In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (exclusive of the assets held in the Excess Reserve Fund Account, the Swap Agreement, the Cap Agreement, and the Supplemental Interest Trust (collectively, the “Excluded Trust Property”)) be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising nine real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative, the Lower Tier REMIC, the Middle Tier REMIC, the Upper Tier REMIC, the Class B-1 REMIC, the Class B-2 REMIC, the Class B-3 REMIC, the Class B-4 REMIC, the Class XX XXXXX, and the Class P REMIC”). Each Certificate, other than the Class CE, Class B, Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates, represents ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. In addition, each Class of Certificates (other than the Class CE, Class R, Class R-X, and Class P Certificates) represents the right to receive payments with respect to Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts. The Class CE Certificate represents ownership of a regular interest in the Class XX XXXXX and also represents ownership of the assets held from time to time in the Excess Reserve Fund Account and the Supplemental Interest Trust. Each of the Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, and Class P Certificates represents ownership of a regular interest in the Class B-1 REMIC, Class B-2 REMIC, Class B-3 REMIC, Class B-4 REMIC, and Class P REMIC, respectively. The Class R Certificate represents ownership of the sole class of residual interest in each of the Lower Tier, Middle Tier, and Upper Tier REMICs. The Class R-X Certificate represents ownership of the sole class of residual interest in each remaining REMIC.
The Class P REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class P interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The Class XX XXXXX shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class CE interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The Class B-1 REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class B-1 interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The Class B-2 REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class B-2 interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The Class B-3 REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class B-3 interest in the Upper Tier REMIC. The Class B-4 REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Class B-4 interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.
The Upper Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated Middle Tier Interests in the Middle Tier REMIC, other than the Class MT-R Interest, and each such Middle Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Middle Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Middle Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in the Lower Tier REMIC, other than the Class LT-R Interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Lower Tier REMIC. The Lower Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the property of the Trust Fund other than the interests in the Lower Tier REMIC and the Middle Tier REMIC, and the Excluded Trust Property. The startup day for each REMIC created hereby for purposes of the REMIC Provisions is the Closing Date. In addition, for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the latest possible maturity date for each regular interest in each REMIC created hereby is the Distribution Date in the thirty-sixth month following the month in which the Mortgage Loan having the latest maturity date matures.

(1)
The interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) for the Class LT-A Interest is a per annum rate equal to the Lower Tier REMIC WAC Cap.
(2)
The interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) for each of these Xxxx Tier Interests is a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) the REMIC Swap Rate for such Distribution Date, and (ii) the product of (a) the Lower Tier REMIC WAC Cap and (b) 2.
(3)
For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the interest rate for each of these Lower Tier Interests shall be the excess, if any, of (i) the product of (a) the Lower Tier REMIC WAC Cap and (b) 2, over (ii) the REMIC Swap Rate for such Distribution Date.
(4)
The Class LT-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in the Lower Tier REMIC. It does not have an interest rate or a principal balance.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall first pay or charge as an expense of the Lower Tier REMIC all expenses of the Trust for such Distribution Date other than any Net Trust Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment.
On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute the remaining Interest Remittance Amount (computed by ignoring any payments to the Supplemental Interest Trust) with respect to each of the Lower Tier Interests based on the above-described interest rates.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the Principal Remittance Amount (computed by ignoring any payments to the Supplemental Interest Trust) with respect to the Lower Tier REMIC Interests, first to the Class LT-A Interest until its principal balance is reduced to zero, and then sequentially, to the other Lower Tier Interests in ascending order of their numerical class designation, and, with respect to each pair of classes having the same numerical designation, in equal amounts to each such class, until the principal balance of each such class is reduced to zero. All losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the Lower Tier Interests in the same manner that principal distributions are allocated.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the Prepayment Charges to the Class LT-V58 Lower Tier Interest.
The Middle Tier REMIC
The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation, interest rate, and initial principal amount for each class of Middle Tier Interests.

The interest rate for each of these Middle Tier Interests (the “REMIC Maximum Rate”) with respect to any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) is a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the interest rates on the Lower Tier Interests, provided, however, that for any Distribution Date on which the Class MT-IO Interest is entitled to a portion of the interest accruals on a Lower Tier Interest having an “F” in its class designation, as described in footnote two, below, such weighted average shall be computed by first subjecting the rate on such Lower Tier Interest to a cap equal to the product of two and the interest rate used to compute the payment to the Swap Provider, adjusted to reflect the day count convention used for such interest rate (“Swap LIBOR”) for such Distribution Date.
(2)
The Class MT-IO is an interest only class that does not have a principal balance. For only those Distribution Dates listed in the first column in the table below, the Class MT-IO shall be entitled to interest accrued on the Lower Tier Interest listed in second column in the table below at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the interest rate for such Lower Tier Interest for such Distribution Date over (ii) Swap LIBOR for such Distribution Date.

The Class MT-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in the Middle Tier REMIC. It does not have an interest rate or a principal balance.
On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute interest on the Middle Tier Interests based on the above-described interest rates, provided, however, that interest that accrues on the Class MT-Q Interest shall be deferred in an amount equal to one-half of the increase, if any, in the overcollateralization amount for such Distribution Date. Any interest so deferred shall itself bear interest at the interest rate for the Class MT-Q Interest. An amount equal to the interest so deferred shall be distributed as additional principal on the other Lower Tier Interests having a principal balance in the manner described below.
On each Distribution Date principal shall be distributed, and Realized Losses shall be allocated, among the Middle Tier Interests in the following order of priority:
a.
First, to the Class MT-A-1, Class MT-A-2, Class MT-A-3, Class MT-A-4, Class MT-M-1, Class MT-M-2, Class MT-M-3, Class MT-M-4, Class MT-M-5, Class MT-M-6, Class MT-B-1, Class MT-B-2 Class MT-B-3, and Class MT-B-4 Interests until the principal balance of each such Lower Tier Interest equals one-half of the Class Principal Balance of the Corresponding Class of Certificates immediately after such Distribution Date; and
b.
Second, to the Class MT-Q Interests, any remaining amounts.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall be deemed to have distributed the Prepayment Charges passed through with respect to the Class LT-V58 Lower Tier Interests on such Distribution Date to the Class MT-Q Interest.

As to any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes an Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering to the Trustee, for such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01(b), together with an Officers’ Certificate providing that each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days thereafter, shall review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 and deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Servicer, with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of substitution, the Trustee shall deliver (or cause the custodian to deliver) to the Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan(s), with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan in the Collection Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Defective Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the Custodian. Upon such substitution, such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and all applicable representations and warranties thereof set forth in Section 2.04, in each case as of the date of substitution.
For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans, the Servicer will determine the amount (the “Substitution Adjustment Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Defective Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Mortgage Interest Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Seller will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and the Trustee, upon receipt by it or the Custodian of the related Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Defective Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(l) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(l) of the Code, or (b) any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. If such Opinion of Counsel can not be delivered, then such substitution may only be effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be given.
(e)
Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. In addition, upon discovery that a Mortgage Loan is defective in a manner that would cause it to be a “defective obligation” within the meaning of Treasury regulations relating to REMICs, the Seller shall cure the defect or make the required purchase or substitution no later than 90 days after the discovery of the defect. Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a), if made by the Seller. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.03 and preparation and delivery of the certifications in the form of Exhibit E and Exhibits F-1 and F-2 shall be performed by the Custodian pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Custodial Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Custodian shall be paid by the Servicer.

With respect to the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04 that are made to the best of the Seller’s knowledge or as to which the Seller has no knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders then, notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate at the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.

Within ninety days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such missing or materially defective documentation or any such breach of a representation or warranty, the Seller shall promptly deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects, or in the event such defect or breach cannot be cured, the Seller shall repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or cause the removal of such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute for it one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans, in either case, in accordance with Section 2.03.

The Servicer and the Subservicers may enter into and make amendments to the Subservicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Subservicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Trustee, without the consent of the Trustee. Any variation without the consent of the Trustee from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance or priority requirements of Subservicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Subservicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Subservicers to the Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor copies of all Subservicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.
(b)
As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the benefit of the Trustee, shall enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under the related Subservicing Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Subservicing Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Subservicing Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.
(c)
The Servicer shall cause any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer (or by any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.02 and with Sections 3.22, 3.23, 6.02 and 6.05 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subservicer were the Servicer, and to provide the information required with respect to such Subservicer under Section 8.12(f) of this Agreement. The Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining from each such Subservicer and delivering to applicable Persons any servicer compliance statement required to be delivered by such Subservicer under Section 3.22 and any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subservicer under Section 3.23, in each case as and when required to be delivered.
(d)
Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.02(e), the Servicer and any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. The Servicer shall promptly upon request provide to the Depositor a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by the Servicer or any such Subservicer (i) “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, and (ii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each Subcontractor identified pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph. As a condition to the utilization by the Servicer or any such Subservicer of any Subcontractor determined to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause any such Subcontractor used by the Servicer (or by any such Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Section 3.23 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were the Servicer. The Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining from each such Subcontractor and delivering to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 3.23, in each case as and when required to be delivered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Servicer engages a Subcontractor in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, the Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether any such affiliate or third-party vendor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of Regulation AB. If the Servicer determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets any of the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of Regulation AB, then such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Subservicer for purposes of this Agreement (and shall not be required to meet the requirements of a Subservicer set forth in Section 3.02(b)), the engagement of such Subservicer shall not be effective unless and until notice is given pursuant to Section 3.02(a) and the Servicer shall comply with Section 3.02(d) with respect thereto.
Section 3.03
Successor Subservicers. The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Subservicer pursuant to any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Subservicing Agreement; provided, however, that during the period when reports are required to be filed for the Trust under the Exchange Act, the termination, resignation or removal of a Subservicer shall be not be effective until 30 days after written notice is received by both the Depositor and the Trustee that contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee, pursuant to Section 8.12(g), to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act). In the event of termination of any Subservicer, all servicing obligations of such Subservicer shall be assumed simultaneously by the Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such Subservicer or the Servicer, and the Servicer either shall service directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.
Any Subservicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Depositor or the Trustee without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including termination due to an Event of Default).
Section 3.04
Liability of the Servicer. Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Section 3.05
No Contractual Relationship between Subservicers and the Trustee. Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee (or any successor Servicer) shall not be deemed a party thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.06. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Subservicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.
Section 3.06
Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by Trustee. In the event the Servicer at any time shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default), the Trustee, or its designee or the successor Servicer if the successor is not the Trustee, shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, with copies thereof provided to the Trustee or the successor Servicer if the successor is not the Trustee, prior to the Trustee or the successor Servicer if the successor is not the Trustee, assuming such rights and obligations, unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 3.03.
Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Servicer as a party to each Subservicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Subservicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Subservicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii) none of the Depositor, the Trustee, their designees or any successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer.
The Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, its designee or the successor Servicer deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing Agreements to the assuming party.
Section 3.07
Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments. (a) The 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 applicable Insurance Policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing and Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer may (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Scheduled Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided, that any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.01 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, subject to Section 4.01(d) pursuant to which the Servicer shall not be required to make any such advances that are Nonrecoverable P&I Advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may waive, in whole or in part, a Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) such Prepayment Charge is not permitted to be collected by applicable law or (iii) if sufficient information is not available to enable the Servicer to collect the Prepayment Charge. If a Prepayment Charge is waived other than as permitted by the prior sentence, then the Servicer is required to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates, by depositing such amount into the Collection Account from its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor, together with and at the time that the amount prepaid on the related Mortgage Loan is required to be deposited into the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not have an obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge if the failure to collect such amount is the direct result of inaccurate or incomplete information on the Mortgage Loan Schedule in effect at such time.
(a)
(i) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Excess Reserve Fund Account, on behalf of the Class CE Certificateholders, to receive any Basis Risk Payment and to secure their limited recourse obligation to pay to the Principal Certificateholders Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts (prior to using any amounts in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account with respect to the LIBOR Certificates).
(i)
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit the amount of any Basis Risk Payment for such date into the Excess Reserve Fund Account.
(b)
(i) On each Distribution Date on which there exists a Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount on any Class of Certificates, the Trustee shall (1) withdraw from the Distribution Account and deposit in the Excess Reserve Fund Account, as set forth in Section 4.02 (a)(iii)(V), the lesser of (x) the Class CE Distributable Amount (without regard to the reduction in the definition thereof with respect to the Basis Risk Payment or any Defaulted Swap Termination Payments (to the extent remaining after the distributions specified in Sections 4.02(a)(iii)(A)-(X) and (y) the aggregate Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts for such Distribution Date and (2) withdraw from the Excess Reserve Fund Account amounts necessary to pay to such Class or Classes of Certificates the Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount. Such payments shall be allocated to those Classes on a pro rata basis based upon the amount of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount owed to each such Class and shall be paid in the priority set forth in Sections 4.02(a)(iii)(W).
(i)
The Trustee shall account for the Excess Reserve Fund Account as an asset of a grantor trust under subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code and not as an asset of any REMIC created pursuant to this Agreement. The beneficial owners of the Excess Reserve Fund Account are the Class CE Certificateholders. For all federal tax purposes, amounts transferred by the Class XX xxxxx to the Excess Reserve Fund Account shall be treated as distributions by the Trustee to the Class CE (or, if applicable, to a partnership deemed joined by them) Certificateholders.
(ii)
Any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts paid by the Trustee to the Principal Certificateholders from the Excess Reserve Fund Account or the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall be accounted for by the Trustee as amounts paid first to the Class CE Certificates (in respect of the Class CE Regular Interest) and then to the respective Class or Classes of Principal Certificates. In addition, the Trustee shall account for the Principal Certificateholders’ rights to receive payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts as rights in a limited recourse interest rate cap contract written by the Class CE Certificateholders in favor of the Principal Certificateholders.
(iii)
Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required to make any payments from the Excess Reserve Fund Account except as expressly set forth in this Section 3.07(c) and Sections 4.02(a)(iii)(W), (Y) and (Z).
(c)
The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Distribution Account on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the following:
(i)
the aggregate amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.11;
(ii)
any amount deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments; and
(iii)
any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be deposited in the Distribution Account.
In the event that the Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee in writing to withdraw such amount from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering notice to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 4.02. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Servicer.
(d)
The Trustee may invest the funds in the Distribution Account in one or more Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.12. The Trustee may withdraw from the Distribution Account any income or gain earned from the investment of funds deposited therein for its own benefit.
(e)
The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Collection Account not later than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to any change thereof.
Section 3.08
Subservicing Accounts. In those cases where a Subservicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement, the Subservicer will be required to establish and maintain one or more segregated accounts (collectively, the “Subservicing Account”). The Subservicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall otherwise be acceptable to the Servicer. The Subservicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Subservicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Subservicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the Subservicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Subservicing Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account. The Subservicer shall thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the Subservicing Account. For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Subservicer receives such payments.
Section 3.09
Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow Accounts. (a) The Servicer shall ensure that each of the Mortgage Loans shall be covered by a paid-in-full, life-of-the-loan tax service contract with a provider mutually acceptable to the Depositor and Servicer (each, a “Tax Service Contract”). Each Tax Service Contract shall be assigned to the Trustee, or its designee, at the Servicer’s expense in the event that the Servicer is terminated as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loan.
(a)
To the extent that the services described in this paragraph (b) are not otherwise provided pursuant to the Tax Service Contracts described in paragraph (a) hereof, the Servicer undertakes to perform such functions. To the extent the related Mortgage provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more segregated accounts (the “Escrow Accounts”), which shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, all (i) collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Subservicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and (ii) all Condemnation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds to be applied to the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property or released to the related Mortgagor in accordance with applicable law and Accepted Servicing Practices, and the Servicer shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Escrow Accounts, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds in the clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from an Escrow Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Subservicer to the extent provided in the related Subservicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.13 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay itself any interest earned on the Escrow Account or, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account; (v) clear and terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement; (vi) transfer such funds to replacement Escrow Account that meets the requirements hereof or (vii) recover amounts deposited in error or (viii) to release Condemnation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds to be applied to the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property or to the related Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable law and Accepted Servicing Practices. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer or Subservicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Escrow Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure of a tax lien. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills within such time and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments, including any payment required to be made in connection with a Mortgage Loan that does provide for Escrow Payments and is insufficient to make such payments; provided, however, that such advances are deemed to be Servicing Advances.
Section 3.10
Collection Account. (a) On behalf of the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more segregated Eligible Accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trustee, the Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account on a daily basis as soon as proper cash application can be determined, generally within two Business Days of receipt, the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date), or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto:
(i)
all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii)
all payments on account of interest (net of the related Servicing Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;
(iii)
all Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds to the extent such Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds are not to be applied to the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property or released to the related Mortgagor in accordance with the express requirements of law or in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, Liquidation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries;
(iv)
any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account;
(v)
any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.13(a) in respect of any blanket policy deductibles;
(vi)
all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance with this Agreement;
(vii)
all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer; and
(viii)
all Subsequent Recoveries.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees, assumption fees and other similar fees and charges need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account and shall, upon collection, belong to the Servicer as additional compensation for its servicing activities. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer shall at its own expense be responsible for reviewing and reconciling the Collection Account in accordance with industry standards and shall act promptly to resolve any discrepancies related thereto.
(b)
Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the Depositor of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof.
Section 3.11
Withdrawals from the Collection Account. (a) The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in Section 4.01:
(i)
on or prior to each Remittance Date, to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account all Available Funds in respect of the related Distribution Date together with all amounts representing Prepayment Charges (payable to the Class P Certificateholders) from the Mortgage Loans received during the related Prepayment Period;
(ii)
to reimburse the Servicer for P&I Advances, but only to the extent of amounts received which represent payments of principal or interest (net of the related Servicing Fees) on the related Mortgage Loans with respect to which such P&I Advances were made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 or Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds or Unreimbursed Advances to the extent of funds held in the Collection Account for future distribution;
(iii)
to pay the Servicer or any Subservicer (A) any unpaid Servicing Fees or (B) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections or other amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or the related REO Property), and to reimburse the Servicer for Advances made at the time a Mortgage Loan was modified;
(iv)
to pay to the Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee) on each Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account and any additional servicing compensation set forth in Section 3.21;
(v)
to pay to the Seller, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been repurchased or replaced pursuant to this Agreement, all amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be;
(vi)
to reimburse the Servicer for any P&I Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which the Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01;
(vii)
to pay, or to reimburse the Servicer for Servicing Advances in respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.15;
(viii)
to reimburse the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03, Section 7.02 or Section 8.05;
(ix)
to reimburse the Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to the repurchase obligation of the Seller under this Agreement that were included in the Repurchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the repurchase obligation, to the extent not otherwise paid pursuant to the terms hereof;
(x)
to withdraw any amounts deposited in the Collection Account in error; and
(xi)
to clear and terminate the Collection Account upon termination of this Agreement.
(b)
The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant to subclauses (a)(ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix) above. The Servicer shall provide written notification (as set forth in Section 4.01(d)) to the Depositor, on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (a)(vi) above.
Section 3.12
Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, Escrow Accounts and the Distribution Account. (a) The Servicer may invest the funds in the Collection Account and the Escrow Accounts (to the extent permitted by law and the related Mortgage Loan documents) and the Trustee may invest funds in the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, each such Account is referred to as an “Investment Account”), in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that any such Permitted Investment managed by or advised by the Trustee or any of its Affiliates may mature, unless payable on demand, no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. The Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to sole possession over each such investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Servicer or the Trustee or its agent, as applicable, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Servicer or the Trustee or its agent, as applicable. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, may:
(x)
consistent with any notice required to be given there under, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable there under and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y)
demand payment of all amounts due there under that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in an Investment Account.
(a)
All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account or Escrow Account, as applicable, held by or on behalf of the Servicer, shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in the manner set forth in Section 3.11. The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account or Escrow Account, as applicable, the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.
(b)
All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account held by the Trustee, shall be for the benefit of the Trustee, and shall be subject to the Trustee’s withdrawal in the manner set forth in Section 3.07(e). The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account immediately upon realization of such loss.
(c)
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment of funds held in the Escrow Account or the Collection Account, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment of funds held in the Escrow Account or the Collection Account, the Servicer shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
Section 3.13
Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each first lien Mortgage Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis, (ii) the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the Mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer or (iii) the amount required under applicable HUD/FHA regulations. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Servicer shall also maintain on the REO Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders, (x) fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the replacement cost of the improvements which are a part of such property, (y) public liability insurance and, (z) to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies other than amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is required to be maintained by the Servicer or the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to such Applicable Regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer and shall provide for at least thirty days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in the amount of or material change in coverage to the Servicer. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either the Mortgagor’s insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies currently reflect a general policy rating of B:VI or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide and are licensed to do business in the state wherein the property subject to the policy is located.
(a)
Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy. In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy issued by an insurer that has a general policy rating of B:VI or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 3.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 3.13, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.13, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 3.13, and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause, which amount shall not be reimbursable to the Servicer from the Trust Fund. In connection with its activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of the Trust Fund, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
(b)
Fidelity Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance. The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond (the “Fidelity Bond”) and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with financially responsible companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such persons. Such Fidelity Bond shall also protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 3.13 requiring the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by Xxxxxx Xxx in the Xxxxxx Mae MBS Selling and Servicing Guide or by Xxxxxxx Mac in the Xxxxxxx Mac Servicer’s Guide. Each year, together with the Annual Statement as to Compliance delivered pursuant to Section 3.22, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee proof of coverage of the Fidelity Bond and Errors and omissions insurance policy and a statement from the surety and insurer that the surety and insurer shall endeavor to notify the Trustee within 30 days prior to such Fidelity Bond’s and errors and omissions insurance policy’s termination or material modification. In the absence of notice from the surety, insurer or Servicer of such termination or material modification, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to take any action to determine whether or not such Fidelity Bond or errors and omission policy has been terminated or materially modified.
Section 3.14
Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if, in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will make reasonable efforts to enter into either (i) an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) a substitution agreement as provided in the succeeding sentence. The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all respects to the requirements, representations and warranties of this Agreement. Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Scheduled Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the executed original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 3.14, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.
Section 3.15
Realization upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans. In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall take such action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders. With respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall have the right to review the status of the related forbearance plan and, subject to the second paragraph of Section 3.01, may modify such forbearance plan; including, extending the Mortgage Loan repayment date for a period of one year or reducing the Mortgage Interest Rate.
In connection with a foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it hereunder and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as prudent mortgage servicers would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of their own affairs and consistent with Applicable Regulations and the servicing standards set forth in the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide, including, without limitation, advancing funds for the payment of taxes and insurance premiums with respect to first lien Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.15, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall not either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the Trust Fund would be considered to hold title to, to be a mortgagee-in-possession of, or to be an owner or operator of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a prudent report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:
A.
such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and
B.
there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.
The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.15 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account.
If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders. The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account.
Section 3.16
Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit K hereto, which Request for Release may be in an electronic format. Upon receipt of such certification and Request for Release, the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, shall promptly release the related Custodial File to the Servicer or such other party identified on the Request for Release within two (2) Business Days. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account. Upon any such payment in full, or the receipt of such notification that such funds have been placed in escrow, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to execute an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of Mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property relating to such Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of payment in full, it being understood and agreed that no expense incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account. In lieu of executing any such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, the Servicer may prepare and submit to the Trustee a satisfaction (or assignment without recourse, if requested by the Person or Persons entitled thereto) in form for execution by the Trustee with all requisite information completed by the Servicer; in such event, the Trustee shall execute and acknowledge such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, and deliver the same with the related Mortgage File, as aforesaid.
(a)
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any Insurance Policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, shall, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, of a Request for Release, which Request for Release may be in an electronic format in a form acceptable to the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, release the related Custodial File to the Servicer, and the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, shall, at the direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings and the Servicer shall retain the Mortgage File in trust for the benefit of the Trustee. Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Custodial File to the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, to the Servicer or its designee.
Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer copies of any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity, or shall exercise and deliver to the Servicer a power of attorney sufficient to authorize the Servicer to execute such documents on its behalf. Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale.
Section 3.17
Title, Conservation and Disposition of REO Property. In the event that title to a Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken (pursuant to a limited power of attorney to be provided by the Trustee to the Servicer) in the name of the Trustee or a nominee thereof, on behalf of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee or a nominee thereof is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit of the Trustee. The Trustee’s name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and the Trustee’s capacity hereunder.
In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property before the end of the third calendar year beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or, at the expense of the Trust Fund, request from the Internal Revenue Service, more than 60 days before the day on which the above-mentioned grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of the above-mentioned grace period, unless the Servicer obtains an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Servicer and the Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to such period will not: (i) result in the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F of the Code; or (ii) cause any REMIC constituting any part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold such REO Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel). The Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Collection Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel, as provided in Section 3.05.
Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force, and notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the related REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be inspected at least annually thereafter. The Servicer shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the Mortgage Servicing File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Servicer to the Trustee upon request. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund.
With respect to each REO Property, the Servicer shall account separately for each REO Property with respect to all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of such REO Property.
The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis, within two Business Days of receipt, in the Collection Account, all revenues received with respect to each REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the related REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 3.13 hereof and the fees of any managing agent acting on behalf of the Servicer.
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee, on each Servicer Remittance Date, an operating statement for each REO Property covering the operation of each REO Property for the previous month. Such operating statement shall be accompanied by such other information as the Trustee shall reasonably request.
The Servicer shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO Property as promptly as is practically consistent with protecting the Certificateholders’ interests.
Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders. If as of the date title to any REO Property was acquired by the Servicer there were outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to the REO Property, the Servicer, upon an REO Disposition of such REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances from proceeds received in connection with such REO Disposition. The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any payment to the Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the Collection Account for distribution on the succeeding Servicer Remittance Date.
Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration and an Opinion of Counsel is obtained by the Servicer to the effect that such sale shall not cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC).
Section 3.18
Notification of Adjustments. With respect to each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Rate on the related Adjustment Date and shall adjust the Scheduled Payment on the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. In the event that an Index becomes unavailable or otherwise unpublished, the Servicer shall select a comparable alternative index over which it has no direct control and which is readily verifiable. The Servicer shall execute and deliver any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Rate and Scheduled Payment adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Rate or Scheduled Payment in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss caused as such interest loss occurs; provided, however, the Servicer shall be held harmless for any Mortgage Interest Rate Adjustments made by any prior servicer.
Section 3.19
Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans. In the event the Servicer reasonably believes that compliance with this Section will make the Mortgage Loans legal for investment by federally insured savings and loan associations, the Servicer shall provide, or cause the Subservicer to provide, to the Depositor, the Trustee, the OTS or the FDIC and the examiners and supervisory agents thereof, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans in its possession required by applicable regulations of the OTS. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer or, if applicable, any Subservicer. Nothing in this Section shall derogate from the obligation of any such party to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of any such party to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.
Section 3.20
Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the Servicer to Be Held for the Trustee. Not later than thirty days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward to the Trustee a statement prepared by the Servicer setting forth the status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on the last day of the calendar month relating to such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11. Such statement may be in the form of the then current Xxxxxx Xxx Monthly Accounting Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Program with appropriate additions and changes. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon the request and at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.21
Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, be entitled to retain from deposits to the Collection Account and from Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and REO Proceeds related to such Mortgage Loan, the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan (less any portion of such amounts retained by any Subservicer). In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of related Late Collections and as otherwise permitted under Section 3.11. The right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicer may pay from the Servicing Fee any amounts due to a Subservicer pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement entered into under Section 3.02.
(a)
Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption or modification fees, late payment charges, Prepayment Interest Excesses, NSF fees, reconveyance fees and other similar fees and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer. The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein. The Servicer shall also be entitled as additional servicing compensation, to interest or other income earned on deposits in the Escrow Account (to the extent permitted by law and the related Mortgage Loan documents) in accordance with Section 3.12.
(b)
The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of premiums for any blanket policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.13, servicing compensation of the Subservicer to the extent not retained by it and the fees and expenses of independent accountants and any agents appointed by the Servicer), and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the Trust Fund except as specifically provided in Section 3.11.
Section 3.22
Annual Statement as to Compliance. The Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered, and shall cause each Subservicer engaged by such Servicer to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and the Trustee on or before March 15th of each calendar year, commencing in 2007, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of such Servicer or Subservicer, as applicable, during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement, or the applicable Subservicing Agreement, as the case may be, has been made under such officers’ supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, such Servicer or Subservicer, and each Subcontractor utilized by such Servicer and determined by such Servicer pursuant to Section 3.02(e) to be “participating in a servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as applicable, has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officers and the nature and status thereof. Promptly after receipt of such Officer’s Certificate, the Depositor shall review such Officer’s Certificate and, if applicable, consult with the applicable Servicer as to the nature of any defaults by such Servicer or any related Subservicer in the fulfillment of any such Servicer’s or any related Subservicer’s obligations. The obligations of a Servicer or Subservicer under this Section apply to each Servicer that serviced a Mortgage Loan during the applicable period, whether or not such Servicer or Subservicer is acting as a Servicer or Subservicer at the time such Officer’s Certificate is required to be delivered. For purposes of (ii) above, the Servicer or Subservicer will be entitled to rely reasonably upon a certification of any Subcontractor not affiliated with the Servicer or Subservicer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the statement required under this Section 3.22 with respect to any Subservicer or Subcontractor shall not be required to be delivered with respect to any year in which an annual report on Form 10-K for the Trust is not required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.
Section 3.23

Each such assessment of compliance report shall be delivered to the Depositor and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria applicable to such party specified on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto delivered to the Depositor on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the statements and attestations required under this Section 3.23 with respect to any Subservicer or Subcontractor shall not be required to be delivered with respect to any year in which an annual report on Form 10-K for the Trust is not required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.

In the event that an overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for general use and not contain restricted use language. Each such related accountant’s attestation report shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the statements and attestations required under this Section 3.23 with respect to any Subservicer or Subcontractor shall not be required to be delivered with respect to any year in which an annual report on Form 10-K for the Trust is not required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.

Section 3.24
Trustee to Act as Servicer. (a) In the event that the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default), the Trustee or its successor, subject to the rights of the Servicing Rights Pledgee and in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof, shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder arising thereafter, except that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the predecessor Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10 or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer hereunder, (ii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder, (iii) responsible for expenses of the predecessor Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03, (iv) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from doing so by applicable law, (v) deemed to have made any representations and warranties of the Servicer hereunder or (vi) obligated to perform an obligation of the Servicer under Sections 3.22 or 3.23 with respect to any period of time during which the Trustee was not the Servicer.

If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default), the Trustee (or any other successor Servicer), subject to the rights of the Servicing Rights Pledgee, may, at its option, succeed to any rights and obligations of the Servicer under any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof; provided, that the Trustee (or any other successor Servicer) shall not incur any liability or have any obligations in its capacity as successor Servicer under a Subservicing Agreement arising prior to the date of such succession unless it expressly elects to succeed to the rights and obligations of the Servicer there under; and the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the Subservicing Agreement arising prior to the date of such succession.
(c)
The Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the expense of the Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement (if any) and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced there under and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party.

(a) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer agrees to fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on the primary borrower of such Mortgage Loan to Equifax, Experian and TransUnion Credit Information Company (three of the credit repositories) on a monthly basis.
(a)
The Servicer shall comply with Title V of the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act of 1999 and all applicable regulations promulgated there under, relating to the Mortgage Loans and the related borrowers and shall provide all required notices there under.
Section 3.27
Optional Purchases of Mortgage Loans by Servicer. The Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) may, at its option, purchase a Mortgage Loan or REO Property which becomes 120 or more days Delinquent or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure, during the period commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter succeeding the calendar quarter in which the Initial Delinquency Date occurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan and ending on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter. If the Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) does not exercise its purchase right with respect to a Mortgage Loan during the period specified in the preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan shall thereafter again become eligible for purchase pursuant to the preceding sentence only after the Mortgage Loan ceases to be 120 days or more Delinquent and thereafter becomes 120 days Delinquent again. The “Initial Delinquency Date” of a Mortgage Loan shall mean the date on which the Mortgage Loan first became 120 days Delinquent.

The Trustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such delinquent Mortgage Loan or REO Property to the Servicer to the extent necessary, including the prompt delivery of all documentation to the Servicer, without recourse.
Section 3.28
Advance Facility. (a) The Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or other facility (any such arrangement, an “Advance Facility”), the documentation for which complies with Section 3.28(e) below, under which (1) the Servicer assigns or pledges its rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any or all P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances to (i) a Person, which may be a special-purpose bankruptcy-remote entity (an “SPV”), (ii) a Person, which may simultaneously assign or pledge such rights to an SPV or (iii) a lender (a “Lender”), which, in the case of any Person or SPV of the type described in either of the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), may directly or through other assignees and/or pledgees, assign or pledge such rights to a Person, which may include a trustee acting on behalf of holders of debt instruments (any such Person or any such Lender, an “Advance Financing Person”), and/or (2) an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund all the P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Trustee, Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility nor shall the Trustee or the Certificateholders be a third party beneficiary of any obligation of an Advance Financing Person to the Servicer. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances, (A) the Servicer (i) shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement and (ii) shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue of such Advance Facility and (B) neither the Advance Financing Person nor any Servicer’s Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall have any right to proceed against or otherwise contact any Mortgagor for the purpose of collecting any payment that may be due with respect to any related Mortgage Loan or enforcing any covenant of such Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.
(a)
If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person shall deliver to the Trustee at the address set forth in Section 10.05 hereof a written notice (an “Advance Facility Notice”), stating (a) the identity of the Advance Financing Person and (b) the identity of the Person (the “Servicer’s Assignee”) that will, subject to Section 3.28(c) hereof, have the right to make withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof to reimburse previously xxxxxxxxxxxx X&X Advances and/or Servicing Advances (“Advance Reimbursement Amounts”). Advance Reimbursement Amounts (i) shall consist solely of amounts in respect of P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with Section 3.11 hereof, assuming the Servicer had made the related P&I Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s) and (ii) shall not consist of amounts payable to a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 3.11 hereof to the extent permitted under Section 3.28(e) below.
(b)
Notwithstanding the existence of an Advance Facility, the Servicer, on behalf of the Advance Financing Person, shall be entitled to receive reimbursements of P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof, which entitlement may be terminated by the Advance Financing Person pursuant to a written notice to the Trustee in the manner set forth in Section 10.05 hereof. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Servicer shall no longer be entitled to receive reimbursement for any Advance Reimbursement Amounts and the Servicer’s Assignee shall immediately have the right to receive from the Collection Account all Advance Reimbursement Amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Servicer and/or the Servicer’s Assignee shall only be entitled to reimbursement of Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder pursuant to Section 3.11 of this Agreement and shall not otherwise be entitled to make withdrawals of, or receive, Advance Reimbursement Amounts that shall be deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.10 hereof, and (ii) none of the Trustee or the Certificateholders shall have any right to, or otherwise be entitled to, receive any Advance Reimbursement Amounts to which the Servicer or Servicer’s Assignee, as applicable, shall be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Trustee or the Certificateholders shall have any right to set off against Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder. An Advance Facility may be terminated by the joint written direction of the Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person. Written notice of such termination shall be delivered to the Trustee in the manner set forth in Section 10.05 hereof. The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any Advance Reimbursement Amount and shall be entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advance Facility Notice and on such Servicer’s report of the amount of Advance Reimbursement Amounts and Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts that were included in the remittance from such Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 Such Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer a detailed accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advance Financing Person. The successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information.
(c)
[Reserved].
(d)
As between a predecessor Servicer and its Advance Financing Person, on the one hand, and a successor Servicer and its Advance Financing Person, if any, on the other hand, Advance Reimbursement Amounts on a loan-by-loan basis with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which a P&I Advance and/or Servicing Advance shall have been made and be outstanding shall be allocated on a “first-in, first out” basis. In the event the Servicer’s Assignee shall have received some or all of an Advance Reimbursement Amount related to P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than such predecessor Servicer or its related Advance Financing Person in error, then such Servicer’s Assignee shall be required to remit any portion of such Advance Reimbursement Amount to each Person entitled to such portion of such Advance Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advance Financing Person for all P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts have not been assigned or pledged to such Advance Financing Person or Servicer’s Assignee.
(e)
For purposes of any certification of a Servicing Officer of the Servicer made pursuant to Section 4.01, any Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance referred to therein may have been made by such Servicer or any predecessor Servicer. In making its determination that any P&I Advance or Servicing Advance theretofore made has become a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Servicer shall apply the same criteria in making such determination regardless of whether such P&I Advance or Servicing Advance shall have been made by the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer.
(f)
The Trustee shall not, as a result of the existence of any Advance Facility, have any additional responsibility to track or monitor Advance Reimbursement Amounts or any Advance Facility, and, except as expressly provided in Section 3.28(c) above, is not and shall not be obligated to make any payment with respect to any Advance Reimbursement Amount. The Servicer hereby indemnifies the Trustee, the Trust Fund and any successor Servicer, as applicable, from and against any claims, losses, liabilities or damages resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the successor Servicer, or failure by the successor Servicer or the Trustee to remit funds as required by this Agreement or the commission of an act or omission to act by the successor Servicer or the Trustee, and the passage of any applicable cure or grace period, such that a Servicer Event of Termination under this Agreement occurs or such entity is subject to termination for cause under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such P&I Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Trustee.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.11 for Servicing Advances from recoveries from the related Mortgagor or from all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan.

The Trustee will provide the above statement via the Trustee’s internet website. The Trustee’s website will initially be located at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/xxx and assistance in using the website can be obtained by calling the Trustee’s customer service desk at (000) 000-0000. Parties that are unable to use the above distribution method are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the customer service desk and indicating such. The Trustee shall have the right to change the manner in which the above statement is distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible, and the Trustee shall provide timely and adequate notification to the Certificateholders and the parties hereto regarding any such changes. A paper copy of the statement will also be made available upon request.
(c)
Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trustee shall cause to be furnished to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Certificateholder, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(vi) of this Section 4.03 aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall have previously been provided by the Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time in effect.
(d)
Not later than three Business Days following the Determination Date and in no event later than the 20th calendar day of each month, the Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee a monthly remittance advice statement (in a format mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Trustee) containing such information as shall be reasonably requested by the Trustee to enable the Trustee to provide the reports required by Section 4.03(a) as to the accompanying remittance (the “Servicer Remittance Report”).

Section 4.04
Certain Matters Relating to the Determination of LIBOR. LIBOR shall be calculated by the Trustee in accordance with the definition of LIBOR. Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Trustee will at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining LIBOR with respect to each LIBOR Determination Date. The Trustee initially shall designate the Reference Banks (after consultation with the Depositor). Each “Reference Bank” shall be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be under common control with, the Trustee and shall have an established place of business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Trustee should terminate its appointment as Reference Bank, the Trustee shall promptly appoint or cause to be appointed another Reference Bank (after consultation with the Depositor). The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least four Reference Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.
(i)
The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee on each LIBOR Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain quotations from the Reference Banks or to determine the arithmetic mean referred to in the definition of LIBOR, all as provided for in this Section 4.04 and the definition of LIBOR. The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
Section 4.05
Allocation of Applied Realized Loss Amounts and Special Hazard Losses. Any Applied Realized Loss Amounts (other than Special Hazard Losses) will be allocated by the Trustee to the most junior Class of Subordinated Certificates then outstanding in reduction of the Class Certificate Balance thereof. Special Hazard Losses will be allocated by the Trustee to the most junior Class of Subordinated Certificates then outstanding in reduction of the Class Certificate Balance thereof, except that if the aggregate amount of Special Hazard Losses, as of any date of determination, exceeds the greatest of 1.00% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, (ii) two times the amount of the Stated Principal Balance of the largest Mortgage Loan and (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans in the largest zip-code concentration in the State of California, such excess losses will be allocated to the Subordinated Certificates on a pro rata basis based on the Class Certificate Balance of each such class. For the avoidance of doubt, any losses allocated as Special Hazard Losses will not be reimbursed pursuant to Section 4.02 as Unpaid Realized Loss Amounts.
Section 4.06
Supplemental Interest Trust. A separate trust is hereby established (the “Supplemental Interest Trust”), the corpus of which shall be held by the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the LIBOR Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, a separate account for the benefit of the holders of the LIBOR Certificates (the “Supplemental Interest Trust Account”). Funds on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Trust held pursuant to this Agreement.
On any Distribution Date, Cap Payments, Swap Termination Payments, Net Swap Payments owed to the Swap Provider and Net Swap Receipts for that Distribution Date will be deposited into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account. Funds in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account will be distributed in the following order of priority:
(i)
to the Swap Provider, all Net Swap Payments owed to the Swap Provider for such Distribution Date;
(ii)
to the Swap Provider, any Swap Termination Payment, other than a Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, if any, owed to the Swap Provider;
(iii)
concurrently, to the Class A Certificates, on a pro rata basis, to pay Accrued Certificate Interest Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest Amounts, to the extent unpaid from Available Funds;
(iv)
sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, in that order, to pay Accrued Certificate Interest Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest Amounts, to the extent unpaid from Available Funds;
(v)
to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4 Certificates, to pay principal as described in Section 4.02(a)(ii)(A) or Section 4.02(a)(ii)(B), as applicable, but only to the extent necessary to restore the Subordinated Amount at the Specified Subordinated Amount as a result of current or prior Realized Losses not previously reimbursed, after giving effect to payments and distributions from Available Funds;
(vi)
sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, in that order, any remaining Unpaid Realized Loss Amount for such Distribution Amount;
(vii)
concurrently, to the Class A Certificates, any unpaid Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount for that Distribution Date, first, pro rata, based on their respective Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts for that Distribution Date and second, pro rata, based on those respective Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts, any remaining unpaid Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts;
(viii)
sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, in that order, first any unpaid Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount for that Distribution Date, and second, any remaining unpaid Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts;
(ix)
to the Swap Provider, any Defaulted Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider for that Distribution Date; and
(x)
to the holders of the Class CE Certificates, any remaining amounts.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Supplemental Interest Trust receives a Swap Termination Payment and a successor Swap Provider cannot be obtained, then the Trustee shall deposit the Swap Termination Payment into the reserve account that is a sub-account of the Supplemental Interest Trust Account. On each subsequent Distribution Date (so long as funds are available in such reserve account), the Trustee shall withdraw from the reserve account and deposit into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account an amount equal to the amount of any Net Swap Receipt due the Supplemental Interest Trust (calculated in accordance with the terms of the original Swap Agreement) and treat such amount as a Net Swap Receipt for purposes of determining the distributions from the Supplemental Interest Trust Account. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set forth in this Section 4.06.
In the event the Swap Provider does not deliver the Delivery Amount (as defined in the Swap Agreement) to the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide notice of such failure to the Swap Provider within one Business Day of such failure.
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 5.01
The Certificates. The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto as exhibits. The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form, in the minimum denominations, integral multiples in excess thereof (except that one Certificate in each Class may be issued in a different amount) and aggregate denominations per Class set forth in the Preliminary Statement.
Subject to Section 9.02 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder has so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing in the Certificate Register.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of any such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless authenticated by the Trustee by manual signature, and such authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall authenticate the Certificates to be issued at the direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.
Section 5.02
Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06, a Certificate Register for the Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate, and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures.
(a)
No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under said Act and such state securities laws. In determining whether a transfer is being made pursuant to an effective registration statement, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely upon a written notice to such effect from the Depositor. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to register or cause the registration of any Certificates under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws or to take any other action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of any Certificate without registration. Except with respect to the transfer of the Class CE, Class P, Class R-X or Class R Certificates to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, in the event that a transfer of a Private Certificate which is a Physical Certificate is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit H (the “Transferor Certificate”) and either (i) there shall be delivered to the Trustee a letter in substantially the form of Exhibit I (the “Rule 144A Letter”) or Exhibit I-2 (the “Non-Rule 144A Investment Letter”) or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act. In the event that a transfer of a Private Certificate which is a Book-Entry Certificate is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer will be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the certifications set forth in the Transferor Certificate in respect of such Certificate and the transferee will be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the certifications set forth in the Rule 144A Letter in respect of such Certificate, in each case as if such Certificate were evidenced by a Physical Certificate. A transferee of any Private Certificate who is not a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act must take delivery of such Private Certificates in definitive form. As directed by the Depositor, the Trustee shall provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Depositor and the Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the preceding sentence, including providing to the Trustee such information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably determine to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
Except with respect to the transfer of the Class CE, Class P, Class R-X or Class R Certificates to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, no transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee (in the event such Certificate is a Private Certificate or a Residual Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by the Trustee’s receipt of a representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I), to the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section 406 of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any Federal, state or local law (“Similar Law”) materially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code, nor a person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using the assets of any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer, or (ii) in the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate other than a Residual Certificate, a Class CE Certificate or a Class P Certificate that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, and the purchaser is an insurance company, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance company that is purchasing such Certificates with funds contained in an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE 95-60”)) and that the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) in the case of any such ERISA-Restricted Certificate other than a Residual Certificate, Class CE Certificate or Class P Certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a plan subject to Similar Law, or a trustee of any such plan or any other person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement or using such plan’s or arrangement’s assets, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the Servicer, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that the purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law and will not subject the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer to any obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability. For purposes of the preceding sentence, with respect to an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is not a Private Certificate or a Residual Certificate, in the event the representation letter referred to in the preceding sentence is not furnished, such representation shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the transferee’s (including an initial acquirer’s) acceptance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, (a) any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate, other than a Class P Certificate, Class CE Certificate or Residual Certificate, to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, the Code or Similar Law without the delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee as described above shall be void and of no effect and (b) any purported transfer of a Class P Certificate, Class CE Certificate or Residual Certificate to a transferee that does not make the representation in clause (i) above shall be void and of no effect.
None of the Class R, Class R-X, Class CE or Class P Certificates may be sold to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, any plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or any plan subject to any Similar Law or any person investing on behalf or with plan assets of such plan.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.
As long as the Swap Agreement or Cap Agreement is in effect, each beneficial owner of a Certificate other than a Class B Certificate or an ERISA-Restricted Certificate, or any interest therein, shall be deemed to have represented that either (i) it is not a Plan or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the Certificate are eligible for the exemptive relief available under at least one of (i) Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 84-14 (for transactions by independent "qualified professional asset managers"), (ii) PTCE 91-38 (for transactions by bank collective investment funds), (iii) XXXX 00-0 (for transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTCE 95-60 (for transactions by insurance company general accounts) or (iv) PTCE 96-23 (for transactions effected by "in-house asset managers") or similar exemption under similar law.
(b)
Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(i)
Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee;
(ii)
No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the certificates required to be delivered to the Trustee under subparagraph (b) above, the Trustee shall have been furnished with an affidavit (a “Transfer Affidavit”) of the initial owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G;
(iii)
Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Residual Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any other Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is a Non-Permitted Transferee;
(iv)
Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit, Transferor Certificate and the Rule 144A Letter. The Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact a Non-Permitted Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became a Non-Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate; and
(v)
The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Holder who is a Non-Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in this Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee or the Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Residual Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the Transfer of a Residual Certificate which is held by a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.
(c)
The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions referred to above in this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at the expense of the parties to such transfers.
(d)
Except as provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times: (i) registration of the Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee shall deal with the Depository, Depository Participants and indirect participating firms as representatives of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of holders under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such representatives shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and persons shown on the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures.
If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, or (y) the Depositor notifies the Depository of its intent to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository and, upon receipt of notice of such intent from the Depository, the Depository Participants holding beneficial interests in the Book-Entry Certificates agree to initiate such termination, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of definitive, fully registered Certificates (the “Definitive Certificates”) to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by the instructions from the Depository for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. None of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instruction and each may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. The Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder; provided, that the Trustee shall not by virtue of its assumption of such obligations become liable to any party for any act or failure to act of the Depository.
(e)
Each Private Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8IMY (and all appropriate attachments) or W-9 in form satisfactory to the Trustee, duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Private Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Private Certificates.

if a Cumulative Loss Event occurs.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (a) through (h) of this Section 7.01 shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, or at the direction of a majority of the Voting Rights the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to give written notice to the Servicer of the occurrence of an Event of Default unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of the occurrence of such an event. In the event that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an event of default described in clause (f) of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall give written notice to the Servicer of the occurrence of such an event within one Business Day of the first day on which such Responsible Officer obtains actual knowledge of such occurrence. On and after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer hereunder, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall, subject to Section 7.02, pass to and be vested in the Trustee. Subject to Section 7.02, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to the Collection Account, or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive from the Trust Fund, prior to transfer of its servicing obligations hereunder, payment of all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and reimbursement for all outstanding P&I Advances and Servicing Advances.
Section 7.02
Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall, subject to and to the extent provided in Section 3.24 and subject to the rights of the Servicing Rights Pledgee, be the successor to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and applicable law including the obligation to make P&I Advances or Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans that the Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Collection Account if the Servicer had continued to act hereunder including, if the Servicer was receiving the Servicing Fee, the Servicing Fee and the income on investments or gain related to the Collection Account (in addition to income on investments or gain related to the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Trustee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has become the successor to the Servicer in accordance with this Section 7.02, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is prohibited by applicable law from making P&I Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 4.01 or if it is otherwise unable to so act, or, at the written request of Certificateholders entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution the appointment of which does not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates by each Rating Agency, as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Any successor to the Servicer shall be an institution which is a Xxxxxx Xxx- and Xxxxxxx Mac-approved seller/servicer in good standing, which has a net worth of at least $15,000,000, which is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and which executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and assignment, containing an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer (other than liabilities of the Servicer under Section 6.03 incurred prior to termination of the Servicer under Section 7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement; provided, that each Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or reduced, as a result of such assignment and delegation. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, the Trustee, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to Section 3.24, act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it, the Depositor and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the Servicing Fee Rate and amounts paid to the Servicer from investments. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor Servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder, in either case caused by the failure of the Servicer to deliver or provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash, information, documents or records to it.
In the event that the Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 7.01, the terminated Servicer shall provide notices to the Mortgagors, transfer the Servicing Files to a successor Servicer and pay all of its own out-of-pocket costs and expenses at its own expense. In addition, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of a servicing transfer incurred by parties other than the terminated Servicer (including, without limitation, any costs or expenses (including but not limited to personnel time) associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the Trustee or successor servicer to correct ay errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee or successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively, but excluding set-up costs and other administrative expenses of the successor Servicer, in which case the successor Servicer shall pay for such costs and expenses but shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the Trust Fund), such an amount shall be paid by the terminated Servicer promptly upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs. If the Trustee is the predecessor Servicer (except in the case where the Trustee in its role as successor Servicer is being terminated pursuant to Section 7.01 by reason of an Event of Default caused solely by the Trustee as the successor Servicer and not by the predecessor Servicer’s actions or omissions), such costs shall be paid by the prior terminated Servicer promptly upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs.
Any successor to the Servicer as servicer shall give notice to the Mortgagors of such change of Servicer, in accordance with applicable federal and state law, and shall, during the term of its service as Servicer, maintain in force the policy or policies that the Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section 3.13.
In the event an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the Servicer, notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Trustee and the Depositor hereby agree that ten Business Days after delivery to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer within ten Business Days of the date on which the Trustee sent notice of such default, whereunder the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall appoint the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee as successor Servicer, provided that at the time of appointment, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements of a successor Servicer set forth above and the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee agrees to be subject to the terms of this Agreement. If the Servicing Rights Pledgee fails to provide the Trustee with such letter, the Trustee shall appoint a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 7.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Servicer shall continue to perform all of the obligations of Servicer hereunder until the Trustee appoints a successor Servicer.
Any such successor Servicer shall be required to satisfy the requirements of a successor Servicer under this Section 7.02.
Section 7.03
Notification to Certificateholders. (a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders and each Rating Agency.

Each of the undertakings and agreements made on the part of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund in the Certificates is made and intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust Fund.
Section 8.04
Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Trustee.
Section 8.05
Trustee’s Fees and Expenses. As compensation for its activities under this Agreement, the Trustee may withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date the Trustee Fee for the Distribution Date and any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Distribution Account. The Trustee and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) resulting from any error in any tax or information return prepared by the Servicer or incurred in connection with:
(a)
this Agreement,
(b)
the Certificates, or
(c)
the performance of any of the Trustee’s duties under this Agreement,
other than any loss, liability, or expense (i) resulting from any breach of the Servicer’s obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Servicer has performed its obligation to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.05, (ii) resulting from any breach of the Seller’s obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Seller has performed its obligation to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.03(h) or (iii) incurred because of willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence in the performance of any of the Trustee’s duties under this Agreement. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Trustee under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Depositor and the Trustee, and except for any expense, disbursement, or advance arising from the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct, the Trust Fund shall pay or reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable expenses, disbursements, and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement with respect to:
(A)
the reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements of its counsel not associated with the closing of the issuance of the Certificates, and
(B)
the reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements of any accountant, engineer, or appraiser that is not regularly employed by the Trustee, to the extent that the Trustee must engage them to perform services under this Agreement.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or a separate letter agreement between the Trustee and the Depositor, the Trustee shall not be entitled to payment or reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee, Registrar, or paying agent under this Agreement or for any other routine expenses incurred by the Trustee.
Section 8.06
Eligibility Requirements for the Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and with a credit rating which would not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce their respective then current ratings of the Certificates (or having provided such security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such reduction) as evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or association publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with this Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07. The entity serving as Trustee may have normal banking and trust relationships with the Depositor and its affiliates or the Servicer and its affiliates; provided, however, that such entity cannot be an affiliate of the Depositor or the Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as successor to the Servicer.
Section 8.07
Resignation and Removal of the Trustee. The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the Servicer and each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the date specified in such notice, when, subject to Section 8.08, such resignation is to take effect, and acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with Section 8.08 meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor trustee meeting such qualifications shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request thereto by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located and the imposition of such tax would be avoided by the appointment of a different trustee, then the Depositor or the Servicer may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, one copy to the Servicer and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least a majority of the Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which shall be delivered by the successor Trustee to the Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. The successor trustee shall notify each Rating Agency of any removal of the Trustee.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to this Section 8.07 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.08.
Section 8.08
Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor trustee and the Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The Depositor, the Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 8.08 unless at the time of its acceptance, the successor trustee is eligible under Section 8.06 and its appointment does not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.
Section 8.09
Merger or Consolidation of the Trustee. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided, that such corporation shall be eligible under Section 8.06 without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. As a condition to the succession to the Trustee under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee, the Trustee shall notify the Depositor, at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment, and shall furnish to the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably necessary for the Trustee to accurately and timely report, pursuant to Section 8.12(g), the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).
Section 8.10
Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be located, the Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof, whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee may consider appropriate. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 8.08.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(a)
To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee under this Agreement to advance funds on behalf of the Servicer, shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the applicable Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee;
(b)
No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable because of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the Trustee;
(c)
The Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee except that following the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, the Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(d)
The Trust Fund, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to any such separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees, when and as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection and indemnity to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Servicer and the Depositor.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.
Section 8.11
Tax Matters. It is intended that the assets with respect to which any REMIC election pertaining to the Trust Fund is to be made, as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall constitute, and that the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be such as to qualify such assets as, a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Trustee is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of each Trust REMIC and that in such capacity it shall:
(a)
prepare and file in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (REMIC) Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year with respect to each Trust REMIC containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby;
(b)
within thirty days of the Closing Date, the Trustee will apply for an employer identification number from the Internal Revenue Service via Form SS-4 or any other acceptable method for all tax entities and shall also furnish to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title, address, and telephone number of the person that the holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update such information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code;
(c)
make an election that each REMIC created hereby be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state law);
(d)
prepare and forward to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including the calculation of any original issue discount using the prepayment assumption (as described in the Prospectus Supplement);
(e)
provide information necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non-Permitted Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(f)
to the extent that they are under its control, conduct matters relating to such assets at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions;
(g)
not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of any Trust REMIC created hereunder;
(h)
pay, from the sources specified in the last paragraph of this Section 8.11, the amount of any federal or state tax, including prohibited transaction taxes as described below, imposed on each Trust REMIC before its termination when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings);
(i)
cause federal, state or local income tax or information returns to be signed by the Trustee or such other person as may be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules;
(j)
and maintain records relating to each of the Trust REMICs, including the income, expenses, assets, and liabilities thereof on a calendar year basis and on the accrual method of accounting and the adjusted basis of the assets determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information.
The Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of (i) the Class R Certificates shall act as Tax Matters Person for the Lower Tier REMIC, the Middle Tier REMIC and the Upper Tier REMIC and (ii) the Class R-X Certificates shall act as Tax Matters Person for each remaining Trust REMIC, in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d), and the Trustee is hereby designated as agent of such Certificateholder for such purpose (or if the Trustee is not so permitted, such Holder shall be the Tax Matters Person in accordance with the REMIC Provisions). In such capacity, the Trustee shall, as and when necessary and appropriate, represent any Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority, request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any Trust REMIC, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of any Trust REMIC, and otherwise act on behalf of each REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving it.
The Trustee shall treat the beneficial owners of the Principal Certificates as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the beneficial owners of the Class CE Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all beneficial owners of Principal Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the beneficial owners of the Class CE Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the REMIC regular interest corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class I Shortfall”). A Class I Shortfall payable from interest collections shall be allocated pro rata among such Certificates based on the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Certificates, such interest being determined by substituting the REMIC Maximum Rate for the applicable Net WAC Cap in the definition of Pass-Through Rate for such Class of Certificates, and a Class I Shortfall payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to the extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract, the beneficial owner of the Class CE Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts to the Owners of the Principal Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates in light of the foregoing shall not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates of a Class I Shortfall shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received by the beneficial owners of such Certificates in respect of the REMIC regular interests corresponding to such Certificates and as having been paid by such beneficial owners to the Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus, each Principal and Class CE Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of REMIC regular interests, but also ownership of an interest in (and obligations with respect to) a notional principal contract. For tax purposes, the notional principal contract shall be deemed to have a value in favor of the Certificates entitled to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts of $10,000.00 as of the Closing Date.
The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Class CE Certificateholders to receive amounts in the Excess Reserve Fund Account and the Supplemental Interest Trust Account (subject, other than in the case of the Class CE Certificates, to the obligation to pay Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts) and the rights of the Principal Certificateholders to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts as the beneficial ownership of interests in a grantor trust, and not as an obligation of any Trust REMIC created hereunder, for federal income tax purposes. The Trustee shall file or cause to be filed with the IRS together with Form 1041 or such other form as may be applicable and shall furnish or cause to be furnished, the Class CE Certificateholders and the Principal Certificateholders, the respective amounts described above that are received, in the time or times and in the manner required by the Code.
To enable the Trustee to perform its duties under this Agreement, the Depositor shall provide to the Trustee within ten days after the Closing Date all information or data that the Trustee requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including the price, yield, prepayment assumption, and projected cash flows of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans. Moreover, the Depositor shall provide information to the Trustee concerning the value to each Class of Certificates of the right to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from the Excess Reserve Fund Account and Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts. Unless otherwise advised by the Depositor, for federal income tax purposes, the Trustee is hereby directed to assign a value of zero to the right of each Holder allocating the purchase price of an initial Offered Certificateholder between such right and the related Upper Tier Regular Interest. Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide to the Trustee promptly upon written request therefor any additional information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time, reasonably request to enable the Trustee to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Depositor shall not be required to provide any information regarding the Mortgage Loans that the Servicer is required to provide to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims, or expenses of the Trustee arising from any errors or miscalculations of the Trustee that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide, pursuant to this paragraph, accurate information or data to the Trustee on a timely basis.
Neither the Servicer nor Trustee shall (i) permit the creation of any interests in any Trust REMIC other than the regular and residual interests set forth in the Preliminary Statement, (ii) receive any amount representing a fee or other compensation for services (except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement) or (iii) otherwise knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (A) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a Trust REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, or the tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) unless the Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the Trustee determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust Fund, but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC created hereunder, endanger such status or, unless the Trustee determines in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, result in the imposition of such a tax).
If any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of any Trust REMIC as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of the Lower Tier REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, including any minimum tax imposed on any Trust REMIC pursuant to Sections 23153 and 24874 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, if not paid as otherwise provided for herein, the tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee if such tax arises out of or results from negligence of the Trustee in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, and otherwise if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Servicer of any of its obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) in all other cases, or if the Trustee or the Servicer fails to honor its obligations under the preceding clause (i) or (ii), any such tax will be paid with amounts otherwise to be distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in Section 4.02(a).
Section 8.12
Periodic Filings. (a) The Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the reporting requirements of the Trust under the Exchange Act. As set forth below, the Trustee shall prepare for execution by the Depositor any Forms 10-D and will prepare for execution by the Servicer any Forms 10-K required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission there under, in order to permit the timely filing thereof, and the Trustee shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System) such Forms executed by the Depositor and Servicer (as applicable).
(a)
Each Form 10-D shall be filed by the Trustee within 15 days after each Distribution Date, including (i) a copy of the monthly statement to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto; and (ii) such other information as is required by Form 10-D as listed on Exhibit T and provided by the party listed on Exhibit T; provided that such information is provided to the Trustee no later than the first Business Day immediately following the related Distribution Date. The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining what information is required to be filed on Form 10-D (unless such information is specific to the Trustee, in which case the Trustee will be responsible for making such a determination) or for any filing that is not made on a timely basis in accordance with Regulation AB in the event that such information is not delivered to the Trustee on or prior to the first Business Day immediately following the related Determination Date. If the Trustee is unable to file a Form 10-D within 15 days after a Distribution Date, the Trustee shall prepare for execution by the Depositor and file a Form 12b-25 not later than one Business Day following the due date for such Form 10-D. Within 5 days following the filing of such Form 12b-25, the Trustee shall prepare and file the related Form 10-D. For so long as Barclays Bank PLC is the Cap Provider, the following statement shall be incorporated by reference into Item 7 of each Form 10-D filed. “The financial statements of Barclays Bank PLC filed pursuant to any Form 20-F or Form 6-K filed by Barclays Bank PLC during the reporting period covered by the Form 10-D.”
Prior to March 30th of each year commencing in 2007 (or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission), the Trustee shall file a Form 10-K. Such Form 10-K shall include the information listed on Exhibit U and each party shall provide the information they are responsible for pursuant to Exhibit U. Such Form 10-K shall include as exhibits (i) each annual statement as to compliance described under Section 3.22 of this Agreement, (ii) the annual report on assessments of compliance and annual independent public accountant’s servicing reports described under Section 3.23 of the Agreement, in each case to the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee. Promptly upon receipt by the Servicer of (i) (A) any Officer’s Certificate relating to the Trustee’s or Subservicer’s annual statement as to compliance delivered pursuant to Section 3.22 of this Agreement and (B) any annual report on assessment of compliance and annual independent public accountant’s servicing report, pursuant to Section 3.23 of this Agreement, the Servicer shall review such Officer’s Certificate’s and reports. As part of the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to this Section 8.12, the Servicer shall include (i) each such annual statement as to compliance, annual report on assessment of servicing compliance with servicing criteria and annual independent public accountant’s servicing report required to be delivered under this Agreement. In addition, if there is any material instance of non-compliance disclosed in a report delivered pursuant to Section 3.22 or 3.23 of this Agreement, each material instance of noncompliance shall be disclosed in the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to this Section 8.12. If the Trustee is unable to file such Form 10-K by the applicable due date, the Trustee shall prepare for execution by the Depositor and file, a Form 12b-25 not later than one Business Day following the due date for such Form 10-K. Within 5 days following the filing of such Form 12b-25, the Trustee shall prepare and file the related Form 10-K. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain any information not resulting from its own negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Form 10-K shall also include a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L, with such changes as may be necessary or appropriate as a result of changes promulgated by the Commission (the “Sarbanes Certification”), which shall, except as described below, be signed by the senior officer in charge of the servicing function of the Servicer.
(b)
In connection with the Form 10-K, the Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M) for the benefit of the Servicer and its officers, directors and Affiliates. Each such certification shall be delivered to the Servicer no later than March 10th of each year (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) and the Servicer shall deliver the Sarbanes Certification to be filed to the Trustee and the Depositor no later than March 20th of each year (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day). In the event that prior to the filing date of the Form 10-K in March of each year, if any party hereto has actual knowledge of information material to the Sarbanes Certification, that party shall promptly notify the Servicer and each of the other parties signing the certifications. In addition, (i) the Trustee shall, subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof, indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and the Servicer and any of their officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon any breach of the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 8.12, the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith or any material misstatement in the Trustee’s certification and (ii) the Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and the Trustee and any of their respective officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses (other than punitive damages) arising out of or based upon any breach of the Servicer’s obligations under Section 8.12 or any material misstatement or omission in the Sarbanes Certificate. If the indemnification provided for in the preceding sentence is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any indemnified party, then (i) the Trustee agrees in connection with a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 8.12 or the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party, on the one hand, and the Trustee, on the other, and (ii) the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnified party, on the one hand, and the Servicer, on the other hand, in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under this Section 8.12.
(c)
Upon any filing with the Commission, the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor a copy of any such executed report, statement or information.
(d)
The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section shall only apply with respect to periods for which reports are required to be filed with respect to the Trust under the Exchange Act. Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trustee is able to do so under applicable law, the Trustee shall file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect to the Trust.

Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of the Mortgage Loans. Subject to Section 9.03, the obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee created hereby with respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase, on the Optional Termination Date, by the Servicer, or an affiliate of the Servicer, of all Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than in respect of REO Property) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate, (ii) the lesser of (x) the appraised value of any REO Property as determined by an independent appraiser selected by the Servicer, at the Servicer’s expense, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the related Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rates and (y) the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate, and (iii) any Swap Termination Payment, other than a Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, owed to the Swap Provider pursuant to the Swap Agreement (the “Termination Price”), and (b) the later of (i) the maturity or other Liquidation Event (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.
Section 9.02
Final Distribution on the Certificates. If on any Remittance Date, the Servicer determines that there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund other than the funds in the Collection Account, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee promptly to send a Notice of Final Distribution to each Certificateholder and the Swap Provider. If the Servicer elects to exercise its option to purchase the Mortgage Loans pursuant to clause (a) of Section 9.01, at least 20 days prior to the date the Notice of Final Distribution is to be mailed to the affected Certificateholders, the Servicer shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the Final Distribution Date and the Termination Price.
A Notice of Final Distribution, specifying the Distribution Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed not later than the 15th day of the month of such final distribution. Any such Notice of Final Distribution shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated, (b) the amount of such final distribution, (c) the location of the office or agency at which such presentation and surrender must be made and (d) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office therein specified. The Trustee will give such Notice of Final Distribution to each Rating Agency at the time such Notice of Final Distribution is given to Certificateholders.
In the event such Notice of Final Distribution is given, the Servicer shall cause all funds in the Collection Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account on the Business Day prior to the applicable Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in respect of the Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust Fund and the receipt by the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, of a Request for Release therefor, the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, shall promptly release to the Servicer the Custodial Files for the Mortgage Loans.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class (after reimbursement of all amounts due to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee hereunder), in each case on the final Distribution Date and in the order set forth in Section 4.02, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, with respect to Certificateholders of the same Class, up to an amount equal to (i) as to each Class of Regular Certificates (except the Class CE Certificates), the Certificate Balance thereof plus for each such Class and the Class CE Certificates accrued interest thereon in the case of an interest-bearing Certificate and all other amounts to which such Classes are entitled pursuant to Section 4.02 and (ii) as to the Residual Certificates, the amount, if any, which remains on deposit in the Distribution Account (other than the amounts retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to clause (i) above.
In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the Notice of Final Distribution, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within six months after such second notice all the applicable Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets which remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one year after the second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R or R-X Certificateholders, as applicable, shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund which remain subject hereto.
Section 9.03
Additional Termination Requirements. In the event the Servicer exercises its purchase option with respect to the Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 9.01, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the Servicer, to the effect that the failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.03 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” on any Trust REMIC as defined in Section 860F of the Code or (ii) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding:
Following the Trustee’s receipt of such Opinion of Counsel, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Fund to the Servicer, and, within 89 days of such sale, shall distribute to the Certificateholders the proceeds of such sale in complete liquidation of each of the Trust REMICs; and the Trustee shall attach a statement to the final federal income tax return for each of the Trust REMICs stating that pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-1, the first day of the 90-day liquidation period for each such REMIC was the date on which the Trustee sold the assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01(a).

The Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer also may at any time and from time to time amend this Agreement, but without the consent of the Certificateholders to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary or helpful to (i) maintain the qualification of each Trust REMIC under the Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the Code that would be a claim at any time prior to the final redemption of the Certificates or (iii) comply with any other requirements of the Code or Regulation AB; provided, that the Trustee has been provided an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or helpful to, as applicable, (i) maintain such qualification, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax or (iii) comply with any such requirements of the Code.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee, but with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 66% of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in clause (i), without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 66% or (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all such Certificates then outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless (i) it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such amendment will not cause the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC or the Certificateholders or cause any such REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the grantor trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust at any time that any Certificates are outstanding and (ii) the party seeking such amendment shall have provided written notice to the Rating Agencies (with a copy of such notice to the Trustee) of such amendment, stating the provisions of the Agreement to be amended.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.01, with respect to any amendment that significantly modifies the permitted activities of the Trustee or the Servicer, any Certificate beneficially owned by the Depositor shall be deemed not to be outstanding (and shall not be considered when determining the percentage of Certificateholders consenting or when calculating the total number of Certificates entitled to consent) for purposes of determining if the requisite consents of Certificateholders under this Section 10.01 have been obtained.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 10.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that (i) such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with and (ii) either the amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this Section 10.01.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to this Agreement shall require the prior written consent of the Swap Provider if such amendment materially and adversely affects the rights or interests of the Swap Provider.

The Depositor, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any security interest granted or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

Section 10.08

The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1.
The undersigned is an officer of __________________, the proposed Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate (the “Certificate”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Agreement”), relating to the above-referenced Series, by and among Securitized Asset Backed Receivables LLC, as depositor (the “Depositor”), Xxxxxx Loan Servicing LP, as servicer (the “Servicer”), Credit-Based Asset Servicing and Securitization LLC, as seller (the “Seller”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee.
2.
The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Certificate for its own account. The Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3.
The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are Non-Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and (iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false.
4.
The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will be imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Certificate if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. The Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (For this purpose, a “pass-through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another Person.)
5.
The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6.
The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is a Non-Permitted Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit H to the Agreement (a “Transferor Certificate”) to the effect that, among other things, such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to which the Transfer is to be made is a Non-Permitted Transferee.
7.
The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Certificate. The Transferee has historically paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future. The Transferee intends to pay all taxes due with respect to the Certificate as they become due.
8.
The Transferee’s taxpayer identification number is __________________.
9.
The Transferee is not a Disqualified Non-U.S. Person as defined in the Agreement.
10.
The Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be a “noneconomic residual interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
11.
The Transferee will not cause income from the Residual Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other U.S. Person.
12.
Check the applicable paragraph:
[ ] The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:
(i)
the present value of any consideration given to the Transferee to acquire such Certificate;
(ii)
the present value of the expected future distributions on such Certificate; and
(iii)
the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.
For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Transferee is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b) (1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Transferee has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Transferee.
[ ] The transfer of the Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-l(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,
(viii)
the Transferee is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-l(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;
(ix)
(at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Transferee’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Transferee had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Transferee within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6) (ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;
(x)
the Transferee will transfer the Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-l(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations; and
(xi)
the Transferee determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including,but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Transferee) that it has determined in good faith.
[ ] None of the above.
13.
The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title I of ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any Federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and the Transferee is not acting on behalf of or investing plan assets of such a plan.
