THE SERVICER AND THE SUBSERVICER
SECTION 2.01. Appointment of the Subservicer; Direction to Trustee.
Pursuant to the Pooling Agreements, the Servicer and the Trusts hereby appoint
the Subservicer to perform certain of the Servicer's servicing obligations under
the Pooling Agreements as set forth in Section 2.02 hereof, which appointment
the Subservicer hereby accepts. The Subservicer agrees to perform the
obligations set forth in Section 2.02 hereof in accordance with the servicing
standards set forth in the Pooling Agreements. The Subservicer undertakes no
obligations of the Servicer under the Pooling Agreements other than those
expressly set forth in Section 2.02 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall
relieve the Servicer of its obligations under the Pooling Agreements or in any
way limit such obligations.
The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute and deliver this
Agreement on behalf of each Trust.
SECTION 2.02. Obligations of the Subservicer.
(a) The Subservicer hereby agrees to advance, until such advancing
obligation terminates pursuant to Section 4.01(a) hereof, to the Trustee on
behalf of the Trusts, on a Trust-by-Trust basis, on each Monthly Remittance
Date, an amount (the "Subservicer Advance") equal to the Delinquency Advance (if
any) for each Trust for such Monthly Remittance Date, provided that, in no event
shall the Subservicer be required to advance on any Monthly Remittance Date
aggregate Subservicer Advances for all Trusts in excess of $85,000,000, less the
amount of any outstanding unreimbursed Subservicer Advances. In the event that
the aggregate Subservicer Advances which Subservicer makes on any Monthly
Remittance Date are less than the aggregate Delinquency Advances required to be
made to the Trusts on that Monthly Remittance Date under the Pooling Agreements,
then the Subservicer shall allocate the Subservicer Advances among the Trusts
pro rata to the Delinquency Advances for each Trust, and the difference between
the Subservicer Advance and the total Delinquency Advance shall be advanced to
the Trust by the Servicer as a Delinquency Advance. The parties hereto agree
that if the Servicer is not required to advance any portion of a Delinquency
Advance as set forth in the relevant sections of the Pooling Agreements, then
the Subservicer shall likewise not be required to make any Subservicer Advance
with respect thereto.
(b) No later than Noon on the Business Day preceding each Monthly
Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Subservicer and the Trustee a
notice (the "Subservicer Advance Notice"), in the form of Exhibit I hereto,
setting forth the amount of the Subservicer Advance, if any, due on such Monthly
Remittance Date.

SECTION 2.03. Subservicing Fee; Reimbursement for Subservicer Advances;
Priority.
(a) As compensation for the rendering of the services specified herein, the
Subservicer shall be entitled to receive a subservicing fee (the "Subservicing
Fee") from each Trust. The Subservicing Fee for any period shall equal the
product of (i) LIBOR plus 000 xxxxx xxxxxx, (xx) 0/000, (xxx) the number of days
in the period, and (iv) the average amount of unreimbursed Subservicer Advances
during the period. In no event shall the Subservicing Fee payable to the
Subservicer for any month exceed the Servicing Fee payable to the Servicer. The
amount of any Subservicer Fee paid to the Subservicer shall reduce,
dollar-for-dollar, the amount of the Servicing Fee payable to the Servicer.
(b) (i) The Servicer collects principal, interest and certain fees on the
Mortgage Loans, as agent for and on behalf of the Trusts pursuant to and in
accordance with the Pooling Agreements. The portion of these collections that is
available, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Pooling
Agreements, for the reimbursement of Delinquency Advances and the payment of the
Servicing Fee is referred to herein as the "Reimbursement Available Funds." The
Reimbursement Available Funds are owned by, and are the property of, the related
Trusts.
(ii) The Servicer agrees that it shall have no claim against the
Trusts to receive or retain any portion of the reimbursement for Subservicer
Advances. The Subservicer acknowledges that the Servicer, in paying the
Subservicing Fee and such reimbursement amounts to the Subservicer, is paying
such amounts on behalf of the Trusts only, solely from funds and assets of the
Trust, and is not liable to the Subservicer to pay any such amounts from its own
funds. The parties hereto agree that the Servicer shall be acting in the
capacity as agent of the Trusts when it performs its collection duties in
accordance with the Pooling Agreements and remittance duties hereunder.
(c) On each Business Day, the Subservicer shall be paid, by remittance by
the Servicer acting as an agent of the Trusts, out of the Reimbursement
Available Funds, available on that day, an amount equal to any accrued but
unpaid Subservicing Fee through the end of the prior day. After payment of the
Subservicing Fee, the Servicer shall be paid, by remittance by the Servicer
acting as an agent of the Trusts, out of the Reimbursement Available Funds an
amount equal to any accrued but unpaid Servicing Fee. The excess of the
Subservicer Fee due on any Business Day over the amount of Subservicer Fee
actually paid on such Business Day shall be carried forward and shall be paid
first out of the Reimbursement Available Funds before any other amounts are paid
under this subsection on each Business Day thereafter until such carried-forward
amounts are paid in full.
(d) On each Business Day, following the payment of the Subservicing Fee and
the Servicing Fee, the remaining amount, if any, of available Reimbursement
Available Funds shall be used to reimburse the Subservicer, by remittance by the
Servicer acting as an agent of the Trusts, for Subservicer Advances made by the
Subservicer and the Servicer for Delinquency Advances made by the Servicer
through the prior day. Prior to the termination pursuant to Section 4.01(a) of
the Subservicer's obligation to advance, the remaining Reimbursement Available
Funds shall be reimbursed to the Subservicer and the Servicer in the proportion
that the outstanding unreimbursed
4
Subservicer Advances made by the Subservicer bear to the outstanding
unreimbursed Delinquency Advances made by the Servicer. After the Subservicer's
obligations to advance have been terminated pursuant to Section 4.01(a) hereof,
all remaining Reimbursement Available Funds shall first be used to reimburse the
Subservicer for outstanding unreimbursed Subservicer Advances.
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto
agree that the sum of (i) the Subservicing Fee paid to the Subservicer, plus
(ii) the Servicing Fee paid to the Servicer, shall never exceed the Servicing
Fee which would otherwise be payable under the terms of the Pooling Agreements,
if the effect of this Agreement were not taken into account. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that the sum of (i)
any reimbursement for Subservicer Advances made by the Subservicer, plus (ii)
any reimbursement for Delinquency Advances made by the Servicer, shall never
exceed the reimbursement for Delinquency Advances which would otherwise be
payable under the terms of the Pooling Agreements, if the effect of this
Agreement were not taken into account.

obligation to make Subservicer Advances upon five days notice to each of the
other parties hereto and the related Certificate Insurers.
(b) Notwithstanding any termination of the Subservicer's advancing

to it in respect of unpaid Subservicing Fees and unreimbursed Subservicer
Advances, as calculated in and provided by Article II hereof until such amounts
have been paid in full.
SECTION 4.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Subservicer. The Subservicer
may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person
resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Subservicer shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Subservicer, shall be the

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION
SECTION 5.01. Limitation on Liability of the Subservicer; Indemnification.
(a) The Subservicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Subservicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima
facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters
arising thereunder. The Subservicer and any director, officer, employee or agent
of the Subservicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Servicer
against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal
action relating to this Agreement or the Pooling Agreements, other than any
loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder.
(b) To the extent that the Subservicer incurs any loss, liability or
expense arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Servicer hereby
assigns to the Subservicer the Servicer's right to indemnification from the
Trust Estate pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Pooling Agreements; provided,
however, that in the event the Servicer seeks indemnification pursuant to
Section 8.05 of the Pooling Agreements for itself from the Trust Estate, the
Subservicer shall be indemnified pursuant to clause (a) hereof.
(c) The Subservicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in,
prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is directly related to
its duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any
expense or liability; provided, however, that the Subservicer may in its
discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable
with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.
In such event, pursuant to clause (b) above, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities
of either the Servicer or the Trust Estate. In the case of such reimbursement
from the Trust Estate, the Subservicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
therefor only from the amounts otherwise distributable on the Class R
Certificates as and to the extent provided in Section 8.05 of the Pooling
Agreements, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the
Class R Certificateholders to receive any such amount.
SECTION 5.02. Indemnification of the Trustee. The Trustee and any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Servicer against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection

Agreements in any way that would affect the rights or obligations of the

amendment to the Pooling Agreements, then this Agreement shall be deemed to

"Right") under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any Right preclude any other or further exercise
of the same or of any other Right, nor shall any waiver of any Right with

any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and

parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action, suit or

suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto hereby waive and agree not to
assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise in any such suit, action or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of

forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that the
related documents or the subject matter thereof may not be litigated in or by
such courts.
SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably
waives all right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim

Agreement or any of the other transaction documents require judicial
interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same

document is
11
