The Class R Certificates will be the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein). The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Pass-Through Rate, the Initial Certificate Principal Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the Classes of Certificates that evidence “regular interests” or “residual interests” in REMIC I.

CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;

ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.

The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse for the benefit of the Certificateholders all the right, title and interest of the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (except Section 18 thereof), and all other assets included or to be included in REMIC I. Such assignment includes all interest and principal received by the Depositor or the Master Servicer on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due on such Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date). The Depositor herewith delivers to the Trustee or a Custodian on its behalf an executed copy of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee or a Custodian on its behalf, the following documents or instruments (a “Mortgage File”) with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and assigned:

(i)         The Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or facsimile signature without recourse by the Originator or an Affiliate of the Originator in blank or to the Trustee showing a complete chain of endorsements from the named payee to the Trustee or from the named payee to the Affiliate of the Originator and from such Affiliate to the Trustee;

(ii)         The original recorded Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the Mortgage certified by the public recording office in those jurisdictions where the public recording office retains the original;

(iii)        Unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System, an assignment to the Trustee in recordable form of the Mortgage which may be included, where permitted by local law, in a blanket assignment or assignments of the Mortgage to the Trustee, including any intervening assignments and showing a complete chain of title from the original mortgagee named under the Mortgage to the Person assigning the Mortgage Loan to the Trustee (or to MERS, noting the presence of the MIN, if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System);

(iv)        Any original assumption, modification, buydown or conversion-to- fixed-interest-rate agreement applicable to the Mortgage Loan;

(v)        With respect to any Mortgage Loan listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as subject to a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, the original Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or certificate or a copy thereof; and

(vi)        The original or a copy of the title insurance policy (which may be a certificate or a short form policy relating to a master policy of title insurance) pertaining to the Mortgaged Property, or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a copy of the preliminary title report and the lender’s recording instructions, with the original to be delivered within 180 days of the Closing Date or an attorney’s opinion of title in jurisdictions where such is the customary evidence of title.

In instances where an original recorded Mortgage cannot be delivered by the Depositor to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, due to a delay in connection with the recording of such Mortgage, the Depositor may, (a) in lieu of delivering such original recorded Mortgage referred to in clause (ii) above, deliver to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) a copy thereof, provided that the Depositor certifies that the original Mortgage has been delivered to a title insurance company for recordation after receipt of its policy of title insurance or binder therefor (which may be a certificate relating to a master policy of title insurance), and (b) in lieu of delivering the completed assignment in recordable form referred to in clause (iii) above to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), deliver such assignment to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) completed except for recording information. In all such instances, the Depositor will deliver the original recorded Mortgage and completed assignment (if applicable) to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) promptly upon receipt of such Mortgage. In instances where an original recorded Mortgage has been lost or misplaced, the Depositor or the related title insurance company may deliver, in lieu of such Mortgage, a copy of such Mortgage bearing recordation information and certified as true and correct by the office in which recordation thereof was made. In instances where the original or a copy of the title insurance policy referred to in clause (vi) above (which may be a certificate relating to a master policy of title insurance) pertaining to the Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan cannot be delivered by the Depositor to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement because such policy is not yet available, the Depositor may, in lieu of delivering the original or a copy of such title insurance referred to in clause (vi) above, deliver to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) a binder with respect to such policy (which may be a certificate relating to a master policy of title insurance) and deliver the original or a copy of such policy (which may be a certificate relating to a master policy of title insurance) to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) within 180 days of the Closing Date, in instances where an original assumption, modification, buydown or conversion-to-fixed- interest-rate agreement cannot be delivered by the Depositor to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor may, in lieu of delivering the original of such agreement referred to in clause (iv) above, deliver a certified copy thereof.

To the extent not already recorded, except with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as the mortgagee of record, the Master Servicer, at the expense of the Seller shall promptly (and in no event later than five Business Days following the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Master Servicer of the recording information for a Mortgage) submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to any Trust REMIC, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment delivered to it pursuant to

(iii) above. In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Master Servicer, at the expense of the Seller, shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but without limiting the requirement that such Assignments be in recordable form, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be required to submit or cause to be submitted for recording any Assignment delivered to it or a Custodian pursuant to (iii) above if such recordation shall not, as of the Closing Date, be required by the Rating Agencies, as a condition to their assignment on the Closing Date of their initial ratings to the Certificates, as evidenced by the delivery by the Rating Agencies of their ratings letters on the Closing Date; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall submit each Assignment for recording, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Master Servicer, upon the earliest to occur of: (A) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (B) the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Termination, (C) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (D) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 of this Agreement and (E) with respect to any one Assignment the occurrence of a foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller fails to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense will be paid by the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall be reimbursed for such expenses by the Trust as set forth herein.

In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS System, the Depositor further agrees that it will cause, within 30 Business Days after the Closing Date, the MERS System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Depositor to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including in such computer files (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Depositor further agrees that it will not, and will not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not and will not permit a Sub-Servicer to, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

With respect to a maximum of approximately 5.00% of the Original Mortgage Loans, by outstanding principal balance of the Original Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, if any original Mortgage Note referred to in (i) above cannot be located, the obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) of a photocopy of such Mortgage Note, if available, with a lost note affidavit. If any of the original Mortgage Notes for which a lost note affidavit was delivered to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) is subsequently located, such original Mortgage Note shall be delivered to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) within three Business Days.

The Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but

not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan.

All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. In the event that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee). Any such original document delivered to or held by the Depositor that is not required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, shall be delivered promptly to the Master Servicer.

Wherever it is provided in this Section 2.01 that any document, evidence or information relating to a Mortgage Loan be delivered or supplied to the Trustee, the Depositor shall do so by delivery thereof to the Trustee or Custodian on behalf of the Trustee.

It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan to be included in the Trust Fund be (i) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, (ii) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a "High-Cost Home Mortgage Loan" as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) a "High Cost Home Loan" as defined in the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act effective January 1, 2005.

SECTION 2.02 Acceptance of the Trust Fund by the Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on an exception report delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Sections 2.01(iv)) and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt, subject to the review described in the succeeding sentence, of the documents and other property referred to in Section 2.01 and declares that the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) holds and will hold such documents and other property, including property yet to be received in the Trust Fund, in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 90 days after execution and delivery of this Agreement, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans. If in the course of such review the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective in any material respect, the Trustee or the

Custodian on its behalf shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Seller, the Master Servicer and, if such notice is from the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf, the Trustee. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.

The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

The Trustee may, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof or at any time thereafter, enter into a custodial agreement with a Custodian pursuant to which the Trustee appoints a Custodian to hold the Mortgage Files on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and all present and future Certificateholders, which may provide that the Custodian shall, on behalf of the Trustee, conduct the review of each Mortgage File required under the first paragraph of this Section 2.02. Initially, Citibank West, FSB is appointed as Custodian with respect to the Mortgage Files of all the Mortgage Loans and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood that such initial Custodian shall be responsible for the review contemplated in the second paragraph of this Section 2.02 and for all other functions relating to the receipt, review, reporting and certification provided for herein with respect to the Mortgage Files (other than ownership thereof for the benefit of the Certificateholders and related duties and obligations set forth herein).

SECTION 2.03 Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Seller or the Depositor.

(a)        Upon discovery or receipt of notice by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the party so discovering or receiving notice shall promptly notify the other parties to this Agreement, and the Trustee thereupon shall promptly notify the Seller of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee

shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (i) to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified (subject to Section 2.03(e)) of such missing document, defect or breach, and (ii) to indemnify the Trust Fund in respect of such missing document, defect or breach, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), if and to the extent that the Seller is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan and any indemnification shall be remitted by the Seller to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, and the Trust Administrator, upon receipt of written notice from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall give written notice to the Trustee that such deposit has taken place and the Trustee shall release (or cause the Custodian to release on its behalf) to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Seller is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS System, the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS System in accordance with MERS rules and regulations. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC I (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d). It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing, and if and to the extent provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to perform any applicable indemnification obligations with respect to any such omission, defect or breach, as provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, shall constitute the only remedies respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee or the Trust Administrator on behalf of the Certificateholders.

(b) Reserved.

(c)        Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.

(d)        Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior to the date which is two years after the Startup Day for REMIC I.

As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering to

the Trustee (or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable), for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment in blank or to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an Officers’ Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Shortfall Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The Custodian on its behalf and on behalf of the Trustee shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 90 days after execution and delivery of this Agreement, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans. If in the course of such review the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective in any material respect, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Seller and the Master Servicer. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Mortgage Loan on or before the Due Date in the month of substitution, and the Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Trust Administrator shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Trustee and the Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, and the Trust Administrator shall amend or cause the Custodian to amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, upon receipt thereof, shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Master Servicer. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the mortgage pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (including all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), in each case as of the date of substitution.

For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will determine the amount (the “Substitution Shortfall Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such Scheduled Principal Balance at the applicable Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Trustee will monitor the obligation of the Seller to deliver or cause to be delivered, and shall request that such delivery be to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, an amount equal to the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any, and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable), upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and written notice given by the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any Trust REMIC, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code, or (b) any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.

(e)        Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement, and the Trustee shall give written notice thereof to the Seller. In connection therewith, the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or substitution shall be made by (i) the Seller if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is or results from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or (iii) the Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is a breach of no representation or warranty. Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Sections 2.03(a). The Trustee shall reconvey to the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Seller for breach of a representation or warranty.

SECTION 2.04 Reserved.

(viii)      The Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer servicing the Mortgage Loans on its behalf) is a member of MERS in good standing, and will comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS.

It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or to the Custodian on its behalf and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and the Certificateholders. Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants which materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice (but in no event later than two Business Days following such discovery) to the Trustee. Subject to Section 7.01, the obligation of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.03(c) to cure breaches shall constitute the sole remedies against the Master Servicer available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders respecting a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 2.05.

SECTION 2.06 Issuance of the Certificates.

Concurrently with such assignment and delivery of such assets delivered on the date hereof and in exchange therefor, the Paying Agent, pursuant to the written request of the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, has executed, and the Authenticating Agent has authenticated and delivered, to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in authorized denominations.

The Trustee acknowledges receipt of REMIC I and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Class R Certificateholders and the Holders of the Regular Certificates evidencing interests in REMIC I. The rights of the Class R Certificateholders and the Holders of the Regular Certificates evidencing interests in REMIC I to receive distributions from the proceeds of REMIC I, and all ownership interests evidenced or constituted by the Class R Certificates and the Regular Certificates evidencing interests in REMIC I, shall be as set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

SECTION 3.01 Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (as determined by the Master Servicer in its reasonable judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner in which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but without regard to:

(i)         any relationship that the Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;

(ii)         the ownership of any Certificate by the Master Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer;

(iii)        the Master Servicer’s obligation to make P&I Advances or Servicing Advances; or

(iv)        the Master Servicer’s or any Sub-Servicer’s right to receive compensation for its services hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction.

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall also seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes. Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, and upon notice to the Trustee, 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 the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Trustee and Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby. The Master Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under each Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and any standard hazard insurance policy. Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of the Master Servicer, and furnish to the Master Servicer and any Sub-Servicer such documents as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee hereby grants to the Master Servicer a power of attorney to carry out such duties. The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.

In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or by Sub- Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.

The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Sub-Servicer, when the Master Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, 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. Any reasonable expenses (i) incurred as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS System or (ii) if the affected Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence, shall be subject to withdrawal by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.03) and the Master Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan (except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable) that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the principal balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions after the startup date” under the REMIC Provisions.

The Master Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such delegation shall release the Master Servicer from the responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall accurately and fully report (or cause each Sub-Servicer to accurately and fully report), its borrower credit files to each of the credit repositories in a timely manner.

SECTION 3.02 Sub-Servicing Agreements Between the Master Servicer and Sub-Servicers.

(a)        The Master Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements (provided that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by the Rating Agencies of the rating on any Class of Certificates) with Sub-Servicers, for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans. As of the Cut-Off Date, Xxxxx Fargo is the Sub-Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans originated by Xxxxx Fargo and in such capacity Xxxxx Fargo will be primarily responsible for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans. As of the Cut-Off Date, National City is the Sub-Servicer with respect to the National City Mortgage Loans and in such capacity National City will be primarily responsible for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans.

(b)        Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement, (ii) an institution approved as a mortgage loan originator by the Federal Housing Administration or an institution the deposit accounts of which are insured by the FDIC and (iii) a Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Xxx approved mortgage servicer.

Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 and provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Master Servicer will examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub- Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Master Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Master Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.

(c)        As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub- Servicing Agreement, or to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a). Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-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 only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, 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.

SECTION 3.03 Successor Sub-Servicers.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Sub-Servicer pursuant to any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement. In the event of termination of any Sub-Servicer, all servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer shall be assumed simultaneously by the Master Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such Sub-Servicer or the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer either shall service directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.

Any Sub-Servicing Agreement (other than any Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement) shall include the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Master Servicer shall, for any reason, no longer be the Master Servicer (including termination due to a Master Servicer Event of Default).

SECTION 3.04 Liability of the Master Servicer.

Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub- Servicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

SECTION 3.05 No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers and Trustee, Trust Administrator or Certificateholders.

Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Master Servicer alone, and the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section 3.06. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.

SECTION 3.06 Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Trustee.

In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the master servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Master Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer for the Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to each Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Sub-Servicing

Agreement and (ii) none of the Trustee, its designee or any successor Master Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Master Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub- Servicing Agreements to the assuming party.

SECTION 3.07 Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.

The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and any other applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing and the servicing standards set forth in Section 3.01, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, penalty interest, only upon determining that the coverage of such Mortgage Loan by the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, will not be affected, or (ii) extend the due dates for Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.03 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Master Servicer, consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a “Short Pay-off”) or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor, if in the Master Servicer’s determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action).

SECTION 3.08 Sub-Servicing Accounts.

In those cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer will be required to establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the “Sub-Servicing Account”). The Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall comply with all requirements of this Agreement relating to the Collection Account (provided, however, that in the case of each Initial Sub-Servicing

Agreement, the applicable Sub-Servicing Account shall comply with all requirements of the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement relating to the custodial account provided for therein). The Sub-Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Sub-Servicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account. The Sub-Servicer shall thereafter remit such proceeds to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account (or, in the case of the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, at such time as is required pursuant to the terms of the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement). For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Sub-Servicer receives such payments.

SECTION 3.09 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts.

The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain (or cause a Sub-Servicer to establish and maintain) one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of ground rents, taxes, assessments, fire and hazard insurance premiums, Primary Mortgage Insurance Premiums, water charges, sewer rents and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) shall be deposited and retained. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Master Servicer (or the applicable Sub-Servicer) shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Master Servicer’s (or the applicable Sub-Servicer’s) receipt thereof, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Servicing Accounts, in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds in the clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of Escrow Payments; (ii) reimburse the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account; (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of the Master Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX; or (vi) recover amounts deposited in error. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Master Servicer shall determine

whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure of a tax lien. The Master Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

SECTION 3.10 Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)        On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more separate, segregated trust accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Master Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments and collections received or made by it from and after the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date), or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto:

(i)         all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;

(ii)         all payments on account of interest (net of the related Servicing Fee and the related Administration Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;

(iii)        all Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation Proceeds (other than proceeds collected in respect of any particular REO Property and amounts paid by the Master Servicer in connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01);

(iv)        any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account;

(v)        any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any blanket policy deductibles;

(vi)        all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 9.01; and

(vii)       all amounts required to be deposited in connection with shortfalls in principal amount of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.03.

For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Cut-off Date with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be the date of substitution.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges or assumption fees need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account. In the event the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b)        On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain one or more separate, segregated trust accounts (such account or accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Paying Agent in immediately available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account on or before 12:00 p.m. New York time (i) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Distribution Amount (calculated without regard to the subtraction therefrom of the Credit Risk Manager fee or of any amounts described in clause (ii)(a) of the definition thereof) for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account, and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following any withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess, but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account.” If the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account,” the Master Servicer shall, on or before 12:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day, withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Seller or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.

(c)        Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Depositor of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof. The Paying Agent shall give notice to the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when established and prior to any change thereof.

(d)        Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be delivered by the Master Servicer to the Paying Agent on behalf of the Trust Administrator for deposit in an account (which may be the Distribution Account and must satisfy the standards for the Distribution Account as set forth in the definition thereof) and for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part of the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Paying Agent

shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds held pursuant to this subsection (d). In the event the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Paying Agent withdraw such amount from the Distribution Account and remit to it any such amount, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In addition, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Paying Agent from time to time for deposit, and upon written notification from the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account:

(i) any P&I Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.03;

(ii)         any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.23(d) or (f) in connection with any REO Property;

(iii)        any amounts to be paid by the Master Servicer in connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01;

(iv)        any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.24 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls; and

(v)        any Stayed Funds, as soon as permitted by the federal bankruptcy court having jurisdiction in such matters.

(e)        Promptly upon receipt of any Stayed Funds, whether from the Master Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy, or federal bankruptcy court or other source, the Paying Agent shall deposit such funds in the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal thereof as permitted hereunder.

(f)         The Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account.

SECTION 3.11 Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)        The Master Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in Section 4.03:

(i)         to remit to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);

(ii)         subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Master Servicer for P&I Advances, but only to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees and Administration Fees) of Monthly Payments on Mortgage Loans with respect to which such P&I Advances were made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03;

(iii)        subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Master Servicer or any Sub- Servicer (A) any unpaid Servicing Fees and unpaid Administration Fees, (B) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or other amounts as may be collected by the Master Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (C) any nonrecoverable Servicing Advances following the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent that Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for such Servicing Advances;

(iv)        to pay to the Master Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee and the Administration Fee) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account;

(v)        to pay to the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be;

(vi)        to reimburse the Master Servicer for any P&I Advance previously made which the Master Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03;

(vii)       to reimburse the Master Servicer or the Depositor for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03;

(viii)      to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 or Section 2.04 of this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation;

(ix)        to pay, or to reimburse the Master Servicer for advances in respect of expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(b);

(x) [reserved]; and

(xi)        to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9.01.

The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection

Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above. The Master Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Paying Agent, on or prior to the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vii) above.

(b)        The Paying Agent shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes, without priority:

(i)         to make distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01;

(ii)         to pay to itself any interest income earned on funds deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.12(c);

(iii)        to reimburse the Trust Administrator or the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02;

(iv)	to pay any amounts in respect of taxes pursuant to 10.01(g)(iii);
(v)	to pay any Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses;

(vi)        to reimburse the Paying Agent or the Trustee for any P&I Advance made by it under Section 7.01 (if not reimbursed by the Master Servicer) to the same extent the Master Servicer would be entitled to reimbursement under Section 3.11(a); and

(vii)       to clear and terminate the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 9.01.

SECTION 3.12 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account.

(a)        The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”), and the Paying Agent may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, also an “Investment Account”), to hold the funds in such Investment Account uninvested or to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments specified in such instruction bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Paying Agent is the obligor thereon, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Paying Agent is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trust Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account and the Distribution

Account and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trust Administrator or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trust Administrator or its nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Trust Administrator shall:

(x)	consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y)	demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b)        All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer, shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11. The Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.

(c)        All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account held by or on behalf of the Paying Agent, shall be for the benefit of the Paying Agent and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time. The Paying Agent shall deposit in the Distribution Account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.

(d)        Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(a)(v), upon the request of the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

SECTION 3.13 Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies; Collections Thereunder.

The Master Servicer will maintain or cause the related Sub-Servicer, if any, to maintain in full force and effect, if required under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and to the extent available, a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy with respect to each Mortgage Loan

so insured as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, on the date of substitution). Such coverage will be maintained with respect to each such Mortgage Loan for so long as it is outstanding, subject to any applicable laws or until the related Loan-to-Value Ratio is reduced to less than or equal to 80% based on Mortgagor payments. The Master Servicer shall cause the premium for each Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy to be paid on a timely basis and shall pay such premium out of its own funds if it is not otherwise paid. The Master Servicer or the related Sub-Servicer, if any, will not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy in effect on the Closing Date (or, in the case of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, on the date of substitution) that is required to be kept in force under this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a Qualified Insurer.

The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Sub-Servicer to take, any action which would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under each Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy. In connection with any assumption and modification agreement or substitution of liability agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 3.15, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption in accordance with the terms of such policies and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy. If any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption, the Master Servicer or the related Sub-Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy as provided above.

In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policies and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11; and any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy in respect of any REO Property shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23. In those cases in which a Mortgage Loan is serviced by a Sub-Servicer, the Sub-Servicer, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, and the Certificateholders, will present claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and all collections thereunder shall be deposited initially in the Sub-Servicing Account.

SECTION 3.14 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.

(a)        The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage on the related Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to the least of (i) the current principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) the

amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such Mortgaged Property, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. The Master Servicer shall also cause to be maintained fire insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO Property, plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Rate and related Servicing Advances. The Master Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Master Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Master Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the Master Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of A:X or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.

(b)        The Master Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for failure in the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement, which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage Loans, unless the Master Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Master Servicer shall also maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that would meet the requirements of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, unless the Master Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee (upon the Trustee’s reasonable request) with copies of any such insurance policies and fidelity bond. The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Master Servicer has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Master Servicer. Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Trustee. The Master Servicer shall also cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a policy of insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet such requirements.

SECTION 3.15 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

The Master Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any. If the Master Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Master Servicer will enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Master Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Master Servicer. In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Master Servicer shall apply such underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it. The Master Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or hazard insurance policy, or a new policy meeting the requirements of this Section is obtained. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer in respect of an assumption or substitution of liability agreement will be retained

by the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Custodian (with a copy to the Trustee) the executed original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Master Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

SECTION 3.16 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a)        The Master Servicer shall, consistent with the servicing standard set forth in Section 3.01, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Master Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.11 and Section 3.23. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses.

(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.16 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Certificateholders would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in- possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Master Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared

by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:

(1)        such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and

(2)        there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.23 shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.

If the Master Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Master Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund. The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.

(c) [Reserved].

(d)        Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and P&I Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii)(B); second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. If the amount of the recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such

recovery will be allocated by the Master Servicer as follows: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees and Administration Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing. The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees and unpaid Administration Fees shall be reimbursed to the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii)(A).

SECTION 3.17 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

(a)        Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will immediately notify the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, by a certification in the form of Exhibit E (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request that the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, deliver to it the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer is authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such Mortgage, if applicable, and to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution Account.

The Trustee (or a Custodian on its behalf) shall, at the written request and expense of any Certificateholder, provide a written report to such Certificateholder of all Mortgage Files released to the Master Servicer for servicing purposes.

(b)        From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or any other insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer and delivery to the Custodian and the Trustee of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E-l, release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, at the direction of the Master Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such Request for Release shall obligate the Master Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered 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 to the Custodian, on behalf of 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. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so

deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, to the Master Servicer.

(c)        Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale.

SECTION 3.18 Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for the activities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and the Administration Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 3.24. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees and unpaid Administration Fees out of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii)(A) and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.23. The right to receive the Servicing Fee and the Administration Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges and other similar fees and charges shall be retained by the Master Servicer (subject to Section 3.24) only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account, and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.12 and Section 3.24. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including premiums due under the Primary Insurance Policies, if any, premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a Sub-Servicer, servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer, and to the extent provided herein in Section 8.05, the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.

SECTION 3.19 Reports to the Trust Administrator; Collection Account Statements.

Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall forward to the Trust Administrator and the Trustee, upon the request of the Trust Administrator

or the Trustee, a statement prepared by the Master Servicer setting forth the status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on the last day of the calendar month relating to such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11. Such statement may be in the form of the then current Xxxxxx Mae Monthly Accounting Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Program with appropriate additions and changes, and shall also include information as to the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trust Administrator to the Certificates Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall provide the same to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Certificate Registrar as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon the request and at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trust Administrator and by the Trust Administrator to the Certificate Registrar.

SECTION 3.20 Statement as to Compliance.

The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and the Rating Agencies on or before March 15 of each year, commencing in 2006, an Officer’s Certificate, certifying that with respect to the period ending December 31 of the prior year: (i) such Servicing Officer has reviewed the activities of such Master Servicer during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof and its performance under this Agreement, (ii) to the best of such Servicing Officer’s knowledge, based on such review, such Master Servicer has performed and fulfilled its duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying each such default known to such Servicing Officer and the nature and status thereof, (iii) nothing has come to the attention of such Servicing Officer to lead such Servicing Officer to believe that any Servicer has failed to perform any of its duties, responsibilities and obligations under its Servicing Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a material default in the performance or fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying each such default known to such Servicing Officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of such statements shall be provided to any Certificateholder upon request, by the Trust Administrator at the Master Servicer’s expense.

SECTION 3.21 Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.

The Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and the Rating Agencies on or before March 15 of each year, commencing in 2006 to the effect that, with respect to the most recently ended fiscal year, such firm has examined certain records and documents relating to the Master Servicer’s performance of its servicing obligations under this Agreement and pooling and servicing and trust agreements in material respects similar to this Agreement and to each other and that, on the basis of such examination conducted substantially in compliance with the audit program for mortgages serviced for Xxxxxxx Mac or the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such

firm is of the opinion that the Master Servicer’s activities have been conducted in compliance with this Agreement, or that such examination has disclosed no material items of noncompliance except for (i) such exceptions as such firm believes to be immaterial, (ii) such other exceptions as are set forth in such statement and (iii) such exceptions that the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages Serviced by Xxxxxxx Mac requires it to report. Copies of such statements shall be provided to any Certificateholder upon request by the Trust Administrator at the expense of the Master Servicer. If such report discloses exceptions that are material, the Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee whether such exceptions have been or are susceptible of cure, and if susceptible of cure will take prompt action to cure.

SECTION 3.22 Access to Certain Documentation.

The Master Servicer shall provide to the Office of the Controller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations will be provided to such Certificateholder, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and to any Person identified to the Master Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access.

SECTION 3.23 Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

(a)        The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall either sell any REO Property before the close of the third taxable year following the year the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the above three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of the above three-year grace period, unless the Master Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third taxable year after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on the Trust Fund of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The Master Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not 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 Trust REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.

(b)        The Master Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the “REO Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall be permitted to allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO Property. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.

(c)        The Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the manner in which the Master Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders. In connection therewith, the Master Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Master Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account, in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, all revenues received by it with respect to an REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of such REO Property including, without limitation:

(i)         all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii)         all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; and

(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if, the Master Servicer would make such advances if the Master Servicer owned the REO Property and if in the Master Servicer’s judgment, the payment of such amounts will be recoverable from the rental or sale of the REO Property.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee shall:

(i)         authorize the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)         authorize any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)        authorize any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv)        authorize any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the Trust Fund;

unless, in any such case, the Master Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided to the Trust Administrator and the Trustee, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by the Trust Fund, in which case the Master Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

The Master Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:

(i)         the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith;

(ii)         any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed above and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Master Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;

(iii)        none of the provisions of this Section 3.23(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Master Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(iv)        the Master Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer’s compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees.

(d)        In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees of Administration Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and P&I Advances made in respect of such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan. Any income from the related REO Property received during any calendar months prior to a Final Recovery Determination, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this Section 3.23(d), shall be withdrawn by the Master Servicer from each REO Account maintained by it and remitted to the Paying Agent for deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date relating to a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage Loan, for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01.

(e)        Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.23(a), and further subject to obtaining the approval of the insurer under any related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy (if and to the extent that such approvals are necessary to make claims under such policies in respect of the affected REO Property), each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Master Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Master Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general servicing activities for similar properties.

(f)         The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount required by law to be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan and net of any payment or reimbursement to the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as provided above, shall be remitted to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(g)        The Master Servicer shall file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code, respectively. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code.

SECTION 3.24 Obligations of the Master Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.

The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Paying Agent for deposit into the Distribution Account on or before 12:00 p.m. New York time on the Master Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds (or from a Sub-Servicer’s own funds received by the Master Servicer in respect of Compensating Interest) an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date resulting from full or partial Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the applicable Compensating Interest Payment.

SECTION 3.25 Obligations of the Master Servicer in Respect of Monthly Payments.

In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to Stated Principal Balances that were made by the Master Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Master Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and any successor master servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement. If amounts paid by the Master Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.25 are subsequently recovered from the related Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall be permitted to reimburse itself for such amounts paid by it pursuant to this Section 3.25 from such recoveries.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS

SECTION 4.01 Distributions.

(a)        (1)        On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent, in accordance with calculations and determinations made by the Trust Administrator as reflected in the statement to Certificateholders prepared by the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 4.02, shall, first, withdraw from the Distribution Account an amount equal to the Credit Risk Manager Fee for such Distribution Date and shall pay such amount to the Credit Risk Manager and, second, withdraw from the Distribution Account an amount equal to the related Available Distribution Amount and shall distribute the following amounts, in the following order of priority, from the Available Distribution Amount or Available Distribution Amounts:

(i)         in the case of the Available Distribution Amount or Available Distribution Amounts, concurrently, to the Holders of the Class A Certificates, and on the first Distribution Date, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates, the Interest Distribution Amount for each such Class for such Distribution Date, on a pro rata basis based on the entitlement of each such Class to such interest;

(ii)         in the case of the remaining Available Distribution Amount, first, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates, and then to the Holders of the Class A Certificates, to the extent of the Senior Principal Distribution Amount for such Classes of Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balances of such Classes, on a pro rata basis based on their respective Certificate Principal Balances, until the Certificate Principal Balance of each such Class has been reduced to zero;

(iii)        in the case of the remaining Available Distribution Amount or Available Distribution Amounts, to the Holders of the Subordinate Certificates, the Interest Distribution Amount for each such Class for such Distribution Date, distributable to the Holders of the Subordinate Certificates in the order of priority from the Class of such

Subordinate Certificates with the lowest numerical designation to the Class of such Subordinate Certificates with the highest numerical designation;

(iv)        in the case of the remaining Available Distribution Amount or Available Distribution Amounts, to the Holders of the related Subordinate Certificates, an aggregate amount equal to the Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, allocable among the Classes of Subordinate Certificates in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balances thereof pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts payable as to each such Class pursuant to the priorities and amounts set forth in Section 4.01(b)(i); and

(v) to the Holders of the related Residual Certificates, any remaining amounts.

Immediately prior to the distributions to the Holders of the Certificates on each Distribution Date, any adjustments to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Certificates required by this paragraph shall be made. An amount equal to the lesser of (x) the amount of Subsequent Recoveries included in the Available Funds for such Distribution Date and (y) the aggregate amount of Realized Losses, other than Excess Bankruptcy Losses, Excess Fraud Losses, Excess Special Hazard Losses and Extraordinary Losses, previously allocated to the Certificates and that remain “outstanding” as set forth below shall be applied as follows: first, to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the highest payment priority to which such Realized Losses were previously allocated, to the extent of any such Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class and remaining “outstanding” second, to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next highest payment priority to which such Realized Losses were previously allocated, to the extent of any such Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class and remaining “outstanding” and so forth. For purposes of the foregoing, with respect to any Class of Certificates, the amount of previously allocated Realized Losses that have been offset by an increase in Certificate Principal Balance as provided above shall be deemed no longer “outstanding” but not by more than the amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04. Holders of any Class of Certificates with respect to which there shall have been a Certificate Principal Balance increase pursuant to this paragraph will not be entitled to any distribution in respect of interest on the amount of such increase for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal Balance of each Certificate of such Class in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.

(2)        All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class prior to the allocation of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses and Realized Losses, in each case allocated to such Class of Certificates, on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.04.

(b)  (i)   On each Distribution Date, the aggregate distributions of principal made on such date in respect of the Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(1)(iv) above shall be applied among the various Classes thereof, in the order of priority from the Class of Subordinate Certificates with the lowest numerical designation to the Class of Subordinate Certificates with the highest numerical designation, in each case to the extent of remaining

available funds up to the amount allocable to such Class for such Distribution Date and in each case until the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero, in an amount with respect to each such Class equal to the sum of (X) the related Class B Percentage of the amounts described in clauses (i) through (v) of clause (a) of the definition of Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount, (Y) the portion of the amounts described in clauses (b), (c) and (e) of the definition of Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount allocable to such Class pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(ii) below and (Z) the excess, if any, of the amount required to be distributed to such Class pursuant to this Section 4.01(b)(i) for the immediately preceding Distribution Date, over the aggregate distributions of principal made in respect of such Class of Certificates on such immediately preceding Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 to the extent that any such excess is not attributable to Realized Losses which were allocated to Subordinate Certificates with a lower priority pursuant to Section 4.04.

(ii)         On any Distribution Date, the portion of (a) all net Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds with respect to any Mortgage Loans that were the subject of a Final Recovery Determination in the related Prepayment Period and (b) all Principal Prepayments received in respect of the Mortgage Loans in the related Prepayment Period, allocable to principal and not included in the Senior Principal Distribution Amount, will be allocated on a pro rata basis among the following Classes of Subordinate Certificates (each, an “Eligible Class”) in proportion to the respective outstanding Certificate Principal Balances thereof: (i) the Class B-1 Certificates, (ii) the Class B-2 Certificates, if on such Distribution Date the aggregate percentage interest evidenced by the Class B-2 Certificates, the Class B-3 Certificates, the Class B-4 Certificates, the Class B-5 Certificates and the Class B-6 Certificates equals or exceeds 1.80% before giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date, (iii) the Class B-3 Certificates, if on such Distribution Date the aggregate percentage interest evidenced by the Class B-3 Certificates, the Class B-4 Certificates, the Class B-5 Certificates and the Class B-6 Certificates equals or exceeds 1.20% before giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date, (iv) the Class B-4 Certificates, if on such Distribution Date the aggregate percentage interest evidenced by the Class B-4 Certificates, the Class B-5 Certificates and the Class B-6 Certificates equals or exceeds 0.80% before giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date, (v) the Class B-5 Certificates, if on such Distribution Date the aggregate percentage interest evidenced by the Class B-5 Certificates and the Class B-6 Certificates equals or exceeds 0.45% before giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date and (vi) the Class B-6 Certificates, if on such Distribution Date the percentage interest evidenced by the Class B-6 Certificates equals or exceeds 0.20% before giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date. If any of the foregoing Certificates is not an Eligible Class, any amounts allocable to principal and distributable pursuant to this Section 4.01(b)(ii) will be distributed among the Certificates that are Eligible Classes in the manner set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the application of the foregoing on any Distribution Date as provided in Section 4.01 would result in a distribution in respect of principal to any Class or Classes of Subordinate Certificates in an amount greater than the remaining Certificate Principal Balance thereof (any such Class, a “Maturing Class”) then: (a) the amount to be allocated to each Maturing Class shall be reduced to a level that, when applied as described above, would exactly reduce the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class to zero and (b) the total amount of the reduction in the amount to be allocated to the Maturing Class or Classes shall be allocated among the remaining related Eligible Classes on a pro rata basis in proportion to the

respective outstanding Certificate Principal Balances thereof prior to the allocation thereto of any of the amounts described in the preceding sentence.

(c)        All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Payments in respect of each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date will be made to the Holders of the respective Class of record on the related Record Date (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(e) or Section 9.01 respecting the final distribution on such Class), based on the aggregate Percentage Interest represented by their respective Certificates, and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder shall have so notified the Certificate Registrar in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and with respect to any Class of Certificates other than the Residual Certificates is the registered owner of Certificates having an initial aggregate Certificate Principal Balance that is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the initial Certificate Principal Balance of such Class of Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(d)        The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests of the Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this Agreement. None of the Holders of any Class of Certificates, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Master Servicer shall in any way be responsible or liable to the Holders of any other Class of Certificates in respect of amounts properly previously distributed on the Certificates.

(e)        Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Trust Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall so timely advise the Paying Agent and the Paying Agent shall, no later than five days after the latest related Determination Date, mail on such date to each Holder of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that:

(i)         the Paying Agent expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Certificate Registrar therein specified, and

(ii)         no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the related Interest Accrual Period.

(iii)        Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Paying Agent and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Paying Agent shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates and shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non-tendering Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in such trust fund. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Citigroup Global Markets Inc. all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Paying Agent as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(e).

SECTION 4.03 Remittance Reports; P&I Advances.

(a)        On the second Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Credit Risk

Manager and the Trustee by telecopy (or by such other means as the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Trust Administrator and the Trustee may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the related Distribution Date. Such Remittance Report will include (i) the amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer in respect of the related Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of P&I Advances outstanding after giving effect to such P&I Advances, and the aggregate amount of Nonrecoverable P&I Advances in respect of such Distribution Date and (ii) such other information with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trust Administrator or the Paying Agent may reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary for the Paying Agent to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and for the Trust Administrator to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.02; provided, however, that if the Master Servicer is not the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer will forward to the successor Trust Administrator the information set forth in clause (i) above on the next Business Day following the latest related Determination Date and the information set forth in clause (ii) above on the fifth Business Day following the last day of the related calendar month. Neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor the Trust Administrator shall be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Master Servicer.

(b)        The amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.03(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee and the related Administration Fee), due on the related Due Date in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were delinquent as of the close of business on the related Determination Date and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee and the related Administration Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related Mortgage Loans.

On or before 12:00 p.m. New York time on the Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or, if received from a Sub-Servicer, from funds remitted by a Sub-Servicer in payment of required P&I Advances or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case, it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.03, used by the Master Servicer in discharge of any such P&I Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Master Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Distribution Amount for the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to P&I Advances to be made on the Master Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to make

P&I Advances. The Trust Administrator will provide notice to the Master Servicer by telecopy by the close of business on the Master Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trust Administrator on such Master Servicer Remittance Date is less than the P&I Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

(c)        The obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to (d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith or the removal thereof from REMIC I pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section.

(d)        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Master Servicer if such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. The determination by the Master Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate of the Master Servicer delivered to the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Credit Risk Manager and the Trustee.

(e)        If the Master Servicer shall fail to make any P&I Advance on any Master Servicer Remittance Date required to be made from its own funds pursuant to this Section 4.03, then the Paying Agent, by not later than 1:00 p.m. on the related Distribution Date, shall make such P&I advance from its own funds by depositing the amount of such advance into the Distribution Account, and the Trust Administrator and the Paying Agent shall include the amount so advanced by the Paying Agent in the Available Distribution Amount distributed on such Distribution Date.

SECTION 4.04 Allocation of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses and Realized Losses.

(a)        Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property: (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses constituted Fraud Losses or Special Hazard Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal. Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall also determine as to each Mortgage Loan: (A) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during the related Prepayment Period; and (B) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly Payments due during the related Due Period. The information described in the two preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Trustee by the Master Servicer prior to the Determination Date immediately following the end of (x) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (y) in the case of all other Realized Losses, the Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.

(b)        All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans (other than Excess Losses) shall be allocated by the Paying Agent on each Distribution Date in reverse sequential order to the Subordinate Certificates, in each case until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.

Thereafter, upon the reduction of the Certificate Principal Balances of the Subordinate Certificates to zero, all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans (other than Excess Losses) shall be allocated to the Class A Certificates.

Excess Losses on the Mortgage Loans will be allocated on any Distribution Date by allocating (i) the Senior Percentage of the Excess Loss to the Class A Certificates as set forth below and (ii) the Subordinate Percentage of the Excess Loss to the Subordinate Certificates on a pro rata basis.

Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses will be allocated on any Distribution Date as follows: first, to the Class B-6 Certificates; second, to the Class B-5 Certificates; third, to the Class B-4 Certificates; fourth, to the Class B-3 Certificates; fifth, to the Class B-2 Certificates; and sixth, to the Class B-1 Certificates, in each case until the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class has been reduced to zero. Thereafter, the Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses will be allocated on any Distribution Date to the Class A Certificates.

As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss or Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense on a “pro rata basis” among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. Any allocation of a Realized Loss of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense to a Certificate shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated as of the Distribution Date following the Prepayment Period in which such Realized Loss was incurred.

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a Class A Certificate be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (i) allocable to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses or Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses pursuant to Section 4.04 and (ii) payable to the Holder of such Certificate pursuant to Section 4.01(a) as a portion of the Senior Principal Distribution Amount.

SECTION 4.05 Compliance with Withholding Requirements.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Paying Agent shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that the Paying Agent reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. In the event the Paying Agent does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount

payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Paying Agent shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholders.

SECTION 4.06 Commission Reporting.

The Depositor shall prepare or cause to be prepared the initial current report on Form 8-K. Within 15 days after each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with industry standards, file with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (“XXXXX”), a Form 8-K with a copy of the statement to be furnished to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to January 30, 2006, the Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notice with respect to the Trust Fund, if applicable. Prior to (i) March 31, 2006 and (ii) unless and until a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, March 31st of each year thereafter, the Trust Administrator, in its capacity as trust administrator hereunder, shall execute and file a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry standards, with respect to the Trust. Such Form 10-K shall include the Master Servicer Certification, the annual independent accountant’s servicing report and annual statement of compliance to be delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.20 and 3.21. The Depositor hereby grants to the Trust Administrator a limited power of attorney to execute and file the Forms 8-K and the Form 10-K on behalf of the Depositor. Such power of attorney shall continue until either the earlier of (i) receipt by the Trust Administrator from the Depositor of written termination of such power of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund. The Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer, from time to time upon request, such further information, reports and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans as the Trust Administrator or the Master Servicer reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission. Neither the Trust Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section 4.06; provided, however, the Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer will cooperate with the Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the Trust Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Fees and expenses incurred by the Trust Administrator or the Master Servicer in connection with this Section 4.06 shall not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

ARTICLE V

THE CERTIFICATES

SECTION 5.01 The Certificates.

(a)        The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in the Trust Fund. At the Closing Date, the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates will equal the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-8. The Certificates of each Class will be issuable in registered form only, in

denominations of authorized Percentage Interests as described in the definition thereof. Each Certificate will share ratably in all rights of the related Class.

Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed by the Paying Agent and delivered by the Authenticating Agent to or upon the order of the Depositor. The Certificates shall be executed and attested by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Paying Agent by an authorized signatory. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Paying Agent shall bind the Paying Agent, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the execution, authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificates. 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 herein executed by the Authenticating Agent by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication 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.

(b)        The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the Depository and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Certificate Registrar except to another Depository that agrees to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered Certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) in respect of such Ownership Interests. All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book- Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures. The Paying Agent is hereby initially appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and if it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator and any other transfer agent (including the Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any such appointment of other than the Depository. If the Paying Agent resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor Paying Agent or, if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Book-Entry Custodian. The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian.

The Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The Paying Agent may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.

If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Certificate Registrar through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Certificate Registrar shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the Book- Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the Depository, as applicable, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the Paying Agent shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000, except that any beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $100,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the 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 Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

SECTION 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

(a)        The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Trust Administrator in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.12 a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

(b)        No transfer of any Private Certificate or Ownership Interest therein shall be made unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of a Private Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification (other than in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor), the Certificate Registrar shall require, receipt of written certifications from the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and from such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, or in the case of any Definitive Certificate, an opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent, the Master Servicer in its capacity as such or any Sub-Servicer), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based, if any. In the event of any such transfer of any Ownership Interest in any Private Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, except with respect to the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor, such transfer shall be required to be made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, and the transferor will be deemed to have made each of the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit F-1 hereto in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Certificate and the transferee will be deemed to have made each of the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit F-1 hereto in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Certificate. None of the Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify any such Certificates under the 1933 Act or any other securities laws or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer of any such Certificate or Ownership Interest therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Master Servicer and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(c)        (i) No transfer of a Residual Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with “Plan Assets” of a Plan within the meaning of the DOL Regulations (“Plan Assets”) as certified by such transferee in the form of Exhibit G, unless the Certificate Registrar is provided with an Opinion of Counsel on which the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Master Servicer may rely, to the effect that the purchase and holding of such Certificates will be permissible under applicable law, ERISA and the Code, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Trust Fund. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, any prospective Transferee of such Certificates may provide a certification in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement (or other form acceptable to the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Master Servicer), which the Certificate Registrar may rely upon without further inquiry or investigation. Neither a certification nor an Opinion of Counsel will be required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall have deemed to have represented that such Affiliate is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Certificate Registrar shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Certificate Registrar, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

(ii)       Each beneficial owner of a Private Certificate, Class B-1 Certificate, Class B-2 Certificate or Class B-3 Certificate or any interest therein shall be deemed

to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition and holding of such Certificate or interest therein, that either (A) it is not a Plan or investing with Plan Assets, (B) other than with respect to a Private Certificate, it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on the Underwriter’s Exemption granted by the Department of Labor on April 18, 1991 as Prohibited Transaction Exemption (“PTE”) 91-23 at 56 F.R. 15936 and amended on July 21, 1997 as PTE 97-34 at 62 F.R. 39021 and further amended on November 13, 2000 by PTE 2000-58 at 65 F.R. 67765 and on August 22, 2002 by PTE 2001-41 at 67 F.R. 54487 (“Underwriter's Exemption”), and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Underwriter's Exemption, including that the certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or its equivalent) by Xxxxx'x or S&P, or (C) (i) it is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the Certificate or interest therein is an "insurance company general account," as defined in Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and (iii) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.

(iii) If any Certificate or any interest therein is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs, 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 any such Certificate or interest therein was effected in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition or holding.

(d)        (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Paying Agent or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(A)       Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.

(B)        In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it and shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of an affidavit and agreement (a “Transfer Affidavit and Agreement”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2, from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a

Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 5.02(d) and agrees to be bound by them.

(C)       Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar who is assigned to this transaction has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected.

(D)       Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a transferor affidavit (a “Transferor Affidavit”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2, to the Certificate Registrar stating that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge that such other Person is not a Permitted Transferee.

(E)        Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Certificate Registrar written notice that it is a “pass-through interest holder” within the meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section 1.67- 3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a “pass-through interest holder.”

(ii)         The Certificate Registrar will register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and Agreement and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Certificate Registrar as a condition to such registration. In addition, no Transfer of a Residual Certificate shall be made unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received a representation letter from the Transferee of such Certificate to the effect that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee.

(iii)        (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Certificate Registrar 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 5.02(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.

(B)        If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(d) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Certificate Registrar shall have the right, without notice to the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Certificate Registrar on such terms as the Certificate Registrar may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Certificate Registrar. Such purchaser may be the Certificate Registrar itself or any Affiliate of the Certificate Registrar. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Certificate Registrar or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Certificate Registrar to such purported Transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.

(iv)        The Trust Administrator and the Certificate Registrar shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be accepted by the Trust Administrator and the Certificate Registrar.

(v)        The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) set forth prior to this subsection (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trust Administrator and the Certificate Registrar at the expense of the party seeking to modify, add to or eliminate any such provision the following:

(A)       written notification from the Rating Agencies to the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause the Rating Agencies to downgrade its then-current ratings of any Class of Certificates; and

(B)        an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Trust Administrator, to the effect that such modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause any

Trust REMIC to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not cause (x) any Trust REMIC to be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee or (y) a Person other than the prospective transferee to be subject to a REMIC-tax caused by the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.

(e)        Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Certificate Registrar shall give notice of such surrender to the Paying Agent and the Authenticating Agent. Upon receipt of such notice, the Paying Agent shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee or Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.

(f)         At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class with authorized denominations and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, upon notice from the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

(g)        No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any transfer or exchange 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 transfer or exchange of Certificates.

(h)        All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be canceled and destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary procedures.

SECTION 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Paying Agent shall execute, and the 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 the same Class and of like denomination and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses

(including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable REMIC created hereunder, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

SECTION 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Authenticating Agent, the Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 5.05 Certain Available Information.

The Paying Agent shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office and shall make available free of charge during normal business hours for review by any Holder of a Certificate or any Person identified to the Paying Agent as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, originals or copies of the following items: (A) this Agreement and any amendments hereof entered into pursuant to Section 11.01, (B) all monthly statements required to be delivered to Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to Section 4.02 since the Closing Date, and all other notices, reports, statements and written communications delivered to the Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to this Agreement since the Closing Date, (C) all certifications delivered by a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator since the Closing Date pursuant to Section 10.01(h), (D) any and all Officers’ Certificates delivered to the Trust Administrator or the Paying Agent by the Master Servicer since the Closing Date to evidence the Master Servicer’s determination that any P&I Advance was, or if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance and (E) any and all Officers’ Certificates delivered to the Trust Administrator or the Paying Agent by the Master Servicer since the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.04(a).

The Depositor and the Master Servicer each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.

The Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac; and provided further that the Rating Agencies’ ratings of the Certificates rated thereby and in effect immediately prior to such merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a result thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies).

SECTION 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Others.

None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund 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 Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer pursuant hereto, or against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, PRIMA FACIE, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund 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 to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to

this Agreement) or any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor and the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the Depositor or the Master Servicer acts without the consent of Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (which consent shall not be necessary in the case of litigation or other legal action by either to enforce their respective rights or defend themselves hereunder), the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor (subject to the limitations set forth above) and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account.

SECTION 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) with the written consent of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, with written confirmation from the Rating Agencies (which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator) that such resignation will not cause the Rating Agencies to reduce the then current rating of the Class A Certificates and provided that a qualified successor has agreed to assume the duties and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Master Servicer and delivered to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator. No resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign nor transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, nor delegate to or subcontract with, nor authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Master Servicer hereunder. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are transferred to a successor master servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee, the Administration Fee and other compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.

SECTION 6.05 Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall afford (and any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that each Sub-Servicer shall afford) the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Master Servicer (and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Master Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator its (and any such Sub-Servicer’s) most recent financial statements of the parent company of the Master Servicer and such other information relating to the Master Servicer’s capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement that it possesses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of the Initial Sub-Servicer, such access and information described in the preceding two sentences shall be required to be provided only to the extent provided in the Sub-Servicing Agreement. To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the preceding two sentences without the Master Servicer’s written consent, except as required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is appropriate to do so (i) in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, rating agencies or reinsurers or (ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Trust Fund, and in either case, the Depositor, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public information. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

ARTICLE VII

DEFAULT

SECTION 7.01 Master Servicer Events of Default.

“Master Servicer Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:

(i)         any failure by the Master Servicer to remit to the Paying Agent for distribution to the Certificateholders any payment (other than a P&I Advance required to be made from its own funds on any Master Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.03) required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to

be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer (with a copy to the Paying Agent ) by the Depositor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee (in which case notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or

(ii)         any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained in the Certificates or in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer; or

(iii)        a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Master Servicer and if such proceeding is being contested by the Master Servicer in good faith such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days or results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment; or

(iv)        the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(v)        the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

(vi)        any failure of the Master Servicer to make, or of the Paying Agent to make on behalf of the Master Servicer, any P&I Advance on any Master Servicer Remittance Date required to be made from its own funds pursuant to Section 4.03.

If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (v) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee

shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Depositor if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its capacity as a Master Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vi) hereof shall occur and shall not have been remedied by 1:00 p.m. on the related Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee of the same, and the Trustee shall be obligated to make such P&I Advance and, then so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied during the applicable time period set forth in clause (vi) above (including the reimbursement to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, with interest thereon at the Prime Rate, for any P&I Advance made), the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its capacity as a Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver on behalf of and at the expense of the Master Servicer, 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 Master Servicer agrees, at its sole cost and expense, promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s functions under this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time shall be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer, the Distribution Account or any REO Account or Servicing Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property serviced by the Master Servicer (provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of P&I Advances or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding any such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to such termination). For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Master Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee’s Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Master Servicer Event of Default is received by the Trustee and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement.

SECTION 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a)        On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not have the right to withdraw any

funds from the Collection Account without the consent of the Trustee and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer (except for any representations or warranties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s obligations to make P&I Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; provided, however, that if the Trustee is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, then the Trustee shall not be obligated to make P&I Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and Administration Fees and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder (other than amounts which were due or would become due to the Master Servicer prior to its termination or resignation). Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to the Rating Agencies and having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 as the successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer under this Agreement. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, 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 the Master Servicer as such hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.

(b)        In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor servicer, including the Trustee, if the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System to the successor Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer

shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The predecessor Master Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this Section 7.02(b).

SECTION 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.

(a)        Upon any termination of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 above, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

(b)        Not later than the later of 60 days after the occurrence of any event, which constitutes or which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Master Servicer Event of Default or five days after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each such occurrence, unless such default or Master Servicer Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.

SECTION 7.04 Waiver of Master Servicer Events of Default.

Subject to Section 11.09(d), the Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default or Master Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Master Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vi) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a default or Master Servicer Event of Default, such default or Master Servicer Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Master Servicer Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own misconduct; provided, however, that:

(i)         With respect to the Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Master Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred, and with respect to the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Authenticating Agent, at all times, the duties and obligations of each of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Authenticating Agent, shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, none of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent shall be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, that conform to the requirements of this Agreement;

(ii)         None of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent shall be personally liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible

In the absence of receipt of such notice or actual knowledge, the Trustee may conclusively assume there is no default.

None of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, in each case not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as applicable, including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s, the Trust Administrator’s the Paying Agent’s, the Certificate Registrar’s or the Authenticating Agent’s, as the case may be, performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. With respect to the Trustee, 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, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.01 REMIC Administration.

(a)        The Trustee shall elect to treat each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under applicable state law. Such election will be made by the Trust Administrator on behalf of the Trustee on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return or any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are issued. For the purposes of the REMIC election in respect of REMIC I, the Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) shall be designated as the Regular Interests in REMIC I and the Class R Certificates shall be designated as the Residual Interest in REMIC I. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall permit the creation of any “interests” in REMIC I (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) other than the Certificates.

(b)        The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC created hereunder within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(c)        The Trust Administrator shall pay any and all expenses relating to any tax audit of the Trust Fund (including, but not limited to, any professional fees or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to any Trust REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities), and shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust therefor to the extent permitted under Section 8.05. The Trust Administrator, as agent for any Trust REMIC’s tax matters person, shall (i) act on behalf of the Trust Fund in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving any Trust REMIC and (ii) represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Residual Certificates shall be designated, in the manner provided under Treasury regulations section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury regulations section 301.6231(a)(7)-1, as the tax matters person of the REMIC created hereunder. By its acceptance thereof, the Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Residual Certificates hereby agrees to irrevocably appoint the Trust Administrator or an Affiliate as its agent to perform all of the duties of the tax matters person for the Trust Fund.

(d)        The Trust Administrator shall prepare and the Trustee at the direction of the Trust Administrator shall sign and the Trust Administrator shall file all of the Tax Returns in respect of the REMIC created hereunder. The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trust Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trust Administrator or its designee such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trust Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this Article.

(e)        The Trust Administrator shall perform on behalf of any Trust REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of the REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority including the filing of Form 8811 with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days following the Closing Date. Among its other duties, as required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other such compliance guidance, the Trust Administrator shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Residual Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption as required) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address and telephone number of the person who will serve as the representative of any Trust REMIC. The Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trust Administrator such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Loans, as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trust Administrator to enable it to perform its obligations under this subsection. In addition, the Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trust Administrator, within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trust Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, Prepayment Assumption and projected cash flow of the Certificates.

(f)         The Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall take such action and shall cause any Trust REMIC to take such action as shall be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions. The Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the Trust Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Trust Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Master Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee or the Trust Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition, prior to

taking any action with respect to any Trust REMIC or its assets, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer will consult with the Trustee and the Trust Administrator or their designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any Trust REMIC, and the Master Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee or the Trust Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Trust Administrator and the Trustee may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer will ensure that substantially all of the assets of any Trust REMIC will consist of “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(g)        In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of the REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of the REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to the REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trust Administrator of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, (iii) to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this Article X, (iv) to the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Paying Agent of any of its obligations under this Article X, or otherwise (v) against amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.

(h) [Reserved].

(i)         The Trust Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to any Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.

(j)         Following the Startup Day, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC other than in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the Trust Fund will not cause the REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject the REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.

(k)        None of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit either such REMIC to receive any income from assets other than

“qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

SECTION 10.02 Prohibited Transactions and Activities.

None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent or the Trustee shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of any Trust REMIC, (iii) the termination of any Trust REMIC pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement), nor acquire any assets for any Trust REMIC (other than REO Property acquired in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan), nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any Trust REMIC after the Closing Date (other than a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03), unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator (at the expense of the party seeking to cause such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution but in no event at the expense of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator) that such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

SECTION 10.03 Master Servicer and Trust Administrator Indemnification.

(a)        The Trust Administrator agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee as a result of a breach of the Trust Administrator’s covenants set forth in this Article X.

(b)        The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as a result of a breach of the Master Servicer’s covenants set forth in Article III or this Article X.

SECTION 11.09 Grant of Security Interest.

It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and not a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor, then, (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor and (b)(1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York; (2) the conveyance provided for in Section 2.01 hereof shall be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by such security agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor’s obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the Certificateholders the benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Fund; and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as

applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Accordingly, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other property described in clause (2) of the preceding sentence, for the purpose of securing to the Trustee the performance by the Depositor of the obligations described in clause (3) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto intend the conveyance pursuant to Section 2.01 to be a true, absolute and unconditional sale of the Mortgage Loans and assets constituting the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee have caused their names to be signed hereto by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, in each case as of the day and year first above written.

This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25^th day of each month or, if such 25^th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Paying Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Paying Agent in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Paying Agent of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Paying Agent for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing the Percentage Interest specified above in the Class of Certificates to which this Certificate belongs.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders, under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A. and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Certificate Registrar as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A. or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from the Trust Fund of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from the Trust Fund all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Paying Agent of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Paying Agent for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing the Percentage Interest specified above in the Class of Certificates to which this Certificate belongs.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Certificate Registrar as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No

service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A. or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, Citibank, N.A., the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from the Trust Fund of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from the Trust Fund all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.

To the extent not already recorded, the Trust Administrator, at the expense of the Seller shall pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement promptly (and in no event later than three months following the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Trust Administrator of the recording information for a Mortgage) submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to the Trust Estate or the Trust Administrator, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment delivered to it pursuant to Sections 4(b)(iii) and (iv) above. In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Trust Administrator, at the expense of the Seller, shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but without limiting the requirement that such Assignments be in recordable form,

neither the Trust Administrator nor the Trustee shall be required to submit or cause to be submitted for recording each Assignment delivered to it pursuant to Sections 4(b)(iii) and (iv) if such recordation shall not, as of the Closing Date, be required by the Rating Agencies, as a condition to their assignment on the Closing Date of their initial ratings to the Certificates, as evidenced by the delivery by the Rating Agencies of their ratings letters on the Closing Date.

The Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trust Administrator promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan.

All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trust Administrator are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Seller, the Servicer, the Purchaser or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. In the event that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Trust Administrator. Any such original document delivered to or held by the Seller or the Purchaser that is not required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, shall be delivered promptly to the related Servicer.

(c) Acceptance of Mortgage Loans. The documents delivered pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof shall be reviewed by the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser at any time before or after the Closing Date (and with respect to each document permitted to be delivered after the Closing Date within seven days of its delivery) to ascertain that all required documents have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(d) Transfer of Interest in Agreements. The Purchaser has the right to assign its interest under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to the Trustee, as may be required to effect the purposes of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of the Seller, and the assignee shall succeed to the rights and obligations hereunder of the Purchaser. Any expense reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Purchaser or the Trustee in connection with enforcing any obligations of the Seller under this Agreement will be promptly reimbursed by the Seller.

(e) Examination of Mortgage Files. Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall either (i) deliver in escrow to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser, for examination, the Mortgage File pertaining to each Mortgage Loan, or (ii) make such Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser for examination. Such examination may be made by the Purchaser or the Trustee, and their respective designees, upon reasonable notice to the Seller during normal business hours before the Closing Date and within 60 days after the Closing Date. If any such person makes such examination prior to the Closing Date and identifies any Mortgage Loans that do not conform to the requirements of the Purchaser as described in this Agreement, such Mortgage Loans shall be deleted from the Closing Schedule. The Purchaser may, at its option and without notice to the Seller, purchase all or part of the Mortgage Loans without conducting any partial or complete examination. The fact that the Purchaser or any person has conducted or has failed to

conduct any partial or complete examination of the Mortgage Files shall not affect the rights of the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser to demand repurchase or other relief as provided herein or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 6. Repurchase Obligation for Defective Documentation and for Breach of Representation and Warranty.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser, including the Trustee for the benefit of holders of the Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates evidencing an interest in all or a portion of the Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment or the examination or lack of examination of any Mortgage File. With respect to the representations and warranties contained herein that are made to the knowledge or the best knowledge of the Seller, or as to which the Seller has no knowledge, if it is discovered that the substance of any such representation and warranty is inaccurate and the inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, or the interest therein of the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s assignee, designee or transferee, then notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate at the time the representation and warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty and the Seller shall take such action described in the following paragraphs of this Section 6 in respect of such Mortgage Loan. Upon discovery by either the Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties made by the Seller that materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser (or which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser in the related Mortgage Loan in the

case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage Loan), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other.

Within 90 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of any breach of a representation or warranty made by the Seller that materially and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loans or the interest therein of the Purchaser, the Seller shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Seller shall, at the Purchaser’s option, repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Purchase Price. The Seller may, at the request of the Purchaser and assuming the Seller has a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, rather than repurchase a deficient Mortgage Loan as provided above, remove such Mortgage Loan and substitute in its place a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans. If the Seller does not provide a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, it shall repurchase the deficient Mortgage Loan. Any repurchase of a Mortgage Loan(s) pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 shall occur on a date designated by the Purchaser and shall be accomplished by deposit in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any repurchase or substitution required by this Section shall be made in a manner consistent with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

At the time of substitution or repurchase by the Seller of any deficient Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange for the reassignment of the repurchased or substituted Mortgage Loan to the Seller and the delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Trustee relating to the deficient or repurchased Mortgage Loan. In the event the Purchase Price is deposited in the Collection Account. The Seller shall, simultaneously with such deposit, give written notice to the Purchaser that such deposit has taken place. Upon such repurchase, the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be amended to reflect the withdrawal of the repurchased Mortgage Loan from this Agreement.

As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller shall effect such substitution by delivering to the Purchaser or its designee for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment and such other documents and agreements as are required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required therein. The Seller shall remit for deposit in the Collection Account the Monthly Payment due on such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans in the month following the date of such substitution. Monthly payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Purchaser will include the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Mortgage Loan in the month of substitution, and the Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received by the Seller in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans as of the date of substitution, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee on behalf of the Purchaser.

It is understood and agreed that (i) the obligations of the Seller set forth in this Section 6 to cure, repurchase and substitute for a defective Mortgage Loan and (ii) the obligations of the Seller as provided in the next sentence constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser respecting a missing or defective document or a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5. The Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold it harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5(a), (c), (d) and (e) this Agreement.

SECTION 7. Closing; Payment for the Mortgage Loans. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall be held at the New York City office of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Wood LLP at 10:00 AM New York City time on the Closing Date.

The closing shall be subject to each of the following conditions:

(a) All of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date as of which they are made and no event shall have occurred which, with notice or the passage of time, would constitute a default under this Agreement;

(b) The Purchaser shall have received, or the attorneys of the Purchaser shall have received in escrow (to be released from escrow at the time of closing), all Closing Documents as specified in Section 8 of this Agreement, in such forms as are agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, duly executed by all signatories other than the Purchaser as required pursuant to the respective terms thereof;

(c) The Seller shall have delivered or caused to be delivered and released to the Purchaser or to its designee, all documents (including without limitation, the Mortgage Loans) required to be so delivered by the Purchaser; and

(d) All other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall have been complied with.

Subject to the foregoing conditions, the Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Seller on the Closing Date, against delivery and release by the Seller to the Trustee of all documents required pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as specified in Section 3 of this Agreement, by delivery to the Seller of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price.

SECTION 8. Closing Documents. Without limiting the generality of Section 7 hereof, the closing shall be subject to delivery of each of the following documents:

(a) An Officers’ Certificate of the Seller, dated the Closing Date, upon which the Purchaser and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Underwriter”) may rely, in a form acceptable to the Purchaser;

(g) A letter from Deloitte & Touche L.L.P., certified public accountants, dated the date hereof and to the effect that they have performed certain specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature set forth in the Purchaser’s Prospectus Supplement, dated August 24, 2005, agrees with the records of the Seller;

(h) Letters from certified public accountants for each Originator, dated the date hereof and to the effect that they have performed certain specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature set forth in the Purchaser’s Prospectus Supplement, dated August 24, 2005 under the subheading “The Master Servicer and the Servicer—The Servicer” agrees with the records of the Servicer; and

(i) Such further information, certificates, opinions and documents as the Purchaser or the Underwriter may reasonably request.

SECTION 9. Costs. The Seller shall pay (or shall reimburse the Purchaser or any other Person to the extent that the Purchaser or such other Person shall pay) all necessary and reasonable costs and expenses incurred directly in delivering this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificates, the prospectus, prospectus supplement and private placement memorandum relating to the Certificates and other related documents, the initial fees, costs and expenses of the Trust Administrator and the Trustee set forth in an engagement letter delivered to the Seller by the Trust Administrator, the fees and expenses of the Purchaser’s counsel in connection with the preparation of all documents relating to the securitization of the

All other costs and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be borne by the party incurring such expense.

SECTION 10. [Reserved].

SECTION 11. Mandatory Delivery; Grant of Security Interest. The sale and delivery on the Closing Date of the Mortgage Loans described on the Mortgage Loan Schedule in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement is mandatory. It is specifically understood and agreed that each Mortgage Loan is unique and identifiable on the date hereof and that an award of money damages would be insufficient to compensate the Purchaser for the losses and damages incurred by the Purchaser in the event of the Seller’s failure to deliver the Mortgage Loans on or before the Closing Date. The Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a lien on and a continuing security interest in the Seller’s interest in each Mortgage Loan and each document and instrument evidencing each such Mortgage Loan to secure the performance by the Seller of its obligation hereunder, and the Seller agrees that it holds such Mortgage Loans in custody for the Purchaser, subject to the Purchaser’s (i) right, prior to the Closing Date, to reject any Mortgage Loan to the extent permitted by this Agreement and (ii) obligation to deliver or cause to be delivered the consideration for the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 7 hereof. Any Mortgage Loans rejected by the Purchaser shall concurrently therewith be released from the security interest created hereby. The Seller agrees that, upon acceptance of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser or its designee and delivery of payment to the Seller, that its security interest in the Mortgage Loans shall be released. All rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement are distinct from, and cumulative with, any other rights or remedies under this Agreement or afforded by law or equity and all such rights and remedies may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the Closing Date, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof shall have been satisfied and the Purchaser shall not have paid or caused to be paid the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price, or any such condition shall not have been waived or satisfied and the Purchaser determines not to pay or cause to be paid the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall immediately effect the redelivery of the Mortgage Loans, if delivery to the Purchaser has occurred and the security interest created by this Section 11 shall be deemed to have been released.

SECTION 12. Notices. All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered to or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, or transmitted by telex or telegraph and confirmed by a similar mailed writing, if to the Purchaser, addressed to the Purchaser at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Mortgage Finance Group, or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to the Seller in writing by the Purchaser, and if to the Seller, addressed to the Seller at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Mortgage Finance Group, or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to the Purchaser in writing by the Seller.

SECTION 13. Severability of Provisions. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof.

SECTION 14. Agreement of Parties. The Seller and the Purchaser each agree to execute and deliver such instruments and take such actions as either of the others may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to effectuate the purpose and to carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 15. Survival. The Seller agrees that the representations, warranties and agreements made by it herein and in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be relied upon by the Purchaser, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by the Purchaser or on its behalf, and that the representations, warranties and agreements made by the Seller herein or in any such certificate or other instrument shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Mortgage Loans and shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Mortgage Notes and notwithstanding subsequent termination of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Trust Fund.

SECTION 16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS, DUTIES, OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS (INCLUDING THE CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS) AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PARTIES HERETO INTEND THAT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SHALL APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT.

SECTION 17. Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. The headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser as provided in Section 4 hereof be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser and not as a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Seller, then, (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller and (b) (1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; (2) the conveyance provided for in Section 4 hereof shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the possession by the Purchaser or its agent of Mortgage Notes, the related Mortgages and such other items of property that constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-305 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(d) hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created hereby. The Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, 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 and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 18. Indemnification. The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless each of (i) the Purchaser, (ii) Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and (iii) each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) ((i) through (iii) collectively, the “Indemnified Party”) against any and all losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities to which the Indemnified Party may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of, are based upon, or result from, a breach by the Seller of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller herein, it being understood that the Purchaser has relied upon such representations and warranties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Purchaser and the Seller have caused their names to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

e) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation

All buildings or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of Section 4.10. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available) a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of Section 4.10.

h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission.

3. other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein and the Company has full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser. The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secured debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage;

The Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan as set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule is net of any such insurance premium;

The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender's title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (i) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (ii) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and

(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein and the Company has full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser.

With respect to each Cooperative Loan, each Pledge Agreement creates a valid, enforceable and subsisting first security interest in the Cooperative Shares and Proprietary Lease, subject only to (i) the lien of the related Cooperative for unpaid assessments representing the Mortgagor’s pro rata share of the Cooperative’s payments for its blanket mortgage, current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like collateral is commonly subject and (ii) other matters to which like collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Pledge Agreement; provided, however, that the appurtenant Proprietary Lease may be subordinated or otherwise subject to the lien of any mortgage on the Project;

(l) Full Disbursement of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed, except for escrows established or created due to seasonal weather conditions, and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage;

(m) Consolidation of Future Advances.

Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date, have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured

principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(n) Ownership.

The Company is the sole owner of record and holder of the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not assigned or pledged, and the Company has good and marketable title thereto and has full right and authority to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser. The Company is transferring the Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all encumbrances, liens, pledges, equities, participation interests, claims, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan;

(o) Origination/Doing Business.

The Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, a credit union, an insurance company, or similar institution that is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority or by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (1) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and (2) organized under the laws of such state, or (3) qualified to do business in such state, or (4) federal savings and loan associations or national banks having principal offices in such state, or (5) not doing business in such state;

(p) LTV, PMI Policy.

Each Mortgage Loan has an LTV as specified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. Except for Pledged Asset Mortgage Loans, if the LTV of the Mortgage Loan was greater than 80% at the time of origination, a portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is and will be insured as to payment defaults by a PMI Policy. If the Mortgage Loan is insured by a PMI Policy for which the Mortgagor pays all premiums, the coverage will remain in place until (i) the LTV decreases to 78% or (ii) the PMI Policy is otherwise terminated pursuant to the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, 12 USC §4901, et seq. All provisions of such PMI Policy or LPMI Policy have been and are being complied with, such

policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. The Qualified Insurer has a claims paying ability acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. Any Mortgage Loan subject to a PMI Policy or LPMI Policy obligates the Mortgagor or the Company to maintain the PMI Policy or LPMI Policy and to pay all premiums and charges in connection therewith. The Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule is net of any such insurance premium;

(q) Title Insurance.

The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy (or in the case of any Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such policies are generally not available, an opinion of counsel of the type customarily rendered in such jurisdiction in lieu of title insurance) or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, issued by a title insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the Company, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of Paragraph (k) of this Section 3.02, and against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy includes no exceptions regarding ingress, egress or encroachments that impact the value or the marketability of the Mortgaged Property. The Company is the sole insured of such lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the Mortgage, including the Company, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's title insurance policy;

(r) No Defaults.

There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither the Company nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration;

(s) No Mechanics' Liens.

There are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage which are not insured against by the title insurance policy referenced in Paragraph (q) above;

(t) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments.

Except as insured against by the title insurance policy referenced in Paragraph (q) above, all improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation;

(u) Payment Terms.

Except with respect to the Interest Only Mortgage Loans, principal payments commenced no more than 60 days after the funds were disbursed to the Mortgagor in connection with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loans have an original term to maturity of not more than 30 years, with interest payable in arrears on the first day of each month. As to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan on each applicable Adjustment Date, the Mortgage Interest Rate will be adjusted to equal the sum of the Index plus the applicable Gross Margin, rounded up or down to the nearest multiple of 0.125% indicated by the Mortgage Note; provided that the Mortgage Interest Rate will not increase or decrease by more than the Periodic Interest Rate Cap on any Adjustment Date, and will in no event exceed the maximum Mortgage Interest Rate or be lower than the minimum Mortgage Interest Rate listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule for such Mortgage Loan. As to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan that is not an Interest Only Mortgage Loan, each Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is sufficient, during the period prior to the first adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate, to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance as of the first day of such period over the then remaining term of such Mortgage Note and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. As to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, if the related Mortgage Interest Rate changes on an Adjustment Date or, with respect to an Interest Only Mortgage Loan, on an Adjustment Date following the related interest only period, the then outstanding principal balance will be reamortized over the remaining life of such Mortgage Loan. No Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative amortization;

(v) Customary Provisions.

The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage;

(w) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property.

As of the date of origination, the Mortgaged Property was in good repair and was lawfully occupied under applicable law;

(x) No Additional Collateral.

Except in the case of a Pledged Asset Mortgage Loan and as indicated on the related Data File, the Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral, pledged account or other security except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in Paragraph (k) above;

(y) Deeds of Trust.

In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Mortgagee to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by the Mortgagor;

(z) Acceptable Investment.

The Company has no knowledge of any circumstances or conditions with respect to the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor's credit standing that can reasonably be expected to cause private institutional investors to regard the Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become delinquent, or adversely affect the value or marketability of the Mortgage Loan;

(aa) Transfer of Mortgage Loans.

If the Mortgage Loan is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Assignment of Mortgage, upon the insertion of the name of the assignee and recording information, is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located;

(bb) Mortgaged Property Undamaged.

The Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended;

With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all such payments are in the possession of the Company and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due the Company have been capitalized under the Mortgage Note;

The appraisal was conducted by an appraiser who had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof; and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and the appraiser both satisfy the applicable requirements of Title XI of the Financial Institution Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated;

(ff) Insurance.

The Mortgaged Property securing each Mortgage Loan is insured by an insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac against loss by fire and such hazards as are covered under a standard extended coverage endorsement and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of Section 4.10, in an amount which is not less than the lesser of 100% of the insurable value of the

Mortgaged Property and the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, but in no event less than the minimum amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, it is included under the coverage afforded by a blanket policy for the project.

All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Company and its successors and assigns as mortgagee, and all premiums thereon have been paid. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain a hazard insurance policy at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor's cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Purchaser upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company has not acted or failed to act so as to impair the coverage of any such insurance policy or the validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof;

The temporary Buydown Funds enable the Mortgagor to qualify for the Buydown Mortgage Loan. The effective interest rate of a Buydown Mortgage Loan if less than the interest rate set forth in the related Mortgage Note will increase within the Buydown Period as provided in the related Buydown Agreement so that the effective interest rate will be equal to the interest rate as set forth in the related Mortgage Note.

COUNTY OF___________	)

__________________________, being duly sworn, deposes, represents and warrants as follows:

1. I am a ______________________ of ____________________________ (the “Owner”) a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of ______________, the record owner of Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust Inc., Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-4, Class R Certificates, (the “Class R Certificates”), on behalf of whom I make this affidavit and agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the Class R Certificates were issued.

2. The Owner (i) is and will be a “Permitted Transferee” as of ____________, 20__ and (ii) is acquiring the Class R Certificates for its own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit. A “Permitted Transferee” is any person other than a “disqualified organization” or a possession of the United States. For this purpose, a “disqualified organization” means the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of the activities of which are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international organization or any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government or organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization (other than certain farmers' cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business taxable income.

3. The Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of the Class R Certificates to disqualified organizations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that applies to all transfers of the Class R Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the transferor or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; (iii) that the person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit that the transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that each of the Class R Certificates may be a “noneconomic residual interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code and that the transferor of a “noneconomic residual interest” will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

4. The Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Class R Certificates if, at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity, a non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a “pass-through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives.)

5. The Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the transfer of any Class R Certificate unless the transferee, or the transferee's agent, delivers to the Trustee, among other things, an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit. The Owner expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any of the representations contained in such affidavit and agreement are false.

6. The Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is a Permitted Transferee.

7. The Owner's taxpayer identification number is _________________.

8. The Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Class R Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificates were issued (in particular, clauses (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(d) which authorize the Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and negotiate a mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event that the Owner holds such Certificate in violation of Section 5.02(d)); and that the Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.

9. The Owner is not acquiring and will not transfer the Class R Certificates in order to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

10. The Owner anticipates that it will, so long as it holds the Class R Certificates, have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Class R Certificates, and hereby represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it acquired the Class R Certificates that the Owner intends to pay taxes associated with holding such Class R Certificates as they become due, fully understanding that it may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class R Certificates.

11. The Owner has no present knowledge that it may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as it holds the Class R Certificates.

12. The Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will be unable to pay any United States taxes owed by it so long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding.

13. The Owner is not acquiring the Class R Certificates with the intent to transfer the Class R Certificates to any person or entity that will not have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Class R Certificates, or that may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, for so long as the Class R Certificates remain outstanding.

14. The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of the Class R Certificates, obtain from its transferee the representations required by Section 5.02(d) of the

Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificate were issued and will not consummate any such transfer if it knows, or knows facts that should lead it to believe, that any such representations are false.

15. The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of the Class R Certificates, deliver to the Trustee an affidavit, which represents and warrants that it is not transferring the Class R Certificates to impede the assessment or collection of any tax and that it has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee: (i) has insufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by such transferee as holder of the Class R Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Class R Certificates remains outstanding; and (iii) is not a “Permitted Transferee”.

16. The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or an estate or trust whose income from sources without the United States may be included in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States.
