Servicing of Loans The servicing, administering and collection of the Loans shall be conducted by the Servicer then authorized to act as such under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
Transfer of Servicing Each Seller agrees that it shall provide written notice to the Trustee and the Master Servicer thirty days prior to any transfer or assignment by such Seller of its rights under any Servicing Agreement or of the servicing thereunder or delegation of its rights or duties thereunder or any portion thereof to any Person other than the initial Servicer under such Servicing Agreement; provided, that (i) each Seller shall not be required to provide prior notice of any transfer of servicing that occurs within three months following the Closing Date to an entity that is a Servicer on the Closing Date or (ii) Xxxxxx Holdings shall be required to provide notice of any transfer of servicing rights by either of them to the other. In addition, the ability of each Seller to transfer or assign its rights and delegate its duties under any Servicing Agreement (other than a transfer of servicing rights between Xxxxxx Holdings and Xxxxxx Bank) or to transfer the servicing thereunder to a successor servicer shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i) Such successor servicer must be qualified to service loans for FNMA or FHLMC;
(ii) Such successor servicer must satisfy the seller/servicer eligibility standards in the applicable Servicing Agreement, exclusive of any experience in mortgage loan origination, and must be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld;
(iii) Such successor servicer must execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Master Servicer an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, that contains an assumption by such successor servicer of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the applicable Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement or, in the case of a transfer of servicing to a party that is already a Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, an agreement to add the related Mortgage Loans to the Servicing Agreement already in effect with such Servicer;
(iv) If the successor servicer is not a Servicer of Mortgage Loans at the time of transfer, there must be delivered to the Trustee a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates;
(v) The related Seller shall, at its cost and expense, take such steps, or cause the terminated Servicer to take such steps, as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and evidence the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans to such successor servicer, including, but not limited to, the following: (A) to the extent required by the terms of the Mortgage Loans and by applicable federal and state laws and regulations, the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to timely mail to each obligor under a Mortgage Loan any required notices or disclosures describing the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage Loans to the successor servicer; (B) prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to transmit to any related insurer notification of such transfer of servicing; (C) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to deliver to the successor servicer all Mortgage Loan Documents and any related records or materials; (D) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to transfer to the successor servicer, or, if such transfer occurs after a Remittance Date but before the next succeeding Deposit Date, to the Master Servicer, all funds held by the applicable Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans; (E) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the effective date of the transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue to forward to such successor servicer, within one Business Day of receipt, the amount of any payments or other recoveries received by the prior Servicer, and to notify the successor servicer of the source and proper application of each such payment or recovery; and (F) the related Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue to cooperate with the successor servicer to facilitate such transfer in such manner and to such extent as the successor servicer may reasonably request.
Effect of Servicing Transfer (a) After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the successor Servicer payments that are due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer.
(b) Except as provided in Section 8.2, after a transfer of servicing hereunder, the outgoing Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the administration, servicing, custody or collection of the Receivables and the successor Servicer shall have all of such obligations, except that the outgoing Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly to the successor Servicer for its own account, promptly on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts or items held by the outgoing Servicer (properly endorsed where required for the successor Servicer to collect any such items) received as payments upon or otherwise in connection with the Receivables.
(c) Any successor Servicer shall provide the Depositor with access to the Receivable Files and to the successor Servicer’s records (whether written or automated) with respect to the Receivable Files. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the successor Servicer. Nothing in this Section 8.3 shall affect the obligation of the successor Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 8.3.
(d) Any transfer of servicing hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related successor Servicer of any liability of the related outgoing Servicer arising out of any breach by such outgoing Servicer of such outgoing Servicer’s duties hereunder prior to such transfer of servicing.
No Transfer of Servicing With respect to the retention of the Company to service the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Company acknowledges that the Purchaser has acted in reliance upon the Company's independent status, the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plan, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section, the Company shall not either assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the Purchaser's sole discretion. Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 8.05, in the event that the Company either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof without (i) satisfying the requirements set forth herein or (ii) the prior written consent of the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Company (other than with respect to accrued but unpaid Servicing Fees and Servicing Advances remaining unpaid) or any third party.
Transfer of Loan (a) Lender may, at any time, (i) sell, transfer or assign the Documents and any servicing rights with respect thereto or (ii) grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement (collectively, the “Securities”). Lender may forward to any purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant, or investor in such Securities (collectively, “Investors”), to any Rating Agency (defined below) rating such Securities and to any prospective Investor, all documents and information which Lender now has or may later acquire relating to the Obligations, Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor(s), the Leases and the Property, whether furnished by Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor(s) or otherwise, as Lender determines advisable, provided that such parties shall be subject to any Confidentiality Agreement then in effect between Lender and Borrower or Guarantor with respect to this Loan, if any. Borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor agree to cooperate with Lender in connection with any transfer made or any Securities created pursuant to this Section including the delivery of an estoppel certificate in accordance with Section 3.16 and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender. Borrower shall also furnish consent of any borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor in order to permit Lender to furnish such Investors or such prospective Investors or such Rating Agency with any and all information concerning the Property, the Leases, the financial condition of Borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor, as may be reasonably requested by Lender, any Investor, any prospective Investor or any Rating Agency and which may be complied with without undue expense, provided that such parties shall be subject to any Confidentiality Agreement that is entered into by Lender with any such borrower, guarantor or indemnitor that is specific to this Loan. “Rating Agency” shall mean any one or more credit rating agencies approved by Lender.
Servicing of the Mortgage Loans The Mortgage Loans have been sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on a servicing released basis. Subject to, and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein), the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, conveys and delivers to the Purchaser the Servicing Rights. The Purchaser shall retain the Interim Servicer as contract servicer of the Mortgage Loans for an interim period pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein). The Seller shall cause the Interim Servicer to execute the Interim Servicing Agreement on the initial Closing Date. Pursuant to the Interim Servicing Agreement (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, for an interim period, as specified therein), the Interim Servicer shall begin servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Purchaser and shall be entitled to a Servicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loans until the applicable Transfer Date. The Interim Servicer shall conduct such servicing in accordance with the Interim Servicing Agreement. The Interim Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements with subservicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and for the performance of any and all other activities of the Interim Servicer as provided in the Interim Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Seller shall assign its obligation to service the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of the Purchaser to its interim subservicer, which, on the date of this Agreement, is either Option One Mortgage Corporation or Litton Loan Servicing, LP.

Transfer of the Mortgage Loans Possession of Mortgage Files. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans. The contents of each Mortgage File related to a Mortgage Loan not delivered to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date are and shall be held in trust by the Seller for the benefit of the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser and promptly transferred to the Trustee. Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Mortgage Note, the related Mortgage and the other contents of the related Mortgage File shall be vested in the Purchaser and the ownership of all records and documents with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or that come into the possession of the Seller on or after the Closing Date shall immediately vest in the Purchaser and shall be delivered promptly to the Purchaser or as otherwise directed by the Purchaser.
Servicing Transfer In the event that a successor Master Servicer is appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, from and after the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and not the former Master Servicer, shall (a) be responsible for the performance of all servicing functions to be performed from and after such date, (b) agree to be bound by the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein applicable to the Master Servicer and be subject to the duties and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder, and (c) agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Credit Enhancement Provider from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses whatsoever which the Credit Enhancement Provider may incur (or which may be claimed against the Credit Enhancement Provider) by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the successor Master Servicer in exercising its powers and carrying out its obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement. Such transfer of servicing shall not affect any rights or obligations of the former Master Servicer under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of the transfer of servicing, except that such former Master Servicer shall have no obligation to indemnify the Credit Enhancement Provider as a result of any act or failure to act of any successor Master Servicer in the performance of the servicing functions.
Servicing of the Mortgage Loan (a) Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to the specific terms of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b) Prior to the closing of a Lead Securitization, all servicing and other decisions regarding the Mortgage Loan shall be made: (i) with respect to matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto, by unanimous consent of the Holders and (ii) with respect to all other matters, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Servicing Agreement (provided that any conflict between the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement), by the Directing Holder. Each PSA shall contain terms and conditions that are customary for securitization transactions involving assets similar to the Mortgage Loan and that are otherwise (A) required by the Code relating to the tax elections of any Trust Fund, (B) required by law or changes in any law, rule or regulation or (C) requested by the Rating Agencies rating any Securitization.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents, effective upon the Lead Securitization, to the appointment of the Master Servicer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement by the Depositor and the appointment of the Special Servicer by the Directing Holder and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. Each Holder hereby appoints, effective upon the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of the Holders as set forth herein and in such Servicing Agreement).
(d) If, at any time the Lead Note is no longer in a Securitization, the Lead Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to a servicing agreement that is substantially similar to the Servicing Agreement (and, if any Non-Lead Note is in a Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Rating Agencies that were engaged by the Depositor to rate such Securitization shall be obtained) and all references herein to the “Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that until a replacement Servicing Agreement has been entered into (and such Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained), the Lead Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Servicing Agreement that was previously in effect for the Lead Note, as if such Servicing Agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, further, however, that until a replacement Servicing Agreement is in place, the actual servicing of the Mortgage Loan may be performed by any Qualified Servicer appointed by the Lead Note Holder and does not have to be performed by the service providers set forth under the Servicing Agreement that was previously in effect.
