Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to Custodial Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such waiver or extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not enforce any prepayment charge to the extent that such enforcement would violate any applicable law. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; provided, however, that no such extension shall be made if any such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer's determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action); provided, however, that the Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify any Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any modification that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or except in connection with prepayments to the extent that such reamortization is not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable; provided, further, that (1) no such modification shall reduce the interest rate on a Mortgage Loan below one-half of the Mortgage Rate as in effect on the Cut-off Date, but not less than the sum of the rates at which the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan accrues plus the rate at which the premium paid to the Certificate Insurer, if any, accrues, (2) the final maturity date for any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended beyond the Maturity Date, (3) the Stated Principal Balance of all Reportable Modified Mortgage Loans subject to Servicing Modifications (measured at the time of the Servicing Modification and after giving effect to any Servicing Modification) can be no more than five percent of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, unless such limit is increased from time to time with the consent of the Rating Agencies and the Certificate Insurer, if any. In addition, any amounts owing on a Mortgage Loan added to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan must be fully amortized over the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, and such amounts may be added to the outstanding principal balance of a Mortgage Loan only once during the life of such Mortgage Loan. Also, the addition of such amounts described in the preceding sentence shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide and may be implemented only by Subservicers that have been approved by the Master Servicer for such purpose. In connection with any Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may permit the Mortgage Loan to be reamortized such that the Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining Stated Principal Balance thereof by the original Maturity Date based on the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such re-amortization shall not be permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax purposes, except if such reissuance is described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(b)(3).
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date):
(i) All payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the principal component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(ii) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate on the Mortgage Loans, including Buydown Funds, if any, and the interest component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(iii) Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation Proceeds (net of any related expenses of the Subservicer);
(iv) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07 (including amounts received from Residential Funding pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or expense that resulted from a breach of the Compliance With Laws Representation and all amounts required to be deposited in connection with the substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.04;
(v) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c) or 3.21;
(vi) All amounts transferred from the Certificate Account to the Custodial Account in accordance with Section 4.02(a);
(vii) Any amounts realized by the Subservicer and received by the Master Servicer in respect of any Additional Collateral; and
(viii) Any amounts received by the Master Servicer in respect of Pledged Assets. The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments on the Mortgage Loans which are not part of the Trust Fund (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date) and payments or collections in the nature of prepayment charges or late payment charges or assumption fees may but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account. In the event any amount not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account is so deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw such amount from the Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or more trust funds created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series and may contain other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to the Master Servicer or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others. Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Master Servicer shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Custodial Account that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans. With respect to Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received in any calendar month, the Master Servicer may elect to treat such amounts as included in the Available Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of receipt, but is not obligated to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such amounts will be deemed to have been received (and any related Realized Loss shall be deemed to have occurred) on the last day of the month prior to the receipt thereof.
(c) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the Custodial Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted Investments which shall mature not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next following the date of such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for Future Distribution) and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturities. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments attributable to the investment of amounts in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized without any right of reimbursement.
(d) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the Company of any change in the location of the Custodial Account and the location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof.

In addition, not later than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date, the Servicer shall deposit into the Certificate Account any Monthly P&I Advances or other payments required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Agreement and any Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds (including amounts paid by the Company in respect of any Purchase Obligation) not previously deposited in the Custodial Accounts for P&I or the Investment Account, and any amounts paid by the Servicer in connection with the exercise of its option to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 or any other purchase of Mortgage Loans permitted by this Agreement.
(b) Funds held in the Certificate Account shall be invested at the written direction of the Servicer in (i) one or more Eligible Investments which shall in no event mature later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date (except if such Eligible Investments are obligations of the Trustee, such Eligible Investments may mature on the Distribution Date), or (ii) such other instruments as shall be required to maintain the Ratings. The Servicer shall be entitled to receive any gains earned on such Eligible Investments and shall bear any losses suffered in connection therewith. If the Trustee has not received such written investment directions from the Servicer, the Trustee shall not invest funds held in the Certificate Account. The Trustee shall have no liability for any losses on investments of funds held in the Certificate Account.

Subject to Section 3.16(e), all income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized without any right of reimbursement. The Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee's economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser (with respect to investments made through its Affiliates), administrator, shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments.
