of
a regular interest in the Upper-Tier REMIC, as described herein. In addition,
the Class 1-A1, Class 1-A2, Class 1-B1, Class 1-B2, Class 2-A1A, Class 2-A1B,
Class 2-A1C and the Group 2 Subordinate Certificates represent the right to

Basis
Risk Reserve Fund and the portion of the Yield Maintenance Account related
to

The
Lower-Tier REMIC will hold as its assets all of the assets constituting the
Trust Fund (exclusive of the Excluded Trust Assets) and will issue interests
(the “Lower-Tier
Regular Interests”)
(which
will be uncertificated and will represent the regular interests in the
Lower-Tier REMIC) and a residual interest (the “Class LT-R Interest”) which will
also be uncertificated and which will represent the sole class of residual
interest in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Trustee will hold the Lower-Tier Regular
Interests as assets of the Upper-Tier REMIC.
For
purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the startup day for the Lower-Tier REMIC
and
the Upper-Tier REMIC is the Closing Date. All REMIC regular and residual
interests created hereby will be retired on or before the Latest Possible

recorded, each assignment referred to in Section 2.01(v) above with respect
to a
Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan.
60
The
Trustee agrees to execute and deliver to the Depositor on or prior to the
Closing Date an acknowledgment of receipt of the original Mortgage Note (with
any exceptions noted), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit G-1
hereto.
If
the
original lender’s title insurance policy, or a certified copy thereof, was not
delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(vii) above, the Seller shall deliver or
cause
to be delivered to the Trustee the original or a copy of a written commitment
or
interim binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance
or
escrow company, with the original or a certified copy thereof to be delivered
to
the Trustee, promptly upon receipt thereof, but in any case within 175 days
of
the Closing Date. The Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee, promptly upon receipt thereof, any other documents constituting a
part
of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan sold to the
Depositor by the Seller, including, but not limited to, any original documents
evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.
For
Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date
and prior to the Closing Date, the Seller, in lieu of delivering the above
documents, herewith delivers to the Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf
of
the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate which shall include a statement to the
effect that all amounts received in connection with such prepayment that are
required to be deposited in the Distribution Account have been so deposited.
All
original documents that are not delivered to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
Fund shall be held by the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer in trust
for the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the
Certificateholders.
Upon
discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or
that
a document is missing from, a Mortgage File, the Seller shall have 90 days
to
cure such defect or deliver such missing document to the Trustee. If the Seller
does not cure such defect or deliver such missing document within such time
period, the Seller shall either repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage
Loan
in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof.
The
Depositor herewith delivers to the Trustee an executed copy of the Mortgage
Loan
Purchase Agreement.
SECTION
2.02. Acceptance by Trustee.
The
Trustee hereby accepts its appointment as Custodian hereunder and acknowledges
the receipt, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the review
described below and any exceptions noted on the exception report described
in
the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above
and
all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that,
in its capacity as Custodian, it holds and will hold such documents and the
other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds
or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition
of
“Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and
future Certificateholders.
61
The
Trustee further agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review
each Mortgage File delivered to it and to certify and deliver to the Depositor,
the Seller and each Rating Agency an interim certification in substantially
the
form attached hereto as Exhibit G-2, within 90 days after the Closing Date
(or,
with respect to any document delivered after the Startup Day, within 45 days
of
receipt and with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage, within five
Business Days after the assignment thereof) that, as to each Mortgage Loan
listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in
full
or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed
thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents
required to be reviewed by it pursuant Section 2.01 of this Agreement are
in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and have
not been mutilated, damaged or torn and relate to such Mortgage Loan and
(iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the
information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items
(i), (ii) and (xv) of the Mortgage Loan Schedule accurately reflects information
set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting
such review, the Trustee is under no duty or obligation to inspect, review
or
examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented
purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than
what they purport to be on their face.
No
later
than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor
and the Seller a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
G-3
evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon.
If,
in
the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the
case
may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee finds any document
or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or not conforming
to the requirements set forth herein, at the conclusion of its review the
Trustee (or the Custodian as its designated agent) shall promptly notify the
Seller, the Depositor and the Master Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery
by the Seller or the Depositor (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of such breach) of a breach of any of the representations and
warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect
of any Mortgage Loan that materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or
the
interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties
to
this Agreement.
The
Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein
contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage
Notes
and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any
liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee and that such property
not be part of the Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event
of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed
to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the
Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee
a
first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right,
title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes
and
the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law.
62
SECTION
2.03. Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Seller.
(a) Upon
discovery or receipt of written notice that a document does not comply with
the
requirements of Section 2.01 hereof, or that a document is missing from, a
Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty
or
covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or in Section 2.04 or
Section 2.08 hereof in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely
affects the value of that Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders, the Trustee (or the Custodian as its designated agent)
shall
promptly notify the Seller of such noncompliance, missing document or breach
and
request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such noncompliance
or breach within 90 days from the date that the Seller was notified of such
missing document, noncompliance or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver
such missing document or cure such noncompliance or breach in all material
respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation
under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and cause the Seller to repurchase
that Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to
the
Determination Date following the expiration of such 90 day period (subject
to
Section 2.03(e) below); provided,
however,
that, in
connection with any such breach that could not reasonably have been cured within
such 90 day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such breach
within such 90 day period, the Seller shall be permitted to proceed thereafter
diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within the additional period
provided under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; and, provided
further,
that,
in the case of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made
by
the Seller in Schedule II to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller
shall be obligated to cure such breach or purchase the affected Mortgage Loans
for the Purchase Price or, if the Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged
Property acquired with respect thereto has been sold, then the Seller shall
pay,
in lieu of the Purchase Price, any excess of the Purchase Price over the Net
Liquidation Proceeds received upon such sale. The Purchase Price for the
repurchased Mortgage Loan or such other amount due shall be deposited in the
Distribution Account on or prior to the next Determination Date after the
Seller’s obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan arises. The Trustee, upon
receipt of written certification from the Securities Administrator of the
related deposit in the Distribution Account, shall release to the Seller the
related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer
or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to
it
and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard
to such Mortgage File (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no
responsibility for determining the sufficiency of such assignment for its
intended purpose). In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided
above, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust
Fund
(in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one
or
more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d) below. It is understood and agreed
that
the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for)
any
Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a
constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the Seller respecting such
omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders.
63
The
Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation of the Seller
to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or defective documentation
or
on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant as described
in
this Section 2.03(a).
Any
costs
and expenses incurred by the Trustee enforcing the obligations of the Seller
under this Section 2.03(a) shall be reimbursable to the Trustee from amounts
on
deposit in the Distribution Account.
(b) If
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.03(a), the Seller repurchases or
otherwise removes from the Trust Fund a Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, the Seller will take (or shall cause the applicable Servicer to take),
at
the expense of the Seller (with the cooperation of the Depositor, the Trustee
and the Master Servicer), such actions as are necessary either (i) cause MERS
to
execute and deliver an Assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer
the
Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed
from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and
regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS® System the Seller or
its designee as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.
(c) [Reserved].
(d) Any
substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans
made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) above must be effected prior to the last
Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to any Deleted
Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering
to
the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage
Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other documents
and
agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section
2.01 hereof (subject to the exceptions provided therein), together with an
Officers’ Certificate stating that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan
satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment
(as
described below), if any, in connection with such substitution; provided,
however,
that, in
the case of any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan,
the Seller shall provide such documents and take such other action with respect
to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as are required pursuant to Section
2.01 hereof. The Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within five Business Days thereafter, shall review
such documents as specified in Section 2.02 hereof and deliver to the related
Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans,
a
certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-2, with
any
exceptions noted thereon. Within 180 days of the date of substitution, the
Trustee shall deliver to the Seller and the Master Servicer a certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 hereto with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any exceptions noted thereon. Monthly
Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month
of
substitution are not part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller.
For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect
the collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan in
the
Due Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller,
as the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts
subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Seller
shall
give or cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that such
substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect
the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement
and
the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall
deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon
such
substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute
part of the Trust Fund and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of
this
Agreement and, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, in the case of a substitution
effected by the Seller all representations and warranties thereof included
in
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and all representations and warranties
thereof set forth in Section 2.04 hereof, in each case as of the date of
substitution.
64
For
any
month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller shall determine, and
provide written certification to the Trustee and the Seller as to, the amount
(each, a “Substitution
Adjustment”),
if
any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans
exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan,
of
the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with
one
month’s interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Loan Rate. On
or prior to the next Determination Date after the Seller’s obligation to
repurchase the related Deleted Mortgage Loan arises, the Seller will deliver
or
cause to be delivered to the Securities Administrator for deposit in the
Distribution Account an amount equal to the related Substitution Adjustment,
if
any, and the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and a written certification from the Securities Administrator
of
its receipt of the deposit to the Distribution Account, shall release to the
Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the
Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
In
addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution (either specifically
or as a class of transactions) will not cause an Adverse REMIC
Event.
If such
Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such substitution may only be
effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be
given.
(e) Upon
discovery by the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Depositor 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 within
two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties. In
connection therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier
of
discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage
Loan.
Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set
forth in Section 2.03(a) above, if made by the Seller. The Trustee shall
reconvey to the Seller 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.
65
SECTION
2.04. Representations and Warranties of the Seller with Respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
The
Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders that the representations and warranties made by the Seller
pursuant to Schedule II to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement are hereby
being
made to the Trustee and are true and correct as of the Closing
Date.
With
respect to the representations and warranties incorporated in this Section
2.04
that are made to the best of the Seller’s knowledge or as to which the Seller
has no knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee that the substance of such representation and warranty
is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value
of
the related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders
then, notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the
substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate at the time
the
representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach
of
the applicable representation or warranty.
Within
90
days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such missing or materially
defective documentation or any such breach of a representation or warranty,
the
Seller shall promptly deliver such missing document or cure such defect or
breach in all material respects or, in the event such defect or breach cannot
be
cured, the Seller shall repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or cause the
removal of such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute for it one
or
more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, in either case, in accordance with
Section 2.03 hereof.
It
is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties incorporated
in
this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee
and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. Upon discovery by any of
the
Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any
of
the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely
affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of the
Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties, and in no event later than two Business Days from
the date of such discovery. It is understood and agreed that the obligations
of
the Seller set forth in Section 2.03(a) hereof to cure, substitute for or
repurchase a related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement constitute the sole remedies available to the Certificateholders
or to
the Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of the representations and
warranties incorporated in this Section 2.04.

The

Servicers to service and administer their respective Mortgage Loans in
accordance with the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement and the Master
Servicing Guide, and shall have full power and authority to do any and all
things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master
servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the

adjustments to the Servicers’ and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such
reconciled and corrected information, prepare the statements specified in
Section 5.04 and any other information and statements required hereunder. The
Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring
with
the actual remittances of the Servicers to the related Servicing Accounts
pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreements.
70
The
Trustee shall furnish the Servicers and the Master Servicer with any limited
powers of attorney and other documents in form acceptable to the Trustee,
necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicers and the Master Servicer to
service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property, which
limited powers of attorney shall provide that the Trustee will not be liable
for
the actions or omissions of the Servicers or Master Servicer in exercising
such
powers.
The
Master Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent (i) initiate any
action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating
the Master Servicer’s representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the
intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered
to
do business in any state. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for
any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in
connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney
by
the Master Servicer.
The
Trustee shall provide access to the records and documentation in possession
of
the Trustee (including in its capacity as Custodian hereunder) regarding the
related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and the servicing thereof to the
Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the
FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request
and
during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee; provided,
however,
that,
unless otherwise required by law, the Trustee shall not be required to provide
access to such records and documentation if the provision thereof would violate
the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee shall allow
representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and
documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that
covers the Trustee’s actual costs.
The
Trustee, upon the written request of the Master Servicer, shall execute and
deliver to the related Servicer and the Master Servicer any court pleadings,
requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or desirable to (i) the
foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any
legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor;
or
(iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage or otherwise available at law or equity.
71
SECTION
3.02. REMIC-Related Covenants.
For
as
long as each REMIC created hereunder shall exist, the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator shall act in accordance herewith to treat each such REMIC as
a
REMIC, and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall comply with any
directions of the Depositor, the related Servicer or the Master Servicer to
assure such continuing treatment. In particular, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator and the Master Servicer shall not (a) sell or knowingly permit
the
sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any investment of
deposits in an Account unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the
Mortgage Loans or is otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement or the
Trustee has received a REMIC Opinion prepared at the expense of the Trust Fund;
and (b) other than with respect to a substitution pursuant to the Mortgage
Loan
Purchase Agreement or Section 2.03 or 2.04 of this Agreement or as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, as applicable, accept any contribution to any REMIC
after the Startup Day without receipt of a REMIC Opinion.
SECTION
3.03. Monitoring of Servicers.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Trustee (on behalf
of
the Trust Fund) and the Depositor the compliance by each Servicer with its
duties under the related Servicing Agreement. In the review of each Servicer’s
activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer’s certificate of the
Servicer with regard to such Servicer’s compliance with the terms of its
Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment,
determines that a Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its Servicing
Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing Agreement
with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute
grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor
and
the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take
such
other action as it deems appropriate.
(b) The
Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders,
shall (acting as agent of the Trust Fund when enforcing the Trust Fund’s rights
under each Servicing Agreement) (i) enforce the obligations of each Servicer
under the related Servicing Agreement, and (ii) in the event that a Servicer
fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing
Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and
obligations of such Servicer thereunder and act as servicer of the related
Mortgage Loans or enter into a new Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer
selected by the Master Servicer which the Master Servicer shall cause the
Trustee to acknowledge; provided,
however,
it is
understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period
of
transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can
be
fully transferred to such successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including,
without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing
Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such
form
and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer,
in
its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related
Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement
at
its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to
prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master
Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses
in
pursuing such action.
72
(c) To
the
extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any
termination of a Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer
and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer with respect to any Servicing
Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses
and
all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the
potential termination of the Servicer as a result of an event of default by
such
Servicer and (ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer
of servicing, including all servicing files and all servicing data and the
completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required
by the successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the
servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor servicer to service the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement) are not
fully
and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer shall
be
entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Distribution
Account.
(d) The
Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with the remittance
requirements and other obligations set forth in the related Servicing
Agreement.
(e) If
the
Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability for the
representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it
replaces.
SECTION
3.04. Fidelity Bond.
The
Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity
bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with
respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such
Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance
of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions
insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount
generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or
trustees.
SECTION
3.05. Power to Act; Procedures.
The
Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full
power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of
Article X hereof, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or
desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Trust Fund 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, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds,
Liquidation Proceeds and Recoveries and (iv) to effectuate, in its own name,
on
behalf the Trust Fund, or in the name of the Trust Fund, foreclosure or other
conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage
Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and
the
related Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided,
however,
that
the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities under
Section 3.03, shall not permit any Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally
take
any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably
within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein,
that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be,
would result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Master Servicer has received
an Opinion of Counsel (but not at the expense of the Master Servicer) to the
effect that the contemplated action will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.
The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a
Servicing Officer, with any limited powers of attorney empowering the Master
Servicer or any Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction
or
cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose
upon
or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend
in
any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property,
in
accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and
the
Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer
may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer
the
Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance
with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no
liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer
or
any Servicer). In instituting foreclosures or similar proceedings, the Master
Servicer shall institute such proceedings either in its own name on behalf
of
the Trust Fund or in the name of the Trust Fund (or cause the related Servicer,
pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement, to institute such proceedings
either in the name of such Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund or in the name
of the Trust Fund), unless otherwise required by law or otherwise appropriate.
If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been advised that it is likely that
the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if
taken in the name of the Trust Fund or the Trustee on its behalf or that the
Trust Fund or the Trustee, as applicable, would be adversely affected under
the
“doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name,
the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund,
in
the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof. In the
performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent
contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action
in
the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee on behalf
of
the Trust Fund.
73
SECTION
3.06. Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
To
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement and to the extent Mortgage
Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause
the Servicers to enforce such clauses in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with
the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan
is
assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
SECTION
3.07. Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon
becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt
by
any Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes for payment to Certificateholders on the
next
Distribution Date, the Servicer will, if required under the applicable Servicing
Agreement, promptly furnish to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, two
copies of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto signed
by a Servicing Officer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will,
in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the related
Servicing Account maintained by the applicable Servicer pursuant to Section
4.01
or by the applicable Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Agreement have been
or
will be so deposited) and shall request that the Trustee (or the Custodian,
on
behalf of the Trustee) deliver to the applicable Servicer the related Mortgage
File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee (or the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee), shall promptly release the related
Mortgage File to the applicable Servicer and the Trustee (and the Custodian,
if
applicable) shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage
File. Upon any such payment in full, each Servicer is authorized, to give,
as
agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the
Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without
recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which
instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered
to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such
payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection
with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall
be
chargeable to the related Servicing Account.
74
(b) From
time
to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
Loan
and in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall
execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by
a
Servicer or the Master Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee)
and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee
(or
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee), shall, upon the request of a Servicer
or the Master Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee (the Custodian, on behalf
of
the Trustee), of two copies of a request for release signed by a Servicing
Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit F (or in a mutually agreeable
electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate
from
a Servicing Officer), release the related Mortgage File held in its possession
or control to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. Such trust
receipt shall obligate the Servicer or the Master Servicer to return the
Mortgage File to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) when
the need therefor by the Servicer or the Master Servicer no longer exists unless
the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a
certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the
Mortgage File shall be released by the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf
of
the Trustee), to the Servicer or the Master Servicer.
SECTION
3.08. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be Held
for Trust Fund.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall transmit and each Servicer (to the extent required by
the
related Servicing Agreement) shall transmit to the Trustee (or Custodian) such
documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer
or
such Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof, or in
the
case of the Servicers, the applicable Servicing Agreement, to be delivered
to
the Trustee (or Custodian). Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by
a
Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by
the
Master Servicer or by a Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds
or
Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of
the
Trust Fund and the Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to
retain or withdraw from the Distribution Account the Master Servicing Fee,
any
additional compensation pursuant to Section 3.14 and any other amounts provided
in this Agreement, and to the right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing
Fee
and any other amounts as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement. The
Master Servicer shall, and (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement) shall cause each Servicer to, provide access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, its agents and
accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business
hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks
or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the
supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners
of
any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so
required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other
regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only upon
reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices
of
the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master
Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such
information.
75
(b) 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, Insurance
Proceeds or Recoveries, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf
of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole
and exclusive property of the Trust Fund; provided,
however,
that
the Master Servicer and each Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against,
and
deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to
the
Master Servicer or such Servicer under this Agreement or the applicable
Servicing Agreement.
SECTION
3.09. Standard Hazard Insurance and Flood Insurance Policies.
(a) For
each
Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the Master Servicer shall enforce
any obligation of the Servicers under the related Servicing Agreements to
maintain or cause to be maintained standard fire and casualty insurance and,
where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the provisions of
the
related Servicing Agreements. It is understood and agreed that such insurance
shall be with insurers meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the
applicable Servicing Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional
insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on property
acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other than pursuant to such applicable
laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require
such
additional insurance.
(b) Pursuant
to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts collected by the Servicers or the Master
Servicer, or by any Servicer, under any insurance policies (other than amounts
to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the
related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Distribution Account, subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.03. Any cost incurred by the Master
Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor
defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under
the
Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit; provided,
however,
that
the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes
of
calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders and shall be
recoverable by the Master Servicer or such Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02
and
4.03.
76
SECTION
3.10. Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds.
The
Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement) cause the related Servicer to, prepare and present on behalf of
the
Trustee, the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders all claims under the
Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement,
compromise or enforcement of the insured’s claim) as shall be necessary to
realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master
Servicer (or disbursed to a Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in
respect of such policies, bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in
the
Distribution Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are
to
be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as
a
condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan
to the insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited
(or remitted).
SECTION
3.11. Maintenance of the Primary Insurance Policies.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Servicer (to the extent such
action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any
action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Insurance
Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or
Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use
its
best reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under
the
related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and effect (to the extent that
the
Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance), primary
mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan (including any lender-paid
Primary Insurance Policy) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall
not, and shall not permit any Servicer (to the extent required under the related
Servicing Agreement) to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Insurance
Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage
Note and is required to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with
the
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.
(b) The
Master Servicer agrees to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under
the
related Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf of the Trustee, the Trust
Fund and the 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. Pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policies shall be
deposited in the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
4.03.
SECTION
3.12. Trustee to Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and
Documents.
The
Trustee (or the Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), shall retain possession
and custody of the originals (to the extent available) of any Primary Insurance
Policies, or certificate of insurance if applicable and available, and any
certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time
as contemplated by this Agreement and which come into its possession. Until
all
amounts distributable in respect of the Certificates have been distributed
in
full and the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under
this
Agreement, the Trustee (or its Custodian, if any, as directed by the Trustee)
shall also retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance
with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master
Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or
the
Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), upon the execution or receipt thereof
the originals of any Primary Insurance Policies, any certificates of renewal,
and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage
File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to
time.
77
SECTION
3.13. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
Subject
to Sections 3.24 and 3.25 herein, the Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer
(to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) either (i) to
foreclose upon, repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of
Mortgaged 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 or (ii) as an alternative to foreclosure,
to
sell such defaulted Mortgage Loans at fair market value to third-parties, if
the
Servicer, or the Subservicer on its behalf, reasonably believes that such sale
would maximize proceeds to the Trust Fund (on a present value basis) with
respect to those Mortgage Loans, all in accordance with the applicable Servicing
Agreement.
SECTION
3.14. Additional Compensation to the Master Servicer.
Pursuant
to Section 4.02(c), certain income and gain realized from any investment of
funds in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Master
Servicer as additional compensation. Servicing compensation in the form of
assumption fees, if any, late payment charges, as collected, if any, or
otherwise (but, unless otherwise specifically permitted in a Servicing
Agreement, not including any Prepayment Penalty Amounts) shall be retained
by
the applicable Servicer, or the Master Servicer, and shall not be deposited
in
the related Servicing Account or Distribution Account. The
Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor except as provided in this Agreement. The amount of
the
aggregate compensation payable as set forth in this Section 3.14 plus the Master
Servicing Fee due to the Master Servicer in respect of any Distribution Date
shall be reduced in accordance with Section 5.06.
SECTION
3.15. REO Property.
(a) In
the
event the Trust Fund (or the Trustee on its behalf) acquires ownership of any
REO Property in respect of any related Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate
of
sale shall be issued to the Trust Fund, or if required under applicable law,
to
the Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer
shall, to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, cause
the
applicable Servicer to sell, any REO Property as expeditiously as possible
(and
in no event later than three years after acquisition) and in accordance with
the
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall
cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in
the
manner and to the extent required by the applicable Servicing Agreement, in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions and in a manner that does not result in
a
tax on “net income from foreclosure property” or cause such REO Property to fail
to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code.
78
(b) The
Master Servicer shall, to the extent required by the related Servicing
Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to deposit all funds collected and
received in connection with the operation of any REO Property in the related
Servicing Account.
(c) The
Master Servicer and the applicable Servicer, upon the final disposition of
any
REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed
Advances and other unreimbursed advances as well as any unpaid Servicing Fees
from Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition
of
such REO Property; provided, that any such unreimbursed Advances as well as
any
unpaid Servicing Fees may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, prior
to
final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net amounts derived
from such REO Property.
(d) To
the
extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement, the Liquidation Proceeds
from the final disposition of the REO Property, net of any payment to the Master
Servicer and the applicable Servicer as provided above shall be deposited in
the
related Servicing Account on or prior to the applicable Determination Date
in
the month following receipt thereof and be remitted by wire transfer in
immediately available funds to the Master Servicer for deposit into the related
Distribution Account on the next succeeding Servicer Remittance
Date.
SECTION
3.16. Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.
(a) Assessments
of Compliance.
(i) By
March
10 (with a 5 calendar day cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007,
the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, each at its own expense,
shall furnish, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by it to furnish or otherwise make available, each at its
own expense, to the Securities Administrator and the Depositor (provided that
the Master Servicer shall furnish copies of each such report received by it
from
the Servicers to the Depositor), a report on an assessment of compliance with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria that contains (A) a statement by such party
of
its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria, (B) a statement that such party used the Servicing Criteria to assess
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (C) such party’s assessment of
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for the fiscal year
covered by the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section 3.19(b) and
for each fiscal year thereafter, whether or not a Form 10-K is required to
be
filed, including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance
with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the
nature and status thereof, and (D) a statement that a registered public
accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party’s assessment of
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for such period.
79
(ii) No
later
than the end of each fiscal year for the Trust Fund for which a 10-K is required
to be filed, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, in its capacity as Custodian,
shall each forward to the Securities Administrator and the Depositor the name
of
each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it and what Relevant Servicing
Criteria will be addressed in the report on assessment of compliance prepared
by
such Servicing Function Participant (provided, however, that the Master Servicer
need not provide such information to the Securities Administrator so long as
the
Master Servicer and Securities Administrator are the same Person). When the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, in its capacity as Custodian, and the Securities
Administrator (or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by them) submit
their assessments to the Securities Administrator, such parties will also at
such time include the assessment (and attestation pursuant to subsection (b)
of
this Section 3.16) of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by
it.
(iii) Promptly
after receipt of each such report on assessment of compliance, (i) the Depositor
shall review each such report and, if applicable, consult with the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, in its capacity as
Custodian, and any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such parties as
to
the nature of any material instance of noncompliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria by each such party, and (ii) the Securities Administrator shall confirm
that the assessments, taken as a whole, address all of the Servicing Criteria
and taken individually address the Relevant Servicing Criteria for each party
as
set forth on Exhibit R and on any similar exhibit set forth in each Servicing
Agreement in respect of each Servicer and notify the Depositor of any
exceptions.
(iv) The
Master Servicer shall include all annual reports on assessment of compliance
received by it from the Servicer (or the Subservicer on its behalf) with its
own
assessment of compliance to be submitted to the Securities Administrator
pursuant to this Section.
(v) In
the
event the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any Servicing
Function Participant engaged by the parties is terminated, assigns its rights
and obligations under or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or
any
other applicable agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a
report on assessment of compliance pursuant to this Section 3.16(a) or to such
other applicable agreement, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment
or
resignation.
(b) Attestation
Reports.
(i) By
March

Subservicer on its behalf, shall have received three Fair Value Prices by the
end of such 30-day period, then the majority holder of the most junior of the
Subordinate Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after the expiration of
such 30-day period, purchase such Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged
Property at an amount equal to the sum of (i) accrued and unpaid interest on
such Mortgage Loan as of such purchase date (“Accrued Interest”) and (ii) the
highest of such three Fair Value Prices respectively determined by such
appraisal firms, and shall promptly deliver such amount to the Master Servicer
for deposit into the Certificate Account. All costs relating to the computation
of the related Fair Value Prices shall be for the account of the majority holder
of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates and shall be paid by the
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates at the time
such Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property are purchased by the
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates.
89
(d) If
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall not have received three
Fair
Value Prices at the end of the 30-day period set forth in (c) above,
then:
(i)
|
MortgageIT
(or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall obtain such three Fair Value
Prices no later than 15 days after the end of such 30-day
period.
|
(ii)
|
If
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall have only received
two
Fair Value Prices at the end of such 15-day extension period, then
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) will determine, in
its sole
and absolute discretion, the fair value of the Mortgaged Property
relating
to such Mortgage Loan, related Insurance Proceeds and the current
delinquency status of such Mortgage Loan (such fair value, the “Master
Servicer Fair Value Price”), and the majority holder of the most junior of
the Subordinate Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after the
expiration of such 15-day extension period, purchase (and deliver
to
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) the purchase price
for) such
Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property at an amount equal
to the
sum of (A) Accrued Interest thereon and (B) the higher of (1) the
highest
of such two Fair Value Prices determined by such appraisal firms
and (2)
the Servicer Fair Value Price.
|
(iii)
|
If
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall have received
only one
Fair Value Price at the end of such 15-day extension period, then
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) will determine, in
its sole
and absolute discretion, the Servicer Fair Value Price of the Mortgaged
Property related to such Mortgage Loan,
and:
|
(A)
|
if
such Servicer Fair Value Price is equal to or greater than the unpaid
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan as of such date (the
“Unpaid Principal Balance”), then the majority holder of the most junior
of the Subordinate Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after
the
expiration of such 15-day extension period, purchase (and deliver
to the
Master Servicer the purchase price for) such Mortgage Loan and the
related
Mortgaged Property at an amount equal to the sum of (1) Accrued Interest
thereon and (2) such Servicer Fair Value Price;
and
|
(B)
|
if
such Servicer Fair Value Price is less than the related Unpaid Principal
Balance, then the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after the expiration of
such
15-day extension period, purchase (and deliver to MortgageIT (or
the
Subservicer on its behalf) the purchase price for) such Mortgage
Loan and
the related Mortgaged Property at an amount equal to the sum of (1)
Accrued Interest thereon and (2) the related Unpaid Principal Balance
(such sum, the “Preliminary Purchase Price”); provided, that the
provisions of clause (d)(iv) shall thereafter apply.
|
90
(iv)
|
Following
the payment by the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates of the Preliminary Purchase Price, MortgageIT (or the
Subservicer on its behalf) shall continue to hire appraisal firms
at the
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates’ sole
cost and expense to compute the Fair Value Price of the Mortgaged
Property
related to such Mortgage Loan, and at such time as two such Fair
Value
Prices shall have been obtained:
|
(A)
|
if
such Servicer Fair Value Price is equal to or greater than the unpaid
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan as of such date (the
“Unpaid Principal Balance”), then the majority holder of the most junior
of the Subordinate Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after
the
expiration of such 15-day extension period, purchase (and deliver
to
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) the purchase price
for) such
Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property at an amount equal
to the
sum of (1) Accrued Interest thereon and (2) such Servicer Fair Value
Price; and
|
(B)
|
if
the sum of (1) Accrued Interest on the related Mortgage Loan and
(2) the
higher of (x) the highest of such two Fair Value Prices determined
by such
appraisal firms and (y) the Servicer’s Fair Value Price of the Mortgaged
Property related to such Mortgage Loan (such sum, the “Revised Fair Value
Price”) is greater than such Preliminary Purchase Price, then MortgageIT
(or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall promptly notify the majority
holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates of such
calculation, and the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates shall, no later than 5 days after such notice, remit
to
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) for deposit into the
Certificate Account, the difference between such Revised Fair Value
Price
and such Preliminary Purchase Price;
and
|
(C)
|
if
such Preliminary Purchase Price is greater than such Revised Fair
Value
Price, then MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) shall promptly
notify the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates of such calculation, and MortgageIT (or the Subservicer
on
its behalf) shall, no later than 5 days after such notice, remit
to the
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates,
from
funds then on deposit in the Certificate Account, the difference
between
such Preliminary Purchase Price and such Revised Fair Value
Price.
|
(e) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the majority holder of the most junior of
the
Subordinate Certificates shall not be entitled to any of its rights set forth
herein with respect to a Mortgage Loan following its failure to purchase such
Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property, at the related purchase price
set forth in this Section 3.24 within the timeframe set forth in this Section
3.24 following the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates’ objection to an action of MortgageIT or the Subservicer, as
applicable. Moreover, the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates shall not be entitled to the foregoing rights if any of the
Subordinate Certificates are held by entities that are unaffiliated with such
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates.
91
(f) Any
notice, confirmation, instruction or objection pursuant to paragraphs (a),
(b),
(c) and (d) above may be delivered via facsimile or other written or electronic
communication as the parties hereto and the majority holder of the most junior
of the Subordinate Certificates may agree to from time to time.
(g) For
the
avoidance of doubt, the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates’ rights set forth in this Section 3.24 are intended to provide the
majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate Certificates, for so
long
as it has not forfeited its right under this Section 3.24 as set forth in clause
(e) above, with the unilateral right to control foreclosure decisions in respect
of delinquent and defaulted Mortgage Loans, and certain exclusive purchase
rights so as to maximize the recovery value on delinquent and defaulted Mortgage
Loans.
(h) To
the
extent that the majority holder of the most junior of the Subordinate
Certificates purchases any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.24,
MortgageIT (or the Subservicer on its behalf) will continue to service such
Mortgage Loan in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement.
SECTION
3.25. Optional Purchases of Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
MortgageIT
will have the option at any time to purchase any of the Mortgage Loans from
the
Trustee at the Purchase Price, up to a maximum of five Mortgage Loans. In the
event that this option is exercised
as to
any five Mortgage Loans, this option will thereupon terminate. This option
is
not revocable by MortgageIT. If at any time MortgageIT makes a payment to the
Distribution Account covering the Purchase Price for such Mortgage Loan pursuant
to this Section, then the Trustee shall execute the assignment of such Mortgage
Loan at the request of MortgageIT without recourse to MortgageIT which shall
succeed to all the Trustee’s right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage
Loan, and shall transfer the Mortgage File relating thereto.
SECTION
3.26. Realization upon Troubled Mortgage Loans.
The
Master Servicer shall have the right to cause a Servicer to sell or work out
any
Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer reasonably believes that default
in payment is likely, provided,
however,
that,
with respect to any such sale of a Mortgage Loan by a Servicer, the related
sale
price shall be no less than the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan
as of the last day of the Due Period immediately preceding the date of such
sale
plus accrued interest thereon through such sale date. Any and all proceeds
from
such a sale shall be deemed to be Liquidation Proceeds hereunder and any such
Mortgage Loan which has been sold shall be deemed a Liquidated Mortgage Loan
hereunder.
92
SECTION
3.27. Closing Certificate and Opinion.
On
or
before the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall cause to be delivered to
the
Depositor, the Seller, the Trustee, and Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. an
Opinion of Counsel, dated the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor, Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., and the Seller
as to the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Master Servicer and the enforceability thereof.
SECTION
3.28. Liabilities of the Master Servicer.
The
Master Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of
the
obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by it herein.
SECTION
3.29. Merger or Consolidation of the Master Servicer.
(a) The
Master Servicer will keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a corporation under the laws of the state of its incorporation,
and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign
corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be
necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the
Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this
Agreement.
(b) Any
Person into which the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Master
Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the
Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the Master Servicer hereunder,
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.
SECTION
3.30. Indemnification of the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities
Administrator.
(a) In
addition to any indemnity required pursuant to Section 3.22 hereof, the Master
Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Persons for, and to hold them
harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (except as otherwise provided
herein with respect to expenses) (including reasonable legal fees and
disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained in
connection with, arising out of, or relating to this Agreement or the
Certificates (i) related to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its duties
in compliance with this Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or (ii) incurred
by
reason of the Master Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, provided, in each case, that
with
respect to any such claim or legal action (or pending or threatened claim or
legal action), an Indemnified Person shall have given the Master Servicer and
the Depositor written notice thereof promptly after such Indemnified Person
shall have with respect to such claim or legal action knowledge thereof. The
Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the
Indemnified Person’s right to indemnification hereunder. This indemnity shall
survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the
Securities Administrator and the termination of this Agreement.
93
(b) The
Trust
Fund will indemnify any Indemnified Person for any loss, liability or expense
of
any Indemnified Person not otherwise indemnified by the Master Servicer as
referred to in Subsection (a) above.
(c) In
addition to any indemnity required pursuant to Section 3.22 hereof, the
Securities Administrator agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Persons (other
than
the Securities Administrator) for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense (except as otherwise provided herein with respect to
expenses) (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel)
incurred on their part (i) in connection with, arising out of, or relating
to
the Securities Administrator’s failure to file any Exchange Act report which the
Securities Administrator is responsible for filing in accordance with Section
3.19, (ii) by reason of the Securities Administrator’s negligence or willful
misconduct in the performance of such obligations pursuant to Section 3.19
or
(iii) by reason of the Securities Administrator’s reckless disregard of such
obligations pursuant to Section 3.19, provided, in each case, that with respect
to any such claim or legal action (or pending or threatened claim or legal
action), an Indemnified Person shall have given the Securities Administrator
written notice thereof promptly after such Indemnified Person shall have with
respect to such claim or legal action knowledge thereof. The Indemnified
Person’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnified Person’s
right to indemnification hereunder. This indemnity shall survive the resignation
or removal of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator
and the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION
3.31. Limitations on Liability of the Master Servicer and Others;
Indemnification of Trustee and Others.
Subject
to the obligation of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Indemnified Persons
pursuant to Section 3.30:
(a) Neither
the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents
of
the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Indemnified Persons,
the
Depositor, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for taking any action or
for
refraining from taking any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement,
or
for errors in judgment; provided,
however,
that
this provision shall not protect the Master Servicer or any such Person against
any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any liability which
would otherwise be imposed by reason of such Person’s willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.
(b) The
Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master
Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly
executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder.
(c) The
Master Servicer, the Trustee (in its individual corporate capacity and as
Trustee), the Custodian (including for such purpose, the Trustee acting in
its
capacity as Custodian) and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian shall be indemnified by the Trust
Fund and held harmless thereby against any loss, liability or expense (except
as
otherwise provided herein with respect to expenses) (including reasonable legal
fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained
in connection with, arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement, the
Certificates or any Servicing Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby (except, with respect to the Master Servicer, to the extent that
the
Master Servicer is indemnified by the Servicer thereunder), other than (i)
with
respect to the Master Servicer only, any such loss, liability or expense related
to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its duties in compliance with this
Agreement or (ii) with respect to the Master Servicer or Custodian only, any
such loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the Master Servicer’s or
the Custodian’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of its own duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard
of
its own obligations and duties hereunder or under a custodial
agreement.
94
(d) The
Master Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or
defend any legal action that is not incidental to its duties under this
Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability;
provided,
however,
the
Master Servicer may in its discretion, undertake any such action which it may
deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and
duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Trust Fund and the
Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs
and
liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to
be
reimbursed therefor out of the Distribution Account as provided by Section
4.03.
Nothing in this Subsection 3.31(d) shall affect the Master Servicer’s obligation
to supervise, or to take such actions as are necessary to ensure, the servicing
and administration of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Subsection
3.01(a).
(e) In
taking
or recommending any course of action pursuant to this Agreement, unless
specifically required to do so pursuant to this Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall not be required to investigate or make recommendations concerning
potential liabilities which the Trust Fund might incur as a result of such
course of action by reason of the condition of the Mortgaged Properties but
shall give notice to the Trustee if it has notice of such potential
liabilities.
(f) The
Master Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any Servicer,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
SECTION
3.32. Master Servicer Not to Resign.
Except
as
provided in Section 3.34, the Master Servicer shall not resign from the
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon a determination that
any
such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such
impermissibility cannot be cured. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Independent Opinion
of Counsel (delivered at the expense of the Master Servicer) to such effect
delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation by the Master Servicer shall
become effective until the Trustee or a successor to the Master Servicer
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee shall have assumed the responsibilities
and obligations of the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof.
The Trustee shall notify each Rating Agency of the resignation of the Master
Servicer.
95
SECTION
3.33. Successor Master Servicer.
In
connection with the appointment of any successor master servicer or the
assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor master servicer out of
payments on the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee and such successor master servicer
shall agree which in no case shall exceed the Master Servicing Fee. If the
successor master servicer does not agree that the proposed compensation is
fair,
such successor master servicer shall obtain two quotations of market
compensation from third parties actively engaged in the servicing of
single-family mortgage loans;
provided,
however,
that
MortgageIT, as a Servicer of the Mortgage Loans, shall have the right, but
not
the obligation, to be appointed successor master servicer in the event that
the
Trustee, in its sole discretion, decides not to assume the duties of the Master
Servicer itself; and provided,
further,
that
each Rating Agency shall confirm in writing that any appointment of a successor
Master Servicer (other than the Trustee) will not result in a downgrade in
the
then current rating of any Class of Certificates.
SECTION
3.34. Sale and Assignment of Master Servicing.
The
Master Servicer may sell and assign its rights and delegate its duties and
obligations in their entirety as Master Servicer under this Agreement, with
the
written consent of the Depositor, to be given in its sole discretion, and
provided further that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment
and delegation (a) shall be a Person which shall be qualified to service
mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac; (b) shall have a net worth of
not
less than $10,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant
to clause (ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor
(as
evidenced in writing signed by the Depositor); and (d) shall execute and deliver
to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to
the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual
performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or
observed by it as master servicer under this Agreement, any custodial agreement
from and after the effective date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency
shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor
to
the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency’s ratings of the Certificates in
effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be
downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and
delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the Master
Servicer and the Trustee; and (iii) the Master Servicer assigning and selling
the master servicing shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and
an Independent Opinion of Counsel, (delivered at the Master Servicer’s expense)
each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement
have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms
of this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability
of the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.
SECTION
3.35. Reporting Requirements of the Commission.
To
the
extent that, following the Closing Date, the content of Forms 8-K, 10-D, 10-K,
15 or other Forms required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations
of
the Commission and the time by which such Forms are required to be filed,
differs from the provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the
Securities Administrator hereby agree that each shall reasonably cooperate
to
amend the provisions of this Agreement (in accordance with Section 12.01) in
order to comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment
of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer
nor
the Securities Administrator shall be obligated to enter into any amendment
pursuant to this Section that adversely affects its obligations or immunities
under this Agreement.

Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to establish
and
maintain one or more custodial accounts (the “Servicing

in
accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept

with the provisions of Section 12.01 hereof.
(b) [Reserved];

the
extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement and subject to this Article

Distribution Account as a segregated account or accounts, each of which shall
be
an Eligible Account. The Distribution Account shall constitute a trust account
of the Trust Fund segregated on the books of the Securities Administrator and
held by the Securities Administrator in trust in its Corporate Trust Office,
and
the Distribution Account and the funds deposited therein shall not be subject
to, and shall be protected from, all claims, liens, and encumbrances of any
creditors or depositors of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the

The amount at any time credited to the Distribution Account shall be (i) fully
insured by the FDIC to the maximum coverage provided thereby or (ii) invested
by
the Securities Administrator, in Permitted Investments, in accordance with
Section 4.02(c). All Permitted Investments shall mature or be subject to
redemption or withdrawal on or before, and shall be held until, the immediately
succeeding Distribution Date. With respect to the Distribution Account and
the
funds deposited therein, the Securities Administrator shall take such action
as
may be necessary to ensure that the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders shall
be entitled to the priorities afforded to such a trust account (in addition
to a
claim against the estate of the Securities Administrator or the Trustee) as
provided by 12 U.S.C. § 92a(e), and applicable regulations pursuant thereto, if
applicable, or any applicable comparable state statute applicable to state
chartered banking corporations, if applicable. The Securities Administrator,

(iv) the
Purchase Price with respect to any Mortgage Loans purchased by the Seller under
this Agreement, any Substitution Adjustments pursuant to Section 2.03 of this

the Seller pursuant to Section 3.25, and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loans
or
property acquired with respect thereto repurchased by the Seller pursuant to
Section 10.01;
(v) any
amounts required to be deposited with respect to losses on investments of
deposits in the Distribution Account; and
(vi) any
other
amounts received by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or the Securities
Administrator and required to be deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant
to this Agreement, including the applicable Class P Contribution.
(b) All
amounts deposited to the Distribution Account shall be held by the Securities
Administrator in the name of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Trust
Fund and Certificateholders in accordance with the terms and provisions of
this
Agreement. The requirements for crediting the Distribution Account shall be
exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, payments in the nature of (i) late payment charges or
assumption, tax service, statement account or payoff, substitution,
satisfaction, release and other like fees and charges (including all Prepayment
Penalty Amounts) and (ii) the items enumerated in Subsections 4.03(a)(i), (ii),
(iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (ix) and (x) with respect to the Securities
Administrator, need not be credited by the Master Servicer or the related
Servicer to the Distribution Account. In the event that the Master Servicer
shall deposit or cause to be deposited to the Distribution Account any amount
not required to be credited thereto, the Securities Administrator, upon receipt
of a written request therefor signed by a Servicing Officer of the Master
Servicer, shall promptly transfer such amount to the Master Servicer, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
(c) The
amount
at
any time credited to the Distribution Account shall be invested, in the name
of
the Trustee, or its nominee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, in
Permitted Investments as follows. All Permitted Investments and investment

by it from the Seller or its affiliate with respect to the preceding sentence
is

To
the
extent that it constitutes a “reserve fund” for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions, the Yield Maintenance Account established hereunder shall be an
“outside reserve fund” as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h), and in
that regard (i) such fund shall be an outside reserve fund and not an asset
of
any REMIC, (ii) such fund shall be owned for federal tax purposes by the Holders
of the Class 1-X (the portion attributable to amounts received under Yield
Maintenance Agreements related to Group 1 Certificates) and Class 2-X
Certificates (the portion attributable to amounts received under Yield

Securities Administrator shall terminate the Yield Maintenance Agreements upon
the occurrence of an event of default or termination event under the related
Yield Maintenance Agreements of which a Responsible Officer of the Securities
Administrator has actual knowledge. In the event that a Yield Maintenance
Agreement is canceled or otherwise terminated for any reason (other than the
exhaustion of the interest rate protection provided thereby), the Securities
Administrator shall, at the direction of Certificateholders evidencing Voting
Rights not less than 50% of the Certificates related to such Yield Maintenance
Agreement, and to the extent a replacement contract is available (from a
counterparty designated by the Depositor and acceptable to Certificateholders
evidencing Voting Rights not less than 50% of the related Certificates), execute
a replacement contract comparable to such Yield Maintenance Agreement providing
interest rate protection which is equal to the then-existing protection provided
by such Yield Maintenance Agreement as certified to the Securities Administrator
by the Depositor; provided,
however,
that
the cost of any such replacement contract providing the same interest rate
protection may be reduced to a level such that the cost of such replacement
contract shall not exceed the amount of any early termination payment received
from the Yield Maintenance Provider.

is reduced to zero), all amounts received by the Securities Administrator with
respect to the related Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be distributed directly

allocated among the other Loan Subgroup, pro
rata
based on
aggregate Class Principal Balance of the related Senior Certificates, and paid
to the Senior Certificates in such Loan Subgroup in the same priority as such
Certificates would receive other distributions of principal pursuant to Section
5.01(a)(i).
(ii) On
any
Distribution Date on which the Group 1 Senior Certificates related to a Loan
Subgroup constitute an Undercollateralized Subgroup, all amounts otherwise
distributable as Available Funds on the Group 1 Subordinate Certificates, in
reverse order of priority (or, following the Senior Credit Support Depletion
Date for Loan Group 1, such other amounts described in the immediately following
sentence), will be distributed as principal to the Senior Certificates of such
Undercollateralized Subgroup pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(i), first,
up to
the sum of the Accrued Interest Amount and the Principal Deficiency Amount
for
the related Undercollateralized Subgroup (such distribution, an “Undercollateralization
Distribution”)
and
second,
to pay
to the Group 1 Subordinate Certificates and the Class A-R Certificate in the
same order and priority as provided in Section 5.01(a)(i)(C). In the event
that
the Group 1 Senior Certificates related to a Loan Subgroup constitute an
Undercollateralized Subgroup on any Distribution Date following the Senior
Credit Support Depletion Date for Loan Group 1, Undercollateralization
Distributions will be made from any Available Funds for a Loan Subgroup not
related to an Undercollateralized Subgroup remaining after all required amounts
have been distributed to the related Class of Senior Certificates.
Undercollateralization Distributions will be applied first
to pay
accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and second
to pay
principal in the same priority and allocation provided in Section
5.01(a)(i).

Certificateholders of the Physical Certificates, by check or money order mailed
to such Certificateholder at the address appearing in the Certificate Register,
or by wire transfer. Distributions among Certificateholders of a Class shall
be
made in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates
of
that Class held by such Certificateholders.
(h) Distributions
on Book-Entry Certificates.
Each
distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the
Depository, which shall credit the amount of such distribution to the accounts
of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution
to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. All such credits and disbursements

added to the Principal Balances of the related Group 2 Mortgage Loans that
is

however,
the

allocable to the Class 2-A1A and Class 2-A1B Certificates for so long as the
Class 2-A1A and Class 2-A1B Certificates are outstanding; provided,

Group
then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall be reduced
on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of
the
Class Principal Balances of all outstanding Classes of Certificates for such
Loan Group (after giving effect to the distribution of principal and the
allocation of Realized Losses for such Loan Group on such Distribution Date)
exceeds the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balances of all the Mortgage
Loans
for such Loan Group for the following Distribution Date.
(d) Any
Realized Loss allocated to a Class of Certificates or any reduction in the
Class
Principal Balance of a Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(b) or

accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or
brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each Depository Participant
shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners that it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with
the Depository’s normal procedures. The parties hereto are hereby authorized to
execute one or more Letter of Representations with the Depository or take such
other action as may be necessary or desirable to register a Book-Entry
Certificate to the Depository. In the event of any conflict between the terms
of
any such Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall control.

the Trust and authenticate definitive, fully registered certificates (the
“Definitive
Certificates”).

delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall
be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and
the
Depositor shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders hereunder.
(d) No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Private Certificate, other

Definitive Certificates and the records of the Certificate Registrar and DTC
or
its nominee shall be adjusted to reflect the transfer of such Definitive
Certificates. In the event of any transfer of any Private Certificate in the
form of a Definitive Certificate, (i) the transferee shall certify (A) such
transfer is made to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in reliance upon Rule 144A
(as evidenced by an investment letter delivered to the Certificate Registrar,
in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2) under the 1933 Act,
or
(B) such transfer is made to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(c)(1), (2),
(3) or (7) under the 1933 Act (as evidenced by an investment letter delivered

written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and
in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and
the
Depositor, delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor stating
that
such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, including a description
of
the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being
made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer,
the
Securities Administrator or the Depositor) or (ii) the Certificate Registrar
shall require the transferor to execute a transferor certificate and the
transferee to execute an investment letter acceptable to and in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar
certifying to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding
such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trust,
the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or the Depositor. Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring
to
effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee,
the
Certificate Registrar, the Securities Administrator, the Seller and the
Depositor 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.
124
In
the
case of a Private Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, for purposes
of
the preceding paragraph, the representations set forth in the investment letter
in clause (i) shall be deemed to have been made to the Certificate Registrar
by
the transferee’s acceptance of such Private Certificate that is also a
Book-Entry Certificate (or the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the
beneficial interest in such Certificate).
If
any
Certificate Owner that is required under this Section 6.02(d) to transfer its
Class 1-B4, Class 1-B5, Class 1-B6, Class 2-B4, Class 2-B5 or Class 2-B6
Certificates that are Book-Entry Certificates in the form of Definitive
Certificates, (i) notifies the Certificate Registrar of such transfer or
exchange and (ii) transfers such Book-Entry Certificates to the Certificate
Registrar, in its capacity as such, through the book-entry facilities of the
Depository, then the Certificate Registrar shall decrease the balance of such
Book-Entry Certificates, or the Certificate Registrar shall use reasonable
efforts to cause the surrender to the Certificate Registrar of such Book-Entry
Certificates by the Depository, and thereupon, the Trustee, on behalf of the
Trust, shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver to such Certificate Owner or its designee one or more Definitive
Certificates in authorized denominations and with a like aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance.
Subject
to the provisions of this Section 6.02(d) governing registration of transfer
and
exchange Class 1-B4, Class 1-B5, Class 1-B6, Class 2-B4, Class 2-B5 or Class
2-B6 Certificates (i) held as Definitive Certificates may be transferred in
the form of Book-Entry Certificates in reliance on Rule 144A (to one or more
Qualified Institutional Buyers) or Regulation S under the 1933 Act that are
acquiring such Definitive Certificates, their own accounts for or for the
accounts of other Qualified Institutional Buyers and (ii) held as
Definitive Certificates by a Qualified Institutional Buyer or an investor under
Regulation S for its own account or for the account of another Qualified
Institutional Buyer or Regulation S investor may be exchanged for Book-Entry
Certificates, in each case upon surrender of such Certificates for registration
of transfer or exchange at the offices of the Certificate Registrar maintained
for such purpose. Whenever any such Certificates are so surrendered for transfer
or exchange, either the Certificate Registrar shall increase the balance of
the
related Book-Entry Certificates ,or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall
execute, and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, the
Book-Entry Certificates for which such Certificates were transferred or
exchanged, as necessary and appropriate. No Holder of any such Definitive
Certificates other than a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a Regulation S
investor holding such Certificates for its own account or for the account of
another Qualified Institutional Buyer or Regulation S investor may exchange
such
Certificates for Book-Entry Certificates. Further, any Certificate Owner of
such
Book-Entry Certificates other than any such Qualified Institutional Buyers
or
Regulation S investors shall notify the Certificate Registrar of its status
as
such and shall transfer such Book-Entry Certificate to the Certificate
Registrar, through the book-entry facilities of the Depository, whereupon,
and
also upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of such Book-Entry Certificates
by the Depository, (which surrender the Certificate Registrar shall use
reasonable efforts to cause to occur), the Securities Administrator on behalf
of
the Trust shall execute, and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, to such Certificate Owner or such Certificate Owner’s nominee one or
more Definitive Certificates in authorized denominations and with a like
aggregate Certificate Principal Balance.
125
None
of
the Depositor, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Certificate
Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Private
Certificates under the 1933 Act or any other securities laws or to take any
action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of
such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder
desiring to effect the transfer of a Private Certificate shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Seller, the Securities Administrator,
the
Depositor and the Certificate Registrar 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 in the form of a Definitive
Certificate shall be made unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received
either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Certificate, acceptable
to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and
the
Depositor (such requirement is satisfied only by the Certificate Registrar’s
receipt of a representation letter from the transferee substantially in the
form
of Exhibit I-1 or I-2, as applicable, hereto), to the effect that such
transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA
or a
plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor a person acting
on
behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using the assets of any such plan
or
arrangement to effect such transfer or (ii) if such Certificate has been the
subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, and the purchaser is an insurance
company, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance company which
is
purchasing such Certificates with funds contained in an “insurance company
general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE
95-60”)
and
that the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered under Sections
I
and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of
the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Depositor or the Trust, addressed to the Certificate
Registrar, to the effect that the purchase and holding of such ERISA-Restricted
Certificate in the form of a Definitive 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, the Certificate Registrar, the Master
Servicer, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor to any
obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to
any
liability. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive
Certificate to an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of
the
Code without the delivery to the Certificate Registrar of an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar as described above shall be void
and
of no effect.
126
In
the
case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, for
purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) of the first sentence of the preceding
paragraph, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the
Certificate Registrar by the transferee’s acceptance of such ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that is also a Book-Entry Certificate (or the acceptance by a
Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in such Certificate).
To
the
extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA),
none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall have
any
liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 6.02(d) or for the
Paying Agent 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 Certificate
Registrar in accordance with the foregoing requirements. In addition, none
of
the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall be required to
monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions
with respect to any ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Book-Entry
Certificate, and none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor
shall have any liability for transfers of Book-Entry Certificates or any
interests therein made in violation of the restrictions on transfer described
in
the Prospectus Supplement and this Agreement.
(e) Each
Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest
to
have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably
appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact to negotiate
the
terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to execute all
instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection
with
any such sale, 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 who acquires such Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate for its own account and not in the capacity as trustee,
nominee or agent for another Person and shall promptly notify the Certificate
Registrar and the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as
such a Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be registered on the Closing
Date and no Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may thereafter be
transferred, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register the Transfer
of a
Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the certificates required to be
delivered under subsection (d) above, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
shall have been furnished with an affidavit (“Transfer
Affidavit”)
of the
initial owner of such Residual Certificate or proposed transferee of a Residual
Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L.
(iii) In
connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall as a condition
to
registration of the transfer, require delivery to them of a Transferor
Certificate in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the proposed transferor to
the
effect that the transferor (a) has no knowledge the proposed Transferee is
not a
Permitted Transferee acquiring an Ownership Interest in such Residual
Certificate for its own account and not in a capacity as trustee, nominee,
or
agent for another Person, and (b) has not undertaken the proposed transfer
in
whole or in part to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
127
(iv) Any
attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section shall be absolutely
null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. If any
purported transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section,
become a Holder of such Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that
the registration of Transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact
permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor
shall have any liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of
a
Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section or for the
Paying Agent making any distributions due on a Residual Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder win the
provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar received the documents specified in clause (iii). The Certificate
Registrar shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of such Residual
Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time such
distributions were made all distributions made on such Residual Certificate.
Any
such distributions so recovered by the Certificate Registrar shall be
distributed and delivered by the Certificate Registrar to the last Holder of
such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.
(v) If
any
Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in
a
Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then
the
Certificate Registrar shall have the right but not the obligation, without
notice to the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any other Person having
an
Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale
of
such Residual Certificate. The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions (which
may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates in connection
with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the
Certificate Registrar to the previous Holder of such Residual Certificate that
is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the event that the Certificate
Registrar determines that the Holder of such Residual Certificate may be liable
for any amount due under this Section or any other provisions of this Agreement,
the Certificate Registrar may withhold a corresponding amount from such
remittance as security for such claim. The terms and conditions of any sale
under this clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee
and the Certificate Registrar and they shall not be liable to any Person having
an Ownership Interest in such Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise
of such discretion.
(vi) If
any
Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in
a
Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then
the
Securities Administrator upon receipt of reasonable compensation will provide
to
the Internal Revenue Service, and to the persons specified in Sections
860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed
under Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code on transfers of residual interests to
disqualified organizations.
128
The
foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers occurring
on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the Certificate
Registrar and the Servicer, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that
the
removal of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not
cause
such Rating Agency to downgrade its ratings of the Certificates and (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause the REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.
(f) Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Restricted Global Security
or
Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, representing the Certificates
remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers
of
a Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable,
representing the Certificates, in whole or in part, shall only be made in
accordance with Section 6.01 and this Section 6.02(f).
(i) Subject
to clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 6.02(f), transfers of a Restricted
Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, representing
the
Certificates shall be limited to transfers of such a Restricted Global Security
or Regulation S Global Security, as applicable, in whole, but not in part,
to
nominees of the Depository or to a successor of the Depository or such
successor’s nominee.
(ii) Restricted
Global Security to Regulation S Global Security.
If a
holder of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security deposited with
or on behalf of the Depository wishes at any time to exchange its interest
in
such Restricted Global Security for an interest in a Regulation S Global
Security, or to transfer its interest in such Restricted Global Security to
a
Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a
Regulation S Global Security, such holder, provided such holder is not a U.S.
Person, may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository, exchange
or
cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in
the
Regulation S Global Security. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar of
(A)
instructions from the Depository directing the Certificate Registrar to cause
to
be credited a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security in an amount
equal to the beneficial interest in such Restricted Global Security to be
exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such
Certificateholders’ held through a Regulation S Global Security, (B) a written
order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing
information regarding the participant account of the Depository and, in the
case
of a transfer pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the Euroclear
or
Clearstream account to be credited with such increase and (C) a certificate
in
the form of Exhibit N-1 hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest
stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest has been made in
compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global Securities,
including that the holder is not a U.S. Person and pursuant to and in accordance
with Regulation S, the Certificate Registrar shall reduce the principal amount
of the Restricted Global Security and increase the principal amount of the
Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial
interest in the Restricted Global Security to be exchanged, and shall instruct
Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, concurrently with such reduction,
to
credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such
instructions a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security equal
to
the reduction in the principal amount of the Restricted Global
Security.

(iii) Regulation
S Global Security to Restricted Global Security.
If a
holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security deposited
with
or on behalf of the Depository wishes at any time to transfer its interest
in
such Regulation S Global Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery
thereof in the form of an interest in a Restricted Global Security, such holder
may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository, exchange or cause
the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a
Restricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar of (A)
instructions from the Depository directing the Certificate Registrar to cause
to
be credited a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security in an amount
equal to the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Security to be
exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such
Certificateholder’s Certificates held through a Restricted Global Security, to
be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant
account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, and (B) a
certificate in the form of Exhibit N-2 hereto given by the holder of such
beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that the Person
transferring such interest in such Regulation S Global Security reasonably
believes that the Person acquiring such interest in a Restricted Global Security
is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A, is obtaining
such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule
144A
and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United
States or any other jurisdiction, then the Certificate Registrar will reduce
the
principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security and increase the principal
amount of the Restricted Global Security by the aggregate principal amount
of
the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security to be transferred
and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with
such reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global
Security equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S
Global Security.
(iv) Other
Exchanges.
In the
event that a Restricted Global Security or Regulation S Global Security, as
applicable, is exchanged for Certificates in definitive registered form without
interest coupons, such Certificates may be exchanged for one another only in
accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the
provisions above (including certification requirements intended to insure that
such transfers comply with Rule 144A or are to non-U.S. Persons, or otherwise
comply with Regulation S under the Securities Act, as the case may be, and
as
may be from time to time adopted by the Depositor and the Certificate
Registrar.
(v) Restrictions
on U.S. Transfers.
Transfers of interests in the Regulation S Global Security to U.S. persons
(as
defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the
provisions of Section 6.02(f)(iii).
(g) No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Certificates of any Class, but the Certificate Registrar may require 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.
All
Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
cancelled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant to its standard
procedures.
130
SECTION
6.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If
(i)
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar or the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to
its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii)
there
is delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor 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, the Depositor or the Certificate
Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
the
Securities Administrator shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the
Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate
of like tenor and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate
under this Section, the Depositor or the Certificate Registrar 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 Depositor and the Certificate Registrar) in connection
therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section, shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund,
as
if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate
shall be found at any time.
SECTION
6.04. Persons Deemed Owners.
The
Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and any
agent of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying
Agent may treat the Person, including a Depository, in whose name any
Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose
of
receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trust, the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.
SECTION
6.05. Appointment of Paying Agent.
(a) The
Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) for the purpose
of
making distributions to Certificateholders hereunder. The Trustee hereby
appoints the Securities Administrator as the initial Paying Agent. The duties
of
the Paying Agent may include the obligation (i) to withdraw funds from the
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof and (ii) to distribute
statements and provide information to Certificateholders as required hereunder.
The Paying Agent hereunder shall at all times be an entity duly incorporated
and
validly existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state
thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities.
(b) The
Securities Administrator, as Paying Agent, shall hold all sums, if any, held
by
it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such
Certificateholders and shall comply with all requirements of the Code regarding
the withholding of payments in respect of federal income taxes due from
Certificate Owners and otherwise comply with the provisions of this Agreement
applicable to it.

DEFAULT
SECTION
7.01. Event of Default.
(a) If
any
one of the following events (each, an “Event
of Default”)
shall
occur and be continuing:
(i) the
failure by the Master Servicer to (A) make any Advance on the Business Day
immediately preceding the related Distribution Date or (B) to deposit in the
Distribution Account any deposit required to be made under the terms of this
Agreement, and in either case such failure continues unremedied for a period
of
three Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure,
requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer
(or, if applicable, such shorter time period as is provided in the penultimate
sentence of Section 7.01(c)); or
(ii) the
failure by the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material
respect, any other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Master Servicer
as set forth in this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period
of 60 days, in each case after the date (A) on which written notice of such
failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master
Servicer by the Trustee or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by Holders
of
Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights or (B) on which a
Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer has actual knowledge of such failure
(or, in the case of a breach of its obligation beyond any applicable cure period
to provide an assessment of compliance, an attestation report or a
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification pursuant to Sections 3.16 and 3.18, respectively);
or
(iii) the
entry
against the Master Servicer of a decree or order by a court or agency or
supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment
of
a trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency,
conservatorship, receivership, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets
and
liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of
its
affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect
for a period of 60 days; or
(iv) the
Master Servicer shall voluntarily go into liquidation, consent to the
appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or similar person in
any
insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or
similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or of or relating
to
all or substantially all of its property; or a decree or order of a court or
agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the
appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or similar person 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, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 60
days; or 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 any
applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its
obligations;
132
(b) then,
and
in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have
been
remedied within the applicable grace period, the Trustee shall, at the written
direction of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Voting Rights aggregating
not less than 51%, or at its option may, by notice then given in writing to
the
Master Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master
Servicer as servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Master
Servicer shall also be given to each Rating Agency, the Depositor and the
Seller. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer (and by the Trustee
if
such notice is given by the Holders) of such written notice, all authority
and
power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to
the
Certificates or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested
in
the Trustee and 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 of each Mortgage
Loan and related documents or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate
with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights
of the Master Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the delivery
to
the Trustee of all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume
the Master Servicer's functions under this Agreement within ten Business Days
subsequent to such notice and the transfer within one Business Day subsequent
to
such notice to the Trustee for the administration by it of all cash amounts
that
shall at the time be held by the Master Servicer and to be deposited by it
in
the Distribution Account, any REO Account or any Servicing Account or that
have
been deposited by the Master Servicer in such accounts or thereafter received
by
the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property
received by the Master Servicer. All reasonable costs and expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Master Servicer's
duties and the Mortgage Files to the successor Master Servicer and amending
this
Agreement to reflect such succession as Master Servicer pursuant to this Section
shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer (or if the predecessor Master
Servicer is the Trustee, the initial Master Servicer) upon presentation of
reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses.
The
termination of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer shall not
affect any liability it may have incurred prior to such termination. To the
extent that such costs and expenses of the Trustee are not fully and timely
reimbursed by the predecessor Master Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled
to
reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Distribution
Account.
(c) The
Securities Administrator shall not later than the close of business on the
Business Day immediately preceding the related Distribution Date notify the
Trustee in writing of the Master Servicer’s failure to make any Advance required
to be made under this Agreement on such date and the amount of such Advance.
By
no later than 10:00 A.M. (Chicago time) on the relevant Distribution Date,
the
Securities Administrator shall notify the Trustee of the continuance of such
failure or that the Master Servicer has made the Advance, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding the terms of the Event of Default described in clause (i)(A)
of
Section 7.01(a), the Trustee, upon receipt of written notice on the Distribution
Date from the Securities Administrator of the continuance of the failure of
the
Master Servicer to make an Advance, shall, by notice in writing to the Master
Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately suspend all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer thereafter arising under this
Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have as a
Certificateholder or to reimbursement of outstanding Advances or other amounts
for which the Master Servicer was entitled to reimbursement as of the date
of
suspension, and the Trustee, subject to the cure provided for in this paragraph,
if available, shall act as provided in Section 7.02 to carry out the duties
of
the Master Servicer, including the obligation to make any Advance the nonpayment
of which is described in clause (i)(A) of Section 7.01(a). Any such action
taken
by the Trustee must be prior to the distribution on the relevant Distribution
Date, and shall have all of the rights incidental thereto. If the Master
Servicer shall within two Business Days following such suspension remit to
the
Trustee the amount of any Advance the nonpayment of which by the Master Servicer
is described in clause (i)(A) of Section 7.01(a), together with all other
amounts necessary to reimburse the Trustee for actual, necessary and reasonable
costs incurred by the Trustee because of action taken pursuant to this
subsection (including interest on any Advance or other amounts paid by the
Trustee (from and including the respective dates thereof) at a per annum rate
equal to the prime rate for U.S. money center commercial banks as published
in
the Wall Street Journal), then the Trustee, subject to the last two sentences
of
this paragraph, may at its sole discretion permit the Master Servicer to resume
its rights and obligations as Master Servicer hereunder. If
the
Master Servicer shall fail to remit such amounts to the Trustee within such
two
Business Days after the Distribution Date, then an Event of Default shall occur
and such notice of suspension shall be deemed to be a notice of termination
without any further action on the part of the Trustee. The Master Servicer
agrees that if it fails to make a required Advance by 10:00 A.M. (Chicago time)
on the related Distribution Date on more than two occasions in any 12 month
period, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to permit the Master Servicer
to resume its rights and obligations as Master Servicer hereunder, and
notwithstanding the cure period provided in Section 7.01(a)(i)(A), an Event
of
Default shall be deemed to have occurred on the relevant Distribution Date.
133
SECTION
7.02. Trustee to Act.
(a) From
and
after the date the Master Servicer (and the Trustee, if notice is sent by the
Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the Trustee
shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity
as
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 arising on and after its succession. As compensation therefor, the
Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation as the Master Servicer would
have
been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given.
Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Trustee is unwilling to act as successor
Master Servicer or (ii) if the Trustee is legally unable so to act, the Trustee
shall appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan
or
home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 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;
provided, that the appointment of any such successor Master Servicer shall
not
result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned
to
the Certificates by each Rating Agency as evidenced by a letter to such effect
from each Rating Agency. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting,
the
Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with
such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive
compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the
compensation which the Master Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant
to
Section 3.18. The appointment of a successor Master Servicer shall not affect
any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen under
this Agreement prior to its termination as Master Servicer to pay any deductible
under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.14 or to indemnify the Trustee
pursuant to Section 8.05), nor shall any successor Master Servicer be liable
for
any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer or for any breach
by
such Master Servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained
herein or in any related document or agreement. The Trustee and such successor
shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary
to
effectuate any such succession.
134
(b) Any
successor, including the Trustee, to the Master Servicer as Master Servicer
shall during the term of its service as Master Servicer continue to service
and
administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and
maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and
omissions in the performance of its obligations as Master Servicer hereunder
and
a Fidelity Bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same
extent as the Master Servicer is so required pursuant to Section
3.04.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee be liable
for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing
fee
paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Master Servicer
to act as successor Master Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions
set forth or provided for herein.
SECTION
7.03. Waiver of Event of Default.
The
Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, by notice
in writing to the Trustee, direct the Trustee to waive any events permitting
removal of any Master Servicer under this Agreement, provided,
however,
that
the Majority Certificateholders may not waive an event that results in a failure
to make any required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the
Holder of such Certificate. Upon any waiver of an Event of Default, such event
shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed
to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right consequent thereto
except to the extent expressly so waived. Notice of any such waiver shall be
given by the Trustee to each Rating Agency.
SECTION
7.04. Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon
any
termination or appointment of a successor to any Master Servicer pursuant to
this Article VII or Section 3.34, the Securities Administrator shall give prompt
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
135
(b) No
later
than 60 days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or which,
with
notice or a lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default of
which
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such
an
event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice
of
such occurrence unless such Event of Default shall have been waived or
cured.

THE
TRUSTEE
AND THE
SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR
SECTION
8.01. Duties of Trustee and Securities Administrator.
The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing
or
waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, and the Securities
Administrator each undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as
are
specifically set forth in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred
(which has not been cured or waived) of which a Responsible Officer has actual
knowledge, 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 man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of
his own affairs, unless the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer,
in
which case it shall use the same degree of care and skill as the Master Servicer
hereunder with respect to the exercise of the rights and powers of the Master
Servicer hereunder.
The
Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions,
certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other
instruments furnished to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, which
are
specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the
requirements of this Agreement; provided,
however,
that
neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator will be responsible for
the
accuracy or content of any such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
reports, documents or other instruments. If any such instrument is found not
to
conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner the Trustee
and the Securities Administrator shall take such action as it deems appropriate
to have the instrument corrected.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall make monthly distributions
to the Certificateholders from funds in the Distribution Account and the Basis
Risk Reserve Funds, as applicable, in each case as provided in Sections 5.01,
5.07 and 10.01 herein based on the report of the Securities
Administrator.
No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided,
however,
that:
(i) prior
to
the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Events
of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee
and the Securities Administrator shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Securities
Administrator shall be liable except for the performance of such of its 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
or the Securities Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part
of
the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator 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 or the Securities
Administrator, respectively, and conforming to the requirements of this
Agreement;
136
(ii) neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for an error of
judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or an
officer of the Securities Administrator, respectively, unless it shall be proved
that the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, was negligent
in
ascertaining or investigating the facts related thereto;
(iii) neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be personally liable with
respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith
in accordance with the consent or at the direction of Holders of Certificates
as
provided herein relating to the time, method and place of conducting any remedy
pursuant to this Agreement, or exercising or omitting to exercise any trust
or
power conferred upon the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively,
under this Agreement; and
(iv) the
Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default or a
Document Transfer Event or any other event or matter that may require it to
take
action or omit to take action hereunder unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office receives written notice of such Event
of
Default or Document Transfer Event.
Neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to expend or
risk
its own funds or otherwise incur financial or other liability in the performance
of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such
funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not
assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall
in
any event require the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform, or
be
responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the
Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers
and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.
SECTION
8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator.
Except

otherwise provided in Section 8.01 hereof:

order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably believed by it
to

the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee and the Securities Administrator may
prescribe;

to
the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have
offered to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, reasonable
security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; the right of the Trustee
to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than
its
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such
act;
(iv) neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be personally 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;
(v) prior
to
the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all
Events of Default which may have occurred, 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 documents, unless requested in writing
to do so by the Majority Certificateholder; provided,
however,
that if
the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses
or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation
is,
in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the
security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require
reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or liability as a condition
to
such proceeding. If the Master Servicer fails to reimburse the Trustee in
respect of the reasonable expense of every such examination relating to the
Master Servicer, the Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Trust Fund;
(vi) the
Trustee shall not be accountable, shall have no liability and makes no
representation as to any acts or omissions hereunder of the Securities
Administrator or the Master Servicer until such time as the Trustee may be
required to act as the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof and
thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as a successor Master
Servicer;
(vii) the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents, nominees, attorneys or a custodian, and shall not be responsible for
any
willful misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, nominee, attorney
or
custodian appointed by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator in good
faith;
138
(viii) the
right
of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform any discretionary
act
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and neither
the
Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be answerable for other than
its
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act;
and
(ix) to
help
fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Trustee
will
obtain, verify and record information that identifies individuals or entities
that establish a relationship or open an account with the Trustee. The Trustee
will ask for the name, address, tax identification number and other information
that will allow the Trustee to identify the individual or entity who is
establishing the relationship or opening the account. The Trustee may also
ask
for formation documents such as articles of incorporation, an offering
memorandum or other identifying documents to be provided.
SECTION
8.03. Trustee and the Securities Administrator Not Liable for Certificates
or
Mortgage Loans.
The
recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the authentication
of the Securities Administrator on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Depositor or the Seller, and the neither Trustee nor the
Securities Administrator assumes responsibility for the correctness of the
same.
Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator makes representations
or
warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
Certificates (other than with respect to the Securities Administrator the
signature and authentication of the Securities Administrator on the
Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the

System. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by
the
Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator, or for the use or application
of any funds paid to the Master Servicer in respect of related Mortgage Loans
or
deposited in or withdrawn from the Distribution Account by the Master Servicer
or the Securities Administrator. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities
Administrator shall at any time have any responsibility or liability for or
with
respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or any
Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance
of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency
of the Trust Fund or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed
to
Certificateholders under this Agreement, including, without limitation: the
existence, condition and ownership of any Mortgaged Property; the existence
and
enforceability of any hazard insurance thereon (other than if the Trustee shall
assume the duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof);
the
validity of the assignment of any Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any
intervening assignment; the completeness of any Mortgage Loan; the performance
or enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other than if the Trustee shall assume
the
duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof); the compliance
by the Depositor or the Seller with any warranty or representation made under
this Agreement or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty
or representation prior to the Trustee’s receipt of notice or other discovery of
any non-compliance therewith or any breach thereof; any investment of monies
by
or at the direction of the Master Servicer or any loss resulting therefrom,
it
being understood that the Trustee shall remain responsible for any Trust Fund
property that it may hold in its individual capacity and the Securities
Administrator shall remain responsible for any Trust Fund property that it

or
omissions of the Trustee as the successor Master Servicer), or any acts or
omissions of, any Servicer or any Mortgagor; any action of the Master Servicer

to
be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report
of
condition so published. The principal office of the Trustee (other than the
initial Trustee) shall be in a state with respect to which an Opinion of Counsel
has been delivered to such Trustee at the time such Trustee is appointed Trustee
to the effect that the Trust Fund will not be a taxable entity under the laws
of
such state. In case at any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section
8.06, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable shall resign

hereof.
SECTION

Securities Administrator that meets the requirements in Section 8.06, in each
case, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall
be
delivered to each of the resigning Trustee or Securities Administrator, as
applicable, and one copy to the successor Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator, as applicable. If no successor Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator, as applicable, shall have been so appointed and having accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation,
the
resigning Trustee or Securities Administrator may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as applicable.
If
at any
time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall cease to be eligible
in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof or if at any time the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be legally unable to act, or
shall
be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as applicable, or of its property shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as applicable, or of its property or affairs for
the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if the Trustee (in
its capacity as Custodian) or the Securities Administrator fails to provide
an
assessment of compliance or an attestation report required under Section 3.16
within 15 calendar days of March 1 of each calendar year in which Exchange
Act
reports are required then the Depositor may remove the Trustee or the Trustee
may remove the Securities Administrator, as applicable. If the Depositor or
the
Trustee removes the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively under
the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Depositor or the
Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator that meets the requirements of Section 8.06, as applicable, by
written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, so
removed, one copy to the successor Trustee or successor Securities
Administrator, as applicable, and one copy to the Master Servicer.
141
The
Majority Certificateholders may at any time remove the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator by written instrument or instruments delivered to the Depositor
and the Trustee; the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint
a
successor Trustee or successor Securities Administrator, as applicable, in
accordance with this Section.
Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and
appointment of a successor Trustee or a successor Securities Administrator,
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become
effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or a
successor Securities Administrator, as applicable, as provided in Section 8.08
hereof. If the Trustee or the Securities Administrator is removed pursuant
to
this Section 8.07, it shall be reimbursed any outstanding and unpaid fees and
expenses, and if removed under the authority of the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall also be reimbursed
any outstanding and unpaid costs and expenses.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Master Servicer
resigns or is removed as Master Servicer hereunder, the Securities Administrator
shall have the right to resign immediately as Securities Administrator by giving
written notice to the Depositor and the Trustee, with a copy to each Rating
Agency.
SECTION
8.08. Successor Trustee and Successor Securities Administrator.
Any
successor Trustee or successor Securities Administrator appointed as provided
in
Section 8.07 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor,
the
Seller and the Master Servicer and to its predecessor Trustee or Securities
Administrator an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Securities
Administrator shall become effective, and such successor Trustee or successor
Securities Administrator, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of
its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee or
Securities Administrator. The Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer and
the
predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully
and
certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as applicable, all such rights, powers, duties and
obligations.
142
No
successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall accept appointment as
provided in this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 8.06 hereof and the appointment of such successor Trustee
or Securities Administrator shall not result in a downgrading of the Senior
Certificates by either Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating
Agency.
Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Securities Administrator
as
provided in this Section 8.08, the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator
shall mail notice of the appointment of a successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
SECTION
8.09. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Securities
Administrator.
Any
entity into which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may be merged
or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from
any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to the corporate trust
business of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, shall be the successor
of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, hereunder,
provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06
and
8.08 hereof, 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.
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 any Mortgaged Property may at the time be located, the Depositor and the
Trustee acting jointly shall have the power, and the Trustee shall, and shall
instruct the Depositor to, 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, at the
expense of the Trust Fund, 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, 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. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder
shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under
Section 8.06 hereof, and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment
of
any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 8.08
hereof.
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) all
rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee
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 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;
143
(ii) no
trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee hereunder; and
(iii) the
Depositor and the Trustee, acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation
of or remove any 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 then separate trustees and co-trustees, 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
Depositor.
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. Limitation of Liability.
The
Certificates are executed by the Securities Administrator, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trust Fund,
in
the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this
Agreement. Each of the undertakings and agreements made on the part of the
Securities Administrator in the Certificates is made and intended not as a
personal undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made and intended for
the purpose of binding only the Trust Fund.
SECTION
8.12. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Certificates.
(a) All
rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the Certificates may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Certificates or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto,
and
such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
or in
its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of such Certificates,
subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursement and advances of the Trustee (for the avoidance of doubt, in its
individual capacity and as Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund), its agents
and
counsel, be for the ratable benefit or the Certificateholders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered.
144
(b) The
Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor and each Certificateholder upon
reasonable notice during normal business hours at its Corporate Trust Office
or
other office designated by the Trustee, access to all records maintained by
the
Trustee in respect of its duties hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee
responsible for performing such duties. Upon request, the Trustee shall furnish
the Depositor and any requesting Certificateholder with its most recent audited
financial statements. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the
Depositor and such Certificateholder and shall, subject to the first sentence
of
this Section 8.12(b), make available to the Seller, the Depositor and such
Certificateholder for review and copying such books, documents or records as
may
be requested with respect to the Trustee’s duties hereunder. The Seller, the
Depositor and the Certificateholders shall not have any responsibility or
liability for any action or failure to act by the Trustee and are not obligated
to supervise the performance of the Trustee under this Agreement or
otherwise.
(c) The
Securities Administrator shall afford the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee
and
each Certificateholder upon reasonable notice during normal business hours
at
its offices at 0000 Xxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 or other office
designated by the Securities Administrator, access to all records maintained
by
the Securities Administrator in respect of its duties hereunder and access
to
officers of the Securities Administrator responsible for performing such duties.
Upon request, the Securities Administrator shall furnish the Depositor and
any
requesting Certificateholder with its most recent audited financial statements.
The Securities Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the
Depositor, the Trustee and such Certificateholder and shall, subject to the
first sentence of this Section 8.12(c), make available to the Seller, the
Depositor and such Certificateholder for review and copying such books,
documents or records as may be requested with respect to the Securities
Administrator’s duties hereunder. The Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action
or failure to act by the Securities Administrator and are not obligated to
supervise the performance of the Securities Administrator under this Agreement
or otherwise.
SECTION
8.13. Suits for Enforcement.
In
case
an Event of Default or a default by the Depositor hereunder shall occur and
be
continuing, the Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement, as the case may be,
by a
suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the
specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement
or
in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Agreement or for the
enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee,
being
advised by counsel, and subject to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual
to
protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders.
145
SECTION
8.14. Waiver of Bond Requirement.
The
Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives, any
requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust Fund, or any part thereof,
may be located that the Trustee post a bond or other surety with any court,
agency or body whatsoever.
SECTION
8.15. Waiver of Inventory, Accounting and Appraisal Requirement.
The
Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives, any
requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust Fund, or any part thereof,
may be located that the Trustee file any inventory, accounting or appraisal
of
the Trust Fund with any court, agency or body at any time or in any manner
whatsoever.
SECTION
8.16. Appointment of Custodians.
The
Trustee may appoint one or more custodians to hold all or a portion of the
related Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a custodial
agreement. The custodian may at any time be terminated and a substitute
custodian appointed therefor by the Trustee. Subject to this Article VIII,
the
Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each custodial agreement and to
enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the custodian for the benefit
of the Certificateholders having an interest in any Mortgage File held by such
custodian. Each custodian shall be a depository institution or trust company
subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have combined
capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. The Seller
shall pay from its own funds, without any right to reimbursement, the fees,
costs and expenses of each custodian (including the costs of custodian’s
counsel).
ARTICLE
IX
REMIC
ADMINISTRATION
SECTION
9.01. REMIC Administration.
(a) As
set
forth in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement, two REMIC elections shall
be made by the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall sign and the Securities
Administrator shall file such elections on Form 1066 or other appropriate
federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending on the last day
of
the calendar year in which the Certificates are issued. The regular interests
in
each REMIC created hereunder and the related residual interest shall be as
designated in the Preliminary Statement. Following the Closing Date, the
Securities Administrator shall apply to the Internal Revenue Service for an
employer identification number for each REMIC created hereunder by means of
a
Form SS-4 or other acceptable method and shall file a Form 8811 with the
Internal Revenue Service.
(b) The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC created
hereunder within the meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
146
(c) Except
as
provided in subsection (d) of this Section 9.01, the Securities Administrator
shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC
created hereunder, including but not limited to any professional fees or
expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with
respect to any such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state
tax
authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or
routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of
litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities
(including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful
misconduct of the Securities Administrator in fulfilling its duties hereunder
(including the Securities Administrator’s duties as tax return
preparer).
(d) The
Securities Administrator shall prepare and file, and the Trustee shall sign
all
of the federal and state tax and information returns of each REMIC created
hereunder (collectively, the “Tax
Returns”)
as the
direct representative. The expenses of preparing and filing such Tax Returns
shall be borne by the Securities Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Securities Administrator shall have no obligation to prepare, file or
otherwise deal with partnership tax information or returns. In the event that
partnership tax information or returns are required by the Internal Revenue
Service, the Seller, at its own cost and expense, will prepare and file all
necessary returns.
The
Internal Revenue Service has issued OID regulations under Sections 1271 to
1275
of the Code generally addressing the treatment of debt instruments issued with
original issue discount. Under those regulations, debt issued to one Person
generally is aggregated in determining if there is OID. Because certain Classes
of Regular Certificates are expected to be issued to one Person (which intends
to continue to hold the Regular Certificates indefinitely and, in any case,
for
at least 30 days), the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Trust Fund,
intends to determine the existence and amount of any OID as if those Classes
of
Regular Certificates were one debt instrument.
(e) The
Securities Administrator shall perform on behalf of each REMIC created hereunder
all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of
each such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other compliance
guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing
authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions
or other such guidance, the Securities Administrator, shall provide (i) to
the
Treasury or other governmental authority such information as is necessary for
the application of any tax relating to the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate
to any disqualified organization and (ii) to the Certificateholders such
information or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC
Provisions.
(f) Each
of
the Trustee and the Securities Administrator (to the extent that the affairs
of
the REMICs are within such Person’s control and the scope of its specific
responsibilities under the Agreement) and the Holders of Certificates shall
take
any action or cause any REMIC created hereunder to take any action necessary
to
create or maintain the status of the REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under
the REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary to create or
maintain such status. None of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or
the
Holder of a Residual Certificate shall take any action, cause any REMIC created
hereunder to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken)
any
action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case
may
be, could result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will
not
result in an Adverse REMIC Event. In addition, prior to taking any action with
respect to any REMIC created hereunder or the assets therein, or causing any
such REMIC to take any action which is not expressly permitted under the terms
of this Agreement, any Holder of the Class A-R Certificate will consult with
the
Securities Administrator or its designees, in writing, with respect to whether
such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any
such
REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause any REMIC created
hereunder to take any such action as to which the Securities Administrator
has
advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
147
(g) Each
Holder of the Class A-R Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed
on any REMIC created hereunder by federal or state governmental authorities.
To
the extent that such Trust Fund taxes are not paid by the Class A-R
Certificateholder, the Securities Administrator shall pay any remaining REMIC
taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder
of
the Class A-R Certificate or, if no such amounts are available, out of other
amounts held in the Distribution Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise
payable to holders of regular interests in such REMIC, as the case may
be.
(h) The
Securities Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books
and records with respect to each REMIC created hereunder on a calendar year
and
on an accrual basis.
(i) No
additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC created hereunder,
except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to eligible
substitute mortgage loans.
(j) Neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall enter into any arrangement
by
which any REMIC created hereunder will receive a fee or other compensation
for
services.
(k) The
Securities Administrator shall treat each Basis Risk Reserve Fund and the Yield
Maintenance Account as outside reserve funds within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h), and not as assets of any REMIC. The Holders
of
the Class 1-X Certificates are the owners of the Group 1 Basis Risk Reserve
Fund
and the portion of the Yield Maintenance Account attributable to Yield
Maintenance Agreements related to Group 1 Certificates, the Holders of the
Class
2-X Certificates are the owners of the Group 2A Basis Risk Reserve Fund and
the
portion of the Yield Maintenance Account attributable to Yield Maintenance
Agreements related to Group 2 Certificates, and the Holders of the Class 2-X-B
Certificates are the owners of the Group 2B Basis Risk Reserve Fund. The
Securities Administrator shall treat the rights of the Holders of the LIBOR
Certificates to receive distributions to cover Basis Risk Shortfalls as payments
under a cap contract written by the Holders of the Class 1-X, Class 2-X and
Class 2-X-B Certificates, as applicable, in favor of the related Holders of
the
LIBOR Certificates. Thus, the LIBOR Certificates shall be treated as
representing not only ownership of regular interests in a REMIC, but also
ownership of an interest in an interest rate cap contract. For purposes of
determining the issue prices of the Certificates, the interest rate cap
contracts shall be assumed to have a zero value unless and until required
otherwise by an applicable taxing authority.
148
SECTION
9.02. Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
Neither
the Depositor nor the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or substitute for any
of
the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure
of a
Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination
of the REMICs created hereunder pursuant to Article X of this Agreement, (iv)
a
substitution pursuant to Article II hereof or (v) a repurchase of Mortgage
Loans
as contemplated hereunder, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC created
hereunder, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account
for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC created hereunder after
the
Closing Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense
of
the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that such
disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not result in an
Adverse REMIC Event.

be
exercisable only if MortgageIT has not elected to exercise its optional
termination right on or before such date.
(b) Notice
of
any termination pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 10.01(a), specifying
the Distribution Date (which shall be a date that would otherwise be a
Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their
Certificates to the Securities Administrator for payment of the final
distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Securities
Administrator upon the Securities Administrator receiving notice of such date
from the Master Servicer by letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier
than the 10th day and not later than the 19th day of the month of such
final distribution specifying (1) the Distribution Date upon which final
distributions on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender

specified.
(c) Upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Securities Administrator
shall cause to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates on the
Distribution Date for such final distribution, in proportion to the Percentage
Interests of their respective Class and to the extent that funds are available
for such purpose, an amount equal to the amount required to be distributed
to
such Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 hereof for
such Distribution Date.
(d) In
the
event that all Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for
final payment and cancellation on or before such final Distribution Date, the
Securities Administrator shall promptly following such date cause all funds
in
the Distribution Account not distributed in final distribution to
Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining
Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate account for the
benefit of such Certificateholders, and the Securities Administrator 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 nine months after the second notice all the Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Master Servicer shall
be
entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets which remain subject hereto,
and the Securities Administrator upon transfer of such funds shall be discharged
of any responsibility for such funds, and the Certificateholders shall look
to
the Master Servicer for payment.

MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS
SECTION
12.01. Amendment.
This
Agreement may be amended from time to time by Seller, the Depositor, the Master

of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to correct
or supplement any provisions herein which may be defective or inconsistent

respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not
be
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or (iv) to conform the
terms
hereof to the description thereof provided in the Prospectus; provided,
however,
that
any such action listed in clause (i) through (iii) above shall be
deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, if evidenced by (i) written notice to the Depositor, the
Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee from
each Rating Agency that such action will not result in the reduction or
withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates with respect
to which it is a Rating Agency or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that
such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests
of any Certificateholder, is permitted by the Agreement and all the conditions
precedent, if any have been complied with, delivered to the Master Servicer,
the
Securities Administrator and the Trustee.
151
In
addition, this Agreement may be amended from time to time by Seller, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee
and
with the consent of the Majority Certificateholders 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 or waiver shall (x) reduce in any manner the amount of, or
delay the timing of, payments on the Certificates that are required to be made
on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate,
(y) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders
of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in clause

above, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class
evidencing at least a 66% Percentage Interest in such Class, or (z) reduce
the percentage of Voting Rights required by clause (y) above without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
Upon
approval of an amendment, a copy of such amendment shall be sent to each Rating
Agency.
Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall not consent
to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received an
Opinion of Counsel, delivered by and at the expense of the Person seeking such
Amendment (unless such Person is the Trustee, in which case the Trustee shall
be
entitled to be reimbursed for such expenses by the Trust Fund pursuant to
Section 8.05 hereof), to the effect that such amendment will not result in
the
imposition of a tax on any REMIC created hereunder pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions or cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC
at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding and that the amendment is being
made in accordance with the terms hereof, such amendment is permitted by this
Agreement and all conditions precedent, if any, have been complied
with.
Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall furnish, at the
expense of the Person that requested the amendment if such Person is the Seller
(but in no event at the expense of the Securities Administrator or the Trustee),
otherwise at the expense of the Trust Fund, a copy of such amendment and the
Opinion of Counsel referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph to the
Master Servicer and each Rating Agency.
It
shall
not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section 12.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment;
instead 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 Securities Administrator may
prescribe.
152
The
Trustee and Securities Administrator may, but shall not be obligated to, enter
into any amendment pursuant to this 12.01 Section that affects its rights,
duties and immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
SECTION
12.02. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
To
the
extent permitted by applicable law, 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 Mortgaged Properties
are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Trustee at the expense of the Trust
Fund,
but only upon direction of Certificateholders 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 together constitute but one and the same
instrument.
SECTION
12.03. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.
The
death
or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not (i) operate to terminate
this Agreement or the Trust Fund, (ii) entitle such Certificateholder’s
legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action
or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust Fund or
(iii) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them.
Except
as
expressly provided for herein, no Certificateholder shall have any right to
vote
or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust
Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set
forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so as to
constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members
of an
association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third
person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant
to any provision hereof.
No
Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this
Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon
or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall
have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance
thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have made written request
upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name
as
Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to
be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 15 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 is understood and intended,
and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, that no one
or
more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by
virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the
rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek
to
obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority
or
preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under
this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of the provisions of this Section 12.03, each and every Certificateholder
and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at
law
or in equity.

(b) All
collections, proceeds and other amounts in respect of such derivative contracts
payable by the derivative counterparty shall be distributed to the Certificates
on the Distribution Date following receipt thereof by the Securities
Administrator.

derivative contract shall terminate upon the direction of a majority of the
Voting Rights of the Certificates, and (iv) prohibit the derivative counterparty
from “setting-off’ or “netting” other obligations of the Trust Fund against such
derivative counterparty’s payment obligations thereunder.
157
(e) The
Seller shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether any derivative contract

to
provide to any Certificateholders and to any prospective purchaser of
Certificates designated by such holder, upon the request of such holder or
prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided to such holder

prospective purchaser to satisfy the condition set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4)
