Conveyance of Mortgage Loans, Pooled Certificates and Other Assets
Section 2.1. Conveyance
----------
(a) As of the Cut-off Date, the Depositor hereby sells, transfers,
assigns, sets over and conveys, without recourse, to the Issuer for the benefit
of the Owners, the Certificateholders and the Note Insurer, subject to the terms
of this Agreement, all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to
the Trust Estate, including the Mortgage Loans and the Pooled Certificates and
all principal and interest due on each such Mortgage Loan and Pooled Certificate
after the respective Cut-off Date; provided, however, that the Depositor
reserves and retains all of its right, title and interest in and to principal
and interest due on each such Mortgage Loan and Pooled Certificate and all
prepayments collected on each Mortgage Loan on or prior to the respective
Cut-off Date. In connection with such purchase, sale, transfer and assignment
(i) pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Collateral Sale Agreement, the Depositor
hereby assigns to the Issuer all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in
its rights and benefits, but none of its obligations or burdens, under the
Collateral Sale Agreement, including without limitation, the delivery
requirements, representations, warranties and the cure, repurchase or
substitution obligations of the Seller under the Collateral Sale Agreement
(including, all rights of the Depositor in and to the agreements listed in
Exhibit E thereto) and the rights to enforce the representations and warrantees
of sellers of the Mortgage Loans to the Seller, to the extent assignable and
(ii) the Depositor hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and conveys to
the Issuer all of the Depositor's rights, title and interest in its rights and
benefits, but subject to the obligations and burdens, under the Swap Agreements.
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Trust
Estate to the Issuer by the Depositor as provided in this Section 2.1 be, and be
construed as, an absolute sale of the Trust Estate. It is, further, not the
intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Trust
Estate by the Depositor to the Issuer to secure a debt or other obligation of
the Depositor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the
parties, the Trust Estate is held to be the property of the Depositor, or if for
any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest
in the Trust Estate, then (w) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a
security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC as in
effect in the State of New York; (x) the transfer of the assets provided for
herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the Issuer of a
security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to
the Trust Estate and all amounts payable on the Trust Estate 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; (y) the
possession by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or their respective agents of
the Mortgage Notes, Pooled Certificates and Swap Agreements and such other items
of property as 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 UCC as in
effect in the State of New York and the UCC of any other applicable
jurisdiction; and (z) 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, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, for the purpose of perfecting such
security interest under applicable law. Any assignment of the interest of the
Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be
deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created hereby. The
Depositor and the Issuer shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement,
take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Trust Estate, such security interest
would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under
applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this
Agreement.
The Depositor and the Indenture Trustee at the direction and expense of the
Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions
as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a
security interest in the Trust Estate, such security interest would be deemed to
be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will
be maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. In connection
herewith, the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights and remedies of a
secured party and creditor under the UCC as in force in the relevant
jurisdiction.
(b) Pursuant to Section 2.1(c) of the Collateral Sale Agreement, the Seller
has agreed to take the actions specified in Part I of Exhibit D attached hereto.
(c) The actions required pursuant to Part I of Exhibit D hereto are not,
and shall not be construed to be, conditions subsequent; the parties hereto
declaring that the sale of the Mortgage Loans and Pooled Certificates to be made
hereunder on the Closing Date shall be a completed, absolute and final sale.
Section 2.2. Acceptance by Indenture Trustee; Certain Substitutions of
------------------------------------------------------------
Mortgage Loans; Certification by Indenture Trustee
----------------------------------------------------
(a) The Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer and as Indenture
Trustee, agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date an acknowledgment of
receipt of the items specified in Part I of Exhibit D and delivered by or at the
direction of the Issuer with respect to the Trust in the form attached as
Exhibit B hereto, and declares that it will hold such documents and any
amendments, replacements or supplements thereto, as well as any other assets
included in the definition of the Trust Estate and delivered to the Indenture
Trustee, as Indenture Trustee upon and subject to the conditions set forth
herein and in the Indenture for the benefit of the Owners, the
Certificateholders and the Note Insurer. The Indenture Trustee agrees, for the
benefit of the Owners, the Certificateholders and the Note Insurer, to review
such items with respect to the Issuer delivered to it (i) within 45 days after
the Closing Date and (ii) within 180 days after the Closing Date with respect to
each Mortgage Loan as to which the assignment is required to be recorded (or,
with respect to any document delivered after the Closing Date pursuant to Part I
of Exhibit D, within 45 days of receipt and with respect to any Qualified
Replacement Mortgage, within 45 days after the related Replacement Cut-off Date)
and to deliver to the Depositor, the Seller and the Note Insurer a pool
certification (the "Pool Certification") in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
C to the effect that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Schedule of
Mortgage Loans (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan
specifically identified in such Pool Certification as not covered by such Pool
Certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to
Part I of Exhibit D are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been
reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged, torn or otherwise
physically altered and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its
examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth on
the Schedule of Mortgage Loans as to loan number, address (including state) of
the Property, the Original Principal Balance, whether such Mortgage Loan is an
ARM or a 5/1 ARM Mortgage Loan, for each 5/1 ARM Mortgage Loan, the Coupon Rate,
and for each ARM and for each 5/1 ARM, the Index, the Gross Margin, the Periodic
Rate Cap, the Lifetime Cap, the Lifetime Floor, and the maturity date,
accurately reflects the information set forth in the related File. The Indenture
Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any
such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that they
are genuine, valid, recordable, sufficient, suitable, insurable, collectable,
enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face, nor shall the Indenture Trustee be
under any duty to determine independently whether there are any intervening
assignments or assumption or modification agreements with respect to any
Mortgage Loan.
(b) If the Indenture Trustee during such 45-day or 180 day period finds any
document constituting a part of a File which is not executed, has not been
received, or is unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Schedule of
Mortgage Loans or that any Mortgage Loan does not conform in a material respect
to the description thereof as set forth in the Schedule of Mortgage Loans as set
forth in Section 2.2(a)(iii) above, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly so
notify the Depositor, the Seller and the Note Insurer. In the event any Pool
Certification delivered after the 180 day period reflects any exceptions, the
Indenture Trustee shall deliver Pool Certifications on each subsequent Payment
Date to the Note Insurer, the Depositor, and the Seller until all such
exceptions have been cured (or waived by the Note Insurer) or the related
Mortgage Loans have been repurchased. In performing any such review, the
Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on the purported genuineness of any such
document and any signature thereon. It is understood that the scope of the
Indenture Trustee's review of the items delivered by or on behalf of the
Depositor pursuant to Part I of Exhibit D is limited solely to confirming that
the documents listed in Part I of Exhibit D have been executed and received,
where required to be original documents are originals, relate to the Files
identified in the Schedule of Mortgage Loans and conform materially to the
description thereof in the Schedule of Mortgage Loans as set forth in Section
2.2(a)(iii) above. The Seller has agreed, pursuant to the Collateral Sale
Agreement, to use reasonable efforts to remedy a material defect in a document
constituting part of a File of which it is so notified by the Indenture Trustee
or the Note Insurer. If, however, within 90 days after the Indenture Trustee's
or the Note Insurer's notice to the Seller respecting such defect, the Seller
has not remedied, or caused to be remedied, the defect and the defect materially
and adversely affects the interest of the Owners or the Note Insurer in the
related Mortgage Loan, the Depositor, at the Depositor's option, will (or will
cause the Seller to) on the next succeeding Remittance Date either (i) if within
two years of the Closing Date, substitute in lieu of such Mortgage Loan a
Qualified Replacement Mortgage and deliver any Substitution Adjustment Amount
applicable thereto to the Servicer for deposit in the Servicer Collection
Account or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan at a purchase price equal to the
Loan Purchase Price thereof, which purchase price shall be delivered to the
Servicer for deposit in the Servicer Collection Account, and provided, in either
case, that an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, to the
effect that such substitution or purchase will not have a material adverse tax
consequence to the Noteholders or the Note Insurer, is delivered in connection
therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any exception described in the
Indenture Trustee's 45-day or 180-day review relates solely to the inability of
the Seller to deliver the original security instrument, or intervening
assignments thereof that are required to be recorded, or a certified copy,
because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy, have not been
returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to
purchase such Mortgage Loan if the Seller delivers such original documents or
certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after
the Closing Date.
(c) Notwithstanding any requirement to the contrary herein, at any time the
Indenture Trustee discovers that with respect to any file any of the documents
required to be delivered pursuant to Part I of Exhibit D (i) have not been
executed or received, (ii) are not original documents where required to be
original documents, or (iii) fail to conform materially to the description
thereof in the Schedule of Mortgage Loans as set forth in Section 2.2(a)(iii)
hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall be permitted to seek the remedies described
in Section 2.2(b).
Section 2.3. Cooperation Procedures
-----------------------
(a) The Depositor shall or shall cause the Seller to, in connection with
the delivery of each Qualified Replacement Mortgage, provide the Indenture
Trustee with the information as of the Replacement Cut-Off Date set forth in the
Schedule of Mortgage Loans with respect to such Qualified Replacement Mortgage.
(b) The Depositor, the Servicer, the Issuer, and the Indenture Trustee
covenant to provide each other and the Note Insurer with all data and
information required to be provided by them hereunder at the times required
hereunder, and additionally covenant to reasonably cooperate with each other and
with the Note Insurer in providing any additional information required by any of
them in connection with their respective duties hereunder. The Depositor
covenants to cause the Seller to provide such information and reasonable
cooperation.

contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Issuer is a party or
by which the Issuer is bound or violate any statute or any order, rule or

ARTICLE IV
Servicing and Administration
of Mortgage Loans
Section 4.1. General Servicing Procedures. (a) The Servicer shall master
----------------------------
service and administer the various agreements with the Subservicers to service
the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Issuer and for the benefit of the Indenture
Trustee, the Note Insurer, Certificateholders and Noteholders in accordance with
the terms hereof and in the same manner in which, and with the same care, skill,
prudence and diligence with which, it master services and administers similar
servicing agreements for mortgage loans for other portfolios, and shall have
full power and authority to do or cause to be done any and all things in
connection with such master servicing and administration which it may deem
necessary or desirable, including, without limitation, the power and authority
to bring actions and defend the Trust Estate on behalf of the Issuer in order to
enforce the terms of the Mortgage Notes and such servicing agreements. The
Servicer may perform its master servicing responsibilities through agents or
independent contractors, but shall not thereby be released from any of its
responsibilities hereunder, and the Servicer shall diligently pursue all of its
rights against such agents or independent contractors.
(b) The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect or cause to be
collected 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 the Note Insurance Policy, any FHA
insurance policy or VA guaranty, any hazard insurance policy, and federal flood
insurance, cause to be followed such collection procedures as are followed with
respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held in
portfolios of responsible mortgage lenders in the local areas where each
Property is located. The Servicer shall enforce "due-on-sale" clauses with
respect to the related Mortgage Loans, to the extent permitted by law, subject
to the provisions set forth in Section 4.12.
(c) Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i)
waive or cause to be waived any assumption fee or late payment charge in
connection with the prepayment of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) only upon
determining that the coverage of any applicable Insurance Policy or guaranty
related to a Mortgage Loan will not be materially adversely affected, arrange a
schedule, running for no more than 180 days after the first delinquent Due Date,
for payment of any delinquent installment on any Mortgage Note or for the
liquidation of delinquent items (provided that coverage of applicable Insurance
Policies will not be materially adversely affected).
(d) Consistent with the terms of this Section 4.1, the Servicer may waive,
modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of
strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any
Mortgagor if it has determined, exercising its good faith business judgment in
the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan,
that the security for, and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage
Loan would not be adversely affected by such waiver, modification, postponement
or indulgence; provided, however, that (unless the Mortgagor is in default with
respect to the Mortgage Loan or in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer such
default is imminent) the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect
to any Mortgage Loan that would (i) change the applicable Coupon Rate, defer or
forgive the payment of any principal or interest, reduce the outstanding
principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or extend the final
maturity date with respect to such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) be inconsistent with
the terms of the Note Insurance Policy, and any applicable FHA insurance policy
or VA guaranty, hazard insurance policy or federal flood insurance policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not permit any modification
with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would both constitute a sale or exchange
of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code (including
any proposed, temporary or final regulations promulgated thereunder) (other than
in connection with a proposed conveyance or assumption of such Mortgage Loan
that is treated as a Prepayment or in a default situation or upon receipt of
advice of counsel that such a sale or exchange would not have an adverse tax
effect on the Issuer, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders).
(e) The Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered
on behalf of the Noteholders, and the Issuer or any of them, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release,
discharge or modification, assignments of Mortgages and endorsements of Mortgage
Notes in connection with refinancings (in jurisdictions where such assignments
are the customary and usual standard of practice of mortgage lenders) and all
other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with
respect to the Properties. The Indenture Trustee shall execute and furnish to
the Servicer, at the Servicer's direction, any powers of attorney and other
documents prepared by the Servicer and determined by the Servicer to be
necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its supervisory,
servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.
(f) The Servicer shall, and shall cause each Subservicer to, obtain (to the
extent generally commercially available from time to time) and maintain fidelity
bond and errors and omissions coverage acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac
with respect to their obligations under this Agreement and the applicable
Subservicing Agreement, respectively. The Servicer or each Subservicer, as
applicable, shall establish escrow accounts for, or pay when due (by means of an
advance), any tax liens in connection with the Properties that are not paid by
the Mortgagors when due to the extent that any such payment would not constitute
a Nonrecoverable Advance when made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer
shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would
both constitute a sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of
Section 1001 of the Code (including any proposed, temporary or final regulations
promulgated thereunder) (other than in connection with a proposed conveyance or
assumption of such Mortgage Loan that is treated as a Principal Prepayment or in
a default situation or upon receipt of advice of counsel that such a sale or
exchange would not have an adverse tax effect on the Issuer, the Noteholders and
the Certificateholders). The Servicer shall be entitled to approve a request
from a Mortgagor for a partial release of the related Property, the granting of
an easement thereon in favor of another Person, any alteration or demolition of
the related Property or other similar matters if it has determined, exercising
its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it would if it were the
owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the timely and
full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected
thereby.
(g) In connection with the servicing and administering of each Mortgage
Loan, the Servicer and any affiliate of the Servicer (i) may perform services
such as appraisals, default management and brokerage services that are not
customarily provided by servicers of mortgage loans, and shall be entitled to
reasonable compensation therefor and (ii) may, at its own discretion and on
behalf of the Issuer, obtain credit information in the form of a "credit score"
from a credit repository.
Section 4.2 [Reserved].
Section 4.3 Subservicing Agreements Between Servicer and Subservicers. The
---------------------------------------------------------
Servicer may directly or indirectly enter into Subservicing Agreements for any
servicing and administration of Mortgage Loans (to the extent permitted in any
applicable agreement governing the servicing of Mortgage Loans) with any
institution which is in compliance with the laws of each state necessary to
enable it to perform its obligations under such Subservicing Agreement and
(x)(i) has been designated an approved seller-servicer by Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx
Xxx for first mortgage loans and (ii) has equity of at least $15,000,000, as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by a firm
of certified public accountants of national reputation or (y) is a Servicer
Affiliate or (z) is approved by the Note Insurer. The Servicer shall give notice
to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Rating Agencies
and the Note Insurer of the appointment of any Subservicer. For purposes of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage
Loans when any such Subservicer has received such payments. Any such
Subservicing Agreement shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions
of this Agreement. The Subservicers as of the Closing Date and the Mortgage
Loans which they subservice are identified on the Schedule of Mortgage Loans.
Section 4.4 Successor Subservicers. The Servicer shall be entitled to
-----------------------
terminate any Subservicing Agreement on any agreement between a Subservicer and
the Issuer in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Subservicing
Agreement and to either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or
enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which qualifies
under Section 4.3.
Section 4.5 [Reserved].
Section 4.6 [Reserved].
Section 4.7 Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreement by
-------------------------------------------------------------
Indenture Trustee. In the event the Servicer, or any successor Servicer, shall
-----------------
for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of a Servicer
Termination Event), the Indenture Trustee as Indenture Trustee hereunder or its
designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the
Servicer under the Subservicing Agreements with respect to the related Mortgage
Loans unless the Indenture Trustee elects to terminate the Subservicing
Agreements with respect to such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms
thereof. The Indenture Trustee, its designee or the successor Subservicer for
the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Servicer's
interest therein with respect to the related Mortgage Loans and to have replaced
the Servicer as a party to the Subservicing Agreements to the same extent as if
the rights and duties under the Subservicing Agreements relating to such
Mortgage Loans had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the
Subservicing Agreements with respect to the Servicer's duties to be performed
prior to its termination hereunder.
The Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Indenture Trustee,
deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to the
Subservicing Agreements and the Mortgage Loans then being master serviced by the
Servicer and an accounting of amounts collected and held by the Servicer and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
the rights and duties under the related Subservicing Agreements relating to such
Mortgage Loans to the assuming party.
Section 4.8 Principal and Interest Accounts.
----------------------------------
(a) (i) The Servicer shall cause to be established and maintained by each
Subservicer under the Servicer's supervision at Designated Depository
Institutions one or more separate accounts, each a Principal and Interest
Account, and shall deposit or cause to be deposited therein daily collections
other than amounts escrowed for taxes and insurance related to the Mortgage
Loans required by the Subservicing Agreement to be so deposited no later than
the first Business Day after receipt. Proceeds received with respect to
individual Mortgage Loans from any title, hazard, or FHA insurance policy, VA
guaranty, primary mortgage guaranty insurance policy, or other Insurance Policy
covering such Mortgage Loans shall be deposited first into one or more separate
escrow accounts to be held at Designated Depository Institutions if required for
the restoration or repair of the related Property. Proceeds from such Insurance
Policies not so applied shall be deposited in the related Principal and Interest
Account, and shall be applied to the balances of the related Mortgage Loans as
payments of interest and principal.
(b) The Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and to issue
drafts against the Principal and Interest Accounts for the purposes required or
permitted by this Agreement. Each Principal and Interest Account shall bear a
designation clearly showing the respective interests of the applicable
Subservicer, the Indenture Trustee, and the Servicer, in substantially the
following forms:
(i) [Subservicer's Name], as agent for Indenture Trustee and/or bailee
of principal and interest custodial account for PNC Mortgage Securities
Corp., its successors and assigns, for various owners of interests in TMA
Mortgage Funding Trust I mortgage-backed pools; or
(ii) [Subservicer's Name] in trust for PNC Mortgage Securities Corp.;
(c) The Servicer hereby undertakes to assure remittance to the Servicer
Collection Account of all amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans that have been
collected by any Subservicer and are due to the Servicer Collection Account
pursuant to Section 4.8A of this Agreement.
(d) Investment earnings on funds held in the Principal and Interest
Accounts are for the account of the Subservicers or the Servicer, as applicable.
Section 4.8A. The Servicer Collection Account; Eligible Investments.
-----------------------------------------------------
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain at one or more Designated
Depository Institutions an account (the "Servicer Collection Account") in the
name of the Trust, which shall be a segregated account held in trust for the
benefit of the Owners of the Notes and the Note Insurer.
(b) Not later than the Subservicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall
withdraw or direct the withdrawal of funds in the Principal and Interest
Accounts, for deposit in the Servicer Collection Account, in an amount
representing:
(i) Scheduled installments of principal and interest on the Mortgage
Loans received or advanced by the applicable Subservicers which were due on
the Due Date prior to such Subservicer Remittance Date, net of Subservicing
Fees due the applicable Subservicers and less any amounts to be withdrawn
later by the applicable Subservicers from the applicable Principal and
Interest Accounts; and
(ii) Prepayments and the proceeds of other types of liquidations of
the Mortgage Loans received by the applicable Subservicer for such Mortgage
Loans during the applicable Remittance Period, with interest to the date of
Prepayment or liquidation less any amounts to be withdrawn later by the
applicable Subservicers.
(c) At its option, the Servicer may invest funds on deposit in the Servicer
Collection Account during any period prior to the Subservicer Remittances Date
only as set forth in Section 4.8A(d). The Servicer shall bear any and all losses
incurred on any investments made with such funds and shall be entitled to retain
all gains realized on such investments as additional servicing compensation. Not
later than the Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit such funds, net of any
gains earned thereon to the Indenture Trustee for deposit, in the Trustee
Collection Account.
(d) Funds held in the Servicer Collection Account shall be invested in (i)
one or more Eligible Investments which shall in no event mature later than the
Business Day prior to the related Remittance Date (except if such Eligible
Investments are obligations of the Indenture Trustee, such Eligible Investments
may mature on the Remittance Date), or (ii) such other instruments as shall be
required to maintain the ratings of the Notes, without regard to the Note
Insurance Policy, and acceptable to the Note Insurer.
Section 4.9. Delinquency Advances and Servicing Advances.
-----------------------------------------------
(a) To the extent described below, the Servicer is obligated to advance its
own funds to the Servicer Collection Account to cover any shortfall between (i)
payments scheduled to be received in respect of Mortgage Loans, and (ii) the
amounts actually deposited in the Servicer Collection Account on account of such
payments; the Servicer's obligation to make any advance or advances described in
this Section 4.9 is effective only to the extent that such advance is, in the
good faith judgment of the Servicer made on or before the Remittance Date,
reimbursable from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds of the related
Mortgage Loans or recoverable as late Monthly Payments with respect to the
related Mortgage Loans or otherwise. Such amounts so advanced are "Delinquency
Advances."
(b) On or before each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall determine whether
or not it will make a Delinquency Advance on the related Remittance Date (in the
event that the applicable Subservicer fails to make such advances) and shall
furnish a written statement to the Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee, the
Paying Agent, if different than the Indenture Trustee, and to any Noteholder
requesting the same, setting forth the aggregate amount to be remitted on such
Remittance Date on account of principal and interest in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, stated separately. In the event that full scheduled amounts of principal
and interest in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall not have been received by or
on behalf of the Servicer prior to such Remittance Date and the Servicer shall
have determined that a Delinquency Advance shall be made in accordance with this
Section 4.9, the Servicer shall so specify and shall specify the aggregate
amount of such advance.
(c) If the amount on deposit in a Subservicer's Principal and Interest
Account as of any Subservicer Remittance Date is less than the collections from
Mortgage Loans with respect to the related Remittance Period, the Servicer shall
cause the Subservicer to deposit to such Subservicer's Principal and Interest
Account a sufficient amount of such Subservicer's own funds to make such amount
equal to the related Subservicer Monthly Remittance for such Subservicer
Remittance Date. Such amounts of the Subservicer's own funds so deposited are
also Delinquency Advances.
(d) The Servicer will pay all reasonable and customary "out-of-pocket"
costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) incurred in the performance
of its servicing obligations including, but not limited to, the cost of (i)
advancing Preservation Expenses, (ii) any enforcement or judicial proceedings,
including foreclosures, (iii) the management and liquidation of REO Property
(including, without limitation, advancing realtors' commissions) and (iv)
advancing taxes, insurance and other charges against the Property. Each such
expenditure will constitute a "Servicing Advance." The Servicer may recover
Servicing Advances from the Mortgagors to the extent permitted by the Mortgage
Loans or, if not theretofore recovered from the Mortgagor on whose behalf such
Servicing Advance was made, from Liquidation Proceeds realized upon the
liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan. Delinquency Advances shall be
reimbursed as provided in Section 4.10A.
(e) In the event that the Servicer shall be required to make a Delinquency
Advance, it shall on the Remittance Date either (i) deposit in the Servicer
Collection Account an amount equal to such Delinquency Advance, (ii) make an
appropriate entry in the records of the Servicer Collection Account that funds
in such account being held for future distribution or withdrawal have been, as
permitted by this Section 4.9, used by the Servicer to make such Delinquency
Advance, or (iii) make advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii)
aggregating the amount of such Delinquency Advance. Any funds being held for
future distribution to Noteholders and so used shall be replaced by the Servicer
by deposit in the Servicer Collection Account on the Subservicer Remittance Date
to the extent that funds in the Servicer Collection Account on such Subservicer
Remittance Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be less than payments
to Noteholders required to be made on such date with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. Under each Subservicing Agreement, the Servicer is entitled to receive
from the Principal and Interest Accounts established by the Subservicers amounts
received by the applicable Subservicers on particular Mortgage Loans as late
payments of principal and interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance
Proceeds and respecting which the Servicer has made an unreimbursed Delinquency
Advance. The Servicer is also entitled to receive other amounts from the related
Principal and Interest Accounts established by the Subservicers to reimburse
itself for prior Nonrecoverable Advances respecting Mortgage Loans serviced by
such Subservicers. The Servicer shall deposit these amounts in the Servicer
Collection Account prior to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.8A. In accordance
with Section 4.9A, Delinquency Advances are reimbursable to the Servicer from
cash in the Servicer Collection Account to the extent that the Servicer shall
determine that any such advances previously made are Nonrecoverable Advances
pursuant to Sections 4.9 and 4.9A.
Section 4.9A Nonrecoverable Advances. Any advance previously made by a
-------------------------
Subservicer pursuant to its Subservicing Agreement with respect to a Mortgage
Loan or by the Servicer that the Servicer shall determine in its good faith
judgment not to be ultimately recoverable from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation
Proceeds or otherwise with respect to such Mortgage Loan or recoverable as late
Monthly Payments with respect to such Mortgage Loan, shall be a "Nonrecoverable
Advance." The determination by the Servicer that it or the applicable
Subservicer has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any advance would
constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer's
Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Note
Insurer on the Subservicer Remittance Date and shall detail the reasons for such
determination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any
insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, or any other agreement relating
to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer is a party, (a) the Servicer, and
each Subservicer shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any advance
that, after reasonable inquiry and in its sole discretion, the Servicer, or such
Subservicer shall determine would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and (b) the
Servicer, and each Subservicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any
advance as provided in Section 4.9 of this Agreement.
Section 4.10. Compensating Interest. A full month's interest at a rate
----------------------
equal to the applicable Coupon Rate with respect to each Mortgage Loan less the
sum of
(i) the Monthly Servicing Fee and (ii) Subservicing Fee, is due to the
Indenture Trustee on the Loan Balance of each Mortgage Loan as of the
beginning of each Remittance Period. If a Prepayment of a Mortgage Loan
occurs during any calendar month, any difference between the interest
collected from the Mortgagor during such calendar month and the full
month's interest at the applicable Coupon Rate less the Subservicing Fee
("Compensating Interest") shall be deposited by each Subservicer prior to
the Subservicer Remittance Date to the Principal and Interest Account and
shall be included in the related Subservicer Monthly Remittance to be
remitted to, or drafted by, the Servicer on the Subservicer Remittance
Date; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall not be required to
-------- -------
deposit Compensating Interest in respect of Prepayments in an amount that
exceeds the Subservicing Fee received by such Subservicer for the prior
calendar month with respect to the Mortgage Loan subserviced by it. If a
Subservicer fails to make some or all of a required Compensating Interest
payment, the Servicer will pay, up to the amount of its Servicing Fee with
respect to all Mortgage Loans being subserviced by such Subservicer, plus
investment income in the Servicer Collection Account relating to all
Mortgage Loans being subserviced by such Subservicer, the Compensating
Interest payment that should have been made by such Subservicer, but was
not, by depositing such Compensating Interest into the Servicer Collection
Account on the Remittance Date. Neither the Subservicers nor the Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement for Compensating Interest payments.
Section 4.10A Permitted Withdrawals from the Servicer Collection Account
-------------------------------------------------------------
and Principal and Interest Accounts.
--------------------------------------
(a) The Servicer is authorized to make withdrawals, from time to time, from
the Servicer Collection Account or the Principal and Interest Accounts
established by the Subservicers of amounts deposited therein in respect of the
Mortgage Loans, as follows:
(i) To reimburse itself or the applicable Subservicer for Delinquency
Advances made pursuant to Section 4.9 of this Agreement or a Subservicing
Agreement, such right to reimbursement pursuant to this paragraph (i) being
limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans (including, for
this purpose, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) which represent
late recoveries of principal and/or interest respecting which any such
Delinquency Advance was made;
(ii) To reimburse itself or the applicable Subservicer for amounts
expended by or for the account of the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.9 or
amounts expended by such Subservicer pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement
or an agreement between a Subservicer and the Issuer in connection with the
restoration of property damaged by an uninsured cause or in connection with
the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan;
(iii) To pay to itself, with respect to the related Mortgage Loans,
the Servicing Fee as to which no prior withdrawals from funds deposited by
the Servicer have been made;
(iv) To reimburse itself or the applicable Subservicer for advances
made with respect to related Mortgage Loans which the Servicer has
determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances;
(v) To pay to itself reinvestment earnings deposited or earned in the
Servicer Collection Account to which it is entitled and to reimburse itself
for expenses incurred by and reimbursable to it pursuant to Sections 4.9,
4.24 and 6.3;
(vi) To remit to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Trustee
Collection Account, not later than the related Remittance Date, the amounts
specified in Section 5.2(a);
(vii) To withdraw amounts that have been deposited in error; and
(viii) After making or providing for the above withdrawals, to clear
and terminate the Servicer Collection Account and the Principal and
Interest Accounts following termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 8.1. Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to paragraphs
(i) and (ii), the Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited to collections
or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer or the
applicable Subservicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting for each
Mortgage Loan, for the purpose of justifying any such withdrawals.
(b) The Servicer is authorized to make withdrawals from time to time
from the Servicer Collection Account to reimburse itself for advances it has
made pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof that it has determined to be Nonrecoverable
Advances.
Section 4.11. Maintenance of Insurance; Collections Thereunder.
----------------------------------------------------
(a) The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep, and to
cause the Subservicers to keep, in full force and effect each primary mortgage
guaranty insurance policy required with respect to a Mortgage Loan, in the
manner set forth in the applicable Subservicing Agreement, until no longer
required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall have no obligation
to maintain such primary mortgage guaranty insurance policy for a Mortgage Loan
for which the outstanding Principal Balance thereof at any time subsequent to
origination was 80% or less of the sum of (i) the value of the related Property
(as determined by the appraisal obtained at the time of origination and (ii) the
value of any Additional Collateral (as determined at the time of origination)),
unless required by applicable law.
(b) Unless required by applicable law, the Servicer shall not cancel or
refuse to renew, or allow any Subservicer under its supervision to cancel or
refuse to renew, any such primary mortgage guaranty insurance policy in effect
at the date of the initial issuance of the Notes that is required to be kept in
force hereunder; provided, however, that neither the Servicer nor any
Subservicer shall advance funds for the payment of any premium due under any
primary mortgage guaranty insurance if it shall determine that such an advance
would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
(c) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan (other
than a Cooperative Loan) fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an
amount which is not less than the original principal balance of such Mortgage
Loan, except in cases approved by the Servicer in which such amount exceeds the
value of the improvements to the Property. The Servicer shall also require fire
and hazard insurance with extended coverage in a comparable amount on property
acquired upon foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan
(other than a Cooperative Loan). Any amounts collected under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related
Property) shall be deposited into the Principal and Interest Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to the applicable Subservicing Agreement and pursuant to
Sections 4.8, 4.8A and 4.10A hereof.
(d) Where any part of any improvement to the Property (other than with
respect to a Cooperative Loan) is located in a federally designated special
flood hazard area and in a community which participates in the National Flood
Insurance Program at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be provided. The hazard insurance
coverage required by this Section 4.11 may be met with blanket policies
providing protection equivalent to individual policies otherwise required. The
Servicer or the applicable Subservicer shall be responsible for paying any
deductible amount on any such blanket policy. The Servicer agrees to present, or
cause to be presented, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Indenture
Trustee, the Noteholders, the Note Insurer, and the Swap Counterparty, claims
under the hazard insurance policy respecting any Mortgage Loan, and in this
regard to take such reasonable actions as shall be necessary to permit recovery
under such policy.
(e) Any unreimbursed costs incurred in maintaining any insurance described
in this Section 4.11 shall be recoverable as an advance by the Servicer from the
Servicer Collection Account. Such insurance shall be with insurers approved by
the Servicer and Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac. Other additional insurance may be
required of a Mortgagor, in addition to that required pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance.
Section 4.12. Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and Substitution Agreements.
-----------------------------------------------------------
When any Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the
Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such prospective conveyance
and prior to the time of the consummation of such conveyance and to the extent
permitted in the applicable Subservicing Agreement or other agreement between
such Subservicer and the Issuer, exercise rights to accelerate the maturity of
such Mortgage Loan, to the extent that such acceleration is permitted by the
terms of the related Mortgage Note, under any "due-on-sale" clause applicable
thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not exercise any such right
if the due-on-sale clause, in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not
enforceable under applicable law or if such exercise would result in
non-coverage of any resulting loss that would otherwise be covered under any
insurance policy. In the event the Servicer is prohibited from exercising such
right, the Servicer is authorized to take or enter into an assumption and
modification agreement from or with the Person to whom a Property has been or is
about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the
Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable state law or unless the
Mortgage Note contains a provision allowing a qualified borrower to assume the
Mortgage Note, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon; provided that the Mortgage
Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Servicer enters such
agreement) by any related primary mortgage guaranty insurance policy. The
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 Mortgagor and becomes liable under
the Mortgage Note. The Servicer will cause the Subservicer not to enter into
any substitution or assumption with respect to a Mortgage Loan unless permitted
by applicable law and if such substitution or assumption shall constitute a
"significant modification" effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage
Loan under the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder in the
absence of advice of counsel that a significant modification of a Mortgage Loan
would not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders, the Issuer or the
Certificateholders). The Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee that any
such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to
the Indenture Trustee the original copy of such substitution or assumption
agreement and other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. In
connection with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the terms of the
related Mortgage Note shall not be changed. Any fee collected by the applicable
Subservicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability
agreement shall be retained by such Subservicer as additional servicing
compensation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, the 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 any assumption which the Servicer or the
Subservicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
Section 4.13. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
---------------------------------------------
(a) The Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert, or
cause to be foreclosed upon or comparably converted, the ownership of any
Property securing a Mortgage Loan which comes into and continues in default and
as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of
delinquent payments pursuant to Section 4.1. In lieu of such foreclosure or
other conversion, and taking into consideration the desirability of maximizing
net Liquidation Proceeds after taking into account the effect of Insurance
Proceeds upon Liquidation Proceeds, the Servicer may, to the extent consistent
with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, accept a payment of less than
the outstanding Loan Balance of a delinquent Mortgage Loan in full satisfaction
of the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note and release the lien
of the related Mortgage upon receipt of such payment. The Servicer shall not
foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert a Property if the Servicer is
aware of evidence of toxic waste, other hazardous substances or other evidence
of environmental contamination thereon and the Servicer determines that it would
be imprudent to do so. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion,
the Servicer shall cause to be followed such practices and procedures as it
shall deem necessary or advisable and as shall be normal and usual in general
mortgage servicing activities. The foregoing is subject to the provision that,
in the case of damage to a Property from an uninsured cause, the Servicer shall
not be required to advance its own funds towards the restoration of the property
unless it shall be determined in the sole judgment of the Servicer, (i) that
such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan
after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses
will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds. The Servicer shall be
responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such
proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement
thereof (as well as its normal servicing compensation) as an advance. The
Servicer shall maintain information required for tax reporting purposes
regarding any Property which is abandoned or which has been foreclosed or
otherwise comparably converted. The Servicer shall report such information to
the Internal Revenue Service and the Mortgagor in the manner required by
applicable law.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer and
the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, shall comply with all federal withholding
requirements with respect to payments to Noteholders of interest or original
issue discount that the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes
are applicable under the Code. The consent of Noteholders shall not be required
for any such withholding. Without limiting the foregoing, the Servicer agrees
that it will not withhold with respect to payments of interest or original issue
discount in the case of a Noteholder that has furnished or caused to be
furnished an effective Form W-8 or an acceptable substitute form or a successor
form and who is not a "10 percent shareholder" within the meaning of Code
Section 871(h)(3)(B) or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Code
Section 881(c)(3)(C) with respect to the Depositor. In the event the Indenture
Trustee withholds any amount from interest or original issue discount payments
or advances thereof to any Noteholder pursuant to federal withholding
requirements, the Indenture Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to such
Noteholder.
Section 4.14. Indenture Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
---------------------------------------------------------
Upon the Prepayment in full or scheduled maturity of any Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall cause such final payment to be immediately deposited in the
related Principal and Interest Account or the Servicer Collection Account. Upon
notice thereof, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the
Certificateholder by an Officer's Certificate (which certification shall include
a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such
payment which are required to be deposited in either such account have been so
deposited) and shall request delivery to it of the File. Upon receipt of such
properly completed certification and request, the Indenture Trustee shall, not
later than the fifth succeeding Business Day, release the related File to the
Servicer or the applicable Subservicer indicated in such request. With any such
Prepayment in full or other final payment, the Servicer is authorized to prepare
for and procure from the Indenture Trustee or mortgagee under the Mortgage which
secured the Mortgage Note a deed of full reconveyance or other form of
satisfaction or assignment of Mortgage and endorsement of Mortgage Note in
connection with a refinancing covering the Property, which satisfaction,
endorsed Mortgage Note or assigning document shall be delivered by the Servicer
to the person or persons entitled thereto. No expenses incurred in connection
with such satisfaction or assignment shall be payable to the Servicer by the
Indenture Trustee or from the Servicer Collection Account, or the related
Principal and Interest Account. From time to time as appropriate for the
servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose,
collection under any primary mortgage guaranty insurance, the Indenture Trustee
shall, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to it of a Servicer's Trust
Receipt in the form of Exhibit G signed by an authorized Officer of the
Servicer, release not later than the fifth Business Day following the date of
receipt of such request the related File to the Servicer or the related
Subservicer as indicated by the Servicer and shall execute such documents as
shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such Servicer's
Trust Receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the File to the Indenture
Trustee when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the
Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a Officer's
Certificate similar to that herein above specified.
Section 4.15. Compensation to the Servicer and the Subservicers.
-------------------------------------------------------
(a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled, without duplication, to receive from the Servicer Collection Account
the Servicing Fee. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred
by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor, except as specifically provided herein.
(b) As compensation for its activities under the applicable Subservicing
Agreement, the applicable Subservicer shall be entitled to withhold or withdraw
from the related Principal and Interest Account the amounts provided for in such
Subservicing Agreement. Each Subservicer is required to pay all expenses
incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities under its
Subservicing Agreement (including payment of premiums for primary mortgage
guaranty insurance policies, if required) and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in such Subservicing
Agreement and not inconsistent with this Agreement.
(c) Additional servicing compensation in the form of prepayment charges,
release fees and similar items, to the extent collected from Mortgagors, may be
retained by the applicable subservicer.
Section 4.16. Annual Statement as to Compliance. The Servicer, at its own
---------------------------------
expense, shall deliver to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the
Certificateholder, the Rating Agencies and the Note Insurer, on or before April
30 of each year, beginning with April 30, 2000, an Officer's Certificate stating
as to the signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer
during the preceding calendar year and performance under this Agreement has been
made under such officer's supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officer's
knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations
under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in
the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to
such officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of such statement shall
be provided by the Servicer to Noteholders upon request or by the Indenture
Trustee (solely to the extent that such copies are available to the Indenture
Trustee) at the expense of the Servicer, should the Servicer fail to so provide
such copies.
Section 4.17. Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report. On
---------------------------------------------------------
or before April 30 of each year, beginning with April 30, 2000, the Servicer, at
its expense, shall cause a firm of independent public accountants reasonably
acceptable to the Note Insurer to furnish a statement to the Indenture Trustee,
the Certificateholder, the Note Insurer and the Rating Agencies to the effect
that on the basis of the examination by such firm conducted substantially in
compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or
the Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Approved Title II Nonsupervised Mortgagees and
Loan Correspondents Program, the servicing by or on behalf of the Servicer of
the Mortgage Loans was conducted in compliance with the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, except for any significant exceptions or errors in records that, in
the opinion of the firm, the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers or the Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Approved Title II Nonsupervised
Mortgagees and Loan Correspondents Program requires it to report. Copies of the
annual accountants' statement and the officer's statement may be obtained by
Noteholders without charge upon written request to the Servicer.
Section 4.18. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the
-------------------------------------------------------------
Mortgage Loans. In the event that the Notes are legal for investment by
---------------
federally-insured savings associations, the Servicer shall provide to the OTS,
the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of the OTS and the FDIC access
to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans required by applicable
regulations of the OTS or the FDIC, as applicable, and shall in any event
provide such access to the documentation regarding such Mortgage Loans to the
Indenture Trustee and its representatives, such access being afforded without
charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the
offices of the Servicer designated by it.
Section 4.19. Assignment of Agreement. The Servicer may not assign its
-------------------------
obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, unless (i) it shall have
first obtained the written consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the
Note Insurer, and (ii) the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Note Insurer
shall have received a confirmation letter from each Rating Agency confirming
that no downgrade in the rating of the Notes will occur, without taking the Note
Insurance Policy into account; provided, however, that any assignee must meet
the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 7.1 hereof for a successor
servicer.
Section 4.20. ARMs. The Servicer shall enforce each ARM and 5/1 ARM
----
Mortgage Loan in accordance with its terms and shall or shall cause the
applicable Subservicers to timely calculate, record, report and apply all
interest rate adjustments in accordance with the related Mortgage Note. The
Servicer's records shall, at all times, reflect the then Coupon Rate and monthly
payment and the Servicer shall or shall cause the applicable Subservicers to
timely notify the Mortgagor of any changes to the Coupon Rate or the Mortgagor's
monthly payment.
Section 4.21. Inspections by Note Insurer and Account Parties. At any
-----------------------------------------------------
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable notice, the Note Insurer,
the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or any agents or representatives thereof may
inspect the Servicer's and each Subservicer's servicing operations and discuss
the servicing operations of the Servicer and each Subservicer with any of its
officers or directors. The costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer and each
Subservicer or its agents or representatives in connection with any such
examinations or discussions shall be paid by the Servicer or the applicable
Subservicer.
Section 4.22. Reports to the Indenture Trustee; Servicer Collection Account
-------------------------------------------------------------
Statement.
---------
(a) Not later than each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall forward a
statement to the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder and the Note Insurer
setting forth the status of the Servicer Collection Account as of the close of

(g) Any amounts properly distributed to the Holders of the Certificates

(h) On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute the amounts

Amounts to the Insured Amounts Account and (iii) shall disburse the same from

disbursed by the Indenture Trustee from proceeds of the Note Insurance Policy
shall not be considered payment by the Trust with respect to the applicable
Notes and the Note Insurer shall become the owner of such unpaid amounts due
from the Trust in respect of Insured Amounts as the deemed assignee of such
Notes, as hereinafter provided. The Indenture Trustee, on behalf of each
Noteholder, hereby agrees for the benefit of the Note Insurer that it recognizes
that to the extent the Note Insurer pays Insured Amounts, either directly or
indirectly (as by paying through the Indenture Trustee), to the applicable
Insured Amounts Account, the Note Insurer (x) will be subrogated to the rights
of the Owners of the applicable Notes, with respect to such Insured Amounts, (y)
shall be deemed to the extent of the payments so made to be an owner of such
Notes and (z) shall receive future payments from Available Interest Amounts and
Available Principal Amounts until all such Insured Payments by the Note Insurer
have been fully reimbursed, as described in the following paragraph. The Note
Insurer shall not acquire any voting rights hereunder as a result of such
subrogation, except as otherwise described herein.
It is understood and agreed that the intention of the parties is that the
Note Insurer shall not be entitled to reimbursement from Available Interest
Amounts on any Payment Date for amounts previously paid by it unless on such
Payment Date the Owners shall also have received the full amount of the related
Current Interest or from Available Principal Amounts on any Payment Date for
amounts previously paid by it unless on such Payment Date the Outstanding
principal balance of the Notes has been reduced to zero.
(j) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Note Insurance Policy,
the Note Insurer will pay any Insured Amount that is a Preference Amount (as
defined below) on the Payment Date following receipt on a Business Day by the
Note Insurer of (i) a certified copy of the order requiring the return of the
preference payment, (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Note Insurer
that such order is final and not subject to appeal, (iii) an assignment in such
form as is reasonably required by the Note Insurer, irrevocably assigning to the
Note Insurer all rights and claims of the Owner relating to or arising under the
applicable Notes against the debtor which made such preference payment or
otherwise with respect to such preference payment and (iv) appropriate
instruments to effect the appointment of the Note Insurer as agent for such
Owner in any legal proceeding related to such preference payment, such
instruments being in a form satisfactory to the Note Insurer, provided that if
such documents are received after 2:00 pm New York City time on such Business
Day, they will be deemed to be received on the following Business Day. Such
payments shall be disbursed to the receiver or trustee in bankruptcy named in
the final order of the court exercising jurisdiction on behalf of the Owner and
not to any Owner directly unless such Owner has returned principal or interest
paid on the Notes to such receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, in which case such
payment shall be paid to the Indenture Trustee for disbursement to such Owner.
"Preference Amount" means any amount previously distributed to an Owner of
a Note that is recoverable and sought to be recovered as a voidable preference
by a trustee in bankruptcy pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code (11
U.S.C.), as amended from time to time in accordance with a final nonappealable
order of a court having competent jurisdiction.
In no event shall the Note Insurer pay more than one Insured Amount in
respect of any Preference Amount. Consequently, a Noteholder shall not be
entitled to reimbursement with respect to any final order relating to the
Noteholder's receipt of funds representing Insured Amounts paid by the Note
Insurer.
Each Noteholder, by its purchase of a Note, the Servicer, the Indenture
Trustee and the Issuer hereby agree that the Note Insurer may, after making
payment of the Preference Amounts or acknowledging to Noteholders its obligation
to make payment of any Preference Amounts, at any time thereafter during the
continuation of any proceeding relating to a preference claim direct all matters
relating to such preference claim, including, without limitation, the direction
of any appeal of any order relating to such preference claim and the posting of
any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal. In
addition and without limitation of the foregoing, the Note Insurer, after making
payment of the Preference Amounts, shall be subrogated to the rights of the
Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and each Owner in the conduct of any
such preference claim, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to
an adversary proceeding action with respect to any court order issued in
connection with any such preference claim. Any expenses incurred in complying
with the direction of the Note Insurer shall be borne solely by the Note
Insurer.
(k) With respect to the Swap Agreements, if and so long as the
aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans falls below 1.5 times the
aggregate notional amount of the Swap Agreements, the selection of the
respective amortization rates by the Depositor, as provided in the Swap
Agreements, shall be subject to the approval of the Note Insurer.
Section 5.3 Investment of Accounts.
------------------------
(a) Any amounts in any Account permitted or required to be invested by
the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall be invested in Eligible

deposited by the Indenture Trustee into the Certificate Distribution Account and
distributed to the Certificateholders as Additional Certificate Interest;
(k) all income or gain from investments in any Account held by the
Indenture Trustee shall be deposited into such Account immediately upon receipt,
and any loss resulting from such investments shall be the responsibility of the
party directing the Indenture Trustee to make such Investment;
(l) the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of
any loss or any insufficiency in any Account held by the Indenture Trustee
resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein (except to
the extent that the financial institution serving as Indenture Trustee is the
obligor thereon); and
(m) if the Indenture Trustee has not received any written direction as
contemplated in Sections 5.3(e)-(i) above, the amount on deposit in the
respective accounts shall be invested in Eligible Investments listed in Clause
(h) of the definition of Eligible Investments.

successor Servicer acceptable to the Issuer and the Note Insurer. The resigning
Servicer will in a commercially reasonable manner facilitate the transfer of
servicing to the replacement Servicer prior to the expiration of such notice
period. No removal or resignation of the Servicer will become effective until
the Indenture Trustee or a successor Servicer has assumed the Servicer's
responsibilities and delegations in accordance herewith.
Section 6.3 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. Neither
---------------------------------------------------
the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the
Servicer shall be under any liability to the Issuer or the Noteholders for any
action taken by such Person or by a Subservicer or for such Person's or
Subservicer's 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 Servicer or any such Person against any breach
of representation or warranties made by it herein or protect the Servicer or any
such Person against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties
or by reason of reckless disregard of duties and obligations hereunder. The
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or the
Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind properly executed
and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer shall be
indemnified by the Trust Estate and held harmless against any loss, liability or
expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement
or the Notes, other than any loss, liability or expense relating to any Mortgage
Loan (other than as otherwise permitted in this Agreement) or incurred by reason
of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in,
prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to
service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the
Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem
necessary or desirable with respect to the Mortgage Loans, this Agreement, the
Notes or the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the
Noteholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such
action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Estate and the Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed therefor out of the Servicer Collection Account, as provided by
Section 4.8A.
Section 6.4. The Servicer not to Resign. The Servicer shall not resign
--------------------------
from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon appointment of
a successor and receipt by the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer of a letter from
each Rating Agency that such resignation and appointment will not result in a
downgrading of the Notes without regard to the Note Insurance Policy or upon a
determination that its duties thereunder are no longer permissible under
applicable law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the
Servicer shall be evidenced by an opinion of counsel to such effect which shall
be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Depositor and the Note
Insurer.
ARTICLE VII
Removal of Servicer
Section 7.1 Removal of Servicer; Resignation of Servicer.
-------------------------------------------------
(a) The Indenture Trustee (or the Owners acting on behalf of the
Indenture Trustee), with the consent of the Note Insurer or the Note Insurer
may remove the Servicer upon the occurrence of any of the following events
(each, a "Servicer Termination Event"):
(i) The Servicer shall (a) apply for or consent to the appointment of
a receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidator or custodian or similar
entity in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the
Servicer or relating to all or substantially all of its property, (b) admit
in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, (c)
make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (d) be adjudicated a
bankrupt or insolvent, (e) commence a voluntary case under the federal
bankruptcy laws of the United States of America or file a voluntary
petition or answer seeking reorganization, an arrangement with creditors or
an order for relief or seeking to take advantage of any insolvency law or
file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed
against it in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding or
(f) cause corporate action to be taken by it for the purpose of effecting
any of the foregoing; or
(ii) If without the application, approval or consent of the Servicer,
a proceeding shall be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction,
under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief
of debtors, seeking in respect of the Servicer an order for relief or an
adjudication in bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, winding up,
liquidation, a composition or arrangement with creditors, or a readjustment
of debts, the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or custodian
or similar entity with respect to the Servicer or of all or any substantial
part of its assets, or other like relief in respect thereof under any
bankruptcy or insolvency law, and, if such proceeding is being contested by
the Servicer in good faith, the same shall (a) result in the entry of an
order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment or (b) continue
undismissed or pending and unstayed for any period of 60 consecutive days;
or
(iii) The Servicer shall fail to perform in any material respect any
one or more of its obligations under this Agreement (other than its
obligations referenced in clause (vi) below) and shall continue in default
thereof for a period of 30 days after receipt by the Servicer of a written
notice from the Indenture Trustee, the Trust, any Noteholder, the Depositor
or the Note Insurer of said failure; provided, however, that if the
Servicer demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the Note Insurer
that it is diligently pursuing corrective action, the cure period may be
extended for up to an additional 30 days; or
(iv) The Servicer shall fail to cure any breach of any of its
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement which materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or the Note Insurer
for a period of 30 days after receipt by the Servicer of a written notice
from the Indenture Trustee, the Trust, any Noteholder, the Depositor or the
Note Insurer of such breach; provided, however, that if the Servicer
demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the Note Insurer that it is
diligently pursuing corrective action, the cure period shall be extended
for up to an additional 30 days; or
(v) The failure by the Servicer to make when due any required
Servicing Advance for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Servicer
of a written notice from the Indenture Trustee, the Trust, any Noteholder,
the Depositor or the Note Insurer of such failure; or
(vi) The failure by the Servicer to make any required Delinquency
Advance or to pay any Compensating Interest or to pay over the Monthly
Remittance, Loan Purchase Prices and Substitution Adjustment Amounts; then,
and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not
have been remedied, the Note Insurer or, with the consent of the Note
Insurer, the Indenture Trustee (or a majority in interest of the
Noteholders acting on behalf of the Indenture Trustee) may remove the
Servicer upon the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event. Whereupon
all of the rights (other than its rights to reimburse for advances) and
obligations, including its rights to the Servicing Fee, shall terminate. In
addition, the Note Insurer, or the majority in interest of the
Certificateholders with the consent of the Note Insurer, shall have the
right to direct the Servicer to remove any Subservicer as permitted under
the related subservicing agreement. Such termination shall be final and
binding. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice,
all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with
respect to the Notes or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and
be vested in the Indenture Trustee pursuant to and under this Section
7.1(a); and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized
and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments,
and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate
to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete
the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the
Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the Servicer's
responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer to the Indenture Trustee for administration by it of all cash
amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Servicer
Collection Account or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer Termination Event
described in clause (vi) of Section 7.1(a) shall occur, the Indenture Trustee
shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy,
immediately suspend all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer thereafter
arising under this Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have as
a Noteholder or to reimbursement of Delinquency Advances and other advances of
its own funds, and the Indenture Trustee shall act as provided in Section 7.1(c)
to carry out the duties of the Servicer, including the obligation to make any
Delinquency Advance the nonpayment of which was a Servicer Termination Event
described in clause (vi) of Section 7.1(a). Any such action taken by the
Indenture Trustee must be prior to the related Payment Date. If the Servicer
shall within two Business Days following such suspension remit to the Indenture
Trustee the amount of any Delinquency Advance the nonpayment of which by the
Servicer was a Servicer Termination Event described in clause (vi) of this
Section 7.1(a), the Indenture Trustee shall permit the Servicer to resume its
rights and obligations as Servicer hereunder. The Servicer agrees that it will
reimburse the Indenture Trustee for actual, necessary and reasonable costs
incurred by the Indenture Trustee because of action taken pursuant to clause
(vi) Section 7.1(a). The Servicer agrees that if a Servicer Termination Event as
described in clause (vi) Section 7.1(a) shall occur more than two times in any
twelve-month period, the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to
permit the Servicer to resume its rights and obligations as Servicer hereunder.
(c) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination
pursuant to Section 7.1, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor in all
respects to the Servicer under this Agreement and under the Subservicing
Agreements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and
powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
relating thereto arising after the Servicer receives such notice of termination
placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, and shall
have the same limitations on liability herein granted to the Servicer; provided,
that the Indenture Trustee shall not under any circumstances be responsible for
any representations and warranties or any liability incurred by the Servicer at
or prior to the time the Servicer was terminated as Servicer and the Indenture
Trustee shall not be obligated to make a Delinquency Advance if it is prohibited
by law from so doing. As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall be
entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which the Servicer would
have been entitled to retain or to withdraw from the Servicer Collection Account
if the Servicer had continued to act hereunder, except for those amounts due to
the Servicer as reimbursement for advances previously made or amounts previously
expended and that are otherwise reimbursable hereunder. Notwithstanding the
above, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall
if it is unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution
having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer
hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties
or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder and under any Subservicing Agreements.
Pending any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee is obligated to act in such
capacity. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Indenture
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, together with the compensation to the
Indenture Trustee, be in excess of that permitted the Servicer hereunder. The
Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such actions, consistent with
this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Section 7.2. Notification to Certificateholders. Upon any such termination
----------------------------------
or appointment of a successor to the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall give
prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Register.
ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.1 Termination of Agreement. All obligations created by this
--------------------------
Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of the payment to the Note Insurer,
the Owners and Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Indenture Trustee
and required to be paid to the Note Insurer, such Owners and/or
Certificateholders pursuant to this Agreement upon the later to occur of (a) the
final payment or other liquidation (or any advance made with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust or (b) the disposition of all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust; provided,
however, that in no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the

Purchase Option, the Bear Xxxxxxx Collateral Purchase Option or the Optional
Termination Right has been exercised and upon receipt of the Certificateholder
Purchase Price, the Bear Xxxxxxx Purchase Price, or the Optional Termination
Price, as applicable, and payment to the Note Insurer, Noteholders and
Certificateholders of all amounts due them, this Agreement shall terminate.
(b) Promptly following any such purchase, the Indenture Trustee will
release the Files for the related Mortgage Loans with appropriate endorsements
and transfer documents, to the Certificateholder, Bear Xxxxxxx or the Servicer
(or the Depositor in accordance with Section 8.4), or otherwise upon its
respective order.
Section 8.3 Disposition of Proceeds. The Indenture Trustee shall, upon
-------------------------
receipt thereof, deposit the proceeds of any liquidation or termination of the
Trust pursuant to this Article VIII to the Trustee Collection Account. All such
proceeds on deposit in the Trustee Collection Account shall be paid as provided
in Section 5.2 hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall withdraw from the Reserve
Account an amount equal to the funds on deposit therein and if the
Certificateholder Collateral Purchase Option or the Bear Xxxxxxx Collateral
Purchase Option is exercised apply such amounts against the Certificateholder
Purchase Price or the Bear Xxxxxxx Purchase Price, as applicable, and
otherwise, shall pay such amounts to the Certificate Distribution Account.
Section 8.4 Optional Termination. (a) On any Payment Date on or after
--------------------
the date on which the outstanding aggregate Loan Balance of the Mortgage Loans
is equal to or less than 5% of the Original Aggregate Loan Balance (the
"Optional Termination Date") and provided that the Swap Agreements are no longer
outstanding, the Servicer may purchase from the Trust all (but not fewer than
all) of the Mortgage Loans, the Pooled Certificates, and all Property
theretofore acquired in respect of any Mortgage by foreclosure, deed in lieu of
foreclosure, or otherwise then remaining in the Trust (the "Optional Termination
Right") at a price (the "Optional Termination Price") equal to the sum of (i)
100% of the aggregate Loan Balances of the Mortgage Loans as of the day of
purchase minus amounts remitted from the Servicer Collection Account to the
Trustee Collection Account, representing collections of principal on the
Mortgage Loans during the current Remittance Period, (ii) one month's interest
on such amount computed at the LIBOR Rate less the portion of Available Interest
Amounts available to pay interest on the Notes on such Payment Date, (iii) the
outstanding principal balance of the Pooled Certificates, the unpaid amounts due
and owing to the Note Insurer under the Insurance Agreement and reimbursement of
any draws under the Note Insurance Policy, (iv) the aggregate amount of any
related unreimbursed Delinquency Advances and Servicing Advances and (v) any
LIBOR Interest Carryover Amount. In connection with such purchase, the Servicer
shall remit to the Indenture Trustee all amounts then on deposit in Servicer
Collection Account for deposit to the Trustee Collection Account, which deposit
shall be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such purchase.
(b) Promptly following any such purchase, the Indenture Trustee will
release the Files for the related Mortgage Loans with appropriate endorsements
and transfer documents, to the extent provided by the Servicer, to the Servicer
or otherwise upon its order, and deliver the Pooled Certificates together with
executed bond powers in favor of the Servicer or its designee.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall provide the Depositor
with 30 days' prior written notice of its intention to purchase the Mortgage
Loans, Pooled Certificates and such other Property and the Depositor may, at its
option, by notice to the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee to be given not less
than 10 Business Days prior to the next succeeding Payment Date, receive a
preferential right in lieu of the Servicer to exercise the Optional Termination
Right to purchase such Mortgage Loans, Pooled Certificates and other property on
the such Payment Date, at a price equal to Optional Termination Price. If the
Depositor deposits the Optional Termination Price with the Indenture Trustee on
such Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee will release the Files for the related
Mortgage Loans with appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, to the
Depositor or otherwise upon its order, and deliver the Pooled Certificates
together with executed bond powers in favor of the Depositor or its designee.

is not required to submit an assignment for any Mortgage with respect to which
the original recording information is lacking or in states where, in the opinion

under applicable state law to transfer the benefits of the lien and security
interest in the related Property to the Indenture Trustee, as the designee of
the Purchaser.
(f) In the case of any Mortgage Loan which has been prepaid in full after
the Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans and prior to the Closing
Date, the Seller, in lieu of the foregoing, will cause the Servicer to deliver
within 15 days after the Closing Date to the Indenture Trustee and to the

Exhibit G hereto.
(g) At the direction of the Indenture Trustee, as designee of the

Section 3.1 of the Collateral Sale Agreement (and Part III of this Exhibit D)
and all its right, title and interest to principal collected and interest
accrued on such Qualified Replacement Mortgage on and after the applicable

shall reserve and retain all right, title and interest in and to payments of
principal collected and interest accrued on such Qualified Replacement Mortgage
prior to the applicable Replacement Cut-off Date.
(h) As to each Mortgage Loan reconveyed by the Indenture Trustee in
connection with the conveyance of a Qualified Replacement Mortgage therefor or a
required repurchase thereof, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Indenture
Trustee to, sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey without
recourse, on the Seller's order, all of its right, title and interest in and to
such conveyed Mortgage Loan and all the Purchaser's or the Indenture Trustee's
right, title and interest to principal collected and interest accrued on such
released Mortgage Loan after the applicable Replacement Cut-off Date; provided,
--------
however, that the Purchaser or the Indenture Trustee shall reserve and retain
-------
all right, title and interest in and to payments of principal collected and
interest accrued on such conveyed Mortgage Loan on or prior to the applicable
Replacement Cut-off Date.
(i) In connection with any transfer and assignment of a Qualified
Replacement Mortgage to the Indenture Trustee, as designee of the Purchaser, the
Seller agrees with respect to each Qualified Replacement Mortgage transferred
and assigned by it to (i) deliver or cause to be delivered without recourse to
the Indenture Trustee as designee of the Purchaser, on the date of delivery of

assignments, to the Indenture Trustee, as designee of the Purchaser, within 30
days of receipt thereof by the Seller (but in any event within one year after
the date of conveyance of such Qualified Replacement Mortgage).
(j) As to each Mortgage Loan reconveyed by the Purchaser or the Indenture
Trustee in connection with the conveyance of a Qualified Replacement Mortgage or
a required repurchase of such Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser shall or shall cause

constituted the File with respect thereto.
(k) If a Mortgage assignment is lost during the process of recording, or

may be, and thereafter cause each such assignment to be duly recorded.
(l) If the Seller receives notice from the Indenture Trustee, the
Purchaser, the Servicer or the Note Insurer pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement that any required item has not been received, and such
item materially and adversely affects the interest of the Noteholders or of the
Note Insurer in the related Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees to use reasonable
efforts to remedy a material defect in a document constituting part of a File of
which it is so notified. If, however, within 90 days after notice to it
respecting such defect the Seller has not remedied, or caused to be remedied,
the defect and the defect materially and adversely affects the interest of the
Noteholders and the Note Insurer in the related Mortgage Loan, the Seller will
on the next succeeding Remittance Date (i) substitute in lieu of such Mortgage
Loan a Qualified Replacement Mortgage and deliver the Substitution Adjustment
Amount related thereto directly to the Servicer for deposit in the Servicer
Collection Account or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan at a purchase price equal

(n) On the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser and the

Concerning the Mortgage Loans
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the

delinquent taxes, ground rents, assessments or other outstanding charges and
with respect to Cooperative Loans, no delinquent maintenance charges, affecting
the lien priority of the related Property;
(e) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been
asserted with respect thereto;
(f) As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled
or subordinated, in whole or in part, or rescinded, and the Property has not
been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, except with
respect to certain releases in part that do not materially affect the value of
the Property, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such
satisfaction, release, cancellation, subordination or rescission;
(g) Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage were not subject to an assignment or pledge, and
the Seller had good and marketable title to and was the sole owner thereof and
had full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser free and
clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
interest;
(h) Except for those delinquent Mortgage Loans referred to in (c) above,
there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under
the Mortgage or the related 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 permitting acceleration; and
neither the Seller nor any prior mortgagee has waived any default, breach,
violation or event permitting acceleration;
(i) There are no mechanics, or similar liens or claims which have been
filed for work, labor or material affecting the related Property which are or
may be liens prior to or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage;
(j) All improvements subject to the Mortgage lie wholly within the

project with respect to a condominium unit) except for de minimus encroachments
-- -------
permitted by the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide (MBS Special Servicing Option) and which has
been noted on the appraisal, and no improvements on adjoining properties
encroach upon the Property except those which are insured against by a title
insurance policy and all improvements on the property comply with all applicable
zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances;
(k) The Property (and in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the Cooperative
Unit related thereto) currently is free of damage and waste or any such damage
and waste is adequately covered by an insurance policy, and there currently is,
no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation thereof;
(l) Except with respect to nine Mortgage Loans aggregating $4,077,764.75 as
of the Mortgage Loan Cut-off Date as to which primary mortgage insurance was
subsequently purchased and which will be maintained until the Loan-to-Value
Ratio of such Mortgage Loans is reduced to 80.00%, the original Loan-to-Value
Ratio of each Mortgage Loan either was not more than 95.00% or the excess over
80.00% is insured as to payments defaults by a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
issued by a primary mortgage insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac
until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80.00%;
(m) (I) With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan,
the Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien on the property securing the
related Mortgage Note. Where the Property consists of residential real estate,
the lien includes all buildings on the Property and all installations and
mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located
in or annexed to such building, and all additions, alterations, and replacements
made at any time with respect to the foregoing. Each Property is owned by the
Mortgagor in fee simple (except with respect to common areas in the case of
condominiums, PUDs and de minimis PUDs) or by leasehold for a term longer than
----------
the term of the related Mortgage, subject only to (i) the lien of current real
property taxes and assessments, (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of
recording of such Mortgage, such exceptions being acceptable to mortgage lending
institutions generally or specifically reflected in the appraisal obtained in
connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan or referred to in
the lender's title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the related
Mortgage Loan and (iii) other matters to which like properties are commonly
subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security
intended to be provided by such Mortgage. Any security agreement, chattel
mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the
Mortgage Loan and Additional Collateral establishes and creates a valid,
subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on
the Property and any Additional Collateral for the Mortgage Loan and the Seller
has full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser; and (II) with
respect to each Cooperative Loan, the Mortgage creates a first lien or first
priority interest on the property securing the related Mortgage Note, free and
clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority over the
first lien of the Mortgage, subject only to (1) the lien of the related
Cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments, (2) the related
proprietary lease being subordinated or otherwise subject to the mortgage on the
related Cooperative building, 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 value or marketability
of the related Property;
(n) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments which
have been recorded to the extent any such recordation is required by applicable
law, and copies of which written instruments are included in the File. No other
instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no
Mortgage has been released, in whole or in part, from the terms thereof except
in connection with an assumption agreement, which assumption agreement is part
of the File and the terms of which are reflected in the Schedule of Mortgage
Loans;
(o) All buildings upon the Property are insured by a generally acceptable
insurer pursuant to standard hazard policies conforming to the requirements of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement. All such standard hazard policies are in
effect and on the date of origination contained a standard mortgagee clause
naming the related originator or the Seller, as the case may be, and their
respective successors in interest as loss payee and such clause is still in
effect and all premiums due thereon have been paid. If the Property is located
in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having
special flood hazards under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
amended, such Property is covered by flood insurance as set forth in Section
4.11(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Mortgage obligates the
Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and
expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the
Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to
seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor;
(p) Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including,
without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures,
consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws
applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material
respects;
(q) [Reserved].
(r) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine
(including in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the Cooperative Shares, the
related proprietary lease and recognition agreement) and each is the legal,
valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in all respects
in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws of
general application affecting the rights of creditors, and the Seller has taken
all action necessary to transfer such rights of enforceability to the Purchaser.
All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to
enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and
the Mortgage, and with respect to a Cooperative Loan, the related proprietary
lease and recognition agreement. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been
duly and properly executed by such parties. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan
have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances
thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have
been complied with;
(s) The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy
or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance, issued by a title
insurer qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Property is
located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in (m)(i) (1), (2) and
(3) or (ii)(1), (2) and (3) above) the related Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, and their respective successors and assigns, as to the first
priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage
Loan. The related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and their respective
successors and assigns, is the sole insured of such lender's title insurance
policy, such lender's title insurance policy is in full force and effect and
will be in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Sale and Servicing Agreement and this Agreement and will
inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and its successors and assigns without any
further act. No claims have been made under such lender's title insurance
policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage has done, by act or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's title
insurance policy;
(t) Each Mortgage Loan was originated by or for an Originator and purchased
by the Seller. Each Mortgage Loan complies in all material respects with all the
terms, conditions and requirements of such Originator's underwriting standards
in effect at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided, that
certain Mortgage Loans may have characteristics outside of such underwriting
guidelines where compensating factors are present acceptable to the mortgage
banking industry. The Mortgage Notes and Mortgages are on uniform Xxxxxx
Xxx/Xxxxxxx Mac instruments or are on forms acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx
Mac. The Mortgage Loan bears interest at a the rate as set forth in the Schedule
of Mortgage Loans, and monthly payments under the related Mortgage Note are due
and payable on the first day of each month. The Mortgage Loan contains the usual
and enforceable provisions of the Originator at the time of origination for the
acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal amount if the related
Property is sold without the prior consent of the mortgagee thereunder;
(u) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such
as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
realization against the Property of the benefits of the security provided
thereby, including, (1) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust,
by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is no
homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere
with the right to sell the Property at a trustee's sale or the right to
foreclose the Mortgage;
(v) If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified
if required under applicable law to act 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 Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of
trust, except in connection with a trustees sale or attempted sale after default
by the Mortgagor;
(w) The File contains an appraisal of the related Property made and signed
prior to the final approval of the mortgage loan application by a qualified
appraiser, approved by the originator of the related Mortgage Loan. The
appraisal is in a form generally acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac;
(x) The related Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any
collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage, any related Additional
Collateral, and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or
chattel mortgage referred to above and such collateral does not serve as
security for any other obligation;
(y) The related Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by
applicable law with respect to the making of such mortgage loans;
(z) [Reserved];
(aa) Each Mortgage Loan has an original term to maturity of not more than
30 years with interest payable in arrears on the first day of each month. No
Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative
amortization;
(bb) Each of the Mortgaged Properties consists of a single parcel of real
property with a single-family residence erected thereon, or a two- to
four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a condominium project
or an individual unit in a planned unit development or a single parcel of real
property with a cooperative housing development erected thereon;
(cc) The Mortgage Loans were originated with full, alternative or reduced
documentation;
(dd) The Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable for
recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Property is located;
(ee) Each Mortgage Loan was originated by, (i) a savings and loan
association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or
similar institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or State
authority, (ii) a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development pursuant to Section 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act or (iii)
a mortgage banker or broker licensed or authorized to do business in the
jurisdiction in which the related Property is located, applying the same
standards and procedures used by the applicable seller in originating Mortgage
Loans directly;
(ff) Except for 18 Mortgage Loans with an aggregate outstanding principal
balance as of the Cut-off Date of $5,847,863, no Mortgage Loan is secured by a
leasehold estate, and with respect to each Mortgage Loan secured by a leasehold
estate, the term of the leasehold exceeds the term of the related mortgage by
not less than 24 months;
(gg) The Coupon Rate on each ARM, and each 5/1 ARM Mortgage Loan which has
reached its Change Date, has been adjusted in accordance with the terms of the
related Mortgage Note;
(hh) No Mortgage Loan has been selected in a manner adverse to the
interests of the Noteholders or the Note Insurer;
(ii) Any escrow agreements with respect to each Mortgage Loan comply with
applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note;
(jj) With respect to each Cooperative Loan (i) there is no provision in the
related proprietary lease which requires the Mortgagor to offer for sale the
shares owned by such Mortgagor first to the Cooperative for a price less than
the outstanding amount of the Cooperative Loan, and (ii) there is no prohibition
in the related proprietary lease against pledging such shares or assigning the
proprietary lease that has been violated in connection with the origination of
the Cooperative Loan;
(kk) With respect to each Cooperative Loan, as of the closing of such
Cooperative Loan, the related Subservicer, obtained evidence that, if the
Cooperative Building is in a federally designated flood area, a flood insurance
policy has been obtained in an amount equal to at least that required by
applicable law, which insurance the Cooperative is obligated to maintain at the
Cooperative's cost and expense;
(ll) With respect to each Cooperative Loan, as of the Mortgage Loan Closing
Date, such Cooperative Loan is secured by shares held by a "tenant-stockholder"
of a corporation that qualifies as a "cooperative housing corporation" as such
terms are defined in section 216 (b) (1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, and to the best of the Seller's knowledge, no Cooperative is subject
to proceedings which would, if adversely determined, result in such Cooperative
losing its status as a "cooperative housing corporation" under Section 216 (b)
(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and
(mm) With respect to each Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage creates a
first-priority security interest in the stock in the Cooperative and the related
proprietary lease of the related Cooperative Unit which were pledged to secure
such Cooperative Loan, and the Cooperative owns the Cooperative Building as an
estate in fee simple in real property or pursuant to a leasehold acceptable to
