payable by the Master Servicer, the Trustee and/or the
Depositor as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of the Master Servicer, the Trustee and/or the
Depositor in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the

shall, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust
Agreement (i) succeed to and assume all of the Servicer's
responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this
Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor meeting the eligibility
requirements of this Agreement, and which shall succeed to all
rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement with the
termination of the Servicer's responsibilities, duties and
liabilities under this Agreement. Any successor to the
Servicer that is not at that time a Servicer of other mortgage
loans for the Trust Fund shall be subject to the approval of
the Master Servicer, Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings Inc., the
Trustee and each Rating Agency (as such term is defined in the
Trust Agreement). Unless the successor servicer is at that
time a servicer of other mortgage loans for the Trust Fund,
each Rating Agency must deliver to the Trustee a letter to the
effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a
qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current
rating of any of the Certificates. In connection with such
appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or Xxxxxx
Brothers Holdings Inc., as applicable, may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of
payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall
agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be
in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement.
In the event that the Servicer's duties, responsibilities and
liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant
to the aforementioned sections, the Servicer shall discharge
such duties and responsibilities during the period from the
date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the
effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and
prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this
Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might
impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of its
successor. The resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant
to the aforementioned sections shall not become effective
until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section
12.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 4.01
and 4.02 and the remedies available to the Trust Fund under
Section 4.03 shall be applicable to the Servicer
notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the
Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.
A-9
Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event
longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity,
the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the
successor entity any and all documents and other instruments,
place in such successor's possession all Servicing Files, and
do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and
the Master Servicer, as applicable, and such successor in
effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities
and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing
responsibilities to the successor Servicer, including without
limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration
by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited
by the Servicer to the Account or any Escrow Account or
thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Any successor appointed as provided herein shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer
and the Master Servicer an instrument (i) accepting such
appointment, wherein the successor shall make an assumption of
the due and punctual performance and observance of each
covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the
Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties,
responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer,
with like effect as if originally named as a party to this
Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 8.05,
10.01, 11.01 or 11.02 shall not affect any claims that the
Master Servicer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer
arising out of the Servicer's actions or failure to act prior
to any such termination or resignation.
The Servicer shall deliver within three (3) Business
Days of the appointment of a successor Servicer the funds in
the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan
Documents and related documents and statements held by it
hereunder to the successor Servicer and the Servicer shall
account for all funds and shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be
required to more fully and definitively vest in the successor
all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations
and liabilities of the Servicer.
Upon a successor's acceptance of appointment as such,
the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and Master Servicer of
such appointment in accordance with the notice procedures set
forth herein.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
transfer of servicing hereunder (whether as a result of
termination or removal of the Servicer or resignation of the
Servicer or otherwise), including, without limitation, the
costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or any other Person
in appointing a successor servicer, or of the Master Servicer
in assuming the responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder, or
of transferring the Servicing Files and the other necessary
data to the successor servicer shall be paid by the
terminated, removed or resigning Servicer from its own funds
without reimbursement.

Servicer, the Trustee, their respective officers or directors
and any such controlling person may become subject under the
Act or otherwise, as and when such losses, claims, expenses,
