4. Calculations; Distribution of Payments; Delivery of Notices.
The Swap Contract Administrator hereby agrees to make payments
based on the information provided by the Trustee and the Counterparty, and the
Swap Contract Administrator shall, absent manifest error, be entitled to rely
on information provided by the Trustee and the Counterparty.
On the Business Day of receipt of any payment from the
Counterparty or the Guarantor, the Swap Contract Administrator shall withdraw
the amount of such payment from the Swap Administration Account and distribute
such amounts sequentially, as follows:
(a) first, to the Trustee for deposit into the Swap Account, the

Bank: Bank of New York

REF: CWABS 2006-22 X'S SwapPyt
On the Business Day of receipt of any payment from the Trustee for

such amounts to the Counterparty in accordance with the wiring instructions
specified in the Swap Contract.
The Swap Contract Administrator shall prepare and deliver any
notices required to be delivered under the Swap Contract.
On the Business Day of receipt of any notices, information or
reports received by the Swap Contract Administrator from the Counterparty, the

without limitation information regarding any Net Swap Payment or Swap
Termination Payment that will be payable by the Swap Contract Administrator to

4
5. Control Rights; Delivery Amounts; Replacement Swap Contract.
The Trustee shall have the right to direct the Swap Contract
Administrator with respect to the exercise of any right under the Swap
Contract and the ISDA Master Agreement (such as the right to designate an
Early Termination Date following an Event of Default or Termination Event
(each such term as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement)).
If the obligations of the Counterparty are, or shall become,
guaranteed pursuant to the guarantee of any party (whether an affiliate of the
Counterparty or otherwise), then the Swap Contract Administrator shall
promptly demand in accordance with the terms of the guarantee from such
guarantor all amounts payable or deliverable by the Counterparty under the
ISDA Master Agreement in the event that the Counterparty fails to make timely
payment or delivery of such amounts.
Upon the Trustee obtaining actual knowledge of a Failure to Pay or
Deliver (as defined in the Swap Contract), the Swap Contract Administrator, at
the direction of the Trustee, shall demand payment under the Swap Guarantee.
Upon the Swap Contract Administrator or the Trustee obtaining
actual knowledge of the rating of the Counterparty falling below the Approved
Ratings Threshold (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) or the Required
Ratings Threshold (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement), the Swap Contract
Administrator, at the direction of the Trustee, shall demand payment of the
Delivery Amount (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) from the Counterparty
on each Valuation Date (as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) and perform
its other obligations in accordance with the ISDA Master Agreement and (ii)
take such other action required under the ISDA Master Agreement. If a Delivery
Amount is demanded, the Swap Contract Administrator shall establish an account
to hold cash or other eligible investments pledged under the ISDA Master
Agreement. Any such account shall be an "Eligible Account" as defined in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any cash or other Eligible Collateral (as
defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) pledged under the ISDA Master Agreement
shall not be part of the Swap Administration Account unless they are applied in
accordance with the ISDA Master Agreement to make a payment due to the Swap
Contract Administrator pursuant to the Swap Contract. If Eligible Collateral
with a value equal to the Delivery Amount is not delivered to the Swap Contract
Administrator by the Swap Counterparty, the Swap Contract Administrator, at the
direction of the Swap Trustee, shall notify the Swap Counterparty of such
failure.
In the event that the Swap Contract is terminated, CHL shall
assist the Swap Contract Administrator in procuring a replacement swap
contract with terms approximating those of the original Swap Contract, and the
Swap Contract Administrator shall enter into a replacement swap contract
procured by CHL or the Counterparty and continue to serve as Swap Contract
Administrator pursuant to the terms hereof. Any Swap Termination Payment
received from the Counterparty shall be used to pay any upfront amount
required under any replacement swap contract, and any excess shall be
distributed to CHL. In the event that a replacement swap contract cannot be
procured, any Swap Termination Payment received from the Counterparty in
respect of the termination of the original Swap Contract shall be held in the
Swap Administration Account and distributed as provided in Section 4.
In the event that a replacement swap is procured and the
replacement counterparty pays an upfront amount to the Swap Contract
Administrator in connection with the execution of the replacement swap
contract, then (i) if that upfront amount is not received prior to the
Distribution
5
Date on which any Swap Termination Payment was due to the Counterparty under
the original Swap Contract, that upfront amount shall be held in the Swap
Administration Account and distributed as provided in Section 4, and (ii) if
that upfront amount is received prior to the Distribution Date on which any
Swap Termination Payment is due to the Counterparty under the original Swap
Contract, the Swap Contract Administrator shall remit to the Trustee, to be
included in Interest Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2, the portion of
such upfront amount equal to the lesser of (x) such upfront amount and (y) the
amount of the Swap Termination Payment due to the Counterparty under the
Original Swap Contract, to be allocated between Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2
pro rata based on their respective Interest Funds for that Distribution Date.
Any upfront amount paid by a replacement counterparty that is not remitted by
the Swap Contract Administrator to the Trustee pursuant to clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence shall be distributed to CHL.
6. Monitoring of Significance Percentage. With respect to each Distribution
Date, the Swap Contract Administrator shall calculate the "significance
percentage" (as defined in Item 1115 of Subpart 229.1100 - Asset Backed
Securities (Regulation AB), 17 C.F.R. xx.xx. 229.1100-229.1123) of the Swap
Contract based on the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Benefited
Certificates for such Distribution Date (after all distributions to be made
thereon on such Distribution Date) and based on the methodology provided in
writing by or on behalf of CHL no later than the fifth Business Day preceding
such Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date, the Swap Contract
Administrator shall provide to CHL a written report (which written report may
include similar information with respect to other derivative instruments
relating to securitization transactions sponsored by CHL) specifying the
"significance percentage" of the Swap Contract for that Distribution Date. If
the "significance percentage" of the Swap Contract exceeds 7.0% with respect
to any Distribution Date, the Swap Contract Administrator shall make a
separate notation thereof in the written report described in the preceding
sentence. Such written report may contain such assumptions and disclaimers as
are deemed necessary and appropriate by the Swap Contract Administrator.
7. Representations and Warranties of the Swap Contract Administrator. The Swap
Contract Administrator represents and warrants as follows:
