The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed

The Class A-R Certificate will represent ownership of the sole class of
residual interest in the Lower Tier REMIC, the Middle Tier REMIC and the
Master REMIC. The Master REMIC will hold as assets the several classes of
uncertificated Middle Tier REMIC Interests (other than the Class MTR-A-R
Interest). The Middle Tier REMIC will hold as assets the several classes of
uncertificated Lower Tier REMIC Interests (other than the Class LTR-A-R
Interest). The Lower Tier REMIC will hold as assets all property of the Trust
Fund (other than the Corridor Contracts and the Corridor Contract Reserve
Fund). Each Middle Tier REMIC Interest (other than the Class MTR-A-R Interest)
is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Middle Tier REMIC and each
Lower Tier REMIC Interest (other than the Class LTR-A-R Interest) is hereby
designated as a regular interest in the Lower Tier REMIC . The latest possible

Interests are referred to as "Tracking Interests."
(2) This Class of Lower Tier REMIC Interest does not pay any interest.
(3) This Class of Lower Tier REMIC Interest does not pay any principal.

Specifically, for each related Distribution Date, this Class of Lower
Tier REMIC Interest is entitled to interest accruals on each Non-Discount
Mortgage Loan in excess of an Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of 6.00% per
annum.
(5) This Class of Lower Tier REMIC Interest is entitled to receive on each

Non-Discount Mortgage Loans in the corresponding Loan Group.
Specifically, for each related Distribution Date, this Class of Lower
Tier REMIC Interest is entitled to interest accruals on each Non-Discount
Mortgage Loan in excess of an Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of 5.50% per
annum.
(6) The Class LTR-A-R Lower Tier REMIC Interest is the sole class of residual
interest in the Lower Tier REMIC. It does not pay any interest or
principal.
On each Distribution Date, the Available Funds shall be distributed
with respect to the the Lower Tier REMIC Interests in the following manner:
4
(1) Interest. Interest is to be distributed with respect to each Lower Tier
REMIC Interest at the rates, or according to the formulas, described
above.
(2) Initial Allocations of Realized Losses and Principal.
(a) The Trustee shall first allocate the Realized Losses on
the Group 1 Mortgage Loans (including any reductions in
previously allocated Realized Losses on the Group 1
Mortgage Loans attributable to any related Subsequent
Recoveries), and distribute the principal on the Group
1 Mortgage Loans between the LTR- PO-1 Interest and the
LTR-1 Tracking Interests in the same manner that such
amounts are allocated to or distributed between (a) the
Class PO-1 Component of the Class PO Certificates and
(b) the remaining Group 1 Senior Certificates and the
Assumed Balance of the Class Certificate Balance of
each Class of Subordinated Certificates related to the
Group 1 Mortgage Loans.
(b) The Trustee shall first allocate the Realized Losses on
the Group 2 Mortgage Loans (including any reductions in
previously allocated Realized Losses on the Group 2
Mortgage Loans attributable to any related Subsequent
Recoveries), and distribute the principal on the Group
2 Mortgage Loans between the Class LTR-PO-2 Interest
and the LTR-2 Tracking Interests in the same manner
that such amounts are allocated to or distributed
between (a) the Class PO-2 Component of the Class PO
Certificates and (b) the remaining Group 2 Senior
Certificates and the Assumed Balance of the Class
Certificate Balance of each Class of Subordinated
Certificates related to the Group 2 Mortgage Loans.
(3) Subsequent Allocations. Amounts allocated to the Tracking Interests of
each Group in accordance with Paragraph 2, above, shall be further
allocated as described below.
(4) Principal, if no Cross-Over Situation Exists. If no Cross-Over Situation
exists with respect to any Class of Tracking Interests, Principal Amounts
allocated with respect to each Loan Group's Tracking Interests in
accordance with Paragraph 2, shall be further allocated: first to cause
the Loan Group's corresponding Class A and Class B Tracking Interests to
equal, respectively, 0.90% of the Subordinated Portion and 0.10% of the
Subordinated Portion; and second to the Loan Group's corresponding Class
C Tracking Interest;
(5) Principal, if a Cross-Over Situation Exists. If a Cross-Over Situation
exists with respect to the Class A and Class B Tracking Interests:
(a) If the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding
Class A and Class B Tracking Interests is less than the
Subordinate Pass-Through Rate, Principal Relocation
Payments will be made proportionately to the
outstanding Class A Tracking Interests prior to any
other principal distributions from each such Loan
Group.
(b) If the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding
Class A and Class B Tracking Interests is greater than
the Subordinate Pass-Through Rate, Principal Relocation
Payments will be made proportionately to the
outstanding Class B Tracking Interests prior to any
other principal distributions from each such Loan
Group.
In each case, Principal Relocation Payments will be made so as to
cause the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding Class A and Class B
Tracking Interests to equal the Subordinate Pass-Through Rate. With respect to
each Loan Group, if (and to the extent that) the sum of (a) the principal
payments
5
received during the Due Period (as adjusted for amounts allocated to the
related Class PO Component) and (b) the Realized Losses (as adjusted for
amounts allocated to the related Class PO Component), are insufficient to make
the necessary reductions of principal on the Class A and Class B Tracking
Interests, then interest will be added to the Loan Group's Class C Tracking
Interest.
(c) Unless required to achieve the Calculation Rate, the
outstanding aggregate Class A and Class B Tracking
Interests for all Loan Groups will not be reduced below
1 percent of the excess of (i) the aggregate
outstanding Principal Balances of all Loan Groups (as
adjusted for amounts allocated to the related Class PO
Component) as of the end of any Due Period (reduced by
principal prepayments received after the Due Period
that are to to be distributed on the Disribution Date
related to the Due Period) over (ii) the aggregate
Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Certificates
for all Loan Groups as of the related Distribution Date
(after taking into account distributions of principal
on such Distribution Date).
If (and to the extent that) the limitation in paragraph (c) prevents
the distribution of principal to the Class A and Class B Tracking Interests of
a Loan Group, and if the Loan Group's Class C Tracking Interest has already
been reduced to zero, then the excess principal from that Loan Group (as
adjusted for amounts allocated to the related Class PO Component) will be paid
to the Class C Tracking Interests of the other Loan Groups the aggregate Class
A and Class B Tracking Interests of which are less than one percent of the
Subordinated Portion. If the Loan Group corresponding to the Class C Tracking
Interest that receives such payment has a weighted average Adjusted Net
Mortgage Rate below the weighted average Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of the

SECTION 2.01. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
(a) Each Seller, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the
Depositor, without recourse, all its respective right, title and interest in
and to the related Mortgage Loans, including all interest and principal
received or receivable by such Seller on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans
after the Cut-off Date and all interest and principal payments on the related
Mortgage Loans received prior to the Cut-off Date in respect of installments
of interest and principal due thereafter, but not including payments of
principal and interest due and payable on such Mortgage Loans on or before the
Cut-off Date. On or prior to the Closing Date, Countrywide shall deliver to
the Depositor or, at the Depositor's direction, to the Trustee or other
designee of the Depositor, the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan listed in
the Mortgage Loan Schedule (except that, in the case of the Delay Delivery
Mortgage Loans (which may include Countrywide Mortgage Loans, Park Granada
Mortgage Loans, Park Monaco Mortgage Loans and Park Sienna Mortgage Loans),
such delivery may take place within thirty (30) days following the Closing
Date). Such delivery of the Mortgage Files shall be made against payment by
the Depositor of the purchase price, previously agreed to by the Sellers and
Depositor, for the Mortgage Loans. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that does
not have a first payment date on or before the Due Date in the month of the
first Distribution Date, Countrywide shall deposit into the Distribution
Account on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date relating to the
first applicable Distribution Date, an amount equal to one month's interest at
the related Adjusted Mortgage Rate on the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of
such Mortgage Loan.
Countrywide further agrees (x) to cause The Bank of New York to enter
into the Corridor Contract Administration Agreement as Corridor Contract
Administrator and (y) to assign all of its right, title and interest in and to
the interest rate corridor transaction evidenced by the Confirmation, and to
cause all of its obligations in respect of such transaction to be assumed by,
the Corridor Contract Administrator, on the terms and conditions set forth in
the Corridor Contract Assignment Agreement.
(b) Immediately upon the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans referred to
in clause (a), the Depositor sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and
otherwise conveys to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
without recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to
the Trust Fund together with the Depositor's right to require each Seller to
cure any breach of a representation or warranty made herein by such Seller or
to repurchase or substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance
herewith.
(c) In connection with the transfer and assignment set forth in
clause (b) above, the Depositor has delivered or caused to be delivered to the
Trustee (or, in the case of the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans, will deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days following the
Closing Date) for the benefit of the Certificateholders the following
documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:
(i) (A) the original Mortgage Note endorsed by manual or facsimile
signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order of
____________ without recourse," with all intervening endorsements showing
a complete chain of endorsement from the originator to the Person
endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such endorsement being sufficient to
transfer all right,
II-32
title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note); or
(B) with respect to any Lost Mortgage Note, a lost note
affidavit from Countrywide stating that the original Mortgage Note
was lost or destroyed, together with a copy of such Mortgage Note;
(ii) except as provided below and for each Mortgage Loan that is not
a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such
Mortgage certified by Countrywide as being a true and complete copy of
the Mortgage (or, in the case of a Mortgage for which the related
Mortgaged Property is located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, a true
copy of the Mortgage certified as such by the applicable notary) and in
the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage, noting the
presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loans and either language indicating
that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan
or if the Mortgage Loan was not a MOM Loan at origination, the original
Mortgage and the assignment thereof to MERS, with evidence of recording
indicated thereon, or a copy of the Mortgage certified by the public
recording office in which such Mortgage has been recorded;
(iii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage
Loan, a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage (which may be included
in a blanket assignment or assignments), together with, except as
provided below, all interim recorded assignments of such mortgage (each
such assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable
form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the
assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which the assignment relates);
provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been returned from the
applicable public recording office, such assignment of the Mortgage may
exclude the information to be provided by the recording office; provided,
further, that such assignment of Mortgage need not be delivered in the
case of a Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in
the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
(iv) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
written assurance or substitution agreement, if any;
(v) except as provided below, the original or duplicate original
lender's title policy or a printout of the electronic equivalent and all
riders thereto; and
(vi) in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the originals of the
following documents or instruments:
(A) The Coop Shares, together with a stock power in blank;
(B) The executed Security Agreement;
(C) The executed Proprietary Lease;
(D) The executed Recognition Agreement;
(E) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of
recording thereon which have been filed in all places required to
perfect the Seller's interest in the Coop Shares and the Proprietary
Lease; and
II-33
(F) The executed UCC-3 financing statements or other
appropriate UCC financing statements required by state law,
evidencing a complete and unbroken line from the mortgagee to the
Trustee with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form suitable
for recordation).
In addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS Mortgage
Loan, each Seller agrees that it will cause, at the Trustee's expense, the
MERS(R) System to indicate that the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the
Depositor have been assigned by that Seller to the Trustee in accordance with
this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or
deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance
with this Agreement) in such computer files the information required by the
MERS(R) System to identify the series of the Certificates issued in connection
with such Mortgage Loans. Each Seller further agrees that it will not, and
will not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it
will not, alter the information referenced in this paragraph with respect to
any Mortgage Loan sold by such Seller to the Depositor during the term of this
Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.
In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan the Depositor cannot deliver (a) the original recorded
Mortgage, (b) all interim recorded assignments or (c) the lender's title
policy (together with all riders thereto) satisfying the requirements of
clause (ii), (iii) or (v) above, respectively, concurrently with the execution
and delivery of this Agreement because such document or documents have not
been returned from the applicable public recording office in the case of
clause (ii) or (iii) above, or because the title policy has not been delivered
to either the Master Servicer or the Depositor by the applicable title insurer
in the case of clause (v) above, the Depositor shall promptly deliver to the
Trustee, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) above, such original Mortgage or
such interim assignment, as the case may be, with evidence of recording
indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from the public recording office, or a
copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant recording office, but
in no event shall any such delivery of the original Mortgage and each such
interim assignment or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the
relevant recording office, be made later than one year following the Closing
Date, or, in the case of clause (v) above, no later than 120 days following
the Closing Date; provided, however, in the event the Depositor is unable to
deliver by such date each Mortgage and each such interim assignment by reason
of the fact that any such documents have not been returned by the appropriate
recording office, or, in the case of each such interim assignment, because the
related Mortgage has not been returned by the appropriate recording office,
the Depositor shall deliver such documents to the Trustee as promptly as
possible upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within 720 days following the
Closing Date. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be forwarded to the
Trustee (a) from time to time additional original documents evidencing an
assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan and (b) any other documents
required to be delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to the
Trustee. In the event that the original Mortgage is not delivered and in
connection with the payment in full of the related Mortgage Loan and the
public recording office requires the presentation of a "lost instruments
affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent document, because only a copy of
the Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of satisfaction or
reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall execute and deliver or cause to be
executed and delivered such a document to the public recording office. In the
case where a public recording office retains the original recorded Mortgage or
in the case where a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a public recording
office, Countrywide shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of such Mortgage
certified by such public recording office to be a true and complete copy of
the original recorded Mortgage.
As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and
assignment, and in any event, within thirty (30) days thereafter, the Trustee
shall (i) as the assignee thereof, affix the following language to each
assignment of Mortgage: "CWMBS Series 2006-7, The Bank of New York, as
trustee", (ii) cause
II-34
such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate public
office for real property records and (iii) cause to be delivered for recording
in the appropriate public office for real property records the assignments of
the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with respect to any assignments of
Mortgage as to which the Trustee has not received the information required to
prepare such assignment in recordable form, the Trustee's obligation to do so
and to deliver the same for such recording shall be as soon as practicable
after receipt of such information and in any event within thirty (30) days
after receipt thereof and that the Trustee need not cause to be recorded any
assignment which relates to a Mortgage Loan (a) the Mortgaged Property and
Mortgage File relating to which are located in California or (b) in any other
jurisdiction (including Puerto Rico) under the laws of which in the opinion of
counsel the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the
Trustee's and the Certificateholders' interest in the related Mortgage Loan.
In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of
the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents to
the Trustee, will deposit in the Certificate Account the portion of such
payment that is required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant
to Section 3.05 hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans,
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna) shall either (i) deliver to the Depositor, or at the Depositor's
direction, to the Trustee or other designee of the Depositor the Mortgage File
as required pursuant to this Section 2.01 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage
Loan or (ii) either (A) substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan,
which substitution or repurchase shall be accomplished in the manner and
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 (treating each Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for purposes of such Section
2.03); provided, however, that if Countrywide fails to deliver a Mortgage File
for any Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the thirty (30) day period
provided in the prior sentence, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall use its best reasonable
efforts to effect a substitution, rather than a repurchase of, such Deleted
Mortgage Loan and provided further that the cure period provided for in
Section 2.02 or in Section 2.03 shall not apply to the initial delivery of the
Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but rather Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
shall have five (5) Business Days to cure such failure to deliver. At the end
of such thirty (30) day period the Trustee shall send a Delay Delivery
Certification for the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during such
thirty (30) day period in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02.
(d) Neither the Depositor nor the Trust will acquire or hold any
Mortgage Loan that would violate the representations made by Countrywide set
forth in clause (46) of Schedule III-A hereto.
SECTION 2.02. Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in
the Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1 and
declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents
delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it holds or will
hold such other assets as are included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the
exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The
Trustee acknowledges that it will maintain possession of the Mortgage Notes in
the State of California, unless otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies.
The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) an Initial Certification
in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1. Based on its review and
II-35
examination, and only as to the documents identified in such Initial
Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that such documents appear regular on
their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall be under no
duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine,
enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have
actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than
what they purport to be on their face.
On or about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the
Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
a Delay Delivery Certification with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a Final
Certification with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit H-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. If, in the course
of such review, the Trustee finds any document constituting a part of a
Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01, the
Trustee shall list such as an exception in the Final Certification; provided,
however that the Trustee shall not make any determination as to whether (i)
any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the
party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage
Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable form or is sufficient to effect
the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof under the mortgage to
which the assignment relates. Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of
Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall promptly correct or cure such
defect within 90 days from the date it was so notified of such defect and, if
Countrywide does not correct or cure such defect within such period,
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna) shall either (a) substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a
Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03, or (b)
purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from the date
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna) was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase Price of
such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such
substitution or purchase occur more than 540 days from the Closing Date,
except that if the substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
this provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents
by the appropriate recording office, and there is a dispute between either the
Master Servicer or Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and the Trustee over the location or
status of the recorded document, then such substitution or purchase shall
occur within 720 days from the Closing Date. The Trustee shall deliver written
notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing Date indicating
each Mortgage Loan (a) which has not been returned by the appropriate
recording office or (b) as to which there is a dispute as to location or
status of such Mortgage Loan. Such notice shall be delivered every 90 days
thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned to the Trustee. Any
such substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase pursuant to (b) above
shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof, if any, and any substitution pursuant
to (a) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the
Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit N. No
substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after the
Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage
Loan shall be deposited by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of
Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) in the Certificate Account on or
prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in
the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit
and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N hereto, the
Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada,
II-36
Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and shall execute and deliver at Countrywide's
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
request such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by Countrywide, in
each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in Countrywide (on
its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), or
its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing provisions Countrywide (on its own behalf
and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) repurchases a
Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall either
(i) cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in
recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) or its
designee and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the
MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and regulations or (ii) cause
MERS to designate on the MERS(R) System Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) or its designee as the
beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.
(b) [Reserved].
(c) The Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage
File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, upon the
execution or receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or
instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come into the possession of the
Master Servicer from time to time.
(d) It is understood and agreed that the respective obligations of
each Seller to substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan sold to the
Depositor by it which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01 above
shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the
Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder against that Seller.

Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such
representation or warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the
applicable representation or warranty.
With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, sold to the
Depositor by a Seller, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall deliver to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related
assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements as are
required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage
assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted to be made
in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Scheduled
Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of
substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the
related Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of
substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the monthly
payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter that
Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such
Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan
Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of
such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan
Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Substitute Mortgage Loan
or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and
the related Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) with respect
to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the
Certificate Account of the
II-38
amount required to be deposited therein in connection with such substitution
as described in the following paragraph, the Trustee shall release the
Mortgage File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to such
Deleted Mortgage Loan to the related Seller and shall execute and deliver at
such Seller's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna), in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest
title in that Seller, or its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted
Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.03.
For any month in which a Seller substitutes one or more Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer
will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of
all Substitute Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by that Seller as of the
date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
all Deleted Mortgage Loans repurchased by that Seller (after application of
the scheduled principal portion of the monthly payments due in the month of
substitution). The amount of such shortage (the "Substitution Adjustment
Amount") plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances
with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) on or before the Distribution Account
Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar
month during which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased
or replaced hereunder.
In the event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan,
the Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date
for the Distribution Date in the month following the month during which that
Seller became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan
and upon such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05 and receipt of a Request for Release in the
form of Exhibit N hereto, the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File
held for the benefit of the Certificateholders to such Person, and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse,
as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is understood and
agreed that the obligation under this Agreement of any Person to cure,
repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and
is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against such Persons respecting
such breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on
their behalf.
The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03
shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders.
SECTION 2.04. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to
the Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with
respect to each Mortgage Loan as of the date hereof or such other date set
forth herein that as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the
Mortgage Loans to it by each Seller, the Depositor had good title to the
Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, defenses or
counterclaims.
The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Trustee
all of its rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans including, without
limitation, the representations and warranties of each Seller made pursuant to
Section 2.03(a)(ii) hereof, together with all rights of the Depositor to
require each Seller to cure any breach thereof or to repurchase or substitute
for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement.
II-39
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to
the Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of any
of the foregoing representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04
(referred to herein as a "breach"), which breach materially and adversely
affects the interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating
Agency.
SECTION 2.05. Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
Substitutions.
(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 shall be made more than
90 days after the Closing Date unless Countrywide delivers to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of
either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect
that such substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on
"prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup
Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively,
or (ii) cause each REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
(b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, a Seller, the Master Servicer,
or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party
discovering such fact shall promptly (and in any event within five (5)
Business Days of discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties.
In connection therewith, the Trustee shall require Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), at its
option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(c) with
respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the
affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within
90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan for a
breach of representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03. The
Trustee shall reconvey to Countrywide the Mortgage Loan to be released
pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as
it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or
warranty contained in Section 2.03.
SECTION 2.06. Execution and Delivery of Certificates.
The Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the
Trust Fund and, concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has executed
and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in
authorized denominations evidencing directly or indirectly the entire
ownership of the Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and
exercise the rights referred to above for the benefit of all present and
future Holders of the Certificates and to perform the duties set forth in this
Agreement, to the end that the interests of the Holders of the Certificates
may be adequately and effectively protected.
SECTION 2.07. REMIC Matters.
The Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations and "latest
possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all interests
created hereby. The "Startup Day" for purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall
be the Closing Date. The "tax matters person" with respect to each REMIC
hereunder shall be the Trustee and the Trustee shall hold the Tax Matters
Person Certificate. Each REMIC's fiscal year shall be the calendar year.
II-40
SECTION 2.08. Covenants of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer hereby covenants to the Depositor and the Trustee
as follows:
(a) the Master Servicer shall comply in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of
the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy; and
no written information, certificate of an officer, statement furnished in
writing or written report delivered to the Depositor, any affiliate of the
Depositor or the Trustee and prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary to make such information, certificate,
statement or report not misleading.
II-41
ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION 3.01. Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.
For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
mortgage loan servicers. In connection with such servicing and administration,
the Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or
through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, subject to the terms
hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents,
(ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the
Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this
Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation
Proceeds (which, for the purpose of this Section, includes any Subsequent
Recoveries), and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the
ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan; provided that
the Master Servicer shall not take any action that is inconsistent with or
prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any
Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee and
the Certificateholders under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall
represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it
protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any
claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, and shall not make
or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage Loan which
would cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC or
result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d)
of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master
Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when the
Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders
or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of
partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments,
with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and with respect to the Mortgaged
Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer
shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents
requiring execution and delivery by either or both of them as are necessary or
appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer the
Mortgage Loans to the extent that the Master Servicer is not permitted to
execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon
receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such
documents and deliver them to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer further
is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the
Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be,
believes it appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on
the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage
Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of
assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or
re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the
Trustee and its successors and assigns.
In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the
Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for
the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from
related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06, and further
as provided in Section 3.08. The costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if
any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the
Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose
of
III-1
calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to
the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
SECTION 3.02. Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of
Subservicers.
(a) The Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
Mortgage Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a subservicing agreement; provided,
however, that such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related
subservicing agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans
in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to actions
taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans
include actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Master
Servicer. Notwithstanding the provisions of any subservicing agreement, any of
the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements
between the Master Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken
through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated
and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the
servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or
liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by
virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and
under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. All actions of each
Subservicer performed pursuant to the related subservicing agreement shall be
performed as an agent of the Master Servicer with the same force and effect as
if performed directly by the Master Servicer.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be
deemed to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect
to the Mortgage Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether
such payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Master Servicer.
SECTION 3.03. Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of
the Master Servicer.
The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations
of the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or
cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer
hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the
related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master
Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue
of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Trustee nor
the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or
failure to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor
be obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or
otherwise.
SECTION 3.04. Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer
be the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default
or termination by the Depositor), the Trustee or its successor shall thereupon
assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder
arising thereafter (except that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses
of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09 hereof or any acts or
omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer hereunder), (ii) obligated to
make Advances if it is prohibited from doing so by applicable law, (iii)
obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans
hereunder including, but not limited to, repurchases or substitutions of
Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof, (iv) responsible for
expenses of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03 or (v) deemed to have
made any representations and warranties of the Master Servicer hereunder). Any
such assumption shall be subject to Section 7.02
III-2
hereof. If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master
Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default or termination by the
Depositor), the Trustee or its successor shall succeed to any rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under each subservicing agreement.
The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents
and records relating to each subservicing agreement or substitute subservicing
agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an
accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the substitute
subservicing agreement to the assuming party.
SECTION 3.05. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate
Account; Distribution Account; the Supplemental Interest
Trust and the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
(a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance
with the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
servicers to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of
the Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this
Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance
Policy. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its
discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any Prepayment Charge or
penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii)
extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not
greater than 180 days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer cannot
extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final
payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In
the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on
the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01
during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of
such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangements. The Master Servicer shall not be required to institute or join
in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a
Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental
authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes
that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to
which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate
Account into which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited
no later than two Business Days after receipt (or, if the current long-term
credit rating of Countrywide is reduced below "A-" by S&P or Xxxxx, xx "X0" by
Xxxxx'x, the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily
basis within one Business Day of receipt), except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by
Subservicers or received by it in respect of Mortgage Loans subsequent to the
Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the following amounts
required to be deposited hereunder:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans,
including Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, net
of the Master Servicing Fee, Prepayment Interest Excess and any
lender-paid mortgage insurance premiums;
(iii) [reserved];
III-3
(iv) all Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation
Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair
of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures;
(v) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or
the Depositor pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses
on Permitted Investments for which it is responsible;
(vi) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.09(c) and in respect of net monthly rental income
from REO Property pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof;
(vii) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts;
(viii) all Advances made by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section
4.01; and
(ix) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.
In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to a
buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in addition to the
monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall cause
funds to be deposited into the Certificate Account in an amount required to
cause an amount of interest to be paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan
equal to the amount of interest that has accrued on such Mortgage Loan from
the preceding Due Date at the Mortgage Rate net of the related Master
Servicing Fee.
The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer
shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of Prepayment Charges,
late payment charges or assumption fees, if collected, need not be remitted by
the Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any
amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time withdraw or direct the
institution maintaining the Certificate Account to withdraw such amount from
the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by delivering written notice
thereof to the Trustee or such other institution maintaining the Certificate
Account which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate
Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to
all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited in the
Certificate Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders until
withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08.
(c) [Reserved].
(d) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Trustee shall, promptly upon
receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ix);
(ii) any amount deposited by the Master Servicer or the Depositor
pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on Permitted
Investments for which it is responsible; and
III-4
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not
required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw
such amount from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering an
Officer's Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in
error in the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution
Account shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until
disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with
Section 3.08. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals
from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Master Servicer.
(e) Each institution at which the Certificate Account or the
Distribution Account is maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed
in writing by the Master Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature
not later than (i) in the case of the Certificate Account the second Business
Day next preceding the related Distribution Account Deposit Date (except that
if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that
maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later
than the Business Day next preceding such Distribution Account Deposit Date)
and (ii) in the case of the Distribution Account, the Business Day next
preceding the Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is
an obligation of the institution that maintains such fund or account, then
such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date)
and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All
such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and gain net of any losses
realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Certificate
Account, or the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Master
Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly as
provided herein. The amount of any realized losses in the Certificate Account
or the Distribution Account incurred in any such account in respect of any
such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
Certificate Account or paid to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution
Account, as applicable. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity shall not be
liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment or
lack of investment of funds held in the Certificate Account or the
Distribution Account and made in accordance with this Section 3.05.
(f) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each
Seller, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the
location of the Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee
shall give notice to the Master Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and
the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Distribution
Account prior to any change thereof. The Supplemental Interest Trustee shall
give notice to the Master Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and the
Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Corridor Contract
Reserve Fund prior to any change thereof.
(g) [reserved].
(h) [reserved].
(i) On the Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate trust
(the "Supplemental Interest Trust"), the assets of which shall consist of the
Corridor Contract Reserve Fund and the Supplemental Interest Trustee's rights
and obligations under the Corridor Contract Administration Agreement. The
Supplemental Interest Trust shall be maintained by the Supplemental Interest
Trustee, who initially, shall be the Trustee.
On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trustee shall
establish and maintain in its name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of
the Covered Certificates, the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, and shall
deposit $1,000 therein upon receipt from or on behalf of the Depositor of such
amount. All funds on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be
held separate and apart from, and
III-5
shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including without limitation,
other moneys held by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
On each Distribution Date, the Supplemental Interest Trustee shall
deposit into the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund all amounts received in
respect of the Corridor Contracts for the related Interest Accrual Period. The
Supplemental Interest Trustee shall make withdrawals from the Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund to make distributions pursuant to Section 4.09
exclusively (other than as expressly provided for in Section 3.08).
Funds in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund may be invested in
Permitted Investments at the direction of Countrywide Securities Corporation,
which Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the first Distribution Date that follows the date of
such investment (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of
the institution that maintains the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, then such
Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and
shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. In the absence of such
written direction, all funds in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be
invested by the Supplemental Interest Trustee in The Bank of New York cash
reserves. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the
Supplemental Interest Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Covered
Certificates. Any net investment earnings on such amounts shall be retained
therein until withdrawn as provided in Section 3.08. Any losses incurred in
the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund in respect of any such investments shall be
charged against amounts on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund (or
such investments) immediately as realized. The Supplemental Interest Trustee
shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any
investment or lack of investment of funds held in the Corridor Contract
Reserve Fund and made in accordance with this Section 3.05. The Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund will not constitute an asset of the Trust Fund nor of
any REMIC created hereunder.
SECTION 3.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items;
Escrow Accounts.
(a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not
violative of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one
or more accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain therein
all collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master Servicer) for
the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or comparable
items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the
Master Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in
violation of applicable law.
(b) Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may
be made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to
reimburse the Master Servicer out of related collections for any payments made
pursuant to Sections 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and assessments and
insurance premiums) and 3.09 hereof (with respect to hazard insurance), to
refund to any Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay interest,
if required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, to
Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and terminate the
Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section
9.01 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be a part of the Trust Fund.
(c) The Master Servicer shall advance any payments referred to in
Section 3.06(a) that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors on the date when
the tax, premium or other cost for which such payment is intended is due, but
the Master Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the extent that
such advances, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, will be
recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation
Proceeds or otherwise.
III-6
SECTION 3.07. Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall afford each Seller, the Depositor and the
Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation regarding the
Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other matters
relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge, but
only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the office
designated by the Master Servicer.
Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will
provide to each Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner which is a savings
and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and reasonable
access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
sufficient to permit such Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner to comply
with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with
respect to investment in the Certificates; provided that the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder and/or
Certificate Owner for actual expenses incurred by the Master Servicer in
providing such reports and access.
SECTION 3.08. Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account, the
Distribution Account and the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
(a) The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from
the Certificate Account for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to the Master Servicer (to the extent not previously
retained by the Master Servicer) the servicing compensation to which it
is entitled pursuant to Section 3.14, and to pay to the Master Servicer,
as additional servicing compensation, earnings on or investment income
with respect to funds in or credited to the Certificate Account;
(ii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for
unreimbursed Advances made by it, such right of reimbursement pursuant to
this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the Mortgage
Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made;
(iii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for
any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made by it;
(iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer for Insured Expenses from the
related Insurance Proceeds;
(v) to reimburse the Master Servicer for (a) unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, the Master Servicer's right to reimbursement pursuant to this
clause (a) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts
received on such Mortgage Loan(s) which represent late recoveries of the
payments for which such advances were made pursuant to Section 3.01 or
Section 3.06 and (b) for unpaid Master Servicing Fees as provided in
Section 3.11 hereof;
(vi) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or
property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to
Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.11, all amounts received thereon after the date
of such purchase;
(vii) to reimburse the Sellers, the Master Servicer or the Depositor
for expenses incurred by any of them and reimbursable pursuant to Section
6.03 hereof;
III-7
(viii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Certificate Account
and not required to be deposited therein;
(ix) on or prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date, to
withdraw an amount equal to the sum of (a) the related Available Funds
and (b) the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and remit such amount
to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account; and
(x) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.
The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Certificate Account pursuant to such subclauses (i), (ii),
(iv), (v) and (vi). Prior to making any withdrawal from the Certificate
Account pursuant to subclause (iii), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount
of any previous Advance determined by the Master Servicer to be a
Nonrecoverable Advance and identifying the related Mortgage Loans(s), and
their respective portions of such Nonrecoverable Advance.
(b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution Account
for distributions to Certificateholders in the manner specified in this
Agreement (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any
taxes that it is authorized to withhold pursuant to the second to last
paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time
make withdrawals from the Distribution Account for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to itself the Trustee Fee for the related Distribution
Date;
(ii) to pay to the Master Servicer as additional servicing
compensation earnings on or investment income with respect to funds in
the Distribution Account;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Master Servicer any amount
deposited in the Distribution Account and not required to be deposited
therein;
(iv) to reimburse the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances made by
it pursuant to Section 4.01(b) hereof, such right of reimbursement
pursuant to this subclause (iv) being limited to (x) amounts received on
the related Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was
made and (y) amounts not otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.08(a)(ii) hereof;
(v) to reimburse the Trustee for any Nonrecoverable Advance
previously made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(b) hereof, such
right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (v) being limited to
amounts not otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section
3.08(a)(iii) hereof; and
(vi) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon
termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.
(c) The Supplemental Interest Trustee shall withdraw funds from the
Corridor Contract Reserve Fund for distribution to the Covered Certificates in
the manner specified in Section 4.09 (and to withhold from the amounts so
withdrawn the amount of any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to
the second to last paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the Supplemental
Interest Trustee
III-8
may from time to time make withdrawals from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund
for the following purposes:
(i) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Corridor Contract
Reserve Fund and not required to be deposited therein; and
(ii) to clear and terminate the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund upon
the earlier of (i) the reduction of the aggregate Class Certificate
Balance of the Covered Certificates to zero, and (ii) the termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
SECTION 3.09. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of Primary
Insurance Policies.
(a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each
Mortgage Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at
least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (y) the
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that
the proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor
and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each such policy of standard
hazard insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement that
contains, a standard mortgagee clause. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under any such policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the
restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts released to
the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
procedures) shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. Any cost incurred
by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the
purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or
remittances to the Trustee for their benefit, be added to the principal
balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage
Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of
late payments by the related Mortgagor or out of the proceeds of liquidation
of the Mortgage Loan or Subsequent Recoveries to the extent permitted by
Section 3.08 hereof. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other
additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on
property acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property is located at the
time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special
flood hazard area and such area is participating in the national flood
insurance program, the Master Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be
maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be
in an amount equal to the least of (i) the outstanding principal balance of
the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the replacement value of the improvements
which are part of such Mortgaged Property, and (iii) the maximum amount of
such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national
flood insurance program.
(b) The Master Servicer shall not take any action which would result
in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss
which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been covered
thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such
Primary Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance
of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the
replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy
is maintained with a Qualified Insurer.
Except with respect to any Lender PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer shall not be required to maintain any Primary Insurance Policy (i)
with respect to any Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio less than or
equal to 80% as of any date of determination or, based on a new appraisal, the
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan represents 80% or less of the new
appraised value or (ii) if maintaining such Primary Insurance Policy is
prohibited by applicable law. With respect to the Lender
III-9
PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall maintain the Primary Insurance
Policy for the life of such Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise provided for in
the related Mortgage Note or prohibited by law.
The Master Servicer agrees to effect the timely payment of the
premiums on each Primary Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise
recoverable shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related
proceeds of liquidation and Subsequent Recoveries.
(c) In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the
Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of itself, the
Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary
Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as
shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies
respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account.
SECTION 3.10. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, when any property
subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer
shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such conveyance, enforce any
due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent
permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but only to the
extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage
under any Required Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master
Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a Mortgage
Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or
is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the
Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee
under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required under such
Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the event that
the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such due-on-sale
clause, or if coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be adversely
affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Master
Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.10(b), to take or enter into an
assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such
property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable
state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the Mortgage
Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Master Servicer
enters such agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance Policies. The
Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also authorized with the prior
approval of the insurers under any Required Insurance Policies to enter into a
substitution of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted
as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default under this
Section by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Master Servicer
reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing, for any reason
whatsoever.
(b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.10(a) hereof, in any case in which
a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such
Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the
Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required
releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to
the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute
the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to
be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note
or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out
the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any
applicable laws
III-10
regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such
Person. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the
Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition, the substitute Mortgagor and the
Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance
with its underwriting standards as then in effect. Together with each such
substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument delivered to the
Trustee for execution by it, the Master Servicer shall deliver an Officer's
Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the requirements of
this subsection have been met in connection therewith. The Master Servicer
shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement
has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the original of such
substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of the original shall
be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be
considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other
documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected by
the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.
SECTION 3.11. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase
of Certain Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose
upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such
of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer
shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or
advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities and meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required
Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be
required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards
the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such
restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it through the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan and Subsequent Recoveries (respecting which it shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Certificate Account). The Master
Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it
in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to
reimbursement thereof from the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan
and Subsequent Recoveries with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, as
provided in the definition of Liquidation Proceeds. If the Master Servicer has
knowledge that a Mortgaged Property which the Master Servicer is contemplating
acquiring in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is located within a
1 mile radius of any site listed in the Expenditure Plan for the Hazardous
Substance Clean Up Bond Act of 1984 or other site with environmental or
hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer will,
prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such risks and only take
action in accordance with its established environmental review procedures.
With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The
Trustee's name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the
Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Master Servicer
shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and the Trustee's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to its
efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or
through an agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO
Property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality
where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and
protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any
part thereof, as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the
Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The
Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a
III-11
statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the
aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in connection with
the maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable
the Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions.
The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be
deposited in the Certificate Account no later than the close of business on
each Determination Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the tax reporting
and withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect
to foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H
of the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals
and any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to
the cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing
such tax and information returns as may be required, in the form required, and
delivering the same to the Trustee for filing.
In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property as
soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds
thereof, but in no event later than three years after its acquisition by the
Trust Fund. In that event, the Trustee shall have been supplied with an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such
Mortgaged Property subsequent to a three-year period, if applicable, will not
result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of any REMIC
hereunder as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC hereunder
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding, the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property
(subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) after the
expiration of such three-year period. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be
rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the
production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or
pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC hereunder to the imposition of any federal,
state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property
under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the
imposition of any such taxes.
In the event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose
obligor is not a United States Person, as that term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code, in connection with any foreclosure or acquisition of
a deed in lieu of foreclosure (together, "foreclosure") in respect of such
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will cause compliance with the provisions
of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor thereto)
necessary to assure that no withholding tax obligation arises with respect to
the proceeds of such foreclosure except to the extent, if any, that proceeds
of such foreclosure are required to be remitted to the obligors on such
Mortgage Loan.
The decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted
Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Master Servicer that
the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of
bringing such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any REO
Properties, net of reimbursement to the Master Servicer for expenses incurred
(including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and
net of unreimbursed Master Servicing Fees, Advances and Servicing Advances,
shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the related
defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such Mortgage Loans
were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in
this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the
related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Certificate Account. To
the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in excess of
the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the
related
III-12
Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar month, such
excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of principal of the
related Mortgage Loan.
The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of
priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and Master Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Master
Servicer or the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances; third, to reimburse the
Certificate Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.08(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to accrued
and unpaid interest (to the extent no Advance has been made for such amount or
any such Advance has been reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO
Property, at the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the
month in which such amounts are required to be distributed; and fifth, as a
recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any, from the
liquidation of a Liquidated Mortgage Loan will be retained by the Master
Servicer as additional servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.14.
The Master Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to
purchase for its own account from the Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan which is
151 days or more delinquent at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided,
however, that the Master Servicer may only exercise this right on or before
the next to the last day of the calendar month in which such Mortgage Loan
became 151 days delinquent (such month, the "Eligible Repurchase Month");
provided further, that any such Mortgage Loan which becomes current but
thereafter becomes delinquent may be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant
to this Section in any ensuing Eligible Repurchase Month. The Purchase Price
for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account and the Trustee, upon receipt of a certificate from the
Master Servicer in the form of Exhibit N hereto, shall release or cause to be
released to the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan the related Mortgage File and
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared
by the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan, in each case without recourse, as
shall be necessary to vest in the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan any Mortgage
Loan released pursuant hereto and the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan shall
succeed to all the Trustee's right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage
Loan and all security and documents related thereto. Such assignment shall be
an assignment outright and not for security. The purchaser of such Mortgage
Loan shall thereupon own such Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents,
free of any further obligation to the Trustee or the Certificateholders with
respect thereto.
(b) Countrywide may agree to a modification of any Mortgage Loan (the
"Modified Mortgage Loan") if (i) the modification is in lieu of a refinancing
and (ii) the Mortgage Rate on the Modified Mortgage Loan is approximately a
prevailing market rate for newly-originated mortgage loans having similar
terms and (iii) Countrywide purchases the Modified Mortgage Loan from the
Trust Fund as described below. Effective immediately after the modification,
and, in any event, on the same Business Day on which the modification occurs,
all interest of the Trustee in the Modified Mortgage Loan shall automatically
be deemed transferred and assigned to Countrywide and all benefits and burdens
of ownership thereof, including the right to accrued interest thereon from the
date of modification and the risk of default thereon, shall pass to
Countrywide. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee a
certification of a Servicing Officer to the effect that all requirements of
this paragraph have been satisfied with respect to the Modified Mortgage Loan.
For federal income tax purposes, the Trustee shall account for such purchase
as a prepayment in full of the Modified Mortgage Loan.
Countrywide shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Master
Servicer shall deposit the Purchase Price for any Modified Mortgage Loan in the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05 within one Business Day after the
purchase of the Modified Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of any such deposit signed
III-13
by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall release to the Master Servicer
for the benefit of Countrywide the related Mortgage File and shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case
without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in Countrywide any Modified
Mortgage Loan previously transferred and assigned pursuant hereto. Countrywide
covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund against any liability for any
"prohibited transaction" taxes and any related interest, additions, and
penalties imposed on the Trust Fund established hereunder as a result of any
modification of a Mortgage Loan effected pursuant to this subsection (b), any
holding of a Modified Mortgage Loan by the Trust Fund or any purchase of a
Modified Mortgage Loan by Countrywide (but such obligation shall not prevent
Countrywide or any other appropriate Person from in good faith contesting any
such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent Countrywide from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings). Countrywide shall have no right of reimbursement for any
amount paid pursuant to the foregoing indemnification, except to the extent
that the amount of any tax, interest, and penalties, together with interest
thereon, is refunded to the Trust Fund or Countrywide.
SECTION 3.12. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will immediately
notify the Trustee by delivering, or causing to be delivered a "Request for
Release" substantially in the form of Exhibit N. Upon receipt of such request,
the Trustee shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Master
Servicer, and the Trustee shall at the Master Servicer's direction execute and
deliver to the Master Servicer the request for reconveyance, deed of
reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument
releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by the Master
Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. The Master Servicer is authorized to cause the removal
from the registration on the MERS System of such Mortgage and to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them,
any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full
release. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction
or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related Mortgagor. From
time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of
any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose, collection under any policy of
flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy, or for the
purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the
lien of the Mortgage or the making of any corrections to the Mortgage Note or
the Mortgage or any of the other documents included in the Mortgage File, the
Trustee shall, upon delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release in the
form of Exhibit M signed by a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage File to
the Master Servicer. Subject to the further limitations set forth below, the
Master Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or documents so released to be
returned to the Trustee when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no
longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof
are deposited in the Certificate Account, in which case the Master Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit N,
signed by a Servicing Officer.
If the Master Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure
proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Property as authorized by this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee, for signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or
any legal action brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce
any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or
otherwise available at law or in equity.
III-14
SECTION 3.13. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master
Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee as required by this Agreement all
documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to
the Trustee for any funds received by the Master Servicer or which otherwise
are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection
of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds and any
Subsequent Recoveries, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in
the Certificate Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on
behalf of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property
of the Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The
Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any
Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Certificate Account,
Distribution Account or any Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise are or
may become due or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy,
writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or
otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage File or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that
the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any
such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master
Servicer under this Agreement.
SECTION 3.14. Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Certificate Account an amount
equal to the Master Servicing Fee; provided, that the aggregate Master
Servicing Fee with respect to any Distribution Date shall be reduced (i) by an
amount equal to the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on all of
the Mortgage Loans, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date, but not to
exceed the Compensating Interest for such Distribution Date, and (ii) with
respect to the first Distribution Date, an amount equal to any amount to be
deposited into the Distribution Account by the Depositor pursuant to Section
2.01(a) and not so deposited.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of Excess Proceeds,
Prepayment Interest Excess, Prepayment Charges, assumption fees, late
payment charges and all income and gain net of any losses realized from
Permitted Investments on funds in the Certificate Account and Distribution
Account shall be retained by the Master Servicer to the extent not required to
be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof. The
Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its master servicing activities hereunder (including payment
of any premiums for hazard insurance and any Primary Insurance Policy and
maintenance of the other forms of insurance coverage required by this
Agreement) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as
specifically provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 3.15. Access to Certain Documentation.
The Master Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to
comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders and/or Certificate
Owners and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and such
other authorities, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
required by applicable regulations of the OTS and the FDIC. Such access shall
be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request
and during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master
Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Master
Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information
regarding the Mortgagors
III-15
and the failure of the Master Servicer to provide access as provided in this
Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this
Section.
SECTION 3.16. Annual Statement as to Compliance.
(a) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the
Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, commencing with its 2007 fiscal
year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (i) a
review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding calendar
year (or applicable portion thereof) and of the performance of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision
and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the
Master Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement in all
material respects throughout such year (or applicable portion thereof), or, if
there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material
respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and
status thereof.
(b) The Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to deliver to
the Depositor and the Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, commencing
with its 2007 fiscal year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the signer
thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of such Subservicer during the
preceding calendar year (or applicable portion thereof) and of the performance
of the Subservicer under the applicable Subservicing Agreement or primary
servicing agreement, has been made under such officer's supervision and (ii)
to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, such
Subservicer has fulfilled all its obligations under the applicable
Subservicing Agreement or primary servicing agreement, in all material
respects throughout such year (or applicable portion thereof), or, if there
has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof.
(c) The Trustee shall forward a copy of each such statement to each
Rating Agency.

SECTION 3.17. Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds.
The Master Servicer shall for so long as it acts as master servicer
under this Agreement, obtain and maintain in force (a) a policy or policies of
insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations
as Master Servicer hereunder and (b) a fidelity bond in respect of its
officers, employees and agents. Each such policy or policies and bond shall,
together, comply with the requirements from time to time of FNMA or FHLMC for
persons performing servicing for mortgage loans purchased by FNMA or FHLMC. In
the event that any such policy or bond ceases to be in effect, the Master
Servicer shall obtain a comparable replacement policy or bond from an insurer
or issuer, meeting the requirements set forth above as of the date of such
replacement.
SECTION 3.18. The Corridor Contracts.
Countrywide shall cause The Bank of New York to enter into the
Corridor Contract Administration Agreement and shall assign all of its right,
title and interest in and to the interest rate corridor transactions evidenced
by the Corridor Contracts to, and shall cause all of its obligations in
respect of such transactions to be assumed by, the Corridor Contract
Administrator, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Corridor Contract
Assignment Agreement. The Supplemental Interest Trustee's rights to receive
the proceeds of the Corridor Contracts as provided in the Corridor Contract
Administration Agreement will be assets of the Supplemental Interest Trust but
will not be assets of the Trust Fund or any REMIC. The Supplemental Interest
Trustee shall deposit any amounts received from time to time with respect to
any Corridor Contract into the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund. The Master
Servicer shall deposit any amounts received on behalf of the Supplemental
Interest Trustee from time to time with respect to any Corridor Contract into
the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
No later than two Business Days following each Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall provide the Corridor Contract Administrator with information
regarding the Class Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates related
to the Corridor Contract after all distributions on such Distribution Date.
The Corridor Contract Administrator shall, upon receipt of direction
from Countrywide, terminate a Corridor Contract upon the occurrence of certain
events of default or termination events to the extent specified thereunder.
Upon any such termination, the Corridor Contract Counterparty will be
obligated to pay the Corridor Contract Administrator an amount in respect of
such termination, and the amount distributable to the Supplemental Interest
Trust pursuant to the Corridor Contract Administration Agreement and received
by the Supplemental Interest Trustee for the benefit of the Supplemental
Interest Trust in respect of such termination shall be deposited and held in
the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund and applied on future Distribution Dates to
pay any related Yield Supplement Amount on the related Class(es) of Covered
Certificates. Any amounts remaining in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund in
respect of a Corridor Contract, after the earlier of (i) the date on which the
aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the related Covered Certificates has been
reduced to zero and (ii) the applicable Corridor Contract Scheduled
Termination Date, will be distributed to Countrywide.

ARTICLE IV
DISTRIBUTIONS AND
ADVANCES BY THE MASTER SERVICER
SECTION 4.01. Advances.
(a) The Master Servicer shall determine on or before each Master
Servicer Advance Date whether it is required to make an Advance pursuant to
the definition thereof. If the Master Servicer determines it is required to
make an Advance, it shall, on or before the Master Servicer Advance Date,
either (i) deposit into the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance
or (ii) make an appropriate entry in its records relating to the Certificate
Account that any Amount Held for Future Distribution for the applicable Loan
Group has been used by the Master Servicer in discharge of its obligation to
make any such Advance. Any funds so applied shall be replaced by the Master
Servicer by deposit in the Certificate Account no later than the close of
business on the next Master Servicer Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed from the Certificate Account for all Advances of
its own funds made pursuant to this Section as provided in Section 3.08. The
obligation to make Advances with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue
if such Mortgage Loan has been foreclosed or otherwise terminated and the
related Mortgaged Property has not been liquidated.
(b) If the Master Servicer determines that it will be unable to
comply with its obligation to make the Advances as and when described in the
second sentence of Section 4.01(a), it shall use its best efforts to give
written notice thereof to the Trustee (each such notice a "Trustee Advance
Notice"; and such notice may be given by telecopy), not later than 3:00 P.M.,
New York time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Master
Servicer Advance Date, specifying the amount that it will be unable to deposit
(each such amount an "Advance Deficiency") and certifying that such Advance
Deficiency constitutes an Advance hereunder and is not a Nonrecoverable
Advance. If the Trustee receives a Trustee Advance Notice on or before 3:30
P.M., New York time on a Master Servicer Advance Date, the Trustee shall, not
later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the related Distribution Date, deposit
in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the Advance Deficiency
identified in such Trustee Advance Notice unless it is prohibited from so
doing by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not
be required to make such deposit if the Trustee shall have received written
notification from the Master Servicer that the Master Servicer has deposited
or caused to be deposited in the Certificate Account an amount equal to such
Advance Deficiency. All Advances made by the Trustee pursuant to this Section
4.01(b) shall accrue interest on behalf of the Trustee at the Trustee Advance
Rate from and including the date such Advances are made to but excluding the
date of repayment, with such interest being an obligation of the Master
Servicer and not the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer shall reimburse the
Trustee for the amount of any Advance made by the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 4.01(b) together with accrued interest, not later than the fifth day
following the related Master Servicer Advance Date. In the event that the
Master Servicer does not reimburse the Trustee in accordance with the
requirements of the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to immediately (a) terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with
Section 7.01 and (b) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.04,
assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.
(c) The Master Servicer shall, not later than the close of business
on the second Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date,
deliver to the Trustee a report (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee) that indicates (i) the Mortgage Loans with respect to which
the Master Servicer has determined that the related Scheduled Payments should
be advanced and (ii) the amount of the related Scheduled Payments. The Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on
IV-1
the related Master Servicer Advance Date an Officer's Certificate of a
Servicing Officer indicating the amount of any proposed Advance determined by
the Master Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
SECTION 4.02. Priorities of Distribution.
(a) (1) With respect to Available Funds for Loan Group 1, on each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw such Available Funds from the

Amount, up to an amount not to exceed the amount calculated pursuant to
clause (A) of the definition of the
IV-2
Subordinated Principal Distribution Amount actually received or advanced
for such Distribution Date (with such amount to be allocated first from
amounts calculated pursuant to (A)(i) and (ii) then (iii) of the
definition of Subordinated Principal Distribution Amount).
(2) With respect to the Available Funds for Loan Group 2 on each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw such Available Funds from the
Distribution Account and apply such funds to distributions on the specified
Classes of Group 2 Senior Certificates in the following order and priority,
and in each case, to the extent of Available Funds remaining:
(i) [Reserved];
(ii) concurrently, to each interest-bearing Class of Group 2 Senior
Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the related Class
Optimal Interest Distribution Amount, any shortfall being allocated among
such Classes in proportion to the amount of the Class Optimal Interest
Distribution Amount with respect to the Group 2 Certificates that would
have been distributed in the absence of such shortfall, provided that
prior to an Accrual Termination Date, the related Accrual Amount shall be
distributed as provided in Section 4.02(a)(2);
(iii) [Reserved]
(iv) to each Class of Group 2 Senior Certificates, concurrently as
follows:
(x) to the Class PO-2 Component an amount allocable to the
related PO Formula Principal Amount, until the outstanding Component
Balance thereof is reduced to zero; and
(y) the related Non-PO Formula Principal Amount, up to the
amount of the Senior Principal Distribution Amount for Loan Group 2
for such Distribution Date, in the following order of priority:
(1) up to $1,000 on each Distribution Date, to the Class
2-A-1 Certificates, until its Class Certificate Balance is
reduced to zero;
(2) up to $333,300 on each Distribution Date, to the Class
2-A-3 Certificates, until its Class Certificate Balance is
reduced to zero; and
(3) sequentially, to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-3 and
Class 2-A-4 Certificates, in that order, until their
respective Class Certificate Balances are reduced to zero;
and
(v) to the Class PO-2 Component, any related Class PO Deferred
Amount, up to an amount not to exceed the amount calculated pursuant to
clause (A) of the definition of the Subordinated Principal Distribution
Amount for Loan Group 2 actually received or advanced for such
Distribution Date (with such amount to be allocated first from amounts
calculated pursuant to (A)(i) and (ii) then (iii) of the definition of
Subordinated Principal Distribution Amount).
(3) On each Distribution Date, after making the distributions
described in Section 4.02(a)(1) and Section 4.02(a)(2) above, remaining
Available Funds from each Loan Group will be distributed to the Senior
Certificates to the extent provided in Section 4.05 hereof.
(4) On each Distribution Date, Available Funds from both Loan Groups
remaining after making the distributions described in Sections 4.02(a)(1),
4.02(a)(2) and 4.02(a)(3) above, will be
IV-3
distributed to the Subordinated Certificates and the Class A-R Certificates in
the following order and priority and, in each case, to the extent of such
funds remaining:
(A) to the Class M-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(B) to the Class M-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
(C) to the Class M-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(D) to the Class M-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
(E) to the Class B-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(F) to the Class B-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
(G) to the Class B-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(H) to the Class B-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
(I) to the Class B-3 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(J) to the Class B-3 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
(K) to the Class B-4 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(L) to the Class B-4 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero;
IV-4
(M) to the Class B-5 Certificates, an amount allocable to
interest equal to the Class Optimal Interest Distribution
Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;
(N) to the Class B-5 Certificates, an amount allocable to
principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balance
thereof is reduced to zero; and
(O) to the Class A-R Certificates, any remaining funds in
the Trust Fund.
On any Distribution Date, amounts distributed in respect of Class PO
Deferred Amounts will not reduce the Component Balance of the related Class PO
Component.
On any Distribution Date, to the extent the Amount Available for Senior
Principal for a Loan Group is insufficient to make the full distribution
required to be made pursuant to the applicable subclauses (iv)(x) above, (A)
the amount distributable on the related Class PO Component in respect of
principal pursuant to such subclause (iv)(x), shall be equal to the product of
(1) the Amount Available for Senior Principal for such Loan Group and (2) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the related PO Formula Principal Amount
and the denominator of which is the sum of such PO Formula Principal Amount
and the applicable Senior Principal Distribution Amount and (B) the amount
distributable on the related Senior Certificates, other than the related Class
PO Component, in respect of principal pursuant to such clause (iv)(y) shall be
equal to the product of (1) such Amount Available for Senior Principal and (2)
a fraction, the numerator of which is the applicable Senior Principal
Distribution Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of such Senior
Principal Distribution Amount and the related PO Formula Principal Amount.
(b) On each Distribution Date prior to and including the applicable
Accrual Termination Date with respect to each Class or Component of Accrual
Certificates, the Accrual Amount for such Class or Component for such
Distribution Date shall not (except as provided in the second to last sentence
in this paragraph) be distributed as interest with respect to such Class or
Component of Accrual Certificates, but shall instead be added to the related
Class Certificate Balance of such Class on the related Distribution Date. With
respect to any Distribution Date prior to and including the applicable Accrual
Termination Date on which principal payments on any Class or Component of
Accrual Certificates are distributed pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(1)(iv)(y) or
Section 4.02(a)(2)(iv)(y), as applicable, the related Accrual Amount shall be
deemed to have been added on such Distribution Date to the related Class
Certificate Balance or Component Balance (and included in the amount
distributable on the related Class or Classes or Component of Accretion
Directed Certificates pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(1)(iii) or Section
4.02(a)(2)(iii), as applicable, for such Distribution Date) and the related
distribution thereon shall be deemed to have been applied concurrently towards
the reduction of all or a portion of the amount so added and, to the extent of
any excess, towards the reduction of the Class Certificate Balance or
Component Balance of such Class or Component of Accrual Certificates
immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Notwithstanding any such
distribution, each such Class or Component shall continue to be a Class of
Accrual Certificates on each subsequent Distribution Date until the applicable
Accrual Termination Date.
(c) On each Distribution Date on or after the Senior Credit Support
Depletion Date, notwithstanding the allocation and priority set forth in
Sections 4.02(a)(1)(iv)(y) and 4.02(a)(2)(iv)(y), the portion of Available
Funds for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 available to be distributed as
principal of the Senior Certificates (other than the Class PO-1 Certificates)
for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2, shall be distributed concurrently, as
principal, on such Classes, pro rata, on the basis of their respective Class
Certificate Balances, until the Class Certificate Balances thereof are reduced
to zero.
IV-5
(d) On each Distribution Date, the amount referred to in clause (i)
of the definition of Class Optimal Interest Distribution Amount for each Class
of Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be reduced for each Class of
Senior Certificates of a Senior Certificate Group and each Class of
Subordinated Certificates by (i) the related Class' pro rata share of Net
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for such Loan Group based (x) with respect to a
Class of Senior Certificates, on the related Class Optimal Interest
Distribution Amount and (y) with respect to the Class of Subordinated
Certificates on or prior to a Senior Termination Date on the Assumed Interest
Amount and after such Senior Termination Date, the related Class' Class
Optimal Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, without
taking into account such Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, and (ii) the
related Class' Allocable Share of the interest portion of the related Debt
Service Reduction and each Relief Act Reduction for the Mortgage Loans in the
related Loan Group (or, after the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, any
Mortgage Loan) incurred during the calendar month preceding the month of such
Distribution Date.
(e) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation contained in Section
4.02(a)(4), if, on any Distribution Date, with respect to any Class of
Subordinated Certificates (other than the Subordinated Certificates then
outstanding with the highest priority of distribution), the sum of the related
Class Subordination Percentages of such Class and of all Classes of
Subordinated Certificates which have a higher numerical Class designation than
such Class (the "Applicable Credit Support Percentage") is less than the
Original Applicable Credit Support Percentage for such Class, no distribution
of Principal Prepayments will be made to any such Classes (the "Restricted
Classes") and the amount of such Principal Prepayments otherwise distributable
to the Restricted Classes shall be distributed to any Classes of Subordinated
Certificates having lower numerical Class designations than such Class, pro
rata, based on their respective Class Certificate Balances immediately prior
to such Distribution Date and shall be distributed in the sequential order
provided in Section 4.02(a)(4).
(f) If the amount of a Realized Loss on a Mortgage Loan in a Loan
Group has been reduced by application of Subsequent Recoveries with respect to
such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries will be applied
sequentially, in the order of payment priority, to increase the Class
Certificate Balance of each related Class of Certificates to which Realized
Losses have been allocated, but in each case by not more than the amount of
Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to
Section 4.04. Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any payment
in respect of the Class Optimal Interest Distribution Amount on the amount of
such increases for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date
on which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be applied pro rata to
the Certificate Balance of each Certificate of such Class.
SECTION 4.03. [Reserved].
SECTION 4.04. Allocation of Realized Losses.
(a) On or prior to each Determination Date, the Trustee shall
determine the total amount of Realized Losses with respect to the related
Distribution Date. For purposes of allocating losses to the Subordinated
Certificates, the Class M Certificates will be deemed to have a lower
numerical Class designation, and to be of a higher relative payment priority,
than any other Class of Subordinated Certificates.
Realized Losses with respect to any Distribution Date shall be
allocated as follows:
(i) the applicable PO Percentage of any Realized Loss on a Mortgage
Loan in a Loan Group shall be allocated to the related Class PO
Component, until the Component Balance thereof is reduced to zero; and
IV-6
(ii) the applicable Non-PO Percentage of any Realized Loss shall be
allocated first to the Subordinated Certificates in reverse order of
their respective numerical Class designations (beginning with the Class
of Subordinated Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical
Class designation) until the respective Class Certificate Balance of each
such Class is reduced to zero, and second to the Classes of Certificates
of the related Senior Certificate Group (other than any Notional Amount
Certificates, if applicable, and the related Class PO Component), pro
rata, on the basis of their respective Class Certificate Balances or, in
the case of any Class of Accrual Certificates or Accrual Component, on
the basis of the lesser of its respective Class Certificate Balance or
Component Balance, as applicable, and its respective initial Class
Certificate Balance or Component Balance, as applicable, in each case
immediately prior to the related Distribution Date, until the respective
Class Certificate Balance or Component Balance of each such Class or
Component is reduced to zero; provided, however, that the Non-PO
Percentage of any Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1
that would otherwise be allocable to the Class 1-A-5 Certificates will
instead be allocated to the Class 1-A-6 Certificates, until its Class
Certificate Balance is reduced to zero.
(b) The Class Certificate Balance of the Subordinated Certificates
then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall be reduced
on each Distribution Date by the sum of (i) the amount of any payments on the
Class PO Certificates in respect of Class PO Deferred Amounts and (ii) the
amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of
all outstanding Classes of Certificates (after giving effect to the
distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses and Class PO
Deferred Amounts on such Distribution Date) exceeds the Pool Stated Principal
Balance for the following Distribution Date and any amounts in the
Supplemental Loan Account as of that Distribution Date.
(c) Any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Certificates or any
reduction in the Class Certificate Balance of a Class of Certificates pursuant
to Section 4.04(a) above shall be allocated among the Certificates of such
Class in proportion to their respective Certificate Balances.
(d) Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Certificate or to any
Component or any reduction in the Certificate Balance or Component Balance of
a Certificate or Component, pursuant to Section 4.04(a) above shall be
accomplished by reducing the Certificate Balance or Component Balance thereof,
as applicable, immediately following the distributions made on the related
Distribution Date in accordance with the definition of "Certificate Balance"
or "Component Balance," as the case may be.
SECTION 4.05. Cross-Collateralization; Adjustments to Available
Funds.
(a) [Reserved].
(b) If on any Distribution Date the Class Certificate Balance of
Senior Certificates in a Certificate Group (other than the related Class PO
Component) is greater than the aggregate of the Non-PO Percentages of the
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group (the
"Undercollateralized Group"), then the Trustee shall reduce the Available
Funds of the other Loan Group that are not undercollateralized (the
"Overcollateralized Group"), as follows:
(1) to add to the Available Funds of the Undercollateralized Group an
amount equal to the Available Funds of the Overcollateralized Group
remaining after making distributions to the Senior Certificates of the
Overcollateralized Group on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.02; and
IV-7
(2) to the Senior Certificates, other than the related Class PO
Component, of the Undercollateralized Group, to the extent of the
principal portion of Available Funds of the Overcollateralized Group
remaining after making distributions to the Senior Certificates of the
Overcollateralized Group on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
4.02, until the Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Certificates,
other than the related Class PO Component, of such Undercollateralized
Group equals the aggregate of the Non-PO Percentages of the Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group.
SECTION 4.06. Monthly Statements to Certificateholders.
(a) Concurrently with each distribution on a Distribution Date, the
Trustee will forward by electronic delivery to each Rating Agency and make
available to Certificateholders on the Trustee's website
(xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx) a statement generally setting forth the
information contained in Exhibit T hereto.
(b) The Trustee's responsibility for disbursing the above information
to the Certificateholders is limited to the availability, timeliness and
accuracy of the information provided by the Master Servicer.
(c) On or before the fifth Business Day following the end of each
Prepayment Period (but in no event later than the third Business Day prior to
the related Distribution Date), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee (which delivery may be by electronic data transmission) a report in
substantially the form set forth as Schedule VI hereto.
(d) Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar
year, the Trustee shall cause to be furnished to each Person who at any time
during the calendar year was a Certificateholder, a statement containing the
information set forth in items (1), (2) and (7) on Exhibit T aggregated for
such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was
a Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have
been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall
be provided by the Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from
time to time in effect.
SECTION 4.07. Determination of Pass-Through Rates for COFI
Certificates.
The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of COFI Certificates for each
Interest Accrual Period after the initial Interest Accrual Period shall be
determined by the Trustee as provided below on the basis of the Index and the
applicable formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the COFI
Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary
Statement.
Except as provided below, with respect to each Interest Accrual
Period following the initial Interest Accrual Period, the Trustee shall not
later than two Business Days prior to such Interest Accrual Period but
following the publication of the applicable Index determine the Pass-Through
Rate at which interest shall accrue in respect of the COFI Certificates during
the related Interest Accrual Period.
Except as provided below, the Index to be used in determining the
respective Pass-Through Rates for the COFI Certificates for a particular
Interest Accrual Period shall be COFI for the second calendar month preceding
the Outside Reference Date for such Interest Accrual Period. If at the Outside
Reference Date for any Interest Accrual Period, COFI for the second calendar
month preceding such Outside Reference Date has not been published, the
Trustee shall use COFI for the third calendar month preceding such Outside
Reference Date. If COFI for neither the second nor third calendar months
preceding any Outside Reference Date has been published on or before the
related Outside Reference
IV-8
Date, the Index for such Interest Accrual Period and for all subsequent
Interest Accrual Periods shall be the National Cost of Funds Index for the
third calendar month preceding such Interest Accrual Period (or the fourth
preceding calendar month if such National Cost of Funds Index for the third
preceding calendar month has not been published by such Outside Reference
Date). In the event that the National Cost of Funds Index for neither the
third nor fourth calendar months preceding an Interest Accrual Period has been
published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, then for such
Interest Accrual Period and for each succeeding Interest Accrual Period, the
Index shall be LIBOR, determined in the manner set forth below.
With respect to any Interest Accrual Period for which the applicable
Index is LIBOR, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period will be established by
the Trustee on the related Interest Determination Date as provided in Section
4.08.
In determining LIBOR and any Pass-Through Rate for the COFI
Certificates or any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may conclusively rely
and shall be protected in relying upon the offered quotations (whether
written, oral or on the Reuters Screen) from the Reference Banks or the New
York City banks as to LIBOR or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in
effect from time to time. The Trustee shall not have any liability or
responsibility to any Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of New York City
banks for purposes of determining any Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its
inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations
from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks or to determine such
arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section 4.07.
The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the COFI
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
SECTION 4.08. Determination of Pass-Through Rates for LIBOR
Certificates.
(a) On each Interest Determination Date so long as any LIBOR
Certificates are outstanding, the Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of
the British Bankers' Association ("BBA") "Interest Settlement Rate" for
one-month deposits in U.S. dollars as quoted on the Bloomberg Terminal as of
each LIBOR Determination Date.
(b) If on any Interest Determination Date, LIBOR cannot be determined
as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section 4.08, the Trustee shall either
(i) request each Reference Bank to inform the Trustee of the quotation offered
by its principal London office for making one-month United States dollar
deposits in leading banks in the London interbank market, as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such Interest Determination Date or (ii) in lieu of making
any such request, rely on such Reference Bank quotations that appear at such
time on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page (as defined in the International Swap
Dealers Association Inc. Code of Standard Wording, Assumptions and Provisions
for Swaps, 1986 Edition), to the extent available. LIBOR for the next Interest
Accrual Period will be established by the Trustee on each interest
Determination Date as follows:
(i) If on any Interest Determination Date two or more Reference
Banks provide such offered quotations, LIBOR for the next applicable
Interest Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such offered
quotations (rounding such arithmetic mean upwards if necessary to the
nearest whole multiple of 1/32%).
(ii) If on any Interest Determination Date only one or none of the
Reference Banks provides such offered quotations, LIBOR for the next
Interest Accrual Period shall be whichever is the higher of (i) LIBOR as
determined on the previous Interest Determination Date or (ii) the
IV-9
Reserve Interest Rate. The "Reserve Interest Rate" shall be the rate per
annum which the Trustee determines to be either (i) the arithmetic mean
(rounded upwards if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 1/32%) of
the one-month United States dollar lending rates that New York City banks
selected by the Trustee are quoting, on the relevant Interest
Determination Date, to the principal London offices of at least two of
the Reference Banks to which such quotations are, in the opinion of the
Trustee, being so made, or (ii) in the event that the Trustee can
determine no such arithmetic mean, the lowest one-month United States
dollar lending rate which New York City banks selected by the Trustee are
quoting on such Interest Determination Date to leading European banks.
(iii) If on any Interest Determination Date the Trustee is required
but is unable to determine the Reserve Interest Rate in the manner
provided in paragraph (b) above, LIBOR for the related Classes of
Certificates shall be LIBOR as determined on the preceding applicable
Interest Determination Date. If on the initial LIBOR Determination Date
the Trustee is required but unable to determine LIBOR in the manner
provided above, LIBOR for the next Interest Accrual Period will be 4.57%.
Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Trustee
will at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of
determining LIBOR with respect to each Interest Determination Date. The Master
Servicer initially shall designate the Reference Banks. Each "Reference Bank"
shall be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the
international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be
under common control with, the Trustee and shall have an established place of
business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable
to act as such or if the Master Servicer should terminate its appointment as
Reference Bank, the Trustee shall promptly appoint or cause to be appointed
another Reference Bank. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility
to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of
determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least four Reference
Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.
(c) The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for
each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee on each
Interest Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding
on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes
corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the
Certificates in the Preliminary Statement.
In determining LIBOR, any Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR
Certificates, any Interest Settlement Rate, or any Reserve Interest Rate, the
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying upon the
offered quotations (whether written, oral or on the Dow Xxxxx Markets) from
the BBA designated banks, the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to
LIBOR, the Interest Settlement Rate or the Reserve Interest Rate, as
appropriate, in effect from time to time. The Trustee shall not have any
liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of
New York City banks for purposes of determining any Reserve Interest Rate or
(ii) its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such
quotations from, the BBA designated banks, the Reference Banks or the New York
City banks or to determine such arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this
Section 4.08.
The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.

SECTION 4.09. Distributions from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
(a) On each Distribution Date on or prior to the earlier of (i) each
Corridor Contract Scheduled Termination Date and (ii) the date on which the
Class Certificate Balance of the related Class of Covered Certificates is
reduced to zero, amounts on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund from
the Class 1-A-1 Corridor Contract will be withdrawn therefrom and distributed
to the Class 1-A-1 Certificates and amounts on deposit in the Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund from the Class 2-A-1 Corridor Contract will be withdrawn
therefrom and distributed to the Class 2-A-1 Certificates, to the extent
needed to pay any related Yield Supplement Amount of the Class 1-A-1 and Class
2-A-1 Certificates, as applicable, for such Distribution Date.
(b) Any amounts remaining in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund after
the earlier of (i) the date on which the aggregate Class Certificate Balance
of the Covered Certificates has been reduced to zero and (ii) the latest
Corridor Contract Scheduled Termination Date, will be distributed to
Countrywide.

THE CERTIFICATES
SECTION 5.01. The Certificates.
The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto
as exhibits. 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.
Subject to Section 9.02 hereof respecting the final distribution on
the Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee 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 Trustee 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 Certificate 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 Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature
on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized 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 Trustee shall
bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have
ceased to be so authorized prior to the countersignature 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 countersigned by the Trustee by manual signature, and
such countersignature upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their countersignature.
On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall countersign the Certificates to be
issued at the direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.
The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee
on a continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate
transfers.
SECTION 5.02. Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and
Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in
accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06 hereof, a Certificate Register
for the Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and
(c) below and to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee
shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates
of the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever
any
V-1
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate, and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly
executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in accordance
with the Trustee's customary procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under said Act and such state securities laws. In
the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the
Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the
Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer and such Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each
certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in
substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit J (the "Transferor Certificate")
and (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either Exhibit K (the
"Investment Letter") or Exhibit L (the "Rule 144A Letter") or (ii) there shall
be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the transferor an Opinion of
Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the
Securities Act. The Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Private
Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder,
information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such
other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to
eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate
without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the
registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Trustee and the Master
Servicer 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 Trustee and the Depositor, the Sellers and the Master
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.
No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless
the Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation from the
transferee of such Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee (in the event such Certificate is a Private
Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by the Trustee's receipt of a
representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit
K or Exhibit L, or in the event such Certificate is a Residual Certificate,
such requirement is satisfied only by the Trustee's receipt of a
representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit
I), to the effect that (x) such transferee is not a Plan or (y) in the case of
a Certificate that is an ERISA-Restricted Certificate and that has been the
subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the
transferee is an insurance company which is purchasing such Certificate 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 purchase and holding of such Certificate satisfy the
requirements for exemptive relief under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or
(ii) in the case of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate presented for
registration in the name of a Plan, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of either the
Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Trust Fund, addressed to
V-2
the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect that the purchase and
holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not result in a non-exempt
prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code,
and will not subject the Trustee or the Master Servicer to any obligation in
addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability.
For purposes of the preceding sentence, with respect to an ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that is not a Residual Certificate, in the event the
representation letter or Opinion of Counsel referred to in the preceding
sentence is not so furnished, one of the representations in clause (i), as
appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the
transferee's (including an initial acquiror's) acceptance of the
ERISA-Restricted Certificate. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary
herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on
behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee as described above shall be void and of no effect.
No transfer of a Covered Certificate (other than a transfer of an
Covered Certificate to an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or
through a nominee) in connection with the initial issuance of the
Certificates) shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received either (i)
a representation from the transferee of such Covered Certificate acceptable to
and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that such
transferee is not a Plan, or (ii) a representation that the purchase and
holding of the Covered Certificate satisfy the requirements for exemptive
relief under XXXX 00-00, XXXX 00-0, XXXX 00-00, XXXX 00-00, XXXX 96-23 or a
similar exemption. In the event that such a representation letter is not
delivered, one of the foregoing representations, as appropriate, shall be
deemed to have been made by the transferee's (including an initial acquiror's)
acceptance of the Covered Certificate. In the event that such representation
is violated, such transfer or acquisition shall be void and of no effect
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not
limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for
any registration of or transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate or Covered
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for
making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking
any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in accordance
with the foregoing requirements.
(c) 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
the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(ii) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax
Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
registration in the name of, or transfer of a Residual Certificate to, an
affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date
or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the
Transfer of any Residual Certificate unless the Trustee shall have been
furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial owner
or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.
(iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, (B) to obtain a
V-3
Transfer Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is acting as
nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Residual
Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate to any other Person if it has actual knowledge that
such Person is not a Permitted Transferee.
(iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder
of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored
to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration
of Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this
Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was
registered after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit, Transferor
Certificate and either the Rule 144A Letter or the Investment Letter, if
required. The Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from
any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted
Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as
it became other than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such
Residual Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so
recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to
the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.
(v) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon
receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of
a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any
Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in
this Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the
Master Servicer or any Seller, to the effect that the elimination of such
restrictions will not cause any REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC
at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition
of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each
Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion
of Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure
that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Residual
Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that is
not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the
Transfer of a Residual Certificate which is held by a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.
(d) The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions
referred to above in this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at
the expense of the parties to such transfers.
(e) Except as provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at
all times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and
at all times: (i) registration of the Certificates may not be transferred by
the Trustee except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain
book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to
ownership and transfers of such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and
transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the
Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the
Depository; (iv)
V-4
the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses
from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee shall deal with the
Depository, Depository Participants and indirect participating firms as
representatives of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for
purposes of exercising the rights of holders under this Agreement, and
requests and directions for and votes of such representatives shall not be
deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with respect to different
Certificate Owners; and (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected
in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its
Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with
respect to indirect participating firms and persons shown on the books of such
indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall
be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository
Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each
Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as
agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.
If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in
writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge
its responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the Depositor is
unable to locate a qualified successor or (y) after the occurrence of an Event
of Default, Certificate Owners representing at least 51% of the Certificate
Balance of the Book-Entry Certificates together advise the Trustee and the
Depository through the Depository Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the
best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all
Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such
event and of the availability of definitive, fully-registered Certificates
(the "Definitive Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same.
Upon surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of Certificates by the
Depository, accompanied by the instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the
Master Servicer, the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay
in delivery of such instruction and each may conclusively rely on, and shall
be protected in relying on, such instructions. The Master Servicer shall
provide the Trustee with an adequate inventory of certificates to facilitate
the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or
to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such
Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder; provided that the
Trustee shall not by virtue of its assumption of such obligations become
liable to any party for any act or failure to act of the Depository.
SECTION 5.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or
the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Master Servicer and
the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each
of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute, countersign and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any
new Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Trustee may require the payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate
issued pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall constitute complete and
indefeasible evidence of ownership, as if originally issued, whether or not
the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
V-5
SECTION 5.04. Persons Deemed Owners.
The Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Master Servicer
or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Master Servicer or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
SECTION 5.05. Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and
Addresses.
If three or more Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners (a)
request such information in writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such
Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners with respect to their rights
under this Agreement or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the
communication which such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners propose
to transmit, or if the Depositor or Master Servicer shall request such
information in writing from the Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten
Business Days after the receipt of such request, (x) provide the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners at
such recipients' expense the most recent list of the Certificateholders of
such Trust Fund held by the Trustee, if any, and (y) assist the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners at such
recipients' expense with obtaining from the Depository a list of the related
Depository Participants acting on behalf of Certificate Owners of Book Entry
Certificates. The Depositor and every Certificateholder and Certificate Owner,
by receiving and holding a Certificate or beneficial interest therein, agree
that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of
any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders and/or
Depository Participants hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.
SECTION 5.06. Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an
office or offices or agency or agencies in New York City where Certificates
may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee
initially designates its Corporate Trust Office for such purposes. The Trustee
will give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders of any change in
such location of any such office or agency.

its duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer will keep in effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a limited partnership under the laws of
the United States or under the laws of one of the states thereof and will
obtain and preserve its qualification or registration to do business as a
foreign partnership in each jurisdiction in which such qualification or
registration is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform
its duties under this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party,
or any person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as
the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or
any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or
surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage
loans on behalf of FNMA or FHLMC.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or consolidation,
at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any merger or
consolidation of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall provide (x)
written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and
(y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect
to a replacement Master Servicer.
SECTION 6.03. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Sellers,
the Master Servicer and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any Seller or any of
the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or any Seller shall be under any liability to the Certificateholders
for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good
faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided,
however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, any Seller or any such Person against any breach of representations
or warranties made by it herein or protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer
or any Seller or any such Person from any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations
and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, each Seller and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or
each Seller may rely in good faith on
VI-1
any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any

connection with any audit, controversy or judicial proceeding relating to a

Servicer or any Seller may in its discretion undertake any such action that it
may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights

The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except (a) upon appointment of a successor servicer and
receipt by the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency that such a
resignation and appointment will not result in a downgrade or withdrawal of
the rating of any of the Certificates or (b) upon determination that its
duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such
determination under clause (b) permitting the resignation of the Master
Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered
to the Trustee. No resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective
until the Trustee or a successor master servicer shall have assumed the Master
Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities
arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations hereunder
and the Depositor shall have received the information described in the

the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement (except with respect to a
failure related to a Limited Exchange Act Reporting Obligation), which
failure materially affects the rights of Certificateholders, that failure
continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Master
Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer and
the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25%
of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates; provided, however,
that the sixty-day cure period shall not apply to the initial delivery of
the Mortgage File for Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans nor the failure to
substitute or repurchase in lieu of delivery; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against
the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; or
(iv) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a
receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or
relating to the Master Servicer or all or substantially all of the
property of the Master Servicer; or
(v) the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay
its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage
of, or commence a voluntary case under, any applicable insolvency or
reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(vi) the Master Servicer shall fail to reimburse in full the Trustee
within five days of the Master Servicer Advance Date for any Advance made
by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(b) together with accrued and
unpaid interest.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) to (vi) of this
Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, or, if an
Event of Default described in clauses (i) to (v) of this Section shall occur,
then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall
not have been remedied, at the direction of the
VII-1
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by the Certificates, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the
Master Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency and the Depositor),
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other
than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder.
In addition, if during the period that the Depositor is required to
file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer
shall fail to observe or perform any of the obligations that constitute a
Limited Exchange Act Reporting Obligation or the obligations set forth in
Section 3.16(a) or Section 11.07(a)(1) and (2), and such failure continues for
the lesser of 10 calendar days or such period in which the applicable Exchange
Act Report can be filed timely (without taking into account any extensions),
so long as such failure shall not have been remedied, the Trustee shall, but
only at the direction of the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a
Certificateholder hereunder. The Depositor shall not be entitled to terminate
the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer if a failure of the Master
Servicer 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.
On and after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written
notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer hereunder, whether with
respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the
Trustee. The Trustee shall thereupon make any Advance which the Master
Servicer failed to make subject to Section 4.01 hereof whether or not the
obligations of the Master Servicer have been terminated pursuant to this
Section. The Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise,
any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other
acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice
of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment
of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly
provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any
obligation of the Master Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article
VIII. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting
the termination of the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all
cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to the Certificate Account,
or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Master
Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of
any late collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due
prior to the notice terminating such Master Servicer's rights and obligations
as Master Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion
thereof to which such Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to
Sections 3.08(a)(i) through (viii), and any other amounts payable to such
Master Servicer hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the
termination of its activities hereunder.
If the Master Servicer is terminated, the Trustee shall provide the
Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect
to a successor master servicer in the event the Trustee should succeed to the
duties of the Master Servicer as set forth herein.
VII-2
SECTION 7.02. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof, the Trustee shall, subject to and
to the extent provided in Section 3.04, be the successor to the Master
Servicer in its capacity as master servicer under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and applicable law including the
obligation to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As compensation
therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage
Loans that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the
Certificate Account or Distribution Account if the Master Servicer had
continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has
become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 7.01
hereof, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it
is prohibited by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to Section 4.01
hereof or if it is otherwise unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing
institution the appointment of which does not adversely affect the then
current rating of the Certificates, by each Rating Agency as the successor to
the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any
successor to the Master Servicer shall be an institution which is a FNMA and
FHLMC approved seller/servicer in good standing, which has a net worth of at
least $15,000,000, and which is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and (i)
executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting
such delegation and assignment, which contains an assumption by such Person of
the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of
the Master Servicer (other than liabilities of the Master Servicer under
Section 6.03 hereof incurred prior to termination of the Master Servicer under
Section 7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a party to this
Agreement; and provided further that each Rating Agency acknowledges that its
rating of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment and
delegation will not be qualified or reduced, as a result of such assignment
and delegation and (ii) provides to the Depositor in writing fifteen days
prior to the effective date of such appointment and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested
by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item
6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement master servicer. The Trustee
shall provide written notice to the Depositor of such successor pursuant to
this Section. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer
hereunder, the Trustee, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so
acting, shall, subject to Section 3.04 hereof, act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out
of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the Master Servicing
Fee permitted to be paid to the Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and
such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as
shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Neither the Trustee nor
any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder
by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution
hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to perform, or any delay in
performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder, in either case caused by
the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or provide, or any delay in
delivering or providing, any cash, information, documents or records to it.
Any successor to the Master Servicer as master servicer shall give
notice to the Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall, during the term
of its service as master servicer maintain in force the policy or policies
that the Master Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section 3.09.
In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the
Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent
and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to
VII-3
comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in
connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with
MERS, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the
successor Master Servicer either (x) in causing MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS
to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and
other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of
such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System to
the successor Master Servicer or (y) in causing MERS to designate on the
MERS(R) System the successor Master Servicer as the servicer of such Mortgage
Loan. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such
assignment in the appropriate recording office. The successor Master Servicer
shall cause such assignment to be delivered to the Trustee promptly upon
receipt of the original with evidence of recording thereon or a copy certified
by the public recording office in which such assignment was recorded.
SECTION 7.03. Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the
Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders and to each Rating Agency.
(b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of each such
Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default
shall have been cured or waived.
VII-4
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
SECTION 8.01. Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after
the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished to the Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall examine them to determine
whether they are in the form required by this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any
such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or
other instrument.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) unless an Event of Default known to the Trustee shall have
occurred and be continuing, the duties and obligations of the Trustee
shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement,
the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties
and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
against the Trustee and the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the
truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement which it believed in
good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper
authorities respecting any matters arising hereunder;
(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made
in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the
Trustee, unless it shall be finally proven that the Trustee was negligent
in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than
25% of the Voting Rights of Certificates relating to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee
under this Agreement; and
(iv) without in any way limiting the provisions of this Section 8.01
or Section 8.02 hereof, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely
conclusively on the information delivered to it by the Master Servicer in
a Trustee Advance Notice in determining whether it is required to make an
Advance under Section 4.01(b), shall have no responsibility to ascertain
or confirm any information contained in any Trustee Advance Notice, and
shall have no obligation to make any Advance under Section 4.01(b) in the
absence of a Trustee Advance Notice or actual knowledge
VIII-1
of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that (A) such Advance was not
made by the Master Servicer and (B) such Advance is not a Nonrecoverable
Advance.
SECTION 8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) the Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers'
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal,
bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the Trustee
shall have no responsibility to ascertain or confirm the genuineness of
any signature of any such party or parties;
(ii) the Trustee may consult with counsel, financial advisers or
accountants and the advice of any such counsel, financial advisers or
accountants and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered
or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such
Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or
within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this
Agreement;
(iv) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by
Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
allocated to each Class of Certificates;
(v) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents,
accountants or attorneys;
(vi) the Trustee shall not be required to risk or expend its own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers
hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or
liability is not assured to it;
(vii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss on any investment
of funds pursuant to this Agreement (other than as issuer of the
investment security);
(viii) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event
of Default until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received
written notice thereof; and
(ix) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts, rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute,
conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the
request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall
have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory
to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be
incurred therein or thereby.
VIII-2
SECTION 8.03. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be taken
as the statements of the Depositor or a Seller, as the case may be, and the
Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the
MERS System other than with respect to the Trustee's execution and
counter-signature of the Certificates. The Trustee shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any
funds paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage
Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the
Depositor or the Master Servicer.
SECTION 8.04. Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it
were not the Trustee.
SECTION 8.05. Trustee's Fees and Expenses.
The Trustee, as compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be
entitled to withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date
an amount equal to the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date. The Trustee and
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified
by the Master Servicer and held harmless against any loss, liability or
expense (including reasonable attorney's fees) (i) incurred in connection with
any claim or legal action relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) the Certificates
or (c) in connection with the performance of any of the Trustee's duties
hereunder, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the
Trustee's duties hereunder or incurred by reason of any action of the Trustee
taken at the direction of the Certificateholders and (ii) resulting from any
error in any tax or information return prepared by the Master Servicer. Such
indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation
or removal of the Trustee hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Master Servicer covenants and agrees, except as otherwise agreed upon in
writing by the Depositor and the Trustee, and except for any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may arise from the Trustee's negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct, to pay or reimburse the Trustee, for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to: (A)
the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel
not associated with the closing of the issuance of the Certificates, (B) the
reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of any accountant,
engineer or appraiser that is not regularly employed by the Trustee, to the
extent that the Trustee must engage such persons to perform acts or services
hereunder and (C) printing and engraving expenses in connection with preparing
any Definitive Certificates. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee
shall not be entitled to payment or reimbursement for any routine ongoing
expenses incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as
Trustee, Registrar, Tax Matters Person or Paying Agent hereunder or for any
other expenses.
SECTION 8.06. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or
association organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000,
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and with a
credit rating which would not cause either of the Rating Agencies to reduce or
withdraw their respective then current ratings of the Certificates (or having
provided such security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such
reduction) as evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation
or association publishes reports of
VIII-3
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or
association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set
forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with
the effect specified in Section 8.07 hereof. The entity serving as Trustee may
have normal banking and trust relationships with the Depositor and its
affiliates or the Master Servicer and its affiliates; provided, however, that
such entity cannot be an affiliate of the Master Servicer other than the
Trustee in its role as successor to the Master Servicer.
SECTION 8.07. Resignation and Removal of Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts
hereby created by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the date
specified in such notice when, subject to Section 8.08, such resignation is to
take effect, and acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with Section
8.08 meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor
trustee meeting such qualifications shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice or
resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any such resignation, at least
15 calendar days prior to the effective date of such resignation, the Trustee
shall provide (x) written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to
this Section and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the
Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of
Form 8-K with respect to the resignation of the Trustee.
If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof and shall fail to resign
after written request thereto by the Depositor, (ii) the Trustee shall become
incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,(iii)
(A) a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which the
Trustee or the Trust Fund is located, (B) the imposition of such tax would be
avoided by the appointment of a different trustee and (C) the Trustee fails to
indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax or (iv) during the period that the
Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust
Fund, the Trustee fails to comply with its obligations under the last sentence
of Section 7.01, the preceding paragraph, Section 8.09 or Article XI and such
failure is not remedied within the lesser of 10 calendar days or such period
in which the applicable Exchange Act Report can be filed timely (without
taking into account any extensions), then, in the case of clauses (i) through
(iii), the Depositor or the Master Servicer, or in the case of clause (iv),
the Depositor, may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Master
Servicer and one copy of which shall be delivered to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting
Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or
their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments
shall be delivered by the successor Trustee to the Master Servicer, one
complete set to the Trustee so removed, one complete set to the successor so
appointed and one complete set to the Depositor, together with a written
description of the basis of such removal. Notice of any removal of the Trustee
shall be given to each Rating Agency by the successor trustee.
VIII-4
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08 hereof.
SECTION 8.08. Successor Trustee.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 hereof
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor
trustee and the Master Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment
hereunder and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee
shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as
if originally named as trustee herein. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and
the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such
other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly
vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers,
duties, and obligations. In addition, if the Corridor Contract is still
outstanding, the Person appointed as successor trustee shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the predecessor trustee, Countrywide and the Master
Servicer an instrument accepting the appointment as successor Corridor
Contract Administrator under the Corridor Contract Administration Agreement.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, its appointment
shall not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates and
such successor trustee has provided to the Depositor in writing and in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information
reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting
obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement Trustee.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in
this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the Depositor fails to
mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed
at the expense of the Depositor.
SECTION 8.09. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof without the execution or
filing of any paper or further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or consolidation,
at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any merger or
consolidation of the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide (x) written notice to
the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and (y) in writing and
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all
information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its
reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement
Trustee.
SECTION 8.10. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Trust Fund or property
VIII-5
securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be located, the Master Servicer and
the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver
all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act
as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or
separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof,
whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section
8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master
Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master
Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to
make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section
8.06 and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee
or separate trustee shall be required under Section 8.08.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted
by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:
(i) To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this
Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee under
this Agreement to advance funds on behalf of the Master Servicer, shall
be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee
and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that
such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately
without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under
any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be
performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations (including the holding of title to the applicable Trust Fund
or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at
the direction of the Trustee;
(ii) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason
of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such
appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such
separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the Trustee;
(iii) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or
remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(iv) The Master Servicer, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for
the payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification
to any such separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees,
when and as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement
and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee,
upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates
or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with
the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this
Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the
Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Master Servicer and the Depositor.
VIII-6
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the
Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the
extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this
Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee
shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its
estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.
SECTION 8.11. Tax Matters.
It is intended that the assets with respect to which any REMIC
election is to be made, as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall
constitute, and that the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be
such as to qualify such assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit"
as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of
such intention, the Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent
(and the Trustee is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of any such
REMIC and that in such capacity it shall: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be
prepared and filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment
Conduit Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the
Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and
filed with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax
authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year with
respect to any such REMIC, containing such information and at the times and in
the manner as may be required by the Code or state or local tax laws,
regulations, or rules, and furnish or cause to be furnished to
Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such times and
in such manner as may be required thereby; (b) within thirty days of the
Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue
Service, on Forms 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name,
title, address, and telephone number of the person that the holders of the
Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with
such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update such
information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code; (c) make
or cause to be made elections that such assets be treated as a REMIC on the
federal tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under
applicable state law); (d) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and
forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and,
if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as
and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC
Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of any original
issue discount using the Prepayment Assumption; (e) provide information
necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an agent
(including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non-Permitted
Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted Transferee is
the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and
furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(f) to the extent that they are under its control conduct matters relating to
such assets at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to
maintain the status as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (g) not knowingly
or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause
the termination of the tax status of any REMIC; (h) pay, from the sources
specified in the second to last paragraph of this Section 8.11, the amount of
any federal or state tax, including prohibited transaction taxes as described
below, imposed on any such REMIC prior to its termination when and as the same
shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Trustee or
any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in appropriate
proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding payment of such
tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); (i) ensure
that federal, state or local income tax or information returns shall be signed
by the Trustee or such other person as may be required to sign such returns by
the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules; (j) maintain records
relating to any such REMIC, including but not limited to the income, expenses,
assets and liabilities thereof and the fair market value and adjusted basis of
the assets determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may
be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or
information; and (k) as and when necessary and appropriate,
VIII-7
represent any such REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceedings
relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority,
request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any such REMIC,
enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend
any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of any such REMIC, and
otherwise act on behalf of any such REMIC in relation to any tax matter or
controversy involving it.
In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth
herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee
within ten (10) days after the Closing Date all information or data that the
Trustee requests in writing and 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. Thereafter, the Depositor shall
provide to the Trustee promptly upon written request therefor, any such
additional information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time,
reasonably request in order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set
forth herein. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses,
liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Trustee arising from any
errors or miscalculations of the Trustee that result from any failure of the
Depositor to provide, or to cause to be provided, accurate information or data
to the Trustee on a timely basis.
In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of
any REMIC hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net
income from foreclosure property" of such REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c)
of the Code, on any contribution to any REMIC hereunder after the Startup Day
pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed,
including, without limitation, any minimum tax imposed upon any REMIC
hereunder pursuant to Sections 23153 and 24874 of the California Revenue and
Taxation Code, if not paid as otherwise provided for herein, such tax shall be
paid by (i) the Trustee, if any such other tax arises out of or results from a
breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the
Master Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, or if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer or a Seller of any of
their obligations under this Agreement, (iii) any Seller, if any such tax
arises out of or results from that Seller's obligation to repurchase a
Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 or (iv) in all other cases, or
in the event that the Trustee, the Master Servicer or any Seller fails to
honor its obligations under the preceding clauses (i),(ii) or (iii), any such
tax will be paid with amounts otherwise to be distributed to the
Certificateholders, as provided in Section 3.08(b).
The Trustee shall treat the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund as an
outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h)
that is owned by the Underwriter, and that is not an asset of the Trust Fund
or any REMIC created hereunder. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the
Holders of the Covered Certificates to receive payments from the Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund as rights in an interest rate corridor contract written
by the Corridor Contract Counterparty. Thus, the Covered Certificates shall be
treated as representing ownership of not only a Master REMIC regular interest,
but also ownership of an interest in an interest rate corridor contract. For
purposes of determining the issue price of the Master REMIC regular interest,
the Trustee shall assume that the Corridor Contracts entered into by the
Corridor Contract Counterparty in respect of the Class 1-A-1 and Class 2-A-1
Certificates have a value of $1,277,000 and $741,000, respectively.

ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION
SECTION 9.01. Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of all
Mortgage Loans.
Subject to Section 9.03, the obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Sellers, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created hereby
with respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the
purchase by the Master Servicer of all Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties)
remaining in the Trust Fund at the price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the
Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan plus one month's accrued
interest thereon at the applicable Adjusted Mortgage Rate, (ii) 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 Master
Servicer at the expense of the Master Servicer and (y) the Stated Principal
Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, and (iii) any
remaining unpaid costs and damages incurred by the Trust Fund that arises out
of an actual violation of any predatory or abusive lending law or regulation,
in all cases plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable
Adjusted Mortgage Rate and (b) the later of (i) the maturity or other
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 (ii)
the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be
distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In no event shall the trusts
created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) the expiration of 21 years
from the death of the survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the
late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on
the date hereof and (ii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date.
The Master Servicer shall have the right to purchase all Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties in the Trust Fund pursuant to clause (a) in the
preceding paragraph of this Section 9.01 only on or after the date on which
the Pool Stated Principal Balance, at the time of any such repurchase, is less
than or equal to ten percent (10%) of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance.
SECTION 9.02. Final Distribution on the Certificates.
If on any Determination Date, the Master Servicer determines that
there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the
Trust Fund other than the funds in the Certificate Account, the Master
Servicer shall direct the Trustee promptly to send a final distribution notice
to each Certificateholder. If the Master Servicer elects to terminate the
Trust Fund pursuant to clause (a) of Section 9.01, at least 20 days prior to
the date notice is to be mailed to the affected Certificateholders, the Master
Servicer shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the date the Master
Servicer intends to terminate the Trust Fund and of the applicable repurchase
price of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the
Distribution Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates
for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given
promptly by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier
than the 10th day and no later than the 15th day of the month next preceding
the month of such final distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the
Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates will be
made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office therein
designated, (b) the amount of such final distribution, (c) the location of the
office or agency at which such presentation and surrender must be made, and
(d) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of
the Certificates at the office
IX-1
therein specified. The Master Servicer will give such notice to each Rating
Agency at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders.
In the event such notice is given, the Master Servicer shall cause
all funds in the Certificate Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit
in the Distribution Account on or before the Business Day prior to the
applicable Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in
respect of the Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust
Fund and the receipt by the Trustee of a Request for Release therefor, the
Trustee shall promptly release to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files for
the Mortgage Loans.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, with respect to
Certificateholders of the same Class, an amount equal to (i) as to each Class
of Regular Certificates, the Certificate Balance thereof plus (a) accrued
interest thereon (or on their Notional Amount, if applicable) in the case of
an interest bearing Certificate and (b) any Class PO Deferred Amounts in the
case of any Class PO Certificates, and (ii) as to the Residual Certificates,
the amount, if any, which remains on deposit in the Distribution Account
(other than the amounts retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to
clause (i) above. Notwithstanding the reduction of the Class Certificate
Balance of any Class of Certificates to zero, such Class will be outstanding
hereunder (solely for the purpose of receiving distributions and not for any
other purpose) until the termination of the respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Depositor, each Seller, the Master Servicer and the
Trustee hereunder in accordance with Article IX.
In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in
the above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written
notice to the remaining 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 applicable Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee 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 a part of the Trust Fund. If within one year after the
second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation then, the Class A-R Certificateholders shall be entitled to all
unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund which remain subject
hereto.
The Supplemental Interest Trust shall terminate on the earlier of (i)
the Corridor Contract Scheduled Termination Date and (ii) the date on which
the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Covered Certificates is reduced
to zero.
SECTION 9.03. Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event the Master Servicer exercises its purchase option as
provided in Section 9.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance
with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been
supplied with an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the Master Servicer, to
the effect that the failure to comply with the requirements of this Section
9.03 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" on any REMIC as defined in section 860F of the Code, or (ii)
cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding:
(1) Within 90 days prior to the final Distribution
Date set forth in the notice given by the Master Servicer
under Section 9.02, the Master Servicer shall prepare and
the Trustee, at the expense of the "tax matters person,"
shall adopt a
IX-2
plan of complete liquidation within the meaning of
section 860F(a)(4) of the Code which, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the Tax Matters Person), meets
the requirements of a qualified liquidation; and
(2) Within 90 days after the time of adoption of such
a plan of complete liquidation, the Trustee shall sell all
of the assets of the Trust Fund to the Master Servicer for
cash in accordance with Section 9.01.
(b) The Trustee, as agent for any REMIC created under this Agreement,
hereby agrees to adopt and sign such a plan of complete liquidation upon the
written request of the Master Servicer, and the receipt of the Opinion of
Counsel referred to in Section 9.03(a)(1) and to take such other action in
connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Master Servicer.
(c) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof
hereby authorize the Master Servicer to prepare and the Trustee to adopt and
sign a plan of complete liquidation.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
SECTION 10.01. Amendment.
This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
each Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee without the consent of any of
the Certificateholders (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct
any defective provision herein or to supplement any provision herein which may
be inconsistent with any other provision herein, (iii) to conform this
Agreement to the Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement provided to investors in
connection with the initial offering of the Certificates, (iv) to add to the
duties of the Depositor, any Seller or the Master Servicer, (v) to modify,
alter, amend, add to or rescind any of the terms or provisions contained in

modify, alter, amend, add to or rescind any of the terms or provisions
contained in this Agreement; provided that any action pursuant to clauses (v),
(vi) or (vii) above shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund),
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder; provided, however, that the amendment shall not be deemed
to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Certificateholders if the Person requesting the amendment obtains a letter
from each Rating Agency stating that the amendment would not result in the
downgrading or withdrawal of the respective ratings then assigned to the
Certificates; it being understood and agreed that any such letter in and of
itself will not represent a determination as to the materiality of any such
amendment and will represent a determination only as to the credit issues
affecting any such rating. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment that
significantly changes the permitted activities of the trust created by this
Agreement may be made without the consent of a Majority in Interest of each
Class of Certificates affected by such amendment. Each party to this Agreement
hereby agrees that it will cooperate with each other party in amending this
Agreement pursuant to clause (v) above. The Trustee, each Seller, the
Depositor and the Master Servicer also may at any time and from time to time
amend this Agreement without the consent of the Certificateholders to modify,
eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary
or helpful to (i) maintain the qualification of any REMIC as a REMIC under the
Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on any
REMIC pursuant to the Code that would be a claim at any time prior to the
final redemption of the Certificates or (iii) comply with any other
requirements of the Code, provided that the Trustee has been provided an
Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting
such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the
Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or helpful to, as
applicable, (i) maintain such qualification, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk
of the imposition of such a tax or (iii) comply with any such requirements of
the Code.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, each Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of a Majority in Interest of each Class of Certificates
affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided,
however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of,
or delay the timing of, payments required to be distributed on any Certificate
without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect
in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of
Certificates in a manner other than as described in (i), without the consent
of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to such Class,
Percentage Interests aggregating 66-2/3% or (iii) reduce the aforesaid
percentages of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to
any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all such
Certificates then outstanding.
X-1
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee
shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have
first received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense of
the Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such amendment will not
cause the imposition of any tax on any REMIC or the Certificateholders or
cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement
requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each
Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under
this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The
manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an
amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be
an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that
(i) such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and
that all requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with; and
(ii) either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth
in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant
to this Section 10.01.
SECTION 10.02. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public
offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages
are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or
elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer at its
expense, but only upon direction by the Trustee accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially
affects the interests of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as
herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one
and the same instrument.
SECTION 10.03. Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL BE DETERMINED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
SECTION 10.04. Intention of Parties.
(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the (i) Mortgage Loans by the Sellers to the Depositor and (ii)
Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee each be, and be construed as, an
absolute sale thereof to the Trustee. It is, further, not the intention of the
X-2
parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge thereof. However, in the
event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such assets are held to
be the property of any Seller or the Depositor, as the case may be, or if for
any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security
interest in either such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be
a security agreement (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
State of New York) with respect to all such assets and security interests and
(ii) the conveyances provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an
assignment and a grant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (i) by each
Seller to the Depositor or (ii) by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the assets
that constitute the Trust Fund, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
Each Seller and the Depositor for the benefit of the
Certificateholders shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take
such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed
to create a security interest in the Trust Fund, such security interest would
be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under
applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the
Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code
continuation statements in connection with any security interest granted or
assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.
(b) The Depositor hereby represents that:
(i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest
(as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of New
York (the "NY UCC")) in the Mortgage Notes in favor of the Trustee, which
security interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as such
as against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.
(ii) The Mortgage Notes constitutes "instruments" within the meaning
of the NY UCC.
(iii) Immediately prior to the assignment of each Mortgage Loan to
the Trustee, the Depositor owns and has good and marketable title to such
Mortgage Loan free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any
Person.
(iv) The Depositor has received all consents and approvals required
by the terms of the Mortgage Loans to the sale of the Mortgage Loans
hereunder to the Trustee.
(v) All original executed copies of each Mortgage Note that are
required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 have
been delivered to the Trustee.
(vi) Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned,
sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the
Mortgage Loans. The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not
aware of any financing statements against the Depositor that include a
description of collateral covering the Mortgage Loans other than any
financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the
Trustee hereunder or that has been terminated. The Depositor is not aware
of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Depositor.
(c) The Master Servicer shall take such action as is reasonably
necessary to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of
the Trustee in the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the obligation to
deliver the Mortgage File to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 shall be
solely the Depositor's obligation and the Master Servicer shall not be
responsible for the safekeeping of the Mortgage Files by the Trustee.
X-3
(d) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in subsection (b) above shall survive delivery of the
Mortgage Files to the Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee
of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties set forth
in subsection (b) above, which breach materially and adversely affects the
interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall
give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating Agency.
SECTION 10.05. Notices.
(a) The Trustee shall use its best efforts to promptly provide notice
to each Rating Agency with respect to each of the following of which it has
actual knowledge:
1. Any material change or amendment to this Agreement;
2. The occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been cured;
3. The resignation or termination of the Master Servicer or the
Trustee and the appointment of any successor;

Certificate Register.
SECTION 10.06. Severability of Provisions.
If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms
of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the
remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and

for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or
proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted
by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee,
that no one or more Holders of
X-5
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by
availing itself or themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect,

any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in

the Master Servicer hereby authorizes said accountants to discuss with such
representative such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such reasonable
times and as often as may be reasonably requested. Any out-of-pocket expense
incident to the exercise by the Depositor or the Trustee of any right under

Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to) provide the Depositor with
(a) such information which is available to such Person without unreasonable
effort or expense and within such timeframe as may be reasonably requested by
the Depositor to comply with the Depositor's reporting obligations under the

such agreement or amendment in XXXXX-compatible form.
SECTION 11.02. Form 10-D Filings.
(a) In accordance with the Exchange Act, the Trustee shall prepare
for filing and file within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to
permitted extensions under the Exchange Act) with the Commission with respect
to the Trust Fund, a Form 10-D with copies of the Monthly Report and, to the
extent delivered to the Trustee, no later than 10 days following the
Distribution Date, such other information identified by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer, in writing, to be filed with the Commission (such other
information, the "Additional Designated Information"). If the Depositor or
Master Servicer directs that any Additional Designated Information is to be
filed with any Form 10-D, the Depositor or Master Servicer, as the case may
be, shall specify the Item on Form 10-D to which such information is
responsive and, with respect to any Exhibit to be filed on Form 10-D, the
Exhibit number. Any information to be filed on Form 10-D shall be delivered to
the Trustee in XXXXX-compatible form or as otherwise agreed upon by the
Trustee and the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, at the
Depositor's expense, and any necessary conversion to XXXXX-compatible format

accordance with the reasonable directions of, the Depositor or the Master
Servicer, subject to the two preceding sentences, the Trustee shall prepare
for filing and file an amendment to any Form 10-D previously filed with the
Commission with respect to the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer shall sign the
Form 10-D filed on behalf of the Trust Fund.
(b) No later than each Distribution Date, each of the Master Servicer
and the Trustee shall notify (and the Master Servicer shall cause any
Subservicer to notify) the Depositor and the Master Servicer of any Form 10-D
Disclosure Item, together with a description of any such Form 10-D Disclosure
Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Depositor. In addition
to such information as the Master Servicer and the Trustee are obligated to
provide pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement, if so requested by the
Depositor, each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall provide such
information which is available to the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as
applicable, without unreasonable effort or expense regarding the performance
or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (in the case of the Trustee, based on the
information provided by the Master Servicer) as is reasonably required to
facilitate preparation of distribution reports in accordance with Item 1121 of
Regulation AB. Such information shall be provided concurrently with the
delivering of the reports specified in Section 4.06(c) in the case of the
Master Servicer and the Monthly Statement in the case of the Trustee,
commencing with the first such report due not less than five Business Days
following such request.
(c) The Trustee shall not have any responsibility to file any items
(other than those generated by it) that have not been received in a format
suitable (or readily convertible into a format suitable) for electronic filing
via the XXXXX system and shall not have any responsibility to convert any
XI-7
such items to such format (other than those items generated by it or that are
readily convertible to such format). The Trustee shall have no liability to
the Certificateholders, the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer or the Depositor
with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file any of Form 10-D to
the extent that such failure is not the result of any negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct on its part.
SECTION 11.03. Form 8-K Filings.
The Master Servicer shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust
Fund any Form 8-K required by the Exchange Act. Each Form 8-K must be signed

the Master Servicer), but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after
its occurrence, of any Reportable Event of which it has actual knowledge. Each
Person shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of any such event to the
extent that it relates to such Person or any action or failure to act by such
Person. Concurrently with any transfer of Supplemental Mortgage Loans, if any,
Countrywide shall notify the Depositor and the Master Servicer, if any
material pool characteristic of the actual asset pool at the time of issuance
of the Certificates differs by 5% or more (other than as a result of the pool
assets converting into cash in accordance with their terms) from the
description of the asset pool in the Prospectus Supplement.
SECTION 11.04. Form 10-K Filings.
Prior to March 30th of each year, commencing in 2007 (or such earlier
date as may be required by the Exchange Act), the Depositor shall prepare and
file on behalf of the Trust Fund a Form 10-K, in form and substance as

compliance statement described under Section 3.16, (ii) annual report on
assessments of compliance with servicing criteria described under Section
11.07 and (iii) accountant's report described under Section 11.07. Each Form
10-K shall also include any Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification required to be
included therewith, as described in Section 11.05.
If the Item 1119 Parties listed on Exhibit W have changed since the
Closing Date, no later than March 1 of each year, the Master Servicer shall
provide each of the Master Servicer (and the Master Servicer shall provide any
Subservicer) and the Trustee with an updated Exhibit W setting forth the Item
1119 Parties. No later than March 15 of each year, commencing in 2007, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee shall notify (and the Master Servicer shall
cause any Subservicer to notify) the Depositor and the Master Servicer of any
Form 10-K Disclosure Item, together with a description of any such Form 10-K
Disclosure Item in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Depositor.
Additionally, each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall provide, and
shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor retained by the Master Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, and in the case of the Master Servicer shall cause
each Subservicer, to provide, the following information no later than March 15

Trust Fund: (i) if such Person's report on assessment of compliance with
servicing criteria described under Section 11.07 or related registered public
accounting firm attestation report described under Section 11.07 identifies
any material instance of noncompliance, notification of such instance of
noncompliance and (ii) if any such Person's report on assessment of compliance
with the servicing criteria or related registered public accounting firm
attestation report is not provided to be filed as an exhibit to such Form
10-K, information detailing the explanation why such report is not included.
SECTION 11.05. Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification.
Each Form 10-K shall include a certification (the "Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Certification") required by Rules 13a-14(d) and 15d-14(d) under the Exchange
Act (pursuant to Section 302 of the
XI-8
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations of the Commission
promulgated thereunder (including any interpretations thereof by the
Commission's staff)). No later than March 15 of each year, beginning in 2007,
the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall (unless such person is the
Certifying Person), and the Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer and
each Reporting Subcontractor and the Trustee shall cause each Reporting
Subcontractor to, provide to the Person who signs the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Certification (the "Certifying Person") a certification (each, a "Performance
Certification"), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit U-1 (in the case of a
Subservicer) and Exhibit U-2 (in the case of the Trustee), on which the
Certifying Person, the entity for which the Certifying Person acts as an
officer, and such entity's officers, directors and Affiliates (collectively
with the Certifying Person, "Certification Parties") can reasonably rely. The
senior officer in charge of the servicing function of the Master Servicer
shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the Trust Fund. Neither the
Master Servicer nor the Depositor will request delivery of a certification
under this clause unless the Depositor is required under the Exchange Act to
file an annual report on Form 10-K with respect to the Trust Fund. In the
event that prior to the filing date of the Form 10-K in March of each year,
the Trustee or the Depositor has actual knowledge of information material to
the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification, the Trustee or the Depositor, as the case
may be, shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and the Depositor. The
respective parties hereto agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests made
by any Certifying Person or Certification Party in connection with such
Person's attempt to conduct any due diligence that such Person reasonably
believes to be appropriate in order to allow it to deliver any Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Certification or portion thereof with respect to the Trust Fund.

(a) On or before March 15 of each calendar year, commencing in 2007:
(1) Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall deliver to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a report (in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor) regarding the Master
Servicer's or the Trustee's, as applicable, assessment of compliance
with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding
calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the
Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be
signed by an authorized officer of such Person and shall address
each of the Servicing Criteria specified on a certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit V hereto delivered to the
Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement. To the
extent any of the Servicing Criteria are not applicable to such
Person, with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken
as a whole involving such Person and that are backed by the same
asset type backing the Certificates, such report shall include such
a statement to that effect. The Depositor and the Master Servicer,
and each of their respective officers and directors shall be
entitled to rely on upon each such servicing criteria assessment.
(2) Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall deliver to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a report of a registered public
accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Depositor that attests
to, and reports on, the assessment of compliance made by Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and delivered pursuant to
the preceding paragraphs. Such attestation shall be in accordance
with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, without
XI-9
limitation that in the event that an overall opinion cannot be
expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in
such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such
report must be available for general use and not contain restricted
use language. To the extent any of the Servicing Criteria are not
applicable to such Person, with respect to asset-backed securities
transactions taken as a whole involving such Person and that are
backed by the same asset type backing the Certificates, such report
shall include such a statement that that effect.
(3) The Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer and each
Reporting Subcontractor to deliver to the Depositor an assessment of
compliance and accountant's attestation as and when provided in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 11.07.
(4) The Trustee shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor to deliver
to the Depositor and the Master Servicer an assessment of compliance
and accountant's attestation as and when provided in paragraphs (a)
and (b) of this Section.
(5) The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall execute (and the
Master Servicer shall cause each Subservicer to execute, and the
Master Servicer and the Trustee shall cause each Reporting
Subcontractor to execute) a reliance certificate to enable the
Certification Parties to rely upon each (i) annual compliance
statement provided pursuant to Section 3.16, (ii) annual report on
assessments of compliance with servicing criteria provided pursuant
to this Section 11.07 and (iii) accountant's report provided
pursuant to this Section 11.07 and shall include a certification
that each such annual compliance statement or report discloses any
deficiencies or defaults described to the registered public
accountants of such Person to enable such accountants to render the
certificates provided for in this Section 11.07.
(b) In the event the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, the Trustee or
Reporting Subcontractor is terminated or resigns during the term of this
Agreement, such Person shall provide documents and information required by
this Section 11.07 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this
Agreement or provided services with respect to the Trust Fund, the
Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.
(c) Each assessment of compliance provided by a Subservicer pursuant
to Section 11.07(a)(3) shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified
on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit V hereto delivered to
the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement or, in the
case of a Subservicer subsequently appointed as such, on or prior to the date
of such appointment. An assessment of compliance provided by a Subcontractor
pursuant to Section 11.07(a)(3) or (4) need not address any elements of the
Servicing Criteria other than those specified by the Master Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 11.07(a)(1).
SECTION 11.08. Use of Subservicers and Subcontractors.
(a) The Master Servicer shall cause any Subservicer used by the
Master Servicer (or by any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to
comply with the provisions of Section 3.16 and this Article XI to the same
extent as if such Subservicer were the Master Servicer (except with respect to
the Master Servicer's duties with respect to preparing and filing any Exchange
Act Reports or as the Certifying Person). The Master Servicer shall be
responsible for obtaining from each Subservicer and delivering to the
Depositor any servicer compliance statement required to be delivered by such
Subservicer under Section 3.16, any assessment of compliance and attestation
required to be delivered by such Subservicer under Section 11.07 and any
certification required to be delivered to the Certifying Person under Section
11.05 as and when required to be delivered. As a condition to the succession
to any
XI-10
Subservicer as subservicer under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which
such Subservicer may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed
as a successor to any Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall provide to the
Depositor, at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of such
succession or appointment, (x) written notice to the Depositor of such
succession or appointment and (y) in writing and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested
by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item
6.02 of Form 8-K.
(b) It shall not be necessary for the Master Servicer, any
Subservicer or the Trustee to seek the consent of the Depositor or any other
party hereto to the utilization of any Subcontractor. The Master Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, shall promptly upon request provide to the
Depositor (or any designee of the Depositor, such as the Master Servicer or
administrator) a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to
the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such
Person (or in the case of the Master Servicer or any Subservicer), specifying
(i) the identity of each such Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any) of such
Subcontractors are "participating in the servicing function" within the
meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, and (iii) which elements of the
Servicing Criteria will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by
each Subcontractor identified pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph.
As a condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to
be a Reporting Subcontractor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, shall cause any such Subcontractor used by such Person (or in the
case of the Master Servicer or any Subservicer) for the benefit of the
Depositor to comply with the provisions of Sections 11.07 and 11.09 of this
Agreement to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were the Master Servicer
(except with respect to the Master Servicer's duties with respect to preparing
and filing any Exchange Act Reports or as the Certifying Person) or the
Trustee, as applicable. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable,
shall be responsible for obtaining from each Subcontractor and delivering to
the Depositor and the Master Servicer, any assessment of compliance and
attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 11.05
and Section 11.07, in each case as and when required to be delivered.
SECTION 11.09. Amendments.
In the event the parties to this Agreement desire to further clarify
or amend any provision of this Article XI, this Agreement shall be amended to
reflect the new agreement between the parties covering matters in this Article
XI pursuant to Section 10.01, which amendment shall not require any Opinion of
Counsel or Rating Agency confirmations or the consent of any
Certificateholder. If, during the period that the Depositor is required to
file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer
is no longer an Affiliate of the Depositor, the Depositor shall assume the
obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer in this Article XI
with respect to the preparation and filing of the Exchange Act Reports and/or
acting as the Certifying Person, if the Depositor has received indemnity from
such successor Master Servicer satisfactory to the Depositor, and such Master
Servicer has agreed to provide a Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification to the Depositor
substantially in the form of Exhibit X, and the certifications referred to in
Section 11.07.

Representations and Warranties of Countrywide as to all of the Mortgage Loans
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. ("Countrywide") hereby makes the
representations and warranties set forth in this Schedule III-A to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, with respect to all of the
Initial Mortgage Loans as of the Closing Date. Capitalized terms used but not
otherwise defined in this Schedule III-A shall have the meanings ascribed
thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement") relating to the above-referenced Series, among Countrywide, as a
seller, Park Granada LLC, as a seller, Park Monaco Inc., as a seller, Park
Sienna LLC, as a seller, Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP, as master
servicer, CWMBS, Inc., as depositor, and The Bank of New York, as trustee.
(1) The information set forth on Schedule I to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement with respect to each Mortgage Loan is true and correct in
all material respects as of the Closing Date.
(2) As of the Closing Date, all payments due with respect to each
Mortgage Loan prior to the Cut-off Date have been made; and as of the Cut-off
Date, no Mortgage Loan has been contractually delinquent for 30 or more days
more than once during the twelve months prior to the Cut-off Date.
(3) None of the Mortgage Loans had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at
origination in excess of 90.00%.
(4) Each Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien on the
Mortgaged Property subject only to (a) the lien of non delinquent current real
property taxes and assessments, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of
recording of such Mortgage, such exceptions appearing of record being
acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally or specifically
reflected in the appraisal made in connection with the origination of the
related Mortgage Loan, and (c) other matters to which like properties are
commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the
security intended to be provided by such Mortgage.
(5) [Reserved].
(6) There is no delinquent tax or assessment lien against any
Mortgaged Property.
(7) There is no valid offset, defense or counterclaim to any Mortgage
Note or Mortgage, including the obligation of the Mortgagor to pay the unpaid
principal of or interest on such Mortgage Note.
(8) There are no mechanics' liens or claims for work, labor or
material affecting any Mortgaged Property which are or may be a lien prior to,
or equal with, the lien of such Mortgage, except those which are insured
against by the title insurance policy referred to in item (12) below.
S-III-A-1
(9) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to the
best of Countrywide's knowledge, each Mortgaged Property is free of material
damage and in good repair.
(10) Each Mortgage Loan at origination complied in all material
respects with applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without
limitation, usury, equal credit opportunity, predatory and abusive lending
laws, real estate settlement procedures, truth-in-lending and disclosure laws,
and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the
violation of any such laws.
(11) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans,
neither of the Sellers nor any prior holder of any Mortgage has modified the
Mortgage in any material respect (except that a Mortgage Loan may have been
modified by a written instrument which has been recorded or submitted for
recordation, if necessary, to protect the interests of the Certificateholders
and the original or a copy of which has been delivered to the Trustee);
satisfied, cancelled or subordinated such Mortgage in whole or in part;
released the related Mortgaged Property in whole or in part from the lien of
such Mortgage; or executed any instrument of release, cancellation,
modification or satisfaction with respect thereto.
(12) A lender's policy of title insurance together with a condominium
endorsement and extended coverage endorsement, if applicable, in an amount at
least equal to the Cut-off Date Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage
Loan or a commitment (binder) to issue the same was effective on the date of
the origination of each Mortgage Loan, each such policy is valid and remains
in full force and effect, and each such policy was issued by a title insurer
qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is
located and acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and is in a form acceptable to FNMA or
FHLMC, which policy insures Countrywide and successor owners of indebtedness
secured by the insured Mortgage, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage
subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph (4) above; to the best of
Countrywide's knowledge, no claims have been made under such mortgage title
insurance policy and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including
Countrywide, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the
coverage of such mortgage title insurance policy.
(13) Each Mortgage Loan was originated (within the meaning of Section
3(a)(41) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by an entity that
satisfied at the time of origination the requirements of Section 3(a)(41) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
(14) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, all of the improvements
which were included for the purpose of determining the Appraised Value of the
Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction
lines of such property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach
upon the Mortgaged Property.
(15) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, no improvement located
on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable
zoning law or regulation. To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, all
inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with
respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect
to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to
certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made
or obtained from the appropriate authorities, unless the lack thereof would
not have a material adverse effect on the value of such Mortgaged Property,
and the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law.
(16) Each Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine, and
each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof,
enforceable in accordance with its terms
S-III-A-2
and under applicable law. To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, all parties
to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity to execute the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and each Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been
duly and properly executed by such parties.
(17) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loans have been fully disbursed,
there is no requirement for future advances thereunder and any and all
requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvements and as
to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All
costs, fees and expenses incurred in making, or closing or recording the
Mortgage Loans were paid.
(18) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable
provisions which render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate
for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the
security, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of
trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure.
(19) With respect to each Mortgage constituting a deed of trust, a
trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been
properly designated and currently so serves and is named in such Mortgage, and
no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Certificateholders to
the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's
sale after default by the Mortgagor.
(20) Each Mortgage Note and each Mortgage is in substantially one of
the forms acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, with such riders as have been
acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, as the case may be.
(21) There exist no deficiencies with respect to escrow deposits and
payments, if such are required, for which customary arrangements for repayment
thereof have not been made, and no escrow deposits or payments of other
charges or payments due Countrywide have been capitalized under the Mortgage
or the related Mortgage Note.
(22) The origination, underwriting and collection practices used by
Countrywide with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in all respects
legal, prudent and customary in the mortgage lending and servicing business.
(23) There is no pledged account or other security other than real
estate securing the Mortgagor's obligations.
(24) No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, or other
contingent interest feature.
(25) Each Mortgage Loan contains a customary "due on sale" clause.
(26) Approximately 2.75% and 0.93% of the Mortgage Loans in Loan
Group 1 and Loan Group 2, respectively, in each case by aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in that Loan Group as of the Cut-off
Date, provide for a Prepayment Charge.
(27) Each Mortgage Loan which had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at
origination in excess of 80.00% is the subject of a Primary Insurance Policy
that insures that portion of the principal balance equal to a specified
percentage times the sum of the remaining principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, the accrued interest thereon and the related foreclosure
expenses. The specified coverage percentage for mortgage loans with terms to
maturity of between 25 and 30 years
S-III-A-3
is 12% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 80.01% and 85.00%, 25% for
Loan-to-Value Ratios between 85.01% and 90.00%, 30% for Loan-to-Value Ratios
between 90.01% and 95.00% and 35% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 95.01% and
100%. The specified coverage percentage for mortgage loans with terms to
maturity of up to 20 years ranges from 6% to 12% for Loan-to-Value Ratios
between 80.01% and 85.00%, from 12% to 20% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between
85.01% to 90.00% and 20% to 25% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 90.01% to
95.00%. Each such Primary Insurance Policy is issued by a Qualified Insurer.
All provisions of any such Primary Insurance Policy have been and are being
complied with, any such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums
due thereunder have been paid. Any Mortgage subject to any such Primary
Insurance Policy obligates either the Mortgagor or the mortgagee thereunder to
maintain such insurance and to pay all premiums and charges in connection
therewith, subject, in each case, to the provisions of Section 3.09(b) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Mortgage Rate for each Mortgage Loan is
net of any such insurance premium.
(28) As of the Closing Date, as applicable, the improvements upon
each Mortgaged Property are covered by a valid and existing hazard insurance
policy with a generally acceptable carrier that provides for fire and extended
coverage and coverage for such other hazards as are customary in the area
where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal
to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing
such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal
balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds of such
policy shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from
becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, it is
included under the coverage afforded by a blanket policy for the condominium
unit. All such individual insurance policies and all flood policies referred
to in item (29) below contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Countrywide
or the original mortgagee, and its successors in interest, as mortgagee, and
Countrywide has received no notice that any premiums due and payable thereon
have not been paid; the Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to
maintain all such insurance including flood insurance at the Mortgagor's cost
and expense, and upon the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder
of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost
and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.
(29) If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the
Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special
flood hazards, a flood insurance policy in a form meeting the requirements of
the current guidelines of the Flood Insurance Administration is in effect with
respect to such Mortgaged Property with a generally acceptable carrier in an
amount representing coverage not less than the least of (A) the original
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (B) the minimum amount
required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, or (C)
the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, as amended.
(30) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, there is no proceeding
occurring, pending or threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the
Mortgaged Property.
(31) There is no material monetary default existing under any
Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and, to the best of Countrywide's
knowledge, there is no material event which, with the passage of time or with
notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the Mortgage or the
related Mortgage Note; and Countrywide has not waived any default, breach,
violation or event of acceleration.
S-III-A-4
(32) Each Mortgaged Property is improved by a one- to four-family
residential dwelling including condominium units and dwelling units in PUDs,
which, to the best of Countrywide's knowledge, does not include cooperatives
or mobile homes and does not constitute other than real property under state
law.
(33) Each Mortgage Loan is being master serviced by the Master
Servicer.
(34) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date have been
consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage,
and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest
rate and single repayment term reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The
consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of
the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Note does not permit or obligate the Master
Servicer to make future advances to the Mortgagor at the option of the
Mortgagor.
(35) All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water,
sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which
previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been
established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains
unpaid and which has been assessed, but is not yet due and payable. Except for
(A) payments in the nature of escrow payments, and (B) interest accruing from
the date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the Mortgage
proceeds, whichever is later, to the day which precedes by one month the Due
Date of the first installment of principal and interest, including without
limitation, taxes and insurance payments, the Master Servicer has not advanced
funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a
party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any
amount required by the Mortgage.
(36) Other than with respect to any Streamlined Documentation
Mortgage Loan as to which the loan-to-value ratio of the related Original
Mortgage Loan was less than 90% at the time of the origination of such
Original Mortgage Loan, prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan
application, an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property was obtained from
a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by the originator, who had no interest,
direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the
security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of the Mortgage Loan; such appraisal is in a form acceptable to
FNMA and FHLMC.
(37) None of the Mortgage Loans are graduated payment mortgage loans
or a growing equity mortgage loans, and none of the Mortgage Loans are subject
to a buydown or similar arrangement.
(38) Any leasehold estate securing a Mortgage Loan has a term of not
less than five years in excess of the term of the related Mortgage Loan.
(39) The Mortgage Loans were selected from among the outstanding
fixed-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans in the portfolios of the Sellers
at the Closing Date as to which the representations and warranties made as to
the Mortgage Loans set forth in this Schedule III-A can be made. Such
selection was not made in a manner intended to adversely affect the interests
of Certificateholders.
(40) Each Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 has a
payment date on or before the Due Date in the month of the first Distribution
Date.
S-III-A-5
(41) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which an affidavit has
been delivered to the Trustee certifying that the original Mortgage Note is a
Lost Mortgage Note, if such Mortgage Loan is subsequently in default, the
enforcement of such Mortgage Loan or of the related Mortgage by or on behalf
of the Trustee will not be materially adversely affected by the absence of the
original Mortgage Note. A "Lost Mortgage Note" is a Mortgage Note the original
of which was permanently lost or destroyed and has not been replaced.
(42) The Mortgage Loans, individually and in the aggregate, conform
in all material respects to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus
Supplement.
(43) The aggregate principal balance of the Discount Mortgage Loans
for Loan Group 1 and Loan Group 2 will not exceed $24,907,731.14 and
$959,000.00, respectively.
(44) Each Mortgage Loan was underwritten in all material respects
in accordance with Countrywide's underwriting guidelines as set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement.
(45) None of the Mortgage Loans are subject to the Georgia Fair
Lending Act, as amended.
(46) None of the Mortgage Loans are "high cost" loans as defined by
applicable predatory and abusive lending laws.
(47) None of the Mortgage Loans are covered by the Home Ownership
and Equity Protection Act of 1994 ("HOEPA").
(48) No Mortgage Loan is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the
New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003 (N.J.S.A. 46:10B-22
et seq.).
(49) No Mortgage Loan is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the
New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004 (N.M. Stat. Xxx.

in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7,

"High Cost Home Loan" as defined in the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act,
effective January 1, 2005 (Ind. Code Xxx. Sections 24-9-1-1 through 24-9-1-9).
(52) All of the Mortgage Loans were originated in compliance with all
applicable laws, including, but not limited to, all applicable anti-predatory
and abusive lending laws.
S-III-A-6
(53) No Mortgage Loan is a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan, as
applicable, and with respect to the foregoing, the terms "High Cost Loan" and
"Covered Loan" have the meaning assigned to them in the then current Standard
& Poor's LEVELS(R) Version 5.6c Glossary Revised, Appendix E which is attached

CWMBS, INC.
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as CWMBS, Inc. Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein collectively called the "Certificates"),
and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created by
the Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account
for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any
liability under the Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations
of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business
Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing on the first
Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the applicable
Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to
Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such
Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement. The Record Date applicable to
each Distribution Date is the last Business Day of the month next preceding
the month of such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days
prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the
conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such
Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or
such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such
final distribution.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
E-1
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates affected by such
amendment evidencing the requisite Percentage Interest, as provided in the
Agreement. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be
conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof,
in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of
the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency maintained by
the Trustee in New York, New York, accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder's attorney duly authorized
in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in
authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest
in the Trust Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates
are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized
denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Sellers and the Trustee and any
agent of the Depositor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither
the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice
to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the Pool Stated Principal Balance is
less than or equal to 10% of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance, the
Master Servicer will have the option, subject to the limitations set forth in
the Agreement, to repurchase, in whole, from the Trust Fund all remaining
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans at a
purchase price determined as provided in the Agreement. In the event that no
such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created
by the Agreement will terminate upon the later of the maturity or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund or the disposition of all property in respect
thereof and the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to
be distributed pursuant to the Agreement. In no event, however, will the trust
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the
death of the last survivor of the descendants living at the date of the
Agreement of a certain person named in the Agreement.

[FORM OF] TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT
CWMBS, Inc.
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
Series 200_-_
STATE OF )
) ss.:
COUNTY OF )
The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1. The undersigned is an officer of _________________, the proposed
Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate (the
"Certificate") issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as
of _________ __, 2___ (the "Agreement"), by and among CWMBS, Inc., as depositor
(the "Depositor"), Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. (the "Company"), as a Seller,
Park Granada LLC, as a Seller, Park Monaco, Inc., as a Seller, Park Sienna LLC,
as a Seller (and together with the Company, Park Granada and Park Monaco, the
"Sellers"), Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP, as Master Servicer and The
Bank of New York, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein
or in Exhibit 1 hereto, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this
affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
2. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject
to Title I of ERISA or to section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
nor is it acting on behalf of or with plan assets of any such plan. The
Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the
Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee will endeavor to remain a
Permitted Transferee for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate. The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate for its own account.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a
tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability
for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit
that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax
will be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any
time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an
I-1
interest in such entity. The Transferee understands that such tax will not be
imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to
the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted
Transferee and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that
such affidavit is false. (For this purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a
regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust
fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as
may be provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in
pass-through entities as a nominee for another Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c)
of the Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by
reference) and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the
restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the
Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by
and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and the
restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands
and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall
render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in
the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be
Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit J-1 to the Agreement (a "Transferor Certificate") to
the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to
which the Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.
7. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect
to the Class A-R Certificates.
8. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is
______________.
9. The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code section
7701(a)(30) and, unless the Transferor (or any subsequent transferor)
expressly waives such requirement, will not cause income from the Certificate
to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within
the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of the Transferee or another
U.S. taxpayer.
10. The Transferee is aware that the Class A-R Certificates may be
"noneconomic residual interests" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.860E-1(c) and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest
will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such
residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede
the assessment or collection of tax. In addition, as the Holder of a
noneconomic residual interest, the Transferee may incur tax liabilities in
excess of any cash
I-2
flows generated by the interest and the Transferee hereby represents that it
intends to pay taxes associated with holding the residual interest as they
become due.
11. The Transferee has provided financial statements or other
financial information requested by the Transferor in connection with the
transfer of the Certificate to permit the Transferor to assess the financial
capability of the Transferee to pay such taxes. The Transferee historically
has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they
come due in the future.
12. Unless the Transferor (or any subsequent transferor) expressly
waives such requirement, the Transferee (and any subsequent transferee)
certifies (or will certify), respectively, that the transfer satisfies either
the "Asset Test" imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(5) or the
"Formula Test" imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(7).

WAIVER OF REQUIREMENT THAT TRANSFEREE CERTIFIES TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATE
SATISFIES CERTAIN REGULATORY "SAFE HARBORS"
The Transferor hereby waives the requirement that the Transferee
certify that the transfer of the Certificate satisfies either the "Asset Test"
imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(5) or the "Formula Test"
imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(7).

EXHIBIT 1 to
EXHIBIT I
Certain Definitions
"Asset Test": A transfer satisfies the Asset Test if: (i) At the
time of the transfer, and at the close of each of the transferee's two fiscal
years preceding the transferee's fiscal year of transfer, the transferee's
gross assets for financial reporting purposes exceed $100 million and its net
assets for financial reporting purposes exceed $10 million. The gross assets
and net assets of a transferee do not include any obligation of any "related
person" or any other asset if a principal purpose for holding or acquiring the
other asset is to permit the transferee to satisfy such monetary conditions;
(ii) The transferee must be an "eligible corporation" and must agree in
writing that any subsequent transfer of the interest will be to another
eligible corporation in a transaction that satisfies paragraphs 9 through 11
of this Transfer Affidavit and the Asset Test. A transfer fails to meet the
Asset Test if the transferor knows, or has reason to know, that the transferee
will not honor the restrictions on subsequent transfers of the Certificate;
and (iii) A reasonable person would not conclude, based on the facts and
circumstances known to the transferor on or before the date of the transfer,
that the taxes associated with the Certificate will not be paid. The
consideration given to the transferee to acquire the Certificate is only one
factor to be considered, but the transferor will be deemed to know that the
transferee cannot or will not pay if the amount of consideration is so low
compared to the liabilities assumed that a reasonable person would conclude
that the taxes associated with holding the Certificate will not be paid. For
purposes of applying the Asset Test, (i) an "eligible corporation" means any
domestic C corporation (as defined in section 1361(a)(2) of the Code) other
than (A) a corporation which is exempt from, or is not subject to, tax under
section 11 of the Code, (B) an entity described in section 851(a) or 856(a) of
the Code, (C) A REMIC, or (D) an organization to which part I of subchapter T
of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code applies; (ii) a "related person" is any
person that (A) bears a relationship to the transferee enumerated in section
267(b) or 707(b)(1) of the Code, using "20 percent" instead of "50 percent"
where it appears under the provisions, or (B) is under common control (within
the meaning of section 52(a) and (b)) with the transferee.
"Formula Test": A transfer satisfies the formula test if the
present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the
Certificate does not exceed the sum of (i) the present value of any
consideration given to the transferee to acquire the Certificate; (ii) the
present value of the expected future distributions on the Certificate; and
(iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding
the Certificate as the issuing REMIC generates losses. For purposes of
applying the Formula Test: (i) The transferee is assumed to pay tax at a rate
equal to the highest rate of tax specified in section 11(b)(1) of the Code. If
the transferee has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under section
55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income
in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate, then the
tax rate specified in section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of
the highest rate specified in section 11(b)(1) of the Code; (ii) The transfer
must satisfy paragraph 9 of the Transfer Affidavit; and (iii) Present values
are computed using a
I-6
discount rate equal to the Federal short-term rate prescribed by section
1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period
used by the taxpayer.
"Ownership Interest": As to any Certificate, any ownership
interest in such Certificate, including any interest in such Certificate as
the Holder thereof and any other interest therein, whether direct or indirect,
legal or beneficial.
"Permitted Transferee": Any person other than (i) the United
States, any State or political subdivision thereof, or any agency or
instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (ii) a foreign government,
International Organization or any agency or instrumentality of either of the
foregoing, (iii) an organization (except certain farmers' cooperatives
described in section 521 of the Code) that is exempt from tax imposed by
Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by section 511 of the Code on
unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in
section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to any Class A-R Certificate,
(iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in section
1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code, (v) an "electing large partnership" as defined in
section 775 of the Code, (vi) a Person that is not a citizen or resident of
the United States, a corporation, partnership, or other entity (treated as a
corporation or a partnership for federal income tax purposes) created or
organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia, or an estate whose income from sources without the
United States is includible in gross income for United States federal income
tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States, or a trust if a court within the United
States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the
trust and one or more United States persons have authority to control all
substantial decisions of the trustor unless such Person has furnished the
transferor and the Trustee with a duly completed Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI, and (vii) any other Person so designated by the Trustee based upon an
Opinion of Counsel that the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate to such Person may cause any REMIC formed under the Agreement to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are Outstanding.
The terms "United States," "State" and "International Organization" shall have
the meanings set forth in section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions. A
corporation will not be treated as an instrumentality of the United States or
of any State or political subdivision thereof for these purposes if all of its
activities are subject to tax and, with the exception of the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by
such government unit.
"Person": Any individual, corporation, limited liability company,
partnership, joint venture, bank, joint stock company, trust (including any
beneficiary thereof), unincorporated organization or government or any agency
or political subdivision thereof.
"Transfer": Any direct or indirect transfer or sale of any
Ownership Interest in a Certificate, including the acquisition of a
Certificate by the Depositor.
"Transferee": Any Person who is acquiring by Transfer any Ownership
Interest in a Certificate.

EXHIBIT 2 to
EXHIBIT I
Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement
(c) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and
the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(1) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(2) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax
Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
registration in the name of, or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate to,
an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
Interest in a Class A-R Certificate may be registered on the Closing
Date or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the
Transfer of any Class A-R Certificate unless, the Trustee shall have
been furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial
owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
I.
(3) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its
Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer
Affidavit from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee,
trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Class A-R
Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class
A-R Certificate, or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate to any other Person, if it has actual knowledge
that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee.
(4) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest
in a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
Section 5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no
rights in the purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall
become a Holder of a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the
provisions of this Section 5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted
Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive
to the date of registration of Transfer of such Class A-R Certificate.
The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
registration of Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this Section 5.02(c) or for making any
payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any
other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered after receipt of the
related Transfer Affidavit and Transferor Certificate. The Trustee shall
be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Class A-R
Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted
I-8
Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as
it became other than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such
Class A-R Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so
recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to
the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.
(5) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available,
upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information
necessary to compute any tax imposed under section 860E(e) of the Code
as a result of a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate to any Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Class A-R Certificate set forth in this
section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Class A-R Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Sellers or the
Master Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will
not cause any constituent REMIC of any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result
in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another
Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement that, based on
an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to
ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Class
A-R Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that
is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the
Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as
Covered are included in Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they
