Amendments
to the Agreement
SECTION
3.01. Amendments.
The
definition of “One-Year
MTA”
is
hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:
“One-Year
MTA:
The
index applicable to the Mortgage Rates for the Mortgage Loans and to the Class
2-A1 Certificates and is equal to (i) with respect to the first Accrual Period,
One-Year MTA shall equal the Initial One-Month MTA Rate and (ii) with respect
to
each subsequent Accrual Period, a per annum rate equal to the twelve-month
moving average monthly yield on United States Treasury Securities adjusted
to a
constant maturity of one year, as published by the Federal Reserve Board in
the
Federal Reserve Statistical Release 'Selected Interest Rates (H.15)', determined
by averaging the monthly yields for the most recently available twelve months.
The One-Year MTA figure used for each interest rate adjustment date will be
the
One-Year MTA figure published by Bloomberg during the first week of the related
Accrual Period. In the event that One-Year MTA becomes unavailable or is
otherwise unpublished, the Master Servicer will select a comparable alternative
index in accordance with the method described in the Swap
Agreement.”
