(1) one or more Whole Loan Transfers;
(2) one or more Pass-Through Transfers; provided, however, that no Mortgage Loan shall be reconstituted more than four (4) times. The Servicer and the Owner acknowledge and agree that the Servicer is not obligated hereunder to act as servicer in any Reconstitution that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 10.03 . The Owner is not obligated hereunder to offer the Servicer the opportunity to act as servicer in any Reconstitution; provided however that in the event the Owner does not offer such opportunity to the Servicer the Owner will pay to the Servicer an amount equal to the purchase price paid by the Servicer for the Servicing Rights with respect to each of the affected Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Owner in connection with any Whole Loan Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer contemplated by the Owner pursuant to this Section 10.03, provided, however, that under no circumstances and in no event shall such cooperation include any act of the Servicer or any event affecting the Servicer that would materially increase the Servicer’s liabilities or obligations beyond those liabilities and obligations contained in this Agreement (except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.03). In connection with any Reconstitution in which the Owner and the Servicer have agreed that the Servicer shall act as the servicer in the Reconstitution, the Owner shall deliver any agreement (the “Reconstitution Agreement”) or other document related to the Whole Loan Transfer or Pass Through Transfer to the Servicer at least 10 Business Days prior to such transfer; the Servicer’s refusal to cooperate with Owner based on late delivery of such documents shall result in no liability to the Servicer. Such Reconstitution Agreement may, in the Owner’s discretion, contain contractual provisions not set forth in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, (i) customary certificate payment delays, (ii) servicer advance requirements for the advancing of delinquent scheduled payments of principal and interest through liquidation (unless deemed non-recoverable), (iii) servicer obligations to pay compensating interest for prepayment interest shortfalls (to the extent of the monthly servicing fee payable to the servicer), (iv) representations and warranties (dated as of the Reconstitution Date) of the Servicer conforming in all material respects to the representations and warranties in this Agreement, and (v) such provisions with regard to servicing responsibilities, investor reporting, segregation and deposit of principal and interest payments, custody of the Mortgage Loans, and other provisions that conform to secondary market standards for mortgage-backed securities backed by mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans or as may be required by one or more Rating Agencies. The Servicer shall promptly review such Reconstitution Agreement and/or related documents, and provided that such Reconstitution Agreement contains servicing provisions substantially similar to those herein or otherwise acceptable to the Servicer in its sole discretion, shall execute such Reconstitution Agreement and/or related documents. The Servicer’s refusal to execute any Reconstitution Agreement or related documents may be based on any provision that materially (a) increases the liability of the Servicer and/or (b) affects Servicer’s profitability from that contemplated herein. The Owner hereby agrees to reimburse the Servicer for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer that relate to reviewing and commenting on the Reconstitution Agreement for such Whole Loan Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer. Any cooperation from the Servicer in connection with any Whole Loan Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer contemplated by this Section shall include, upon request by the Owner, delivery of a legal opinion relating to the Servicer substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit L and the furnishing of customary information for use in an offering document for such Pass-Through Transfer, for Pass-Through Transfers of this type, relating to the Servicer and its servicing practices and portfolio, which in form and substance is reasonably acceptable to the Servicer (the “Servicer Information”). The Servicer shall indemnify the Owner, each Affiliate of the Owner participating in any such Reconstitution and each Person who controls the Owner or such Affiliate, and their respective officers and directors, and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that each of them may sustain arising directly from Servicer Information; provided, however, that any numerical information regarding Servicer, including delinquency statistics, appearing in table format or otherwise, is confirmed by an independent accounting firm selected by Servicer at the Owner’s expense. The Owner shall indemnify the Servicer and each Person who controls the Servicer or such Affiliate and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that each of them may sustain in any way related to any Reconstitution other than any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that each of them may sustain as a result of the Servicer Information. If requested by the Owner in connection with any Reconstitution, the Servicer and the Owner shall execute a letter agreement setting forth the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 10.03. In the event that the Servicer is not the master servicer, servicer or sub-servicer with respect to a Reconstitution, any and all reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred by Servicer in connection with the foregoing shall be reimbursed by Owner after receipt of an invoice therefor. Any execution of a subservicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement by the Servicer shall be conditioned on the Servicer receiving servicing compensation that is reasonably acceptable to Servicer based on providing reasonably equivalent economic value to the total Servicing Compensation under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer is the master servicer, servicer or sub-servicer with respect to a Reconstitution, the Owner agrees that in such Reconstitution any servicing performance termination triggers shall be approved by the Servicer in its reasonable discretion; provided, that in the event that the Servicer does not approve any servicing performance termination triggers, the Owner shall, with respect to the Reconstitution, have the right to terminate the Servicer hereunder (a “Servicing Performance Trigger Termination”) and designate a successor servicer to act as master servicer, servicer or sub-servicer upon payment to the Servicer of the purchase price paid by the Servicer for the Servicing Rights with respect to each of the affected Mortgage Loans . All Mortgage Loans not sold or transferred pursuant to a Whole Loan Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer shall be subject to this Agreement and shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and with respect thereto this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
