This indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator and the termination of this Agreement.
Acceptance of the Trust Fund by the Trustee Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on an exception report delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(iv)) above and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt, subject to the review described in the succeeding sentence, of the documents and other property referred to in Section 2.01 and declares that the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) holds and will hold such documents and other property, including property yet to be received in the Trust Fund, in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 90 days after execution and delivery of this Agreement, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans. If in the course of such review the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective or missing in any material respect, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Sponsor, the Servicer and, if such notice is from the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf, the Trustee. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originator or the Sponsor in the related Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. The Trustee may, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof or at any time thereafter, enter into a custodial agreement with the Custodian pursuant to which the Trustee appoints the Custodian to hold the Mortgage Files on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and all present and future Certificateholders, which may provide that the Custodian shall, on behalf of the Trustee, conduct the review of each Mortgage File required under the first paragraph of this Section 2.02. Initially, Citibank West, FSB is appointed as Custodian with respect to the Mortgage Files of all the Mortgage Loans and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood that such initial Custodian shall be responsible for the review contemplated in the second paragraph of this Section 2.02 and for all other functions relating to the receipt, review, reporting and certification provided for herein with respect to the Mortgage Files (other than ownership thereof for the benefit of the Certificateholders and related duties and obligations set forth herein).
Notice to the Trustee If the Company elects to redeem Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, it shall notify the Trustee of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. The Company shall so notify the Trustee at least 45 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) by delivering to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such redemption will comply with the provisions of this Indenture and of the Securities of such series. Any such notice may be canceled at any time prior to the mailing of such notice of such redemption to any Holder and shall thereupon be void and of no effect.
