REMIC The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and distinct structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. Any Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph shall have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.
REMIC I (a) On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to distribute to itself on behalf of the Trustee, as holder of the REMIC I Regular Interests, for the following purposes and in the following order of priority:
(i) from the portion of the Available Distribution Amount attributable to interest (other than Excess Interest) collected or advanced or deemed collected or advanced on or with respect to, and any Excess Liquidation Proceeds attributable to, each Mortgage Loan (including each REO Mortgage Loan), to pay any and all Distributable Interest with respect to the Corresponding REMIC I Regular Interest for such Distribution Date;
(ii) from the portion of the Available Distribution Amount attributable to principal collected or advanced or deemed collected or advanced on or with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including each REO Mortgage Loan), to pay such principal with respect to the Corresponding REMIC I Regular Interest, until the REMIC I Principal Amount thereof is reduced to zero; and
(iii) from any remaining amount of the Available Distribution Amount (other than Excess Interest) and any remaining Excess Liquidation Proceeds with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including each REO Mortgage Loan), to reimburse, first, any unreimbursed Collateral Support Deficits previously allocated to the Corresponding REMIC I Regular Interest, together with unpaid interest thereon at the related REMIC I Net Mortgage Rate (in each case from the date of allocation), and then, any unreimbursed Collateral Support Deficits allocated to any other REMIC I Regular Interest, together with unpaid interest thereon at the related REMIC I Net Mortgage Rate (in each case from the date of allocation).
(b) At such time as all Distributable Interest with respect to the REMIC I Regular Interests has been paid, the REMIC I Principal Amounts of all of the REMIC I Regular Interests have been reduced to zero, and all Collateral Support Deficits (including interest thereon) previously allocated thereto to the REMIC I Regular Interests have been reimbursed, the Certificate Administrator shall pay to the Holders of the Class R Certificates with respect to the REMIC I Residual Interest any amounts of the Available Distribution Amount (other than Excess Interest) remaining with respect to each Mortgage Loan or, to the extent of the Trust’s interest therein, the related REO Property.
(c) Any Prepayment Premium distributed with respect to any Class of REMIC III Regular Certificates or XX XXXXX III Regular Interest (and correspondingly, to the applicable Exchangeable Certificates) on any Distribution Date pursuant to Section 6.10, shall be deemed to have first been distributed from REMIC I to REMIC II in respect of the Corresponding REMIC I Regular Interest for the Mortgage Loan (including an REO Mortgage Loan) as to which such Prepayment Premium was received.
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 Regular Interests (a) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall cause the Available Distribution Amount, in the following order of priority, to be distributed by REMIC 1 to REMIC 2 on account of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests or withdrawn from the Certificate Account and distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-1 Interest), as the case may be:

(ii) to the extent of amounts remaining after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, payments of principal shall be allocated as follows: first, to REMIC 1 Regular Interests I-1-A through I-59-B starting with the lowest numerical denomination until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC 1 Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such payments of principal shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC 1 Regular Interests, and second to the extent of any Overcollateralization Release to REMIC 1 Regular Interest A-I until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is reduced to zero.
(iii) to the Holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interest P, (A) on each Distribution Date, 100% of the amount paid in respect of Prepayment Charges and (B) on the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause;
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall cause the Available Distribution Amount, in the following order of priority, to be distributed by REMIC 2 to REMIC 3 on account of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests or withdrawn from the Certificate Account and distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-2 Interest), as the case may be:

(A) the related Uncertificated Accrued Interest for such Distribution Date, plus
(B) any amounts in respect thereof remaining unpaid from the previous Distribution Dates. Amounts payable as Uncertificated Accrued Interest in respect of REMIC 2 Regular Interest ZZ shall be reduced when the REMIC 2 Overcollateralized Amount is less than the REMIC 2 Overcollateralization Target Amount, by the lesser of (x) the amount of such difference and (y) the Maximum Uncertificated Accrued Interest Deferral Amount, and such amount will be payable to the Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1M, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1W, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2A, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2B, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2C, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2D, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-2, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-3, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-4, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-5, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-6, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-7, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-8, REMIC 2 Regular Interest B in the same proportion as the Overcollateralization Deficiency Amount is allocated to the Corresponding Certificates and the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest ZZ shall be increased by such amount;
(ii) to the Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interest P, (A) on each Distribution Date, 100% of the amount paid in respect of Prepayment Charges on the Corresponding Certificate and (B) on the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause;
(iii) to the Holders of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests, in an amount equal to the remainder of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date after the distributions made pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, allocated as follows:

(B) 2.00% of such remainder, first, to the Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1M, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-1W, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2A, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2B, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2C, REMIC 2 Regular Interest A-2D, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-2, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-3, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-4, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-5, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-6, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-7, REMIC 2 Regular Interest M-8, REMIC 2 Regular Interest B, 1% in the same proportion as principal payments are allocated to the Corresponding Certificates, until the Uncertificated Principal Balances of such REMIC 2 Regular Interests are reduced to zero, and second, to the Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interest ZZ, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such REMIC 2 Regular Interest is reduced to zero; provided, however, that 98% and 2% of any principal payments that are attributable to an Overcollateralization Release Amount shall be allocated to Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interest AA and REMIC 2 Regular Interest ZZ, respectively; and
