This
TRUST AGREEMENT dated as of May 1, 2007 (the “Agreement”), is by and among
STRUCTURED ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as depositor
(the “Depositor”), AURORA LOAN SERVICES LLC, as Master Servicer (the “Master
Servicer”), and XXXXX
FARGO BANK, N.A.,
as
trustee (the “Trustee”).
PRELIMINARY
STATEMENT
The
Depositor has acquired the Mortgage Loans from Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings Inc.
(the “Seller”) and at the Closing Date is the owner of the Mortgage Loans and
the other property being conveyed by it to the Trustee for inclusion in the
Trust Fund. On the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire the Certificates
from the Trust Fund, as consideration for its transfer to the Trust Fund of
the
Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund. The Depositor
has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement to provide
for
the conveyance to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and the other property
constituting the Trust Fund. All covenants and agreements made by the Depositor,
the Master Servicer and the Trustee herein with respect to the Mortgage Loans
and the other property constituting the Trust Fund are for the benefit of the
Holders from time to time of the Certificates. The Depositor and the Master
Servicer are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the
Trust Fund created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
As
provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (excluding the
Supplemental Interest Trust, the Supplemental Prepayment Trust, the Class P
Distributable Amount, any Cap Agreement, any Basis Risk Reserve Fund and any
FPD
Premiums) be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising three real
estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative,
REMIC I, REMIC II and REMIC III (the “Upper Tier REMIC”)). Each Underlying REMIC
Certificate and each Certificate (other than the Exchange and Exchangeable
Certificates, the Class P Components of the Class 12-A3 and Class 12-A8
Certificates, the Class P, Class X, Class LT-R and Class R Certificates, and
exclusive of the right to receive any FPD Premiums in the case of the Class
2-A2, Class 8-A2 and Class 12-A2 Certificates), represents ownership of one
or
more regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions. The Class LT-R Certificate represents ownership of the sole class
of
residual interest in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class
R
Certificate represents ownership of the sole class of residual interest in
each
remaining REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.
The
Upper
Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the several Classes of uncertificated Lower
Tier Interests in REMIC II, other than the Class R-2 Interest, and each such
Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC II.
REMIC II shall hold as its assets the several Classes of uncertificated Lower
Tier Interests in REMIC I, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby
designated as a regular interest in REMIC I. REMIC I shall hold as its assets
the property of the Trust Fund other than the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC
I
and REMIC II.
The
startup day for each REMIC created hereby for purposes of the REMIC Provisions
is the Closing Date. In addition, for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the
latest possible maturity date for each regular interest in each REMIC created
hereby is the later (or latest) date provided in the definition of Latest
Possible Maturity Date.
1
REMIC
I:
REMIC
I
shall issue one uncertificated interest in respect of each Mortgage Loan held
by
the Trust on the Closing Date, each of which is hereby designated as a regular
interest in REMIC I (the “REMIC I Regular Interests”). Each REMIC I Regular
Interest shall have an initial principal balance equal to the Scheduled
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan to which it relates and shall bear
interest at a per annum rate equal to the Net Mortgage Rate of such Mortgage
Loan. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for
such
Mortgage Loan (the “Original Mortgage Loan”), no amount of interest payable on
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be distributed on such REMIC
I
Regular Interest at a rate in excess of the Net Mortgage Rate of the Original
Mortgage Loan.
On
each
Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute the interest portion of the
Available Distribution Amount (net of expenses described in the preceding
paragraph) with respect to each of the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC I based
on
the above-described interest rates.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the principal portion of the
Available Distribution Amount among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC I in
accordance with the amount of the principal attributable to the Mortgage Loan
corresponding to each such Lower Tier Interests in REMIC I. All losses on the
Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC I
in
the same manner that principal distributions are allocated.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute Soft Prepayment Penalties and
Hard Prepayment Penalties in respect of the Mortgage Loans collected during
the
preceding Prepayment Period and payable to the Class 12-A6 and Class 12-A7
Certificates to the Lower Tier Interest in REMIC I corresponding to the Mortgage
Loan with respect to which such amounts were received.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall first pay or charge as an expense of REMIC
I all expenses of the Trust Fund for such Distribution Date.
REMIC
II
REMIC
II
shall hold as assets the REMIC I Regular Interests. REMIC II shall issue the
several classes of uncertificated REMIC II Interests set out below. Each such
REMIC II Interest, other than the Class R-2 Interest, is hereby designated
as a
regular interest in REMIC II. The following table specifies the Class
designation, interest rate, and principal amount for each Class of REMIC II

transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Trustee,
without recourse, subject to Sections 2.02, 2.04, 2.05 and 2.06, in trust,
all
the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Mortgage Loans.
Such conveyance includes, without limitation, the right to all distributions
of

or

to such date and intended by the related Mortgagors to be applied after such
date, together with all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to

rights under any Insurance Policies related to the Mortgage Loans, and the
Depositor’s security interest in any collateral pledged to secure the Mortgage
Loans, including the Mortgaged Properties and any Additional Collateral, and
any
proceeds of the foregoing, to have and to hold, in trust; and the Trustee
declares that, subject to the review provided for in Section 2.02, it (or a
Custodian on its behalf) has received and shall hold the Trust Fund, as trustee,
in trust, for the benefit and use of the Holders of the Certificates and for
the
purposes and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
and, concurrently with such receipt, has caused to be executed, authenticated
and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, in exchange for the Trust
Fund, Certificates in the authorized denominations evidencing the entire

Concurrently

Servicing Agreements and Transfer Agreements (other than first payment date

to exercise all rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement
as if, for such purpose, it were the Depositor. The foregoing sale, transfer,
assignment, set-over, deposit and conveyance does not and is not intended to
result in creation or assumption by the Trustee of any obligation of the
Depositor, the Seller, or any other Person in connection with the Mortgage
Loans
or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto except as specifically
set

in

to

cap
agreement upon the expiration or termination of any such Cap
Agreement.

Prepayment Trust, the Designated Mortgage Loans and all the Depositor’s rights
in that regard with respect to the Designated Agreement. With respect to clause

Date.
It
is
agreed and understood by the Depositor and the Trustee (and the Depositor has
so
represented and recognized in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement) that it is

case of an Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a written Opinion of
Counsel acceptable to the Depositor that such original Intervening Assignment
is
not required to enforce the Trustee’s interest in the Mortgage
Loans;
60

however,
that
such Assignments of Mortgage need not be recorded if, in the Opinion of Counsel
(which must be from Independent counsel) (which Opinion of Counsel may be in
the
form of a memorandum of law) acceptable to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies,
recording in such states is not required to protect the Trustee’s interest in
the related Non-MERS Mortgage Loans. Subject to the preceding sentence, as
soon
as practicable after the Closing Date (but in no event more than 3 months
thereafter except to the extent delays are caused by the applicable recording
office), the Trustee, at the expense of the Depositor and with the cooperation

required to cure such Material Defect (and, in such event, the Depositor shall
provide the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate confirming that such cure has
been effected). If the applicable Transferor or the Depositor, as applicable,
does not so cure such Material Defect, it shall, if a loss has been incurred
with respect to such Mortgage Loan that would, if such Mortgage Loan were not
purchased from the Trust Fund, constitute a Realized Loss, and such loss is
attributable to the failure of the applicable Transferor or the Depositor to
cure such Material Defect, repurchase the related Mortgage Loan from the Trust
Fund at the Purchase Price. A loss shall be deemed to be attributable to the
failure of the applicable Transferor or the Depositor to cure a Material Defect
if, as determined by the Depositor, upon mutual agreement with the Master
Servicer acting in good faith, absent such Material Defect, such loss would
not
have been incurred. Within the two-year period following the Closing Date,
the
Depositor may, in lieu of repurchasing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section
2.02, substitute for such Mortgage Loan a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan
subject to the provisions of Section 2.05. The failure of the Trustee or the
applicable Custodian to give the notice contemplated herein within 45 days
after
the Closing Date shall not affect or relieve the Depositor of its obligation
to
repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02 or any other Section
of this Agreement requiring the repurchase of Mortgage Loans from the Trust
Fund.
63
(d) Within
180 days following the Closing Date, the Trustee, or the applicable Custodian,
shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicers and the Master
Servicer a Final Certification substantially in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit B-3 (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as
Exhibit B-3, as applicable evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files
in
its possession or control, with any exceptions noted thereto.
(e) Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute an assumption by the Trust
Fund, the Trustee or the Certificateholders of any unsatisfied duty, claim
or
other liability on any Mortgage Loan or to any Mortgagor.
(f) Each
of
the parties hereto acknowledges that each Custodian shall perform the applicable
review of the Mortgage Loans covered by its Custodial Agreement and deliver
the
respective certifications thereof as provided in this Section 2.02.
(g) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto acknowledge that
the functions of the Trustee with respect to the custody, acceptance, inspection
and release of Mortgage Files, including but not limited to certain insurance
policies and documents contemplated by this Agreement or the Servicing
Agreement(s), and preparation and delivery of the certifications shall be
performed by the Custodians pursuant to the terms and conditions of the
Custodial Agreements.
(h) The
Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee, is hereby authorized and directed
by
the Depositor to execute and deliver, concurrently with the execution of this
Agreement, the Custodial Agreements and Servicing Agreements.
Section
2.03. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.
(a) The
Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the benefit of
Certificateholders, and to the Master Servicer, as of the Closing Date or such
other date as is specified, that:
(i) the
Depositor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws governing its creation and existence and has full corporate
power
and authority to own its property, to carry on its business as presently
conducted, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement,
and
to create the trust pursuant hereto;
(ii) the
execution and delivery by the Depositor of this Agreement have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Depositor;
neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation
of
the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof,
will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under,
any
of the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment, decree
or
order binding on the Depositor or its properties or the certificate of
incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor;
(iii) the
execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement and
the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent
or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking
of
any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental
authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken
prior to the date hereof;
64
(iv) this
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Depositor and, assuming
due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee and the Master
Servicer, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Depositor
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as such
enforceability may be subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws
and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors
generally and (B) general principles of equity regardless of whether such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(v) there
are
no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor,
threatened or likely to be asserted against or affecting the Depositor, before
or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body (A)
with
respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (B) with
respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the Depositor will be
determined adversely to the Depositor and will if determined adversely to the
Depositor materially and adversely affect it or its business, assets, operations
or condition, financial or otherwise, or adversely affect its ability to perform
its obligations under this Agreement; and
(vi) immediately
prior to the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee,
the
Depositor was the sole owner of record and holder of each Mortgage Loan, and
the
Depositor had good and marketable title thereto, and had full right to transfer
and sell each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee free and clear, subject only to
(1)
liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable
and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, any lien for
common charges permitted by statute, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date
of
recording of such Mortgage acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the
area in which the related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically
referred to in the lender’s Title Insurance Policy or attorney’s opinion of
title and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage Loan,
and (3) such other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which
do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits
of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage, of any encumbrance,
equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
interest, and had full right and authority, subject to no interest or
participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) The
representations and warranties of each Transferor with respect to the related
Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement, which have been assigned
to
the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in the applicable
Transfer Agreement (or underlying agreement, if such Transfer Agreement is
in
the form of an assignment of a prior agreement). To the extent that any fact,
condition or event with respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of
both
(i) a representation or warranty of the applicable Transferor under the
applicable Transfer Agreement and (ii) a representation or warranty of LBH
under
the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, the only right or remedy of the Trustee or
of
any Certificateholder shall be the Trustee’s right to enforce the obligations of
the applicable Transferor under any applicable representation or warranty made
by it. The Trustee acknowledges that LBH shall have no obligation or liability
with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made by it with
respect to the Mortgage Loans if the fact, condition or event constituting
such
breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty made by the
applicable Transferor in the applicable Transfer Agreement, without regard
to
whether such Transferor fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of
such
representation or warranty. The Trustee further acknowledges that the Depositor
shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any breach of any
representation or warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans under any
circumstances.
65
Section
2.04. Discovery of Breach.
It
is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties (i) of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.03 hereof, (ii) of LBH set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by the Depositor
hereunder and (iii) of each Transferor, assigned by LBH to the Depositor
pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by
the
Depositor hereunder, shall each survive delivery of the Mortgage Files and
the
Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and shall continue
throughout the term of this Agreement. Upon discovery by any of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of such representations
and warranties that adversely and materially affects the value of the related
Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties; provided, to the extent that knowledge of such
breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan is known by any officer, director,
employee or agent of Aurora Loan Services LLC acting in any capacity other
than
as Master Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any such breach until an officer of the Master Servicer has actual
knowledge thereof. Within 90 days of the discovery of a breach of any
representation or warranty given to the Trustee by the Depositor, any Transferor
or LBH and assigned to the Trustee hereunder, the Depositor, such Transferor
or
LBH shall either (a) cure such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase
such Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee
at the Purchase Price (or in the case of a First Payment Default Mortgage Loan,
the FPD Purchase Price) or (c) within the two year period following the Closing
Date, substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage
Loan. In the event of the discovery of a breach of any representation and
warranty of any Transferor assigned to the Trustee, the Trustee shall enforce
its rights under the applicable Transfer Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Sale
Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders. As provided in the Mortgage
Loan Sale Agreement, if any Transferor substitutes for a Mortgage Loan for
which
there is a breach of any representations and warranties in the related Transfer
Agreement which adversely and materially affects the value of such Mortgage
Loan
and such substitute mortgage loan is not a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan,
under the terms of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, LBH will, in exchange
for
such Substitute Mortgage Loan, either (i) provide the applicable Purchase
Price for the affected Mortgage Loan or (ii) within two years of the
Closing Date, substitute such affected Mortgage Loan with a Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan.
66
Section
2.05. Repurchase, Purchase or Substitution of Mortgage
Loans.
(a) With
respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor pursuant to this
Agreement by LBH pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement or by any
Transferor pursuant to the applicable Transfer Agreement, the principal portion
of the funds (including the FPD Purchase Price in the case of any First Payment
Default Mortgage Loan) received by the Trustee in respect of such repurchase
of
a Mortgage Loan will be considered a Principal Prepayment and the Purchase
Price
or FPD Purchase Price, as applicable, shall be deposited in the Certificate
Account. The Trustee, upon receipt by LBH or a Transferor of the full amount
of
the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, or upon its receipt of
notification from the applicable Custodian that it has received the Mortgage
File for a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan substituted for a Deleted
Mortgage Loan (and any applicable Substitution Amount), shall release or cause
to be released and reassigned to the Depositor, LBH or the applicable
Transferor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File for the Deleted Mortgage
Loan and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment,
in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be necessary
to vest in such party or its designee or assignee title to any Deleted Mortgage
Loan released pursuant hereto, free and clear of all security interests, liens
and other encumbrances created by this Agreement, which instruments shall be
prepared by the applicable Servicer or the Trustee (or the applicable
Custodian), and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with respect
to
the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Seller indemnifies
and holds the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and each Certificateholder
harmless against any and all taxes, claims, losses, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, fees and expenses that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and
any
Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any actions of the Seller
relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the
terms of this Section 2.05 and the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, to the extent
that any such action causes (i) any federal or state tax to be imposed on the
Trust Fund, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited
transactions” under Section 860F(2) of the Code, or (ii) any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is
outstanding.
(b) With
respect to each Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan to be delivered to the
Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) pursuant to the terms of this Article
II
in exchange for a Deleted Mortgage Loan: (i) the Depositor, the applicable
Transferor or LBH must deliver to the Trustee (or the applicable Custodian)
the
Mortgage File for the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan containing the
documents set forth in Section 2.01(b) along with a written certification
certifying as to the delivery of such Mortgage File and containing the granting
language set forth in Section 2.01(a); and (ii) the Depositor will be deemed
to
have made, with respect to such Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, each of
the
representations and warranties made by it with respect to the related Deleted
Mortgage Loan. As soon as practicable after the delivery of any Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan hereunder, the Master Servicer, at the expense of
the
Depositor and at the direction and with the cooperation of the applicable
Servicer, shall, with respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that
is a
Non-MERS Mortgage Loan, cause the Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded by
such
Servicer if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(i), or such Servicer shall,
with respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee
to be
clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of
MERS if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(ii).
67
(c) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the right to substitute Mortgage Loans
pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the additional limitations
that
no substitution of a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan shall be made unless the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel (at
the
expense of the party seeking to make the substitution) that, under current
law,
such substitution will not (A) affect adversely the status of any REMIC
established hereunder as a REMIC, or of the related “regular interests” as
“regular interests” in any such REMIC, or (B) cause any such REMIC to engage in
a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions.
Section
2.06. Grant Clause.
(a) It
is
intended that the conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and
to property constituting the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall
constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant
of a security interest to secure a loan. However, if such conveyance is deemed
to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that: (1) the rights and obligations
of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
(2)
the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of
the
Certificates a first priority security interest to secure repayment of an
obligation in an amount equal to the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the
Certificates (or the aggregate principal balance of the Lower tier REMIC I
Uncertificated Regular Interests, if applicable) in all of the Depositor’s
right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, the Trust Fund and all proceeds of any and all property constituting
the Trust Fund to secure payment of the Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC I
Uncertificated Regular Interests, as applicable; and (3) this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is
deemed to be in respect of a loan and the Trust created by this Agreement
terminates prior to the satisfaction of the claims of any Person holding any
Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests, as
applicable, the security interest created hereby shall continue in full force
and effect and the Trustee shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the
benefit of such Person, and all proceeds shall be distributed as herein
provided.
(b) The
Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other
property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will
be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Depositor will,
at
its own expense, make all initial filings on or about the Closing Date and
shall
forward a copy of such filing or filings to the Trustee. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and forward for filing,
or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of the Depositor,
all
filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings
necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect the Trustee’s security interest in
or lien on the Mortgage Loans, including without limitation (x) continuation
statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change
of name of the Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee, (2) any change of location
of the jurisdiction of organization of the Seller or the Depositor, (3) any
transfer of any interest of the Seller or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan
or
(4) any change under the relevant UCC or other applicable laws. Neither the
Seller nor the Depositor shall organize under the law of any jurisdiction other
than the State under which each is organized as of the Closing Date (whether
changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing under an additional
jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice of such action to
its
transferee, including the Trustee. Before effecting such change, the Seller
or
the Depositor proposing to change its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare
and file in the appropriate filing office any financing statements or other
statements necessary to continue the perfection of the interests of its
transferees, including the Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans. In connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Seller and the
Depositor authorizes its transferee to file in any filing office any initial
financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, any continuation
statements, or any other statements or filings described in this paragraph
(b).

III

Certificates will be evidenced by one or more certificates, beneficial ownership
of which will be held in the dollar denominations in Certificate Principal
Amount or Notional Amount, as applicable, or in the Percentage Interests,

other than any Class of Residual Certificates may be issued in any denomination
in excess of the minimum denomination.
69
(b) The

Trustee by an authorized signatory. Each Certificate shall, on original issue,
be authenticated by the Trustee upon the order of the Depositor upon receipt
by
the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) of the Mortgage Files described
in
Section 2.01. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate
a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein,
executed by an authorized signatory of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent,
if any, by manual signature, and such certification upon any Certificate shall
be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been
duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated
the
date of their authentication. At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor may deliver Certificates
executed by the Depositor to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for
authentication and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate
and deliver such Certificates as in this Agreement provided and not otherwise.
(c) The
Privately Offered Certificates offered and sold in reliance on the exemption
from registration under Rule 144A under the Securities Act shall be issued
initially in the form of one or more permanent global Certificates in
definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons with the applicable
legends set forth in Exhibit A added to the forms of such Certificates (each,
a
“Restricted Global Security”), which, in the case of the Privately Offered
Certificates, shall be deposited on behalf of the subscribers for such
Certificates represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC and
registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed and authenticated
by
the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amounts of the
Restricted Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased
by
adjustments made on the records of the Trustee or DTC or its nominee, as the
case may be, as hereinafter provided.
The
Privately Offered Certificates sold in offshore transactions in reliance on
Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent
global Certificates in definitive, fully registered form without interest
coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A hereto added to

the case of the Privately Offered Certificates, shall be deposited on behalf
of
the subscribers for such Certificates represented thereby with the Trustee,
as
custodian for DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed
and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate
principal amounts of the Regulation S Global Securities may from time to time
be
increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee or
DTC
or its nominee, as the case may be, as hereinafter provided.
70
The
Privately Offered Certificates sold to an “accredited investor” under Rule
501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Act shall be issued initially in the form
of one or more Definitive Certificates.
Section
3.02. Registration.
The
Trustee is hereby appointed, and hereby accepts its appointment as, Certificate
Registrar in respect of the Certificates (and, after a Section 7.01(c) Purchase
Event, the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests, if applicable)
and shall maintain books for the registration and for the transfer of
Certificates (and, after a Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Lower Tier REMIC
I Uncertificated Regular Interests, if applicable) (the “Certificate Register”).
A registration book shall be maintained for the Certificates (and, after a
Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular
Interests, if applicable) collectively. The Certificate Registrar may resign
or
be discharged or removed and a new successor may be appointed by the Trustee
in
accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth in Sections 6.06
and
6.07 hereof with respect to the resignation, discharge or removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor Trustee. The Certificate Registrar may
appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Holders and the Master
Servicer, any bank or trust company to act as co-registrar under such conditions
as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe; provided,
however,
that
the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any of its duties or
responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.
Upon
the
occurrence of a Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Master Servicer shall
provide the Trustee with written notice of the identity of any transferee of
the
Master Servicer’s interest in the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular
Interests, which notice shall contain a certification that such transferee
is
permitted LTURI holder. The Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests
may only be transferred in whole and not in part to no more than one LTURI
holder at a time who is either (1) an affiliate of the Master Servicer or (2)
a
trustee of a privately placed securitization. The Trustee and the Depositor
shall treat the Person in whose name the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated
Regular Interests are registered on the books of the Certificate Registrar
as
the LTURI holder for all purposes hereunder.
Section
3.03. Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) A
Certificate (other than Book-Entry Certificates which shall be subject to
Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate
Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by such
Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be satisfactory
to
the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any Certificate in accordance
with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or
any
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee, one
or
more new Certificates of the same Class and evidencing, in the aggregate, the
same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the
Certificate being transferred. No service charge shall be made to a
Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, 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 registration
of transfer of Certificates.
71
(b) A
Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of new
Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in
the
aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the
Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged
at
the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly
authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the
same
obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the
Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder
for any exchange of Certificates (except as provided in the Exchange Trust
Agreement), 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 exchange of Certificates. Whenever any Certificates are
so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates
which
the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
(c) By
acceptance of a Restricted Certificate or a Regulation S Global Security,
whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such
a
Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate
set forth thereon and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only
as
provided herein. In addition, each Holder of a Regulation S Global Security
shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar and any of their respective successors that: (i) such
Person (A) if the offer or sale was made to it prior to the expiration of
the 40-day distribution compliance period within the meaning of Regulation
S, is
not a U.S. person within the meaning of Regulation S and (B) was, at the time
the buy order was originated, outside the United States and (ii) such Person
understands that such Certificates have not been registered under the Securities
Act, and that (x) until the expiration of the 40-day distribution compliance
period (within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer, sale, pledge or other
transfer of such Certificates or any interest therein shall be made in the
United States or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person (each as
defined in Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to offer, resell,
pledge or otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be
offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a person which
the
seller reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) as
defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, that is purchasing such
Certificates for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional
buyer to which notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance
on
Rule 144A or (B) in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in
compliance with the provisions of Regulation S, in each case in compliance
with
the requirements of this Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the
transfer restrictions specified in this Section.
The
following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration
of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes delivery
in
the form of a Definitive Certificate:
(i) The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
if
the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor, the Servicers or the Placement
Agent or to an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)
of
the Depositor or the Placement Agent or (y) being made to a QIB by a transferor
that has provided the Trustee with a certificate in the form of Exhibit F
hereto; and
72
(ii) The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
if
the requested transfer is being made to an “accredited investor” under Rule
501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act by a transferor who
furnishes to the Trustee a letter of the transferee substantially in the form
of
Exhibit G hereto.
(d) No
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive
Certificate shall be made to any Person or shall be effective unless the Trustee
has received (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto
(or
Exhibit D-1, in the case of a Residual Certificate) from such transferee or
(B)
other than in the case of the Class 12-A3, Class 12-A6, Class 12-A7 and Class
12-A8, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the
effect that the purchase and holding of such a Certificate will not constitute
or result in prohibited transactions under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975
of
the Code and will not subject the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Depositor
to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement; provided,
however,
that
the Trustee will not require such certificate or opinion in the event that,
as a
result of a change of law or otherwise, the Trustee receives an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted
Certificate by a Plan or a Person that is purchasing or holding such a
Certificate with the assets of a Plan will not constitute or result in a
prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.
Each
Transferee of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate
shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Exhibit H. The
preparation and delivery of the certificate and opinions referred to above
shall
not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the
Depositor.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no opinion or certificate shall be required for the initial
issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates. The Trustee shall have no
obligation to monitor transfers of Book-Entry Certificates that are
ERISA-Restricted Certificates and shall have no liability for transfers of
such
Certificates in violation of the transfer restrictions. The Trustee shall be
under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any
ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section
3.03(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof
or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions
of
this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in
accordance with the foregoing requirements. The Trustee shall be entitled,
but
not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate
that was in fact a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan any payments
made
on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after either such time. Any such
payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee
to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not such a Plan or
Person acting on behalf of a Plan.
73
(i) No
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate shall be made prior to the
termination of the related Cap Agreement unless the Trustee shall have received
a representation letter from the transferee of such Certificate, substantially
in the form set forth in Exhibit H, to the effect that either (i) such
transferee is neither a Plan nor a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan
or
using the assets of any such Plan to effect such transfer or (ii) the
acquisition and holding of the ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate are eligible
for exemptive relief under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”)
00-00, XXXX 00-0, XXXX 91-38, XXXX 00-00, XXXX 96-23 or the statutory exemption
for non-fiduciary service providers under Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer
of
an ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate prior to the termination of the related
Cap Agreement to or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Trustee
of a
representation letter as described above shall be void and of no effect. If
the
ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, prior to the
termination of the related Cap Agreement, the transferee will be deemed to
have
made a representation as provided in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph,
as
applicable.
If
any
ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate, or any interest therein, is acquired or
held
in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the next preceding
permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that
Certificate, retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial
owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of an
ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate, or interest therein, was effected in
violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall indemnify to the
extent permitted by law and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee,
the
Trustee
and the Master Servicer from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs
or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or
holding.
To
the
extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA),
the Trustee shall not be under any liability to any Person for any registration
of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section 3.03(d)(ii) or for making any payments due on such
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer
was
registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing
requirements.
(e) As
a
condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate, the
Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer identification number
of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith; provided,
however,
that
the Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to require such payment
or to
determine whether or not any such tax or charge may be applicable. No service
charge shall be made to the Certificateholder for any registration, transfer
or
exchange of Certificate, except as provided in the Exchange Trust
Agreement.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, no Residual Certificate may be owned,
pledged or transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified
Organization or (ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person
unless such person is (A) not a Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a Non-U.S. Person
that
holds a Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States and has furnished the transferor and the
Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or successor
form
at the time and in the manner required by the Code (any such person who is
not
covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein as a “Non-permitted
Foreign Holder”).
74
Prior
to
and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale or other
disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall deliver
to
the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit
D-1 representing and warranting, among other things, that such transferee is
neither a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting on behalf of
a
Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-permitted Foreign Holder (any such
transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”) and the proposed transferor shall deliver
to the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit
D-2. In addition, the Trustee may (but shall have no obligation to) require,
prior to and as a condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed
transferee of an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Depositor and the Trustee
satisfactory in form and substance to the Depositor, that such proposed
transferee or, if the proposed transferee is an agent or nominee, the proposed
beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof,
or Non-permitted Foreign Holder. Notwithstanding the registration in the
Certificate Register of any transfer, sale, or other disposition of a Residual
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee thereof, or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder, such registration shall be deemed to be of no
legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified Organization, agent
or
nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder shall not be deemed to be
a
Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including, but not limited to,
the
receipt of distributions on such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall not
be
under any liability to any person for any registration or transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for the maturity of any payments due on such
Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with
respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as the
transfer was effected in accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge at the time
of
such transfer or the time of such payment or other action that the transferee
is
a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder. The Trustee shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual
Certificate that was a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof,
or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent
time it became a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate
at
and after either such times (and all costs and expenses, including but not
limited to attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith). Any payment (not
including any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the Trustee shall be
paid
and delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual
Certificate.
If
any
purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a Residual Certificate
in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f), then upon receipt of
written notice to the Trustee that the registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 3.03(f), the last
preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
retroactive to the date of such registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted
by this Section 3.03(f), for making any payment due on such Certificate to
the
registered Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such
Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was
registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in the preceding paragraph
of
this Section 3.03(f).
75
(g) Each
Holder of a Residual Certificate, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, shall be
deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this
section.
(h) Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Security representing
any of the Privately Offered Certificates remains outstanding and is held by
or
on behalf of DTC, transfers of a Global Security representing any such
Certificates, in whole or in part, shall only be made in accordance with Section
3.01 and this Section 3.03(h).
(A) Subject
to clauses (B) and (C) of this Section 3.03(h), transfers of a Global Security
representing any of the Privately Offered Certificates shall be limited to
transfers of such Global Security, in whole or in part, to nominees of DTC
or to
a successor of DTC or such successor’s nominee.
(B) 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 DTC 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 DTC,
exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial
interest in the Regulation S Global Security. Upon receipt by the Trustee,
as
Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions from DTC directing the Trustee,
as
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 holder’s Certificates held through a Regulation
S Global Security, (II) a written order given in accordance with DTC’s
procedures containing information regarding the participant account of DTC
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 (III)
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
Regulation S Global Securities, including that the holder is not a U.S. person,
and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the Trustee, as 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.
76
(C) 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 DTC 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 DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of
such
interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security.
Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions
from
DTC directing the Trustee, as 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 holder’s Certificates held
through a Restricted Global Security, to be exchanged, such instructions to
contain information regarding the participant account with DTC to be credited
with such increase, and (II) 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 QIB, is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction
meeting the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act and in accordance
with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States or any
other jurisdiction, then the Trustee, as 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 Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, shall instruct DTC, 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.
(D) Other
Exchanges.
In the
event that a Global Security is exchanged for Certificates in definitive
registered form without interest coupons, pursuant to Section 3.09(c) hereof,
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, comply with Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) or are to non-U.S.
persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, as the case
may be), and as may be from time to time adopted by the Trustee.
(E) Restrictions
on U.S. Transfers.
Transfers of interests in a 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 3.03(h)(C).
Section
3.04. Cancellation of Certificates.
Any
Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
cancelled and retained in accordance with normal retention policies with respect
to cancelled certificates maintained by the Certificate Registrar.
77
Section
3.05. Replacement of Certificates.
If
(i)
any Certificate is mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee or any
Authenticating Agent or (ii) the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate, and there is delivered to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent
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 and any Authenticating
Agent that such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has been acquired by
a
bona
fide
purchaser, the Trustee shall execute and the Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent
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 Certificate Principal Amount (or Notional Amount). Upon the issuance
of any new Certificate under this Section 3.05, the Trustee and Authenticating
Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to
this
Section 3.05 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership
in
the applicable Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost,
stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section
3.06. Persons Deemed Owners.
Subject
to the provisions of Section 3.09 with respect to Book-Entry Certificates,
the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and
any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered upon the books of the Certificate Registrar as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Sections
5.01
and 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Depositor,
the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of any
of
them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section
3.07. Temporary Certificates.
(a) Pending
the preparation of definitive Certificates, upon the order of the Depositor,
the
Trustee shall execute and shall authenticate and deliver temporary Certificates
that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced,
in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive
Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations as the
authorized officers executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced
by
their execution of such Certificates.
(b) If
temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause definitive
Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation
of
definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be exchangeable for
definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary Certificates at the
office or agency of the Trustee without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender
for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Trustee shall
execute and authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate
Certificate Principal Amount of definitive Certificates of the same Class in
the
authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall
in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as
definitive Certificates of the same Class.
78
Section
3.08. Appointment of Paying Agent.
The
Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) for the purpose
of
making distributions to Certificateholders hereunder. The Trustee shall cause
such Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee
that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to
Certificateholders in an Eligible Account, on behalf of the Trustee, in trust
for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums
shall
be paid to the Certificateholders. All funds remitted by the Trustee to any
such
Paying Agent for the purpose of making distributions shall be paid to
Certificateholders on each Distribution Date and any amounts not so paid shall
be returned on such Distribution Date to the Trustee. If the Paying Agent is
not
the Trustee, the Trustee shall cause to be remitted to the Paying Agent on
or
before the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, by wire transfer in
immediately available funds, the funds to be distributed on such Distribution
Date. Any Paying Agent shall be either a bank or trust company or otherwise
authorized under law to exercise corporate trust powers. As of the Closing
Date,
the Trustee is the Paying Agent.
At
any
time during the period that a Form 10-K is being filed with respect to the
Trust
in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission, the Trustee shall not appoint a Paying Agent that is not the Trustee
unless that Paying Agent first agrees in writing with the Trustee (i) to deliver
an assessment of compliance and an accountant’s attestation in such manner and
at such times in compliance with Section 9.25(a) and 9.25(b) of this Agreement,
(ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 9.25(a), 9.25(b), 6.20(e)(i)
and
6.20(e)(iv)of this Agreement and (iii) to indemnify the Depositor and the Master
Servicer, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and
the
Trust Fund and hold each of them harmless as set forth in Section 6.23. For
so
long as the Depositor is subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements with
respect to the Trust, the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall give
prior written notice to the Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the
Depositor of the appointment of any Subcontractor by it and a written
description (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Sponsor and
the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by the
Paying Agent, as applicable, specifying (A) the identity of each such
Subcontractor and (B) which elements of the servicing criteria set forth under
Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB will be addressed in assessments of compliance
provided by each Subcontractor for
which
the Paying Agent does not elect to take responsibility for assessing compliance
with the Servicing Criteria in accordance with Regulation AB Telephone
Interpretation 17.06.
In
addition, for so long as the Depositor is subject to Exchange Act reporting
requirements with respect to the Trust, the Paying Agent (including the Trustee
in its capacity as Paying Agent, to the extent not already required of the
Trustee under this Agreement) shall notify the Sponsor, the Master Servicer,
the
Trustee and the Depositor within five (5) calendar days of knowledge thereof
(i)
of any legal proceedings pending under the Paying Agent of the type described
in
Item 1117 (§
229.1117) of Regulation AB, (ii) any merger, consolidation or sale of
substantially all of the assets of the Paying Agent and (iii) if the Paying
Agent shall become (but only to the extent not previously disclosed) at any
time
an affiliate of any of the parties listed on Exhibit I hereto or any of their
affiliates. On or before March 1st
of each
year, the Depositor shall distribute the information in Exhibit I to the Paying
Agent.
79
Any
Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) agrees to indemnify the Depositor,
the
Trustee (if other than the Paying Agent) and the Master Servicer, and each
of
their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and the Trust Fund
and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties,
fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and
any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising out
of
or based upon the failure by such Paying Agent to deliver any information,
report or certification when and as required under Section 6.20 and Section
9.25(a). This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement
or
the termination of such Paying Agent hereunder.
In
addition, the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) (i) may not be an
originator of Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer, a Servicer, the Depositor
or
an affiliate of the Depositor unless the Paying Agent is in an institutional
trust department of the Paying Agent, (ii) must be authorized to exercise
corporate trust powers under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and
(iii) must be rated at least “A/F1” by Fitch, if Fitch is a Rating Agency that
has rated the Paying Agent, or the equivalent rating by S&P. If no successor
Paying Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted appointment
within 60 days after the Paying Agent ceases to be the Paying Agent pursuant
to
this Section 3.08, then the Trustee shall perform the duties of the Paying
Agent
pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of
any
change of Paying Agent.
Section
3.09. Book-Entry Certificates.
(i) Each
Class of Book-Entry Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in
the
form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing the Book-Entry
Certificates, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, or its custodian,
the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Depositor. The Book-Entry
Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the
name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner will
receive a definitive certificate representing such Certificate Owner’s interest
in the Book-Entry Certificates, except as provided in Section 3.09(c). Unless
Definitive Certificates have been issued to Certificate Owners of Book-Entry
Certificates pursuant to Section 3.09(c):
(ii) the
provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be in full force and effect;
(iii) the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar
and
the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes (including the
making of distributions on the Book-Entry Certificates) as the authorized
representatives of the Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distributions to the accounts
of
such Persons entitled thereto, in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s normal
procedures;
80
(iv) to
the
extent that the provisions of this Section 3.09 conflict with any other
provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall control;
and
(v) the
rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency
and the Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established
by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency
and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive
Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the initial Clearing Agency
will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and
receive and transmit distributions of principal of and interest on the
Book-Entry Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants.
(b) Whenever
notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this
Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued
to
Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the Trustee shall give all
such
notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the
Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.
(c) If
(i)
(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is
no
longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities with respect
to the Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the Trustee or the Depositor is unable
to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating not
less than 50% of the Class Principal Amount (or Class Notional Amount) of a
Class of Book-Entry Certificates identified as such to the Trustee by an
Officer’s Certificate from the Clearing Agency advise the Trustee and the
Clearing Agency through the Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer
in
the best interests of the Certificate Owners of a Class of Book-Entry
Certificates, the Trustee shall notify or cause the Certificate Registrar to
notify the Clearing Agency to effect notification to all Certificate Owners,
through the Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any such event and of the
availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the
Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing
Agency for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates.
Neither the Transferor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any 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
all
references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Clearing
Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to
the
extent applicable, with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Trustee
shall recognize the holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder. None of the Seller, the Depositor, the Underwriter, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership
interests of the Book Entry Certificates held by the Clearing Agency or for
maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests.

Purchase Price or FPD Purchase Price (including any FPD Premium) of any Mortgage
Loan repurchased by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or any other
Person and any Substitution Amount related to any Qualifying Substitute Mortgage
Loan; and
(ix) all
Prepayment Penalty Amounts received in respect of the Designated Mortgage
Loans.
The
Master Servicer shall also deposit from its own funds into the Collection
Account (to the extent not already received from the related Servicer), without
right of reimbursement, an amount equal to any Net Simple Interest Shortfall
(to
the extent not offset by Net Simple Interest Excess) for the related Collection
Period.
(e) Funds
in
the Collection Account may be invested in Eligible Investments (selected by
and
at the written direction of the Master Servicer) which shall mature not later
than the earlier of (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date or (b) the day
on
which the funds in such Collection Account are required to be remitted to the
Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account, and any such Eligible
Investment shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such
Eligible Investments shall be made in the name of the Master Servicer in trust
for the benefit of the Trustee and Holders of the Certificates. All income
and
gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master
Servicer as compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal on order from
time to time, and shall not be part of the Trust Fund. The amount of any losses
incurred in respect of any such investments shall be deposited in the Collection
Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds, without any right of
reimbursement therefor, immediately as realized. The foregoing requirements
for
deposit in the Collection Account are exclusive, it being understood and agreed
that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments of interest
on
funds in the Collection Account and payments in the nature of late payment
charges or assumption fees need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in
the
Collection Account and may be retained by the Master Servicer or the applicable
Servicer as additional servicing compensation. If the Master Servicer deposits
in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein,
it
may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account.
83
Section
4.02. Application of Funds in the Collection Account.
The
Master Servicer may, from time to time, make, or cause to be made, withdrawals
from the Collection Account for the following purposes:
(i) to
reimburse itself or any Servicer for Advances made by it or by such Servicer
pursuant to Section 5.04 or the applicable Servicing Agreement; provided,
however,
that the
Master Servicer’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause is
limited to amounts received on or in respect of particular Mortgage Loans
(including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds and amounts representing
Insurance Proceeds with respect to the property subject to the related Mortgage)
which represent late recoveries (net of the applicable Servicing Fee and the
Master Servicing Fee) of payments of principal or interest respecting which
any
such Advance was made; provided,
further,
that
following the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer may
reimburse itself for previously unreimbursed Advances in excess of Liquidation
Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loans from any
funds in the Collection Account, it being understood, in the case of any such
reimbursement, that the Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be
prior to the rights of the Certificateholders;
(ii) to
reimburse itself or any Servicer for any Servicing Advances made by it or by
such Servicer that it or such Servicer determines in good faith will not be
recoverable from amounts representing late recoveries of payments of principal
or interest respecting the particular Mortgage Loan as to which such Servicing
Advance was made or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds with respect
to such Mortgage Loan, it being understood, in the case of any such
reimbursement, that such Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be
prior to the rights of the Certificateholders;
84
(iii) to
reimburse itself or any Servicer from Liquidation Proceeds for Liquidation
Expenses and for amounts expended by it pursuant to Sections 9.20 and 9.22(a)
or
the applicable Servicing Agreement in good faith in connection with the
restoration of damaged property and, to the extent that Liquidation Proceeds
after such reimbursement exceed the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
applicable Mortgage Rate less the applicable Servicing Fee and the Master
Servicing Fee for such Mortgage Loan to the Due Date next succeeding the date
of
its receipt of such Liquidation Proceeds, to pay to itself out of such excess
the amount of any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges or other
Mortgagor charges on the related Mortgage Loan and to retain any excess
remaining thereafter as additional servicing compensation, it being understood,
in the case of any such reimbursement or payment, that such Master Servicer’s or
Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the
Certificateholders;
(iv) to
reimburse itself or any Servicer for expenses incurred by and recoverable by
or
reimbursable to it or such Servicer pursuant to Section 9.04, 9.05, 9.06, 9.16
or 9.22(a) or pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement, and to reimburse
itself for any expenses reimbursable to it pursuant to Section
10.01(c);
(v) to
pay to
the applicable Person, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or REO Property
acquired in respect thereof that has been repurchased by such Person pursuant
to
this Agreement, all amounts received thereon and not distributed on the date
on
which the related repurchase was effected, and to pay to the applicable Person
any Advances and Servicing Advances to the extent specified in the definition
of
Purchase Price, any FPD Premium, or any amounts paid by LBH for shortfalls
in
the Purchase Price for repurchases of First Payment Default Mortgage Loans
pursuant to Section 1.04(f) of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement relating to
the
Seller paying the difference if the FPD Purchase Price is less than the Purchase
Price;
(vi) to
pay to
itself income earned on the investment of funds deposited in the Collection
Account;
(vii) to
make
payments to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account in the amounts
and in the manner provided for in Section 4.01(c);
(viii) to
make
distributions of any Retained Interest to the Retained Interest Holder on each
Distribution Date (other than any Retained Interest not deposited into the
Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.01(d)(iii));
(ix) to
make
payment to itself, the Trustee and others pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement;
(x) to
withdraw funds deposited in error in the Collection Account;
(xi) to
clear
and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 7.02;
85
(xii) to
reimburse the Trustee and a successor Master Servicer (solely in its capacity
as
successor Master Servicer), for any fee or advance occasioned by a termination
of the Master Servicer, and the assumption of such duties by the Trustee or
a
successor Master Servicer appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14,
in
each case to the extent not reimbursed by the terminated Master Servicer, it
being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or payment, that the
right of the successor Master Servicer or the Trustee thereto shall be prior
to
the rights of the Certificateholders;
(xiii) to
reimburse any Servicer for such amounts as are due thereto under the applicable
Servicing Agreement and have not been retained by or paid to such Servicer
to
the extent provided in such Servicing Agreement; and
(xiv) to
the
extent of any previous Advances made by the Master Servicer with respect to
Simple Interest Mortgage Loans, to pay itself (or the applicable Servicer)
an
amount equal to Net Simple Interest Excess for the related Collection Period
to
the extent not offset by Net Simple Interest Shortfalls.
In
the
event that the Master Servicer fails on any Master Servicer Remittance Date
to
remit to the Trustee any amounts required to be so remitted to the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (vii) on such date, the Master Servicer shall pay the
Trustee, for the account of the Trustee, interest calculated at the “prime rate”
(as published in the “Money Rates” section of The
Wall Street Journal)
on such
amounts not timely remitted for the period from and including that Master
Servicer Remittance Date through the date such funds are remitted to and
received by the Trustee.
In
connection with withdrawals pursuant to subclauses (i), (iii), (iv), (vi) and
(xiv) above, the Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s entitlement thereto is limited
to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, except as
provided herein. The Master Servicer shall therefore keep and maintain a
separate accounting for each Mortgage Loan it master services for the purpose
of
justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account it maintains pursuant
to
subclauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) above.

The

Mortgage Loan data provided to the Trustee by the Master Servicer (in a format
attached hereto as Exhibit V or in such other format mutually agreed to by
the
Trustee and the Master Servicer) no later than 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time four
Business Days prior to the Distribution Date

recompute, reconcile or recalculate any such information or data. In preparing

(b) Upon
the
reasonable advance written request of any Certificateholder that is a savings
and loan, bank or insurance company, which request, if received by the Trustee,
will be promptly forwarded to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall
provide, or cause to be provided, (or, to the extent that such information
or
documentation is not required to be provided by a Servicer under the applicable
Servicing Agreement, shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such information
and
documentation from such Servicer, and provide) to such Certificateholder such
reports and access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage
Loans
as such Certificateholder may reasonably deem necessary to comply with
applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or its successor
or
other regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates;
provided,
however,
that
the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by such Certificateholder

to prepare their federal income tax returns. Such information shall include
the
amount of original issue discount accrued on each Class of Certificates and
information regarding the expenses of the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall be
deemed to have satisfied this requirement if it forwards such information in
any
other format permitted by the Code. The Master Servicer shall provide the

pursuant to this Agreement and each Servicing Agreement) as is necessary for
the
Trustee to prepare such reports (and the Trustee may rely solely upon such
information).
(d) The

(a) The

(the “Certificate Account”), entitled “Certificate Account, Xxxxx Fargo Bank,
N.A., as Trustee, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of Xxxxxx Mortgage
Trust Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-5” until disbursed
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Certificate Account shall be an
Eligible Account. If the existing Certificate Account ceases to be an Eligible
Account, the Trustee shall establish a new Certificate Account that is an

shall
not be commingled with any other monies including, without limitation, other
monies of the Trustee held under this Agreement.
(b) The

on
which, or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately
following the day on which, any monies are remitted by the Master Servicer
to
the Trustee, all such amounts.
(c) The
Trustee shall make withdrawals from the Certificate Account only for the
following purposes:
(i) to
withdraw amounts deposited in the Certificate Account in error;
(ii) to
pay
itself any investment income earned with respect to funds in the Certificate
Account invested in Eligible Investments as set forth in subsection (d) below,

(v) to
clear
and terminate the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 7.02.
91
(d) The
Trustee may invest, or cause to be invested, funds held in the Certificate
Account, which funds, if invested, shall be invested in Eligible Investments
(which may be obligations of the Trustee or its affiliates described in
paragraph (viii) of the definition thereof). All such investments must be
payable on demand or mature no later than the next Distribution Date, and shall
not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. All such Eligible
Investments will be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such)
or
its nominee. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be
compensation for the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal on order
from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such
investments shall be paid by the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account
out of its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor, immediately
as realized. Funds held in the Certificate Account that are not invested shall
be held uninvested.

TO HOLDERS OF CERTIFICATES
Section
5.01. Distributions Generally.
(a) Subject
to Section 7.01 respecting (a) the final distribution on the Certificates and
(b) distributions on the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests,
on
each Distribution Date the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall make distributions
in accordance with this Article V. Such distributions shall be made by wire
transfer if the Certificateholder has provided the Trustee with wire
instructions or by check mailed to the address of such Certificateholder as
it
appears in the books of the Trustee if the Certificateholder has not provided
the Trustee with wire instructions in immediately available funds to an account
specified in the request and at the expense of such Certificateholder;
provided,
however,
that the
final distribution in respect of any Certificate shall be made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the applicable Corporate
Trust
Office; provided,
further,
that the
foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Class of Certificates as long as
such Certificate remains a Book-Entry Certificate in which case all payments
made shall be made through the Clearing Agency and its Clearing Agency
Participants. Notwithstanding such final distribution of principal of any of
the
Certificates, each Residual Certificate will remain outstanding until the
termination of each related REMIC and the payment in full of all other amounts
due with respect to such Residual Certificate and at such time such final
payment in retirement of any such Residual Certificate will be made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office
of
the Trustee. If any payment required to be made on the Certificates or the
Lower
Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests is to be made on a day that is
not
a Business Day, then such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business
Day.
(b) All
distributions or allocations made with respect to Certificateholders within
each
Class on each Distribution Date shall be allocated among the outstanding
Certificates in such Class equally in proportion to their respective initial
Certificate Principal Amounts (or initial Notional Amounts).

of
Group 1 Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(v), in reverse
order of priority, in respect of such Class’s Subordinate Class Percentage of
the related Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount for the Collateral Group
relating to such retired Certificates, shall be distributed as principal to
such
Non-AP Senior Certificates remaining outstanding pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iii) until the Class Principal Amounts thereof have been reduced to
zero, provided
that on
such Distribution Date (a) the Aggregate Subordinate Percentage for Collateral
Groups PO1, 1 and 2 for such Distribution Date is less than 200% of such
Aggregate Subordinate Percentage for the Group 1 Subordinate Certificates,
as of
the Cut-off Date or (b) the average outstanding principal balance of the

60
days or more for the last six months (including for this purpose any REO
Property or Mortgage Loans in foreclosure or bankruptcy and the Scheduled
Payments that would have been due on Mortgage Loans with respect to which the
related Mortgaged Property has been acquired by the Trust Fund if the related
Mortgage Loan had remained in existence) as a percentage of the related Group
Subordinate Amount is greater than or equal to 50%.
(g) On
each
Distribution Date prior to the related Credit Support Depletion Date but after
the date on which the total Certificate Principal Amount of the Non-AP Senior
Certificate or Certificates relating to Collateral Groups 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8
have
been reduced to zero, amounts otherwise distributable as principal on each
Class
of Group 2 Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(vi), in reverse
order of priority, in respect of such Class’s Subordinate Class Percentage of
the related Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount for the Collateral Group
relating to such retired Certificates, shall be distributed as principal to
such
Non-AP Senior Certificates remaining outstanding pursuant to Section

60 days or more for the last six months (including for this purpose any REO
Property or Mortgage Loans in foreclosure or bankruptcy and the Scheduled
Payments that would have been due on Mortgage Loans with respect to which the

Subordinate Amount is greater than or equal to 50%.
(i) On
each
Distribution Date on which the Class Principal Amounts of the Non-AP Senior
Certificates relating to one or more Collateral Groups have been reduced to
zero, any amounts distributable pursuant to Sections 5.02(f), (g) or (h) will
be
allocated, as to each applicable Class of Subordinate Certificates, in
proportion to such Class’s Subordinate Class Percentage of the Subordinate
Principal Distribution Amount for the Collateral Group relating to each such
retired Senior Certificate. On each Distribution Date on which the Non-AP Senior
Certificates for one or more Collateral Groups remain outstanding, any amounts
distributable pursuant to Sections 5.02(f), (g) or (h) will be distributed
in
proportion to the aggregate Certificate Principal Amount of such Certificates
relating to each such Collateral Group.

any Distribution Date on which any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups PO1, 1 or 2 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes, all amounts otherwise distributable as principal on the Group
1 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority (other than amounts
necessary to pay any AP Deferred Amounts or unpaid Interest Shortfalls) (or,
following the applicable Credit Support Depletion Date, such other amounts
described in the immediately following sentence), will be distributed as
principal to such Undercollateralized Class or Classes pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iii), until the total Certificate Principal Amount of the
Undercollateralized Class or Classes equals the Non-AP Pool Balance of the
related Collateral Group, (such distribution, an “Undercollateralization
Distribution”). In the event that any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups PO1, 1 or 2 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes on any Distribution Date following the related Credit Support
Depletion Date, related Undercollateralization Distributions will be made from
any Available Distribution Amount for such Collateral Groups not related to
an
Undercollateralized Class or Classes remaining after all required amounts have
been distributed to the Non-AP Senior Certificates related to such other
Collateral Groups. In addition, the amount of any unpaid Interest Shortfalls
with respect to an Undercollateralized Class on any Distribution Date (including
any Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution Date) will be distributed to
such
Undercollateralized Class or Classes prior to the payment of any related
Undercollateralization Distributions from amounts otherwise distributable as
principal on the Group 1 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority
(or, following the related Credit Support Depletion Date, as provided in the
preceding sentence).
102
(k) (B) On
any Distribution Date on which any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups 3, 4, 5, 7 or 8 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes, all amounts otherwise distributable as principal on the Group
2 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority (other than amounts
necessary to pay any AP Deferred Amounts or unpaid Interest Shortfalls) (or,
following the applicable Credit Support Depletion Date, such other amounts
described in the immediately following sentence), will be distributed as
principal to such Undercollateralized Class or Classes pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iii), until the total Certificate Principal Amount of the
Undercollateralized Class or Classes equals the Non-AP Pool Balance of the

Distribution”). In the event that any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups 3, 4, 5, 7 or 8 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes on any Distribution Date following the related Credit Support
Depletion Date, related Undercollateralization Distributions will be made from
any Available Distribution Amount for such Collateral Groups not related to
an
Undercollateralized Class or Classes remaining after all required amounts have
been distributed to the Non-AP Senior Certificates related to such other
Collateral Groups. In addition, the amount of any unpaid Interest Shortfalls
with respect to an Undercollateralized Class on any Distribution Date (including
any Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution Date) will be distributed to
such
Undercollateralized Class or Classes prior to the payment of any related
Undercollateralization Distributions from amounts otherwise distributable as
principal on the Group 2 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority
(or, following the related Credit Support Depletion Date, as provided in the
preceding sentence).
(l) (B) On
any Distribution Date on which any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups 9, 10, 11 or 12 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes, all amounts otherwise distributable as principal on the Group
3 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority (other than amounts
necessary to pay any AP Deferred Amounts or unpaid Interest Shortfalls) (or,
following the applicable Credit Support Depletion Date, such other amounts
described in the immediately following sentence), will be distributed as
principal to such Undercollateralized Class or Classes pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iii), until the total Certificate Principal Amount of the
Undercollateralized Class or Classes equals the Non-AP Pool Balance of the
related Collateral Group, (such distribution, also an “Undercollateralization
Distribution”). In the event that any Non-AP Senior Certificate or Certificates
relating to Collateral Groups 9, 10, 11 or 12 constitute an Undercollateralized
Class or Classes on any Distribution Date following the related Credit Support
Depletion Date, related Undercollateralization Distributions will be made from
any Available Distribution Amount for such Collateral Groups not related to
an
Undercollateralized Class or Classes remaining after all required amounts have
been distributed to the Non-AP Senior Certificates related to such other
Collateral Groups. In addition, the amount of any unpaid Interest Shortfalls
with respect to an Undercollateralized Class on any Distribution Date (including
any Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution Date) will be distributed to
such
Undercollateralized Class or Classes prior to the payment of any related
Undercollateralization Distributions from amounts otherwise distributable as
principal on the Group 3 Subordinate Certificates, in reverse order of priority
(or, following the related Credit Support Depletion Date, as provided in the
preceding sentence).
103
(B) If
on any Distribution Date the Non-AP Senior Certificates relating to more than
one Collateral Group are Undercollateralized Classes, the distribution described
in paragraph (A), (B) or (C) above will be made in proportion to the amount
by
which the total Certificate Principal Amount of the Non-AP Senior Certificate
or
Certificates relating to each such Collateral Group, after giving effect to
distributions pursuant to Section 5.02(a) on such Distribution Date, exceeds
the
Non-AP Pool Balance for the related Collateral Group for such Distribution
Date.
(m) On
each
Distribution Date occurring after a Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event but on or
prior to a Trust Fund Termination Event, the Trustee (or the Paying Agent on
behalf of the Trustee), shall withdraw from the Certificate Account the
Available Distribution Amount (to the extent such amount is on deposit in the
Certificate Account), and shall allocate such amount to the interests issued
in
respect of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests created
pursuant to this Agreement and shall distribute such amount first, to the
Trustee, any amounts reimbursable pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(i) and not
previously reimbursed to the Trustee, second, to the LTURI-holder, any remaining
Available Distribution Amount to the extent payable on the Lower Tier REMIC
1
Uncertificated Regular Interests as provided in the Preliminary Statement,
and
third, to the Class LT-R Certificates.
(n) On
each
Distribution Date prior to the Accretion Termination Date for the Class 3-A5
Certificates, the Accrual Amount allocable to the Class 3-A5 Certificates for
such date will be distributed first to the Class 3-A1 Certificates, until the
Class Principal Amount thereof has been reduced to zero, then to the Class
3-A5
Certificates. On each such date, the Accrual Amount for the Class 3-A5
Certificates for such date will be added to the Class Principal Amount thereof.
On each Distribution Date on or after the Accretion Termination Date for the
Class 3-A5 Certificates, Accrued Certificate Interest will no longer be added
to
the Class Principal Amount thereof but will instead be distributed as interest
thereon such date.
(o) On
each
Distribution Date, all FPD Premiums to which the Trust Fund is entitled received
with respect to a First Payment Default Mortgage Loan, shall be distributed
to
the Class 2-A2, Class 8-A2 and Class 12-A2 Certificates. Any FPD Premium
received on a Mortgage Loan in Pool 1 will be allocated to the Class 2-A2
Certificates, any FPD Premium received on each Mortgage Loan in Pool 2 will
be
allocated to the Class 8-A2 Certificates and any FPD Premium received on a
Mortgage Loan in Pools 3A and 3B will be allocated to the Class 12-A2
certificates.
104
(p) For
federal income tax purposes, the Trustee shall treat the beneficial owners
of
the Class 2-A2, Class 8-A2 and Class 12-A2 Certificates (each an “FPD
Certificate”) as having entered into a cash-settled option contract. Pursuant to
each cash-settled option contract, each FPD Certificate has the right to receive
amounts in respect of FPD Premiums. Any payments to an FPD Certificate in light
of the foregoing shall not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a
REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). Notwithstanding the
priority and sources of payments set forth in Article V or otherwise, the
Trustee shall account for all distributions in respect of FPD Premiums on an
FPD
Certificate as set forth in this section. For purposes of providing tax
information reporting with respect to the FPD Certificates, the Trustee shall
treat each cash-settled option contract described in this paragraph as having
a
value of $10,000 as of the Closing Date.
(q) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the Class P Distributable Amount
for such date to the Holder of the Class P Certificates.
(r) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute any Soft Prepayment Penalties
collected by the Servicers and remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee
in
respect of the Mortgage Loans in the Collateral Groups (other than Collateral
Group 11) on the preceding Master Servicer Remittance Date to the Holders of
the
Class 12-A6 Certificates and any Hard Prepayment Penalties collected by the
Servicers and remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in respect of
the
Mortgage Loans in the Collateral Groups (other than Collateral Group 11) on
the
preceding Master Servicer Remittance Date to the Holders of the Class 12-A7
Certificates (in each case in respect of the Class P Component thereof),
regardless of whether the Class Notional Amount of the respective Class I
Components thereof has been reduced to zero.

Principal Amount of the Class AP2 and Class AP3 Certificates, respectively,
until the Certificate Principal Amount thereof has been reduced to zero; and
(ii) the related Applicable Fraction of the principal portion of each Realized
Loss (other than any Excess Loss) in respect of a Mortgage Loan, shall be
allocated in the following order of priority:
(A) Such
losses experienced by Pool 1 shall be allocated in the following order of

second,
to the
Class 1B5 Certificates, in reduction of their Class Principal Amount, until
the
Class Principal Amount thereof has been reduced to zero;
third,
to the
Class 1B4 Certificates, in reduction of their Class Principal Amount, until

107
In
addition, any Realized Loss (including any Excess Loss) allocated to an Exchange
Class shall be proportionately allocated to the related Exchangeable Class
or
Classes.
(b) With
respect to any Distribution Date, the related Applicable Fraction of the
principal portion of any Excess Loss in respect of a Mortgage Loan in any
Collateral Group shall be allocated, pro
rata,
to the
related Subordinate Certificates and related Non-AP Senior Certificate or
Certificates on the basis of the Apportioned Principal Balances of the Classes
of Subordinate Certificates and Class Principal Amounts of the related Non-AP
Senior Certificates (and in the same manner as specified in clause eighth
of
subsection (A) seventh
of
subsection (B) above or seventh
of
subsection (C) above) as applicable.
(c) Any
Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(a)
shall be allocated among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to their
respective Certificate Principal Amounts. Any allocation of Realized Losses
pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be accomplished by reducing the Certificate
Principal Amounts of the related Certificates on the related Distribution Date
in accordance with Section 5.03(d). Realized Losses allocated to any Accrual
Certificates will be allocated on the basis of the lesser of their original
Class Principal Amount and their current Class Principal Amount.
(d) Realized
Losses allocated in accordance with this Section 5.03 shall be allocated on
the
Distribution Date in the month following the month in which such loss was
incurred and, in the case of the principal portion thereof, after giving effect
to distributions made on such Distribution Date, except that the aggregate
amount of Realized Losses to be allocated to the Class AP Certificates on such
Distribution Date will be taken into account in determining distributions in
respect of any related AP Deferred Amount for such date.
(e) On
each
Distribution Date, the Subordinate Certificate Writedown Amount for such date
shall effect a corresponding reduction in the Class Principal Amount of the
lowest ranking Class of outstanding related Subordinate Certificates, which
reduction shall occur on such Distribution Date after giving effect to
distributions made on such Distribution Date.
Section
5.04. Advances by the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
(a) Advances
shall be made in respect of each Master Servicer Remittance Date as provided
herein. If, on any Determination Date, the Master Servicer determines that
any
Scheduled Payments (or in the case of Simple Interest Mortgage Loans, the
amount
of any scheduled interest payments) due during the related Due Period (other
than Balloon Payments) have not been received, the Master Servicer shall,
or
cause the applicable Servicer to, advance such amount on the Master Servicer
Remittance Date immediately following such Determination Date, less an amount,
if any, to be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate to be delivered to the
Trustee on such Determination Date, which if advanced the Master Servicer
or the
applicable Servicer has determined would not be recoverable from amounts
received with respect to such Mortgage Loan, including late payments,
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or otherwise. If the Master Servicer
determines that an Advance is required, it shall on the Master Servicer
Remittance Date immediately following such Determination Date either (i)
remit
to the Trustee from its own funds (or funds advanced by the applicable Servicer)
for deposit in the Certificate Account immediately available funds in an
amount
equal to such Advance, (ii) cause to be made an appropriate entry in the
records
of the Collection Account that funds in such account being held for future
distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section 5.04,
used by
the Master Servicer to make such Advance, and remit such immediately available
funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account or (iii) make
Advances in the form of any combination of clauses (i) and (ii) aggregating
the
amount of such Advance. Any funds being held in the Collection Account for
future distribution to Certificateholders and so used shall be replaced by
the
Master Servicer from its own funds by remittance to the Trustee for deposit
in
the Certificate Account on or before any future Master Servicer Remittance
Date
to the extent that funds in the Certificate Account on such Master Servicer
Remittance Date shall be less than payments to Certificateholders required
to be
made on the related Distribution Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, in the event the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment
that an Advance is non-recoverable, the Master Servicer shall be under no
obligation to make such Advance. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively
rely upon any determination by the Master Servicer that an Advance, if made,
would constitute a non-recoverable advance. The Master Servicer and each
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Collection Account for
all
Advances made by it as provided in Section 4.02.
108
(b) In
the
event that the Master Servicer fails for any reason to make an Advance required
to be made pursuant to this Section 5.04, the Trustee, solely in its capacity
as
successor Master Servicer pursuant to Section 6.14, shall, on or before the
related Distribution Date, deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal
to
the excess of (a) Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer that
would
have been deposited in such Certificate Account over (b) the amount of any
Advance made by the Master Servicer and Servicers with respect to such
Distribution Date; provided,
however,
that
the Trustee shall be required to make such Advance only if it is not prohibited
by law from doing so and it has determined that such Advance would be
recoverable from amounts to be received with respect to such Mortgage Loan,
including late payments, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or otherwise.
The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Certificate Account
for
Advances made by it pursuant to this Section 5.04 as if it were the Master
Servicer.
Section
5.05. Compensating Interest Payments.
The
Master Servicer shall not be responsible for making any Compensating Interest
Payments not made by the Servicers. Any Compensating Interest Payments made
by
the Servicers shall be a component of the Available Distribution
Amount.
109
Section
5.06. Distributions from the Supplemental Prepayment Trust.
A
separate trust is hereby established (the “Supplemental Prepayment Trust”), the
corpus of which shall be held by the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of
the
Class 12-A3 and Class 12-A8, Certificateholders. The assets of the Supplemental
Prepayment Trust shall consist of (i) Soft Prepayment Penalties and Hard
Prepayment Penalties in respect of the Designated Mortgage Loans received by
the
Trustee and identified as such. Such assets shall be held separate and apart
from, and shall not be commingled with, any other monies, including, without
limitation, other monies of the Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement.
Distributions from the Supplemental Prepayment Trust shall be made concurrently
as follows:
(a) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee (or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trustee),
shall withdraw from the Supplemental Prepayment Trust, any Soft Prepayment
Penalties remitted
by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in respect of the Designated Mortgage
Loans on the preceding Master Servicer Remittance Date,
and
shall distribute such amount to the Holders of the Class 12-A8
Certificates
(in
respect of the Class P Component thereof), regardless of whether the Class
Notional Amount of the Class I Component thereof has been reduced to zero.
(b) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee (or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trustee),
shall withdraw from the Supplemental Prepayment Trust, any Hard Prepayment
Penalties remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in respect of the
Designated Mortgage Loans on the preceding Master Servicer Remittance Date,
and
shall distribute such amount to the Holders of the Class 12-A3 Certificates
(in
respect of the Class P Component thereof), regardless of whether the Class
Notional Amount of the Class I Component thereof has been reduced to
zero.
The
Trustee (or the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trustee) shall make the
distributions pursuant to this Section 5.06 in respect of the Class P Components
of the Class 12-A3 and Class 12-A8 Certificates until the earlier to occur
of
(1) the termination of the trust fund to which the Designated Mortgage Loans
were conveyed or (2) the final scheduled maturity date relating to such trust
fund, which is the distribution date in June 2037.
It
is the
intent of the parties hereto that the segregated pool of assets consisting
of
any collections in respect of the amounts payable to the Class P Components
(other than in the case of the Class 12-A3 and Class 12-A8 Certificates)
constitutes, for federal income tax purposes, a grantor trust as described
in
Subpart E of Part I of Subchapter J of the Code and Treasury Regulation
§301.7701-4(c)(2) and a widely held mortgage trust within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation 1.671-5(b)(23).
Section
5.07. Supplemental Interest Trust.
The
Trustee is hereby directed by the Depositor to accept the Cap Agreements on
behalf of a trust, separate from the Trust Fund, for the benefit of the Class
1-A1, Class 1-A9, Class 3-A1 and Class X Certificateholders in the form
presented to it by the Depositor and shall have no responsibility for the
contents, adequacy or sufficiency of the Cap Agreements, including without
limitation, the representations and warranties contained therein.
110
Section
5.08. The Reserve Funds.
(a) On
the
Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in the name of the
Trustee, in the Supplemental Interest Trust for the benefit of the holders
of
the Class 1-A1 and Class X Certificates, the Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, for the
benefit of the holders of the Class 1-A9 and Class X Certificates, the Class
1-A9 Reserve Fund, and for the benefit of the holders of the Class 3-A1 and
Class X Certificates, the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund, into which the Depositor
shall deposit $1,000 each. The Trustee shall hold the Class 1-A1 Cap Agreement,
Class 1-A9 Cap Agreement and the Class 3-A1 Cap Agreement as an asset in the
Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and the Class 3-A1 Reserve
Fund, respectively. The Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and
the
Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund shall each be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit
therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled
with,
any other moneys, including without limitation other moneys of the Trustee
held
pursuant to this Agreement. The Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve
Fund
and the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund shall not be an asset of any REMIC or the Trust
Fund established hereby. The Trustee shall deposit promptly upon receipt in
the
Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and the Class 3-A1 Reserve
Fund
any amounts received from the Class 1-A1 Cap Agreement, Class 1-A9 Cap Agreement
and the Class 3-A1 Cap Agreement, respectively.
(b) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust,
shall distribute amounts on deposit in the Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, first,
to the
Holders of the Class 1-A1 Certificates, in an amount up to any Basis Risk
Shortfalls thereon and second,
to the
Holders of the Class 1-A1 Certificates, in an amount up to any Unpaid Basis
Risk
Shortfalls thereon. Any remaining amounts shall be retained in the Class 1-A1
Reserve Fund for distribution on future Distribution Dates.
(c) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust,
shall distribute amounts on deposit in the Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund, first,
to the
Holders of the Class 1-A9 Certificates, in an amount up to any Basis Risk
Shortfalls thereon and second,
to the
Holders of the Class 1-A9 Certificates, in an amount up to any Unpaid Basis
Risk
Shortfalls thereon. Any remaining amounts shall be retained in the Class 1-A9
Reserve Fund for distribution on future Distribution Dates.
(d) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust,
shall distribute amounts on deposit in the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund, first,
to the
Holders of the Class 3-A1 Certificates, in an amount up to any Basis Risk
Shortfalls thereon and second,
to the
Holders of the Class 3-A1 Certificates, in an amount up to any Unpaid Basis
Risk
Shortfalls thereon. Any remaining amounts shall be retained in the Class 3-A1
Reserve Fund for distribution on future Distribution Dates.
(e) Upon
the
earliest to occur of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Class Principal
Amount of the Class 1-A1 Certificates is reduced to zero, (ii) a Section 7.01(c)
Purchase Event or (iii) a Trust Fund Termination Event, any amounts remaining
in
the Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund and any future amounts payable under the Class
1-A1
Cap Agreement shall be distributed to the Class X
Certificateholder.
111
(f) Upon
the
earliest to occur of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Class Principal
Amount of the Class 1-A9 Certificates is reduced to zero, (ii) a Section 7.01(c)
Purchase Event or (iii) a Trust Fund Termination Event, any amounts remaining
in
the Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and any future amounts payable under the Class
1-A9
Cap Agreement shall be distributed to the Class X
Certificateholder.
(g) Upon
the
earliest to occur of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Class Principal
Amount of the Class 3-A1 Certificates is reduced to zero, (ii) a Section 7.01(c)
Purchase Event or (iii) a Trust Fund Termination Event, any amounts remaining
in
the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund and any future amounts payable under the Class
3-A1
Cap Agreement shall be distributed to the Class X
Certificateholder.
(h) Funds
in
the Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and the Class 3-A1 Reserve
Fund shall be invested in Eligible Investments. The Class X Certificates shall
evidence ownership of the Class 1-A1 Reserve Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund
and
the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund for federal income tax purposes and LBH on behalf
of
the Holders thereof shall direct the Trustee, in writing, as to investment
of
amounts on deposit therein. LBH shall be liable for any losses incurred on
such
investments. In the absence of written instructions from LBH as to investment
of
funds on deposit in the Class 1-A1 Reserve
Fund, Class 1-A9 Reserve Fund and the Class 3-A1 Reserve Fund, such funds shall
remain uninvested.
The
Trustee shall account for the Supplemental Interest Trust as a disregarded
entity as long as there is a single holder of the Class X Certificates and,
in
no event, as an asset of any REMIC created pursuant to this
Agreement.
(i) For
federal income tax purposes, the Trustee shall treat the holders of the Class
1-A1 Certificates, Class 1-A9 Certificates and the Class 3-A1 Certificates
as
having entered into a notional principal contract with the holders of the Class
X Certificates. Pursuant to such notional principal contract, all holders of
the
Class X Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay Basis Risk
Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls to the holders of the Class 1-A1
Certificates, Class 1-A9 Certificates and the Class 3-A1 Certificates. Any
payments to the Class 1-A1 Certificates, Class 1-A9 Certificates and the Class
3-A1 Certificates in light of the foregoing shall not be payments with respect
to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860G(a)(1). Notwithstanding the priority and sources of payments set forth
in
Article V hereof or otherwise, the Trustee shall account for all distributions
on the Class 1-A1 Certificates, Class 1-A9 Certificates and the Class 3-A1
Certificates as set forth in this section. For purposes of providing tax
information reporting with respect to the Class 1-A1 Certificates, Class 1-A9
Certificates and the Class 3-A1 Certificates, the Trustee shall treat the
notional principal contract described in this paragraph as having a value equal
to the Notional Principal Contract Value as of the Closing Date.

ARTICLE
VI
CONCERNING
THE TRUSTEE; EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Section
6.01. Duties of Trustee.
(a) The
Trustee, except during the continuance of an Event of Default, undertakes to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. Any permissive right of the Trustee provided for in this Agreement
shall not be construed as a duty of the Trustee. If an Event of Default has
occurred and has not otherwise been cured or waived, 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 its exercise as a prudent Person would exercise
or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs, unless
the Trustee is acting as Master Servicer, in which case it shall use the same
degree of care and skill as the Master Servicer hereunder.
(b) The
Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which
are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are on their face in
the
form required by this Agreement; provided,
however,
that the
Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such
resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other
instrument furnished by the Master Servicer or any Servicer to the Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement, and shall not be required to recalculate or verify
any numerical information furnished to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, if any such resolution,
certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument
is
found not to conform on its face to the form required by this Agreement in
a
material manner the Trustee shall notify the Person providing such resolutions,
certificates, statements, opinions, reports or other documents of the
non-conformity, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s
satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders
and will, at the expense of the Trust Fund, which expense shall be reasonable
given the scope and nature of the required action, take such further action
as
directed by the Certificateholders.
(c) The
Trustee shall not have any liability arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement, except for its negligence or willful misconduct. No provision of
this
Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its
own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct; provided,
however,
that:
(i) The
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
the
Holders as provided in Section 6.18 hereof;
(ii) For
all
purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice
of
any Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual

a
default is received by the Trustee at the address provided in Section 11.07,
and
such notice references the Holders of the Certificates and this
Agreement;
113
(iii) For
all
purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice
of
any Event of Default (other than resulting from a failure by the Master Servicer
to (i) remit funds (or make Advances) when required to do so or (ii) furnish
information to the Trustee when required to do so) unless a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any
event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at its
Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Holders of the
Certificates and this Agreement;
(iv) No
provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its
own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any
of
its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if
it
shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to
it; and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event
require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance
of, any of the obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement;
(v) The
Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission of the Master Servicer,
any Servicer, the Depositor, the Seller, the Cap Counterparty or the
Custodian.

Trustee shall have no duty hereunder with respect to any complaint, claim,
demand, notice or other document it may receive or which may be alleged to
have
been delivered to or served upon it by the parties as a consequence of the
assignment of any Mortgage Loan hereunder; provided,
however,
that the
Trustee shall promptly remit to the Master Servicer upon receipt any such
complaint, claim, demand, notice or other document (i) which is delivered to
the
address of the Trustee provided in Section 11.07 and makes reference to this
series of Certificate or this Agreement, (ii) of which a Responsible Officer
has
actual knowledge, and (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit
the
Trustee to make a determination that the real property to which such document
relates is a Mortgaged Property.
(e) The
Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of any the Certificateholders of any Class holding Certificates which
evidence, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than
25%
as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
Trustee under this Agreement.
(f) The
Trustee shall not be required to perform services under this Agreement, or
to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability for the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or the exercise of any of its rights
or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that the timely payment
of
its fees and expenses or the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of
the
provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee
to
perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the
obligations of the Master Servicer or any Servicer under this Agreement or
any
Servicing 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.

defaulted thereon).

Trustee, except as otherwise provided herein, shall not have any duty (A) to
see
to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Agreement or any agreement
referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement

Certificate Account. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall
not

certificates of the Master Servicer or any Servicer, delivered to the Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
(i) The
Trustee shall not be liable in its individual capacity for an error of judgment
made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or other officers of the Trustee

pertinent facts.
(j) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor any Paying
Agent shall be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages
of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), even
if
the Trustee or such Paying Agent, as applicable, has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action.
(k) For
so
long as the Depositor is subject to the Exchange Act reporting with respect
to
the Certificates, the Trustee shall give prior written notice to the Sponsor,
the Master Servicer and the Depositor of the appointment of any Subcontractor
by
it and a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Sponsor
and the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized
by

which
elements of the servicing criteria set forth under Item 1122(d) of Regulation

trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any

its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the

be
vested in the Trustee; provided,
however,
the
parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence there may be
a
transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of
the
Master Servicing obligations to the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby authorized
and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the defaulting Master
Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other
instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents or otherwise. The defaulting Master Servicer agrees to
cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the defaulting Master
Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as Master Servicer including,
without limitation, notifying Servicers of the assignment of the master
servicing function and providing the Trustee or its designee all documents
and
records in electronic or other form reasonably requested by it to enable the
Trustee or its designee to assume the defaulting Master Servicer’s functions
hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee (or its designee) for administration
by it of all amounts which shall at the time be or should have been deposited
by
the defaulting Master Servicer and any other account or fund maintained with
respect to the Certificates or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. The Master Servicer being terminated (or the Trust Fund, if the Master
Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) as a result of an
Event
of Default shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses of a master servicing
transfer, including but not limited to those of the Trustee reasonably allocable
to specific employees and overhead, legal fees and expenses, accounting and
financial consulting fees and expenses, and costs of amending the Agreement,
if
necessary.
126
The
Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Master Servicer (or by
the
Trust Fund, if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations
hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of master servicing from
the predecessor Master Servicer, including, without limitation, any costs or
expenses associated with the complete transfer of all master servicing data
and
the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be
required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the master
servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to master service the Mortgage
Loans properly and effectively. If the terminated Master Servicer does not
pay
such reimbursement within thirty (30) days of its receipt of an invoice
therefore, such reimbursement shall be an expense of the Trust and the Trustee
shall be entitled to withdraw such reimbursement from amounts on deposit in
the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.04; provided
that the
terminated Master Servicer shall reimburse the Trust for any such expense
incurred by the Trust; and provided,
further,
that
the Trustee shall decide whether and to what extent it is in the best interest
of the Certificateholders to pursue any remedy against any party obligated
to
make such reimbursement.
Notwithstanding
the termination of its activities as Master Servicer, each terminated Master
Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement to the extent provided
in Section 4.02 to the extent such reimbursement relates to the period prior
to
such Master Servicer’s termination.
If
any
Event of Default shall occur, the Trustee, upon a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify each
Rating Agency of the nature and extent of such Event of Default. The Trustee
shall immediately give written notice to the Master Servicer upon the Master
Servicer’s failure to remit funds to the Trustee on the Master Servicer
Remittance Date.
(b) On
and
after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination from the
Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14(a) or the Trustee receives the resignation
of
the Master Servicer evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section
9.28
but in any event within a period of time not to exceed 90 days after the Master
Servicer or the Trustee receives such written notice pursuant to Section 6.14(a)
or Section 9.28, respectively, the Trustee, unless another master servicer
shall
have been appointed, shall be the successor in all respects to the Master
Servicer in its capacity as such under this Agreement and the transactions
set
forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be
subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto
and
arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer hereunder, including the
obligation to make Advances; provided,
however,
that
any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master
Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Agreement shall not
be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In addition, the Trustee
shall
have no responsibility for any act or omission of the Master Servicer prior
to
the issuance of any notice of termination and within a period of time in not
to
exceed 90 days after the Master Servicer or the Trustee receives such written
notice pursuant to Section 6.14(a) or Section 9.28, as applicable. The Trustee
shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties of the
Master Servicer set forth in Section 9.14. In the Trustee’s capacity as such
successor, the Trustee shall have the same limitations on liability herein
granted to the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be
entitled to receive all compensation payable to the Master Servicer under this
Agreement, including the Master Servicing Fee.
127
(c) Notwithstanding
the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to continue to so act,
or
shall, if it is unable to so act, petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to
appoint, or appoint on its own behalf any established housing and home finance
institution servicer, master servicer, servicing or mortgage servicing
institution having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and meeting such
other standards for a successor master servicer as are set forth in this
Agreement, as the successor to such Master Servicer in the assumption of all
of
the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder.
Any entity designated by the Trustee as a successor master servicer may be
an
Affiliate of the Trustee; provided,
however,
that,
unless such Affiliate meets the net worth requirements and other standards
set
forth herein for a successor master servicer, the Trustee, in its individual
capacity shall agree, at the time of such designation, to be and remain liable
to the Trust Fund for such Affiliate’s actions and omissions in performing its
duties hereunder. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out
of
payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however,
that no
such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the Master Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such actions, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession
and
may make other arrangements with respect to the servicing to be conducted
hereunder which are not inconsistent herewith. The Master Servicer shall
cooperate with the Trustee and any successor master servicer in effecting the
termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder
including, without limitation, notifying Mortgagors of the assignment of the
master servicing functions and providing the Trustee and successor master
servicer, as applicable, all documents and records in electronic or other form
reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s
functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee or such successor master
servicer, as applicable, all amounts which shall at the time be or should have
been deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account and any other
account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests or thereafter be received with respect
to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master
servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure
to
make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof
caused by (i) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in
delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii) the failure of the Master
Servicer to cooperate as required by this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the
Master Servicer to deliver the Mortgage Loan data to the Trustee as required
by
this Agreement or (iv) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having
jurisdiction over the Master Servicer.
Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for
any
Master Servicing Fee or Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount
of
the Master Servicing Fee or Servicing Fee paid hereunder or under the applicable
Servicing Agreement and the amount necessary to induce any successor master
servicer or successor servicer to act as successor master servicer or successor
servicer under this Agreement or the applicable Servicing Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein.
128
Section
6.15. Additional Remedies of Trustee Upon Event of Default.
During
the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of Default shall
not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in
Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by
statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and
enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders (including the
institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other
proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and
each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and
no
delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right
or
remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section
6.16. Waiver of Defaults.
More
than
50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of Certificateholders may waive any
default or Event of Default by the Master Servicer in the performance of its
obligations hereunder, except that a default in the making of any required
deposit to the Certificate Account that would result in a failure of the Trustee
to make any required payment of principal of or interest on the Certificates
may
only be waived with the consent of 100% of the affected Certificateholders.
Upon
any such waiver of a past default, such default 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 default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived.
Section
6.17. Notification to Holders.
Upon
termination of the Master Servicer or appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer, in each case as provided herein, the Trustee shall promptly mail
notice thereof by first class mail to the Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing on the Certificate Register and the Cap Counterparty. The
Trustee shall also, within 45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default
known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, give written notice thereof
to
the Certificateholders, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured
or
waived prior to the issuance of such notice and within such 45-day
period.
Section
6.18. Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of Trustee During Event of
Default.
Subject
to the provisions of Section 8.01 hereof, during the continuance of any Event
of
Default, Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Class
Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected
thereby may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for
any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; provided,
however,
that the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue any such remedy, or to exercise
any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement (including, without
limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any administrative action or
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii) the terminating of the
Master Servicer or any successor master servicer from its rights and duties
as
master servicer hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the
Certificateholders, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the
Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the cost, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; and, provided further,
that, subject to the provisions of Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have the
right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee determines that
the
action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee
in
good faith determines that the action or proceeding so directed would involve
it
in personal liability for which it is not indemnified to its satisfaction or
be
unjustly prejudicial to the non-assenting Certificateholders.
129
Section
6.19. Action Upon Certain Failures of the Master Servicer and Upon Event of
Default.
In
the
event that the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of any action or inaction
of
the Master Servicer that would become an Event of Default upon the Master
Servicer’s failure to remedy the same after notice, the Trustee shall give
notice thereof to the Master Servicer and the Cap Counterparty, as
applicable.
Section
6.20. Preparation of Tax Returns and Other Reports.
(a) Tax
Returns and Information Reporting.
(i) The
Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared on behalf of the Trust Fund,
based
upon information calculated in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to
instructions given by the Depositor, and the Trustee shall file federal tax
returns, all in accordance with Article X hereof. If the Trustee determines
that
a state tax return or other return is required, then, at its sole expense,
the
Trustee shall prepare and file such state income tax returns and such other
returns as may be required by applicable law relating to the Trust Fund, and,
if
required by state law, and shall file any other documents to the extent required
by applicable state tax law (to the extent such documents are in the Trustee’s
possession). The Trustee shall forward copies to the Depositor of all such
returns and supplemental tax information and such other information within
the
Trustee’s control as the Depositor may reasonably request in writing. The
Trustee shall furnish to each Certificateholder, such forms and such information
within the control of the Trustee as are required by the Code and the REMIC
Provisions to be furnished to them (other than any Form 1099s). The Master
Servicer will indemnify the Trustee for any liability of or assessment against
the Trustee resulting from any error in any of such tax or information returns
directly resulting from or arising out of errors in the information provided
by
such Master Servicer.
(ii) In
addition, the Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of the tax returns in
respect of the grantor trusts referred to in Section 5.06 and Section 11.15.
The
expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee
without any right of reimbursement therefor.
130
(iii) The
Trustee shall treat the Supplemental Prepayment Trust as a WHFIT that is a
WHMT.
The Trustee shall report as required under the WHFIT Regulations to the extent
such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee to do so
is
provided to the Trustee on a timely basis. For this purpose, the Trustee may
assume that DTC is the only middleman listed as the registered Holder for the
related Certificates. The Trustee shall not be liable for any tax reporting
penalties that may arise under the WHFIT Regulations as a result of the
Depositor incorrectly determining the status of the Supplemental Prepayment
Trust as a WHFIT.
The
Trustee shall report required WHFIT information using the accrual method. The
Trustee shall make available WHFIT information to holders annually. In addition,
the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for providing subsequently
amended, revised or updated information to any holder, unless requested by
the
holder.
The
Trustee shall not be liable for failure to meet the reporting requirements
of
the WHFIT Regulations nor for any penalties thereunder if such failure is due
to: (i) the lack of reasonably necessary information being provided to the
Trustee, (ii) incomplete, inaccurate or untimely information being provided
to
the Trustee or (iii) the inability of the Trustee, after good faith efforts,
to
alter its existing information reporting systems to capture information
necessary to fully comply with the WHFIT Regulations for the 2007 calendar
year.
Each owner of Certificate representing, in whole or in part, beneficial
ownership of an interest in a WHFIT, by acceptance of its interest in such
Certificate, will be deemed to have agreed to provide the Trustee with
information regarding any sale of such Certificate, including the price, amount
of proceeds and date of sale. Absent receipt of such information, and unless
informed otherwise by the Depositor, the Trustee may assume there is no
secondary market trading of WHFIT interests.
To
the
extent required by the WHFIT Regulations, the Trustee shall use reasonable
efforts to publish on an appropriate website the CUSIPs for the Certificates
that represent ownership of a WHFIT. The CUSIPs so published will represent
the
Rule 144A CUSIPs. The Trustee shall make reasonable good faith efforts to keep
the website accurate and updated to the extent CUSIPs have been received. Absent
the receipt of a CUSIP, the Trustee shall use a reasonable identifier number
in
lieu of a CUSIP. The Trustee shall not be liable for investor reporting delays
that result from the receipt of inaccurate or untimely CUSIP
information.
(b) The
Trustee shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), on
behalf of the Trust Fund and each of the REMICs specified in the Preliminary
Statement, an application for an employer identification number on IRS Form
SS-4
or by any other acceptable method. The Trustee shall also file a Form 8811
as
required. The Trustee, upon receipt from the IRS of the Notice of Taxpayer
Identification Number Assigned, shall upon request promptly forward a copy
of
such notice to the Depositor. The Trustee shall have no obligation to verify
the
information in any Form 8811 or Form SS-4 filing.
(c) The
Depositor shall prepare or cause to be prepared the initial current report
on
Form 8-K. Thereafter, the Trustee shall, in accordance with industry standards
and the rules of the Commission as in effect from time to time (the “Rules”),
prepare and file with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and
Retrieval System (“XXXXX”), the reports listed in subsections (d) through (f) of
this Section 6.20 in respect of the Trust Fund as and to the extent required
under the Exchange Act.
131
(d) Reports
Filed on Form 10-D.
(i) Within
15
days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted extensions under the
Exchange Act), the Trustee shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust Fund
any Form 10-D required by the Exchange Act, in form and substance as required
by
the Exchange Act. The Trustee shall file each Form 10-D with a copy of the
related Distribution Date Statement. Any disclosure in addition to the
Distribution Date Statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D
(“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall be determined and prepared by and at
the direction of the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph and the
Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine
or
prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
(ii) As
set
forth on Exhibit L-1 hereto, within five calendar days after the related
Distribution Date, (A) certain parties to the transaction contemplated hereby
shall be required to provide to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent
known by a responsible officer (or with respect to the Trustee, Responsible
Officer) thereof, in XXXXX-compatible form (which may be Word or Excel documents
easily convertible to XXXXX format), or in such other form as otherwise agreed
upon by the Trustee and such party, the form and substance of any Additional
Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, and include with such Additional Form
10-D
Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-4, and (B)
the
Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case
may
be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. The
Sponsor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or
incurred by the Trustee in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph.
(iii) After
preparing the Form 10-D, the Trustee shall forward electronically a copy of
the
Form 10-D to the Exchange Act Signing Party for review and approval. If the
Master Servicer is the Exchange Act Signing Party and the Form 10-D includes
Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, then the Form 10-D shall also be electronically
distributed to the Depositor for review and approval. The Trustee will make
available to the Exchange Act Signing Party the monthly statement to
certificateholders containing the information with respect to exchanges required
to be included in such report for each Distribution Date and the Exchange Act
Signing Party shall have the right to ask the Trustee reasonable questions
regarding any information reported in a certificateholder statement regarding
any exchange. The Exchange Act Signing Party shall have the right to rely on
any
such information provided to it by the Trustee. No later than two Business
Days
prior to the 15th
calendar
day after the related Distribution Date, a duly authorized representative of
the
Exchange Act Signing Party shall sign the Form 10-D and return an electronic
or
fax copy of such signed Form 10-D (with an original executed hard copy to follow
by overnight mail) to the Trustee. If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or
if
a previously filed Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Trustee will follow the
procedures set forth in subsection (g)(ii) of this Section 6.20. Promptly (but
no later than one Business Day) after the deadline for filing such report with
the Commission, the Trustee will make available on its internet website a final
executed copy of each Form 10-D prepared and filed by the Trustee. Each party
to
this Agreement acknowledges that the performance by the Trustee of its duties
under this Section 6.20(d) related to the timely preparation and filing of
Form
10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines
in the performance of their duties under this Section 6.20(d). The Trustee
shall
have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with
respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such Form 10-D,
where such failure results from the Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain or
receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed
to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from
its
own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
132
(iv) Form
10-D
requires the registrant to indicate (by checking "yes" or "no") that it “(1) has
filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to
such
filing requirements for the past 90 days.” At the date of filing of each report
on Form 10-D with respect to the Trust Fund, the Depositor shall be deemed
to
represent to the Trustee that as of such date the Depositor has filed all such
required reports during the preceding 12 months and that it has been subject
to
such filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the
Trustee in writing, no later than the fifth calendar day after the related
Distribution Date with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-D if the
answer to the questions should be “no.” The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on
such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such
report.
(e) Reports
Filed on Form 10-K.
(i) Within
90
days after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust Fund for which the Trust
Fund is subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements or such earlier date
as
may be required by the Exchange Act (the “10-K Filing Deadline”) (it being
understood that the fiscal year for the Trust Fund ends on December
31st
of each
year), commencing in March 2008, the Trustee shall prepare and file on behalf
of
the Trust Fund a Form 10-K, in form and substance as required by the Exchange
Act. To facilitate the Trustee's preparation of the From 10-K, the Depositor
shall provide to the Trustee, no later than 30 days prior to the 10-K Filing
Deadline, a template of the Form-10K in an Xxxxx-compatible format. Each such
Form 10-K shall include the following items, in each case to the extent they
have been delivered to the Trustee within the applicable time frames set forth
in this Agreement and in the related Servicing Agreements and Custodial
Agreement, (A) an annual compliance statement for each Servicer, each Additional
Servicer and the Master Servicer, as described under Section 9.26 hereof and
in
each Servicing Agreement, (B)(I) the annual reports on assessment of compliance
with servicing criteria for each Servicer, the Custodian, each Additional
Servicer, the Master Servicer, any Servicing Function Participant, the Paying
Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Trustee (each, a “Reporting
Servicer”), as described under Section 9.25(a) hereof and in each Servicing
Agreement and Custodial Agreement, and (II) if any Reporting Servicer’s report
on assessment of compliance with servicing criteria described under Section
9.25(a) hereof or in any Servicing Agreement or Custodial Agreement identifies
any material instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance
of
noncompliance, or if any Reporting Servicer’s report on assessment of compliance
with servicing criteria described under Section 9.25(a) hereof or in the any
Servicing Agreement or Custodial Agreement is not included as an exhibit to
such
Form 10-K, disclosure that such report is not included and an explanation why
such report is not included, (C)(I) the registered public accounting firm
attestation report for each Reporting Servicer, as described under Section
9.25(b) hereof and in each Servicing Agreement and Custodial Agreement and
(II)
if any registered public accounting firm attestation report described under
Section 9.25(b) hereof or in any Servicing Agreement or Custodial Agreement
identifies any material instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such
instance of noncompliance, or if any such registered public accounting firm
attestation report is not included as an exhibit to such Form 10-K, disclosure
that such report is not included and an explanation why such report is not
included, and (D) a Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification. Any disclosure or information
in addition to (A) through (D) above that is required to be included on Form
10-K (“Additional Form 10-K Disclosure”) shall be determined and prepared by and
at the direction of the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph and the
Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine
or
prepare any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
133
(ii) As
set
forth on Exhibit L-2 hereto, no later than March 15 of each year that the Trust
Fund is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in 2008,
(A) certain parties to the transaction contemplated hereby shall be required
to
provide to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible
officer (or with respect to the Trustee, Responsible Officer) thereof, in
XXXXX-compatible form (which may be Word or Excel documents easily convertible
to XXXXX format), or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by the Trustee
and such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure,
if applicable, and include with such Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, an
Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-4,
and (B) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove,
as
the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form
10-K. The Trustee has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the
performance by the parties listed on Exhibit L-2 of their duties under this
paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties any Form 10-K
Disclosure Information. The Sponsor will be responsible for any reasonable
fees
and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trustee in connection with including
any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K pursuant to this paragraph.
(iii) After
preparing the Form 10-K, the Trustee shall forward electronically a copy of
the
Form 10-K to the Exchange Act Signing Party for review and approval. If the
Master Servicer is the Exchange Act Signing Party and the Form 10-K includes
Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, then the Form 10-K shall also be electronically
distributed to the Depositor for review and approval. No later than the close
of
business New York City time on the 4th Business Day prior to the 10-K Filing
Deadline, a duly authorized representative of the Exchange Act Signing Party
shall sign the Form 10-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed
Form 10-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail)
to
the Trustee. If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed
Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Trustee will follow the procedures set forth
in subsection (g) of this Section 6.20. Promptly (but no later than one Business
Day) after the deadline for filing such report with the Commission, the Trustee
will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form
10-K prepared and filed by the Trustee. The parties to this Agreement
acknowledge that the performance by the Trustee of its duties under this Section
6.20(e) related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 10-K is contingent
upon such parties (and any Additional Servicer or Servicing Function
Participant) strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance
of
their duties under this Section 6.20(e), Section 9.25(a), Section 9.25(b) and
Section 9.26. The Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage,
claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or
timely file such Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trustee’s
inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information
from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file
such Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.
134
(iv) Each
Form
10-K shall include the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification. The Trustee, the Paying
Agent and, if the Depositor is the Exchange Act Signing Party, the Master
Servicer, shall, and the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Master Servicer
(if
applicable) shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to,
provide to the Person who signs the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification (the
“Certifying Person”), by March 15 of each year in which the Trust Fund is
subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (each, a “Back-Up
Certification”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P-1 (or, in the case of
(x) the Paying Agent, such other form as agreed to between the Paying Agent
and
the Exchange Act Signing Party, and (y) the Trustee, the form attached hereto
as
Exhibit P-2), upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the
Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors and
Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person, “Certification Parties”)
can reasonably rely. The senior officer of the Exchange Act Signing Party shall
serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the Trust Fund. In the event the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by such parties is terminated or resigns pursuant to the

(f) Reports
Filed on Form 8-K.
(i) Within
four Business Days after the occurrence of an event requiring disclosure on
Form
8-K (each such event, a “Reportable Event”), and if requested by the Depositor,
the Trustee shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust Fund any Form 8-K,
as
required by the Exchange Act, provided
that the
Depositor shall file the initial Form 8-K in connection with the issuance of
the
Certificates. Any disclosure or information related to a Reportable Event or
that is otherwise required to be included on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K Disclosure
Information”) shall be determined and prepared by and at the direction of the
Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph and the Trustee will have no
duty
or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Form 8-K
Disclosure Information or any Form 8-K, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
(ii) As
set
forth on Exhibit L-3 hereto, for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the
Exchange Act reporting requirements, no later than Noon New York City time
on
the 2nd Business Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event (A) certain
parties to the transaction contemplated hereby shall be required to provide
to
the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible officer
thereof (or, with respect to the Trustee, a Responsible Officer thereof), in
XXXXX-compatible form (which may be Word or Excel documents easily convertible
to XXXXX format), or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by the Trustee
and such party, the form and substance of any Form 8-K Disclosure Information,
if applicable, and include with such Form 8-K Disclosure Information, an
Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-4,
and (B) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove,
as
the case may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure Information. The
Trustee has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance
by the parties listed on Exhibit L-3 of their duties under this paragraph or
proactively solicit or procure from such parties any Form 8-K Disclosure
Information. The Sponsor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and
expenses assessed or incurred by the Trustee in connection with including any
Form 8-K Disclosure Information on Form 8-K pursuant to this paragraph.
(iii) After
preparing the Form 8-K, the Trustee shall forward electronically, no later
than
Noon New York City time on the 3rd
Business
Day after the Reportable Event, a copy of the Form 8-K to the Exchange Act
Signing Party for review and approval. If the Master Servicer is the Exchange
Act Signing Party, then the Form 8-K shall also be electronically distributed
to
the Depositor for review and approval. No later than Noon New York City time
on
the 4th
Business
Day after the Reportable Event, a senior officer of the Exchange Act Signing
Party shall sign the Form 8-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such
signed Form 8-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight
mail) to the Trustee. If a Form 8-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously
filed Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Trustee will follow the procedures
set
forth in subsection (g) of this Section 6.20. Promptly (but no later than one
Business Day) after the deadline for filing such Form with the Commission,
the
Trustee will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of
each Form 8-K prepared and filed by it pursuant to this Section 6.20(f). The
parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Trustee of
its
duties under this Section 6.20(f) related to the timely preparation and filing
of Form 8-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable
deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 6.20(f). The
Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising
out
of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such
Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Trustee’s inability or failure to
obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party
hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 8-K, not
resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
136
(g) Suspension
of Reporting Obligation; Amendments; Late Filings.
(i) On
or
before January 30th
of the
first year in which the Trustee is able to do so under applicable law, unless
otherwise directed by the Depositor, the Trustee shall prepare and file a Form
15 relating to the automatic suspension of reporting in respect of the Trust
Fund under the Exchange Act.
(ii) In
the
event that the Trustee becomes aware that it will be unable to timely file
with
the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K
required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information
was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery deadlines
set forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the Trustee will promptly
notify the Depositor. In the case of Form 10-D and 10-K, the parties to this
Agreement and each Servicer will cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25
and
a 10-D/A and 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange
Act.
In the case of Form 8-K, the Trustee will, upon receipt of all required Form
8-K
Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor,
include such disclosure information on the next Form 10-D. In the event that
any
previously filed Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K needs to be amended with respect to
an
additional disclosure item, the Trustee will notify the Depositor and any
applicable party affected thereby and such parties will cooperate to prepare
any
necessary 8-K/A, 10-D/A or 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment
to
Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K shall be signed by a senior officer or a duly authorized
representative, as applicable, of the Exchange Act Signing Party. The parties
to
this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Trustee of its duties
under this Section 6.20(g) related to the timely preparation and filing of
Form
15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K is contingent
upon
each such party performing its duties under this Section. The Trustee shall
have
no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect
to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form
12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, where such failure results
from the Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis,
any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for
execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K,
10-D
or 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.
137
(h) Any
party
that signs any Exchange Act report that the Trustee is required to file shall
provide to the Trustee prompt notice of the execution of such Exchange Act
report along with the name and contact information for the person signing such
report and shall promptly deliver to the Trustee the original executed signature
page for such report. In addition, each of the parties agrees to provide to
the
Trustee such additional information related to such party as the Trustee may
reasonably request, including evidence of the authorization of the person
signing any certification or statement, financial information and reports,
and
such other information related to such party or its performance hereunder.
(i) The
Depositor and the Master Servicer, by mutual agreement, shall determine which
of
the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be the initial Exchange Act Signing
Party. Upon such determination, the Depositor shall timely notify the Trustee,
and such notice shall provide contact information for the Exchange Act Signing
Party. If the Depositor and Master Servicer, at any time, mutually agree to
change the identity of the Exchange Act Signing Party, the Depositor shall
provide timely notice to the Trustee of any such change. Any notice delivered
pursuant to this Section 6.20 may be by fax or electronic copy notwithstanding
the notice provisions of Section 11.07.
Section
6.21. [Reserved]
Section
6.22. No Merger.

Trustee shall not cause or otherwise knowingly permit the assets of the Trust
Fund to be merged or consolidated with any other entity, except as a result
of a
final judicial determination.

The
Trustee (including in its capacity as Paying Agent) and any Paying Agent other
than the Trustee each agrees to indemnify the Depositor and the Master Servicer,
and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and
the
Trust Fund and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain
arising out of or based upon the engagement by it of any Subcontractor in
violation of Section 6.01(k) or any failure by it to deliver any assessment
of
compliance, information, report or certification when and as required under
Sections 6.20 or 9.25(a).
Section
6.24. Compliance with Regulation AB.
Each
of
the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the purpose of Sections 6.01
and
6.20 of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Sponsor, the Master
Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee with the provisions of Regulation AB,
as
such may be amended or clarified from time to time. Therefore, each of the
parties agrees that (a) the obligations of the parties hereunder shall be
interpreted in such a manner as to accomplish compliance with Regulation AB,
(b)
the parties’ obligations hereunder will be supplemented and modified as
necessary to be consistent with any such amendments, interpretive advice or
guidance from the Commission, convention or consensus among active participants
in the asset-backed securities markets, or otherwise in respect of the
requirements of Regulation AB and (c) the parties shall comply with reasonable
requests made by the Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee

PURCHASE
AND TERMINATION
OF
THE
TRUST FUND
Section
7.01. Termination of Trust Fund Upon Repurchase or Liquidation of All
Mortgage Loans.
(a) The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustee and the Master
Servicer created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make
payments to Certificateholders as set forth in Section 7.02, the obligation
of
the Trustee to make payments as set forth in Section 5.06 (relating to the
Supplemental Prepayment Trust), the obligation of the Master Servicer to make
a
final remittance to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 4.01 and the obligations of the Master Servicer to the
Trustee pursuant to Sections 9.10 and 9.14), shall terminate upon the occurrence
of the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation of the last
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO
Property, (ii) the sale of the property held by the Trust Fund in accordance
with Section 7.01(b) and (iii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date (each, a “Trust
Fund Termination Event”); provided,
however,
that in
no event shall the Trust Fund or Supplemental Prepayment Trust created hereby
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late Ambassador of the United
States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof or beyond the
Latest Possible Maturity Date. Upon the occurrence of a Trust Fund Termination
Event, each REMIC shall be terminated in a manner that shall qualify as a
“qualified liquidation” under the REMIC Provisions.
(b) On
any
Distribution Date occurring after the date on which the aggregate Scheduled
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the Cut-off Date
Aggregate Principal Balance (the “Initial Optional Termination Date”), the
Master Servicer or LTURI-holders, as applicable, may, upon written direction
to
the Trustee (delivered no later than 30 days prior to the anticipated sale
date), cause (i) the Trustee to sell (or arrange for the sale of) in
consultation with the Master Servicer or LTURI-holders, as applicable, the
assets of the Trust Fund and (ii) the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete
liquidation pursuant to Section 7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its property.
The property of the Trust Fund shall be sold at a price (the “Termination
Price”) equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each
Mortgage Loan on the day of such purchase plus interest accrued thereon at
the
applicable Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Due Date
in
the Due Period immediately preceding the related Distribution Date to the date
of such repurchase, (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property and any
other
property held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be determined by an
appraiser or appraisers appointed by the Master Servicer and reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee (reduced, in the case of REO Property, by (1)
reasonably anticipated disposition costs (as determined by the Master Servicer
plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate to the date
of
purchases) and (2) any amount by which the fair market value as so reduced
exceeds the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan) and
(iii) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer, each Servicer, the Trustee and each Custodian shall be
reimbursed from the Termination Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO
Property for any Advances made or other amounts advanced with respect to the
Mortgage Loans that are reimbursable to any such entity under this Agreement,
the applicable Servicing Agreement or the applicable Custodial Agreement,
together with any accrued and unpaid compensation and any other amounts due
to
the Master Servicer or the Trustee hereunder or the Servicers or the
Custodians.
139
(c) On
any
Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial Optional Termination Date,
the Master Servicer, with the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, has the option to purchase all of the Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests. Upon exercise of such option,
the
Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests shall be sold to the Master
Servicer at a price (the “Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests
Purchase Price”) equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of
each Mortgage Loan on the day of such purchase plus interest accrued thereon
at
the applicable Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Due Date
in the Collection Period immediately preceding the related Distribution Date
to
the date of such repurchase and (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property
and any other property held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be
determined by an independent appraiser or appraisers mutually agreed upon by
the
Master Servicer and the Trustee (reduced, in the case of REO Property, by (1)
reasonably anticipated disposition costs and (2) any amount by which the fair
market value as so reduced exceeds the outstanding principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Net
Mortgage Rate to the date of such purchase). If the Master Servicer elects
to
exercise such option, each REMIC created pursuant to this Agreement (other
than
REMIC I) shall be terminated in such a manner so that the termination of each
such REMIC shall qualify as a “qualified liquidation” under the REMIC Provisions
and the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests and the Class LT-R
Certificates will evidence the entire beneficial interest in the property of
the
Trust Fund. Following a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests pursuant to this subsection, the Trust Fund (and REMIC I)
will
remain outstanding and final payment on the Certificates (other than the Class
LT-R Certificates) will be made in accordance with Sections 7.03(a)(iii) and
5.02. The Trust Fund will terminate upon the occurrence of a Trust Fund
Termination Event, in accordance with Section 7.01(a).
140
Section
7.02. Procedure Upon Termination of Trust Fund.
(a) Notice
of
any Trust Fund Termination Event and notice of the purchase of the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, specifying the Distribution Date
upon
which the final distribution to the Certificates (other than the Class LT-R
Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests) shall be made, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by
first class mail to Certificateholders mailed no later than 5 Business Days
after the Trustee has received notice from the Master Servicer of its election
to cause (x) the sale of all of the property of the Trust Fund pursuant to
Section 7.01(b), (y) the purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests pursuant to Section 7.01(c) or (z) upon the final payment
or
other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property in the Trust Fund.
In the case of a Trust Fund Termination Event, the Trustee shall also give
notice to the Certificate Registrar (if the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar are not the same person) at the time notice is given to Holders of
the
Certificates.
In
the
case of a Trust Fund Termination Event, such notice shall specify (A) the
Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates or Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests of all amounts required to be
distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02 will be made upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office,
and (B) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date
is
not applicable, distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender
of
the Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified.
Upon
any such Trust Fund Termination Event, the duties of the Certificate Registrar
with respect to the Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests shall terminate and the Trustee shall terminate or request the Master
Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains, the Certificate
Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the
Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, subject
to
the Trustee’s obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable to
Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment.
In
the
case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests,
such notice shall specify (A) the Distribution Date upon which final
distribution on the Certificates (other than the Class LT-R Certificates) of
all
amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section
5.02 (other than any distributions to the Class LT-R Certificates in respect
of
REMIC I) will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates (other
than the Class LT-R Certificates) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee,
and (B) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date
is
not applicable, distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender
of
the Certificates (other than the Class LT-R Certificates) at the office or
agency of the Trustee therein specified. Upon any such purchase of the Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, the duties of the Certificate
Registrar with respect to the Certificates other than the Class LT-R Certificate
shall terminate but the Trustee shall not terminate or request the Master
Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains, the Certificate
Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the
Certificates, subject to the Trustee’s obligation hereunder to hold all amounts
payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment.
For all Distribution Dates following the Distribution Date on which the Master
Servicer purchases the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests,
all
amounts that would be distributed on the Certificates (other than the Class
LT-R
Certificate and exclusive of amounts payable from any fund held outside of
REMIC
I) absent such purchase shall be payable to the LTURI-holder.
141
(b) In
the
event that all of the applicable Holders do not surrender their Certificates
for
cancellation within three months after the time specified in the above-mentioned
written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to such
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive
the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second
notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact such remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of such Certificates, and the cost
thereof shall be paid out of the amounts distributable to such Holders. If
within two years after the second notice such Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, subject to applicable state
law
relating to escheatment, hold all amounts distributable to such Holders for
the
benefit of such Holders. No interest shall accrue on any amount held by the
Trustee and not distributed to a Certificateholder due to such
Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of the
final distribution thereon in accordance with this Section.
(c) Any
reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with any Trust Fund
Termination Event or any purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated
Regular Interests shall be reimbursed from proceeds received from the
liquidation of the Trust Fund.
Section
7.03. Additional Requirements for any Trust Fund Termination Events or
Purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests.
(a) Any
termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or any termination
of
a REMIC pursuant to Section 7.01(c) shall be effected in accordance with the
following additional requirements, unless the Trustee receives (at the request
of the party exercising the option to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans or
Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests pursuant to Section 7.01(b)
or Section 7.01(c), respectively) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of
such
requesting party), addressed to the Trustee to the effect that the failure
to
comply with the requirements of this Section 7.03 will not result in an Adverse
REMIC Event:
(i) Within
89
days prior to the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates
other than the Class LT-R Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, upon notification by the Master
Servicer or an Affiliate of the Seller that it intends to exercise its option
to
cause the termination of the Trust Fund or purchase the Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests, the Trustee shall adopt a plan of complete
liquidation on behalf of each REMIC (other than REMIC I, in the case of a
purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests), meeting
the requirements of a qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions;
142
(ii) Any
sale
of the assets of the Trust Fund or the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be a sale for cash and shall occur
at
or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation and prior
to the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates (other than
the
Class LT-R Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC
1
Uncertificated Regular Interests);
(iii) On
the
date specified for final payment of the Certificates (other than the Class
LT-R
Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests), the Trustee shall make final distributions of principal
and
interest on such Certificates in accordance with Section 5.02. In the case
of a
Trust Fund Termination Event, and, after payment of, or provision for any
outstanding expenses, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates all cash
on
hand after such final payment (other than cash retained to meet claims), and
the
Trust Fund (and each REMIC) shall terminate at that time; and
(iv) In
no
event may the final payment on the Certificates or the final distribution or
credit to the Holders of the Residual Certificates in respect of the residual
interest in any liquidated REMIC be made after the 89th day from the date on
which the plan of complete liquidation for such REMIC is adopted.
(b) By
its
acceptance of a Residual Certificate, each Holder thereof hereby (i) authorizes
the Trustee to take the action described in paragraph (a) above and (ii) agrees
to take such other action as may be necessary to facilitate liquidation of
each
REMIC created under this Agreement, which authorization shall be binding upon
all successor Residual Certificateholders.
(c) In
connection with the termination of the Trust Fund or a Section 7.01(c) Purchase
Event, the Trustee may request an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee
(at the expense of the Depositor) to the effect that all of the requirements
of
a qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions have been met.
Section
7.04. Charged-off Loans and Released Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Charged-off Loan
that
becomes a Released Mortgage Loan shall be released from the Trust Fund as soon
as practicable after becoming a Released Mortgage Loan and shall no longer
be an
asset of any REMIC. Each Released Mortgage Loan shall be transferred to the
Released Mortgage Transferee, without recourse. The Trustee, upon receipt of
certification from the Master Servicer that a Charged-off Loan has become a
Released Mortgage Loan, shall execute such instruments of transfer, assignment
or release, in each case, without recourse, as shall be provided by the Master
Servicer and necessary to transfer such Released Mortgage Loan. Thereafter
(i)
the Released Mortgage Transferee shall be entitled to any amounts subsequently
received in respect of any such Released Mortgage Loans, (ii) the Released
Mortgage Transferee may designate any Servicer to service any such Released
Mortgage Loan and (iii) the Released Mortgage Transferee may sell any such
Released Mortgage Loan to a third party. For purposes of compliance with the
REMIC Provisions, any such Released Mortgage Loan transferred to the Released
Mortgage Transferee pursuant to this Section 7.04 and having any value as of
the
date of such transfer shall be treated as having been transferred by the related
REMIC as additional compensation for services provided to such
REMIC.

RIGHTS
OF
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS
Section

Agreement or this Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder’s legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or take any action or proceeding
in any court for a partition or winding up of this Trust Fund, nor otherwise
affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any
of
them. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Certificateholder,
solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder, shall have any right
to
vote or in any manner otherwise control the Master Servicer or the operation
and
management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor

be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as

any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties
to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
(b) No
Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as Certificateholder, shall
have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Agreement
to
institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under

thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Class Principal Amount (or Class Notional
Amount) of Certificates of each Class 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 cost, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein
or
thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty 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 and no direction inconsistent with such written
request has been given such Trustee during such sixty-day period by such
Certificateholders; it being understood and intended, and being expressly
covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and
the
Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in
any
manner whatever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Agreement
to

Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to
any
other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in
the
manner herein provided and for the benefit of all Certificateholders. For the

apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that the Applicants
desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under
this
Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of the
communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall,
within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such
Applicants reasonable access during the normal business hours of the Trustee
to
the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Trustee or shall, as
an
alternative, send, at the Applicants’ expense, the written communication
proffered by the Applicants to all Certificateholders at their addresses as
they
appear in the Certificate Register.
(c) Every
Holder or Certificate Owner, if the Holder is a Clearing Agency, by receiving
and holding a Certificate, agrees with the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the
Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that neither the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall be held accountable
by
reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses
of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.
Section
8.03. Acts of Holders of Certificates.
(a) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Holders or Certificate
Owner, if the Holder is a Clearing Agency, may be embodied in and evidenced
by
one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders
in
person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument
or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where expressly required herein,
to the Master Servicer. Such instrument or instruments (as the action embodies
therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as an “Act” of
the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agents shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and
the
Master Servicer, if made in the manner provided in this Section. Each of the
Trustee and the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the others of receipt
of
any such instrument by it, and shall promptly forward a copy of such instrument
to the others.
145
(b) The
fact
and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may
be
proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate
of
any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments
or
deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing
acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Whenever such execution is by an
officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership on behalf of such
corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any
such instrument or writing, or the authority of the individual executing the
same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient.
(c) The
ownership of Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular Interests
(whether or not such Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular
Interests shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing thereon made by anyone other than the Trustee) shall be proved
by
the Certificate Register, and none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, or
the
Depositor shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(d) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action by the Holder of any Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated
Regular Interests shall bind every future Holder of the same Certificate and
the
Holder of every Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC I Uncertificated Regular
Interests issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered
to
be done by the Trustee or the Master Servicer in reliance thereon, whether
or
not notation of such action is made upon such Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC
I
Uncertificated Regular Interests.

Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a 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 that would meet
the requirements of FNMA or FHLMC if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage
Loans. The Master Servicer shall (i) require each Servicer to maintain an Errors
and Omissions Insurance Policy and a Fidelity Bond in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable Servicing Agreement, (ii) cause each Servicer
to
provide to the Master Servicer certificates evidencing that such policy and
bond
is in effect and to furnish to the Master Servicer any notice of cancellation,
non-renewal or modification of the policy or bond received by it, as and to
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, and (iii) furnish copies
of the certificates and notices referred to in clause (ii) to the Trustee upon
its request. The Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy may
be
obtained and maintained in blanket form.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee any material changes that
may occur in the Master Servicer Fidelity Bond or the Master Servicer Errors
and
Omissions Insurance Policy and shall furnish to the Trustee, on request,
certificates evidencing that such bond and insurance policy are in full force
and effect. The Master Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee all cases
of embezzlement or fraud, if such events involve funds relating to the Mortgage
Loans. The total losses, regardless of whether claims are filed with the
applicable insurer or surety, shall be disclosed in such reports together with
the amount of such losses covered by insurance. If a bond or insurance claim
report is filed with any of such bonding companies or insurers, the Master
Servicer shall promptly furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee. Any
amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans collected by the Master Servicer under
any such bond or policy shall be promptly remitted by the Master Servicer to
the
Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account. Any amounts relating to the

be
remitted to the Master Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable
Servicing Agreement.
Section

For
each
year this Agreement is in effect, the Master Servicer shall submit to each
Rating Agency and the Depositor a copy of the annual audited financial

commencing on March 31, 2008. Such financial statements shall include
comparative balance sheets, income statements, statement of changes in
shareholder's equity, statements of cash flows, a consolidating schedule showing
consolidated subsidiaries and any related notes required pursuant to generally
accepted accounting principles, certified by a nationally recognized firm of
Independent Accountants to the effect that such financial statements were
examined and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding
year.
147
Section
9.04. Power to Act; Procedures.
(a) 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, and each Servicer shall have full power and authority (to
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) to do any and all things
that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the 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 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
and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate 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 applicable
Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided
that the
Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer to take, any
action that is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund,
the Trustee or the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights and
interests of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders under this
Agreement. The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the
Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name
or
in the name of any Servicer, when the Master Servicer or a Servicer, as the
case
may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage
Loan with MERS, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage
Loan
on the MERS system, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and
other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording
of
a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its
successors and assigns. The Master Servicer shall represent and protect the
interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its own interests
in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation
regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or knowingly permit any Servicer
to
make any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan
that
would cause any REMIC formed hereby to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result
in
the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its
own
name or in the name of a Servicer, and each Servicer, to the extent such
authority is delegated to such Servicer by the Master Servicer under the
applicable Servicing Agreement, is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Trustee when the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer, as the case may be,
believes it appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of itself and the Certificateholders, the Trustee or any
of
them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial
or
full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect
to
the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Trustee
shall execute, upon request, any powers of attorney furnished to it (and
reasonably acceptable to it) by the Master Servicer 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, necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to master
service the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, and allow each
Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in each case in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of
any
such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or any Servicer). 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 Trustee or that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing
business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, then
upon request of the Trustee, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee
in
the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.09 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. 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.
148
(b) In
master
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall employ
procedures and exercise the same care that it customarily employs and exercises
in master servicing and administering loans for its own account, giving due
consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not
conflict with this Agreement. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer
may, and may permit any Servicer to, in its discretion (i) waive any late
payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with
the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the due dates for payments
due
on a Mortgage Note, provided, however, that the maturity of any Mortgage Loan
shall not be extended past the Final Scheduled Distribution Date. In the event
of any such modification, the Servicer or Master Servicer shall calculate the
Scheduled Payment for such Mortgage Loan based on the modified terms of such
Mortgage Loan and shall only be required to make Advances pursuant to Section
5.04 to the extent of such new Scheduled Payment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not make
or knowingly permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any material term
of any Mortgage Loan unless: (1) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default
by
the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer
or
the applicable
Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, (2) in the case of a waiver of a Prepayment
Penalty Amount if (a) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default by the related
Mortgagor is reasonably foreseeable, and such waiver would maximize recovery
of
total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Penalty Amount
and the related Mortgage Loan or (b) if the prepayment is not the result of
a
refinance by a Servicer or any of its affiliates and (i) the collection of
the
Prepayment Penalty Amount would be in violation of applicable laws or (ii)
the
collection of such Prepayment Penalty Amount would be considered “predatory”
pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal,
state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having
jurisdiction over such matters, and (3) such modification, waiver or amendment
would not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, 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.
149
Section
9.05. Servicing Agreements Between the Master Servicer and Servicers;
Enforcement of Servicers’ Obligations.
(a) Each
Servicing Agreement requires the applicable Servicer to service the Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the provisions thereof. References in this Agreement
to
actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include such actions taken
or to be taken by a Servicer pursuant to a Servicing Agreement. Any fees, costs
and expenses and other amounts payable to such Servicers shall be deducted
from
amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by the applicable Servicer (to the
extent permitted by the applicable Servicing Agreement) and shall not be an
obligation of the Trust Fund, the Trustee or the Master Servicer.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall not be required to (i) take any action with respect to
the
servicing of any Mortgage Loan that the related Servicer is not required to
take
under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) cause a Servicer to take any
action or refrain from taking any action if the related Servicing Agreement
does
not
require
such Servicer to take such action or refrain from taking such action; in both
cases notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement that requires the Master
Servicer to take such action or cause a Servicer to take such
action.
(c) The
Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders,
shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the
related
Servicing Agreement, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to enforce the
obligations of each Servicer under the related
Servicing
Agreement and shall, upon its obtaining actual knowledge of the failure of
a
Servicer to perform its obligations in accordance with the related
Servicing
Agreement, to the extent that the non-performance of any such obligations would
have a material adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan, the Trust Fund or
Certificateholders terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer
thereunder to the extent and in the manner permitted by each Servicing Agreement
and either act as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a
Servicing Agreement with a successor servicer. Such enforcement, including,
without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of the
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, and shall be reimbursed therefor initially
only
(i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement only to the extent,
if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related
Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’
fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed, and then,
to
the extent that such amounts are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer
for the costs of such enforcement, (iii) from the Collection
Account.
150
(d) The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any certifications
or
other information provided by each Servicer under the terms of each Servicing
Agreement in its preparation of any certifications, notifications, filings
or
reports to be made in accordance with the terms hereof or as may be required
by
applicable law or regulation.
Section
9.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items.
(a) To
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall
cause each Servicer to establish and maintain one or more custodial accounts
at
a depository institution (which may be a depository institution with which
the
Master Servicer or any Servicer establishes accounts in the ordinary course
of
its servicing activities), the accounts of which are insured to the maximum
extent permitted by the FDIC (each, an “Escrow Account”) and shall deposit
therein any collections of amounts received with respect to amounts due for
taxes, assessments, water rates, Standard Hazard Insurance Policy premiums
or
any comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Withdrawals from any
Escrow Account may be made (to the extent amounts have been escrowed for such
purpose) only in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. Each
Servicer shall be entitled to all investment income not required to be paid
to
Mortgagors on any Escrow Account maintained by such Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall make (or cause to be made) to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement advances to the extent necessary in order to
effect timely payment of taxes, water rates, assessments, Standard Hazard
Insurance Policy premiums or comparable items in connection with the related
Mortgage Loan (to the extent that the Mortgagor is required, but fails, to
pay
such items), provided
that it
has determined that the funds so advanced are recoverable from escrow payments,
reimbursement pursuant to Section 4.02(v) or otherwise.
(b) Costs
incurred by the Master Servicer or by Servicers in effecting the timely payment
of taxes and assessments on the properties subject to the Mortgage Loans may
be
added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage Note where the terms of
the
Mortgage Note 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. Such costs,
to
the extent that they are unanticipated, extraordinary costs, and not ordinary
or
routine costs shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section
4.02(v).
Section
9.07. Termination of Servicing Agreements; Successor
Servicers.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of
any
Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms
and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue
of this Agreement; provided,
however,
that in
the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer
or
the related Servicer, the Master Servicer shall either act as Servicer of the
related Mortgage Loans, or enter into a servicing agreement with a successor
servicer. The parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
there may be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect
the
transfer of servicing to a successor servicer. The Master Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if such
Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs
associated with the transfer of servicing from the predecessor Servicer,
including without limitation, any costs or expenses associated with the complete
transfer of all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation
of
such servicing data, as may be required by the Master Servicer to correct any
errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the
Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and
effectively.
151
(b) 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. The
Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor servicer
assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated
Servicer in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, and in the event of any
such
assumption by the successor servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as
applicable, may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the
terminated Servicer from liability for such representations and
warranties.
Section
9.08. Master Servicer Liable for Enforcement.
Notwithstanding
any Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable
to the Trustee and the Certificateholders in accordance with the provisions
of
this Agreement, to the extent of its obligations hereunder, without diminution
of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Servicing Agreement or
arrangements. The Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to
ensure that the Mortgage Loans are serviced in accordance with the provisions
of
this Agreement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the
provisions of each Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any
agreement with the Servicers for indemnification of the Master Servicer and
nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Master Servicer
shall
have no liability for the acts or omissions of such Servicer in the performance
by a Servicer of its obligations under the related Servicing
Agreement.
Section
9.09. No Contractual Relationship Between Servicers and Trustee or
Depositor.
Any
Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Servicer in its capacity
as
such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between such Servicer,
the
related Seller and the Master Servicer, and except to the extent expressly
provided therein the Trustee and the Depositor shall not be deemed parties
thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities
with respect to such Servicer except as set forth in Section 9.10
hereof.
Section
9.10. Assumption of Servicing Agreement by Trustee.
(a) In
the
event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer
(including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement), after a
period not to exceed ninety days after the issuance of any notice of termination
pursuant to Section 6.14 or Section 9.28, as applicable, the Trustee shall,
in
accordance with Section 6.14, thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations
of such Master Servicer hereunder and enforce the rights under each Servicing
Agreement entered into with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee, its
designee or any successor master servicer appointed by the Trustee shall be
deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest herein and therein
to the same extent as if such Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the
assuming party, except that the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved
of
any liability or obligations of the Master Servicer under such Servicing
Agreement accruing prior to its replacement as Master Servicer, and shall be
liable to the Trustee, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Trustee from and against all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee as a result of such
liability or obligations of the Master Servicer and in connection with the
Trustee’s (or its designee) assumption (but not its performance, except to the
extent that costs or liability of the Trustee are created or increased as a
result of negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of the Master Servicer prior
to its replacement as Master Servicer) of the Master Servicer’s obligations,
duties or responsibilities thereunder; provided
that the
Master Servicer shall not indemnify or hold harmless the Trustee against
negligent or willful misconduct of the Trustee.
152
(b) The
Master Servicer that has been terminated shall, upon request of the Trustee
but
at the expense of such Master Servicer or, at the expense of the Trust Fund
to
the extent provided in this Agreement, deliver to the assuming party all
documents and records relating to each Servicing Agreement and the related
Mortgage Loans and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer
of
each Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.
Section
9.11. “Due-on-Sale” Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
(a) To
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, to the extent Mortgage
Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, and to the extent that the Master
Servicer has knowledge of the conveyance of a Mortgaged Property, the Master
Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to 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.
(b) The
Master Servicer or the related Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled
to approve a request from a Mortgagor for the granting of an easement thereon
in
favor of another Person or any alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged
Property if it has determined, exercising its good faith business judgment
in
the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan,
that the security for, and the timely and full collectibility of, such Mortgage
Loan would not be materially adversely affected thereby. Any fee collected
by
the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for processing such a request will
be retained by the Master Servicer or the such Servicer as additional servicing
compensation.
153
Section
9.12. Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon
(i)
becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan or, (ii) the receipt
by the applicable Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been
or
will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer
will, or will cause the applicable Servicer to, promptly notify the Trustee
(or
the applicable Custodian) by a certification (which certification shall include
a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the Collection
Account maintained by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01 have been
or
will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request the Trustee
or
the applicable Custodian, to deliver to the applicable Servicer the related
Mortgage File. In lieu of sending a hard copy certification of a Servicing
Officer, the Master Servicer may, or may cause a Servicer to, deliver the
request for release in a mutually agreeable electronic format. To the extent
that such a request, on its face, originates from a Servicing Officer, no
signature shall be required. Upon receipt of such certification and request,
the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian, shall promptly release the related Mortgage
File to the applicable Servicer and neither the Trustee nor the applicable
Custodian shall have any further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage
File. The Master Servicer is authorized, and each Servicer, to the extent such
authority is delegated to the Servicer by the Master Servicer under the
applicable Servicing Agreement, 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 Collection Account.
(b) From
time
to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of, or other legal
proceedings relating to, any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall
execute such pleadings, request for trustee’s sale or other documents as shall
be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, or by a
Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary
to
the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee or the applicable
Custodian, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer, or of a Servicer, and
delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, of a trust receipt signed
by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
C or
in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as Exhibit C, release
the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the Master
Servicer (or the applicable Servicer). Such trust receipt shall obligate the
Master Servicer or applicable Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the
Trustee or applicable Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor by the
Master Servicer or applicable Servicer no longer exists unless (i) the Mortgage
Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a
Servicing Officer similar to that herein above specified, the trust receipt
shall be released by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable,
to
the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer) or (ii) the Mortgage File
has
been delivered directly or through a Servicer to an attorney, or to a public
trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating
or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the
Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer
has delivered directly or through a Servicer to the Trustee a certificate of
a
Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which
such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes
of
such delivery.
154
Section
9.13. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be
Held for Trustee.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall transmit, or cause the applicable Servicer to transmit,
to
the Trustee 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 to be delivered to the Trustee. 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 a Subsequent Recovery,
Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan
shall
be held for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders subject to
the
Master Servicer’s right to retain or withdraw from the Collection Account the
Master Servicing Fee and other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the
right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided
in the applicable Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and shall
(to
the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) cause a Servicer
to,
provide access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
(i)
to the Trustee, its agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request
and during normal business hours, and (ii) 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, in each case to the extent so required by
applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or such 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.
(b) All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer, or any Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether
from
the collection of principal and interest payments or from a Subsequent Recovery,
Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master
Servicer, or by such Servicer, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property
of
the Trustee; 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 and shall be authorized to remit such funds to the Trustee
in accordance with this Agreement.
155
(c) The
Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with the execution of
this
Agreement, the Trustee shall own or, to the extent that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans from either Seller
to the Depositor not to constitute a sale, the Trustee shall have a security
interest in either Mortgage Loans and in all Mortgage Files representing such
Mortgage Loans and in all funds now or hereafter held by, or under the control
of, a Servicer or the Master Servicer that are collected by such Servicer or
the
Master Servicer in connection with such Mortgage Loans, whether as scheduled
installments of principal and interest or as full or partial prepayments of
principal or interest or as a Subsequent Recovery, Liquidation Proceeds or
Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, and in all proceeds of the foregoing and
proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any fee or other amounts to which such
Servicer is entitled under the applicable Servicing Agreement, or the Master
Servicer or the Depositor is entitled to hereunder); and the Master Servicer
agrees that so long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned to and held by the
Trustee or a Custodian, all documents or instruments constituting part of the
Mortgage Files, and such funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which come into
the possession or custody of, or which are subject to the control of, the Master
Servicer or any Servicer shall be held by the Master Servicer or such Servicer
for and on behalf of the Trustee as the Trustee’s agent and bailee for purposes
of perfecting the Trustee’s security interest therein as provided by the
applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other laws.
(d) The
Master Servicer agrees that it shall not, and shall not authorize a Servicer
to,
create, incur or subject any Mortgage Loans, or any funds that are deposited
in
any custodial account, Escrow Account or the Collection Account, or any funds
that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Trustee, to any claim,
lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other
encumbrance, nor assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of
setoff against any Mortgage Loan or any funds collected on, or in connection
with, a Mortgage Loan.

the
Trustee as provided in this Section constitutes the sole remedy (other than
as
set forth in Section 6.14) of the Depositor and the Trustee, respecting a breach
of the foregoing representations and warranties. Such indemnification shall
survive any termination of the Master Servicer as Master Servicer hereunder,
and

Any
cause
of action against the Master Servicer relating to or arising out of the breach
of any representations and warranties made in this Section shall accrue upon
discovery of such breach by either the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the

understood and agreed that the representations and warranties of the Depositor
set forth in Sections 2.03(a) through (f) shall survive the execution and

158
Section
9.16. Standard Hazard and Flood Insurance Policies.
For
each
Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the Master Servicer shall
maintain, or cause to be maintained by each Servicer, standard fire and casualty
insurance and, where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
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.
Pursuant
to Section 4.01, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer, or by any
Servicer, under any insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section
9.16
(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 Master Servicer’s or a Servicer’s normal servicing procedures and Accepted
Servicing Practices) shall be deposited into the Collection Account, subject
to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02. 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(v).
Section
9.17. Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds.
The
Master Servicer shall, or shall cause each Servicer (to the extent provided
in
the applicable Servicing Agreement) to, prepare and present on behalf of the
Trustee and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies
with
respect to the Mortgage Loans, 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 or bonds shall be promptly deposited in the
Collection Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are
to be
applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property or
released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer’s or a
Servicer’s normal servicing procedures need not be so deposited (or
remitted).
Section
9.18. Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer (consistent
with the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that would result
in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any
loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or Servicer, would
have
been covered thereunder. To the extent that coverage is available, the Master
Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to keep in force and effect,
or
to cause each Servicer 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 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, cancel
or
refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect
at
the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be
kept
in force hereunder except as required by applicable law or in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.
159
(b) The
Master Servicer agrees to present, or to cause each Servicer to present, on
behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under
any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such
reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to
Section 4.01, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or any Servicer
under
any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02.
Section
9.19. Trustee To Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and
Documents.
The
Trustee (or the applicable Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement),
shall
retain possession and custody of the originals of the Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policies or certificate of insurance if applicable and any certificates of
renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time as contemplated
by this Agreement. 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 any Custodian,
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 applicable Custodian pursuant to the Custodial
Agreement), upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of the Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies and any certificates of renewal thereof, 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.
Section
9.20. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
The
Master Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to, or to cause a Servicer
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, all in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement. Alternatively, the Master Servicer may take, or authorize
any Servicer to take, other actions in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan,
which may include (i) accepting a short sale (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan
for
an amount less than the total amount contractually owed in order to facilitate
a
sale of the Mortgaged Property by the Mortgagor) or permitting a short
refinancing (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total
amount contractually owed in order to facilitate refinancing transactions by
the
Mortgagor not involving a sale of the Mortgaged Property), (ii) arranging for
a
repayment plan or (iii) agreeing to a modification in accordance with Section
9.04. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion or action, the
Master Servicer shall, consistent with Section 9.18, follow such practices
and
procedures as it shall reasonably determine to be in the best interests of
the
Trust Fund and the Certificateholders and which shall be consistent with its
customary practices in performing its general mortgage servicing activities;
provided that the Master Servicer shall not be liable in any respect hereunder
if the Master Servicer is acting in connection with any such foreclosure or
other conversion or action in a manner that is consistent with the provisions
of
this Agreement. Neither the Master Servicer, nor any Servicer, shall be required
to expend its own funds or incur other reimbursable charges in connection with
any foreclosure, or attempted foreclosure which is not completed, or toward
the
correction of any default on a related senior mortgage loan, or towards the
restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration
and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage
Loan to the Certificateholders after reimbursement to itself for such expenses
or charges and (ii) that such expenses and charges will be recoverable to it
through Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds (as provided in Section
4.02).
160
Section
9.21. Compensation to the Master Servicer.
The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw from the Collection Account,
the
Master Servicing Fee and any other amounts pursuant to Section 4.02(vi).
Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment
charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise shall be retained by the Master
Servicer (or the applicable Servicer) and shall not be deposited in the
Collection Account. If the Master Servicer does not retain or withdraw the
Master Servicing Fee from the Collection Account as provided herein, the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to pay the Master Servicing
Fee
to such Master Servicer by withdrawal from the Certificate 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. Pursuant to Section 4.01(e), all income
and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Collection Account shall
be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional compensation. The
provisions of this Section 9.21 are subject to the provisions of Section
6.14(b).
Section
9.22. REO Property.
(a) In
the
event the Trust Fund acquires ownership of any REO Property in respect of any
Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee,
or to its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer
shall use its reasonable best efforts to sell, or, to the extent provided in
the
applicable Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to sell, any
REO
Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions
of
this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable, but in all
events within the time period, and subject to the conditions set forth in
Article X hereof. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master
Servicer shall protect and conserve, or cause the applicable Servicer to protect
and conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to such extent required by
the
applicable Servicing Agreement, subject to Article X hereof.
161
(b) The
Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited all funds collected
and
received by it, or recovered from any Servicer, in connection with the operation
of any REO Property in the Collection 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 as well as any unpaid Master Servicing Fees or Servicing Fees from
Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition of such
REO Property; provided,
that
(without limitation of any other right of reimbursement that the Master Servicer
or any Servicer shall have hereunder) any such unreimbursed Advances as well
as
any unpaid Master Servicing Fees or 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) 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 Collection Account on or prior to the Determination
Date in the month following receipt thereof and be remitted by wire transfer
in
immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate
Account on the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date.
Section
9.23. Notices to the Depositor and the Trustee
(a) The
Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Sponsor and the Depositor
(i) of any legal proceedings pending against the Master Servicer of the type
described in Item 1117 (§ 229.1117) of Regulation AB and (ii) if the Master
Servicer shall become (but only to the extent not previously disclosed) at
any
time an affiliate of any of the parties listed on Exhibit I to this Agreement.
On or before March 1st
of each
year, the Depositor shall distribute the information in Exhibit I to the Master
Servicer.
(b) Not
later
than three Business Days prior to the Distribution Date of each month, the
Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, the Sponsor and the Depositor
notice of the occurrence of any material modifications, extensions or waivers
of
terms, fees, penalties or payments relating to the Mortgage Loans during the
related Collection Period or that have cumulatively become material over time
(Item 1121(a)(11) of Regulation AB) along with all information, data, and
materials related thereto as may be required to be included in the related
Distribution Report on Form 10-D. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge
that
the performance by the Master Servicer of its duties under this Section 9.23(b)
related to the timely preparation and delivery of such information is contingent
upon each applicable Servicer strictly observing all requirements and deadlines
in the performance of their duties under their related Servicing Agreements.
The
Master Servicer shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim
arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely
deliver all such information where such failure results from the Master
Servicer’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any Servicer needed to prepare or deliver such information,
which failure does not result from the Master Servicer’s own negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct.
162
Section
9.24. Reports to the Trustee.
(a) Not
later
than 30 days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall forward
to
the Trustee a statement, deemed to have been certified by a Servicing Officer,
setting forth the status of the Collection Account maintained by the Master
Servicer as of the close of business on the related Distribution Date,
indicating that all distributions required by this Agreement to be made by
the
Master Servicer have been made (or if any required distribution has not been
made by the Master Servicer, specifying the nature and status thereof) and
showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate of deposits
into and withdrawals from the Collection Account maintained by the Master
Servicer. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Master Servicer
to
the Depositor, Attention: Contract Finance, and, upon request, any
Certificateholders (or by the Trustee at the Master Servicer’s expense if the
Master Servicer shall fail to provide such copies (unless (i) the Master
Servicer shall have failed to provide the Trustee with such statement or (ii)
the Trustee shall be unaware of the Master Servicer’s failure to provide such
statement)).
(b) Not
later
than two Business Days following each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer
shall deliver to the Person designated by the Depositor, in a format consistent
with other electronic loan level reporting supplied by the Master Servicer
in
connection with similar transactions, “loan level” information with respect to
the Mortgage Loans as of the related Determination Date (including information
on any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls), to the extent that such information
has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicers or by the
Depositor.
(c) All
information, reports and statements prepared by the Master Servicer under this
Agreement shall be based on information supplied to the Master Servicer by
the
Servicers without independent verification thereof and the Master Servicer
shall
be entitled to rely on such information.
Section
9.25. Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Reports.
(a) Assessment
of Compliance
(i) By
March
15 of each year, commencing in March 2008, the Master Servicer, the Paying
Agent
(if other than the Trustee) and the Trustee, each at its own expense, shall
furnish, and shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to
furnish, each at its own expense, to the Sponsor, the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee, 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 6.20(e), 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. If the Trustee and the Paying
Agent are the same party, the Relevant Servicing Criteria of the Paying Agent
shall be included in the Trustee’s report.
163
(ii) When
the
Master Servicer, the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Trustee
(or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it) submit their assessments
to the Trustee, such parties will also at such time include the assessment
(and
attestation pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 9.25) of each Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it and shall indicate to the Trustee what
Relevant Servicing Criteria will be addressed in any such reports prepared
by
any such Servicing Function Participant.
(iii) Promptly
after receipt of each report on assessment of compliance, the Trustee shall
confirm that the assessments, taken as a whole, address all applicable Servicing
Criteria and taken individually address the Relevant Servicing Criteria (and
disclose the inapplicability of the Servicing Criteria not determined to be
Relevant Criteria) for each party as set forth on Exhibit Q and on any similar
exhibit set forth in each Servicing Agreement in respect of each Servicer,
and
each Custodial Agreement in respect of each Custodian, and shall notify the
Depositor of any exceptions. By way of clarification and for the avoidance
of
doubt, it is acknowledged that the Trustee shall rely exclusively on Exhibit
Q
and on any similar exhibit set forth in the Servicing Agreement and Custodial
Agreement to determine such applicable Servicing Criteria and Relevant Servicing
Criteria, as the case may be, and shall not otherwise be reporting on the
content of or sufficiency of such assessments.
(b) Attestation
Reports
(i) By
March
15 of each year, commencing in March 2008, the Master Servicer, the Paying
Agent
(if other than the Trustee) and the Trustee, each at its own expense, shall
cause, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant
engaged by it to cause, each at its own expense, a registered public accounting
firm (which may also render other services to the Master Servicer, the Paying
Agent and the Trustee, as the case may be) that is a member of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a report to the Sponsor,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, to the effect that (A)
it
has obtained a representation regarding certain matters from the management
of
such party, which includes an assertion that such party has complied with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria, and (B) on the basis of an examination conducted
by
such firm in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or
adopted by the PCAOB, it is expressing an opinion as to whether such party’s
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria was fairly stated in all
material respects, or it cannot express an overall opinion regarding such
party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria. If the
Trustee and the Paying Agent are the same party, the attestation report caused
to be furnished by the Trustee shall also address the Relevant Servicing
Criteria of the Paying Agent. In the event that an overall opinion cannot be
expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report
why
it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for
general use and not contain restricted use language.
164
(ii) Promptly
after receipt of such report from the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent, the
Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such parties, the
Trustee shall confirm that each assessment submitted pursuant subsection (a)
of
this Section 9.25 is coupled with an attestation meeting the requirements of
this Section and notify the Depositor of any exceptions.
(c) The
Trustee's, Paying Agent’s and the Master Servicer’s obligation to provide
assessments of compliance and attestations under this Section 9.25 shall
terminate upon the filing of a Form 15 suspension notice on behalf of the Trust
Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing after the occurrence of such event and
provided the Depositor is not otherwise provided with such reports or copies
of
such reports, the Trustee and Paying Agent shall be obligated to provide a
copy
of such reports by March 15 of each year to the Depositor.
Section
9.26. Annual Statement of Compliance with Applicable Servicing
Criteria.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall deliver (and the Master Servicer shall cause any
Additional Servicer engaged by it to deliver) to the Sponsor, the Depositor
and
the Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, commencing in March 2008, an
Officer’s Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (A) a review of
such party’s activities during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof
and of such party’s performance under this Agreement, or such other applicable
agreement in the case of an Additional Servicer, has been made under such
officer’s supervision and (B) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on
such review, such party has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement,
or such other applicable agreement in the case of an Additional Servicer, in
all
material respects throughout such year or portion thereof, or, if there has
been
a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying
each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof.
Copies
of
such statements shall be provided to any Certificateholder upon request, by
the
Master Servicer or by the Trustee at the Master Servicer’s expense if the Master
Servicer failed to provide such copies (unless (i) the Master Servicer shall
have failed to provide the Trustee with such statement or (ii) the Trustee
shall
be unaware of the Master Servicer’s failure to provide such
statement).
(b) The
Master Servicer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee, the Sponsor
and
the Depositor of the appointment of any Subcontractor by it and a written
description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Sponsor
and

Master Servicer, specifying (A) the identity of each such Subcontractor and
(B)
which elements of the Servicing Criteria set forth under Item 1122(d) of
Regulation AB will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each
such Subcontractor for
which
the Master Servicer does not elect to take responsibility for assessing
compliance with the Servicing Criteria in accordance with Regulation AB
Telephone Interpretation 17.06.

Section

Any
Person into which the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger, conversion, other change in form 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 to
the
Master Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or
any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding; provided,
however,
that
the successor or resulting Person to the Master Servicer shall be a Person
that
shall be qualified and approved to service mortgage loans for FNMA or FHLMC
and
shall have a net worth of not less than $15,000,000.
Section
9.28. Resignation of Master Servicer.
Except
as
otherwise provided in Sections 9.27 and 9.29 hereof, the Master Servicer shall
not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it unless it
determines that the Master Servicer’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible
under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law
with any other activities carried on by it and cannot be cured. Any such
determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel that shall be Independent to such effect
delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until
the
Trustee shall have assumed, or a successor master servicer acceptable to the
Trustee shall have been appointed by the Trustee and until such successor shall
have assumed, the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this
Agreement. Notice of such resignation shall be given promptly by the Master
Servicer and the Depositor to the Trustee.
Section
9.29. Assignment or Delegation of Duties by the Master
Servicer.
Except
as
expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer
any
of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate
to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any Subservicer, Subcontractor
or any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations
to be
performed by the Master Servicer hereunder; provided,
however,
that
the Master Servicer shall have the right without the prior written consent
of
the Trustee, the Depositor or the Rating Agencies to delegate or assign to
or
subcontract with or authorize or appoint an Affiliate of the Master Servicer
to
perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed
and
carried out by the Master Servicer hereunder. In no case, however, shall any
such delegation, subcontracting or assignment to an Affiliate of the Master
Servicer relieve the Master Servicer of any liability hereunder. Notice of
such
permitted assignment shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer to the
Depositor and the Trustee. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties
of
the Master Servicer are transferred to a successor master servicer, the entire
amount of the Master Servicing Fees and other compensation payable to the Master
Servicer pursuant hereto, including amounts payable to or permitted to be
retained or withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 9.21 hereof,
shall thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.
The
Master Servicer shall not permit a Subservicer to perform any master servicing
responsibilities hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans unless that
Subservicer first agrees in writing with such Master Servicer to deliver an
assessment of compliance and an accountant’s attestation in such manner and at
such times in compliance with Sections 9.25(a)(ii) and (b)(ii) of this
Agreement.
166
Section
9.30. Limitation on Liability of the Master Servicer and
Others.
(a) The
Master Servicer undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement.
(b) No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Master Servicer
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act
or
its own willful misconduct; provided,
however,
that
the
duties
and obligations of the Master Servicer shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be liable except
for
the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth
in
this Agreement; no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement against the Master Servicer and, in absence of bad faith on the part
of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement.
(c) None
of
the Master Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor or any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of any of them shall be under any liability to
the
Trustee or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from
the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors
in judgment; provided,
however,
that
this provision shall not protect the Master Servicer, the Seller or the
Depositor or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be
imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in its
performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard for its obligations
and duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Seller and the
Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of them shall
be
entitled to indemnification by the Trust Fund and will be held harmless against
any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action
relating to this Agreement or the Certificates other than any loss, liability
or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence
in
the performance of his or its duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of his or its obligations and duties hereunder. The Master Servicer,
the Seller and the Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of
any
of them 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.
The Master Servicer shall be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or
defend any legal action that is not incidental to its duties to master service
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and that in its opinion
may
involve it in any expenses or liability; provided,
however,
that the
Master Servicer may in its sole discretion undertake any such action that it
may
deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and
duties of the parties hereto and the interests of 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 Collection Account it maintains as provided by Section
4.02.
167
Section
9.31. Indemnification; Third-Party Claims.
The
Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor and the Trustee,
and their respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates, and hold each
of them harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, liability, fees and expenses that the Depositor, the Sponsor or the
Trustee may sustain as a result of (a) any material breach by the Master
Servicer of any if its obligations hereunder, including particularly its
obligations to provide any reports under Section 9.25(a), Section 9.25(b),
Section 9.26 or any information, data or materials required to be included
in
any Exchange Act report, (b) any material misstatement or omission in any
information, data or materials provided by the Master Servicer, or (c) the
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Master Servicer in connection
with its performance hereunder, provided,
however,
that in
no event shall the Master Servicer be liable for any special, consequential,
indirect or punitive damages pursuant to this Section 9.31, even if advised
of
the possibility of such damages. The Depositor, the Sponsor and the Trustee
shall immediately notify the Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third
party
with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Depositor,
the Sponsor or the Trustee to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master
Servicer shall assume the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in
connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in
respect of such claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Master Servicer shall not settle any claim involving any of the
other parties hereto without such party’s prior written consent unless such
settlement involves a complete and absolute release of such party from any
and
all liability in connection with such claim. This indemnification shall survive
the termination of this Agreement or the termination of the Master Servicer
as a
party to this Agreement.
Section
9.32. Special Servicing of Delinquent Mortgage Loans.
If
permitted under the terms of a Servicing Agreement, the Seller may appoint,
pursuant to the terms of such Servicing Agreement and with the written consent
of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, a special Servicer (the
“Special Servicer”) to special service any Distressed Mortgage Loans. Any
applicable termination fee related to the termination of a Servicer and the
appointment of any Special Servicer shall be paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller
from its own funds, without right of reimbursement from the Trust Fund. Any
fees
paid to any such Special Servicer shall not exceed the Servicing Fee

REMIC
ADMINISTRATION
Section
10.01. REMIC Administration.
(a) As
set
forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto, the Trustee shall elect REMIC status
in accordance with the REMIC Provisions with respect to each of the REMICs.
The
Trustee shall make such elections on Forms 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. For the purposes of such
elections, each of the Interests in REMIC I, other than the Class LT-R
Certificate, is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC I; each of
the
interests in REMIC II, other than the Class R-2 Interest, is hereby designated
as a regular interest in REMIC II; and each Underlying REMIC Certificate and
each Certificate (other than the Exchange Certificates and the Exchangeable
Certificates, the Class P Components of the Class 12-A3 and Class 12-A8
Certificates, and the Class P, Class X, Class LT-R and Class R Certificates)
are
hereby designated as regular interests in REMIC III. In addition, the Class
R-2
Interest is hereby designated as the sole residual interest in REMIC II and
the
Class R Certificate evidences ownership of the Class R-2 Interest, and is also
hereby designated as the sole residual interest in REMIC III.
168
(b) The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC within the
meaning of section 86OG(a)(9) of the Code. The latest possible maturity date
for
purposes of Treasury Regulation 1.86OG-1(a)(4) will be the Latest Possible
Maturity Date.
(c) The
Trustee shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of
each
REMIC, including but not limited to any professional fees or expenses related
to
audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to 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 Trustee in
fulfilling its duties hereunder (including its duties as tax return preparer).
The Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent
provided in clause (i) above from the Certificate Account, provided,
however,
the
Trustee shall not be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in
connection with the preparation of tax returns and Form SS-4 as required by
Section 6.20 and this Section 10.01.
(d) The
Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of each REMIC’s federal and applicable
state tax and information returns as such REMIC’s direct representative. As used
in the previous sentence, “applicable state tax and information returns” shall
mean such returns as may be required by the laws of any state, the applicability
of which to the Trust Fund shall have been confirmed to the Trustee in writing
either (i) by the delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to such
effect, or (ii) by delivery to the Trustee of a written notification to such
effect by the taxing authority of such state. The expenses of preparing and
filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee. If any Disqualified
Organization acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, then
the
Trustee will upon request provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to the
persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, such information
as required in Section 860D(a)(6)(B) of the Code needed to compute the tax
imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code on transfers of residual interests
to
disqualified organizations. The Trustee shall be entitled to additional
compensation from such person for the cost of providing such
information.
169
(e) The
Trustee shall perform on behalf of each REMIC all reporting and other tax
compliance duties that are the responsibility of 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 Trustee
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 a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization
and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required
by the Code or the REMIC Provisions.
If,
after
the Closing Date, as a result of any changes to the Code, the REMIC Provisions,
or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any
state
or local taxing authority, the Trustee shall have additional duties or
obligations pursuant to this subsection (e), the Trustee shall be entitled
to
receive reasonable compensation for the performance of its duties under this
subsection (e); provided,
however,
that
such compensation shall not exceed $5,000 per year.
(f) The
Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall take any
action within their respective control and scope of its duties or cause each
REMIC to take any action necessary to create or maintain the status of such
REMIC 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 Master
Servicer or the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall take any action within
their respective control, cause any REMIC to take any action or fail to take
(or
fail to cause to be taken) any action within its control and in the scope of
its
duties that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case
may
be, could (i) endanger the status of any REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in
the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC (including but not limited to the tax
on
prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on
prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either
such
event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the Master Servicer have
received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take
such
action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such status
or result in the imposition of such a tax. In addition, prior to taking any
action with respect to any REMIC or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC
to
take any action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this
Agreement any Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee
and
the Master Servicer, or their respective designees, in writing, with respect
to
whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect
to
any REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause any REMIC
to
take any such action as to which the Trustee or the Master Servicer has advised
it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
(g) Each
Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed
on
the related REMIC by federal or state governmental authorities. To the extent
it
has actual knowledge that such taxes were not paid by a Residual
Certificateholder, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of
current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the Residual
Certificate in such REMIC or, if no such amounts are available, out of other
amounts held in the Certificate Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise
payable to holders of regular interests in such REMIC, as the case may
be.
170
(h) The
Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records
with
respect to each REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.
(i) No
additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to eligible substitute
mortgage loans.
(j) Neither
the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which
any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services.
(k) Upon
the
request of any Rating Agency, the Trustee shall deliver to such Rating Agency
an
Officer’s Certificate stating, without regard to any actions taken by any party
other than the Trustee, the Trustee’s compliance with the provisions of this
Section 10.01 applicable to it.
Section
10.02. Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
None
of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer or 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 each REMIC pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement,
(iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a repurchase
of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any
assets for any REMIC, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Certificate
Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC 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 (a) affect adversely the
status of such REMIC as a REMIC or of the Certificates, other than the Residual
and Class P Certificates, as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the
distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the
encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause such REMIC to be
subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.
Section
10.03. Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC
Status.
In
the
event that a REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC,
or
incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction
or
prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent
performance by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein,
the
Trustee shall indemnify the Holder of the Residual Certificate against any
and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from
such negligence; provided,
however,
that
the Trustee shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action
or inaction of the Master Servicer, a Servicer, the Depositor, or the Holder
of
such Residual Certificate, as applicable, or for any such Losses resulting
from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which
the
Trustee has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict
the
rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Trustee have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Trustee its duties
and
obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages
to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on
the
Certificates).
171
Section
10.04. REO Property.
(a) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, acting on behalf
of
the Trustee hereunder, shall not (except to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement) permit any Servicer to, rent, lease, or
otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property
which might cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure” property
within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt
by
any REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of
section 860F(a)(2) of the Code or any “net income from foreclosure property”
which is subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions unless the Master Servicer
has advised, or has caused the applicable Servicer to advise, the Trustee in
writing to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action would not
adversely affect the status of any REMIC as a REMIC and any income generated
for
any REMIC by the REO Property would not result in the imposition of a tax upon
such REMIC.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall make, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to make,
reasonable efforts to sell any REO Property for its fair market value. In any
event, however, the Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the applicable
Servicer to, dispose of any REO Property within three years from the end of
the
calendar year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Master Servicer
has received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to the
effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation
and under applicable state law, the REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer
period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing
the
imposition of a Federal or state tax upon such REMIC. If such an extension
has
been received, then (a) the Master Servicer shall provide a copy of such
extension to the Trustee and (b) the Master Servicer, acting on behalf of the
Trust Fund, shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, continue to
attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period
longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If
the Master Servicer has not received such an extension, or the Master Servicer
is acting on behalf of the Trust Fund hereunder, or the applicable Servicer
is
unable to sell the REO Property within 33 months after its acquisition by the
Trust Fund or if an extension has been received and the Master Servicer acting
on behalf of the Trust Fund hereunder, is unable to sell the REO Property within
the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the
Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, before the
end
of the three year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase
such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value or
(ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Master
Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to
the
expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may
be.

any manner the rights of the Holders; provided,
however,
that no
such amendment shall be made unless the Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel,
at the expense of the party requesting the change, that such change will not
cause an Adverse REMIC Event; and provided,
further,
that no
such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing
of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed
on
any Certificate, without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (ii)
reduce the aforesaid percentages of Class Principal Amount (or Class Notional
Amount or Percentage Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of
which are required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of
the
Holders of 100% of the Class Principal Amount (or Class Notional Amount) of

Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event but on or prior to a Trust Fund Termination
Event, this Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the

the consent of Holders pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee

REMIC Event.

after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee
shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each
Holder, the Depositor and to the Rating Agencies.
(e) It
shall
not be necessary for the consent of Holders under this Section 11.03 to approve
the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if
such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such
consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Holders
shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may
prescribe.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in any Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall not
consent to any amendment of any Servicing Agreement unless (i) such amendment
is
effected pursuant to the standards provided in Section 11.03(a) or Section
11.03(b) with respect to amendment of this Agreement and (ii) except for a
Permitted Servicing Amendment, any such amendment pursuant to Section
11.03(a)(iii) shall not be materially inconsistent with the provisions of such
Servicing Agreement as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the
Depositor.
174
(g) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 11.03, this Agreement may be amended
from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee to
the
extent necessary, in the judgment of the Depositor and its counsel, to comply
with the Rules.
(h) Prior
to
the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Trustee shall be entitled
to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel addressed to it stating that

execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which
affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Agreement.
Section
11.04. Voting Rights.
Except
to
the extent that the consent of all affected Certificateholders is required
pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to any provision of this Agreement
requiring the consent of Certificateholders representing specified percentages
of aggregate outstanding Certificate Principal Amount (or Notional Amount),

the
successor servicer of the source and proper application of each such payment
or
recovery; and (F) the Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the
effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue
to
cooperate with the successor servicer to facilitate such transfer in such manner
and to such extent as the successor servicer may reasonably
request.

(the “Transferor”) has reviewed the attached affidavit of
_____________________________ (the “Transferee”), and has no actual knowledge
that such affidavit is not true and has no reason to believe that the
information contained in paragraph 7 thereof is not true, and has no reason
to
believe that the Transferee has the intention to impede the assessment or
collection of any federal, state or local taxes legally required to be paid
with
respect to a Residual Certificate. In addition, the Transferor has conducted
a
reasonable investigation at the time of the transfer and found that the
Transferee had historically paid its debts as they came due and found no
significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay
its debts as they become due.

__________________
Date
Dear
Sirs:
In
connection with our proposed purchase of $______________ principal amount of
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-5 (the “Restricted
Certificates”) of Structured Asset Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”)
which are held in the form of Definitive Certificates, we confirm
that:
(1)
|
We
understand that the Restricted Certificates have not been, and will
not
be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and may not be sold except as permitted in the
following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of
any
accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we
should
sell any Restricted Certificates within two years of the later of
the date
of original issuance of the Restricted Certificates or the last day
on
which such Restricted Certificates are owned by the Depositor or
any
affiliate of the Depositor (which includes the Placement Agent) we
will do
so only (A) to the Depositor, (B) to “qualified institutional buyers”
(within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act) in accordance
with Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“QIBs”), (C) pursuant to the
exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities
Act,
or (D) to an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities
Act
that is not a QIB (an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) which, prior to
such transfer, delivers to the Trustee under the Trust
Agreement dated as of May 1, 2007, (the “Trust Agreement”), among
Structured Asset Securities Corporation, as Depositor, Aurora Loan
Services LLC, as Master Servicer, and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as
Trustee,
a
signed letter in the form of this letter; and we further agree, in
the
capacities stated above, to provide to any person purchasing any
of the
Restricted Certificates from us a notice advising such purchaser
that
resales of the Restricted Certificates are restricted as stated
herein.
|
(2)
|
We
understand that, in connection with any proposed resale of any Restricted
Certificates to an Institutional Accredited Investor, we will be
required
to furnish to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor a certification
from such transferee in the form hereof to confirm that the proposed
sale
is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction
not
subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
We
further understand that the Restricted Certificates purchased by
us will
bear a legend to the foregoing
effect.
|
G-1
(3)
|
We
are acquiring the Restricted Certificates for investment purposes
and not
with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution
in violation of the Securities Act and, in the case of the Class
P
Certificates, not as a middleman as that term is defined in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.671-5(b)(10). We have such knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating
the
merits and risks of our investment in the Restricted Certificates,
and we
and any account for which we are acting are each able to bear the
economic
risk of such investment.
|
(4)
|
We
are an Institutional Accredited Investor and we are acquiring the
Restricted Certificates purchased by us for our own account or for
one or
more accounts (each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor)
as
to each of which we exercise sole investment
discretion.
|
(5)
|
We
have received such information as we deem necessary in order to make
our
investment decision.
|
(6)
|
If
we are acquiring ERISA-Restricted Certificates, we understand that
in
accordance with ERISA, the Code and the Exemption, no Plan and no
person
acting on behalf of such a Plan may acquire such Certificate except
in
accordance with Section 3.03(d) of the Trust
Agreement.
|
Terms
used in this letter which are not otherwise defined herein have the respective
meanings assigned thereto in the Trust Agreement.

The
Certificate Registrar and the Depositor are entitled to rely upon this letter
and are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any
interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry
