any, by which (a) the sum of (1) the Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for
such Class for the immediately preceding Distribution Date and (2) the
outstanding Unpaid Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for such Class for such
preceding Distribution Date exceeds (b) the aggregate amount distributed on such
Class in respect of interest pursuant to clause (a) of this definition on such
preceding Distribution Date, plus interest on the amount of interest due but not
paid on the Certificates of such Class on such preceding Distribution Date, to
the extent permitted by law, at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class for the
related Accrual Period.
"Value": With respect to any Mortgaged Property, the lesser of
(i) the lesser of (a) the value thereof as determined by an appraisal made for
the originator of the Mortgage Loan at the time of origination of the Mortgage
Loan by an appraiser who met the minimum requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx
Mac, and (b) the value thereof as determined by a review appraisal conducted by
the Originator in the event any such review appraisal determines an appraised
value ten percent or more lower than the value thereof as determined by the
appraisal referred to in clause (i)(a) above and (ii) the purchase price paid
for the related Mortgaged Property by the Mortgagor with the proceeds of the
Mortgage Loan, provided, however, in the case of a Refinanced Mortgage Loan,
such value of the Mortgaged Property is based solely upon the lesser of (1) the
value determined by an appraisal made for the Originator of such Refinanced
Mortgage Loan at the time of origination of such Refinanced Mortgage Loan by an
appraiser who met the minimum requirements of Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac and (2)
the value thereof as determined by a review appraisal conducted by the

Principal Balances of their respective Certificates), the Class P Certificates
shall have 1% of the Voting Rights and the Residual Certificates shall have 1%
of the Voting Rights. The Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates
(other than the Class P Certificates and the Residual Certificates) shall be
allocated among all Holders of each such Class in proportion to the outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance of such Certificates, and the Voting Rights
allocated to the Class P Certificates and the Residual Certificates shall be
allocated among all Holders of each such Class in proportion to such Holders'
respective Percentage Interest; provided, however that when none of the Regular
Certificates are outstanding, 100% of the Voting Rights shall be allocated among
Holders of the Residual Certificates in accordance with such Holders' respective
Percentage Interests in the Certificates of such Class.

Unless otherwise specified herein, for the purpose of any
definition or calculation, whenever amounts are required to be netted,
subtracted or added or any distributions are taken into account such definition

Distributable Amount for the Floating Rate Certificates and the Class C
Certificates for any Distribution Date, (1) the aggregate amount of any Net
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred
in respect of the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated
first, among the Class C Certificates on a PRO RATA basis based on, and to the
extent of, one month's interest at the then applicable Pass-Through Rate on the
Notional Amount of each such Certificate and, thereafter, among the Floating
Rate Certificates on a PRO RATA basis based on, and to the extent of, one
month's interest at the then applicable respective Pass-Through Rate on the

CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
SECTION 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to
the Trustee without recourse for the benefit of the Certificateholders all the
right, title and interest of the Depositor, including any security interest
therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in and to (i) each Mortgage Loan
identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, including the related Cut-off Date
Principal Balance, all interest accruing thereon on and after the Cut-off Date
and all collections in respect of interest and principal due after the Cut-off
Date; (ii) property which secured each such Mortgage Loan and which has been
acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (iii) its interest in
any insurance policies in respect of the Mortgage Loans; (iv) the rights of the
Depositor under the Master Agreements (as assigned to the Depositor pursuant to
the terms of the Assignment Agreements), (v) the right to receive any amounts
payable under the Cap Contract, (vi) all other assets included or to be included
in the Trust Fund and (vii) all proceeds of any of the foregoing. Such
assignment includes all interest and principal due and collected by the
Depositor or the Servicer after the Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute, deliver
and perform its obligations under the Cap Contract on the Closing Date and
thereafter on behalf of the Holders of the Floating Rate Certificates. The
Depositor, the Servicer and the Holders of the Floating Rate Certificates by
their acceptance of such Certificates acknowledge and agree that the Trustee
shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Cap Contract and
shall do so solely in its capacity as Trustee of the Trust Fund and not in its
individual capacity.
In connection with such transfer and assignment, the
Depositor, does hereby deliver to, and deposit with the Trustee, the following
documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and
assigned, and in accordance with Section 2.08, deliver or caused to be delivered
to the Trustee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the following documents or
instruments (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, a "Mortgage File"):
(i) the original Mortgage Note including any riders
thereto, endorsed either (A) in blank, in which case the Trustee shall
cause the endorsement to be completed or (B) in the following form:
"Pay to the order of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee,
without recourse" or with respect to any lost Mortgage Note, an
original Lost Note Affidavit stating that the original mortgage note
was lost, misplaced or destroyed, together with a copy of the related
mortgage note; provided, however, that such substitutions of Lost Note
Affidavits for original Mortgage Notes may occur only with respect to
Mortgage Loans, the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of which
is less than or equal to 1.00% of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off
Date;
(ii) the original Mortgage (noting the presence of the MIN
of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is
a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan), with evidence of
recording thereon, and the original recorded power of attorney, if the
Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of
recording thereon or, if such Mortgage or power of attorney has been
submitted for recording but has not been returned from the applicable
public recording office, has been lost or is not otherwise available, a
copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, as the case may be,
certified to be a true and complete copy of the original submitted for
recording;
(iii) unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS(R)
System, an original Assignment, in form and substance acceptable for
recording. The Mortgage shall be assigned either (A) in blank or (B) to
"Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, without recourse";
(iv) an original of any intervening assignment of Mortgage
showing a complete chain of assignments (or to MERS if the Mortgage
Loan is registered on the MERS(R) System and noting the presence of
MIN);
(v) the original or a certified copy of lender's title
insurance policy; and
(vi) the original or copies of each assumption,
modification, written assurance or substitution agreement, if any.
The Depositor herewith also delivers to the Trustee an
executed copy of each Assignment Agreement and each Master Agreement.
If any of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(ii), (iii)
or (iv) above has as of the Closing Date (or Transfer Date, with respect to
Mortgage Loans) been submitted for recording but either (x) has not been
returned from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been lost or
such public recording office has retained the original of such document, the
obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be
satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee no later than the Closing Date (or
Transfer Date, with respect to Mortgage Loans), of a copy of each such document
certified by the Originator in the case of (x) above or the applicable public
recording office in the case of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the
original that was submitted for recording and (2) if such copy is certified by
the Originator, delivery to the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof of either
the original or a copy of such document certified by the applicable public
recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original. If the original
lender's title insurance policy, or a certified copy thereof, was not delivered
pursuant to Section 2.01(v) above, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee, the original or a copy of a written commitment or
interim binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or
escrow company, with the original or a certified copy thereof to be delivered to
the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof. The Servicer or the Depositor shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof
any other documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect
to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents
evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.
Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially
defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File, the
Trustee shall notify the Servicer and the Servicer shall enforce the obligations
of the Originator under the Master Agreement to cure such defect or deliver such
missing document to the Trustee within 90 days. If the Originator does not cure
such defect or deliver such missing document within such time period, the
Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to enforce the
obligations of the Originator to either repurchase or substitute for such
Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 2.03; provided, however, that the
Servicer shall not be under any obligation to take any action pursuant to this
paragraph unless directed by the Depositor and provided, further, the Depositor
hereby agrees to assist the Servicer in enforcing any obligations of the
Originator to repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan which has breached a
representation or warranty under the related Assignment Agreement. In connection
with the foregoing, it is understood that the Trustee shall have no duty to
discover any such defects except in the course of performing its review of the
Mortgage Files to the extent set forth herein.
Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is
identified on the Mortgage, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the
Originator under the Master Agreement to cause the Assignments which were
delivered in blank to be completed and to record all Assignments referred to in
Section 2.01(iii) hereof and, to the extent necessary, in Section 2.01(iv)
hereof. The Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Originator under the
Master Agreement to deliver such assignments for recording within 180 days of
the Closing Date. In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned
unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Trustee shall enforce the
obligations of the Originator under the related Master Agreement to promptly
have a substitute Assignment prepared or have such defect cured, as the case may
be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for administrative convenience
and facilitation of servicing and to reduce closing costs, the Assignments of
Mortgage shall not be required to be submitted for recording (except with
respect to any Mortgage Loan located in Maryland) unless the Trustee and the
Depositor receive notice that such failure to record would result in a
withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating on any Class of
Certificates; provided, however, each Assignment, except with respect to any
Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage, shall be submitted
for recording in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund or
Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by the Holders
of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the
occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, (iii) the occurrence of a
bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the
occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof, (v) upon
receipt of notice from the Servicer, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency
or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage and (vi)
upon receipt of notice from the Servicer, any Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or
more Delinquent. In the event of (i) through (vi) set forth in the immediately
preceding sentence, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller to
deliver such Assignments for recording as provided above, promptly and in any
event within 30 days following receipt of notice by the Seller. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Seller fails to pay the cost of recording the Assignments,
such expense will be paid by the Trustee and the Trustee shall be reimbursed for
such expenses by the Trust.
In the event that any Mortgage Note is endorsed in blank as of
the Closing Date, promptly following the Closing Date, the Trustee shall cause
(at the Seller's expense) such endorsements to be completed as follows: "Pay to
the order of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, without
recourse."
The Servicer shall forward to the Trustee original documents
evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any
Mortgage Loan entered into in accordance with this Agreement within two weeks of
their execution; provided, however, that the Servicer shall provide the Trustee
with a certified true copy of any such document submitted for recordation within
two weeks of its execution, and shall provide the original of any document
submitted for recordation or a copy of such document certified by the
appropriate public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the
original within 365 days of its submission for recordation. In the event that
the Servicer cannot provide a copy of such document certified by the public
recording office within such 365 day period, the Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee, within such 365 day period, an Officers' Certificate of the Servicer
which shall (A) identify the recorded document, (B) state that the recorded
document has not been delivered to the Trustee due solely to a delay caused by
the public recording office, (C) state the amount of time generally required by
the applicable recording office to record and return a document submitted for
recordation, if known and (D) specify the date the applicable recorded document
is expected to be delivered to the Trustee, and, upon receipt of a copy of such
document certified by the public recording office, the Servicer shall
immediately deliver such document to the Trustee. In the event the appropriate
public recording office will not certify as to the accuracy of such document,
the Servicer shall deliver a copy of such document certified by an officer of
the Servicer to be a true and complete copy of the original to the Trustee.
The parties hereto understand and agree that it is not
intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is a high-cost
home loan as defined by the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or
any other applicable predatory or abusive lending laws.
SECTION 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee.
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the
review described below and any exceptions noted on the exception report
described in the next paragraph below, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the
documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the
definition of "Trust Fund" and declares that it holds and will hold such
documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File,
and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in
the definition of "Trust Fund" in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders.
The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver to the Depositor and
the Servicer on or prior to the Closing Date an acknowledgment of receipt of the
related original Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan (with any exceptions
noted), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F-3 hereto.
The Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
to review, or that it has reviewed pursuant to Section 2.01 each Mortgage File
on or prior to the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan (or, with
respect to any document delivered after the Startup Day, within 45 days of
receipt and with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, within 45
days after the assignment thereof). The Trustee further agrees for the benefit
of the Certificateholders, to certify to the Depositor and the Servicer in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, within 45 days after the
Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, or on or prior to the Transfer
Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to any document
delivered after the Startup Day, within 45 days of receipt and with respect to
any Qualified Substitute Mortgage, within 45 days after the assignment thereof)
that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the respective Mortgage Loan Schedule
(other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such
certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to
Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have
been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or torn and appear on
their face to relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its examination
and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule that corresponds to items (1) and (3) of the Mortgage Loan Schedule
accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein
acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee is under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, legally
enforceable, valid or binding or appropriate for the represented purpose or that
they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport
to be on their face.
Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement the
Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a final certification in
the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making
or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the
Trustee finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File
to be missing or not to conform with respect to any characteristics which are
within the scope of the Trustee's review as provided herein, at the conclusion
of its review, the Trustee shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor and the
Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor or the Servicer (or
upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such breach) of a breach
of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originator in the
Master Agreement or the Seller in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any
Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the
interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties to
this Agreement.
The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and
transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the
related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto
free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee
in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be
part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any
insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be,
or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor
shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first
priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and
interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the
related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement
under applicable law.
SECTION 2.03 Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans
by the Originator or the Seller.
(a) Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of any
materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage
File or of the breach by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, of any
representation, warranty or covenant under the Master Agreement or the
Assignment Agreement, as applicable, in respect of any Mortgage Loan which
materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest
therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall promptly notify the
Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and the Servicer shall
request that the Originator deliver such missing document or that the Originator
cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Originator was
notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Originator does
not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material
respects during such period, the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to attempt to enforce the Originator's obligation under the Master
Agreement or the Seller's obligation under the Assignment Agreement and notify
the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, of its obligation to repurchase
such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to the
expiration of such 90 day period (subject to Section 2.03(e)); provided,
however, that the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to take any action
pursuant to this paragraph unless directed by the Depositor and provided,
further, the Depositor hereby agrees to assist the Servicer in enforcing any
obligations of the Originator to repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan
which has breached a representation or warranty under the related Assignment
Agreement. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be
remitted to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, and the Trustee,
upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall
release to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, the Mortgage File and
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each
case without recourse, as the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall
furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Originator or Seller, as
applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall
have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File (it being
understood that the Trustee shall not have any responsibility for determining
the sufficiency of such assignment for its intended purpose). In lieu of
repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, the Originator or the
Seller, as applicable, may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust
Fund (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one
or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d); provided, however, the Seller may not
substitute for any Mortgage Loan which breaches a representation or warranty
regarding abusive or predatory lending laws. In furtherance of the foregoing, if
the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, is not a member of MERS and
repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS(R) System, the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, at its own expense and without any
right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of
the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to be
removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules
and regulations. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, to cure or to repurchase (or to
substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material
defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has
occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, respecting such omission, defect or
breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.
(b) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the
Depositor or receipt of notice by the Depositor of the breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Depositor set forth in Section 2.06,
which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders
in any Mortgage Loan, the Depositor shall cure such breach in all material
respects.
(c) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the
Servicer or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05
which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders
in any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material
respects.
(d) Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be
effected prior to the last Business Day that is within two years after the
Closing Date. As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Originator or the
Seller, as applicable, substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, delivering to the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the Assignment to the
Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary
endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an
Officers' Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment
(as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The Trustee
shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans
and, within 45 days thereafter, shall review such documents as specified in
Section 2.02 and the Trustee shall deliver, with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
Within one year of the date of substitution, the Trustee shall deliver to the
Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto with
respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of the Trust
Fund and will be retained by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable. For
the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the
collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan in the Due
Period preceding the month of substitution and the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently
received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Depositor shall give or
cause to be given written notice to the Trustee, who shall forward such notice
to the Certificateholders, that such substitution has taken place, shall amend
the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan
from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution by the Originator
or the Seller, as applicable, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans
shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects
to the terms of this Agreement and the related Assignment Agreement, including
all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in such
Assignment Agreement as of the date of substitution.
For any month in which the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one
or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Servicer will determine the amount (the
"Substitution Adjustment"), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all
such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the Stated Principal Balance thereof as of the date
of substitution, together with one month's interest on such Stated Principal
Balance at the applicable Mortgage Rate. On the date of such substitution, the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, will deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the
Substitution Adjustment, if any, and the Trustee upon receipt of the related
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by the Servicer of
such deposit, shall release to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, the
Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Originator or the
Seller, as applicable, shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest
therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
In addition, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be
imposed on the Trust Fund, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed
on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F(a)(I) of the Code or on
"contributions after the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(I) of the Code or
(b) any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is
outstanding. If such Opinion of Counsel can not be delivered, then such
substitution may only be effected at such time as the required Opinion of
Counsel can be given.
(e) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer or the
Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact
shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties
hereto. In connection therewith, the Originator or the Depositor, as the case
may be, shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section
2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the
affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of
such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or
substitution shall be made (i) by the Originator if the affected Mortgage Loan's
status as a non-qualified mortgage is or results from a breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant made by the Originator under the Assignment
Agreement or (ii) the Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan's status as a
non-qualified mortgage is a breach of any representation or warranty of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.06, or if its status as a non-qualified
mortgage is a breach of no representation or warranty. Any such repurchase or
substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a) or
2.03(d), if made by the Originator, or Section 2.03(b), if made by the
Depositor. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Depositor or the Originator, as the
case may be, the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same
manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan
repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.
(f) Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of a
breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the
Seller under the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which
materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest
therein of the Certificateholders, and if either (i) such Mortgage Loan is not
in breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Originator or (ii)
the Originator has failed to remedy such representation, warranty or covenant
with respect to such Mortgage Loan, then the Trustee shall promptly notify the
Servicer of such breach and the Servicer shall request that the Seller remedy
such breach by the Seller, to the extent provided in the Assignment Agreement,
in the manner and within the time periods set forth in the Assignment Agreement.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION 3.01 Servicer to Act as Servicer.
The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans
on behalf of the Trust and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (as determined by the Servicer in its reasonable judgment) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, to the
extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner in which it services and
administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio, giving due
consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of mortgage lenders
and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but without regard to:
(i) any relationship that the Servicer, any Sub-Servicer
or any Affiliate of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with the
related Mortgagor;
(ii) the ownership or non-ownership of any Certificate by
the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer;
(iii) the Servicer's obligation to make Advances or
Servicing Advances; or
(iv) the Servicer's or any Sub-Servicer's right to receive
compensation for its services hereunder or with respect to any
particular transaction (the "Servicing Standard").
To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer (a)
shall seek the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the
Mortgage Notes and (b) shall waive (or permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a
Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver is
standard and customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans and (ii) such waiver
relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking
into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan,
(iii) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be in violation of
applicable laws or (iv) the Servicer has not received information and
documentation sufficient to confirm the existence or amount of such Prepayment
Charge. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standard
described in clauses (iii) or (iv) above, then the Servicer shall make
commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to enforce the obligations of the
Originator under the Master Agreement to pay the amount of such waived
Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to take
any action pursuant to this paragraph unless directed by the Depositor and
provided, further, the Depositor hereby agrees to assist the Servicer in
enforcing any obligations of the Originator to repurchase or substitute for a
Mortgage Loan which has breached a representation or warranty under the
Assignment Agreement. If the Servicer makes a good faith determination as
evidenced by an officer's certificate delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee,
that the Servicer's efforts are not reasonably expected to be successful in
enforcing such rights, it shall notify the Trustee of such failure and the
Trustee, with the cooperation of the Servicer, shall enforce the obligation of
the Originator under the Master Agreement to pay to the Servicer the amount of
such waived Prepayment Charge. If such Originator fails to pay the amount of
such waived Prepayment Charge in accordance with its obligations under the
Master Agreement, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor shall consult on
further actions to be taken against such Originator.
Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and
the terms of this Agreement and of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have
full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in
Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with
such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer, in the name of
the Trust Fund, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the
Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the
Servicing Standard, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders
and the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of
partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute
foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert
the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such
properties, on behalf of the Trustee and Certificateholders, to market, sell and
transfer title of REO Properties held in the name of the Trust Fund to third
party purchasers upon terms and conditions the Servicer deems reasonable under
the Servicing Standard, to bring or respond to civil actions or complaints (in
its own name or that of the Trust Fund or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
Fund) related to any Mortgage Loan, Mortgaged Property or REO Property held by
the Trust Fund and o execute any other document necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties
hereunder consistent with the Servicing Standard.
The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the
Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby. The Servicer
shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules
and requirements of each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy.
Subject to Section 3.17, within five (5) days of the Closing Date, the Trustee
shall execute and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer any special or
limited powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and
administrative duties hereunder; PROVIDED, such limited powers of attorney or
other documents shall be prepared by the Servicer and submitted to the Trustee
for execution. The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions by the Servicer
or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.
The Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the
Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or
in the name of the Sub-Servicer, when the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the
case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any
Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration
of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments
of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment
or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the
Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any reasonable expenses incurred in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence or as a result
of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection
with the MERS(R) System, shall be reimbursable to the Servicer by withdrawal
from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11.
Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, in accordance with the
standards of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer, on escrowed accounts, shall
advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting
the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances
shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related
collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as
provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by the Servicer or by Sub-Servicers
in effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall
not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be
added to the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan
(except as provided in Section 4.04) and the Servicer shall not (i) permit any
modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage
Rate, reduce or increase the Stated Principal Balance (except for reductions
resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date
on such Mortgage Loan (unless, in any such case, as provided in Section 3.07,
the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default
is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would
both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section
1001 of the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause
any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the
imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions after the
startup date" under the REMIC Provisions.
The Servicer shall also undertake to defend, with respect to a
claim against the Trustee or the Trust, any claims against the Trust, the
Trustee or itself by a Mortgagor which relate to or affect the servicing of any
Mortgage Loan. This shall not be construed as an assumption of liability in such
matters. The Trustee shall notify the Servicer of any such claim as soon as
practicable after receiving notice of such claim. The Servicer shall not be
liable for any delay in responding to any claim of which it has not received
timely notice. The Trustee shall cooperate with the Servicer in all aspects of
the defense of such claims, including the timely delivery of all relevant
litigation files and other related information. In the event the Servicer acts
on behalf of the Trustee, the Trust or itself in any such litigation, the Trust
shall pay all costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees, court costs,
settlements and judgments) associated with the defense and management of such
claim; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be indemnified for any
such cost or expense relating to claims against the Servicer and incurred by
reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of
its duties hereunder.
SECTION 3.02 Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers.
(a) The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements
with Sub-Servicers, which may be Affiliates of the Servicer, for the servicing
and administration of the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, such sub-servicing
arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement must provide
for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the
servicing arrangement contemplated hereunder. The Trustee is hereby authorized
to acknowledge, at the request of the Servicer, any Sub-Servicing Agreement. No
such acknowledgment shall be deemed to imply that the Trustee has consented to
any such Sub-Servicing Agreement, has passed upon whether such Sub-Servicing
Agreement meets the requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set
forth in this Agreement or has passed upon whether such Sub-Servicing Agreement
is otherwise permitted under this Agreement. The Servicer may, in connection
with its duties as Servicer hereunder, enter into transactions with any of its
Affiliates relating to the Mortgage Loans; provided, that (i) such transaction
is in the ordinary course of business of the Servicer, and (ii) the terms of
such transaction are no less favorable to the Servicer than it would obtain in a
comparable arm's-length transaction with a person that is not an Affiliate of
the Servicer.
Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business
in the state or states where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service
are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the
Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing
Agreement and (ii) a Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae approved mortgage servicer. Each
Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming
to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 and provide for servicing of the
Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer will
examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms
thereof. The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with
any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any variation in any Sub-Servicing
Agreements from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance
or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to
the Sub-Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the
Sub-Servicers to the Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with
this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or
modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer's execution and delivery of
such instruments.
(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the
Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall
enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing
Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in
respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate
remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such
time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it
the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of
such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i)
from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any,
that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage
Loans, or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys' fees
against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.
SECTION 3.03 Successor Sub-Servicers.
The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing
Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Sub-Servicer pursuant to any
Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such
Sub-Servicing Agreement. In the event of termination of any Sub-Servicer, all
servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer shall be assumed simultaneously by
the Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such Sub-Servicer or the
Servicer, and the Servicer either shall service directly the related Mortgage
Loans or shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor
Sub-Servicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the provision that
such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Servicer or the Trustee (if
the Trustee is acting as Servicer) without fee, in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer (or the Trustee, if such party is
then acting as Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer
(including termination due to a Servicer Event of Termination).
SECTION 3.04 Liability of the Servicer.
Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or the provisions
of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer
and a Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or
otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the
Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing
Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer
and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the
Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer
shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for
indemnification of the Servicer by such Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
SECTION 3.05 No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers
and the Trustee or Certificateholders.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer
in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the
Servicer alone, and the Trustee or Certificateholders shall not be deemed
parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or
liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section
3.06. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any
Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer's compensation pursuant to
this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.
SECTION 3.06 Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing
Agreements by Trustee.
In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination), the Trustee, in addition to its duties under Section 7.02, shall
thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each
Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the
Trustee elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its
terms as provided in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Trustee (or the
successor servicer appointed pursuant to Section 7.02) shall be deemed, subject
to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the departing Servicer's interest
therein and to have replaced the departing Servicer as a party to each
Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement
had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the departing Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii)
neither the Trustee nor any successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed
any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose before it ceased to be
the Servicer.
The Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the
Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to
each Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an
accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise
use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the
Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming party. All Servicing Transfer Costs
shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Servicer is the Trustee or
it defaults in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the
successor Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the
assets of the Trust).
SECTION 3.07 Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.
The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts, in accordance with
the Servicing Standard, to collect all payments called for under the terms and
provisions of the Mortgage Loans and the provisions of any applicable insurance
policies provided to the Servicer. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer
may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any
penalty interest or any provisions of any Mortgage Loan requiring the related
Mortgagor to submit to mandatory arbitration with respect to disputes arising
thereunder, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a
Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that
any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization
schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except
as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii)
above, the Servicer shall make timely Advances on such Mortgage Loan during such
extension pursuant to Section 4.04 and in accordance with the amortization
schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan
is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably
foreseeable, the Servicer, consistent with the standards set forth in Section
3.01, may also waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including
modifications that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of
principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan),
accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated
Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan, or consent to the
postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant
indulgence to any Mortgagor (any and all such waivers, modifications, variances,
forgiveness of principal or interest, postponements, or indulgences collectively
referred to herein as "forbearance"). The Servicer's analysis supporting any
forbearance and the conclusion that any forbearance meets the standards of
Section 3.01 shall be reflected in writing in the Mortgage File.
SECTION 3.08 Sub-Servicing Accounts.
In those cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage
Loan pursuant to a Sub- Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer will be required
to establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the "Sub-Servicing
Account"). The Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall
comply with all requirements of this Agreement relating to the Collection
Account. The Sub-Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account in which it
customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection
with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event
more than one Business Day after the Sub-Servicer's receipt thereof, all
proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing
compensation to the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall
thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more
than two Business Days after the receipt of such amounts. The Sub-Servicer shall
thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such
proceeds to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than
two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the Sub-Servicing
Account. For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have
received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Sub-Servicer receives such
payments.
SECTION 3.09 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar
Items; Escrow Accounts.
To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note, the
Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and
maintained, one or more accounts (the "Escrow Accounts"), into which all Escrow
Payments shall be deposited and retained. Escrow Accounts shall be Eligible
Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account in which it
customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection
with its mortgage loan servicing activities, all Escrow Payments collected on
account of the Mortgage Loans and shall deposit in the Escrow Accounts, in no
event more than two Business Days after the receipt of such Escrow Payments, all
Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of
effecting the payment of any such items as required under the terms of this
Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from an Escrow Account may be made only to (i)
effect payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable
items in a manner and at a time that assures that the lien priority of the
Mortgage is not jeopardized (or, with respect to the payment of taxes, in a
manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax
sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien); (ii) reimburse the Servicer
(or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing
Agreement) out of related collections for any Servicing Advances made pursuant
to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with
respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be
determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described
below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account; or (v) clear and
terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of the Servicer's obligations
and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in
accordance with Article X. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in a Escrow
Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time
withdraw such amount from such Escrow Account, any provision herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer will be responsible for the
administration of the Escrow Accounts and will be obligated to make Servicing
Advances to such accounts when and as necessary to avoid the lapse of insurance
coverage on the Mortgaged Property, or which the Servicer knows, or in the
exercise of the required standard of care of the Servicer hereunder should know,
is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or
the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien. If any such payment has not been made
and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage
being imposed, the Servicer will, within 10 Business Days of receipt of such
notice, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien
on the Mortgaged Property. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in the Escrow
Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned
on funds in the Escrow Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its
or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. The Servicer may pay to
itself any excess interest on funds in the Escrow Accounts, to the extent such
action is in conformity with the Servicing Standard, is permitted by law and
such amounts are not required to be paid to Mortgagors or used for any of the
other purposes set forth above.
SECTION 3.10 Collection Account and Distribution Account.
(a) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall
establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more
accounts (such account or accounts, the "Collection Account"), held in trust for
the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust
Fund, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection
Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer's receipt
thereof, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder, the following
payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the Cut-off Date
(other than in respect of principal or interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or
before the Cut-off Date) or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received
by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent
thereto:
(i) all payments on account of principal, including
Principal Prepayments (but not Prepayment Charges), on the Mortgage
Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest (net of the
Servicing Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds, Net Liquidation Proceeds,
Subsequent Recoveries and condemnation proceeds (other than proceeds
collected in respect of any particular REO Property and amounts paid in
connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties
pursuant to Section 10.01);
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to
Section 3.12 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted
Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer
pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any
blanket policy deductibles;
(vi) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or
purchased in accordance with Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or Section
10.01;
(vii) all amounts required to be deposited in connection
with Substitution Adjustments pursuant to Section 2.03; and
(viii) all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer and
any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts in connection with the
Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection
Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of Servicing
Fees, late payment charges, assumption fees, insufficient funds charges and
ancillary income (other than Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the
Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained by the Servicer as
additional compensation. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the
Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at
any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall
establish and maintain one or more segregated, non-interest bearing trust
accounts (such account or accounts, the "Distribution Account"), held in trust
for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the
Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately available
funds for deposit in the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York
time on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Funds
(calculated without regard to the references in the definition thereof to
amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the related
Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account, the amount of all
Prepayment Charges collected during the applicable Prepayment Period by the
Servicer and Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts in connection with the
Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the
Collection Account, the amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advancing Person
pursuant to Section 3.29 (unless such amounts are to be remitted in another
manner as specified in the documentation establishing the related Advance
Facility).
If, by 3:00 p.m. New York time, on the Servicer Remittance Date, the
Servicer fails to remit to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution Account
any amounts required to be so remitted by the Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement, the Servicer shall pay to the Trustee, for its own account, interest
on such amounts at the prime rate for such date (as set forth in the WALL STREET
JOURNAL) for the period commencing on the Servicer Remittance Date through the
Business Day on which such failure is remedied.
(c) Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution
Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Servicer shall give written notice to
the Trustee of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when
established and prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to
the Servicer and the Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when
established and prior to any change thereof.
(d) Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may
be delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee for deposit in an account (which may
be the Distribution Account and must satisfy the standards for the Distribution
Account as set forth in the definition thereof) and for all purposes of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a part of the Collection Account; provided,
however, that the Trustee shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds
held pursuant to this subsection (d). In the event the Servicer shall deliver to
the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to
be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Trustee withdraw such
amount from the Distribution Account and remit to it any such amount, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In addition, the Servicer,
with respect to items (i) through (iv) below, shall deliver to the Trustee from
time to time for deposit, and the Trustee, with respect to items (i) through
(iv) below, shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account:
(i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.04;
(ii) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to
Section 3.23(d) or (f) in connection with any REO Property;
(iii) any amounts to be paid by the Servicer in connection
with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to
Section 10.01;
(iv) any Compensating Interest to be deposited pursuant to
Section 3.24 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfall; and
(v) any amounts required to be paid to the Trustee
pursuant to the Agreement, including, but not limited to Section 3.06
and Section 7.02.
SECTION 3.11 Withdrawals from the Collection Account and
Distribution Account.
(a) The Servicer shall, from time to time, make
withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as
described in Section 4.04:
(i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to
Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first
sentence of Section 3.10(d);
(ii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Servicer
for (a) any unreimbursed Advances to the extent of amounts received
which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees),
Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds on Mortgage Loans or REO
Properties with respect to which such Advances were made in accordance
with the provisions of Section 4.04; or (b) without limiting any right
of withdrawal set forth in clause (vi) below, any unreimbursed Advances
that, upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage
Loan, are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late
Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees), Liquidation Proceeds
and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are
insufficient to reimburse the Servicer for such unreimbursed Advances;
(iii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Servicer or
any Sub-Servicer (a) any unpaid Servicing Fees, (b) any unreimbursed
Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the
extent of any Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance
Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan or REO Property,
and (c) without limiting any right of withdrawal set forth in clause
(vi) below, any Servicing Advances made with respect to a Mortgage Loan
that, upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage
Loan are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late
Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with
respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the
Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for Servicing Advances;
(iv) to pay to the Servicer as additional servicing
compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee) on the Servicer
Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds
deposited in the Collection Account;
(v) to pay itself, the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been
purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all
amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or
substitution, as the case may be;
(vi) to reimburse the Servicer for any Advance or
Servicing Advance previously made which the Servicer has determined to
be a Nonrecoverable Advance in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.04;
(vii) to pay, or to reimburse the Servicer for Servicing
Advances in respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any
Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(b);
(viii) to reimburse the Servicer for expenses incurred by or
reimbursable to the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.03;
(ix) to pay itself any Prepayment Interest Excess;
(x) to clear and terminate the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 10.01; and
(xi) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Collection
Account and not required to be deposited therein.
The foregoing requirements for withdrawal from the Collection
Account shall be exclusive. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the
Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at
any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.
The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of
it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) above. The
Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee, on or prior to the
next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any withdrawals from the
Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vi) above; provided that an Officers'
Certificate in the form described under Section 4.04(d) shall suffice for such
written notification to the Trustee in respect hereof.
(b) The Trustee shall, from time to time, make
withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes,
without priority:
(i) to make distributions in accordance with Section
4.01;
(ii) [reserved];
(iii) to pay any amounts in respect of taxes pursuant to
Section 9.01(g);
(iv) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account
pursuant to Section 10.01;
(v) to pay any amounts required to be paid to the Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to funds required
to be paid pursuant to Section 3.06, Section 4.01, Section 7.02 and
Section 8.05;
(vi) to pay to the Trustee, any interest, income or
investment income earned on funds deposited in the Distribution
Account; and
(vii) to pay to an Advancing Person reimbursements for
Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.29.
SECTION 3.12 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account
(a) The Servicer may direct any depository institution
maintaining the Collection Account and any REO Account to invest the funds on
deposit in such accounts and the Trustee may invest the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account or hold such funds uninvested (each such account, for the
purposes of this Section 3.12, an "Investment Account"). All investments
pursuant to this Section 3.12 shall be in one or more Permitted Investments
bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand,
(i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such
funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement,
if a Person other than the Trustee is the obligor thereon or if such investment
is managed or advised by a Person other than the Trustee or an Affiliate of the
Trustee, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required to be
withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee is the
obligor thereon or if such investment is managed or advised by the Trustee or
any Affiliate. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless
payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be
made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such), or in the name of a
nominee of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except
with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account and
any REO Account, and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such
investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such
investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together
with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to
the Trustee or its nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment
Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand,
the Trustee shall:
(x) consistent with any notice required to be given
thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such
Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal
to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the
amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly
upon determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that such
Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in
respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.
(b) All income and gain realized from the investment of
funds deposited in the Collection Account and any REO Account held by or on
behalf of the Servicer shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be
subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11, Section 3.29 or
Section 3.23, as applicable. The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection
Account or any REO Account, as applicable, the amount of any loss of principal
incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such
Account immediately upon realization of such loss.
(c) All income and gain realized from the investment of
funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the
Trustee. The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account the amount of any
loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with
funds in such Account immediately upon realization of such loss. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Trustee may at its discretion, and without liability, hold
the funds in the Distribution Account uninvested.
(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any
Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required
under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and
Section 8.02(a)(v), upon the request of the Holders of Certificates representing
more than 50% of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall
take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance,
including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
(e) The Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to
receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee's
economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator,
shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain
of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in
certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain
Permitted Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that
is reimbursable or payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.11 or 3.12 or
otherwise payable in respect of extraordinary Trust Fund expenses.
SECTION 3.13 [Reserved].
SECTION 3.14 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and
Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.
(a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each
Mortgage Loan hazard insurance with extended coverage on the Mortgaged Property
in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the current Principal
Balance of such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate
for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a
replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as
is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the
related hazard insurance policy. The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained
hazard insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which
is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO
Property. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all
reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard
policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in
accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing loans
held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related
Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a
Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the
Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake
or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in
force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property
or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by
the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and
flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause to be
maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance
shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid Principal Balance of
the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance
available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance
program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is
participating in such program).
In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it
shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in
the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, it being understood and agreed
that such policy may contain a deductible clause on terms substantially
equivalent to those commercially available and maintained by competent
servicers, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not
have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy
complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, and there shall
have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy,
deposit to the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise
payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. In
connection with its activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer
agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Trustee
and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion
in accordance with the terms of such policy.
(b) The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of
this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions
for failure in the performance of the Servicer's obligations under this
Agreement, which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would
meet the requirements of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of
the Mortgage Loans, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such
requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Servicer shall also maintain a
fidelity bond in the form and amount that would meet the requirements of Xxxxxx
Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such
requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Servicer shall be deemed to
have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer has such
errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such
insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to
the Servicer. Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by
its terms not be cancelable without thirty days' prior written notice to the
Trustee. The Servicer shall also cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a policy of
insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet
such requirements.
SECTION 3.15 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any
conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor
(whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the
Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the
Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan
under the "due-on-sale" clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however,
that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole
business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the
Trust Fund and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from
doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law
to enforce such "due-on-sale" clause, or if any of the other conditions set
forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will enter
into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom
such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which
such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted
by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is
also authorized, to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Note, to
enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to
which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is
substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note,
provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person
satisfies the current underwriting criteria of the Servicer for a mortgage loan
similar to the related Mortgage Loan. In connection with any assumption,
modification or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting
standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual
in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage
loans owned solely by it. The Servicer shall not take or enter into any
assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent
practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in
writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance
policy. Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption,
modification or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the
Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such
assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to
the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended
or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The
Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution, modification or
assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the
executed original of such substitution, modification or assumption agreement,
which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all
purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all
other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision
of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or
any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of
a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any
assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any
reason whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term "assumption" is
deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the
Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability
agreement.
SECTION 3.16 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts,
consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise
comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage
Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory
arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to
Section 3.07. Title to any such property shall be taken in the name of the
Trustee or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, subject to
applicable law. The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses
incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and
expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as
contemplated in Section 3.11(a) and Section 3.23. The foregoing is subject to
the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have
suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer shall not be required to
expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall
determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase the proceeds of
liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such
expenses.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.16 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any
Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has
actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the
related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee,
either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of
foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any
other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any
such action, the Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders would be
considered to hold title to, to be a "mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an
"owner" or "operator" of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as
amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also
previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by
a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry
standards, that:
(A) such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with
applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic
interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring the
Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and
(B) there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged
Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous
substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials
for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or
remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or
regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action
could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust
Fund to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.
The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by
this Section 3.16 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer's
right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in
Section 3.11(a)(vii), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of
Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in
respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.
If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in
the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are
necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable
environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment,
clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous
wastes or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then
the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic
interest of the Trust Fund; provided that any amounts disbursed by the Servicer
pursuant to this Section 3.16(b) shall constitute Servicing Advances, subject to
Section 4.04(d). The cost of any such compliance, containment, clean-up or
remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer's right
to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section
3.11(a)(vii), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of
Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in
respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.
(c) The Servicer may, at its option, purchase a Mortgage
Loan which has become 90 or more days delinquent or for which the Servicer has
accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Prior to purchase pursuant to this
Section 3.16(c), the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Advances
pursuant to Section 4.04. The Servicer shall not use any procedure in selecting
Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which is materially adverse to the interests of
the Certificateholders. The Servicer shall purchase such delinquent Mortgage
Loan at a price equal to the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. Any such
purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16(c) shall be
accomplished by deposit in the Collection Account of the amount of the Purchase
Price. Upon the satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 3.17(a),
the Trustee shall immediately deliver the Mortgage File and any related
documentation to the Servicer and will execute such documents provided to it as
are necessary to convey the Mortgage Loan to the Servicer.
(d) Proceeds received in connection with any Final
Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial
collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or condemnation proceeds,
in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of
priority: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer or
any Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances pursuant to
Section 3.11(a)(iii) and Advances pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii); third, to
accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final
Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on
which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final
Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage
Loan. The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be
reimbursed to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii).
SECTION 3.17 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the
receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed
in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee in written (with two executed copies) or electronic format, a Request
for Release in the form of Exhibit E hereto (which certification shall include a
statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited)
signed by a Servicing Officer (or in a mutually agreeable electronic format that
will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer)
and shall request delivery to it or its designee of the Mortgage File. Upon
receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee, within three Business
Days, release the Mortgage File to the Servicer or its designee (which, shall be
sent by overnight mail at the Servicer's expense) and the Servicer is authorized
to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS(R) System of any such
Mortgage Loan, if applicable. Except as otherwise provided herein, no expenses
incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of
reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution
Account.
(b) From time to time and as appropriate for the
servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose,
collection under any insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the
Trustee shall, upon any request made by or on behalf of the Servicer and
delivery to the Trustee two executed copies of a written Request for Release in
the form of Exhibit E hereto signed by a Servicing Officer (or in a mutually
agreeable electronic format that will, in lieu of a signature on its face,
originate from a Servicing Officer), release the related Mortgage File to the
Servicer or its designee within three Business Days, which, shall be sent by
overnight mail, at the expense of the Servicer or the related Mortgagor, and the
Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Servicer, execute such documents
provided to it by the Servicer as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any
such proceedings. Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return
each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the
Trustee when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the
Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the
Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File
or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or
other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing
legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property
either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered, or caused
to be delivered, to the Trustee an additional Request for Release certifying as
to such liquidation or action or proceedings. Upon the request of the Trustee,
the Servicer shall provide notice to the Trustee of the name and address of the
Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the
purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a Request for Release, in
written (with two executed copies) or electronic format (or in a mutually
agreeable electronic format that will, in lieu of a signature on its face,
originate from a Servicing Officer), from a Servicing Officer stating that such
Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the
Collection Account have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become
an REO Property, such Mortgage Loan shall be released by the Trustee to the
Servicer or its designee within three Business Days.
(c) Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer,
the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as
the case may be, copies of any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or
other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee's sale in respect of a
Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any
Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment,
or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such certification
shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the
Trustee a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required
and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate
or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such
a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee's sale.
SECTION 3.18 Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer
shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan
payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan,
subject to Section 3.24. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover
unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or
condemnation proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii) and out of
amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent
permitted by Section 3.23. Except as provided in Section 3.29, the right to
receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in
connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer's responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicer may pay
from the Servicing Fee any amounts due to a Sub-Servicer pursuant to a
Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into under Section 3.02.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption
fees, late payment charges, insufficient funds charges, ancillary income or
otherwise (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only
to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer. The Servicer
shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the
Collection Account and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO
Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned
on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.12 and Section 3.24. The Servicer
shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its
servicing activities hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by
Section 3.14, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors
or by a Sub-Servicer, and servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer) and shall
not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided
herein.
The Servicer shall be entitled to any Prepayment Interest
Excess, which it may withdraw from the Collection Account pursuant to Section
3.11(a)(ix).
SECTION 3.19 Reports to the Trustee; Collection Account
Statements.
Not later than twenty days after each Distribution Date, the
Servicer shall forward, upon request, to the Trustee and the Depositor the most
current available bank statement for the Collection Account. Copies of such
statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any
Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate,
upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is
delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.
SECTION 3.20 Statement as to Compliance.
The Servicer will deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor not
later than March 15th of each calendar year, commencing in 2006, an Officers'
Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P stating, as to each
signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during
the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been
made under such officers' supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers'
knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its
obligations under this Agreement throughout such calendar 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 any
such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to
any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a
Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such
statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee. In addition to the
foregoing, the Servicer will, to the extent reasonable, give any other servicing
information required by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to
applicable law.
SECTION 3.21 Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report.
Not later than March 15th of each calendar year, commencing in
2006, the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Servicer a report
stating that (i) it has obtained a letter of representation regarding certain
matters from the management of the Servicer which includes an assertion that the
Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential mortgage loan servicing
standards, identified in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, with respect
to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most recently
completed calendar year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by
such firm in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants, such representation is fairly stated in all
material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may
be appropriate. In rendering its report such firm may rely, as to matters
relating to the direct servicing of residential mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers,
upon comparable reports of firms of independent certified public accountants
rendered on the basis of examinations conducted in accordance with the same
standards (rendered within one year of such report) with respect to those
Sub-Servicers. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Servicer shall
furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee and each Rating Agency. Copies of
such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon
request at the Servicer's expense, provided that such statement is delivered by
the Servicer to the Trustee.
SECTION 3.22 Access to Certain Documentation; Filing of
Reports by Trustee.
(a) The Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance
regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder,
access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable
laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only
upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the
Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans will be provided to the Trustee and to any Person identified
to the Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon reasonable
request during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated
by it, at the expense of the Person requesting such access.
(b) (i) The Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably
cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the Trust's satisfying the
reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"). The Trustee shall prepare on behalf of the Trust any Forms
8-K and 10-K customary for similar securities as required by the Exchange Act
and the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder, and the Depositor shall sign (or shall cause another entity
acceptable to the Securities and Exchange Commission to sign) and the Trustee
shall file (via the Securities and Exchange Commission's Electronic Data
Gathering and Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of the Depositor (or such
other entity). The Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a limited power of
attorney to execute any Form 8-K and file each such document on behalf of the
Depositor. Such power of attorney shall continue until the earlier of (i)
receipt by the Trustee from the Depositor of written termination of such power
of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Depositor, and not the Trustee, shall be responsible
for executing each Form 10-K filed on behalf of the Trust.
(ii) Each Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 10
days after each Distribution Date, with a copy of the statement to the
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Subject to
Section 3.22(b)(v), prior to March 30th of each year (or such earlier date as
may be required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission), the Trustee shall file a Form 10-K, in
substance as required by applicable law or applicable Security and Exchange
Commission interpretations. The Trustee shall prepare such Form 10-K and provide
the Depositor with such Form 10-K not later than March 20th of each year,
subject to Section 3.22(b)(v). Following its receipt thereof, the Depositor
shall execute such Form 10-K and provide the original of such Form 10-K to the
Trustee not later than March 25th (or, if the applicable March 25th is not a
Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) of each year; provided, however,
that if the filing of such Form 10-K shall be required to occur on a date
earlier than March 30th of each year as may be required by the Exchange Act and
the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, then the
time periods for preparation and execution of such Form 10-K set forth in this
sentence shall be adjusted accordingly. Such Form 10-K when filed shall include
as exhibits the Servicer's annual statement of compliance described under
Section 3.20 and the accountant's report described under Section 3.21, in each
case to the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee. If they are
not so timely delivered, the Trustee shall file an amended Form 10-K including
such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the
Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any failure to
properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to the
Trustee's inability or failure to obtain any information not resulting from its
own negligence or willful misconduct. The Form 10-K shall also include a
certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N-1 (the "Certification"),
which shall be signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of
securitization.
(iii) In addition, (x) the Trustee shall sign a
certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N-2) for the benefit of
the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates regarding certain
aspects of the Certification (the "Trustee Certification"); provided, however,
that the Trustee shall not undertake an analysis of the accountant's report
attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K, and (y) the Servicer shall sign a
certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N-3) for the benefit of
the Depositor, the Trustee and their officers, directors and Affiliates
regarding certain aspects of the Certification (the "Servicer Certification").
The Servicer Certification shall be delivered to the Depositor and the Trustee
no later than March 15th or if such day is not a Business Day, the preceding
Business Day, each year (subject to Section 3.22(b)(v) hereof).
In addition, (A) the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any
actual losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary
legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out
of third party claims based upon a breach of the Trustee's obligations under
this Section 3.22(b) or any material misstatement or omission contained in the
Trustee Certification, and (B) the Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Depositor, the Trustee and their respective officers, directors and
Affiliates from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments
and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain arising out of third
party claims based upon a breach of the Servicer's obligations under this
Section 3.22(b)(iii), any material misstatement or omission contained in the
Servicer's Certification or any information correctly derived by the Trustee and
included in a Form 8-K or Form 10-K from information provided to the Trustee by
the Servicer under this Agreement. If the indemnification provided for herein is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, then (i) the Trustee
agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor
as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor
on the one hand and the Trustee on the other and (ii) the Servicer agrees that
it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor as a result
of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor on
the one hand and the Servicer on the other.
(iv) Upon any filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor a copy of any
executed report, statement or information.
(v) Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the
Trustee is able to do so under applicable law, the Trustee shall file a Form 15
Suspension Notification with respect to the Trust.
(vi) To the extent that, following the Closing Date, the
Depositor certifies that reports and certifications differing from those
required under this Section 3.22(b) comply with the reporting requirements under
the Exchange Act, the Trustee and the Servicer hereby agree that they will
reasonably cooperate to amend the provisions of this Section 3.22(b) in order to
comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment of this
Section 3.22(b); provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be responsible
for executing any Form 10-K or the Certification. Any such amendment may result
in the reduction of the reports filed by the Depositor under the Exchange Act.
(vii) In each case, access to any documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans may be conditioned upon the requesting party's acknowledgment
in writing of a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to the
Servicer regarding any information that is required to remain confidential under
the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act of 1999. Nothing in this Section 3.21 shall limit the
obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure
of information regarding the borrowers and the failure of the Servicer to
provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall
not constitute a breach of this Section. Any such information not otherwise
available to the public will be given only upon the execution of a
confidentiality agreement satisfactory to the Servicer..
SECTION 3.23 Title, Management and Disposition of REO
Property.
(a) The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property
shall, subject to applicable laws, be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its
nominee, in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Servicer, on
behalf of REMIC 1, shall sell any REO Property as soon as practicable and in any
event no later than the end of the third full taxable year after the taxable
year in which such REMIC acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no
later than 60 days before the day on which the three-year grace period would
otherwise expire, an extension of such three-year period, unless the Servicer
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the
Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the REMIC of such
REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in
the imposition on the REMIC of taxes on "prohibited transactions" thereof, as
defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any of the REMICs created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and
operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of
its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any of the REMICs
created hereunder of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning
of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any "net income from foreclosure
property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.
(b) The Servicer shall separately account for all funds
collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property and
shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, with
respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders (the "REO Account"), which shall be an
Eligible Account. The Servicer shall be permitted to allow the Collection
Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO
Property. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest
income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.
(c) The Servicer shall have full power and authority,
subject only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to
do any and all things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with
the manner in which the Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by
the Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period
(subject to the requirement of prompt disposition set forth in Section 3.23(a))
as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders. In
connection therewith, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited in
the REO Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer's
receipt thereof, all revenues received by it with respect to an REO Property and
shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management
and maintenance of such REO Property including, without limitation:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of
such REO Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of
such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;
and
(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain, operate
and dispose of such REO Property.
To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with
respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in
clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Servicer
shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes
if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the
REO Property and if in the Servicer's judgment, the payment of such amounts will
be recoverable from the rental or sale of the REO Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Servicer nor the
Trustee shall:
(A) authorize the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or
extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its
terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real
Property;
(B) authorize any amount to be received or accrued under
any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;
(C) authorize any construction on any REO Property, other
than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if
more than ten percent of the construction of such building or other improvement
was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all
within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or
(D) authorize any Person to Directly Operate any REO
Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the
Trust Fund;
unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel,
provided to the Trustee, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by the REMIC, in
which case the Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion
of Counsel.
The Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for
the operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:
(A) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall
not be inconsistent herewith;
(B) any such contract shall require, or shall be
administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO
Property, including those listed above and remit all related revenues (net of
such costs and expenses) to the Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event
later than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent
Contractor;
(C) none of the provisions of this Section 3.23(c)
relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent
Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Servicer of any of its duties and
obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to
the operation and management of any such REO Property; and
(D) the Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto
to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in
connection with the operation and management of such REO Property.
The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement
with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties
and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees
owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the
Servicer's compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees;
provided, however, that to the extent that any payments made by such Independent
Contractor would constitute Servicing Advances if made by the Servicer, such
amounts shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances made by the Servicer.
(d) In addition to the withdrawals permitted under
Section 3.23(c), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
REO Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid
Servicing Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse
itself or any Sub-Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made
in respect of such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan. On the Servicer
Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by
it and deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section
3.10(d)(ii), for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance
with Section 4.01, the income from the related REO Property received during the

at such price and upon such terms and conditions as shall be normal and usual in
the Servicing Standard.
(f) The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any
amount required by law to be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related

in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Servicer Remittance Date in the

pay Compensating Interest with respect to Relief Act Interest Shortfalls.
SECTION 3.25 [Reserved].
SECTION 3.26 Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of
Mortgage Rates and Monthly Payments.
In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or
liability with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the aggregate results from or is
attributable to adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated
Principal Balances that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent
with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer,
upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deposit in the
Collection Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and any
successor servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall
survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Section 3.26 shall not limit the ability of the Servicer to seek
recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor under the terms of the
related Mortgage Note, as permitted by law.
SECTION 3.27 [Reserved].
SECTION 3.28 [Reserved].
SECTION 3.29 Advance Facility.
The Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or
other facility (any such arrangement, an "Advance Facility") under which (1) the
Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to another Person (together with such
Person's successors and assigns, an "Advancing Person") the Servicer's rights
under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any Advances or Servicing Advances
and/or (2) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or all Advances and/or
Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this
Agreement. No consent of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificateholders or
any other party shall be required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance
Facility. The Servicer shall notify each other party to this Agreement prior to
or promptly after entering into or terminating any Advance Facility.
Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advancing
Person agrees to fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances on the Servicer's
behalf, the Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make
Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement.
If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, and for so long as an Advancing
Person remains entitled to receive reimbursement for any Advances including
Nonrecoverable Advances ("Advance Reimbursement Amounts") and/or Servicing
Advances including Nonrecoverable Advances ("Servicing Advance Reimbursement
Amounts" and together with Advance Reimbursement Amounts, "Reimbursement
Amounts") (in each case to the extent such type of Reimbursement Amount is
included in the Advance Facility), as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement,
then the Servicer shall identify such Reimbursement Amounts consistent with the
reimbursement rights set forth in Section 3.11(a)(ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii) and
remit such Reimbursement Amounts in accordance with Section 3.10(b) or otherwise
in accordance with the documentation establishing the Advance Facility to such
Advancing Person or to a trustee, agent or custodian (an "Advance Facility
Trustee") designated by such Advancing Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
so required pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, the Servicer may
direct, and if so directed the Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall pay to
the Advance Facility Trustee the Reimbursement Amounts identified pursuant to
the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no
event shall Advance Reimbursement Amounts or Servicing Advance Reimbursement
Amounts be included in the Available Funds or distributed to Certificateholders.
Reimbursement Amounts shall consist solely of amounts in
respect of Advances and/or Servicing Advances made with respect to the Mortgage
Loans for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in
accordance with this Agreement, assuming the Servicer or the Advancing Person
had made the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, except with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances as
set forth in this Agreement, no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement from
funds held in the Collection Account for future distribution to
Certificateholders pursuant to this Agreement. None of the Depositor or the
Trustee shall have any duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any
Reimbursement Amount, nor shall the Depositor or the Trustee have any
responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility or
the payment of Reimbursement Amounts to the related Advancing Person or Advance
Facility Trustee. The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor
servicer and (upon request) the Trustee a detailed accounting on a loan by loan
basis as to amounts advanced by, sold, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to
any Advancing Person. The successor servicer shall be entitled to rely on any
such information provided by the predecessor servicer, and the successor
servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information. Any successor
Servicer shall reimburse the predecessor Servicer and itself for outstanding
Advances and Servicing Advances, respectively, with respect to each Mortgage
Loan on a first in, first out ("FIFO") basis; provided that the successor
Servicer has received prior written notice from the predecessor Servicer or the
Advancing Person of reimbursement amounts owed to the predecessor Servicer.
Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Mortgage Loan shall be applied to
reimburse Advances outstanding with respect to that Mortgage Loan before being
applied to reimburse Servicing Advances outstanding with respect to that
Mortgage Loan.
An Advancing Person who receives an assignment or pledge of
the rights to be reimbursed for Advances and/or Servicing Advances, and/or whose
obligations hereunder are limited to the funding or purchase of Advances and/or
Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the criteria for qualification
of a subservicer set forth in this Agreement.
Upon the direction of and at the expense of the Servicer, the
Trustee agrees to execute such acknowledgments provided by the Servicer
recognizing the interests of any Advance Facility Trustee in such Reimbursement
Amounts as the Servicer may cause to be made subject to Advance Facilities
pursuant to this Section 3.29.
The Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed for all
Advances and Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related
rights to be reimbursed therefor have not been sold, assigned or pledged to an
Advancing Person.
The Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, any
successor servicer and the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or damage
resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent
that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of
negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct or breach of its duties hereunder
on the part of the Depositor, the Trustee or any successor servicer.
Any amendment to this Section 3.29 or to any other provision
of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an
Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.29, including
amendments to add provisions relating to a successor servicer, may be entered
into by the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer without the consent of any
Certificateholder, provided such amendment complies with Section 11.01 hereof.
All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of each party
hereto of any such amendment shall be borne solely by the Servicer. Prior to
entering into an Advance Facility, the Servicer shall notify the Advancing
Person in writing that: (a) the Advances and/or Servicing Advances purchased,
financed by and/or pledged to the Advancing Person are obligations owed to the
Servicer on a non-recourse basis payable only from the cash flows and proceeds
received under this Agreement for reimbursement of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances only to the extent provided herein, and the Trustee and the Trust are
not otherwise obligated or liable to repay any Advances and/or Servicing
Advances financed by the Advancing Person and (b) the Trustee shall not have any
responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility
between the Servicer and the Advancing Person.

other Class of Certificates. The payment of the foregoing amounts to the Holders
of the Class P Certificates shall not reduce the Certificate Principal Balances
thereof.
(f) The Trustee shall make distributions in respect of a
Distribution Date to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date
(other than as provided in Section 10.01 respecting the final distribution), in
the case of Certificateholders of the Regular Certificates, by check or money
order mailed to such Certificateholder at the address appearing in the
Certificate Register, or by wire transfer. Distributions among
Certificateholders shall be made in proportion to the Percentage Interests
evidenced by the Certificates held by such Certificateholders.
(g) Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry
Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, which shall credit the amount of

each indirect participating brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect
participating firm") for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be
responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents.
All such credits and disbursements with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate are
to be made by the Depository and the Depository Participants in accordance with
the provisions of the Certificates. None of the Trustee, the Depositor or the

distributions, an amount equal to the amount of Subsequent Recoveries deposited
into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 shall be applied to
increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the

amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries shall be applied to increase the
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next Highest
Priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that
Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.08. Holders of such Certificates
will not be entitled to any distribution in respect of interest on the amount of
such increases for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date
on which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the
Certificate Principal Balance of each Certificate of such Class in accordance
with its respective Percentage Interest.
(i) It is the intention of all of the parties hereto that
the Class C Certificates receive all principal and interest received by the
Trust on the Mortgage Loans that is not otherwise distributable to any other
Class of Regular Certificates or REMIC Regular Interests and that the Residual
Certificates are to receive no principal and interest. If the Trustee determines
that the Residual Certificates are entitled to any distributions, the Trustee,
prior to any such distribution to any Residual Certificate, shall notify the
Depositor of such impending distribution but shall make such distribution in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement until this Agreement is amended as
specified in the following sentence. Upon such notification, the Depositor will
request an amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to revise such
mistake in the distribution provisions. The Residual Certificate Holders, by
acceptance of their Certificates, and the Servicer(s), hereby agree to any such
amendment and no further consent shall be necessary, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in Section 11.01 of this Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided,
however, that such amendment shall otherwise comply with Section 11.01 hereof.

service desk and indicating such. The Trustee shall have the right to change the
way such statements are distributed in order to make such distribution more
convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and the Trustee shall
provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such
changes. As a condition to access to the Trustee's internet website, the Trustee
may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer. The Trustee will
not be liable for the dissemination of information in accordance with this
Agreement. The Trustee shall also be entitled to rely on but shall not be
responsible for the content or accuracy of any information provided by third
parties for purposes of preparing the Distribution Date statement and may affix
thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion
(without suggesting liability on the part of any other party thereto).
In the case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses
(i) and (ii) above, the amounts shall be expressed in a separate section of the
report as a dollar amount for each Class for each $1,000 original dollar amount
as of the Cut-off Date.
(b) Within a reasonable period of time after the end of
each calendar year, the Trustee shall, upon written request, furnish to each
Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Certificateholder of a
Regular Certificate, if requested in writing by such Person, such information as
is reasonably necessary to provide to such Person a statement containing the
information set forth in subclauses (i) and (ii) above, aggregated for such
calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a
Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
prepared and furnished by the Trustee to Certificateholders pursuant to any
requirements of the Code as are in force from time to time.
(c) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make
available to the Residual Certificateholders a copy of the reports forwarded to
the Regular Certificateholders in respect of such Distribution Date with such
other information as the Trustee deems necessary or appropriate.
(d) Within a reasonable period of time after the end of
each calendar year, the Trustee shall deliver to each Person who at any time
during the calendar year was a Residual Certificateholder, if requested in
writing by such Person, such information as is reasonably necessary to provide
to such Person a statement containing the information provided pursuant to the
previous paragraph aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion
thereof during which such Person was a Residual Certificateholder. Such
obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent
that substantially comparable information shall be prepared and furnished to
Certificateholders by the Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the Code as

SECTION 4.04 Remittance Reports; Advances.
(a) On or before the fifth Business Day prior to the
related Distribution Date, the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Trustee by telecopy or electronic mail (or by such other means as the
Servicer and the Trustee may agree from time to time) up to two Remittance
Reports with respect to the related Distribution Date, which Remittance Reports
the Trustee shall use in preparing the statement pursuant to Section 4.03. On or
before the fifth Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date, the
Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in addition to
the information provided on the Remittance Report, such other information
reasonably available to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may
reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary to make the
distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and to prepare the statements to
Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.03. The Trustee shall not be
responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it
by the Servicer.
(b) The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for
any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.04(d), the sum of (i)
the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due
during the related Due Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly
Payments were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the Close of Business on
the related Determination Date and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which
REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Due Period and as to
which REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Due
Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the REO Imputed Interest on
such REO Property for the most recently ended calendar month, over the net
income from such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant
to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment on each Balloon Mortgage Loan with a
delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the assumed monthly payment that would
have been due on the related Due Date based on the original principal
amortization schedule for such Balloon Mortgage Loan.
On or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer
Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate
amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or
(ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future
distribution (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the
records of Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have
been, as permitted by this Section 4.04, used by the Servicer in discharge of
any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii)
aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. Any amounts held for future
distribution used by the Servicer to make an Advance as permitted in the
preceding sentence shall be appropriately reflected in the Servicer's records
and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before
any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for
the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made
on the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would
be distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on
such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not
been so used to make Advances. The Trustee will provide notice to the Servicer
by telecopy by the Close of Business on any Servicer Remittance Date in the
event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee on such date is
less than the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related
Distribution Date, as set forth in the related Remittance Report.
(c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such Advances
is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject
to (d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, shall continue until the
Mortgage Loan is paid in full or until all Liquidation Proceeds thereon have
been recovered, or a Final Recovery Determination has been made thereon.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the
Servicer if such Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination by the Servicer that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing Advance, if
made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an
Officers' Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Depositor and the
Trustee.
SECTION 4.05 Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.
No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish
and maintain with itself a separate, segregated trust account titled, "Net WAC
Rate Carryover Reserve Account, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as
Trustee, in trust for registered Holders of Soundview Home Loan Trust 2005-DO1,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2005-DO1." All amounts deposited in the Net
WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the
Floating Rate Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 4.01(d).
On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amount payable to the Floating Rate Certificates, the Trustee has been
directed by the Class C Certificateholders to, and therefore will, deposit into
the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described in Section
4.01(d)(iv), rather than distributing such amounts to the Class C
Certificateholders. In addition, any payments received by the Trustee under the
Cap Contract on each Distribution Date will be deposited into the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account. On each such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
hold all such amounts for the benefit of the Holders of the Floating Rate
Certificates, and will distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Floating
Rate Certificates in the amounts and priorities set forth in Section 4.01(d).
On each Distribution Date, any amounts remaining in the Net
WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (representing payments received by the
Trustee under the Cap Contract) after the payment of any Net WAC Rate Carryover
Amounts on the Floating Rate Certificates for such Distribution Date, shall be
payable to the Trustee.
For federal and state income tax purposes, the Trustee will be
deemed to be the owner of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account. All
amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (other than
amounts received under the Cap Contract) shall be treated as amounts distributed
by REMIC 2 to the Holder of the Class C Interest and by REMIC 3 to the Holder of
the Class C Certificates. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be an
"outside reserve fund" within the meaning of Treasury regulation Section
1.860G-2(h). Upon the termination of the Trust, or the payment in full of the
Floating Rate Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust and distributed to the
Trustee or its designee. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be part
of the Trust but not part of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the
Floating Rate Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be
payments with respect to a "regular interest" in a REMIC within the meaning of
Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).
By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Class C
Certificateholder hereby agrees to direct the Trustee, and the Trustee hereby is
directed, to deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts
described above on each Distribution Date as to which there is any Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amount rather than distributing such amounts to the Class C
Certificateholders. By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Class C
Certificateholder further agrees that such direction is given for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by
such acceptance.
Amounts on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve
Account shall remain uninvested.
For federal tax return and information reporting, the value of
the right to receive payments from the Net WAC Rate Carryover Account is
$90,000.00.
SECTION 4.06 [Reserved].

to Holders of (i) REMIC 1 Regular Interest LTAA and REMIC 1 Regular Interest
LTP, in that order and (ii) REMIC 1 Regular Interest LTZZ, respectively;
provided that REMIC 1 Regular Interest LTP shall not be reduced until the

Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date

issue, be executed, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee to or upon the
order of the Depositor concurrently with the sale and assignment to the Trustee
of the Trust Fund. The Floating Rate Certificates shall be initially evidenced
by one or more Certificates representing a Percentage Interest with a minimum
dollar denomination of $25,000 and integral dollar multiples of $1.00 in excess
thereof, except that one Certificate of each such Class of Certificates may be
in a different denomination so that the sum of the denominations of all
outstanding Certificates of such Class shall equal the Certificate Principal

Certificates and the Residual Certificates are issuable in any Percentage
Interests; provided, however, that the sum of all such percentages for each such
Class totals 100% and no more than ten Certificates of each Class may be issued
and outstanding at any one time.
The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by
manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by a Responsible Officer.

at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of
the Trustee shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any
of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such
Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless such Certificate shall have been
manually authenticated by the Trustee substantially in the form provided for
herein, and such authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date
of their authentication. Subject to Section 5.02(c), the Floating Rate
Certificates shall be Book-Entry Certificates. The other Classes of Certificates

Residual Certificate, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates
of the same aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be
exchanged for other Certificates in authorized denominations and the same
aggregate Percentage Interests, upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and
authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
In addition, (i) with respect to each Class R Certificate, the holder thereof
may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R Certificate for two
separate certificates, each representing such holder's respective Percentage
Interest in the Class R-1 Interest and the Class R-2 Interest that was evidenced

R-X Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above,
such Class R-X Certificate for two separate certificates, each representing such
holder's respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-3 Interest and the Class
R-4 Interest that was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) below, the
Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the
Depository or its nominee and at all times: (i) registration of such
Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository;
(ii) the Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the
Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such
Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of registration of such Certificates
on the books of the Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established
by the Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees,
charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee shall for
all purposes deal with the Depository as representative of the Certificate
Owners of the Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of Holders
under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such
representative shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with
respect to different Certificate Owners; (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be
fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with
respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository
Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and Persons shown on
the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate
Owners; and (vii) the direct participants of the Depository shall have no rights
under this Agreement under or with respect to any of the Certificates held on
their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Trustee
and its agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the
Certificates for all purposes whatsoever.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates
shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository
Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each
Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
Certificate Owners that it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as
agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures. The parties hereto
are hereby authorized to execute a Letter of Representations with the Depository
or take such other action as may be necessary or desirable to register a
Book-Entry Certificate to the Depository. In the event of any conflict between
the terms of any such Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of
this Agreement shall control.
(c) If (i)(x) the Depository or the Depositor advises the
Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge
properly its responsibilities as Depository and (y) the Trustee or the Depositor
is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of a
Servicer Event of Termination, the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry
Certificates representing Percentage Interests of such Classes aggregating not
less than 51% advise the Trustee and Depository through the Financial
Intermediaries and the Depository Participants in writing that the continuation
of a book-entry system through the Depository to the exclusion of definitive,
fully registered certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") to Certificate
Owners is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners. Upon
surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the Book-Entry Certificates by the
Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Trustee shall, in the case of (i) and (ii) above, execute on
behalf of the Trust and authenticate the Definitive Certificates. Neither the
Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Trustee,
the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer, any Paying Agent and the Depositor
shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder.
(d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any
Class B Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual

is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "1933 Act"), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in
accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer (other
than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the
Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor or, in the case of the Class R-X
Certificates, the first transfer by an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the
transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual Certificate to the issuer
under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a
transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual Certificate from the issuer
under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the
Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor), (i) unless such transfer is made in
reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the
Trustee, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) under the 1933
Act, the Trustee and the Depositor shall require a written Opinion of Counsel
(which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer may
be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the
basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor
or (ii) the Trustee shall require the transferor to execute a transferor
certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit L) and the
transferee to execute an investment letter (in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit J) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and
the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall
not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor. The Holder of a Private
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor against any liability that may result if
the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such
transfer of any Ownership Interest in any Private Certificate that is a
Book-Entry Certificate, except with respect to the initial transfer of any such
Ownership Interest by the Depositor, such transfer shall be required to be made
in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, and the transferor will be deemed
to have made each of the transferor representations and warranties set forth
Exhibit L hereto in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a
Definitive Certificate and the transferee will be deemed to have made each of
the transferee representations and warranties set forth Exhibit J hereto in
respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Certificate. The
Certificate Owner of any such Ownership Interest in any such Book-Entry
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor against any liability that may result if
the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no certification or Opinion of
Counsel described above in this Section 5.02(d) will be required in connection
with the transfer, on the Closing Date, of any Residual Certificate by the
Depositor to an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of the 1933
Act.
No transfer of a Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or
Residual Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan subject
to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly,
on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with "Plan
Assets" of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulation
promulgated at 29 C.F.R. ss. 2510.3-101 ("Plan Assets"), as certified by such
transferee in the form of Exhibit M, unless the Trustee is provided with an
Opinion of Counsel for the benefit of the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Servicer and on which they may rely which establishes to the satisfaction of the
Trustee that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under applicable
law, will not constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer, the
Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations
or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those
undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Neither a
certification nor an Opinion of Counsel will be required in connection with (i)
the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of
the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual
Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the
Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual
Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under
the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case,
the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall have deemed to have represented
that such Affiliate is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the
Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which,
upon the request of the Trustee, shall be a written representation) from the
Depositor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.
Each Transferee of a Mezzanine Certificate or Class B
Certificate will be deemed to have represented by virtue of its purchase or
holding of such Certificate (or interest therein) (or in the case a Class B
Certificate, must represent) that either (a) such Transferee is not a Plan or
purchasing such Certificate with Plan Assets, (b) in the case of the Mezzanine
Certificates it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on
Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 90-59, 55 Fed. Reg. 36724 (September 6,
1990), as amended by PTE 97-34, 62 Fed. Reg. 39021 (July 21, 1997), PTE 2000-58,
65 Fed. Reg. 67765 (November 13, 2000) and PTE 2002-41, 67 Fed. Reg. 54487
(August 22, 2002) (the "Exemption"), and that it understands that there are
certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption including that such
Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than "BBB-" (or
its equivalent) by a Rating Agency or (c) (i) such Transferee is an insurance
company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase or hold such Certificate (or
interest therein) is an "insurance company general account" (as defined in U.S.
Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and
(iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been
satisfied.
If any Mezzanine Certificate or Private Certificate or any
interest therein is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the two
preceding paragraphs, the next preceding permitted beneficial owner will be
treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate retroactive to the date of
transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose
acquisition or holding of any such Certificate or interest therein was effected
in violation of the provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust from
and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by those
parties as a result of that acquisition or holding.
Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in
a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to
have irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact
to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to
execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in
connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the
following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and
shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in
its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a PRO RATA
undivided interest.
(iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Trustee shall as a
condition to registration of the transfer, require delivery to it, in
form and substance satisfactory to it, of each of the following:
(A) an affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the
proposed transferee to the effect that such transferee is a Permitted Transferee
and that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate
that is the subject of the proposed transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for
any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee; and
(B) a covenant of the proposed transferee to the effect
that the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide by the transfer
restrictions applicable to the Residual Certificates.
(iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of
this Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights
in the purported transferee. If any purported transferee shall, in
violation of the provisions of this Section, become a Holder of a
Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such Residual
Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that
the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in
fact permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such
Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any
Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that
is in fact not permitted by this Section or for making any
distributions due on such Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or
taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the
provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee received the
documents specified in clause (iii). The Trustee shall be entitled to
recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not
a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all
distributions made on such Residual Certificate. Any such distributions
so recovered by the Trustee shall be distributed and delivered by the
Trustee to the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a
Permitted Transferee.
(v) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee
acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation
of the restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee shall have the
right but not the obligation, without notice to the Holder of such
Residual Certificate or any other Person having an Ownership Interest
therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale of such
Residual Certificate. The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions
(which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its
affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if
any, will be remitted by the Trustee to the previous Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the
event that the Trustee determines that the Holder of such Residual
Certificate may be liable for any amount due under this Section or any
other provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee may withhold a
corresponding amount from such remittance as security for such claim.
The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (v) shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee and it shall not be
liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(vi) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee
acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation
of the restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee upon receipt of
reasonable compensation will provide to the Internal Revenue Service,
and to the persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the
Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed under Section
860E(e)(5) of the Code on transfers of residual interests to
disqualified organizations.
The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply
to transfers occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been
delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, (i)
written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such Rating
Agency to downgrade its rating of the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.
(e) No service charge shall be made for any registration
of transfer or exchange of Certificates of any Class, but the Certificate
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Certificates.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be canceled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant
to its standard procedures.
SECTION 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen
Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the
Certificate Registrar or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii) there
is delivered to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that
such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute on behalf of the Trust, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of like tenor and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) in
connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section,
shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust,
as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificate shall be found at any time.
SECTION 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.
The Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent and any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent may treat the Person,
including a Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner
of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer,
the Trust, the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.
SECTION 5.05 Appointment of Paying Agent.
(a) The Paying Agent shall make distributions to
Certificateholders from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.01 and
shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Trustee. The duties of the
Paying Agent may include the obligation (i) to withdraw funds from the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11(a) and for the purpose of making the
distributions referred to above and (ii) to distribute statements and provide
information to Certificateholders as required hereunder. The Paying Agent
hereunder shall at all times be an entity duly organized and validly existing
under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authorities. The Paying Agent shall initially be
the Trustee. The Trustee may appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent, which
appointment shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor.
(b) The Trustee shall cause the Paying Agent (if other
than the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent shall hold
all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for
the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be
paid to such Certificateholders and shall agree that it shall comply with all
requirements of the Code regarding the withholding of payments in respect of
Federal income taxes due from Certificate Owners and otherwise comply with the
provisions of this Agreement applicable to it.
ARTICLE VI
THE SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR
SECTION 6.01 Liability of the Servicer and the Depositor.
The Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to
the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by
Servicer herein. The Depositor shall be liable in accordance herewith only to
the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the
Depositor.
SECTION 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the
Obligations of, the Servicer or the Depositor.
Any entity into which the Servicer or Depositor may be merged
or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Servicer or the Depositor shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the business of the Servicer or the Depositor, shall
be the successor of the Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be,
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor Servicer shall satisfy
all the requirements of Section 7.02 with respect to the qualifications of a
successor Servicer.
SECTION 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and
Others.
Neither the Servicer nor the Depositor nor any of the
directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer or the Depositor
shall be under any liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any
action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action by the Servicer or
the Depositor in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in
judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer,
the Depositor or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the
performance of duties of the Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, or
by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties of the
Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, hereunder. The Servicer and any
director or officer or employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith
on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any
Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer and the Depositor,
and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Servicer or the
Depositor, shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against any loss,
liability or expense incurred in connection with (i) any legal action relating
to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence or by
reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder or by
reason of its failure to perform its obligations or duties hereunder and (ii)
any breach of a representation or warranty regarding the Mortgage Loans. The
Servicer or the Depositor may initiate any such action which it may deem
necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement, and the rights and duties
of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In
such event, unless the Depositor or the Servicer acts without the consent of the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, the
reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting
therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust and the Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and
to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being
prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the
Collection Account. The Servicer's right to indemnity or reimbursement pursuant
to this Section shall survive any resignation or termination of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 6.04 or 7.01 with respect to any losses, expenses, costs or
liabilities arising prior to such resignation or termination (or arising from
events that occurred prior to such resignation or termination). This paragraph
shall apply to the Servicer solely in its capacity as Servicer hereunder and in
no other capacities. Without limiting the foregoing, the Servicer shall
undertake to defend any claims against the Trust Fund, the Trustee and/or itself
initiated by a Borrower or otherwise related to the servicing of any Mortgage
Loan, the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability
resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust and
the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection
Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of
reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any
amount in the Collection Account.
SECTION 6.04 Servicer Not to Resign.
The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no
longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination pursuant to the
preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced
by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer
and delivered to the Trustee. No resignation of the Servicer shall become
effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the
Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities
arising prior to the assumption of servicing duties by the Trustee or the
appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.
Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not
assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any
other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any
other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be
performed by the Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment
shall not prohibit the Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any
indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, no
Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto
shall not be required to recognize any Subservicer as an indemnitee under this
Agreement.
SECTION 6.05 Delegation of Duties.
In the ordinary course of business, the Servicer at any time
may delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its
Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with standards
comparable to those set forth in Section 3.01. Such delegation shall not relieve
the Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties
and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 6.04.
Except as provided in Section 3.02, no such delegation is permitted that results
in the delegee subservicing any Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall provide the
Trustee with 60 days prior written notice prior to the delegation of any of its
duties to any Person other than any of the Servicer's Affiliates or their
respective successors and assigns.
SECTION 6.06 [Reserved].
SECTION 6.07 Inspection.
The Servicer, in its capacity as Servicer, shall afford the
Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all
records maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations
hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such
obligations.

SECTION 7.01 Servicer Events of Termination.
(a) If any one of the following events ("Servicer Events
of Termination") shall occur and be continuing:
(i) (A) The failure by the Servicer to make any Advance;
or (B) any other failure by the Servicer to deposit in the Collection
Account or the Distribution Account any deposit required to be made
under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a
period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of
such failure shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or to
the Servicer and the Trustee by any Holders of a Regular Certificate
evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(ii) The failure by the Servicer to make any required
Servicing Advance which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30
days, or the failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any
material respect, any other covenants, obligations or agreements of the
Servicer as set forth in this Agreement, which failure continues
unremedied for a period of 30 days (or if such failure or breach cannot
be remedied within 30 days, then such remedy shall have been commenced
within 30 days and diligently pursued thereafter; provided, however,
that in no event shall such failure or breach be allowed to exist for a
period of greater than 90 days), after the date (A) on which written
notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or to the Trustee by any
Holders of a Regular Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting
Rights or (B) of actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing
Officer of the Servicer; or
(iii) The entry against the Servicer of a decree or order
by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in
the premises for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, conservatorship, receivership,
readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and
the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for
a period of 60 days; or
(iv) The Servicer shall voluntarily go into liquidation,
consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator
or similar person in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the

or a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
conservator, receiver, liquidator or similar person in any insolvency,
readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall
have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall
have remained in force undischarged, unbonded or unstayed for a period
of 60 days; or the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay
its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take
advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make
an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend
payment of its obligations;
(b) then, and in each and every such case, so long as a
Servicer Event of Termination shall not have been remedied within the applicable
grace period, (x) with respect solely to clause (i)(A) above, if such Advance is
not made by 11:00 A.M., New York time, on the Business Day immediately following
the Servicer Remittance Date (provided the Trustee shall give the Servicer
notice of such failure to advance by 5:00 P.M. New York time on the Servicer
Remittance Date), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations
of the Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and
to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof and the Trustee, or a successor
servicer appointed in accordance with Section 7.02, shall immediately make such
Advance and assume, pursuant to Section 7.02, the duties of a successor Servicer
and (y) in the case of (i)(B), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Trustee shall, at
the direction of the Holders of each Class of Regular Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 51%, by notice then given in
writing to the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders of
Certificates), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as
servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Servicer shall also be
given to each Rating Agency, the Depositor and the Servicer. On or after the
receipt by the Servicer (and by the Trustee if such notice is given by the
Holders) of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans
or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
this Section; and, without limitation, and the 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 of each Mortgage Loan and related documents or otherwise. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee (or the applicable successor
Servicer) in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the
Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Trustee
of all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the
Servicer's functions under this Agreement within ten Business Days subsequent to
such notice, the transfer within one Business Day subsequent to such notice to
the Trustee (or the applicable successor Servicer) for the administration by it
of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the Servicer and to be
deposited by it in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, any REO
Account or any Servicing Account or that have been deposited by the Servicer in
such accounts or thereafter received by the Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans or any REO Property received by the Servicer. All reasonable
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
transferring the Mortgage Files to the successor Servicer and amending this
Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall
be paid by the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the
Trustee, the initial Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of
such costs and expenses and to the extent not paid by the Servicer, by the
Trust.
SECTION 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) From the time the Servicer (and the Trustee, if
notice is sent by the Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to
Section 7.01 or 6.04, the Trustee (or such other successor Servicer as is
approved in accordance with this Agreement) shall be the successor in all
respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and
the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all
the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof arising on and after its succession.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto agree that the Trustee, in its
capacity as successor Servicer, immediately will assume all of the obligations
of the Servicer to make advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee, in
its capacity as successor Servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of
information and/or documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts.
It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that there will be a period of
transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the transition of servicing
obligations is fully effective. As compensation therefor, the Trustee (or such
other successor Servicer) shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer
would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been
given. Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Trustee is unwilling to act as
successor Servicer or (ii) if the Trustee is legally unable so to act, the
Trustee shall appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint,
any established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage
loan or home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than
$50,000,000 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; provided, that the appointment of any such successor Servicer will
not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned
to the Certificates by the Rating Agencies as evidenced by a letter to such
effect from the Rating Agencies. Pending appointment of a successor to the
Servicer hereunder, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove
provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor
shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in
an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise have
received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other compensation as the Trustee and
such successor shall agree, not to exceed the Servicing Fee). The appointment of
a successor Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer
which may have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer
to pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.14 or to
reimburse the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.06), nor shall any successor
Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for
any breach by such Servicer of any of its representations or warranties
contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Trustee and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. All Servicing Transfer Costs shall
be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Servicer defaults in its
obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor Servicer
or the Trustee (in which case the successor Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the
Trust).
(b) Any successor to the Servicer, including the Trustee,
shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and
maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and
omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a
fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same
extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.14.
SECTION 7.03 Waiver of Defaults.
The Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf of all
Certificateholders, waive any events permitting removal of the Servicer as
servicer pursuant to this Article VII, provided, however, that the Majority
Certificateholders may not waive a default in making a required distribution on
a Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate. Upon any
waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist and any Servicer
Event of Termination arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for
every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereto except to the extent
expressly so waived. Notice of any such waiver shall be given by the Trustee to
the Rating Agencies.
SECTION 7.04 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to
the Servicer pursuant to this Article VII or Section 6.04, the Trustee shall
give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and each Rating Agency.
(b) No later than 60 days after the occurrence of any
event which constitutes or which, with notice or a lapse of time or both, would
constitute a Servicer Event of Termination for five Business Days after a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an
event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of
such occurrence unless such default or Servicer Event of Termination shall have
been waived or cured.
SECTION 7.05 Survivability of Servicer Liabilities.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon
termination of the Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer which
accrued prior to such termination shall survive such termination.
ARTICLE VIII
THE TRUSTEE
SECTION 8.01 Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Termination which may
have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement. If a Servicer Event of Termination has
occurred (which has not been cured) of which a Responsible Officer has
knowledge, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise,
as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his own affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Agreement; provided, however, that the
Trustee will not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such
resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents or other
instruments. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements
of this Agreement in a material manner the Trustee shall take such action as it
deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not
corrected to the Trustee's satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof
to the Certificateholders.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination, and after the curing of all such Servicer Events of
Termination which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the
Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this
Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance
of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the
part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth
of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for an
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be personally liable with
respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in
good faith in accordance with the direction of the Majority
Certificateholders relating to the time, method and place of conducting
any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
or omitting to exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
under this Agreement; and
(iv) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
any failure by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the
Servicer referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01(a) or of
the existence of any Servicer Event of Termination unless a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office obtains actual
knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice of
such failure from the Depositor, the Servicer or the Majority
Certificateholders.
The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and
none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require
the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any
of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such
time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the
rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) the Trustee may request and rely upon, and shall be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution,
Officers' Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper party or parties, and the manner of obtaining consents and
of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by
Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as
the Trustee may prescribe;
(ii) the Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion
of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation
hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the
Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; the right of the
Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement
shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be
answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of any such act;
(iv) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by
it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers
conferred upon it by this Agreement;
(v) prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Termination
which may have occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or documents, unless
requested in writing to do so by the Majority Certificateholder;
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the
Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by
it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded
to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require
reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or liability as a
condition to such proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such
examination shall be paid by the Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee,
shall be reimbursed by the Servicer upon demand and, if not reimbursed
by the Servicer, shall be reimbursed by the Trust. Nothing in this
clause (v) shall derogate from the obligation of the Servicer to
observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information
regarding the Mortgagors;
(vi) the Trustee shall not be accountable, shall have no
liability and makes no representation as to any acts or omissions
hereunder of the Servicer until such time as the Trustee may be
required to act as Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 and thereupon only
for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as successor Servicer;
(vii) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys, custodians or nominees;
(viii) the right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary
act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and
the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or
willful misconduct in the performance of such act;
(ix) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for any
loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection
Account or the REO Account made at the direction of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.12; and
(x) The Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to
receive compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee's
economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser,
administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian
with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using
Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and
(iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments. Such
compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or
payable pursuant to Section 3.11.
In order to comply with its duties under the U.S. Patriot Act,
the Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from
the other parties hereto, including, but not limited to, such parties' name,
address and other identifying information.
SECTION 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage
Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other
than the authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as
the statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for
the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the
signature and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any
Mortgage Loan or related document or MERS or the MERS System other than with
respect to the Trustee's execution and authentication of the Certificates. The
Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Servicer, or
for the use or application of any funds paid to the Servicer in respect of the
Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the
Servicer. The Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for
or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or
any Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the
maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the
sufficiency of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be
distributed to Certificateholders under this Agreement, including, without
limitation: the existence, condition and ownership of any Mortgaged Property;
the existence and enforceability of any hazard insurance thereon (other than if
the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02);
the validity of the assignment of any Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any
intervening assignment; the completeness of any Mortgage Loan; the performance
or enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other than if the Trustee shall assume the
duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); the compliance by the
Depositor, the Originator, the Seller or the Servicer with any warranty or
representation made under this Agreement or in any related document or the
accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Trustee's receipt
of notice or other discovery of any non-compliance therewith or any breach
thereof; any investment of monies by or at the direction of the Servicer or any
loss resulting therefrom, it being understood that the Trustee shall remain
responsible for any Trust property that it may hold in its individual capacity;
the acts or omissions of any of the Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall
assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02), any Sub-Servicer or
any Mortgagor; any action of the Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall
assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02), or any Sub-
Servicer taken in the name of the Trustee; the failure of the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer to act or perform any duties required of it as agent of the Trustee
hereunder; or any action by the Trustee taken at the instruction of the Servicer
(other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to
Section 7.02); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the
Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the Trustee's duty to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to
Section 2.01. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing
or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise
perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to
it hereunder (unless the Trustee shall have become the successor Servicer).
SECTION 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become
the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it
were not Trustee and may transact any banking and trust business with the
Originator, the Servicer, the Depositor or their Affiliates.
SECTION 8.05 Trustee Compensation and Expenses.
(a) The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution
Account at any time, as compensation for its services hereunder, and pay to
itself, the amount described in Section 3.11(b)(vi) prior to making any
distributions to Certificateholders.
(b) The Trustee, or any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Trustee, shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless
against any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses and disbursements
incurred or made by the Trustee, including the compensation and the expenses and
disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee's
performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the
Trustee arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
its obligations and duties under this Agreement, other than any loss, liability
or expense (i) resulting from a breach of the Servicer's obligations and duties
under this Agreement for which the Trustee is indemnified under Section 8.05(b)
or (ii) any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Trustee in the performance of its
duties hereunder or by reason of the Trustee's reckless disregard of obligations
and duties hereunder or as a result of a breach of the Trustee's obligations
under Article X hereof. Any amounts payable to the Trustee, or any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Trustee, in respect of the indemnification
provided by this Section 8.05(a), or pursuant to any other right of
reimbursement from the Trust Fund that the Trustee, or any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Trustee, may have hereunder in its capacity as such,
may be withdrawn by the Trustee from the Distribution Account at any time. The
foregoing indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee.
(c) The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee or any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee from, and hold it harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense resulting from a breach of the
Servicer's obligations and duties under this Agreement. Such indemnity shall
survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement and the resignation or
removal of the Trustee and the Servicer for actions prior to such resignation or
removal. Any payment hereunder made by the Servicer to the Trustee shall be from
the Servicer's own funds, without reimbursement from the Trust Fund therefor.
SECTION 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be an entity duly
organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America or
any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such
entity publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to
the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for
the purposes of this Section 8.06, the combined capital and surplus of such
entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in
its most recent report of condition so published. The principal office of the
Trustee (other than the initial Trustee) shall be in a state with respect to
which an Opinion of Counsel has been delivered to such Trustee at the time such
Trustee is appointed Trustee to the effect that the Trust will not be a taxable
entity under the laws of such state. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.06, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 8.07.
SECTION 8.07 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the
Servicer and each Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the
Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Trustee and one copy to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall
have been so appointed and having accepted appointment within 30 days after the
giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor or if at any time the Trustee shall be
legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the
Depositor or the Servicer may remove the Trustee. If the Depositor or the
Servicer removes the Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding
sentence, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Majority Certificateholders may at any time remove the
Trustee by written instrument or instruments delivered to the Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee; the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to
appoint a successor trustee in accordance with this Section.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as
provided in Section 8.08.
SECTION 8.08 Successor Trustee.
Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Servicer and to its
predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become
effective, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Trustee. The Depositor, the Servicer and the predecessor Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably
be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor
Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of
such successor Trustee shall not result in a downgrading of the Regular
Certificates by either Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating
Agency.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as
provided in this Section 8.08, the successor Trustee shall mail notice of the
appointment of a successor Trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at
their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
SECTION 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity
succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 8.06 and 8.08, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding.
SECTION 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust or any Mortgaged Property may at the time be
located, the Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and
shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof,
and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. Any such co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject
to the written approval of the Servicer. If the Servicer shall not have joined
in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to
do, or in the case a Servicer Event of Termination shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06, and no notice to
Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 8.08. The Servicer shall be responsible for the
fees of any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed hereunder.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:
(i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred
or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or
co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or
co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee
joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any
jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed
(whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer
hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform
such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion
thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
direction of the Trustee;
(ii) no trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable
by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and
(iii) the Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly, may at
any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or
co-trustee except that following the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination, the Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation or
remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee
shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and
the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or
property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions
of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement
relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection
to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a
copy thereof given to the Depositor and the Servicer.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time,
constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in
respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee
or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor Trustee.
SECTION 8.11 Limitation of Liability.
The Certificates are executed by the Trustee, not in its
individual capacity but solely as Trustee of the Trust, in the exercise of the
powers and authority conferred and vested in it by the Trust Agreement. Each of
the undertakings and agreements made on the part of the Trustee in the
Certificates is made and intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement by
the Trustee but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust.
SECTION 8.12 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Certificates.
(a) All rights of action and claims under this Agreement
or the Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall
be brought in its own name or in its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all
Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any
recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Certificateholders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered.
(b) The Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor,
the Servicer and each Certificateholder upon reasonable prior notice during
normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Trustee in
respect of its duties hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee
responsible for performing such duties. Upon request, the Trustee shall furnish
the Depositor, the Servicer and any requesting Certificateholder with its most
recent financial statements. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller,
the Servicer, the Depositor and such Certificateholder and shall make available
to the Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor and such Certificateholder for review
and copying such books, documents or records as may be requested with respect to
the Trustee's duties hereunder. The Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Certificateholders shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action
or failure to act by the Trustee and are not obligated to supervise the
performance of the Trustee under this Agreement or otherwise.
SECTION 8.13 Suits for Enforcement.
In case a Servicer Event of Termination or other default by
the Servicer or the Depositor hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the
Trustee, shall, at the direction of the Majority Certificateholders, or may,
proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Certificateholders under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of
any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal,
equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, and subject
to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the
rights of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.
SECTION 8.14 Waiver of Bond Requirement.
The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder
hereby waives, any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any
part thereof, may be located that the Trustee post a bond or other surety with
any court, agency or body whatsoever.
SECTION 8.15 Waiver of Inventory, Accounting and Appraisal
Requirement.
The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder
hereby waives, any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any
part thereof, may be located that the Trustee file any inventory, accounting or
appraisal of the Trust with any court, agency or body at any time or in any
manner whatsoever.
ARTICLE IX

(a) REMIC elections as set forth in the Preliminary

Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred pursuant to this
Section 9.01(c) to the extent provided in Section 8.05.
(d) The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file, all of the
REMICs' federal and state tax and information returns (including Form 8811) as
the direct representative each REMIC created hereunder. The expenses of
preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee.
(e) The Holder of the Class R Certificate at any time
holding the largest Percentage Interest thereof shall be the "tax matters
person" as defined in the REMIC Provisions (the related "Tax Matters Person")
with respect to REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 and shall act as Tax Matters Person for
REMIC 1 and REMIC 2. The Holder of the Class R-X Certificate at any time holding
the largest Percentage Interest thereof shall be the Tax Matters Person with
respect to REMIC 3 and REMIC 4 and shall act as Tax Matters Person for REMIC 4
and REMIC 5. The Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall perform on
behalf of each REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local
taxing authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC

Person, shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such
information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the
transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization

request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any REMIC, enter
into settlement agreements with any government taxing agency, extend any statute
of limitations relating to any item of any REMIC and otherwise act on behalf of
any REMIC in relation to any tax matter involving the Trust.
(f) The Trustee, the Servicer and the Holders of
Certificates shall take any action or cause the REMIC to take any action
necessary to create or maintain the status of each REMIC as a REMIC under the
REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain
such status. Neither the Trustee, the Servicer nor the Holder of any Residual
Certificate shall take any action, cause any REMIC created hereunder to take any
action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the
REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger
the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax
upon such REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions
as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions
set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an "Adverse REMIC
Event") unless the Trustee and the Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel
(at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the
contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of
such a tax. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC
created hereunder or the assets therein, or causing such REMIC to take any
action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any
Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee and the Servicer,
or their respective designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action
could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC, and no
such Person shall take any such action or cause any REMIC to take any such
action as to which the Trustee or the Servicer has advised it in writing that an
Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
(g) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when
due any and all taxes imposed on each REMIC created hereunder by federal or
state governmental authorities. To the extent that such Trust taxes are not paid
by a Residual Certificateholder, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes
out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the
Residual Certificate in the REMICs or, if no such amounts are available, out of
other amounts held in the Distribution Account, and shall reduce amounts
otherwise payable to Holders of regular interests in the related REMIC. Subject
to the foregoing, in the event that a REMIC incurs a state or local tax,
including franchise taxes, as a result of a determination that such REMIC is
domiciled in the State of California for state tax purposes by virtue of the
location of the Servicer, the Servicer agrees to pay on behalf of such REMIC
when due, any and all state and local taxes imposed as a result of such a
determination, in the event that the Holder of the related Residual Certificate
fails to pay such taxes, if any, when imposed.
(h) The Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters Person,
shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect
to each REMIC created hereunder on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.
(i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made
to any REMIC created hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement
with respect to eligible substitute mortgage loans.
(j) Neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into
any arrangement by which any REMIC created hereunder will receive a fee or other
compensation for services.
(k) On or before April 15 of each calendar year beginning
in 2005, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and each Rating Agency an
Officers' Certificate stating the Servicer's compliance with the provisions of
this Section 9.01.
(l) The Trustee will apply for an Employee Identification
Number from the Internal Revenue Service via a Form SS-4 or other acceptable
method for all tax entities and shall complete the Form 8811.
SECTION 9.02 Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
Neither the Depositor, the Servicer nor the Trustee shall
sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a
disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the
bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of any REMIC created
hereunder pursuant to Article X of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant
to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a repurchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant
to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC, nor sell
or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept
any contributions to either REMIC after the Closing Date, unless it has received
an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party causing such sale,
disposition, or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution,
or acceptance will not (a) affect adversely the status of any REMIC created
hereunder as a REMIC or of the interests therein other than the Residual
Certificates as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the distribution of
interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the encumbrance of the
assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause any REMIC created hereunder to be
subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.
SECTION 9.03 Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and
Loss of REMIC Status.
(a) In the event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a
REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and the
Trust Fund against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer
shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction
of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as
applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by
the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Servicer has relied. The
foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of
the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer
have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance
with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly
permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising
out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set
forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to
Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the
Certificates).
(b) In the event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a
REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Trustee shall indemnify the Trust Fund against
any and all Losses resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or
inaction of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual
Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the
Trustee has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the
rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Trustee have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties
and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential
damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates).
ARTICLE X
TERMINATION
SECTION 10.01 Termination.
(a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of
the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee created hereby (other than the
obligation of the Trustee to make certain payments to Certificateholders after
the final Distribution Date and the obligation of the Servicer to send certain
notices as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon notice to the Trustee
upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate
Principal Balances of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero, (ii)
the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust,
(iii) the optional purchase by the Terminator of the Mortgage Loans as described
below and (iv) the Distribution Date in May 2035. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21
years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X.
Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's,
living on the date hereof.
The Servicer (in such context, the "Terminator"), may, at its
option, terminate this Agreement on any date on which the aggregate of the
Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to
scheduled payments of principal due during the related Due Period, to the extent
received or advanced, and unscheduled collections of principal received during
the related Prepayment Period) on such date is equal to or less than 10% of the
aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans on the Cut-off Date,
by purchasing, on the next succeeding Distribution Date, all of the outstanding
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties at a price equal to the greater of (i) the
Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to scheduled
payments of principal due during the related Due Period, to the extent received
or advanced, and unscheduled collections of principal received during the
related Prepayment Period) and the appraised value of the REO Properties and
(ii) fair market value of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties (as determined
and as agreed upon as of the close of business on the third Business Day next
preceding the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to the
related Certificateholders pursuant to Section 10.01(c) by (x) the Servicer, if
it is the Terminator, (y) the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in
the Class C Certificates and (z) if the Adjustable-Rate Certificates will not
receive all amounts owed to it as a result of the termination, the Trustee,
provided that if this clause (z) applies to such determination, such
determination shall be based solely upon an appraisal obtained as provided in
the last sentence of this paragraph), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon
at the weighted average of the Mortgage Rates through the end of the Due Period
preceding the final Distribution Date plus unreimbursed Servicing Advances,
Advances, any unpaid Servicing Fees allocable to such Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties and any accrued and unpaid Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts (the
"Termination Price"); provided, however, such option may only be exercised if
the Termination Price is sufficient to result in the payment of all interest
accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to retire the principal balance of,
each class of notes issued pursuant to the Indenture. If the determination of
the fair market value of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties shall be required
to be made and agreed upon by the Servicer, if it is the Terminator, the Holders
of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates and the Trustee
as provided in (ii) above, such determination shall be based on an appraisal of
the value of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties conducted by an independent
appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, if it is the Terminator, the
Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates and the
Trustee in their reasonable discretion, and (A) such appraisal shall be obtained
at no expense to the Trustee and (B) the Trustee may conclusively rely on, and
shall be protected in relying on, such appraisal.
In connection with any such purchase pursuant to the preceding
paragraph, the Terminator shall deposit in the Distribution Account all amounts
then on deposit in the Collection Account, which deposit shall be deemed to have
occurred immediately preceding such purchase.
Any such purchase shall be accomplished by deposit into the
Distribution Account on the Servicer Remittance Date before such Distribution
Date of the Termination Price.
(b) Notice of any termination, specifying the
Distribution Date (which shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution
Date) upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the
Trustee for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given
promptly by the Trustee upon the Trustee receiving notice of such date from the
Terminator, by letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 15th
day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of
such final distribution specifying (1) the Distribution Date upon which final
distribution of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of
such Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein designated, (2)
the amount of any such final distribution and (3) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made
only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or agency
of the Trustee therein specified.
(c) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates,
the Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates on
the Distribution Date for such final distribution, in proportion to the
Percentage Interests of their respective Class and to the extent that funds are
available for such purpose, an amount equal to the amount required to be
distributed to such Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01
for such Distribution Date. By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the
Holders of the Residual Certificates agree, in connection with any termination
hereunder, to assign and transfer any amounts in excess of the par value of the
Mortgage Loans, and to the extent received in respect of such termination, to
pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
(d) In the event that all Certificateholders shall not
surrender their Certificates for final payment and cancellation on or before
such final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall promptly following such date
cause all funds in the Distribution Account not distributed in final
distribution to Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the
remaining Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate Servicing
Account for the benefit of such Certificateholders, and the Servicer (if the
Servicer has exercised its right to purchase the Mortgage Loans) or the Trustee
(in any other case) shall give a second written notice to the remaining
Certificateholders, to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive
the final distribution with respect thereto. If within nine months after the
second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Residual Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed
funds and other assets which remain subject hereto, and the Trustee upon
transfer of such funds shall be discharged of any responsibility for such funds,
and the Certificateholders shall look to the Residual Certificateholders for
payment.
SECTION 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event that the Terminator exercises its
purchase option as provided in Section 10.01, each REMIC shall be terminated in
accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee shall
have been furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure of
the Trust to comply with the requirements of this Section will not (i) result in
the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as defined in
Section 860F of the Code or (ii) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding:
(i) Within 90 days prior to the final Distribution Date,
the Terminator shall adopt and the Trustee shall sign a plan of
complete liquidation of each REMIC created hereunder meeting the
requirements of a "Qualified Liquidation" under Section 860F of the
Code and any regulations thereunder; and
(ii) At or after the time of adoption of such a plan of
complete liquidation and at or prior to the final Distribution Date,
the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Fund to the
Terminator for cash pursuant to the terms of the plan of complete
liquidation.
(b) By their acceptance of Certificates, the Holders
thereof hereby agree to appoint the Trustee as their attorney in fact to: (i)
adopt such a plan of complete liquidation (and the Certificateholders hereby
appoint the Trustee as their attorney in fact to sign such plan) as appropriate
and (ii) to take such other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably
required to carry out such plan of complete liquidation all in accordance with
the terms hereof.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
SECTION 11.01 Amendment.
This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee; and without the consent of the
Certificateholders (i) to cure any ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement any
provisions herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other
provisions herein (iii) to amend the provisions of Section 3.22(b) or (iv) to
make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under
this Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement; provided that such action shall not, as evidenced by either (a) an
Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee or (b) written notice to the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee from each Rating Agency that such action
will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding
Class of Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating Agency, adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder. No
amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder who shall have consented thereto, and no
Opinion of Counsel or Rating Agency confirmation shall be required to address
the effect of any such amendment on any such consenting Certificateholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor written notice
to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee from the Rating Agencies will be
required in connection with an amendment to the provisions of Section 3.22(b).
In addition, this Agreement may be amended from time to time
by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Majority
Certificateholders for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided,
however, that no such amendment or waiver shall (x) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, payments on the Certificates or distributions
which are required to be made on any Certificate without the consent of the
Holder of such Certificate, (y) adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates (as evidenced by either
(i) an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee or (ii) written notice to the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee from each Rating Agency that such action
will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding
Class of Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating Agency) in a manner
other than as described in clause (x) above, without the consent of the Holders
of Certificates of such Class evidencing at least a 66% Percentage Interest in
such Class, or (z) reduce the percentage of Voting Rights required by clause (y)
above without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then
outstanding. Upon approval of an amendment, a copy of such amendment shall be
sent to the Rating Agencies.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement
unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel, delivered by (and at
the expense of) the Person seeking such Amendment, to the effect that such
amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any REMIC created
hereunder constituting part of the Trust Fund pursuant to the REMIC Provisions
or cause any REMIC created hereunder constituting part of the Trust to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding and that
the amendment is being made in accordance with the terms hereof.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee
shall furnish, at the expense of the Person that requested the amendment if such
Person is the Servicer (but in no event at the expense of the Trustee),
otherwise at the expense of the Trust, a copy of such amendment and the Opinion
of Counsel referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph to the Servicer
and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment; instead it shall be sufficient if such consent shall
approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of
evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders
shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any
amendment pursuant to this Section 11.01 that affects its rights, duties and
immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
SECTION 11.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is
subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property
records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or
all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other
appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be
effected by the Servicer at the expense of the Trust, but only upon direction of
Certificateholders accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the
Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this
Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be
executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 11.03 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.
The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not (i)
operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, (ii) entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the
Trust, or (iii) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them.
Except as expressly provided for herein, no Certificateholder
shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation
and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall
anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be
construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as
partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under
any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties
to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default
and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have
made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or
proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the
Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses
and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 15 days
after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have
neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. It is
understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with
every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or
preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under
this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of the provisions of this Section 11.03 each and every Certificateholder and the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws

York, and each party irrevocably waives any objection which it may have at any
time to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating hereto brought in any such courts, irrevocably waives any claim that
any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought
in any inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waives the right to object,
with respect to such claim, suit, action or proceeding brought in any such
court, that such court does not have jurisdiction over such party, provided that

binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by

loan or "predatory" mortgage loan or any other comparable term, no matter how

F. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the remedies
available to the Assignor, the Assignee and the Trust (including the Trustee and

hereof shall be as set forth in Subsection 7.03 of the Purchase Agreement as if
they were set forth herein (including without limitation the repurchase and
indemnity obligations set forth therein).
G. Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of a breach by the
Assignor of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Assignor under
the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially
adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders, and if either (i) such Mortgage Loan is not in breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Company or (ii) the Company has
failed to remedy such representation, warranty or covenant with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, then the Assignor shall cure such breach or shall repurchase or
substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of such discovery or
receiving notice (or in the case of (ii) above within 30 days following the
expiration of the Company's 90 day remedy period) in the manner contemplated in
Section 2.03 of Pooling Agreement.

FORM OF TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT FOR RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES
PURSUANT TO SECTION 5.02(D)
SOUNDVIEW HOME LOAN TRUST 2005-DO1
ASSET-BACKED CERTIFICATES, SERIES 2005-DO1
STATE OF )
) ss:
COUNTY OF )
The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as
follows:
1. The undersigned is an officer of, the proposed Transferee of an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate (the "CERTIFICATE") issued pursuant
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 15, 2005 (the
"AGREEMENT"), among Financial Asset Securities Corp., as depositor (the
"DEPOSITOR"), Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP as servicer (the "SERVICER")
and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the "TRUSTEE").
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein or in Exhibit 1 hereto, shall
have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has
authorized the undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee
for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee.
2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the
date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its
Ownership Interest in the Certificate for its own account. The Transferee has no
knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax
will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for
the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that
such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will
be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any time
during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. The
Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an
affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through
entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (For this
purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a regulated investment company, a real
estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate,
and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations,
persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another
Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the
Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the
restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the
Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and
to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Agreement and the
restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands
and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall
render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be
Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit L to the Agreement (a "TRANSFEROR Certificate") to the
effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to which the
Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.
7. The Transferee has historically paid its debts as they have come
due, intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future, and understands
that the taxes payable with respect to the Certificate may exceed the cash flow
with respect thereto in some or all periods and intends to pay such taxes as
they become due. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to
the Certificate.
8. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is ___________.
9. The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code Section
7701(a)(30).
10. The Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be a "noneconomic
residual interest" within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations
promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic
residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the
income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer
was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
11. The Transferee will not cause income from the Certificate to be
attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the
meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other U.S.
person.
12. Check one of the following:
[_] The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities
associated with holding the Certificate, as applicable, does
not exceed the sum of:
(i) the present value of any consideration given to the Transferee
to acquire such Certificate;
(ii) the present value of the expected future distributions on such
Certificate; and
(iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated
with holding such Certificate as the related REMIC generates
losses.
For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Transferee is assumed to pay
tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but
the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the
highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Transferee has been
subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the
preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable
year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are
computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed
by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding
period used by the Transferee.
[_] The transfer of the Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,
(i) the Transferee is an "eligible corporation," as defined in
U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to
which income from the Certificate will only be taxed in the
United States;
(ii) at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the
Transferee's two fiscal years preceding the year of the
transfer, the Transferee had gross assets for financial
reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person
related to the Transferee within the meaning of U.S. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100
million and net assets in excess of $10 million;
(iii) the Transferee will transfer the Certificate only to another
"eligible corporation," as defined in U.S. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that
satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii)
and (iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of the U.S. Treasury
Regulations; and
(iv) the Transferee determined the consideration paid to it to
acquire the Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions
(including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment
rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and
reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific
to the Transferee) that it has determined in good faith.
[_] None of the above.
13. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to
Title I of ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan
subject to any Federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to
Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and the Transferee is not acting
on behalf of or investing plan assets of such a plan.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Transferee has caused this instrument to be
executed on its behalf, pursuant to authority of its Board of Directors, by its
duly authorized officer and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, duly
attested, this day of , 20 .
