PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
As provided herein, the Trust Administrator shall elect that the Trust Fund be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising two real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative, “Subsidiary REMIC” and “Master REMIC”). Each Class of Certificates (other than the Class AR and Class AR-L Certificates, the Exchangeable Certificates and the Exchangeable REMIC Certificates) and each Class of Uncertificated REMIC Interests represents ownership of a regular interest in the Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class AR Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest in the Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class AR-L Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest in the Subsidiary REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Master REMIC shall hold as its assets the Class PP Reserve Fund and the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in the Subsidiary REMIC, other than the Class LT1-R Interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Subsidiary REMIC. The Subsidiary REMIC shall hold as its assets the Mortgage Loans and all collections and accounts related thereto. 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 following the third anniversary of the scheduled maturity date of the Mortgage Loan having the latest scheduled maturity date as of the Cut-off Date.
Subsidiary REMIC
The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation, interest rate, and initial principal amount for each uncertificated REMIC interest in the Subsidiary REMIC:

This interest has an initial principal balance equal to the class principal balance of its Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Certificates other than any interest-only certificates.
(3)
This interest shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Net WAC.

The Class LT1-R Interest represents the sole class of residual interest in the Subsidiary REMIC. The Class AR-L Certificate represents beneficial ownership interest of the Class LT1-R Interest.

This interest shall also be entitled to receive Assigned Prepayment Premiums payable to the Class PP Certificates.
On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall allocate interest (in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of interest distributable on such Distribution Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans) to the Interests in the Subsidiary REMIC at the rates shown above, pro rata, based on the amount of interest accrued on each such Interest for the related Interest Accrual Period.
On each Distribution Date, principal collections and realized losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to each Subsidiary REMIC Interest in accordance with the respective amounts of principal collections and realized losses with respect to such Mortgage Loans allocated to any Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Certificates for such Subsidiary REMIC Interest.

(8)
The Class AR-L Certificates shall represent beneficial ownership of the LT1-R Interest.

The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Master REMIC as cash flow on a REMIC regular interest, without creating any shortfall—actual or potential (other than for credit losses) to any REMIC regular interest. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention the Trust Administrator shall resolve ambiguities to accomplish such result and shall to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention.

Neither the Trustee, to the extent directed or (in the case of a failure to act) not directed by the Trust Administrator, nor the Holders of the Residual Certificates shall take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause the Trust Fund to take) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon a REMIC (including, but not limited to, the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the Trust Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax.

For purposes of this Section 2.07(g), a tax is imposed following the final and unappealable determination under the Code of the amount of such tax and written notice thereof by the Tax Matters Person to the party to be charged.
The failure of the related Servicer to promptly deposit in the Certificate Account any amount of such tax shall be an Event of Default, as provided in Section 8.01(b).

(i)
Following the Startup Day, none of any Servicer, the Trustee (which will act only at the direction of the Trust Administrator or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) or the Trust Administrator shall accept any contributions of assets to any REMIC created hereunder unless (subject to Section 2.05) such Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in a REMIC will not cause that REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or subject that REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(j)
None of any Servicer, the Trustee (which will act only at the direction of the Trust Administrator or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) or the Trust Administrator shall (subject to Section 2.05) enter into any arrangement by which a REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit such REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(m)
In order to enable the Trust Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided to the Trust Administrator, within ten days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trust Administrator determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon any and all such information and data in the performance of its duties set forth herein.

For purposes of the information reported in the monthly statement to certificateholders prepared by the Trust Administrator, a Mortgage Loan is considered to be delinquent when a payment due on any Due Date remains unpaid as of the close of business on the next following monthly Due Date. The determination as to whether a Mortgage Loan falls into this category is made as of the close of business on the last business day of each month. For example, a Mortgage Loan due for September 1 at the close of business on October 31 would be described as 30 to 59 days delinquent in the November trust and static pool reporting.

The Certificates, other than the Uncertificated REMIC Interests, shall be in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibits A through H hereto, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Agreement or as may in the reasonable judgment of the Trust Administrator or the Depositor be necessary, appropriate or convenient to comply, or facilitate compliance, with applicable laws, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange on which any of such Certificates may be listed, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof.
Subject to Section 11.02 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trust Administrator 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 (i) such Holder has so notified the Trust Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold (A) a Notional Amount Certificate, (B) 100% of the Class Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates or (C) Certificates of any Class with aggregate principal Denominations of not less than $1,000,000 or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing in the Certificate Register.
The definitive Certificates shall be printed, typewritten, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which any of the Certificates may be listed, all as determined by the officers executing such Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof.
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 which must be in excess of the applicable minimum denomination) and aggregate denominations per Class set forth in the Preliminary Statement.
The definitive Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trust Administrator by a Responsible Officer. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust Administrator shall bind the Trust Administrator, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of 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 there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication executed by the Trust Administrator by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trust Administrator on a continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate transfers.

In the event that none of an Investment Letter, a Rule 144A Letter, a Regulation S Letter or an Opinion of Counsel referenced in (ii) above are furnished, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Trust Administrator by the transferee’s acceptance of a Private Certificate by any beneficial owner who purchases an interest in such Certificate in book-entry form. The Trust Administrator shall cooperate with the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably request 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 Trust Administrator, the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer and each Servicer 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.
(f)
(i) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the Trust Administrator shall have received in accordance with Exhibit N-1, Exhibit N-2, Exhibit N-3 or Exhibit O, as applicable, either (i) a representation letter from the transferee of such Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, to the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement subject to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a person using the assets of any such plan or other retirement arrangement (“Plan”), which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Trust Administrator or the Trust Fund, (ii) if the purchaser is an insurance company and the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance company which 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 purchaser and holding of such Certificates are covered under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) in the case of any such Certificate presented for registration in the name of a Plan, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trust Administrator to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Certificate will not result in prohibited transactions under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Modification Oversight Agent, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Servicers or any other servicers to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of such parties or the Trust Fund. In the event the representations referred to in the preceding sentence are not furnished, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Trust Administrator by the transferee’s acceptance of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by any beneficial owner who purchases an interest in such Certificate in book-entry form. In the event that a representation is violated, or any attempt to transfer an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to a Plan is attempted without the delivery to the Trust Administrator of the Opinion of Counsel described above, the attempted transfer or acquisition of such Certificate shall be void and of no effect;
(ii)
The following legend shall appear on each ERISA-Restricted Certificate:
PURSUANT TO SECTION 6.02(f) OF THE AGREEMENT, AN ERISA-RESTRICTED CERTIFICATE OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN MAY ONLY BE TRANSFERRED IF THE TRANSFEREE DELIVERS TO THE TRUSTEE AND THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR (I) A REPRESENTATION LETTER TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFEREE IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR ARRANGEMENT SUBJECT TO SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR A PERSON ACQUIRING SUCH CERTIFICATE FOR, ON BEHALF OF OR WITH THE ASSETS OF SUCH A PLAN OR ARRANGEMENT (“BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR”) OR (II) IF THE CERTIFICATE IS THE SUBJECT OF AN ERISA-QUALIFYING UNDERWRITING AND THE PURCHASER IS AN INSURANCE COMPANY, A REPRESENTATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN OR (III) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN. IN THE EVENT THE REPRESENTATIONS REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ARE NOT FURNISHED, SUCH REPRESENTATION SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE TRUSTEE AND THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR BY THE TRANSFEREE’S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE, OR BY ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER WHO PURCHASES AN INTEREST IN THIS CERTIFICATE IN BOOK-ENTRY FORM. IN THE EVENT THAT A REPRESENTATION IS VIOLATED, OR ANY ATTEMPT TO TRANSFER THIS CERTIFICATE TO A BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR IS ATTEMPTED WITHOUT THE DELIVERY TO THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR OF THE OPINION OF COUNSEL DESCRIBED ABOVE, THE ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OR ACQUISITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE VOID AND OF NO EFFECT.
(g)
Additional restrictions on transfers of the Residual Certificates to Disqualified Organizations are set forth below:
(i)
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 to have irrevocably authorized the Trust Administrator or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(1)
Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate shall be other than a Disqualified Organization and shall promptly notify the Trust Administrator of any change or impending change in its status as other than a Disqualified Organization.
(2)
In connection with any proposed transfer of any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to a U.S. Person, the Trust Administrator shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the transfer of a Residual Certificate until its receipt of (1) an affidavit and agreement (a “Transferee Affidavit and Agreement” attached hereto as Exhibit O) from the proposed transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, representing and warranting, among other things, that it is not a non-U.S. Person, that such transferee is other than a Disqualified Organization, that it is not acquiring its ownership interest in a Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization, that for so long as it retains its ownership interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain other than a Disqualified Organization, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 6.02(g) and agrees to be bound by them, and (2) a certificate, attached hereto as Exhibit P, from the Holder wishing to transfer a Residual Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, representing and warranting, among other things, that no purpose of the proposed transfer is to allow such Holder to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
(3)
Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed transferee under clause (B) above, if the Trust Administrator has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not other than a Disqualified Organization, no transfer of an ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed transferee shall be effected.
(4) Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate agrees, by holding or acquiring such ownership interest, to require a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement from the other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its ownership interest and to provide a certificate to the Trust Administrator in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P.
(ii)
The Trust Administrator shall register the transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the Transferee Affidavit and Agreement, a certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Trust Administrator as a condition to such registration.
(iii)
(A) If any Disqualified Organization shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Holder that was other than a Disqualified Organization shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such transfer of such Residual Certificate. If any non-U.S. Person shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Holder that is a U.S. Person shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of the transfer to such non-U.S. Person of such Residual Certificate. If a transfer of a Residual Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then the last preceding Holder that was other than a Disqualified Organization shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trust Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 6.02(g) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.
(B)
If any purported transferee of a Residual Certificate shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 6.02(g) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Depositor shall have the right, without notice to the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Depositor on such terms as the Depositor may choose. Such purported transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver a Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Depositor. Such purchaser may be the Depositor itself or any affiliate of the Depositor. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, shall be remitted by the Depositor to such purported transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Depositor, and the Depositor shall not be liable to any Person having an ownership interest or a purported ownership interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(iv)
The Master Servicer and each Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Administrator, shall make available, upon written request from the Trust Administrator, all information reasonably available to it that is necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the transfer of an ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization, including the information regarding “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate required to be provided to the Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860D-1(b)(5), and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organizations described in Section 1381 of the Code having as among its record holders at any time any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be required by the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer from such Person.
(v)
The provisions of this Section 6.02(g) set forth prior to this Section (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated by the Depositor, provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trust Administrator the following:
(1)
written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current rating of the Certificates; and
(2)
a certificate of the Depositor stating that the Depositor has received an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, to the effect that such modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not create a risk that (i) the Trust Fund may be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person which is not other than a Disqualified Organization or (2) a Certificateholder or another Person will be subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by the transfer of applicable Residual Certificate to a Person which is not other than a Disqualified Organization.
(vi)
The following legend shall appear on each Residual Certificate:
ANY RESALE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE ONLY IF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE PROVIDES A TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT TO THE SERVICER AND THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR THAT (1) SUCH TRANSFEREE IS NOT (A) THE UNITED STATES, ANY STATE OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT, ANY INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION, OR ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, (B) ANY ORGANIZATION (OTHER THAN A COOPERATIVE DESCRIBED IN SECTION 521 OF THE CODE) WHICH IS EXEMPT FROM THE TAX IMPOSED BY CHAPTER 1 OF THE CODE UNLESS SUCH ORGANIZATION IS SUBJECT TO THE TAX IMPOSED BY SECTION 511 OF THE CODE, (C) ANY ORGANIZATION DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1381(a)(2)(C) OF THE CODE (ANY SUCH PERSON DESCRIBED IN THE FOREGOING CLAUSES (A), (B), OR (C) BEING HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS A “DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION”), OR (D) AN AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION AND (2) NO PURPOSE OF SUCH TRANSFER IS TO ENABLE THE TRANSFEROR TO IMPEDE THE ASSESSMENT OR COLLECTION OF TAX. SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL INCLUDE CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AS TO THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE REGISTRATION IN THE CERTIFICATE REGISTER OF ANY TRANSFER, SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION OR AN AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION, SUCH REGISTRATION SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE OF NO LEGAL FORCE OR EFFECT WHATSOEVER AND SUCH PERSON SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE A CERTIFICATEHOLDER FOR ANY PURPOSE HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE RECEIPT OF DISTRIBUTIONS ON THIS CERTIFICATE. EACH HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.
(h)
The Trust Administrator shall have no liability to the Trust Fund arising from a transfer of any such Certificate in reliance upon a certification, ruling or Opinion of Counsel described in this Section 6.02; provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall not register the transfer of any Residual Certificate if it has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee does not meet the qualifications of a permitted Holder of a Residual Certificate as set forth in this Section 6.02.

SECTION 11.01
Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of all Mortgage Loans.
The obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Servicers, the Modification Oversight Agent, the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator created hereby with respect to the Trust Fund created hereby shall terminate upon the earlier of:
(A) the purchase by the Terminating Entity, at its election, of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any remaining Mortgage Loan which purchase right the Terminating Entity may exercise at its sole and exclusive election as of any Distribution Date (such applicable Distribution Date being herein referred to as the “Optional Termination Date”) on or after the date on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, at the time of the purchase is less than 10% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date; or
(B)
the later of (i) twelve months after the maturity of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund, (ii) the liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property and (iii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement; or
(C)
the purchase by the Auction Purchaser of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any remaining Mortgage Loan (the “Trust Collateral”) as described below.
In no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xx. Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, former Ambassador of the United States to Great Britain, living on the date of execution of this Agreement or (ii) the Distribution Date following the third anniversary of the scheduled maturity date of the Mortgage Loan having the latest scheduled maturity date as of the Cut-off Date.
The “Mortgage Loan Purchase Price” for any such Optional Termination shall be equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than in respect of REO Property) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the date to which such interest was paid or advanced at the sum of the applicable Mortgage Rate, to but not including the Due Date in the month of the final Distribution Date (or the Net Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan currently serviced by the entity exercising such Optional Termination) and (ii) with respect to any REO Property, the lesser of (x) the appraised value of any REO Property as determined by the higher of two appraisals completed by two independent appraisers selected by the Depositor at the expense of the Depositor and (y) the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, in each case and (iii) any remaining unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and unpaid Servicing Fees, other than any remaining unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and unpaid Servicing Fees, if any, due to the Terminating Entity, and other amounts payable to the Trustee and Trust Administrator (the sum of (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Par Value”) and (b) the Fair Market Value of all of the property of the Trust. The “Fair Market Value” shall be the fair market value of all of the property of the Trust subject to an Optional Termination, as agreed upon between the Terminating Entity and a majority of the holders of the Class AR-L Certificates; provided, however, that if the Terminating Entity and a majority of the holders of the Class AR-L Certificates do not agree upon the fair market value of all of such property of the Trust, the Terminating Entity, or an agent appointed by the Terminating Entity, shall solicit bids for all of such property of the Trust until it has received three bids, and the Fair Market Value shall be equal to the highest of such three bids. The Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Rating Agencies of election to purchase the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 11.01 and of the Optional Termination Date.
On any Distribution Date on or after the date on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of the purchase is less than 5% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (the “Auction Date”), the Trust Administrator shall solicit bids for the all of the Trust Collateral from at least three institutions that are regular purchasers and/or Seller in the secondary market of residential whole mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. If the Trust Administrator receives at least three bids for all of the Trust Collateral, and one of such bids is equal to or greater than the Par Value, the Trust Administrator shall sell all of the Trust Collateral to the highest bidder (the “Auction Purchaser”) at the price offered by the Auction Purchaser (the “Mortgage Loan Auction Price”). If the Trust Administrator receives less than three bids, or does not receive any bid that is equal to or greater than the Par Value, the Trust Administrator shall, on each six-month anniversary of the initial Auction Date, repeat these auction procedures until the Trust Administrator receives a bid that is equal to or greater than the Par Value, and sells all of the Trust Collateral to the Auction Purchaser at the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall not be required to repeat these auction procedures on any Distribution Date for any six-month anniversary of the initial Auction Date unless the Trust Administrator reasonably believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of receiving a bid in excess of the Par Value. The Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Rating Agencies and each Servicer that is servicing any of the Mortgage Loans of the sale of all of the Trust Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.01 (an “Auction Sale”) and of the Auction Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Auction Purchaser shall not be the Depositor or DLJMC or any of their respective affiliates.
SECTION 11.02
Determination of the Terminating Entity
(a)
If any Servicer intends to be the Terminating Entity, such party must give written notice to the Trust Administrator no later than twenty (20) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period. Upon receiving such notice, the Trust Administrator shall immediately request from DLJMC and DLJMC shall deliver no later than seventeen (17) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period a letter indicating whether or not DLJMC retains the servicing rights to any Mortgage Loan.
(b)
With respect to the purchase of the Mortgage Loans, the Trust Administrator shall determine the “Terminating Entity” as follows:
(i) DLJMC, if it is the owner of the servicing rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date;
(ii) SPS, if (a) DLJMC is not the owner of the servicing rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and (b) SPS is a Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and SPS has given notice to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 11.02(a) above;
(iii) the Majority Servicer on the Optional Termination Date, if (a) DLJMC is not the owner of the servicing rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and (b) SPS has not given notice to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 11.02(a) above.
(c)
No later than fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period, the Trust Administrator shall provide notice to each Servicer that is a servicer of any of the Mortgage Loans of the occurrence of the Optional Termination Notice Period and the identity of those parties who may be entitled to be the Terminating Entity.
SECTION 11.03
Procedure Upon Optional Termination or Auction Sale.
(a)
In case of any Optional Termination the Terminating Entity shall, no later than ten (10) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period notify the Trustee and Trust Administrator of such Optional Termination Date and of the applicable purchase price of the Mortgage Loans to be purchased. Upon the purchase by the Terminating Entity of any Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 11.01, the Trust Administrator shall notify each Servicer that is servicing any of such Mortgage Loans of such purchase.
(b)
Any purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Terminating Entity shall be made on an Optional Termination Date by deposit of the applicable purchase price into the Certificate Account, as applicable, before the Distribution Date on which such purchase is effected. Upon receipt by the Trust Administrator of an Officer’s Certificate of the Terminating Entity certifying as to the deposit of such purchase price into the Certificate Account, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator and each co-trust administrator and separate trust administrator, if any, then acting as such under this Agreement, shall, upon request and at the expense of the Terminating Entity execute and deliver all such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Terminating Entity to vest title in the Terminating Entity in the Mortgage Loans so purchased and shall transfer or deliver to the Terminating Entity the purchased Mortgage Loans. Any distributions on the Mortgage Loans which have been subject to an Optional Termination received by the Trust Administrator subsequent to (or with respect to any period subsequent to) the Optional Termination Date shall be promptly remitted by it to the Terminating Entity.
(c)
Any purchase of the Trust Collateral by the related Auction Purchaser shall be made on an Auction Date by receipt of the Trust Administrator of the related Mortgage Loan Auction Price from the Auction Purchaser, and deposit of the such Mortgage Loan Auction Price into the Certificate Account by the Trust Administrator before the Distribution Date on which such purchase is effected. Upon deposit of such purchase price into the Certificate Account, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator and each co-trust administrator and separate trust administrator, if any, then acting as such under this Agreement, shall, upon request and at the expense of the Auction Purchaser execute and deliver all such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Auction Purchaser to vest title in the Auction Purchaser in the Trust Collateral so purchased and shall transfer or deliver to the Auction Purchaser the purchased Trust Collateral.
(d)
Notice of the Distribution Date on which the Trust Administrator anticipates that the final distribution shall be made on a Class of Certificates (whether upon Optional Termination, Auction Sale or otherwise), shall be given promptly by the Trust Administrator by first class mail to Holders of the affected Certificates. Such notice shall be mailed no earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 10th day preceding the applicable Optional Termination Date, Auction Date or date of final distribution, as the case may be. Such notice shall specify (i) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the affected Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency therein designated, (ii) the amount of such final distribution and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, such distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency maintained for such purposes (the address of which shall be set forth in such notice).
(e)
In the event that any Certificateholders shall not surrender Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Trust Administrator shall give a second written notice to the remaining such Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trust Administrator 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 subject to the Trust Fund.
(f)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the occurrence of an Optional Termination or Auction Sale shall be subject to, and shall in no way adversely affect the right of Bank of America to continue servicing and collecting its Servicing Fee for any Bank of America Serviced Mortgage Loan that remains outstanding at the time of such Optional Termination.
SECTION 11.04
Additional Termination Requirements.
(a)
In the event the Terminating Entity exercises an Optional Termination pursuant to Section 11.01(A) or an Auction Sale pursuant to Section 11.01(C), the REMIC holding the Mortgage Loans shall be liquidated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee and the Trust Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure to comply with the requirements of this Section will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on a “prohibited transaction” of any REMIC, as described in Section 860F of the Code, or (ii) cause any REMIC formed hereby to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding:
(i)
within 90 days prior to the final Distribution Date set forth in the notice given by the Trust Administrator under Section 11.03, the Holder of the Class AR-L Certificates shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation of the Subsidiary REMIC; and
(ii)
at or after the time of adoption of any such plan of complete liquidation for the Subsidiary REMIC and at or prior to the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of such Subsidiary REMIC to the Terminating Entity for cash; provided, however, that in the event that a calendar quarter ends after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation but prior to the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall not sell any of the assets of such REMIC prior to the close of that calendar quarter.
(b)
[Reserved].
(c)
By its acceptance of a Residual Certificate, the Holder thereof hereby agrees to adopt such a plan of complete liquidation and to take such other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably required to liquidate and otherwise terminate the Master REMIC and the Subsidiary REMIC.
