Section 3.03. Collateral Account Funds.
(a) Payments on the Collateral received by the Servicer shall

manner as the Controlling Party shall specify). All amounts or investments, if
any, remaining in the Collateral Account on any date after giving effect to the

another depository institution acceptable to the Controlling Party.

investments as to which the Master Collateral Agent, in its commercial capacity,
is obligated.

19
Agent with respect to the Collateral, and Bankers Trust Company of California,
N.A. hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act as Master Collateral
Agent hereunder. The Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Depositor in their
capacities as pledgees hereunder hereby authorize the Master Collateral Agent to
take such action on their behalf, and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers
and privileges hereunder as the Controlling Party may direct and as are
specifically authorized to be exercised by the Master Collateral Agent by the
terms hereof, together with such actions, rights, remedies, powers and
privileges as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Master Collateral Agent
shall execute the Servicing Agreement and shall act upon and in compliance with
the written instructions of the Controlling Party delivered pursuant to this
Agreement promptly following receipt of such written instructions.
(b) The Master Collateral Agent is, and shall at all times
during the term of this Agreement be, a Securities Intermediary for Financial
Security.
(c) The Master Collateral Agent is eligible to maintain, and
does maintain, and will continue to be eligible to maintain and will maintain,
one or more accounts in its name (or the name of a nominee) with each Clearing
Corporation through which Securities or Security Entitlements constituting
Collateral are held.
Section 4.02. Performance of Duties. The Master Collateral Agent may
perform any of its duties hereunder by or through agents and employees, shall be
entitled to retain counsel and act in reliance upon the written advice of such
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agencies hereby created or its
duties hereunder and shall not be liable for actions taken, or omitted to be
taken, in good faith reliance upon the opinion of counsel selected by it. The
duties of the Master Collateral Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in
nature. The Master Collateral Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to or shall be construed as to impose upon the Master Collateral Agent
any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth
herein.
Section 4.03. Limitation on Liability; Indemnification. Neither the
Master Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers or employees, shall
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder,
or in connection herewith, except that the Master Collateral Agent shall be
liable for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct; nor shall the Master
Collateral Agent be responsible for the validity, effectiveness, value,
sufficiency or enforceability against the Bank or WFAL 2 of this Agreement or
any of the Collateral (or any part thereof).
The Bank and WFAL 2 hereby jointly and severally agree to
indemnify and hold the Master Collateral Agent harmless from and against all
damage, liability and expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out

Section 4.08 hereof, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on
its part, the Master Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on any
communication, instrument, paper or other document reasonably believed by it to

Section 4.05. Successor Master Collateral Agent. The Master Collateral
Agent acting hereunder at any time may resign by giving not less than ninety
(90) days' prior written notice in writing to the Bank, WFAL 2, the Trustee and
Financial Security. If the Master Collateral Agent is also a Trustee and, as
such, determines that it has a conflicting interest on account of its acting as
Master Collateral Agent, the Master Collateral Agent shall eliminate such
conflicting interest by resigning as Master Collateral Agent hereunder rather
than resigning as such Trustee. The Controlling Party shall appoint a successor
to the Master Collateral Agent upon any such resignation by an instrument of
substitution complying with the requirements of applicable law, or, in the
absence of any such requirements, without formality other than appointment and
designation in writing, a copy of which instrument or writing shall be sent to
the Bank and WFAL 2; provided, however, that the validity of any such
appointment shall not be impaired or affected by any failure to give any such
notice to the Bank and WFAL 2 or by any defect therein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, prior to the receipt by the Bank and WFAL 2 of an FSA Notice, such
appointment shall be subject to the consent of the Bank and WFAL 2, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Upon the making and acceptance of
such appointment, the execution and delivery by such successor Master Collateral
Agent of a ratifying instrument pursuant to which such successor Master
Collateral Agent agrees to assume the duties and obligations imposed on the
Master Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement, and the delivery to such
successor Master Collateral Agent of the Collateral and related documents then
held by the retiring Master Collateral Agent, such successor Master Collateral
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the estate, rights,
powers, remedies, privileges, immunities, indemnities, duties and obligations
hereby granted to or conferred or imposed upon the Master Collateral Agent named
herein, and one such appointment and designation shall not exhaust the right to
appoint and designate further successor Master Collateral Agents hereunder. No
Master Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties or obligations
hereunder until the Collateral and related documents then held by such Master
Collateral Agent shall have been transferred and delivered to the successor
Master Collateral Agent and such retiring Master Collateral Agent shall have
executed and delivered to the successor Master Collateral Agent appropriate
instruments establishing the successor Master Collateral Agent as the record
holder of all liens and security interests in favor of the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent in the Collateral and transferring to such successor Master
Collateral Agent all power given pursuant to this Agreement to act as
attorney-in-fact of the Bank and WFAL 2, and each of them, for purposes of this
Agreement. Each such successor Master Collateral Agent shall provide the Bank,
WFAL 2 and Financial Security with its address, and its telephone and telecopier
numbers, to be used for purposes of Section 7.05 hereof, in a notice complying
with the terms of said Section.

expressly waives any and all rights of setoff that the Master Collateral Agent
may otherwise at any time have under applicable law with respect to the
Collateral Account and agrees that amounts in the Collateral Account shall at
all times be held and applied solely in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement.
Section 4.08. Control by the Controlling Party. The Master Collateral
Agent shall comply with notices and instructions given by the Bank or WFAL 2
only if expressly contemplated hereby or if accompanied by the written consent
of the Controlling Party, except that if any Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Master Collateral Agent shall act upon and comply with notices
and instructions given by the Controlling Party alone in the place and stead of
the Bank or WFAL 2. In the absence of any written communication by the
Controlling Party to the Master Collateral Agent to the effect that a Default
has occurred and is continuing, the Master Collateral Agent may assume that no
Default has occurred and is continuing. The Master Collateral Agent shall have
no duty to verify whether or not a Default has occurred or is continuing or the
facts stated in any FSA Notice. Any written communication by the Controlling
Party to the Master Collateral Agent specifying the amount of any obligations
owing to Financial Security or the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence of such
amount, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary received by the Master
Collateral Agent from the Bank, WFAL 2 or any other Person.

ARTICLE VI
REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT
Section 6.01. Rights and Remedies Upon Default.
(a) In addition to and not in limitation of the rights
otherwise provided to the Controlling Party pursuant to this Agreement, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if a Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Controlling Party in its discretion may, or may direct the
Master Collateral Agent to, exercise the following rights, privileges and
remedies:
(i) Collection of the Collateral. The Master Collateral
Agent shall have the right to collect all proceeds of the Collateral, to pay all
expenses of such collection, including the reasonable expenses and compensation
of the Master Collateral Agent, its agents and attorneys, and to apply the
remainder of the moneys so received as provided herein.
(ii) Sale of Collateral. The Master Collateral Agent may
sell, or cause to be sold, the Collateral or any part thereof or interest
therein, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash or at private sale or
auction with or without demand, advertisement or notice of the date, time or
place of sale or any adjournment thereof, upon such terms as the Controlling
Party may approve, and upon such sale the Master Collateral Agent shall make and
deliver to the purchaser or purchasers an appropriate instrument or instruments
of transfer. The Master Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the
true and lawful attorney of the Bank and WFAL 2, and each of them, in its name
and stead, to make all necessary transfers of property thus sold; and for that
purpose it may execute all necessary instruments of transfer, and may substitute
one or more Persons with like power, the Bank and WFAL 2, and each of them,
hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney, or such substitute
or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so
requested by the Master Collateral Agent or any purchaser of the Collateral or
any part thereof, the Bank and WFAL 2, and each of them, shall ratify and
confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to the Master
Collateral Agent or such purchaser all proper instruments of transfer and
releases as may be designated in any such request. The Master Collateral Agent
may proceed at law or in equity to foreclose the lien of this Agreement against
all or any part of the Collateral and to have the same sold under the judgment
or decree of a court having jurisdiction or as otherwise may be required or
permitted by law. Upon any such sale, whether made under the power of sale
hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, the Controlling Party may bid
for and purchase the Collateral or any part thereof and, upon compliance with
the terms of such sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of such property in
its or their own absolute right without accountability. Upon any sale, whether
made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings,
a receipt of the Master Collateral Agent, or of the officer making such sale
under judicial proceedings, shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or
purchasers at such sale for its or their purchase money, and such purchaser or
purchasers shall not be obliged to see to the application thereof. Any such
sale, whether under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
proceedings, shall bind the Master Collateral Agent, the Bank and WFAL 2, shall
operate to divest all right, title and interest whatsoever, either at law or in
equity,
21
25
of each of them in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both
at law and in equity, against each of them and their successors and assigns, and
against any and all Persons claiming through or under them.
(iii) Other Actions. The Master Collateral Agent shall
have the right to cause any other action permitted at law or in equity to be
initiated and prosecuted to enforce this Agreement and any rights granted by
virtue of the pledge of the Collateral hereunder.
(b) In the event that the Bank or WFAL 2 shall default in the
performance or observance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, the
Master Collateral Agent shall have the right to take any action or initiate any
proceeding at law or equity available to it to enforce the terms of this
Agreement.
Section 6.02. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Master
Collateral Agent has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Agreement, and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason, or has been determined adversely to such Master Collateral Agent,
then and in every such case the Bank, WFAL 2 and the Master Collateral Agent

which the Bank and/or WFAL 2 pledge items of Collateral to the Master Collateral
Agent hereunder (each such date, a "Pledge Date"), the Bank and WFAL 2 shall
deliver to the Master Collateral Agent, the Trustee and Financial Security a
schedule of Collateral (each, a "Collateral Schedule") which, as to each item of
Collateral, sets forth, to the extent applicable, the obligor's name, the loan
or other identifying number, the interest rate, the original principal balance,
the outstanding principal balance, the origination or issue date, the scheduled
monthly principal and interest payment and the maturity date.

On each Pledge Date, the Bank and WFAL 2 shall deliver to the
Master Collateral Agent the following documents with respect to each Mortgage
Loan pledged on such date to the Master Collateral Agent:
a. Original mortgage note endorsed or assigned without
recourse to Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A., as
Master Collateral Agent;
b. Original recorded mortgage or deed of trust or certified
copy thereof; and
c. Original assignment, in recordable form, of mortgage or
deed of trust (which may be a blanket assignment for all
Mortgage Loans) to Bankers Trust Company of California,
N.A., as Master Collateral Agent.
The Bank and WFAL 2 jointly and severally represent, warrant
and covenant to the Master Collateral Agent, the Trustee and Financial Security
that, with respect to each Mortgage Loan pledged to the Master Collateral Agent
hereunder, the Bank or WFAL 2 has (i) originals of all assumption and
modification agreements related thereto, (ii) evidence of homeowners insurance
on the related mortgaged property, and (iii) a title insurance policy.
Upon receipt by the Bank and WFAL 2 of an FSA Notice stating
that a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Bank and WFAL 2 shall deliver
to the Master Collateral Agent all documents and instruments specified in the
immediately preceding paragraph and such other documents and instruments with
respect to each Mortgage Loan, Contract, Federal Agency Security or other item
of Collateral pledged hereunder to the Master Collateral Agent in which a
security interest may be perfected by possession.
The documents and instruments delivered in respect of each
Mortgage Loan, Contract, Federal Agency Security or other item of Collateral are
herein referred to as the "Collateral File". The Master Collateral Agent shall
segregate and maintain continuous custody of all documents constituting each
Collateral File in secure and fireproof facilities within the State of
California in accordance with customary standards for such custody.
Section 7.02. Release of Documents to Servicer. In the event that a
specific document relating to an item of Collateral is required to be obtained
by the Servicer because such Collateral has been paid in full and is to be
released by the Servicer to the related obligor or to facilitate enforcement and
collection procedures with respect to such Collateral, the Servicer shall be
entitled to obtain such document by submitting to the Master Collateral Agent
(with copies to the Trustee and Financial Security) a written request therefor,
indicating and confirming that it will hold such document in trust for the
benefit of the Master Collateral Agent until such time as it is released to the
related obligor upon full payment or is otherwise returned to the Master
Collateral Agent. Upon its receipt of an FSA Notice stating that a Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Master Collateral Agent shall not release such
document to the Servicer until it has received the written authorization from
the Controlling Party.

with standard coverage and subject to deductibles, as are customary for
insurance typically maintained by institutions which act as custodian in similar
transactions.
Section 7.04. Master Collateral Agent's Interest in Collateral. By
execution of this Agreement, the Master Collateral Agent warrants and covenants
that it currently does not hold, and during the existence of this Agreement will
not hold, any adverse interest, by way of security or otherwise, in any
Collateral and hereby waives and releases any such interest which it may have or
acquire in the future. The Master Collateral Agent expressly waives (i) any lien
which might arise in connection with unpaid fees or any lien which might arise
in connection with any other claims against any party hereto and (ii) any
possessory lien, claim or right of set-off with respect to any Collateral.

MISCELLANEOUS

addition to the actions and instruments specifically provided for herein, as may
be reasonably requested or required by the Controlling Party to effectuate the
purpose or provisions of this Agreement or to confirm or perfect any transaction
described or contemplated herein. The parties hereto will make any changes
required by the Office of Thrift Supervision if mutually agreed by the parties
hereto and if there is no such mutual agreement, the Bank, WFAL 2 and the
Controlling Party agree to terminate this Agreement.
Section 8.02. Waiver. Any waiver by any party of any provision of this
Agreement or any right, remedy or option hereunder shall only prevent and stop
such party from thereafter enforcing such provision, right, remedy or option if
such waiver is given in writing and only as to the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which such waiver was given. The failure or refusal of any
party hereto to insist in any one or more instances, or in a course of dealing,
upon the strict performance of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement
by any party hereto or the partial exercise of any right, remedy or option
hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of any such term
or provision, but the same shall continue in full force and effect.
Section 8.03. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, changed,
modified, altered or terminated only by written instrument or written
instruments signed by each of the parties hereto; provided that the consent of
the Master Collateral Agent shall not be withheld or delayed with respect to any
amendment that does not adversely affect the Master Collateral Agent and,
provided further that Schedule A hereto may be amended or replaced as set forth
in

28
Section 2.03 (d) hereof. The Original Agreement, as amended and restated hereby,
shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 8.04. Severability. In the event that any provision of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any party hereto or to any circumstance
or in any jurisdiction governing this Agreement shall, to any extent, be invalid
or unenforceable under any applicable statute, regulation or rule of law, then
such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it is invalid or
unenforceable and the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of any
such invalid or unenforceable provision to the parties, jurisdictions or
circumstances other than to whom or to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby nor shall the same affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. The parties
hereto further agree that the holding by any court of competent jurisdiction
that any remedy pursued by the Master Collateral Agent or by the Controlling
Party hereunder is unavailable or unenforceable shall not affect in any way the
ability of the Master Collateral Agent or the Controlling Party to pursue any
other remedy available to it.
Section 8.05. Notices. All notices, demands, certificates, requests and
communications hereunder ("notices") shall be in writing and shall be effective
