COMPLIANCE
WITH REGULATION AB
Section
2.01. Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.
The
Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article
II
of this Reg AB Addendum is to facilitate compliance by the Purchaser and any
Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and regulations
of the Commission and that the provisions of this Reg AB Addendum shall be
applicable to all Mortgage Loans included in a Securitization Transaction
closing on or after January 1, 2006, regardless whether the Mortgage Loans
were
purchased by the Purchaser from the Company prior to the date
hereof. Although Regulation AB is applicable by its terms only to
offerings of asset-backed securities that are registered under the Securities
Act, the Company acknowledges that investors in privately offered securities
may
require that the Purchaser or any Depositor provide comparable disclosure in
unregistered offerings. References in this Agreement to compliance
with Regulation AB include provision of comparable disclosure in private
offerings.
Neither
the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall exercise its right to request delivery
of
information or other performance under these provisions other than in good
faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (or
the
provision in a private offering of disclosure comparable to that required under
the Securities Act). The Company acknowledges that interpretations of
the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to
interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among
participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or
otherwise, and agrees to comply with reasonable requests made by the Purchaser
or any Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these
provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation
AB. In connection with any Securitization Transaction, the Company
shall cooperate with the Purchaser to deliver to the Purchaser (including any
of
its assignees or designees) and any Depositor, any and all statements, reports,
certifications, records and any other information necessary in the good faith
determination of the Purchaser or any Depositor to permit the Purchaser or
such
Depositor to
3
comply
with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating
to
the Company, any Subservicer, any Third-Party Originator and the Mortgage Loans,
or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by the Purchaser
or
any Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.
The
Purchaser and the Company also acknowledge and agree Section 2.02(a)(i)-(v),
Section 2.03(c), (e) and (f), Section 2.04, Section 2.05 and Section 2.06 of
this Reg AB Addendum shall only be applicable with respect to any Mortgage
Loan
if the Company (or Subservicer, if any) services such Mortgage Loan following
the closing date of a related Securitization Transaction. The
Purchaser and the Company also acknowledge and agree that this Reg AB Addendum
is intended to supplement the terms of the Agreement and, to the extent
inconsistent, the rights and obligations under the Agreement shall continue
to
apply with respect to any Reconstitution (as defined in the
Agreement) that is not covered by the definition of “Securitization
Transaction” in this Reg AB Addendum; provided, however, that the requirement to
provide an accountants’ report pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Agreement shall
be deemed satisfied with respect to any Reconstitution that occurs prior to,
on
or following the date hereof by providing an accountants’ attestation that
satisfies the requirements of Section 2.05(a)(ii) of this Reg AB
Addendum.
For
purposes of this Reg AB Addendum, the term “Purchaser” shall refer to Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxx Mortgage Capital Inc. and its successors in interest and
assigns. In addition, any notice or request that must be “in
writing” or “written” may be made by electronic mail.
The
Purchaser shall cooperate with the Company by providing timely notice of
requests for information under these provisions and by reasonably limiting
such
requests to information necessary, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, to
comply with Regulation AB.
Section
2.02. Additional Representations and Warranties of the
Company.

Company shall be deemed to represent to the Purchaser and to any Depositor,

Act (pursuant to Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002) on behalf of

by such Subcontractor under Section 2.05, in each case as and when required
to
be delivered.

any untrue statement of a material fact contained or alleged to be contained
in
any information, report, certification, accountants’ letter or other material
provided in written or electronic form under this Article II by or on behalf
of
the Company, or provided under this Article II by or on behalf of any

in the Company Information a material fact required to be stated in the Company
Information or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided,
by
way of clarification, that clause (B) of this paragraph shall be construed
solely by reference to the Company Information and not to any other information
communicated in connection with a sale or purchase of securities, without regard
to whether the Company Information or any portion thereof is presented together
with or separately from such other information;
(ii) any
breach by the Company under this Article II, including particularly any failure
by the Company, any Subservicer, any Subcontractor or any Third-Party Originator
to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants’ letter or other

by
the Company to identify pursuant to Section 2.06(b) any Subcontractor
“participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of

the
extent that
13
such
breach is not cured by such closing date, or any breach by the Company of a
representation or warranty in a writing furnished pursuant to Section 2.02(b)

the extent made as of a date subsequent to such closing date; or
(iv) negligence,
bad faith or willful
misconduct of the Company in connection with its performance under this Article
II.
If
the
indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold
harmless an Indemnified Party, then the Company agrees that it shall contribute
to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of any
losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and
related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses incurred by
such
Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Company, any
Subservicer, any Subcontractor or any Third-Party Originator on the
other.
In
the
case of any failure of performance described in clause (a)(ii) of this Section,
the Company shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser, any Depositor, as

Securitization Transaction, for all costs reasonably incurred by each such
party
in order to obtain the information, report, certification, accountants’ letter
or other material not delivered as required by the Company, any Subservicer,
any
Subcontractor or any Third-Party Originator.
This
indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the

failure by the Company, any Subservicer, any Subcontractor or any Third-Party
Originator to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants’
letter or other material when and as required under this Article II, or any
breach by the Company of a representation or warranty set forth in Section
2.02(a) or in a writing furnished pursuant to Section 2.02(b) and made as of
a
date prior to the closing date of the related Securitization Transaction, to
the
extent that such breach is not cured by such closing date, or any breach by
the
Company of a representation or warranty in a writing furnished pursuant to
Section 2.02(b) to the extent made as of a date subsequent to such closing
date,
shall, except as provided in clause (ii) of this paragraph, immediately and
automatically, without notice or grace period, constitute an Event of Default
with respect to the Company under the Agreement and any applicable
Reconstitution Agreement, and shall entitle the Purchaser or Depositor, as
applicable, in its sole discretion to terminate the rights and obligations
of
the Company as servicer under the Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution
Agreement without payment (notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any
applicable Reconstitution Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to
the
Company (and if the Company is servicing any of the Mortgage Loans in a
Securitization Transaction, appoint a successor servicer reasonably acceptable

shall be given effect.

information, report, certification or accountants’ letter when and as required
under Section 2.04 or 2.05, including (except as provided below) any failure
by
the Company to identify pursuant to Section 2.06(b) any Subcontractor
“participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, which continues unremedied for ten calendar days after the date
on which such information, report, certification or accountants’ letter was
required to be delivered shall constitute an Event of Default with respect
to
the Company under the Agreement and any applicable Reconstitution Agreement,
and
shall entitle the Purchaser or Depositor, as applicable, in its sole discretion
to terminate the rights and obligations of the Company as servicer under the
Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement without payment
(notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation
to the Company; provided that to the extent that any provision of the Agreement
and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement expressly provides for the
survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of the Company
as servicer, such provision shall be given effect.
Neither
the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall be entitled to terminate the rights and
obligations of the Company pursuant to this subparagraph (b)(ii) if a failure
of
the Company to identify a Subcontractor “participating in the servicing
function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable
solely to the role or functions of such Subcontractor with respect to mortgage
loans other than the Mortgage Loans.
(iii) The
Company shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser (or any designee of the
Purchaser, such as a master servicer) and any Depositor, as applicable, for
all
reasonable expenses incurred by the Purchaser (or such designee) or such
Depositor, as such are incurred, in connection with the termination of the
Company as servicer and the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage Loans to
a
successor servicer. The provisions of this paragraph shall not limit
whatever rights the Purchaser or any Depositor may have under other provisions
of the Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement or otherwise,
whether in equity or at law, such as an action for damages, specific performance
or injunctive relief.
