until the Securities Administrator shall have assumed, or a successor master servicer acceptable to any NIMS Insurer and the Securities Administrator shall have been appointed by the Trustee and until such successor shall have assumed, the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. Notice of such resignation shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer and the Depositor to the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any NIMS Insurer.

Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator and the Depositor. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor) by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or the Owner Trustee shall otherwise become incapable of acting, then the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee (acceptable to the Depositor) by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the removed Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.3 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to the Depositor, the Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies.

Notice of any removal of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall be given to the Rating Agencies (through the successor 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, as applicable) and the Initial Purchasers by the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable. No removal of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall be effective until all reasonable fees, costs, expenses and Advances (including interest thereon) to which it is entitled have been paid to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, in full; provided that, if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is terminated by the Depositor pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, or if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is terminated with cause by the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the Voting Rights of all Certificates as provided above in this paragraph, then the terminated party shall be required to pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including those incurred by the other parties hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees of counsel)) to transfer the rights and obligations of the terminated party to a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable; and provided, further, that if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is terminated without cause by the Holders of Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Rights of all Certificates as provided above in this paragraph, then such Holders will be required to pay all the reasonable costs and expenses of the terminated party necessary to effect the transfer of the rights and obligations of the terminated party to a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable. Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall not become effective until acceptance of the appointment by the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, as provided in Section 8.8.
